Always, 6
INTRODUCTION: Not my best piece of work, but it continues where part 5 left
off.
DISCLAIMER: I don't own the "Friends" characters.
Monica felt the knot in her stomach grow tighter, as the news anchors kept
silent, not coming with any new updates. They were showing pictures taken from
a police helicopter or something, and just repeating the facts that they had
already stated.
A thousand different things were going through Monica's head. Fear, hope, guilt
and numerous other emotions along with uncountable thoughts.
She realized with a jab of pain that she now knew exactly what Chandler had
been talking about ever since her disease. And all her previous thoughts about
just taking the day as it came and all that, were gone. They were replaced by loads
of guilt, because she felt like she'd not loved Chandler at all as much as she
should have, and she sure hadn't let him know how much she loved him. Just as
Chandler had talked about, the fear of not realizing that until it was too
late…
She felt her nails hurting her palms as she clenched her hands even harder, but
she didn't mind, or even care. She knew she should stay calm, since the odds
were on her side, there was a low probability that Chandler had been one of the
so far seven dead , but at the same time she knew that somewhere in New York,
other people were thinking that same thought, and for seven of them it had to
be a lie.
"Hey Mon!" Chandler said, entering with Regina.
Monica looked up at him, just stared at him, not understanding anything. How
come he was all of a sudden in the apartment, and not at work? She was too
shocked to even be thankful at first, then she threw herself on the remote and
turned the TV on and then flew to her feet.
"Chandler!" she exclaimed. "You're, you're here! You're not at
work, you're here!"
"I know" Chandler said, confused. He didn't even seem to know that
his work was taken over by terrorists at the moment. And how come he wasn't
there?
"Oh thank god you're not at work, why aren't you at work?" she asked,
slowly letting the new shock sink in.
"Gina had a dental appointment, remember?" he said, hanging his and
Regina's jackets up. "We've been to the dentist."
"I didn't have any holes!" Regina bragged.
Monica didn't listen. She realized in a second two things, that she'd never
understood what it would feel like if Chandler was all of a sudden gone, and
that he was completely safe and hadn't been anywhere near his work in almost
two hours.
She hurried up to him, not even casting a glance at her daughter, and threw her
arms around him. She kissed him passionately, hungrily and needingly.
Chandler didn't understand what was going on, but he wasn't about to say no to
a kiss like that. He gently put his arms around her and kissed her back, more
softly.
Regina looked up at them and shook her head. Her parents' kissing habits were a
mystery to her, she didn't even understand why they wanted to lock their mouths
to each other like that at all. Both had their eyes closed and she could hear
small moaning sounds from them a few times. She shook her head again and went
off to her room to play.
Chandler finally ended the kiss very softly, and took a deep breath. He looked
down at Monica, who was staring right into his eyes, looking amazed.
"I have no idea what I did to deserve that, but my oh my do I hope I start
doing it often…" he said, breath taken. "I haven't gotten a kiss like
that in my entire life!"
"I'm just so glad you're here!" Monica said and kissed him on the
lips. "So very, very glad you're here…"
"I could tell" Chandler said with a chuckle.
Monica kissed him again, more eagerly this time, and pressed him even closer.
She wanted to feel that he really was there with her, alive and unharmed. And
Chandler was more than willing to be kissed and pressed close. He kissed her
back with all of his love, and enjoyed every second as much as he could. Monica
softly ended the kiss and felt an urge for more.
Chandler looked deep into her eyes and could read in them what she wanted from
him. He gave her a light kiss on the lips, the grinned at her.
"I love you in this mood…" he said. "But there is a
three-year-old in the next room. Wait until tonight."
"I don't want to wait" Monica said, kissing him hungrily. "I
can't wait!"
"Sorry my dear, but you're going to have to. Regina is right in the next
room, and she is awake."
Monica broke them embrace and went into Regina's room. She lifted her up and
carried her out in the living room. Chandler watched her, having no idea what
she was up to.
"Regina, sweetie, go across the hall to uncle Joey and tell him to follow
you to auntie Phoebe and auntie Rachel. And uncle Ross."
"Why?" Regina asked.
"Because I want you to tell them that daddy is home safe, okay? Could you
tell them that?"
"Okay!"
Monica put Regina down, and she ran across the hall to get her uncle Joey to
take her to her aunties and Uncle. Monica closed the door when she saw that
Regina was talking to Joey, and then turned to Chandler again.
"That I'm home safe?" he asked, looking like a question mark.
"What about Gina?"
"I'll tell you later, not now!" Monica said, and walked back into his
arms. She kissed him again and wanted nothing more than to go a bit further.
Chandler pressed her close and wanted the same thing. He couldn't figure out
exactly what was going on, but whatever it was he liked it. She hadn't been
this passionate and this eager for years. There was almost something desperate
over her kisses.
They went into the bedroom and kissed again. Monica just couldn't get enough.
She now knew what Chandler had been saying about feeling like you've gotten a
wakeup call, a scare, and feeling like you've gotten what matters the most to
you back.
"That was…" Chandler said afterwards, "intense. Absolutely
fabulous but so intense."
"You don't like intensity?" Monica asked, snuggling even closer.
"Sure I do. But it makes me wonder what exactly you were up to before I
got home."
Monica was quiet for a second. She didn't want to ruin the moment by telling
him the story, but she didn't want to lie to him.
"I was… watching TV. The news. Chandler, there's… well, there's this group
of terrorists that have taken over the building where you work."
"What?" Chandler said.
"Everybody in the building are being kept hostage and they've shot a few.
I don't know if I had forgotten about Regina's dental appointment or if I
didn't even know about it in the first place, but either way I thought that you
were in the building. And I was so scared, I had no idea weather or not you
were alive… or if you were hurt."
"Okay, man in shock!" Chandler said, sitting up in bed. "You,
you're telling me that people at my work are being held hostage, that you
thought I was too and that you'd forgotten about the dentist?"
"Just imagine how I felt when you got home…" Monica said with a slight
smile. "You probably felt it."
"Yeah, your actions were speaking pretty clearly…" he mumbled.
"So… Mon, what, I mean, this terrorist thing, what exactly is going
on?"
"I don't even know that" Monica said. "All I know is that you're
safe. That you could have been dead or hurt, but you're not, you are here with
me! And Chandler, now I understand everything!"
"Everything what?"
"Everything you have been saying since my cancer… everything you have been
feeling… The thing you've talked about, being on the brink of loosing someone
and realizing that you've not loved that person enough or showed that person
your love enough… I felt all of that today. And I realized for the first time
what you've really been doing these years, what your real… motive… has been."
Chandler wiped of a few tears that had fallen down her cheeks and then kissed
her gently.
"I honestly knew that you didn't understand before…" he said softly.
"But I think you need something like this to make you open your eyes and
see."
"I know" Monica whispered and kissed him lovingly.
Chandler leaned back down on her and concentrated on her completely. Slowly he
made love to her again, and afterwards he held her tight as she slept for a
short while. He had to shake her awake and remind her that their daughter could
be home in any second, and they got out of bed together.
Regina came back home thirty minutes later together with the others, who had
realized that Monica and Chandler probably had wanted some time alone.
Chandler hugged them back when they put their arms around him, but he felt a
bit distant. People he knew were after all in that building, and people he knew
might be dead.
He sat on the couch together with Rachel and Ross and watched the news special
in silence. Phoebe took Regina to play in her room, to keep her away from the
story on the news, and Joey helped Monica cook dinner. All six of them spoke as
little as possible, yet the mood didn't feel tense.
Regina came back out from the living room and looked around, then placed her hands
on her hips.
"Why is everyone so quiet?" she asked. "What are you watching on
TV?"
"Sports" the adults immediately answered in one voice. Regina hated
sports.
The child eyed them, then went back to play with Phoebe.
*
After that incident, things were different. Chandler was no longer the only one
who'd had the scare of a close call, and Monica reacted almost the same way as
Chandler had. All of a sudden they were both just as eager to show their
feelings for each other and never let the other one or themselves forget. But
Monica quickly decided that they had to be careful, otherwise they would both
end up being like Chandler had been the year before.
It seemed easier for the two to avoid that together than it had been for
Chandler to do it alone, and he soon realized that it was probably because this
time he felt like she was on his side. Earlier on she hadn't know what he knew
and she hadn't felt things the way he had. That hade forced him to devote more
energy to her, because then she hadn't know what it was he was doing, really.
But now she knew.
They both started to spend their time together more intensely. When they were
down at the coffee house Monica mostly sat in Chandler's lap, to get more
closeness, and the same thing whenever they were on a couch together. They
didn't seem to be able to get enough of the physical contact, because both felt
as if they showed the other one their love just by touching them.
They seemed to be doing everything with a little more intensity, weather it was
cooking dinner or kissing. They both knew that they might loose what they had,
and they both wanted to make sure that they spent the time they had together
loving each other and their daughter as much as they could. They stopped
keeping secrets from each other, and if they had any complains on the other one
they said it right away. They didn't want any mistakes or misunderstandings
between them anymore.
A year went by, and after a few months Chandler and Monica toned it down a
little. Monica remembered what she'd thought earlier about finding a middle
road, and talked to Chandler about it. They were both scared that one of them
or both of them would get sick of it or feel trapped because of the intensity.
Instead of giving 110% to each other all the time, they let the most of it be
unsaid. They soon found that that way worked much better, since the deepest
feeling are hard to put into words anyway. And they went back to just sitting
really close to each other instead of sitting in each other's lap. But neither of
them forgot their close calls in the past, and when they were alone in their
bedroom they acted as if nothing existed except for them. They talked for a
long time almost every night, and slept close together.
*
Chandler was in bed with a newspaper. It was March, and quite dark outside. He
yawned slightly and came across the article he had been looking for.
Monica got into bed next to him without a word. She scooted over to him and lay
down in her usual manner with her head on his shoulder and her arm on his
chest. She glanced at the paper.
"Whatc'ha reading?"
"A review of my mother's latest book…" Chandler mumbled, reaching for
his glasses on the nightstand. "It apparently takes place in ancient
Greece. Looks like my mother's taken a hint from Jean M Auel…"
"Or any other author who's written about times BC" Monica said with a
chuckle. She sighed content and closed her eyes.
Chandler moved his right arm so that it was around her instead of by her face.
It was more comfortable that way. He finished reading the review, but kept the
paper in his hands for a while, while his mind got lost in thought.
He took a quick glance at his wife, who seemed to be close to sleeping. He
remembered before she had gotten sick, how she always used to snuggle up to him
like she'd done now when they were going to sleep. He remembered how he often
let her drift off, and then rolled her over to her own side. It had now been
two years since the last time he'd slept without touching her in any way. He
realized that he had forgotten what it was like to go to sleep without someone
in your arms or with an arm around you.
Monica was also lost in thought. She was as usual overwhelmed by the love she
was feeling, and the love she was receiving. And she was very thankful that he
was there with her. She rarely fell asleep in any other way than she was laying
right now, and she realized with a smile that it had been a long time since her
head had rested on a pillow.
She knew that their friends sometimes wished that they would both take some
distance from each other, but they didn't know what she and Chandler knew.
There was something so special about the way they were feeling when they were
together, or just thinking about the other one. His love had even made her
almost forget about the fact that she was most likely sterile. She hadn't even
bothered to check if she really was, since she didn't feel like it mattered.
She wanted another baby, another little person to love and to raise, but she
knew she would have a great life even without one. She had her daughter and she
had her husband and that was all she seemed to need.
Chandler stared at the ceiling and stroke her right shoulder. He wished she
would let her hair grow long again. She had kept it short, never growing longer
than her shoulders, ever since Regina had been born, and he thought she looked
great in that hairstyle. But he missed having her long hair to play with and to
run his fingers through. He thought about telling her that he would like her to
let it grow long again, but then changed his mind.
Regina, on the other hand, had never had short hair once her hair had grown
past her chin. Monica only let her hair get cut a few centimetres each time,
and by now Regina's hair was down by her waist. Monica seemed to get her lust to
comb long hair and make new hairstyles out of it satisfied by experimenting on
Regina's hair, and Regina didn't seem to mind at all. Chandler knew that Monica
probably wasn't very interested in letting it grow long again.
He took his glasses off and carefully placed them on the nightstand along with
the paper. He closed the lights and put his left arm around Monica as well, and
heard on her breath that she was asleep.
*
Monica whistled to herself and let her hair down. It was August, two weeks
after Regina's fourth birthday and around six weeks after hers and Chandler's
sixth anniversary. She had started to let her hair grown long again, and her
hair had always grown fast. It reached down to her shoulders by now and she had
started to wear it in pony tails again to get it out of her face.
She cast a glance at the clock and gave a slight thought to dinner. She wasn't
in the mood for food. She felt slightly nauseous. Regina had had the stomach
flue three days earlier, and Monica was just waiting for when she would get it
herself. Chandler had had it the next day but so far Monica had managed to stay
well.
She rose and went into the kitchen, where she found a note from Chandler. He'd
stayed home from work to recover from his stomach flue and had decided to take
Regina out for a pizza when Monica ran a little late.
Monica shrugged her shoulders and thought that maybe she should be staying home
from work as well since she wouldn't want to spread stomach flue at a
restaurant. She went over to the kitchen table and picked up some leftover
lasagne. The person who had ordered it had gotten into a fight with her date
and left before the food arrived. Instead of throwing it away, Monica had
brought it home. She usually brought home food when she could, and she felt
thankful that she didn't have to start cooking again.
She heated the lasagne and had dinner with Joey, who came over to get his share
of the food. He'd had the stomach flue as well, and wasn't as hungry as usual.
They had both felt like it was a good solution to split the lasagne between
them. Joey took off again after dinner.
Monica sat down on the couch and started feeling better. Maybe she would be
able to avoid getting sick after all.
Chandler and Regina came home a short while later, discussing which colour was
the better, blue or yellow. Monica smiled, rose and thought that she ought to
record their discussion and sell it as a promotion speech to either Ukraine or
Sweden.
"Hey you two" she said with a smile and went up to them.
"Hey mommy" Regina said from her place on her father's arm.
"Which colour do you like the better, yellow or blue?"
"Blue."
"You always take daddy's side" Regina said, rolling her eyes.
"Don't you listen to the Beatles, mommy?"
"Yes I do, and I would not want to live in a yellow submarine" Monica
said. "And young lady, your bedtime is now."
"I knew it" Regina sighed.
Monica grabbed her and lifted her over from Chandler's arms to her own. She
groaned.
"Regina, you're getting to heavy for mommy to carry around…"
"Then don't carry me. I can walk on my own. Daddy never complains."
"Daddy's stronger than mommy."
"He is not!"
Monica smiled.
"I think he is. Look." She placed herself next to Chandler so that
the small of their arms were next to one and other's. "See? My arm is much
thinner."
"That's not muscles, that's fat!" Regina claimed. "Daddy's just
chubby, that's all!"
"Ouch" Chandler remarked. "I guess this means I shouldn't take
you out for pizza anymore, then."
"Don't blame me!" Regina said.
Monica rolled her eyes amused, and walked towards Regina's room. She stopped in
the living room and turned around to talk to Chandler.
"Honey maybe you should join a gym again" she said with a slight
laugh.
"Oh ha ha, very funny" Chandler said.
"I can't picture daddy at the gym" Regina said. "He prefers to
watch sports instead of actually playing them."
"You know, for a four-year-old you talk and awful lot" Chandler said.
"Yeah, well for a man you weight an awful lot" Regina replied.
Monica burst out laughing but managed to disguise it as a couch. Almost.
Chandler wasn't really overweight, she knew Regina was just coming with a
snappy reply without really knowing what she was saying. And that was the
amusing part.
"Yeah, well excuse me Miss. Bing," Chandler said to his daughter,
"it may be genetical. You'll probably be as chubby as I am when you reach
my age."
"No, I'm gonna look like mommy" Regina said.
Monica couldn't help but chuckling.
"Looks like she's winning this battle, honey!" she said.
"Yeah, and I must say that I'm very thankful that you're taking my
side" Chandler said with rolling eyes and sat down on the couch.
"At least you can carry her around without your back hurting" Monica
said, as a comfort. "That must mean you've got SOME muscles more than
me."
"I think daddy's just more steady" Regina suggested. "That makes
it easier for him to carry me."
"I don't think that was meant as a compliment" Chandler said with a
slight smile.
"You know Regina," Monica said, "it's not like your daddy's
gotten fatter over the years. He hasn't gained more than a few pounds since
mommy and daddy started dating."
"So?" Regina said.
"So, I like him better this way" Monica said. Then she mischievously
grinned at Chandler. "There's much more of him to love, you know."
"Well excuse me, Miss. Skeleton" Chandler replied.
"Oh come on honey, I didn't say it was a bad thing. I prefer it when you
don't look bony. Like you did around the time I dated Pete Becker. That was a
bit thinner than you should be."
"Who's Pete Becker?" Regina asked.
"I hate hugging a man who's bones you can feel just by resting your chin
on his shoulder" Monica said to Chandler, ignoring Regina. "So don't
feel bad. And you know she's just interested in a little word battle
anyway."
Regina was bored with her mother's statements, and started playing with
Monica's hair instead. She gave it a little pull.
"Ow, careful, don't yank mommy's hair…" Monica said, carefully
loosening Regina's grip of her hair. "Yank your own."
"Yanking my own is no fun. On the other hand yours is no fun to yank
either."
"Then yank daddy's" Monica suggested, smiling.
"Yank what hair?" Regina said. "Daddy's got short hair. And if
you yank it you pull it loose. Daddy should be bald by now."
Chandler gave up and rose from the couch.
"I suggest that you're nice, otherwise I'm gonna give Dumbo to cousin
Ben" he said, giving an empty threat.
Monica smiled when she saw the look on Regina's face. Dumbo was her favorite
stuffed animal together with the bunny. Chandler gave Monica a sly smile and
blinked at her. Now he wouldn't be getting anymore comments from Regina. At
least not tonight. Or so he thought.
"Why did you marry daddy?" Regina asked Monica.
"Why?" Monica said, confused.
"Yeah."
"Because I really love him."
"Why do you love him?"
"I knew it…" Chandler mumbled.
"Well, I love you daddy," Regina assured him, "but that's
because you're my daddy. And you're not mommy's daddy. So why does she love
you?"
"What, you don't think I'm lovable?" Chandler asked, walking up to
them.
"Yeah, but I don't understand how come you and mommy love each
other."
"Here's a kid who's not against divorce" Chandler said to Monica,
only half sarcastic and slightly surprised.
"I think what she doesn't understand is how two people can love each other
when they're not related" Monica guessed.
"How come you love daddy?" Regina asked again.
"Well, because…" Monica said, trying to think of an exact reason.
Chandler crossed his arms.
"Well, well, well… Now the can's open, huh?" he said.
"I just, there are so many reasons" Monica said, trying to squirm
away from the question. She'd never reflected over what exactly it had been
that had made her fall in love.
"Like what?" Regina asked.
"Yeah Mon, like what?" Chandler asked.
"Like… Oh I don't know, like how nice he is."
"Don't you think uncle Joey is nice?" Regina asked. She was obviously
puzzled over the weird phenomenon that was love.
"Sure, uncle Joey is VERY nice."
"So do you love him too?" Regina asked.
"Not the same way I love daddy" Monica said. "You know, I can't
explain this, it's too complicated."
"Love is easy, Monica" Chandler said. He was mostly just pretending
to be annoyed. He was slightly happy that Regina had found somebody else to
bother at the moment. And he couldn't resist pretending to be offended and
slightly annoyed, and coming with comments that made Monica squirm like a worm
on a hook.
"Maybe for YOU love is easy" Monica said. "Why don't YOU explain
love to Regina?"
"Because she asked you to do it" Chandler answered, keeping in a
smile. "She doesn't want some chubby guy who might soon grow bald to
explain it to her."
"Come on mommy. Just tell me!" Regina said. "How come you love
daddy?"
"Regina, sometimes you just love somebody" Monica said, trying to
think of a way to get out of the questions. "It's just… an emotion that
appears. You learn to see the other person's good sides, and then you… I don't
know, really."
"But don't you see uncle Joey's good sides, and doesn't daddy see auntie
Phoebe and auntie Rachel's good sides? How come you don't love them?"
"We love them honey, but not in the way we love each other" Monica
said.
"I don't understand!"
"Neither do I" Chandler jokingly said.
"Be quiet daddy, you're not helping!" Regina said. Chandler chuckled.
"Look, it's not easy to explain love, okay?" Monica said. "But
there's just something about some people that makes you fall in love with
them."
"But then how come auntie Rachel and auntie Phoebe aren't in love with
daddy?" Regina said. She didn't understand any of it.
"Maybe we should wait with this discussion" Monica suggested.
"For like another ten years or so. Now we're going to get your pajamas.
It's past your bedtime."
Chandler chuckled to himself when he heard Monica's clever way of getting out
of explaining the mystery of love to the four-year-old. He sat down on the
couch and waited for Monica to finish getting Regina ready for bed.
It took about an half hour before Regina had her pajamas on and her teeth
brushed and everything else ready. Monica carried her from the bathroom to her
room and tucked her in.
"Mommy, seriously, why do you love daddy?" Regina asked again when
Monica kissed her on the cheek.
"I just do" Monica answered. "And that's all I need to know. No
matter what we go through I'll still love him, because he is very special. And
so full of personality. And I love almost everything about him, but I can't
tell you exactly why I fell in love with him."
Regina seemed content with that answer at the moment. Monica went out in the
living room and Chandler went in to say goodnight to Regina as well.
He turned the lights off and closed the door on his way out a few minutes
later, and sat down on the couch next to Monica.
"So I'm full of personality, huh?" he said with a smile. "Regina
asked me what that was supposed to mean."
Monica smiled at him.
"It means that you've got a whole lot of personality, stupid."
"Thanks for clearing that up" Chandler sarcastically remarked. He
stroke her cheek gently and let his hand run through her hair.
"She does ask interesting questions, though" he remarked. "I
never asked my parents things like that. I found out about love when I saw my
dad making out with another man…"
"How lovely" Monica sarcastically said.
"I love you, though…" Chandler said, looking into her eyes.
"With all my heart, I do…"
"I know" Monica said. "And I love you back just as much and even
more." She leaned over to him and kissed him. "Thank you so much for
being born…"
"You can send the 'thank you' notes to my parents" Chandler answered.
"I had very little control over that part myself."
He scooted closer and kissed her lovingly. Monica kissed him back, but all of a
sudden felt a wave of nausea wash over her. She quickly broke the kiss.
"Something wrong?" Chandler asked.
"Just the stomach flue…" Monica said, rose and ran to the bathroom.
*
By the end of the next week, Monica had gone to see a doctor. She recognized
this far too well. She was feeling like she had when she first got sick three
years earlier.
She hadn't said anything to Chandler about it. She wanted to be 100% sure
before she scared him by talking about cancer again. She knew that the doctors
had told her that the odds of her getting sick a second time weren't even worth
mentioning. Over the years they had only heard of one patient who had gotten it
a second time.
"You shouldn't worry, Mrs. Bing" the doctor told her while giving her
a quick exam. "You've just got a case of the flue. That's all."
Monica sighed in relief. She didn't want to get sick again, and she knew she had
overreacted to the symptoms. Chandler had felt the exact same way as she'd done
the past week when he'd had the flue that spring.
"Now, we COULD take a blood sample, just to be 100% accurate" the
doctor said. "But I can guarantee you, you have not gotten blood cancer
again."
Monica let him take some samples, and then went home. She felt relieved that
there wasn't anything greater wrong with her. At the same time she felt a bit
stupid for overreacting. She'd had the flue before, and been a whole lot sicker
than she was right now. And a light case of the flue was very far from cancer.
*
On Friday the phone rang, and the doctor asked her to come by. Monica frowned,
then realized that she had forgotten the prescription he had given her for some
new wonder medicine that would help her feel better. She didn't bother telling
Chandler where she was going. Getting a prescription that she had forgotten was
hardly late-breaking news.
Chandler came home from work shortly after she left, and found Joey and Rachel
playing with Regina in the living room. They didn't know where Monica had gone,
but they told him that she'd said she would be back soon. Chandler hoped they
were right. He always got so worried about her if she was gone for too long.
"Daddy, come play with us!" Regina said, and waved a Barbie doll at
him.
Chandler sat down on the floor with the other three, and took the doll. He
always felt awkward when Regina wanted him to play with her, but he had to
admit that it was pretty amusing to be part of it when Joey and Rachel were
playing as well. Joey seemed to think that it was just as fun as Rachel thought
it was. Chandler soon gave the doll back to his daughter and sat down on the
couch to watch the little sketch that was put on.
Joey and Rachel kept debating over which dress was fancier, and which shoes
went best to what outfit, and soon got really into it. After a short while,
Regina looked up at Chandler and they shared a look. Regina put her doll down
and sat down with Chandler instead, to watch the other two as well.
Monica got home around an hour later. Chandler was alone in the kitchen at the
moment, since Rachel and Joey had taken Regina across the hall to watch
"Oliver and Company".
Monica smiled at Chandler and tossed him a can of the new pills she had gotten.
"Think fast!" she said when she tossed the can.
Chandler didn't manage to catch the can, to Monica's amusement. He picked it up
from the floor and read on it.
"Mon, what are these pills for?"
"The flue" Monica said.
"What, they have prescripted pills for that too, now?"
"Uh-hu. Some new medical wonder, or something like that. I just got it
from the hospital."
"So that's where you were?"
"Yeah. I went there on Wednesday for a check, and I forgot the
prescription there. So I went back and got it today, they called."
Chandler shrugged his shoulders and put the can down on the counter.
"Oh, by the way, I got you something too!" Monica said, and started
to look through her purse.
"Something else from the pharmacy?" Chandler said with a smile.
"No, not really…" Monica said. Then she found what she was looking
for. "There! Here!" She handed it to Chandler.
"Thanks…" Chandler said, and looked at the object she had handed him.
"What is it, though."
"I got that from the doctor today."
