Hmm... So I was wondering if you guys prefer to read stories in first person or third person. I have to continue this story in third person but for my next fanfic I thought it might be fun to do point of views. What do you think?
Anyway, here is the update you've all (supposedly and hopefully) been waiting for.
Disclaimer: Yep, I forgot this last chapter *shuffles nervously 'I'd just got off my flight – cut me some slack!' Well in case you were wondering Friends hasn't, doesn't and unfortunately will never belong to me. If it did then I wouldn't be posting this in 'fanfiction'.
A.N. / I know I said they were only slightly drunk but for the purposes of this chapter just pretend they were both very drunk! Also, in case you've forgotten Ross and Monica aren't brother and sister.
Monica Geller awoke to the vague sound of someone throwing up. She yawned and tried to open her eyes. Everything was blurry and suddenly some rather blue eyes came into focus. "Chandler?" her voice slurred and she could hear a faint buzzing. Suddenly, she retched and ran to the bathroom to succumb. She vomited and immediately felt better. Then, bending her head she drank some water straight from the tap.
Monica slowly walked to the couch and lay down on it, only to jump at the muffled sound of a strangled "Ouch!" She leapt off the couch and looked around to see Chandler. He looked just as exhausted as she felt. Chandler sat up slowly and looked into Monica's eyes. Then suddenly, at that precise moment they both remembered.
"NO!" They both gasped at once. What had they been thinking? How could they have? They had risked all of their friendship!
"Oh my God!" Monica exclaimed. "How drunk were we?"
"I don't know-"
"-I can't believe this. How could-"
"I know!" They were both completely panicking. Chandler, for his part was extremely embarrassed. What had possessed him to take advantage of his best friend? She had been drunk and depressed, very depressed. He looked up at her stricken expression and immediately broke eye contact. "I'm sorry Mon. I don't know what came over me. I never meant for this. I'm sorry. I'm so extremely sorry." Chandler gabbled on but Monica silenced him by putting a finger to his lips.
"I know Chandler. We were both drunk. It didn't mean anything. Can we please just forget this ever happened?" Monica cringed and added," I'm gonna go for a shower, okay?" Chandler nodded numbly. Little did they both know that it had meant so much and that they would never forget what had happened.
I can't believe I slept with Chandler. He's blaming himself. How could he blame himself? It was my fault. Doesn't he remember? A million questions were bubbling through Monica's mind. But then, I slept with Chandler. Chandler Bing. That guy I've had a crush on FOREVER. What should I do?
Wow. I slept with Monica. Mon. My best friend. She's been my best friend forever. Can we ever go back to being friends? I know I won't forget. I've always liked her and now... Now this has happened I don't know what I'll do.
~.~
Awkward silence hung in the air as the two attempted to make small talk at the table. They were both clearly embarrassed and even Chandler couldn't come up with some sarcastic comment.
"So, the others should be coming home in a couple of hours," Monica checked her watch.
Chandler nodded. "Hey. Listen Mon, this isn't gonna affect our friendship is it? 'Cause I don't know what I'd do without ya."
Monica shook her head," I don't know what I'd do without you either." She smiled at him and hugged him uneasily. She wasn't sure how to act around him. Chandler smiled back and kissed her cheek. Monica reacted almost instantly, she kissed him. Not a drunken, please take advantage of me kiss but a real, genuine I care a lot about you kiss. Chandler pulled away, startled. Then, seeing her sapphire blue eyes shining with tears he leaned in and opened his mouth slightly. They closed their eyes and then-
"-Hey guys! What's up?" Ross opened the apartment door and grinned at his two friends who had blushed bright red and broken apart. (Yup, trust Ross to ruin the moment!)
"Hey Ross! You're back a little early?" Monica stood up to hug her friend.
"Oh, yeah! The flight was much quicker than I'd expected. Hey Chandler! How's it going man?"
"Hey Ross! Good to see ya dude!" They clapped each other on the back and Ross sat down at the table too.
"Hey Mon, your parents weren't too bad were they?" Ross added to Monica, knowing how much she dreaded those visits.
Both Monica and Chandler blushed red again at the mention of Jack and Judy Geller. "Yeah, well. You know how it is. Just the same old, same old. Hey, do you want to grab some coffee at Central Perk in about an hour?"
"Yeah, thanks! I just need to unpack. Rachel said her flight was delayed but Phoebe and Joey should be here soon. See ya then!" Ross opened the apartment door and grinned at them.
"See ya Ross," Monica and Chandler said in unison. They laughed slightly and Ross shut the door, leaving them in peace at last.
There you go. Now, a 6 letter word for you: REVIEW!
