I would like to thank my awesome reviewer for reviewing chapter one. :) And now I bring to you, Chapter 2! Hope you enjoy this one!


Everybody was gathered in the restaurant, trying to get to know their new friend, Charlie. Callie had decided to stay silent and listen to the others, since she wasn't really sure what to say. She took a quick drink of her water.

"Well, i like learning about the different types of dinosaurs," Charlie said, which caught Ross's attention. "I find them to be very interesting," he went on. He glanced over at Monica and smiled.

Callie tuned the rest of what he was saying out, and started thinking about other stuff. Like what was up with the way he smiled at Monica just now? She shook her head to clear it. Maybe she was just seeing things or something. She glanced down at her plate that was still full of food, then started eating.

She decided to glance around at the others. Ross looked intrigued because Charlie liked dinosaurs too, Rachel looked a bit smitten, Phoebe seemed to be chewing her hair for some reason, Monica was unaware that Charlie seemed to have a thing for her, and Joey was silently eating his food. She lastly glanced over towards Chandler, whom was just listening in silence. She sighed, then went back to eating.


The rest of the evening went like that, until they decided to head back to the apartment to hang out. "That was so delicious!" Monica was saying, as she walked through the door.

The others agreed, then they sat down around the couch.

"So, Charlie, we're going to another game tomorrow night if you want to come?" Ross invited him, still excited that he would finally have someone to talk too, ignoring the glare that Joey and Chandler shot him.

Charlie smiled. "Sure, I would love too! It will give us a chance to bond with each other."

Rachel smiled at that. "Good, maybe we can all eight be friends." She stood up, yawning. "But for tonight, I'm sleepy. So I think I will go to bed. Good night, guys!" Without waiting for an answer, she walked into her room and closed the door.

Phoebe yawned. "I'm sleepy too, but I'm not ready to leave yet."

Ross grinned. "Great! We will spend time at the game tomorrow then. I am going to go home and get ready for it." He glanced towards Rachel's closed door and sighed, before walking out of the apartment.

Callie thought a moment. "Hey, Pheebs, we could have a sleepover if you want?"

Phoebe thought a moment. "I guess we could do that."

Monica yawned tiredly. "Well, sleepover or no sleepover, I'm off to bed," she gave Chandler a kiss, before walking towards her room.


Charlie woke up the next morning. After saying good night to the others, he had left and fallen asleep on the couch in Apartment 19. He glanced at his watch and saw that it was 6:00 AM, then decided to get up.

He glanced towards his brother's room, then shook his head, as he decided to make himself some breakfast. He wanted to talk to Monica before the others got up, or at least so that he could convince her why she should be with him.

After he quickly ate his breakfast, he went across the wall and knocked on the door.

Monica answered it, wearing an apron. "Oh, hi Charlie!" She said. "What's up?"

Charlie thought a moment. "Hey, want to go for a quick walk with me? I need someone to show me the city."

Monica smiled. "Sure, I would love too." She took her apron off, then grabbed her jacket. "I had just finished breakfast anyways." She silently closed the door back. "Come on, I need to be back in an hour though, because that's when the others come over."

He nodded. "Sure thing."

She led the way out of the apartment building. "I hate walking around in silence, so what would you like to talk about?" She asked slipping her jacket on.

He thought a moment. "Let's talk about you. Are you happy with Chandler? Ever gonna get married?" He started asking her all kinds of questions.

She nodded. "Yah, I'm happy with him. And one day I'm sure we will get married, I am just waiting for him. He has a problem with commitment." Her smile widened. "But I'm not worried because I know he loves me just like I love him."

He fell silent after that, thinking about his next move. "Oooh, let's go walking in the woods over there," he suggested. "You know, and just talk and stuff?"

She smiled thoughtfully. "Sure, we can do that."

They walked through the woods. Charlie saw his opportunity. He grabbed her arm to stop her from walking. "Mon, ever since I met you, I have been attracted to you. But I didn't want to act on my feelings since your with Chandler and all. But I just can't hold them in any longer.." He leaned over and kissed her lips.

Monica quickly pushed him away from her. "What are you doing there? I love Chandler and you know that!" She backed away from him. "I don't love you, and this just could never happen."

Charlie was still holding her arm. "Come on, Mon. He doesn't have to know about this." He pulled her back towards him, then pushed her into a tree so that she had no where to go.


Callie woke up to breakfast being on the table, so she figured Monica was already up. "Mon?" She called out, then went to fix her a plate. She wondered briefly if Monica was with Chandler, maybe they had gone somewhere or something. She sat down at the table to eat, then Rachel and Phoebe eventually joined her.

"Where's Mon?" Rachel asked curiously.

Callie shrug. "I don't know, I just figured she may have went somewhere with Chandler." She answered, then put her empty plate in the sink.

Then the door opened, and Joey walked in followed by Ross and Chandler. "Yay! Breakfast!" Joey squealed, then fixed himself a plate and sat down to eat it.

Callie glanced over at Chandler in confusion. "I thought you and Monica had gone somewhere, because she wasn't here when I got up, but the breakfast had already been put on the table."

Chandler shook his head. "She wasn't with me.. did she leave a note or anything?"

Before anyone could answer him, the door opened and Monica staggered in. Her cheeks were tear streaked and her clothes looked torn.

"Mon!" Chandler and Ross both hurried over to her, while the others crowded around.

Monica wrapped her arms tightly around Chandler's neck. She was shaking too bad to speak.

Chandler slowly led her over to the couch, then sat down beside her. "Mon? Sweetie?"

Ross sat on her other side, rubbing her back in comfort. "Mon, what happened?"

Callie sat down on the table beside the couch, listening to them.

Monica shivered again but she was ready to talk. "Ch.. Charlie come by earlier.. he had.. had asked me if.. if I wanted to take a walk, so I.. I said sure. Well, we were walking in the woods.. when he just for.. forced himself on me.." she broke down into uncontrollable sobs.

Phoebe gasped. "That's why his aura was off when we first met him!"

Chandler pulled her closer to him. "He won't get away with doing that," he whispered to her. "I promise you."


Its a little rushed I know, but I just had to write this part in here, it had to be said. This story probably won't be very long, and I will try to finish it. No promises though. Welp, follow, favorite, comment, or all three. :)

Tall, Out!
