Hi there. Thank you for reading even though I mixed the chapters.
Disclaimer; I still don't own Friends, but I still wish that I did.
We've Had Our Story…
- But What Happened Then?
Chapter 14.
Philip
"Wow, you've really done a great job redecorating everything here." Shelly said, looking around Emma and Jack's new house.
Well, hardly new anymore, but they hadn't really had time to do anything with it before, because Sarah had been early, and then all the fuss that came with having her.
"Yeah, I'm really happy with it." Emma said, feeding Sarah with more baby food.
"I really love this kitchen."
"Hmm, me too. Even though I'm only eating in here. Jack is doing the cooking." Emma said.
"You don't cook that much, eh?"
"I cook for Sarah, Sam is already too big, she has an opinion now whether my food is good or bad."
Shelly laughed, "You really seem to have gotten yourself a home here, Ems."
"Yeah, why don't you guys look at a house out here too, and let the baby-less people live in the city? You could use it out here, I mean with a baby and everything…"
"Hey!" Shelly said, "I'm not pregnant yet."
"Not yet?" Emma asked.
"No, we have the same troubles as last time. It's hard for us to conceive, but I'm sure it'll come." Shelly said, "But maybe you're right. Ben will probably agree. It is lovely out here."
"Hmm," Emma said, "We just felt home like that." she snapped her fingers, "And the kids can learn to ride their bikes and stuff."
"Yeah, how's that going?"
"Sam is only 5 years. It's not interesting to her yet, but we're trying."
Shelly laughed again, "We really should move out here."

"Mom?" Gracie said, "You said at New Years that you had something to talk to me about. Why haven't we done that yet?"
"Hmm." Rachel said, looking up from her coffee, "Because I kinda regretted that."
"Why? What was it about?" Gracie said, "You're not like; wanting me to stop dating him or something, because that was what I feared."
"No-no" Rachel said, "I love JJ, it's just that…"
"That what?"
"I went out with his father. It's a little icky."
"You. went. out… with uncle Joey!?" Gracie exclaimed. She couldn't believe it.
"Yeah." Rachel said, "That's why I find it weird that our kids are going out."
"We're not just going out mom." Gracie said, taking her hand, "I love him. I really do, but ew, you're right. It is icky, but… that really wont hold me back."
"Okay." Rachel said, "I just wanted you to know it."
"Thank you." Gracie said, "I appreciate that."

A couple of weeks later.
"I can't believe we really have our own apartment now." Sandra said, looking around in Jack and Emma's the old one. They could buy it, which would mean that it was still in the family.
"It's unbelievable." Mike said, placing his hand on Sandra's belly.
She was rather big now.
Her due date was the next day, and she could hardly wait.
"I think we're gonna make a good home here." Sandra said.
"I really do too."

"So, how's the wedding plans coming?" Erica asked Sophie.
"They've not really begun yet. They were waiting for you to ask 'cause then they'd get some help." Sophie said.
"How lucky!" Erica said, throwing a bunch of magazines at the table, "'Cause I'm so ready to help!"
"Good." Sophie said, acting all giddy like Erica was at the moment.
"What kind of wedding dress would you like to wear?" Erica asked, searching for the page she'd seen one at, "Oh there it is! I really think you would look amazing in this one."
"Let me see." Sophie said, taking the magazine, "Wow come to mama."
"That great?"
"No, it was just the groom." Sophie said, pointing at him, "Look at those abs."
Erica laughed, "Sophie! You're an engaged woman now!"
"So?" Sophie tried.
"Well, you shouldn't be…" Erica trailed off, "Forget it. Do you like this dress?"
"Hmm." Sophie said, "I want something out of the ordinary."
"Of course you want something out of the ordinary." Erica said, "What else?"
Sophie's phone rang, and she picked it up, "Soph?" she listened, "Sure thing Mikey-dikey, I'll see you there."
"What?" Erica asked.
Sophie turned to look at her with an excited look at her face, "Sandra is having her baby." she said, closing her phone.
--
"Oh my God, I cant believe this!" Shelly said, bouncing up and down, "This is like thee best day ever!"
"Really?" Gracie asked.
"Yes!" Shelly said, "Cause Sandy is having a baby, and I'm pregnant again!"
"You are!?" Gracie smiled, "Congratulations!"
They hugged, "Wow, everything is happening so fast."
"I know." Shelly said, "I know."

"This is so exciting." Phoebe smiled to Alex.
"Yeah it is." Alex said, "My first grandchild. I feel so old."
"Aw come on, you're the youngest of us, at least."
"Oh, I hope they're having a boy." Alex said.
"Why?"
"Because if the baby turns out to be like Sandy, I'm gonna get crazy."
"I know the feeling." Phoebe said, "That's what they said about Sophie."
"Hey!" Sophie said, "I'm right over here."
"Oh, sorry Soph." Phoebe smiled.
"Yeah, I'll say."
--
"The baby is here! The baby is here!" Mike stormed into the room.
"It's what?" Mike senior asked.
"A boy." Mike said.
"What have you named it?" Joey asked.
"Well, Sandy is picking me about Mike the third, but nah-ah, I don't think so."
"Well, figure it out." Alex said.
"We already know." Mike said, "His name is Philip."
Yeah, well, fluffy chapter. There'll still be a little more fluff before the action begins. Leave a review. Thanks, Stessa. And I will be back soon with the RIGHT chapter this time :D
