Finally, the long awaited part nine!!! Just to being you back up to date, here what happened in my other fics:
Monica was depressed for a while since her and Richard broke up, that she considered taking pills to end her life. Luckily, before she could, Chandler intercepted and a huge argument came between them (remember, their just friends, nothing more!) Monica fled the scene to Central Park where she was attacked. After the others finding out what had happened, Monica and Chandler make up. Soon after, Monica realizes her deepest fear, losing Chandler, her best friend. After reassuring her that he wasn't going to go anywhere, they all take a trip to the carnival, where Monica learns her future. After returning, Chandler gets some bad news. Every time he tried telling Monica that he was moving away, it always ended in a fight. Days later, the whole group is at the airport, wishing Chandler off, Monica being the saddest. Chandler promised he would call everyday and left. But right before boarding, he took Joey aside and asked him, "Just promise me something Joe. "What?" "Just promise me that you will look after Monica. I need to know if she's going to be okay. Please, just promise me that" Chandler pleaded. After Joey reassured him that he would, he finally took off, leaving Monica to cry her heart out right in the middle of the airport.
Okay, here is the next one and it's been a week since Chandler has left and he has called everyday, just like he promised to.
DISCLAMER: I DO NOT OWN THESE CHARACTERS. THEY BELONG TO NBC: CRANE, KAUFFMAN, AND BRIGHT. IM JUST USING THEM FOR ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSES AND SO YOU CANNOT SUE ME:)
Scene: Monica and Rachel's
No one is there as the camera pans over the apartment and stops at the door.
Monica tiredly opens the door and almost starts crying when there is no one in the apartment. She had the lousiest day at work, and now, no one was here to greet her. She threw her purse down and flopped down on the couch, just waiting for him to come home. But of course, he wouldn't.
It's not like I want a boyfriend, she thought. Just a friend. All I want is a friend, she pleaded to no one in particular. Someone to share my pain with, someone to share my joy with, my secrets, someone who'll just be there.
And that friend is not here, Monica noted remorsefully.
Meanwhile, in Los Angeles…
Chandler opened the door to his apartment and noticed the darkness and emptiness. He sighed. He flicked on the lights, and the room flooded in brightness. But that brightness couldn't fill his heart. He missed the gang, especially Monica. He missed Joey's constant need for sandwiches or Bay watch, Ross's long and no point talks, Rachel's problems over little things, Phoebe's strange ways, and above all, Monica. He missed everything about her. The way she wore her hair, her fresh smell, the way she talked, comforted him, the way she cooked, the way she looked…all the time…
Not once did Chandler consider that he might be in love with her. Not once…
2 weeks later
Scene: Monica and Rachel's; everyone is there and Monica is in her room.
Ring! Ring!
Ross goes over and picks up the phone
"Hey Chandler! What's up man? (Listens) Yeah, everyone's here. So how's LA? (Listens) How's work? (Listens) Yeah, everybody's great. (Listens) Okay, hold up.
To Joey, Phoebe, and Rachel: Chandler wants to say hi! I'll put him on the speaker
Everyone (but Monica): Hey Chandler! /Hi / sup?
Ross picks up the phone again. "Hey man, its me again" (listens) (Lowers his voice) ummm…She's not doing so well, man. I don't know, she's-
Monica comes out of her room. "Is that Chandler? Let me talk to him!" She races to the phone.
Time Lapse
"…Bye Chandler." Monica sighs happily and hung up the phone. It felt good to hear his voice. For the past 2 weeks, he hadn't called. Sure, it wasn't like he was obligated to call, but it was nice to hear his voice every now and then.
It's starting already, Monica miserably thought. Soon, he's going to get married, have 2 perfect children, live in a huge white house with a picket fence surrounding the perimeter, and colorful flowers in the garden… Why can't I have that?
Scene: Chandler's Apartment
Chandler cheerfully hung up the phone. After any talk with Monica, he was always in a happier mood. Here in L.A, he hasn't meet that many new people and friends, considering his work life took most out of him. That was the reason why he hadn't called in a while. He sighed heavily and leaned against the window (like TOW Eddie Moves In)
Scene: Monica is also leaning against her window and we hear "How do I live" by Trisha Yearwood playing in the background as Chandler and Monica stare out in the world…
(Author's Note: You should really listen to the lyrics, it has a more stronger effect. BTW, thanks Steph)
How do I
Get through one night without you
If I have to live without you
What kind of life would that be
(Montages: Their all of my series Monica hugging Chandler after he gave her the bracelet)
Oh and I
I need you in my arms
Need you to hold
(Monica slamming the door in his face)
Your my world
My heart
My soul
(Chandler finds the pills and them arguing)
If you ever leave
Baby you would take away everything
(Monica being comforted by him after the attack)
Good in my life
Hmm without you
There'd be no sun in my sky
There'd be no love in my life
There'd be no one left for me
And I
Baby I don't know what I would do
I'd be lost if I lost you
(Monica clinging to him when she realizes her fear)
If you ever leave
Baby you would take away everything
Real in my life
And tell me now
How do I live without you
I want to know
(Them at the carnival)
How do I breathe without you
If you ever go
How do I ever
Ever survive
How do I
How do I
Oh how do I live
If you ever leave
(Chandler trying to tell Monica the bad news)
Baby you would take away everything
Need you with me
Baby could you know
That you're everything
Good in my life
And tell me now
How do I live without you
I want to know
(Her shouting at him when the promise was broken)
How do I breathe without you
If you ever go
How do I ever
Ever survive
How do I
How do I
Oh how do I live
How do I live
Without you baby…
(Both hugging at the airport as Chandler leaves and Monica starts crying…)
Monica slowly wiped the tear that fell down from her face and just wished he would come home…
Chandler swallowed painfully as a tear rolled down his face. He had never cried before. Not when his parents were getting a divorce, he would just hide himself in the closet and think about the latest Superman comic. He didn't cry when his parents weren't there on his first day of school, or when his grandmother and pet bird died, nothing. He couldn't understand, why, all of a sudden, he was getting sentimental over things like this. Sure, his friends were there, but they weren't really that close anyway…
"Oh what am I saying? Of course we were that close!" Chandler spoke to himself. "What I wouldn't do with just ONE, just one, game of foosball with Joey, or another cup of coffee from the place were his friends first came united. We're family! All of us! We should stick together! The six if us… And here I am talking to my self in a empty apartment…"
Chandler chuckled and thought…
"I miss you, Mon…"
Scene: Central Perk
"No way!" Ross exclaimed.
"Way!" Joey said, happily.
"What's going on, you guys?" Rachel asked as she sat down to take her break.
"Ohohoh!!! Joey is going to co-star in a movie with Al Pacino!!!" Phoebe exclaimed.
"But weren't you already in a movie but then they kicked you out?"
"Yeah so?" Joey asked. "This time, I'm the evil dude person thing, and this time, I don't have to show them my butt!
A silence insured them. It was like their waiting for Chandler to quirk up one of his sarcastic comments. Nothing followed.
"So, anyway, Joe," Monica said disappointed, "When are you going to start filming?"
As Joey talked, Monica sat there thinking. The only reason she asked that question was the uncomfortable moment that Chandler was supposed to fill. But he's not here. She never knew that such a close friend could have such a strong impact on her life. Lately, all it seemed like she was either talking to Chandler on the phone, or thinking about him, or dreaming about him. She once overhead Rachel and Phoebe talking, but the only words she could pick out were…"Chandler…Monica…love" Of course that wasn't true. He's my best friend, nothing more. So what if were a little close? Is that bad? Monica thought. She glanced down at her watch and saw that Chandler was going to call her in a few minutes. They had agreed to call each other a certain time of the day, considering how expensive the phone charges were these days. Monica quickly fled out of the coffee shop.
"Let me guess, Chandler's going to call." Phoebe stated. The others nodded.
Scene: A month later
"Bill, bill, bill, bill- "Chandler said as he flipped through his mail, carelessly tossed it on the table. If it were Monica, she would have probably paid them the second she opened it, Chandler thought. Monica… He felt really guilty. He hadn't called her in over a week and they usually talked twice a day. Sure his phone bill was huge, but Monica's voice was priceless. But she hasn't called me either! He childishly argued.
Scene: Another 3 weeks later (I know, I'm moving fast!)
Monica started at what was in front of her. A letter. But not just any letter, a letter from Chandler. She suddenly became angry with him. After all, he hasn't been calling lately and now all of a sudden, a letter. But her heart got to the best of her as she carefully opened it. She glanced at the piece of writing and chuckled. He still writes like a little boy, messy, yet the spirit of a little child.
Scene: It has now officially been exactly one year since Chandler has moved away. Monica somehow lost contact with Chandler, and so has he. So, they haven't talked for a whole year.
Chandler walked aimlessly through Hollywood. He didn't care about the thousands of people, or lights, or celebrities, or even the stars on the streets. All he cared was about the people he missed most. He had tried to go to somewhere to keep his mind off the fact that Monica hadn't called or wrote him anything. But Hollywood didn't do that.
Monica slammed the front door and threw herself on the couch. Her date had been awful. He kept talking about himself, and after some conversation, she found out he was gay. No wonder he kept glancing at the waiter.
Why can't I find anyone? Monica thought. This past year has been hell. She only dated 3 guys, whom of which weren't right for her, but the biggest heartstring was the situation with Chandler. They hadn't talked for a whole YEAR. After he wrote the letter, she wrote back but never got a response. In the letter, she had explained that there was something wrong with the phone company so they changed her and Rachel's number. Chandler never wrote back, but he could've called, Monica thought miserably. But he didn't do that, and she didn't either.
Chandler finally made up his mind. He knew what he would have to do in order to make things right between him and Monica. He hurriedly catches a cab…
Scene: 3 hours later
Monica is asleep in her and Rachel's apartment on the sofa. Someone slowly opens the door, and chuckled to himself. This door is never locked, he thought. He stopped in his tracks when he saw the person that he loved on the sofa, sleeping. Oh well, he thought. I can tell her later. He quietly made his way back to the door and shut it firmly.
Scene: 4 hours later
Someone else opens the door and sees that she is asleep. He quietly makes her way over to the sofa and noticing that she is shivering, he goes into her room and comes out with a blanket. He wraps that around her as she clings to it. A smile forms on her lips as he watches. He kneels down to her and pecks her on the cheek. He rises and makes his way out the door.
WHO WERE THOSE 2 GUYS? (BTW, they are 2 DIFFERENT people)
FIND OUT IN THE NEXT ONE, WHICH BY THE WAY WILL BE MY LAST FANFIC IN THIS SERIES.
