Chapter 12: Is He A Match
Chandler sighed softly as he looked at his friends. Ross sat in a chair with Rachel on his lap. Joey sat in the corner eating chips from the vending machine and Phoebe sat beside him her head on his shoulder. They all insisted on staying to find out if Charles would be a match. He told them they didn't have to stay but he was glad they stayed if his dad wasn't a match he would need them. Deep down he prayed his father was the match he needed he had too much to live for. Chandler gently brushed a few strands of hair out of Monica's face as he watched her sleep curled up beside him, his arms around her.
Ross glanced at his best friend watching Monica sleep. "Hey man you okay" he whispered "Uh yeah I guess" Chandler replied "What if my dad's not a match" he whispered "Well then we keep looking until we find one" Ross answered " What if that never happens Ross wh...what about Mon and the baby" tears filled his eyes as he looked at Monica's beautiful face as she smiled in her sleep cuddling closer to him. "Wow" Ross whispered "You uh, you really love my sister huh" He nodded "More than anything in this world" he whispered "I…I don't want to hurt her Ross, I…I don't want to leave her alone to raise our baby" he gently set his hand on her stomach. "I…I tried to let her down easy, to find someone else but sh…she wouldn't do it she only wanted to be with me"
"Of course she does Chandler" Rachel whispered, "She loves you, she has since the first time she met you" she said "I'd loved her since then too" he admitted. "Really but I thought you called her fat" Joey asked "I did but that was only because I didn't know what to do with my feelings I mean she was my best friend's little sister" he told him. "You really liked her when she was fat" Phoebe asked "Well yeah she had the most beautiful blue eyes and the prettiest smile and she was so sweet with a big heart she'd just met me and offered to make me Mac and Cheese" he said. "Aww that's so sweet" Phoebe grinned, "It's so cool that you two finally got together" she added
"Not its not Pheebs I…I shouldn't have let this happen" tears rolled down his face as she watched Monica. "Why wouldn't you want this to happen" Rachel asked, "I thought you loved her" Chandler nodded "I do but all I've done is mess up her life" he whispered "How have you ruined her life Chandler all I see is a Monica that hasn't been this happy since they came out with double stuff Oreos" He couldn't help smiling a little at her joke. "Yeah but we sleep together one time I get her pregnant and now I might die leaving her alone with a kid" he looked at Ross "Don't you want to kick my ass for hurting your little sister"
"Chandler you haven't hurt her okay" Ross answered "I mean I'll admit when you said you guys had something to tell us and Joey said maybe you'd hooked up I was a little mad but I couldn't stay mad when I saw the way you looked at her and held her I knew you loved her and would never hurt her" he said "Yeah but, what if I" Ross stopped him "Chandler even if the worst does happen You've given Mon a way to hold on to you forever" Phoebe nodded "That's right it was no accident you two slept together that night Mon was meant to get pregnant"
Chandler rolled his eyes "Okay Pheebs if you say so" He looked at his four best friends "Guys I…I want you to promise me if I'm not here to take care of Mon and the baby th…that you'll take care of them for me" he whispered "We promise Mon will never be alone she and the baby will always be taken care of" Ross said softly. Rachel, Joey and Phoebe all agreed. The four of them hugged Candler carefully so they wouldn't wake Monica.
Charles and Dr. Kovach walked in. "I uh, I hope we're not interrupting" Charles asked. "Dad" Chandler whispered when he saw his father standing there with the doctor. "So uh what's happening" he asked. "Well" Dr. Kovach smiled "Its good news" he said, "Your father is a match," he told him. "Oh my God" Chandler said shocked 'Ar…are you sure" he asked; "I'm positive," the doctor answered. The sounds of all his friends' happiness woke Monica. 'What's going on" she whispered sitting up. Chandler smiled "My dad's a match Mon" he said softly. Tears filled Monica's eyes as she threw her arms around him "Thank God" she cried softly hugging him tight. She noticed Charles standing quietly observing them. "Thank you" she mouthed to him. He smiled and nodded. He was happy he'd be able to help his son.
