Hi! I'm very sorry that I haven't updated in a bit, I have just not thought of anything! Anyway, hopefully I'll be able to write this AND another chapter for Mending Hearts. It just depends how long Writer's Block can last on it! I'm very sorry I haven't updated that in so long as well. Please read and review this!

"So Mon, I was wondering if ya wanted to go baby shopping with me today? You don't know if it's a boy or a girl so I was thinking we go for a neutral colour like yellow!"

"Oh, sorry Rach... I was actually going with Chandler after lunch... But you're welcome to come with us..."

"Oh, no... That's okay," Rachel felt slightly upset that her friend was with Chandler more than her.

Monica bit her lip, was she spending too much time with Chandler?

At that moment Chandler bounced into the apartment carrying a bag and grinning widely. "Hey Mon, hey Monica, Hey there Monnie!" He held out his arms and hugged his best friend excitedly, handing her the bag. He kissed the bump on her stomach gently.

"Erm, hey Chandler!" Surprised as he handed her the bag. "What's this?"

"Open it!"

Monica peered inside and pulled out a yellow bib with red curly writing across it that said 'My Mummy Loves Me!'

"Awh thank you Chandler! You really didn't need to; I mean we are going shopping today, right?"

"Yeah, I guess I just saw this in a passing store and couldn't resist!"

"Well anyway, I guess we should have lunch and then we can set off!"

"Yeah! That'd be great!"

"Oooh! Mon, look! If Ross had another kid he would definitely have to wear that!" Chandler pointed at a green baby grow with the words 'I'm an Adorable-O-Saur-us!' and a picture of a red stegosaurus underneath.

Monica laughed slightly as she put a light blue rattle into the trolley. "Come on Chan," Monica tugged on his arm gently towards s display of prams. "Look at that one! It matches the bib you bought before!" Monica jumped up and down excitedly and Chandler smiled at the sight of his friend.

Soon they were at the till and the cashier smiled before they left and said," You two are gonna make the greatest parents, you're the cutest couple!"

"Oh, we're just friends," Monica blushed slightly. Did she and Chandler really look like a couple? Lots of people had commented that they were cute together. She smiled slightly at the thought of Chandler being her boyfriend. Would it be so bad if they were a couple? She shook her head slightly. No Monica, she told herself. You can't fall in love with Chandler, he will never think of you like that!

"Oh well, good luck!"The cashier turned away, embarrassed.

"Wow, we must really look like a couple Mon," Chandler commented as they sat down in Central Perk, laden with shopping bags. "What would you like?"

"Decaf, it's probably better for the baby!"

Chandler nodded and proceeded to Gunther. Monica smiled as she leant back on the couch and looked over at Chandler, her face turning red. Why did she keep thinking about him as more than a friend? Maybe it was her hormones going crazy. She sighed slightly, imagining how it would be to kiss Chandler. She shut her eyes really tight and scolded herself, Monica pull yourself together!

Monica and the rest of the gang were sat in her apartment later that evening. Monica was trying to help Rachel who was attempted to cook as lasagne. Finally it was in the oven and Rachel was smiling, proudly. Monica shook her head slightly, standing up.

Suddenly she heard a knock on the door and she opened it, cautiously. It was Richard. She opened her mouth to say hello but was cut off when he kissed her hard on the lips. She gasped for breath and pulled away, startled.

"R-Richard? W-What are you doing here?"

"Monica, I'm sorry we broke up. I'm sorry, I'm so sorry. I've tried to forget you, really I have! Please, at least try and forgive me? I was a fool. I should never have let you go...Please Monica. I still lo-"

Monica placed a finger to his lips, shaking her head. "We've been through this Richard. I just... I just can't do this right now. I jus-"She was cut off by another of his kisses. She pushed him away and pointed out of the door. "Please, just go."

"Monica, don't do this. Think about the baby. Do you really want it growing up without a dad? At least think about us. Don't tell me you don't still love me 'cause I know you do Monica." He placed a hand on her cheek, caressing it softly.

Monica closed her eyes as she felt tears rolling down her cheeks. "Please, just leave Richard. It's over."
