2 weeks before the Friends Reunion :
Jen : I'm taking two tests then?
Aleen : Yeah... and it's very important that you avoid any unnecessary contact with the outside world in the meantime.
Jen : Right, and we've already arranged that with Apple right?
Aleen : Yeah, they know you'll take some time off of filming for a couple of weeks.
Jen : Good.
Brad : Who are you talking to?
Brad peeks his head through the office door, holding a sandwich in his hand.
Jen : Hi honey.
He walks over to her, leaning against the desk.
Jen : It's Aleen.
Aleen : You said Brad was going to Belgium this weekend?
Brad : Yeah, I am.
Aleen : You have to remember that when he comes back, he'll have to stay somewhere else.
Jen : What?
Aleen : He'll have to quarantine for a week and if he'd stay in the same household as you, you would too.
10 minutes later :
Jen : It's the Friends reunion.
Brad : Oh, that's happening next week?
Jen : Yeah.
Brad : You know what?
He smirks, walking over to her office chair.
Brad : I think I should've played a part in that.
Jen : What?
Brad : Yeah, I mean after all I was on the show.
Jen : For one episode...
Brad : It was an important episode!
Jen : Not really honey.
Jen laughs, rolling her eyes.
Brad : I bet the fans would love to see, uhm...
Jen : Will...
Brad : Right, Will... back.
Jen : I bet they would.
Jen sighs, looking down on her feet.
Jen : But I mean even if we wanted to have you there, you wouldn't be able to.
Brad : Right.
Jen : Ah, do you remember how much fun we had the days you were on though?
Brad : I do, yeah.
Jen : And the audience, god they loved you.
Brad : Nah, they loved seeing us together.
Jen smiles as he mentions it.
Brad : Remember when I filled your dressing room with roses?
Jen : Yeah... I do. You were so romantic back then, what happened to you?
Brad : Hey, I'm still romantic.
Jen : Yeah, right.
20 years ago, on the set of Friends :
Lisa : Jen, can you zip me up?
Lisa rushes towards Jen, holding her skirt up.
Jen : Sure, honey.
Brad : Am I interrupting?
Brad walks onto the set, joining them.
Jen : Oh, hi honey.
Lisa : Jen's just helping me with a wardrobe malfunction as you can see.
Brad : Oh, well that's...
Court : Brad, can I speak with you for a minute?
Brad : Uhm... yeah.
Court smiles at Jen before grabbing Brad's arm, dragging him to the other side of the room.
Lisa : What was that about?
Jen : I have no idea.
Court : It's ready.
Brad : You got the candles?
Courteney : Yeah, I spoke to one of the crew members and he got out and bought some.
Brad : Nice.
Jen looks over at Brad, giving him a confused look, which he ignores.
Court : She's gonna be really surprised.
Brad : You really think so?
20 minutes later :
Jen : I'm not putting this on my eyes.
Brad : C'mon Jen.
He takes the blindfold out of her hands, tying it around her head.
Brad : Have some trust in your husband.
Jen : Oh, I've made that mistake before.
Brad : Shut up.
He laughs before taking her hand, leading her down the hall.
Jen : Where are we going?
Brad : You'll see.
Jen : Please make sure I don't fall or...
Just as she's about to finish her sentence, she nearly trips over some cables, making Brad laugh.
Jen : Brad!
Brad : I've got you.
Jen : Brad, you know I'm claustrophobic right... this blindfold is kind of starting to...
Brad : Shh, we're almost there.
As they reach the door, Brad stops her.
Jen : Is this it?
Brad : Yeah.
Jen : Can I take these off now?
Brad : Hold on a minute, babe.
Jen sighs as Brad opens the door, walking her inside.
Brad : Ok... you can take it off now.
Jen removes her blindfold, before Brad turns her around.
Brad : Happy Valentine's day, baby.
With her mouth wide open, Jen walks around her dressing room in shock.
It's been filled with 1 500 red roses and on the wall there's petals spelling out "I love my wife".
Jen : Brad...
He wraps his arms around her waist, kissing her neck as tears start forming in her eyes.
Brad : Were you surprised?
Jen : Yes.
Barely able to get any words out, Jen leans her head back pressing her lips against his.
Jen : You did this?
Brad : With some help from Courteney, and the crew.
Jen : Oh, that's what that was all about.
Brad : Yeah.
He laughs, before walking over to the CD player in her room, pressing play.
Jen : Babe.
Brad : May I have this dance...
Jen laughs as he reaches his hand out, smirking.
Brad : Mrs. Pitt?
Jen : It would be my pleasure, Mr. Pitt.
2021, the night before Brad leaves for Belgium :
Jen : Here's your jeans.
Brad : Oh, thanks.
Jen throws them on the bed, sighing before sitting down.
Jen : I really thought we were done with packing for a while after we finished getting all your shit into the house.
Brad : Hey, yesterday you said you were glad we finally had moved in together.
Jen : Well yeah... but now I have to see you leave again anyways.
He presses his lips together, nodding.
Jen : How long are you staying in Belgium again?
Brad : Only for a few days.
Jen : Mhm.
Brad : I'll be back in LA before Wednesday.
He throws the jeans in his suitcase, before looking up at Jen, who's got a somber look on her face.
Brad : What?
Jen : Nothing.
Brad : Oh, c'mon.
Brad stands up, walking over to her before taking her hands.
Jen : I just wish we'd be able to celebrate Easter together.
Brad : I know, babe.
Jen : I mean when you're back you'll have to quarantine, and I've got the Freinds reunion that week...
He nods, sighing.
Jen : Which means I can't even see you when you get back.
Brad : I know, it's really shitty timing.
Jen : Yeah.
Brad : I really think you're gonna appreciate what I'm bringing home though.
Jen : I know.
Brad : I mean you've met Thomas and you've seen his work...
Jen : It's fabulous.
Brad : Right? Maybe I should bring something home for the nursery too?
Jen : Art for the nursery?
Brad : Yeah.
Jen : Isn't that a little over the top?
Brad : No... only the best for our daughter right?
Jen : Brad.
Jen rolls her eyes as he's still stuck up on them having a girl.
Jen : Just don't spend all our money on it, alright?
Brad : Oh, so it's our money now?
Brad laughs as Jen rolls her eyes.
Jen : Well, thankfully it's not until we're married.
He leans in and kisses her forehead, before heading back to his suitcase.
2 days later :
Jason : Do you know what's crazy?
Jen : What?
Jason : Next year, you'll have a little one here.
A smile forms on Jen's face as she realizes.
Jen : Yeah, that's...
Maple : Aunt Jen!
Maple runs up to them, with an impatient look on her face.
Jen : Yes, honey.
Maple : Can we look for eggs now?
Jen : I suppose that's fine, have you asked your mom?
Maple : Where is she?
Jen : In the kitchen.
Maple runs off as Jen smiles.
Jason : How far along is she now?
Jen : We're nearing the end of the first trimester.
Jason : Really?
Jen : Yeah, time's going by quickly.
Jason : How does Brad feel?
Jen : Good...
Jen laughs, thinking about their conversation before he left.
Jen : He actually seems to be even more excited than I am.
Jason : Oh?
Jen : He really wanted to buy an art piece for the nursery... like a real expensive one.
Jason : Well, that's only appropriate in the Aniston house.
Amanda : Are we gonna go egg hunting?
Amanda and the girls sneak up behind them, carrying baskets.
Jason : Sure.
Jen : Ok...
Jen bends down to Maple, clearing her throat.
Jen : The Easter bunny's been real generous with you this year.
Fran : Jen...
Jen : Shh...
Jason : The Easter bunny's real Fran.
Fran throws her father a look, while Maple's practically jumping up and down of excitement.
Jen : He's hidden them all over the garden...
Fran : You can find my eggs Maple.
Fran whispers in her sister's ear, before Jen bumps her nose.
Jen : Just for you.
The next day :
Jen : I'm glad the weather's good.
Brad : Yeah, I got lucky.
Jen : I bet it's cold.
Brad : It is.
Jen : Did you bring enough clothes?
Brad : Jen...
Brad rolls his eyes, laughing.
Brad : Anyway, I visited Thomas' exhibition today.
Jen : Yeah.
Brad : He's got some really good pieces.
Jen : Were you allowed to take any photos?
Brad : Yeah, I'll send you them.
Jen : I hope you didn't end up buying any art for the baby...
Brad : I didn't actually.
Jen : Good.
Brad : It's not really suited for a baby.
Jen : Right.
Brad : But I did find something else.
Jen : Yeah?
Brad : I visited this store down the street and I found an ideal crib.
Jen : A crib?
Brad : Yeah, I think you'd really like it.
He sends her a picture of it, while they're FaceTime.
Jen : Oh... I see what you mean.
Brad : Right.
Jen : The price is a little... stiff though.
Brad : Babe, don't worry about the price.
Jen rolls her eyes, laughing.
Brad : I'm getting it.
Jen : Well, at least we've got one less thing to worry about.
Brad : Right?
Jen : I've been looking at some wallpapers for the nursery.
Brad : Yeah?
Jen : But then I gave up cause' I realized I wasn't able to make a decision without you actually being here.
Brad : Oh, really?
Jen : Yeah.
Brad : You seemed to be more than able to do than when it came to the other rooms in the house.
Jen : Yeah, well you know this is different... this is ours.
Brad : Yeah... it is.
He smiles at her face, nodding.
Brad : Our baby.
Three days later :
Lisa : I'm excited to see the guys again.
Courteney : I know, me too.
Jen : Have y'all done your tests?
While on FaceTime with the girls, Jen throws herself down in her office chair.
Courteney : Did my first one yesterday.
Lisa : Me too.
Jen : Good.
Lisa : They're not very comfortable.
Jen : Tell me about it.
Jen laughs.
Courteney : So how are things over at your house Lisa?
Lisa : It's going good... we've been home a lot, but who hasn't?
Courteney : Right.
Lisa : But Jen... you've been unusually quiet lately. How are you?
Jen : Oh, you know...
Lisa : And how are things going with Brad?
Courteney : Jen...
Jen : Yeah.
Court gives her a well known look, letting her know she wants her to spill the latest.
Courteney : I think it's time to tell her.
Lisa : Tell me what?
Jen : Really?
Courteney : Yes.
Jen laughs, before moving the phone closer to her face.
Jen : Well...
Lisa : Jennifer!
Jen : Ok, me and Brad... are having a baby.
Lisa : What?!
Courteney : Yeah.
Lisa : What?
Jen : I know.
Lisa : I mean... what?!
They all laugh as Lisa gasps.
Lisa : Did you know about this Court?
Courteney : I did.
Lisa : Are you adopting or?
Jen : We're actually using a surrogate.
Lisa : Really?!
Courteney : Her egg and everything.
Lisa : Oh my god, Jennifer!
Jen : I know.
Lisa : This is... this is... BIG!
The day before they're shooting the Friends reunion :
While sitting in her living room, bored, with her dogs splayed out next to her, Jen's thinking about Brad.
Jen : Just 5 more hours now, Chesterfield.
And how she wishes he was sitting next to her.
Jen : It's just a few hours.
Massaging her feet, while they were watching TV.
Jen : Then again, it's just a few hours.
Or perhaps running his fingers through her hair.
Jen : I mean how much difference does that make?
Chesterfield gives her a questionable look, as she furrows her brow.
Jen : Fuck it.
Jen gets out of the couch, grabbing her keys before throwing her jacket on.
Jen : Mommy will be right back Clyde!
Waving at Clyde, she closes the door shut behind her before feeling her phone vibrate in her pocket.
Court : Hey.
In a rush, she walks over to her car.
Jen : Hey, I can't really talk right now...
Court : Are you outside?
Jen : Yeah...
Court : What are you doing?
Jen : Uhm...
Court : Jen.
Jen opens the car door, getting in before taking a deep breath.
Court : Was that the car door?
Jen : I'm going over to Brad's house.
Court : Right now?
Jen : Mhm.
Court : Isn't he in quarantine?
Jen : Well, he's out at midnight okay?!
Court : I know...
Jen : Like a few hours give or take won't matter. I haven't seen him in... a long time. I mean I've got to be allowed to go see my own fiancé, right?
Court : Jen, I'm not saying you're doing anything wrong.
Jen : Ok.
Court : Ok.
Jen : It just feels illegal you know.
Court : Well, it sort of is.
Jen : Don't say that!
Court laughs as she turns left.
Court : Just make sure the papz don't catch you.
Jen : Yeah, yeah.
Court : And also make sure you get there in time tomorrow.
Jen : Of course.
20 minutes later :
Jen parks outside Brad's house, getting out in a hurry.
Jen : If he's asleep right now, I swear...
Trying to check if the lights are still on, she tries to peek through the window while approaching the door.
Jen : Alright.
Jen turns her key, walking inside to be met by a silent hallway.
Jen : Hello?
Taking her jacket off, she throws it on the floor, before walking into the living room.
Jen : Brad?
Jen rushes up the stairs and down the hallway, before hearing whistling as she's nearing Brad's bedroom.
Jen : Honey?
Carefully, she opens the door to be met by Brad tossing rose petals all over the floor.
Brad : Jen?
He turns around, with a confused look on his face.
Brad : What are you doing here?
Jen : Oh my...
Brad : I didn't know you'd be home this early.
Brad walks over to her, laying his hand on her arm.
Brad : Well, now you've...
Jen : Oh my god! What is this?
With a shocked look on her face, she suddenly backs up.
Jen : What the hell are you doing Brad?!
Brad : What...
Jen : I left you alone for 1 week! 1 week... and this is what you do?!
Brad : C'mon.
Jen : Who have you invited over? Hm?
Brad : Jennifer.
Jen : No, you know what? I don't wanna know!
Jen throws her arms in the air, turning around before walking out of the room.
Brad : Hey!
He follows her, grabbing her arm while laughing.
Jen : What?!
Brad : Jen...
Jen : What is it?!
Brad : This is for you! This is all for you...
Jen's face drops as she realizes.
Brad : I'm doing all of this for you! For tonight... at midnight.
Jen : Brad...
Brad : Who did you even think I'd...
Jen : I don't know.
Jen laughs, shaking her head.
Jen : Sorry, I just...
Brad : Yeah.
Jen : I'm stupid.
Brad : Well... yeah.
He takes her hand, dragging her back into the bedroom.
Brad : See, I told you I could be romantic.
Jen nods, noticing the petals spelling out "I love my fiancé" on the wall.
Jen : Yeah... I suppose you can.
Grinning, she leans in and presses her lips against his.
Brad : What are you doing here this early though... I'm not out of quarantine for another 5 hours.
Jen : Well, I figured it's midnight in Belgium by now anyway, isn't it?
Brad smirks, wrapping his arms around her waist.
Brad : You're right actually.
Jen : Yeah?
Brad : I've missed you.
Jen : I've missed you too, babe.
Placing her lips on his once more, she starts tugging on his shirt.
Brad : Don't you have some important work to get to tomorrow?
Jen : Well, it's only 7.
Brad : I thought you were on Belgium time.
Jen : Only when it's appropriate.
Brad laughs, before pulling her back in.
