This 3^rd fanfic kinda goes after TOW Monica’s Pregnant. I just put it in order like the show. It’s been 3 weeks after Rachel had a baby and Rachel had moved in with Ross now because they’re husband and wife. So Joey’s a loner. And Monica is starting to get fat because she’s pregnant.

Joey: (looks at his watch and gets up from his chair) Oh. I have to go to a meeting now. See ya!

Monica: What meeting is it?

Joey: I don’t know. My boss said it’s a surprise. Maybe I’ll be getting a raise!

Rachel: Well, good luck!

Joey: Thanks! See ya!

Everyone: Bye/Later Joe/ See ya! (Joey exits)

Ross: Hey, tomorrow’s Joey’s birthday. What did you guys get him? (everyone looks at each other nervously) You guys didn’t get him anything yet? Tomorrow’s his birthday!

Chandler: Well, what did you get him?

Ross: Uhm…nothing.

[Scene: In the morning at Joey’s apartment. Joey’s not awake yet and everyone is setting the table for Joey's birthday party.]

Phoebe: Hey, how would we know if Joey’s awake yet?

Rachel: Oh, when he yawns really loud, that means he’s awake. It really pissed me off when I used to live here. (Joey yawns really loud)

Monica: I can see why.

Chandler: Okay, everyone! Get ready! (everyone prepares and then Joey opens the door)

Everyone: SURPRISE! HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOEY!

Joey: (looks at them and then looks up and starts to cry) Why God why- (then Chandler covered his mouth with his hand)

Chandler: Please stop crying to god.

Joey: Sorry. I-I just can’t believe I’m 32 already! (sits down on the table)

Rachel: (comforting him) Aw Joey don’t worry about it.

Joey: Easy for you to say. You’re only 30!

Phoebe: Joey, will it make you feel any better if you open the presents?

Joey: (smiles) Sure!

Phoebe: Here! (gives Joey her present) This is from me.

Joey: (opens it) Baloney sandwich! Thanks Phoebe! (hugs Phoebe) I don't have to make breakfast!

Rachel: (sarcastic) Wow, I should’ve thought of that!

Joey: What did you get me?

Rachel: (gives Joey her present) Here. See for yourself.

Joey: (opening it) A scooter.

Rachel: Yeah, Tag gave me that last year for my birthday but I thought you should have it.

Joey: Thanks Rach! (hugs her)

Ross: Here! (hands Joey his present) Open mine next! Open mine next!

Joey: Okay.

Chandler: (to Monica) I bet it’s a fossil from a dinosaur. (Ross stares at him)

Joey: (he opened the presents and it was a book) What the hell is this?

Ross: It’s a book on Erosion Theories. It’s really fascinating!

Joey: Oh thanks Ross! (gives the book back to Ross)

Monica: (whispering to Ross) He doesn’t read.

Chandler: (gives Joey the present) This is from Monica and me.

Joey: I don’t get two presents from you guys?

Chandler: Don’t start!

Joey: (opens the present) Cool! Tekken 3! (holds up the game)

Monica: Now you can stop bother us about that game!

Joey: Aw! Thanks you guys!

[Scene: In the afternoon, still at Joey’s apartment. Joey’s sitting on the chair eating his cake and everyone is gone.]

Phoebe: (enters) Hey Joey!

Joey: (unhappy) Hey! (gets up)

Phoebe: What’s wrong.

Joey: (starts to cry like he cried to god) I’m 32 years old already!

Phoebe: Oh, turning 32 isn’t so bad.

Joey: Oh please.

Phoebe: Remember last year, you cheered me up because I was upset about being 31? (Joey nods) Well you gave me a special gift.

Joey: (confused) What is that?

Phoebe: (pause) Close your eyes.

Joey: (still confused) Okay. (closed his eyes)

Phoebe: (kisses Joey) That’s the gift you gave me. (Joey pauses and looks at Phoebe and then quickly kisses her.)

Rachel: (entering with Ross) Come on Ross! It’s (saw Joey and Phoebe kissing) Oh my god! (Joey and Phoebe stopped kissing)

Ross: What are you guys doing?!

Phoebe: (speechless) Uh…we uh we uh kisuh oo ah you ah know oo.

Chandler: Hey. What’s going on?

Joey: Phoebe and I are together!

Monica: (gasp and surprised) Oh my god! That’s so great! (hugs Joey and Phoebe)

Chandler: Wow, how did this happen?

Phoebe: It’s a long story. Well, it’s not exactly long. It’s kinda short and it’s kinda long. I don’t know!

Rachel: Oh forget what happened! Joey and Phoebe are together!

Everyone: Yay/This is so great!/I’m so happy for you guys! (they all hug)

[Scene: In the coffee house and everyone is there, but Joey.]

Everyone: Hey!

Monica: Aw! Aren’t you guys a cute couple. But of course not as cute as us. (points to Chandler and herself)

Rachel: What are you talking about? We’re cuter! (points to Ross and herself)

Chandler: Yeah, we’re all equally cute. Okay?

Chandler: (whisper to Monica) We are so cuter than they are.

Monica: (nods her head) uh huh.
