I decided to write the next chapter today. It's pretty short since I have
homework to do later and can't spend all my time doing this. Please read
and review. It's okay if you give me some ideas or criticism. It helps me
write better. And I also need some ideas on how to continue this. Ok this
takes place the day after my last fic left off. Monica told Chandler she
needed to think about it since she was already with Richard.
Monica is in her apartment by herself when Chandler walks in.
"Hey Mon." Chandler says in a barely audible tone.
"Hey." she whispers back.
"I should go. Shouldn't I? I mean you need more time to think and I don't want to bother you." He turned around to go back across the hall.
"No Chandler wait. I've already made my decision."
"Oh. Who'd you pick?" Chandler asked in a slightly hopeful tone.
Monica touched his arm. "I'm so sorry. I'm going to stay with Richard."
Chandler flinched as she said Richard's name. "Oh. Well I guess I should have saw that coming. After all he is the love of your life and will always be. I mean that's what everyone says."
"But they never knew about any of this."
"I guess it's better that they don't know. No one would be influencing your decision about who you should be with." he replied sadly with tears filling up his blue eyes.
Monica sighed. She never knew that choosing Richard would be this painful. It just broke her heart to see him so devastated. She could see the sad expression on his face, which made her eyes water. He must have had so much hope that she was going to pick him instead of Richard.
Chandler spoke again breaking Monica's train of thought. "I should go and I don't mean just for now. I have to leave New York. My job transferred me to Washington. You were going to be the reason for me to stay. So I guess there's nothing else left for me here. Go be with Richard. You already broke my heart. You've got nothing left to say to me." He said in a somewhat bitter way as slowly opened the door.
Those words made Monica's tears fall. She never knew he felt this strongly about her. He was her best friend. She couldn't lose him forever. He couldn't leave New York. "Don't go. Please stay." she pleaded.
"I have to. I can't stand to watch you and Richard together. I know it might seem selfish to you but it hurts so much just thinking about you two. My bags are already packed. Tell Joey and the rest of the gang that I'm sorry but I have to go. Also tell them I'll call when I get settled in Washington. Just remember I love you and I always will." With those words he swiftly left the room and Monica's life.
Monica burst into tears. She wasn't so sure that she had made the right decision after all. But she knew one thing for sure. She broke the heart of the most important man in her life and lost his friendship just as well. Monica ran to her room and shut the door. Then she fell back on the bed and cried herself to sleep, wishing that this day had never happened.
