YOU'RE INVITED!
WHAT: Reunion
WHERE: Monica and Chandler's old place
WHEN: May 6, 2005
RSVP: Ross and Rachel Gellar.
"Wow...Ross and Rachel really did get married," Monica said, slowly closing the invitation.
"Really? It's a shame we can never find a baby-sitter," Chandler said, trying to calm Erica and Jack down.
"Should we go?" Monica asked. Because of the lack of baby-sitters in the area, Monica and Chandler barely got to go out. After a few months of failed plans with the rest of their friends, phone calls to make plans slowly stopped coming. Now they had barely heard from anyone for almost six months.
"Honey, yes. A year ago, we would have been miserable without them," Chandler replied, "Besides, I miss Joey!"
So they made up their minds. A few weeks later, they climbed the stairs of their old building. No one had moved into the old apartment, because apparently it was "too purple."
As they got to the landing between Joey's apartment and the now vacant one, Monica began to silently weep. Maybe it was out of regret for not making enough effort to see her friends, maybe it was all of the memories flooding back, or maybe it was just relief to be back there. Whatever the case, Chandler understood, and they both stood in the hallway, hugging and crying.
Joey came out of his apartment, saw his crying friends, and joined in the pitiful hug. Soon, Rachel, Ross and Phoebe came out of the old apartment to see what the noise was, and all joined in the hug.
After almost half an hour of this crying, hugging, and now laughter, Joey suggested that they actually go inside the apartment. Phoebe had to sit down, because she was very pregnant, and so they headed inside.
It was exactly as they had left it, only much dustier and stuffier. Monica reached into one of the kitchen cabinets, found that a dust rag had been left there, and hastily began cleaning. Rachel and Joey went into Joey's apartment to get chairs and tables, and soon the old place got the welcoming atmosphere it always had.
After Monica got some food going in the oven, and everyone was comfortable, they all began talking at once. Conversations were getting mixed up, no one could understand each other. Monica suggested that they take turns talking about the story of their year, telling all details. She insisted that Ross and Rachel go first, since their marriage was such a big event. Everyone agreed, and got ready to listen.
