Chandler Bing sat in the kitchen of his friend Monica Geller's apartment. He was glad he could hang out with his friends before he went to a meeting at the World Trade Center. He was going with one of his best friends since he knew from when he was a child. Shea Parker. He had met her when they where in school together. Although he had lost touch with her when her family moved to Toronto, Canada. He had learned that Shea was now a WWF superstar and was married to her boss' son Shane McMahon. The rest of the gang had gotten to know Shea and liked her. And, along with Chandler, got to know Shane.
"Hey, Chandler, are Shea and Shane going to the World Trade Center with you?" asked Ross.
"Yeah, they have a meeting their as well. Shane's dad, Vince, wanted him and Shea to sit in on it because they where in town visiting us anyway. So he figured it would be easier." Chandler answered.
"Oh, well, I guess that makes sense. I mean its not like he can be bothered to come all the way out here. He is probably to busy making sure my sister keeps up her end of the show." Shane said stepping into the apartment 20.
"Vince is always making sure Stephanie does the right thing. It's really annoying. Why doesn't he do that with you?" Shea asked sitting down next to Chandler.
"Well, do your parents like Greg better then you?" asked Phoebe.
"My parents are dead. Greg is my older brother; its only me and him left. Well, now I have Shane and his family." Shea informed them. The whole room was silent; no one knew what to say. They may have known Shea for a good year and a half, but she never told them that.
"Look, lets not sit here and dwell on that fact. Lets talk about something else." Shea turned to Joey and asked, "How's the acting going, Joey?"
"Um…it's going okay. I haven't gotten anything big, but I have some parts in a commercial. But I am hoping one day I will be able to get my break. Like I did before when I was Dr. Drake." Joey said happily.
"I hope you do to, sweetie." Rachel said walking into the room. She greeted everyone and sat next to Ross on the couch. He kissed her on the cheek.
"Dude, do you really have to do that now we just ate." Chandler joked and kissed Monica on the cheek.
"Look whose talking!" Ross said.
Chandler looked down at his watch and noticed it was 7:00am; they had to be in the South tower by 7:30am for their meetings. Both Shane and Chandler had their meetings in the south tower. They where both on floor 61st floor of the south tower.
"We better get going we don't want to be late." Chandler said.
Everyone said goodbye. Chandler kissed Monica and left with Shea and Shane. Little did the gang know that there lives would be turned upside down on this day. September 11, 2001.
