okay....im goin out on a limb here and starting a fic that is a completely
different genre from wut i usually write. but i heard the song and i just
knew it was meant for a fic. but anyway, this fic is still c and m (not
goin on out a limb that much!), and the song is called "hear me you", but
jimmy eat world. it probably wont be featured much in this first chapter,
but it will make many apperances throughout the story. so here it is- my
new fic....and all you need to know is that it's around season 10, so
monica and chandler are married, and monica is two months pregnant (pretend
TOW The Fertility Test didn't happen). and two other things: rachel and
ross are married (emma's about two) and phoebe is married to mike.
disclaimer: the characters aren't mine, and neither is the song. also, any lines i use from episodes of the show aren't mine either.
"What do you mean, you're moving?" Joey exclaimed, not believing what he'd just heard.
"Look, Joe, it's not that we don't love it here, it's just......" Chandler said, struggling to find words to convey his message.
"No, there's no excuses. How could you leave us all?"
"Well, that's the thing," said Chandler, "Ross and Rachel moved out to the suburbs with Emma, so it's not like they're around. And once Mike and Phoebe have kids, they'll probably move, too."
"But not to Connecticut!" Joey yelled, "They'll at least stay in New York! Like Ross and Rachel!"
"Joey, there's nothing I can do! My job's transferring me. This is the first time in my life I've had a job I care about, and this transfer is a once in a lifetime oppurtunity. You've got to understand."
"No, Chandler, I don't understand," Joey fumed, "How does Monica feel about this, huh? Does she understand?"
"Well," Chandler said uneasily, "Yeah, she does. We're both looking for a change once the baby comes. We don't want to raise our child in the city."
"So you're moving out of the state?" Joey screeched.
"Joe, it's not even that far! Connecticut is like, three hours away from here!"
"So? It's still not gonna be the same. We can't have coffee together anymore. No more pizza nights. None of that."
"Joe," Chandler said, exasperated, "Things can't stay the same forever. I'm not a bachelor anymore like you. I'm somebody's husband and about to become somebody's father. I can't live like you do."
"Are you saying I don't live the right way?"
"No! It's just.....we're different, that's all. And if you haven't noticed, Ross is different now, too. It's not just me."
"Yeah, well, Ross was never the same to me as you were. We were like brothers."
"And we still can be!"
"No," Joey said, "No, we can't. You move, Chandler, and that's it. We're through."
"Are you serious?" Chandler said, his voice shaky.
But Joey didn't answer. He simply walked out of the apartment and slammed the door.
Okay....I know this is really confusing right now, but the beginning of practically all my fics are confusing! But it will make sense. And I know Joey's overreacting a bit, but, well, if you think about it, he's got his reasons. But anyway, I'm very hesitant about this fic and whether or not you'll like it, so please REVIEW! tell me if i should continue or just dump it.
