Sweet Nothing In My Ear

The Best Birthday Gift

I decided that I loved writing this story so much and you guys gave such great reviews that I'm going to post one last chapter! :) And I had this idea that I wanted to add and forgot about it...

A couple months went by and Chandler's birthday came around. Monica had the perfect idea what to give Chandler and the kids couldn't be happier about the idea.

Monica left the house with the kids giving Chandler some time alone all to himself to watch the game without any noise and distractions.

They took awhile at the store picking out the perfect one to give him and all the stuff that was needed with it. Alex and Wesley hurried and got their mom who was with Marley in a completely different alise. "We found one!" They said excitedly grabbing onto their mother's arm and dragging her in the direction it was.

Monica looked at it "That's the one you like?" They nodded. She smiled "Alright..."

They got everything they wanted before checking out and going to the car. Monica buckled Wesley into his booster seat and Marley in her car seat. She got in and dialed her brother's number. "Hey Ross do you think you can get Chandler out of the house for an hour or two?" She asked turning on her car. "Yeah we got it...okay thanks, bye." She hung up and drove home hoping Chandler was already gone.

He was.

Alex and Wesley jumped out of the car leaving Monica to carry everything else in. "Boy's don't open it!" She yelled after them.

They were sitting in the living room waiting when Monica walked in and put Marley in her bouncy seat. "You guys wanna set it up?" She asked bringing everything in and setting it on the coffee table.

"Yeah!" They said excited jumping up and over to the stuff.

Monica got Marley some baby cereal to eat while she helped the boys making sure they didn't make a mess.

A few hours later Ross and Joey came back with Chandler. He got out of the car "Thanks guys. I'll call ya tomorrow." He said before they drove off leaving him.

Monica saw a car pull up "Okay daddy's here. You guys watch your sister while I go talk to him for a minute." She said and went outside to fine Chandler walking towards the door. "Hey birthday boy." She smiled kissing him. "I got you a present." She told him smiling.

"Really." He winked at her and wrapped his arms around her waste kissing her deeply.

Monica pulled back "Not that kind of present."

He shrugged and continued to walk up to the house.

Chandler walked in and saw Alex and Wesley looking at a wrapped present. "Daddy!" Wesley yelled and ran over to him "Open the present!" He said.

Chandler smiled and walked over to it. "It's big." He said looking at his kids.

Monica walked over to the play pen where she left Marley. She picked her up and sat down in the chair.

Alex and Wesley sat on both sides of their dad looking at the present.

Chandler unwrapped the present carefully. "Oh my God..." He smiled and looked up at Monica.

Monica was looking at Alex. She looked up and caught his eyes starring back at her. She had glassy eyes. Monica rested her head against Marley's on her lap. "You said you were saving up for a guinea pig." She told him quietly sniffling.

He looked at Alex next to him who was now at eye level with the animal. He looked at his hearing aids. He remembered back to that day when they decided to have the surgery...

That night after Chandler said goodnight to all their kids and thanked them once again for the gift he walked in his room to find Monica sitting up in the bed.

He walked over to his side of the bed and climbed in bringing Monica closer to him and kissing the top of her head.

Monica rested her head on Chandler's shoulder "You like your present?" She asked

He looked down at her "More than anything. I can't believe you rememebered that."

Monica looked up at her husband "I rememeber everything you told me." She said quietly. "I love you."

He leaned down and kissed her sweetly. "I love you too."

"So what did you name him?" Monica asked

"Well...I really like the name spike, or flash." He joked "But then again when Alex took him out and he got loose, he wasn't that fast. So flash wouldn't work. And when he pooped all over my couch I realized it should be something like The Ultimate Pooper. Then I was thinking what about a super name like Batman, I mean how cool would that be?" He looked down at Monica.

She had her eyes close and her breathing was even. She much have fallen asleep.

Chandler reached over and turned off the light. He then kissed Monica's forehead "Night..." He whispered and closed his eyes.

That was the best birthday gift he got.

Until the next year when Monica told him she was pregnant...Now he couldn't be happier.

Okay NOW I'm done :)
