Monica had just finished packing her bag. She was super excited to go on a trip with her brother, but she knew he would be bringing his best, Chandler. Monica had lost a lot of weight in the last two years. The feelings were mutual, Monica hated him because he called her fat, and he hated her because she accidentally cut of his toe. She heard her mom yell, "Monica! Ross is here!" With that, she grabbed her bag and ran down stairs as fast as possible. 

Dropping her bag at the bottom of the staircase, She ran and hugged her brother. "Ross! I haven't seen you since last year!" Chandler rolled his eyes and scoffed, "I don't get a hug?" Monica turned around and pointed her finger at him. "Don't think about making ANY dumb jokes that make no damn sense, thanksgiving boy!" Jack looked at her sternly and said, "Monica, watch your language young lady!" She rolled her eyes. "Dad! I'm 20!" Jack mumbled, "That's not right," and started counting on his fingers. 

Chandler looked at her funny. "You're 20?" Monica nodded a yes with an annoyed look on her face. Chandler mumbled, "One hot 20 year old," under his breath, but everybody heard him. Monica screamed, "WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY?" To the top of her lungs. Jack grabbed him by the collar of his shirt, "And, how old are you young man?" Chandler gulped. "23. I just turned 23, sir." Jack dropped his grasp on Chandler. "Oh. Well, Monica sweetie, your birthday is this month, so technically, he's only 2 years older than you. I'm just saying having a boyfriend wouldn't hurt!" Monica rolled her eyes, "I can't believe you! Whatever, I'm driving." She yanked the keys from her mother and took her bags out to the car. 

Monica drove, and Ross sat next to her. Chandler, sat in the middle of the backseat. It was awkwardly quiet. Chandler started speaking trying to fill the awkward silence. "So, Mon, can I call you that?" Monica looked back, "No." Chandler rolled his eyes and smiled, "I'm calling you that anyways. It wasn't really a question." Monica scoffed. "So Mon, got any secrets-" Ross flicked him in the forehead. "Stop speaking." There was another awkward silence. Monica spoke up this time, "So I'm hot huh?" Ross rolled his eyes and looked back at Chandler who was bright red. "No, I never- when did I- I don't like this question." Monica smirked and Ross rolled his eyes, "Could you just PLEASE get along for once." They didn't speak for the rest of the ride. 

When they got to there hotel, Ross walked downstairs to go get some extra towels. The hotel had two beds and a pull out couch. Monica sat on one of the beds and started putting her stuff on the nightstand. "Hey Mon, what you doing?" Monica rolled her eyes. "For one only my friends can call me that, for two I'm unpacking, what's it look like?" Chandler sat next to her. " No need to be sarcastic. Am I not your friend?" Monica got stiff. "I'll think about it." She smiled slightly, and turned her head to continue unpacking. That's when the landline rang. "Hello?"

"Hi, this is room 180 correct?"

"Yes, may I ask what this is in reference to?" Chandler chuckled at how proper she sounded.

"You  rented a hotel with Ross Geller correct?" Monica felt her heart drop. 

"Yes, this is Monica Geller his sister, and sitting next to me is Chandler Bing."

"Ross fell down the stairs and may have a concussion, he was transported to the hospital."

Monica started crying, "Oh my god! That idiot! We'll be down to the lobby in a few minutes!"

She threw the phone back on the receiver, and started packing a bag. "Hey Mon, you okay?" Monica turned towards him, "Ross is in the hospital, and we have to do so much in such little time! Here take this." She threw a bag at him and grabbed his hand. They ran down to the lobby holding hands. Monica ran up to the hotel clerk, "Hi, I'm Monica Geller could you tell me what hospital Ross Geller got referred to?" She talked to the lady for a couple minutes before grabbing Chandler by the hand and dragging him to the car. They got in the front seat, Monica driving, and  rushed to the hospital.

When they arrived at the hospital Monica talked to the front desk lady and went to sit next to Chandler. "What did they say?" Monica started crying again. "They said there doing a few scans of his head to make sure he doesn't have any broke bones." Chandler hugged her and looked into her eyes. "He'll be okay. H'ell be great by next week! Don't worry Mon." She smiled at him. "I'm starting to like that for a nickname." They embraced each other until the nurse gave them the okay to visit Ross. 

Monica ran in the room and hugged him. "You, dumb ass! You had me worried sick!" Ross nodded. "I know. I'm so sorry I worried you." When Monica stood up Chandler hugged her. Ross smiled, "look at you two getting along." Chandler chuckled. "Yeah guess she is pretty great." Monica smiled. " Yeah, and he's not that bad once you get to know him." Ross looked down. "So this trip sucked didn't it." Monica nodded, "Yeah, pretty much a total bust." Chandler looked at her. "Well maybe not a total bust." He winked at Monica. She hit him on the arm. They all sat there and talked for a while. 

I know this wasn't the best writing, but I thought it would work for a short story. Hope you like it! ❤️
