(i haven't updated since January, ouch, anyway, here's a crap chapter)
Rachel is pacing the living room ''she will want this baby. won't she?''
''why are you asking me? i'm not Erica, listen, she's 14 Rach, motherhood is way too big of a task to take on at that age, just think if it would have been emma in that situation at that age, how would have you reacted?'' phoebe says
Rachel scoffs and then stops ''yeah, you got a point''
''Listen okay, if we support her then the chances of her wanting to keep this baby is very high, plus, i think she's just freaked out a lot'' Jack says
''Okay, yeah, oh god... Chandler and Monica clearly don't approve of this though and they're the two people who matter most'' Rachel says placing her head in her hands
''My mom is going to be supportive about it but i doubt my Dad will, i'll go find him and you speak to Erica okay?'' Jack says standing up
''Got it'' Rachel says
''I'm coming with you Jack'' Phoebe grabs her jacket and they leave
Rachel knocks on Erica's door ''Hey, Sweetie, it's Rachel, we need to talk''
''Come in'' Erica shouts
Rachel goes in and Erica is lay on her bed facing the wall, her heart breaks for her
''How are you doing ?'' Rachel asks
''I honestly don't know what to do, Rachel'' Erica says getting upset
''Oh Honey!! Rachel runs over and hugs her ''Don't cry El, it's gonna be okay, i promise it will''
Erica cries in Rachel's arms
''Now, Do you want this baby?'' Rachel asks
Erica gulps and shakes her head ''No, but i don't want them to die, so i'm going to bring the baby into the world, and someone else can have them, someone who deserves them more than i do''
Rachel shakes her head ''You deserve to be a mom just as much as anyone else does, but i understand your decision''
Erica smiles slightly ''Thank you, Rach, How's my Mom and Dad?''
''Your mom is going to support you, Your dad hasn't come home yet, Phoebe and Jack have gone looking for him'' Erica nods
{cuts to Phoebe and Jack walking through central perk}
''Where the hell is he?!'' Phoebe asks
Jack spots someone sat on a bench with his head in his hands
''I'm guessing that's him'' Jack points
Phoebe and Jack sit on opposite sides of chandler, they stay silent for a moment
''Why are you guys here ?'' Chandler asks breaking the silence
''Because we were worried, you just stormed off without telling us where you were going'' Jack explains
''I just needed to get out of there, how is mom taking it ?'' Chandler asks
Jack sighs ''With tears, you need to come home and we need to talk this out''
''There is nothing to talk about, this whole thing is ridiculous and stupid'' Chandler scowls
Jack shakes his head ''No...NO! You know what, Erica is an intelligent girl who knows what shes doing and so if she says it was a mistake than i believe her!!'' Jack rants
''Jack, please'' Phoebe says sternly
''No Phoebe!! Listen, all Erica is thinking about right now is how you're taking this, Dad, Mom said shes gong to try support her and you should too, and if you don't then to hell with what you think!!'' Jack yells
''Fine!! I will come home and we will discuss this but i am not promising anything'' Chandler agrees
''Right, and i think its best we head home'' Phoebe says and they head back to the apartment
{Back at the apartment}
Phoebe, Jack and Chandler all walk in to sheer silence, Ericaand Rachel are sat on the barcaloungers facing Monica who is sat on the couch, Joey is sat at the table with Ross, Phoebe joins them, Jack walks over and sits on the arm of the couch and Chandler sits next to Monica, the group sit in a deafening silence for about 10 mins before Phoebe pipes up
''is erm, anyone gonna say anything? because i cant stand this silence and if Rachel spins around on that chair anymore, shes gonna throw up'' Phoebe says
Rachel stops spinning and sways a little ''Im good'' she says
''So, what did harry say about this ?'' Chandler asks
Erica sighs ''he's fine with it and said he's going to be there for me when i need him, but... Mom, Dad, I'm not keeping this baby, but i'm not getting it terminated, i'm gonna bring it into the world and let someone who deserves them more than be take care of them'' she says, getting a little choked up
Monica sighs ''Oh El, Come here'' she hugs Erica ''You deserve to be a mom as much as any other person does, but we also understand your decision''
Chandler nods ''And erm... if you do change your mind, we will give this baby a family they deserve''
''Thank you'' Erica says crying in Monica's arms
''Anytime'' Monica says hugging Erica
