Chapter 7: Home sweet home!

About a month after Monica and Chandler have moved into their new house everything is going well, The house is about an hour away from the city so the gang don't hang out as much as they did before, but they atill speak on the phone every day. Scene opens in Emma's bedroom. The walls are painted purple with her nightstand next to her bed, The room is very neat it is clear that Emma is not messy in there. Emma is in the room painting her toe-nals and listening to music, Monica knocks on the door and enters the room.

Emma: Hi mom, What do you want to need or borrow?

Monica: What makes you think I want to borrow something?

Emma: Thats what you usually want when you come into my room.

Monica: Oh well nothing. I wanted to talk to you.

Emma: Go ahead, I'm listening.

Monica: Do you want to go shopping tomorrow with me?

Emma: Is Ella coming too?

Monica: No, Ella is going to grandpa and Grandma's.

Emma: Then, Yeah I would like to go shopping with you.

Monica: Sounds good, I will get Rachel a gift certificate from there for her birthday.

Emma: Thats not for ages yet.

Monica: I like to be organised.

Emma: So do I, Now I know where I get that from.

Monica: You have been living with us for like 2 mnths and you only just figiured that out?

Emma: No, I knew I got from somewhere just didn't think about where.

Monica: Alright then.

Emma: Oh, and when I was in the little drug store last time I saw dad in there. He was buying cigarettes.

Monica: Thanks for the information there Emma, He is in so much trouble.

Emma: Okay then. Shouldn't we go get dinner ready?

Monica: Yes.

Monica and Emma leave Emma's bedroom and shut the door. Later that night it is just Monica in the Living room reading a magazine. Ella is aseep in her Nursery, Emma is in her bedroom and Chandler had to go back out to work he will be back soon. Chandlr sneaks into the room and stands behind Monica.

Monica: Wow, thats interesting.

Chandler: Who you talking to sweetie?

Monica: Don't do that.

Chandler: Sorry, Goes around and sits on the sofa next to Monica. It is just us tonight I'm guessing.

Monica: The girls are upstairs, I need to talk to you though!

Chandler: What about?

Monica: You are smoking again!

Chandler: WHAT! No I'm not.

Monica: Then why did Emma see you buying Cigarettes last week at the little drug store down the street.

Chandler: Okay I am, But I'm going through a lot at the moment.

Monica: So am I! I think Emma hates Ella!

Chandler: Why?

Monica: When Iasked her to go shopping tomorrow, she asked if Ella was going and when I said no she looked very happy and after that I said that Emma can get an outfit for Ella's birthday party next week she just was like oh okay then.

Chandler: I'm sure she loves her, Emma is at the age where she hates everything and everyone.

Monica: Are you sure?

Chandler: I'm positive sweetie.

Monica: Okay then, How was your day?

Chandler: Boring, I am glad that I'm home.

Monica: I'm glad you are home too.

Chandler: Really!

Monica: Yes! Did you like the dinner tonight?

Chandler: It was nice, Different from what you usually cook for us!

Monica: Was that good or bad?

Chandler: Definteley good I like to have a change once in a while.

Monica: Doesn't everyone!

Chandler: Yeah, I suppose so. You don't mean for everything do you?

Monica: Mmmmm nope! I am going to ask Emma about it tomorrow.

Chandler: If you have to dear!

Monica: I do have to.

The scene closes and opens again we see Monica and Emma in the middle of a mall, With lots of bags of clothes and accessories of what they bought.

Emma: Where do you want to go next Mom?

Monica: How about we get some food then go and shop on the second floor.

Emma: Sounds good to me, What do you want to eat?

Monica: Italian sounds good to me.

Emma: Me too!

Monica: Yesterday when I asked you to come shopping with me, Why did you ask if Ella was coming?

Emma: I just wanted to know who was going with us.

Monica: Do you not like your sister or something?

Emma: Yes, I love her. It is jus sometimes she ruins things that we have planned.

Monica: What does she ruin Emma?

Emma: Well she ruined the last day we were supposed to have together so I ended up going with Aunt Rachel.

Monica: I can't help it if Ella gets sick and I have to stay at home with her. Are you upset becuase spend more time with Ella?

Emma: Yes I am. Why can't you spend more time with me?

Monica: She needs lots of attention becuse she is only a baby and you are older so I thought you would understand.

Emma: I do! I just want more time with you alone. To talk about stuff and hang out.

Monica: We can do that Emma, We are doing that now.

Emma: You don't even know what I like and what things interest me.

Monica: Then why don't you ever tell me you want time alone with me.

Emma: Because I always get interupted by Ella or something else.

Monica: I'm sorry that I don't spend much time with you, I will try to make more of an effort.

Emma: Thank you!

Monica: Although we do spend time together becuase I cook with you, I am your teacher you know.

Emma: I want time where you are not teaching me just where we are hanging out and doing what other mother and Daughters do.

Monica: I'm sorry, I am bad at this. I never have had a teenage daughter before.

Emma: God, I hope not. Can I ask you something?

Monica: Yes! What is it?

Emma: Are you and dad planning on having more kids?

Monica: Well, We are thinking about it but not until Ella is at least two. Why?

Emma: I was just wondering. Is that why you bought a house?

Monica: We bought a hose becuase dad got a raise and we could afford one at that moment in time. We didn't have much space in that appartment either since you moved in with us.

Emma: Oh! So you wasn't planning on me finding you then?

Monica: I knew that you would propably find me sooner or later I just didn't know that it would be when we already had a full house.

Emma: Alright then. When you do have more children will I end up sharing a bedroom with Ella?

Monica: No, I think you might have moved out by the time we need to have the kids sharing bedrooms anyway. Don't worry about it, It will be ages away and we do have a 5 bedroom house. There is like 2 rooms spare plus the spare room downstairs.

Emma: Okay then. I'm tired!

Monica: I am too. Should we start to finish shopping and head home now?

Emma: Yeah!

Emma and Moncia finish their shopping and go home, Later on Chandler is in the family room with Monica and Emma who are sitting there loking through the things the bought on their day out shopping. Ella is staying at Jack and Judy's for the night.

Monica: Wow we spent so much money today.

Chandler: You mean you sprent so much of my money today.

Monica: Whatever Chandler.

Emma: Thanks for buying me all this cool stuff dad.

Chandler: Thats okay sweetie, My baby needs to be treated once in a while.

Emma: I'm not a baby dad. Who's is this?

Monica: Thats mine! Thanks.

Emma: Sorry! Must have picked up your bag.

Monica: It is fine. I think I hear the phone, can you answer it please Emma?

Emma: Of course. Exits the room and the phone stops ringing becuase Emma has answered it.

Chandler: Did you talk to her about that thing with Ella?

Monica: Yes, She said she just wants to spend some time alone with me without Ella for once apparently.

Chandler: She spends everyday with you though.

Monica: Because Ella is in the house it is not us spending time alone.

Chandler: Alright then, Did you talk about much else?

Monica: She asked me why we moved and was it becuase we were having moe children and when that would be.

Chandler Wow, I should think not unti Ella is at least two.

Monica: That is what I said and also that we bought a house becuase it was the right tim for us and we had money to buy one.

Chandler: Yes thats true.

Emma comes back into the room with the phone in her hand.

Emma: Mom am I allowed to stay over at Phoebe and Joeys please?

Monica: Yeah! Why not?

Chandler: Of course you can.

Monica: Can I speak to Phoebe please?

Emma: Yes! into phone. here is mom.

Phoebe: Yes! I will get a Cab and then we will go to Central Perk and then to mine.

Moncia: That sounds fair, We will see you in about an hour then.

They hang up the phones and Emma goes out the room so she can pack her clothes for the night.

Monica: Look like it is just us tonight then.

Chandler: No, We just do it when they are asleep.

Monica: Yeah, Could do as long as we don't wake them up.
