Monica is now 12 weeks pregnant and she is starting to show a little. Still no one knows chandler is the father.

(Monica walks into chandlers apartment)
Monica: (loudly) Chandler come on we have to go!
(Chandler runs but tiptoes out)
Chandler: (whisper yelling) Shhh Joey is sleeping.
Monica: (whispers) oops sorry. (She looks at his feet) (whisper yells)Chandler you haven't even put on your shoes yet come on we are going to be late!
Chandler : (whispers) ok ok I'm putting them on.
(He puts them  in and they hold hands to leave)

(They get to the hospital and walk to the front desk)
Chandler: Hello I've booked an appointment for an ultrasound for Monica Geller under the name Chandler Bing which I was told was at 5 pm.
(The receptionist scrolls on computer)
Receptionist: ah ha I found you thank you mr bing and miss geller take a seat just to your left.
(They walk over and sit down)
(Chandler holds Monica's hand and smiles at her. He can't believe that she is already 12 weeks and he still can't believe he is having this baby with in his opinion, the most beautiful woman in the world. How did he get so lucky? It felt like yesterday when he was breaking up with Janice 1000000 times)
Chandler: I can't believe you're already 12 weeks pregnant I'm so excited! (He puts his hand on her stomach and rubs it gently)
Monica: I know! (She says this excitedly t like she usually does)
(The doctor walks in)
Doctor: Monica Geller and Chandler Bing please.
(They stand up and walk into the Doctors room holding hands).
Doctor: Hello (she smiles friendly) please lay down Monica!
(Monica lays down and chandler takes a seat next to the ultrasound bed)
Doctor: So how are you?
Monica: Good on the hole a bit of morning sickness though.
Doctor: Oh that's normal at least it's not to much (she giggles slightly as she prepares the ultrasound machine)
(The Doctor starts to put the gel on Monica's  stomach and grabs the wand of the Ultrasound and bring it onto Monica's stomach)
Chandler: (he stands up with a concerned look on his face. He starts to worry that it would hurt her. He would do anything that would harm her or make her uncomfortable) wait wait will that hurt her?
Monica: (she looks at him and giggles) No! It just tickles a bit.
Chandler: Oh ok (he sits back down, smiles and holds her hand)
(The doctor rubs her stomach with the ultrasound to find the baby)
Doctor: Right here is your baby (she turns the screen round so they can see and turns the volume up so they can hear the heartbeat)
(Chandlers mind: oh my gosh. That's the most beautiful sound I've ever heard. I feel myself tearing up. I can't believe that little thing on the scream is my baby. I feel so lucky)
Chandler: (almost crying from happiness so wobbly) is-is that it's heartbeat?
(Monica's mind: aw it's so beautiful that I feel tears stream down my face instantlyand I'm so happy I'm having this baby with chandler. I can't believe I'm saying it but I'm glad the baby is chandlers, I think he is going to be an amazing dad.)
Monica: Oh my gosh it's beautiful (she holds both of chandlers hands and pulls him so their heads are touching)
Doctor: I'll give you two a minute (The Doctor leaves)
Chandler: Now we are almost only 3 people away from a full human pyramid (he jokes and smiles at Monica)
(She smiles and keeps looking)
(A tear funs down chandlers face and he wipes it off and then wipes Monica's tears away)
(The doctor walks back in)
Doctor: Hey I'm back, you two ok?
Monica: yes we are amazing
(Chandler and Monica look at eachother and smile)
Chandler: So when do you think you can tell the gender?
Doctor: at about 20 weeks we can tell you the gender
Both: Ok
(Monica wipes the gel off her stomach and pulls her jumper down. She stands up and Chandler puts his arm round her and she puts her hand round him.)
Chandler: Thank you.
Doctor: My pleasure we will see you soon.
(Monica and chandler leave the doctors office)

(In the hallway between Monica and Rachel and Chandler and Joeys apartment)
(Joey heard them in the corridor so decides to spy on them by looking though the peep hole)
Monica: That was amazing
Chandler: I know it was so beautiful
Monica: I'm so tired now I'm going to go to bed
Chandler: Ok me too good night
(They kiss and then split ways to enter their apartments)
(Joey looks shocked and gasps but hears chandler coming in so he pretends to do the dishes)
Chandler: o-oh hey Joey.
(He's worried that joey heard them or even saw them in the corridor)
Joey: (curiously) hey
Joey: I was just playing some foose ball
Chandler: ok cool
(He looks really confused at joeys weird tone)
Joey: So when were you going to tell me
Chandler: (chandlers mind: oh shit has he found out about me and mon. Oh no that's so bad maybe he hasn't it's fine) (pretends to be confused) tell you what (nervous laughs)
Joey: (he says this shocked) That Monica and you are together
Chandler: (he acts confused) (nervous chuckle) w-what- (Joey cuts him off)
Joey: Don't try and cover it up because I just saw you kiss him through the corridor
Chandler: Oh well yes we are together
Joey: When did this happen (shocked and confused)
Chandler: In London
Joey: In Londo- (he stops. Though he isn't smart he could do the math and realise that if they got together in London that means that Monica's baby was also chandlers.) wait, does that mean Monica's baby is-is yours??! (Joeys mind: OH MY GOD! This is crazy my two best friends and they have never liked each other like that. This is mad they are having a baby together and I didn't even know they were together?! I can't get my head round it)
Chandler: (hesitantly) Yes we made it up about the waiter please don't tell anyone.
Joey: This is unbelievable when were you planning on telling everyone.
Chandler: Well we both weren't ready so we decided not to
Joey: Dude aren't you freaking out? I mean this is a baby, an actual baby that you are responsible for. Usually you would be terrified.
Chandler: well surprisingly I feel, ok about it all. Of course I am petrified but I think I can handle it.
Joey:oh that's great of you to step up man ( he pats him on the shoulder.
Chandler: anyway I'm going to go to bed because I'm really tired and please don't tell anyone, for me?
Joey: ok I promise I won't good night.
Chandler: night
(Chandler walks into his bedroom)
