~Chapter 1~

19 year old Monica Geller woke up to someone jumping on the bed.

"Mommy, wake up, Monica's three year old son Daniel Geller whispered while jumping on the bed.

"Daniel honey, stop jumping, Monica said.

"Ok, he said and stopped jumping, landing on Monica. She let out a laugh, she was fully awake now.

"I'm up, I'm up, Monica said laughing. Daniel rolled off her and hopped off the bed.

"Momma today is the first day of Pre-school remember, Daniel said.

"I know, Monica said, smiling at how excited he was. She sat up rubbing the sleep out of her eyes and looked at her alarm clock, it read 5:30. She had to get Daniel to Pre-school by 6:15 and get to her new job by 6:30. Monica felt the coldness of the wooden floor underneath her feet as she stood up.

"Come on, Daniel whined.

"I'm coming, Monica said scooping him up. He wrapped his skinny arms around Monica's neck and he wrapped his legs around her waist as they walked into Daniel's bedroom. They lived in a small apartment, it was the only thing Monica could afford. She got pregnant at the age of 16 and she lived with her parents till she turned 19 and bought her self her own apartment. Daniel's father wanted nothing to do with her and Daniel. They walked into Daniel's room and she put him on his race car bed. "Ok what shirt do you want to wear, she asked him.

"Spongebob, he said.

"You got it, she pulled out his blue spongebob shirt out and knelt in front of him. "Ok buddy lift up your arms, he followed her directions lifting his arms up so Monica could lift his shirt up and replaced it with his spongebob shirt. She helped him off the bed and changed his pants.

"Momma I want to watch cartoons, he said.

"Ok, she said and watched as he ran out of the room. Monica followed him out of the room and down the hallway into the living room. Daniel was already on the couch waiting for the tv to turn on. She grabbed a muffin off the counter and handed it to Daniel, and grabbed the remote. "Ok what do you want to watch, she asked him.

"Spongebob, his mouth filled with muffin. She flipped to the channel nick and lucky Spongebob was on. Monica kissed his cheek and went to go change. Monica grabbed her work outfit of the dresser, it was a a green skirt with a white shirt. She was working as a waitress and even though it was low pay it was enough to support her and Daniel. Monica combed her dark black hair and pulled it back into a pony tail. She added lip balm and checked herself in the mirror. "Danny come here, she yelled. A few seconds later he appeared in the doorway, crumbs all over his face.

"Yeah mommy, she grabbed a tissue and wiped his face clean.

"Ok time to brush out teeth, Monica said and took his hand and walked into the bathroom. She grabbed a stool so Daniel could see himself in the mirror. Monica handed him his tooth brush and added some toothpaste. After they were done, Monica picked Daniel up and grabbed her purse off her desk in her bedroom. "Do we have everything, she asked Daniel.

"My backpack, he said pointing to his superman backpack which was on the couch.

"Right, she grabbed it with her free hand. "Thanks honey, she kissed his cheek and looked at him. He was her baby. With his dark hair and big blue eyes. "Ok ready, he nodded and they were ready to go.

They finally arrived at the Pre-school with 5 minutes to spare.

"Ok, you be a good boy, Monica said as they approached the teacher who was standing in the doorway smiling.
