"Aaron In New york" Part Three
Friends/Chicago Hope Crossover
Monica went up to answer the door. "I thought my friends wre gone for the night."
"Well if one of them came back I'd really like to meet one of them." Aaron said while drinking a little bit from his wine glass.
Monica smiled at him whiles she opened the door. She stood back a second.
"Hi guys." Monica said as she saw that her friends had come back. "Did you want to meet one or all of them?" Monica asked Aaron.
"I'm so sorry, Mon, I tried to stop them from coming back over but..." Rachel apologized.
"But they simply had to meet Aaron?" Monica finished her sentance. "It's ok. Come on in."
Aaron stood up and watched the friends come in and walk over in his direction. For a second he wasn't sure what he was getting into.
"Hi, Ross." Ross said extending his hand. "I wanted to meet the man thats made my sister so happy in only three days."
"Nice to meet you Ross." Aaron shook Ross's hand.
"This is Joey." Ross proceeded to intro the others to Aaron while Monica joined him at his side.
"Hi," Joey said and waved to him. "I played a doctor on tv. Dr Ramoray on Days of our lives." Joey threw the last bit in.
"I'm sorry I never watch soap operas." Aaron said. "I would bring a tv into my office but I think the patients would mind."
Joey chortled.
"Chandler Bing." Chandler introduced himself.
"I'm Rachel, and this is Phoebe." Rachel said to him. "Youre cuter than Monica said."
"Rachel!" Monica objected.
"Thats quite all right. I wish all my office referrals were like that."
"So, how do you like the city?" Rachel asked. "Do you have a brother?"
Aaron couldnt help but chuckle. He suddenly felt like a teen idol heart-throb being swooned over by a legion, well one anyway, of fans. After the greeting section of the night was done everyone split off and did their own thing. Rachel had come a little closer as they talked.
"Uh thanks, I think. But remember I'm taken." Aaron said looking at Monica meaningfully. Rachel sighed.
"Oh, I'm so sorry." Rachel said. She leaned in closer. "I'm trying to make Ross jealous."
"I knew that." Aaron admitted. "So does he." Aaron said quieter. Rachel turned and looked at Ross. "I'm fairly certain he knows you still feel something him as he feels something for you as well."
"You are a good pyschiatrist." Rachel said.
"I hope not, I hope to be a surgeon again sometime soon."
"By the way how did you know about Ross and I." Rachel said as she started to turn away.
"Monica and I talked alot." Aaron told her.
There was a sudden shriek.
"Oh my god, someone help Joey." Chandler said pointing to Joey who seemed to have a hard time breathing.
Aaron ran over to him. "What happened?"
"Joey must have not chewed this h'our derve enough before he swallowed it. And I don't know the heimlich manuever."
Aaron quickly examined Joey. "It's too far down for the heimlich."
"Hows that possible?" Monica asked.
"Sometimes something gets pushed down too far in order to be just pushed back out." Aaron said. "Call 911. I'm gonna have to do something right here and now if we are gonna get Joey to the hospital before he loses consciousness." Aaron looked around."Quickly, give me that skewer over there and some alcohol."
"Joey cant drink if he can't swallow." Monica said getting the skewer.
"I need to sterilize it." Aaron said looking at Joey. "Joey I'm gonna make a small puncture right here and it will be able to breathe. Do you understand?"
Joey nodded.
"Someone hold Joeys hand." Aaron said. Phoebe went to him and started singing softly to him. "Here we go."
The roomates waited on baited breath as Aaron started to make the puncture in a strategic location on Joeys throat. He eased it in and it seemed to cause no pain for Joey. No visible pain anyway. The skewer seem to set something of in his throat and Joey started making weird gulping noises.
"Whats happening now?" Monica asked.
"Its a reflex." Aaron explained. "Like a catball, Joey is gonna spit out whatever choked him and he will be fine." As Aaron explained this Joey burped up the offending object and started to breath easily now. "We just need to go to the hospital to have the punction taken care of."
"Aaron, what would I ever do without you?" Monica said and kissed him on the cheek.
"I don't know." Aaron said as the ambulance guys arrived. "I was hoping not to have you find that out."
Monica smiled as Joey was helped out of the apartment.
"I gotta go with them." Aaron said.
"Me too." Monica said. "I am gonna have this date with you even if it kills me, and it already almost killed Joey."
