PROLOGUE

Monica and Chandler are living in Westchester after shifting from their apartment. They have rented their apartment. Joey is living with them in his Joey room. The two adopted twins, Lottie and Louis are now two years old. Johannah, their biological mother, died soon after giving birth to them.

Ross and Rachel moved in again after the birth to Emma, whose name is now Gemma, thanks to Rachel. She is pregnant with their second child. After this news, Monica and Chandler have invited them a lot at their place.

Lottie and Gemma are best friends, and Louis loves playing with them. The three of them now also go to playschool together. Ross and Rachel are very busy with their careers and the pregnancy so Gemma spends most of her time at Monica and Chandler's. They treat her like their own daughter. Ross and Rachel are also

searching for a new house, near Gemma's school for the birth of their second child, a boy, who is due in three months.

Louis Geller-Bing Tomlinson keeps his last name dedicated to her late biological mother but considers Monica and Chandler as his real parents. He loves spending time with his fun uncle Joey, their rooms are next to each other, much to the dismay of Monica. He is a beautiful boy with eyes like the ocean and he gets most of his personality from Chandler.

'Boo bear!', Monica shouts from the kitchen. The little boy comes running from his room, poorly dressed. 'How many times have I told you to get dressed properly for school!', Monica says frustratingly, tucking in his shirt into his shorts. 'Here you go, Chandler and Lottie are already in the car.', she then says to him, keeping his lunch box in his bag and giving it to him.

"Louis!"Chandler called. "Oi oi!" he said back. Honestly, oi oi was his new favourite word. He used it all the time now and frankly it was driving Monica crazy. "It's your first-day honey, you don't want to be late," Monica called as Lou waddled on his chubby legs towards the car.

"Ahhh there's my favourite boy," Chandler said as he lifted Louis into the car making him sit next to his twin sister. "Heyyy!!I thought I was your favourite boy!"Joey complained, coming out from the house behind Louis. Chandler looked at Joey exasperated, "But you're my favourite Joey!"Joey smiled, "Well that's okay then," he ruffled Louis' hair and reached into the car and kissed Lottie and Gemma's cheeks. He then got all teary-eyed and said, "I can't believe they're all grown up," he sniffed.

Monica smacked him with her washcloth, "Don't start, you'll make me cry," she whined. Joey hugged Monica and cried into her shoulder. Chandler looked at the pair incredulously. "So will you babies be okay till I drop them to school or should I call the babysitter?"They didn't answer him and Chandler kissed Monica, hugged Joey and shut the car door and climbed in the driver's seat and started the engine. "Okay so who's ready for play school?!" he exclaimed. "YAYYYY!!" the children cheered as they started their journey.

"Louis Tomlinson," the teacher called. Lou grinned and waved his hand, "That's me!"Only 20 children were starting playschool as most parents usually sent their kids straight to school at the age of 3 so Louis was the last name to be called. Lottie and Gemma were in a different class from Louis but they were together. Honestly, Louis was a little thankful. Sure he loved his sister, and Gemma was like a sister to him but girls would probably come in the way of him making friends, and he wanted to make as many of them as possible. He looked around the room to find a potential friend but everyone looked really boring, some were even crying. Pff scardey cats.

"Okay, so does anyone want to tell us about themselves?" the bubbly teacher asked. Lou immediately jumped up, "Pick me, miss!"But after looking around he realised he didn't have to worry about that because he was the only one who had volunteered." Louis right?" she asked and Lou nodded. She motioned for him to come to the front of the room. Louis strutted as he felt the whole class watching him. He jutted a thumb at himself. "I'm Louis Geller-Bing Tomlinson," he said. Everyone looked at him in awe as he was the only one not crying and he had gone up to introduce himself. Also, he had a really cool and long name.
