Surprisingly, the ride had been quiet. Monica had fallen asleep, and Rachel and Phoebe talked among them selves, ignoring the conversation about one night stands that the boys were having. When they got there, they unloaded the care and went inside. "Ok, so Pheebs you can room with me, Ross and Joey can room together, and Chandler and Mon, you don't mind rooming together do you?" Rachel asked sweetly. "Uh...no, not at all...that's fine." Chandler answered, carrying his bags upstairs. Monica just sighed and followed after him. Phoebe gave Rachel a thumbs up sign and than walked into the bathroom. "So..Rach.do you think this is gonna work out?" Joey asked her quietly, so Ross wouldn't hear. She shrugged. She wanted it to work, but what if this just makes it worse? Phoebe might have been right.
"Ya know I can just sleep on the floor if you want." Chandler said putting his bag down. "Don't be ridiculous..the bed's big enough for us to share..plus the others will probably think something's up if you're on the floor." HE sat on the bed. "What IS up anyway? I mean with us.." She sat down next to him. "There is no us, remember? You made you're choice. and choose her. I actually thought for a little while that this was the real thing," she smiled at herself. "that we'd..maybe even stay together. but than she came back..Janice came back. and you choose her." He looked at her. "Monica, I'm sorry. I made a mistake." She looked at him, "Well that's the beauty of hindsight." "I'm trying to apologize here. I'm trying to..get back what we had." "What we had? Chandler what we had was a 'fling'. no one even knew about it, well except for Joey. But if hadn't figured it out would you have ever told him?" He didn't answer, he just stared at the floor. "I thought so. Maybe you're scared to be a new relationship, maybe you're afraid ill reject you but I can't reject you. you're too quick for me." He looked up at her, "I didn't reject you, Monica! you're being dramatic!" "you didn't REJECT me?? Please! Chandler you rejected me the second Janice threw a glance in your direction! if she hadn't come running back to you, we'd still be doing whatever it is we were doing. And I'm sorry but I can't stand around waiting on you and Janice. You say you don't have relationships and that you're lonely..but you're never going to find love if you don't let go of the past. She isn't going to stick around forever. you know that." "Don't start getting on Janice's back. you don't even know half of the story here, its none of your business." She walked to the door and started to open it. "Right, I'm just the friend." When she opened the door, she saw Phoebe, Rachel Joey and Ross staring at her.
"WHAT?!" Ross said yelling at her. "Ross. calm down it's not what you think." "Did you sleep with him?" She nodded. "Than it is what I thought.. Chandler you're my best friend, what were you thinking?" Chandler stood up. "I don't have to take this Ross. you have no idea what you're talking about." Joey stepped in next to Ross. "But I do. you and Monica were sleeping together than Janice came back and you dumped Monica." Monica and Chandler gasped. "JOEY you promised not to tell anyone!" Chandler yelled. "Yeah well Monica's my friend and you're hurting her! Janice was the one who left you broken hearted when she went back to her ex-husband." Phoebe and Rachel nodded. "Guys, this is between Chandler and i." Monica said looking down. "Well, fine. But let me say this. Chandler I have never seen you look at anyone the way you look at Monica. and I've never seen you happier. And if you're too blind to see that she's the one, you don't deserve her anyway." Joey said. Than he turned around and walked away. Ross, rachel and phoebe just turned and walked away. "I..i just need some time to think." Chandler said, walking out.
Monica walked to the bed and laid down.

Well I've sure enjoyed the rain
but I'm looking forward to the sun
you have to feel the pain
when you lose the love you gave someone
I thought the now the time
would take away these lonely tears
I hope you're doin fine on your own
but where do I go from here?
cuz without you I'm not ok
and without you I've lost my way
my heart's stuck in second place
whoa whoa, without you
I never thought id be
lyin here without you by my side
it seems unreal to me
that life you promised was a lie
you made it look so easy
turning love into memories
I guess you got what you wanted
but what about me?
cuz without you I'm not ok
and without you I've lost my way
my heart's stuck in second place
whoa whoa, without you
Somebody try to tell my head
to try to tell my heart
that I'm better off without you
cuz baby I cant live.....
cuz without you I'm not OK
and without you I've lost my way
my heart's stuck in second place
whoa whoa, without you
After about an hour, Monica decided to take a walk on the beach. She left the house and began walking across the sand. She looked out at the water. It looked so calm and peaceful. She felt terrible about yelling at Chandler. he was trying to make up with her, and she pushed him away. She had probably blown all her chances. Than again, she felt terrible about feeling terrible. He was the one who left her, she should have yelled at him. "Hey.." She turned her head and saw Chandler. "Hi.." "Listen. Mon, I know you're mad at me. I'm sorry. i..i was scared. I was scared of something new. and when Janice came back..i went for it. Because that was something I knew, it wasn't new or scary.." "So you go back to something that is the same, but you the ending is just going to leave you upset and alone? because that's how it ends every time." He looked down "I know." "Chandler, I want to be with you. I mean I thought this was what I wanted. For you to.. see me as beautiful..and to love me like you love her. But I don't wanna be someone who picks up the pieces every time you and Janice fall apart. I cant do that." He took her hand, and looked at her. "Monica.. i do see you as beautiful. and..i love you. but not the way I love her." Monica got a pained look on her face, and just look back at to the water. "Because, the truth is, I don't love her at all. You are beautiful. and I love you. As soon as I had lost you, I realized it. I missed you, even thought I could've seen you anytime I wanted. that night when I stayed at your house was the best night of my life. And all we did was sleep. I'm in love with you. and I don't want to hide it from anyone. Not from of friends, or your parents...and especially not from you." He looked into her eyes to see what her reaction would be. She turned and took his hand and linked it with hers. She looked at him from a second, and than leaned up and kissed him. HE was shocked, but he kissed her back. He pulled away and saw her smile at him. He hugged her, and knew that from that moment on, he'd spend the rest of his life with her.

i can stand with the weight
of the world on my shoulders
i can fight with the toughest
of the tough
i can laugh in the face of
all my insecurities
anytime, anywhere, anything
im strong enough
im carelessly lost in your touch,
im completely defensive
baby its almost too much,
im helplessly hopelessly
breathlessly falling in love
so let consequence do what it will
to us, i dont care
let the stars stand as witness
to it all,
say the word tonight
and ill follow you anywhere
i just cant pretend anymore
i'm too sturdy to fall
cause when you're holdin me like this,
im carelessly lost in your touch,
im completely defensive
baby its almost too much,
im helplessly hopelessly
breathlessly falling in love
i am not afraid, i am not afraid
im carelessly lost in your touch,
im completely defensive
baby its almost too much,
im helplessly hopelessly
breathlessly falling in love
