hi, so here it is, the next chapter, sorry I haven't updated for ages, but I have been sooo busy. anyway, I hope you like it, plz review, follow and favourite
PREVIOUSLY- ...I cock the gun and am about to shoot when Monica steps in front of him and someone else moves the gun higher but not high enough, and because it happened so fast I can't do anything about it, the gun fires...
Monica's POV
"MONICA NOOOOO!" I hear both of them yell, before I fall down, and feel someone catch me from behind, I guest it must have been Chandler, then everything went dark.
Chandlers POV
"MONICA NOOOOO!" I yelled.
She fell into my arms, I was so scared and worried, I finally meet a girl I really like, and I go and get her pregnant and she gets shot.
I am so frustrated with Ross I start yelling at him.
"ROSS, I DIDNT DO IT TO GET BACK AT YOU, I DIDNT EVEN KNOW I'D DONE IT, SHE ONLY TOLD ME ABOUT THE BABY YESTERDAY..."
"BABY, WHAT BABY?" Phoebe yells but I ignore her and continue yelling at Ross.
"...I LOVE HER, AND I HATE YOU! SHE'S YOUR SISTER, YOU SHOT YOUR SISTER, THE SISTER I LOVE! EVEN IF YOU HAD SHOT ME WHAT WOULD THAT HAVE DONE, KILLED ME? THAT WOULD JUST RESULT IN YOUR NIECE OR NEFEW HAVING NO DAD, AND NEVER KNOWING HIM!"
Ross was frozen, the gun had fallen on the ground, my first thought was to grab it and shoot Ross but then I realized that wouldn't help anyone. I ran to the phone and called 911.
"Ambulance please," I say before the person can even ask what service I wanted.
"Ok just hang on a moment and I'll put you through," they say.
"I CAN'T HANG ON! THE LOVE OF MY LIFE WHO IS CARRYING MY CHILD, HAS JUST BEEN SHOT!"
"Just calm down a bit sir, here they are,"
"What did they say to that?" Asked Phoebe, who I had forgotten about, but was standing behind Ross(who was still frozen).
"They told me to calm down, didn't they hear what I said, how can I be calm?"
I turn my attention back to the phone, when a guy starts talking.
"Hello, what's your emergency?"
"HI, THE LOVE OF MY LIFE, WHO IS CARRYING MY CHILD, HAS JUST BEEN SHOT!" I repeat.
"Um ok, can u tell me all your details and someone will be there soon."
I told him everything, and hung up.
"Well?" Phoebe asked.
"They're on their way."
"Ok well I'll call Rachel." Phoebe said.
"Oh but please don't tell her or Joey about the baby, we would like to tell you all together," I explained what Monica and I had discussed.
I grabbed a pillow from my bed and lay her head on it then went over to Ross' bed and grabbed his pillow too and lay her head under as well. After this I went into the bathroom and wet two face washers then went back to Monica and dabbed one face washer on her face, and the other on her bullet wound.
5 minutes later
Knock knock knock
As soon as I heard the knock at the door I sprinted to the door hoping it was the paramedics, but when I opened it to find it was only Rachel.
"Oh, hi," I said disappointed.
"Where is she? Who shot her? Is she ok?" Rachel asked worried.
"She's over there, Ross shot her..." I gave a death stare, but eased up on him when I realized he still hadn't moved.
"...AND SHE'S BE SHOT OF COURSE SHE'S NOT OK, COULD SHE BE ANY LESS OK!" I yelled at her.
"Ok, ok, whats your problem? I'm just asking. I'm her best friend, I just wanted to know. Anyway, why does it matter to you so much more than to us, you're only her friend..." She said, then mumbled something that I think was and your crush but I'm not sure.
"BECAUSE...because it just does! Ok, it matters a lot to me!
"Ok, whatever."
I run back to Monica and continue dabbing her with the face washers.
Another 10 minutes later
"Hey Chandler, can I talk to you over here for a second?" Phoebe says as she ushers me over.
I give the face washers to Rachel, so she can take over, and go over to Phoebe.
"Follow me," Phoebe says leading me into the bathroom.
After we walk in and shut the door she starts speaking again.
"Ok, don't yell at me when I say this, because I'm saying it in a polite way, but how are you holding up?" Phoebe asks.
I feel really bad that she thinks I'm going to yell at her, since I don't want people to think of me as person who goes off at people for the slightest thing. I want to be the one who can be there for support and make jokes in bad situations.
"Yeah...Um, I'm just a bit stressed, but otherwise holding up, thanks for asking," I tell her as calmly as I can.
"Yeah, and why wouldn't you be stressed? Anyway I was wanting to talk to you about what you said before, You know about Monica carrying your baby?"
"Oh... I can't believe I said that. I just assumed Monica had told you since you drove her here, but obviously not. Um well..." I explain and stutter, getting really tense again.
"Chandler it's ok I know now, you don't need to formally tell me..." Phoebe informs me.
"...Um ok then," I stutter again.
"...YOU GUYS ARE HAVING A BABY TOGETHER!" She excitedly whispers as loudly as she can.
"ShShSh, Rachel will hear you!"
"No she won't, plus I needed to say it out loud, I'm so excited! This is huge!"
"I know it is..." I say with a smile while turning to my side about to kiss Monica, before realizing she isn't there.
"...Um anyway if that's all you wanted to say them I must be getting back to Monica," I say, about to open the door.
"No wait! I have some questions," Phoebe says, quickly putting the toilet seat down and pushing me onto it.
"Ok, what do you want to know?" I ask.
"Well first- when did it happen?"
"I'm not sure exactly?"
"What do you mean you're not sure? When did you 'do it'?" She asks.
"I don't know when it happened," I say, trying to hint to her what I meant.
"Oh...Ooh...OOHH!" She says when she realizes what I'm getting at.
"Uh huh," I confirm while nodding at her.
"So I guess that means my next question should be how many times have you two had..."
"If you are going to ask questions like that then I'm leaving," I interrupt.
"Why? What's wrong with that question?"
"Because it's not something you share with people."
"Well you could share it with me and then it would be something you share with people."
"PHOEBE, NO, it's private and personal," I yell, getting up again.
"Ok, ok," she said stopping me again.
"Are you going to keep it?"
"Yes, you know Monica, she has always wanted kids, she couldn't get rid of it, even though I'm not ready for kids, I wouldn't make her get rid of it, I love her and want her to be happy."
"Naw, sweet... Are you going to propose?"
"Um... Ah... I don't know, I haven't even thought of it, I don't want to make her think I'm doing it just because we are having this baby."
"But you do love her don't you?"
"So much, I would have taken that bullet if it meant she would have been fine."
"So what's the problem then, when she wakes up propose."
"Well, um I don't know, only if she wants me to."
"She will, trust me, the other thing she has always wanted besides kids is marriage," Phoebe ensured.
"Yeah, ok... Anyway, any more questions?" I ask, trying to change the subject.
"No, you can go now," she said as she opened the door and left me alone.
I waited a few seconds after she left, before getting up and joining the others.
I went back to Monica and was about to take over from Rachel again.
Knock knock knock
Again I ran as fast as I could to the door and opened it. This time I saw a woman and 2 men in blue uniforms with a cross on their arms, the 2 men were holding a stretcher and the woman was holding a bag.
"Can we come in?" One of the ones holding the stretcher asked.
"Yes, she's over there on the floor," I said pointing to Monica.
They all ran over to her. The stretcher holders lowered the stretcher and the bag holder pasted her bag to one of them and then stood up.
"Ok can everyone except relatives, partners and the one who made the call wait outside?" She asked.
Rachel and Phoebe both went outside.
"Ok, what's your relationship with the victim?" He asked me.
"I'm her boyfriend and father of the child she is carrying," I informed her.
"Are you the one who made the call?" She asked.
"Yes."
"What happened exactly?"
"Well Monica and I have been secretly dating for a couple of months..." I decided to start from the start and plus hopefully then they wouldn't slip out to the others about the baby.
"...The yesterday day she called me and wanted to talk to me in private, my room mate who is her brother, Ross, was visiting his girlfriends parents all weekend, so we arranged to meet up here. At first I thought she was going to break up with me, but instead she told me she was pregnant..." I continued.
"...Her brother came back today to have Sunday lunch at his parents place, like they do every second Sunday, I'm guessing that's when Monica decided to tell her family...When Ross heard about what had happened to his sister, he obviously lost it. One minute I was studying in here quietly, the next minute Ross was banging on the door yelling for me to let him in, at first I told him no, then he said he just wanted to talk. I stupidly let him in..."
"...He ran up to me and pulled out a gun, but Monica had followed him..." I said, almost in tears.
"...I couldn't do anything apart from stand there...He- he had already cocked it w-when sh..." I gulped, I was shaking all over.
"...When she j-jumped in front of me," this time I just lost it, I burst into tears.
"Sir, I know this is hard for you but you have to stay strong, for her. Is that her brother over there?" She asked pointing to Ross, who still stood as still as a statue.
"Uh huh," I nodded.
She walked over to him.
"Sir can you here me?" She asked.
He doesn't answer.
"What is your name?" She asked.
Again no reply. She got out a small torch and one of those things doctors put around your arm to check your pulse or something, from her bag, then went back to him. She shined the light in his eyes and then put the thing around his arm and tightened it.
"He must have gone into shock when he shot his sister, we can take a look at him down at the hospital, get him a drink and concealing if he needs it."
"We are ready to go now, you can either follow us in a car or ride with us in the ambulance, which do you prefer?" One of the others asked.
"I'll ride with you."
"By the way, could none of you mention to any of the other visitors about the baby?" I said making sure they don't.
"Yeah sure."
The 2 paramedics with the stretcher walked out of the room first, followed by me and then the other one with the bag and Ross.
"What's happening?" Phoebe asked.
"Well I'm going to ride in the ambulance with the paramedics, phoebe can you drive with Rachel and Ross behind, they said they can take a look at Ross when he is there, since he has gone into shock," I explained.
"Hang on, shouldn't Ross or me travel in the ambulance?" Rachel asked.
"Um, no, Ross is in enough shock as it is, and I was there when it happened so they said I should go," I lied.
"Ok, we will meet you there, I'll call Joey on the way," Phoebe said.
Half an hour later-at the hospital
Joey's POV
"Excuse me, could you tell me which room Monica Geller is in?" I ask.
"Joey, over here man," Chandler calls out.
I run over to him.
"Well, how is she?" I ask.
"She's in surgery at the moment."
I look around.
"Wait where's everyone else?" I ask confused.
"I don't know, I went in the ambulance, Phoebe was supposed to be following with Rachel and Ross in her cab, but they haven't shown up yet."
"Oh no, I hope nothing bad has happened. Hang on, why aren't you worried about them?"
"Well, I must be using up all my worrying on Monica."
"It will be alright man," I say trying to comfort him.
"You don't know that, no one knows that!" He yells.
"Hey guys," we hear someone say.
"Phoebe! What took you guys so long?" I ask.
"We had to stop for petrol, then we got lost, anyway we are here now," Phoebe explains.
"While you guys talk I'm going to sit Ross down then go get him a drink," Rachel says.
"Ok, I'll go with you, anyone else want anything?" I say.
"Yeah, can I have a coffee?" Chandler asks.
"Yeah sure, Phebes you want anything?" Rachel asks.
"Nah I'm fine."
Phoebe and Chandler walk over and sit on the waiting room seats.
About an hour later
Chandler's POV
I looked around the waiting room, Phoebe and Joey were asleep on each other and Rachel was flirting with a male nurse, the only other one apart from him who wasn't doing much was Ross, who was sitting there deep in thought sipping his coffee, he had calmed down a bit since 'the incident' but was still very shaken up by the whole thing. Just then Monica's doctor appears, I go over to Ross who was on the other side of Joey and Phoebe, I tap him on the shoulder and point towards the doctor. We stand up and walk over to him.
"So how is she?" I say anxiously.
"She's doing fine, we have removed the bullet from her collar, and have patched the wound up safely," he says.
"And the baby? What about the baby?" I ask.
"Well..."
