Hi guys. I really appreciate all of the reviews. I just want to say one thing before I start the fic, I value everyone's opinions and want to her them but don't start slamming me if you don't like something about it when you haven't even read the whole thing. I don't make rude comments when I review other people's fics and I don't appreciate people doing it to me. I think constructive criticism is good and can be helpful but I don't want to hear if your just gonna be all bitchy about it. Thank you.

Okay here it goes.

Where we left off..

" Chandler, we need to talk…" Monica says.

" Oh,no. I don't like the sound of that."

" I found out something today while talking to Rachel and Phoebe."

" And what's that?"

" I know that Kathy is moving here to be with you." They both stand in silence, trying to find what to say. Monica finally asks, " Why didn't you tell me?"

" I… I don't know. I was stupid." He answers trying not to show that for a split second he was actually going to choose Kathy.

" Listen, I want you to promise me that you for the next few minutes, have to be quiet and let me talk…okay?"

" Uh, sure…"

" Okay. Do you remember when you where dating Janice and me and Joey caught her kissing her ex-husband? Just nod. " He nods but is afraid of the direction this conversation is going in. " You know how it felt when you let her go so that their family could be a whole again? Well I fell the same way right now. I will always love you as a friend. We will always be best friends but I want you to go back to Kathy."

" Alright. A few minutes are up. Mon, you've got to—."

" Chandler, you promised." Chandler stops talking and tries to study her face. He usually could tell what she is thinking but right now, he didn't.

" Okay fine. Continue."

" I know she was the love of your life and I don't wanna stand in your way. I don't want to be the woman that Mike hates because his parents aren't together. That night in London was great. But that is exactly what it was…just a night. You have a second chance with Kathy here…take it," She walks to the door and opens it. " I think you should just go."

" Monica,"

" Chandler please," She interrupts. " Just go." Not knowing what else to do, he walks out. Monica closes the door behind him and breaks down into a fit of tears. She lies on the couch and cries over another failed relationship. She could only wonder, how could this happen to her? Why am I the only one ending up hurt here? Chandler might be but I had to do it. He and Kathy were meant to be together. Why couldn't I be meant for him? Kathy's one lucky bitch to have Chandler. And I have…no one. Yet again.

After he walks out and Monica closes the door, Chandler just wanders aimlessly around the city, walking wherever his feet took him. This left him alone with his thoughts once again. What should I do? Do I run back in there and beg her to take me back or do I follow her wishes and go back to Kathy? Wait a minute, did she really just break up with me because of Kathy or was there another intention behind it? Well the other night she said that she saw a future for us but was she telling the truth? What if she doesn't want to be with me and is using the Kathy thing as an excuse? She said London was great but that it was only one night. Does she regret agreeing to be together afterwards? Maybe she's right. Not about London, because that was the best night of my life and the times afterward. Maybe I should be with Kathy. Yea, if she won't give us a chance then I should go to Kathy for my son's sake. Chandler decides to walk home but instead walks into Central Perk praying that his friends are not there.

"Oh hey guys." He says but then realizes that they are not alone. "Hi Kathy."

" Hi Chandler." Kathy says looking at him from her spot on the couch.

" Umm Chandler, can I talk to you for a minute." Phoebe jumps up and pulls him over to the side. " What's wrong? You look depressed."

" Nothing. I'm fine." Phoebe sighs. She can tell that he is lying.

" Chandler I know about you and Monica and I know that you went to her apartment to talk. Now what happened?"

" How do you know about us?"

" Well umm that is besides the point. What happened? Did you break up?"

" Yea. Pretty much." He nods.

" Aww. So I guess your going with Kathy?"

" I guess so."

" Why didn't you tell her about Kathy in the first place?"

" What do you mean?"

" Well you told everyone about your son, but you didn't tell Monica about her asking you to be with her."

" You told!" His eyes widened. " She found out because of you?"

" Well I didn't know she didn't know. You should have said something. Besides, I didn't know about you guys then."

" Whatever. It's over now. What's done is done."

" I'm gonna go see Monica. Oh and Kathy's been waiting to see if you'd show up here, it's a good thing you did."

" Okay. Wait, does anyone else know about us?"

" Uhh no." Phoebe yells back while leaving the coffeehouse, Chandler meets the rest of them at the couch.

" Chandler I need to talk to you."

" God, does everyone need to talk to me today? Okay. Joey, Rachel, do you mind?"

" Oh no. Go ahead." Joey and Rachel both reply.

" Umm guys." He looks at them, trying to give them the hint that they should leave.

" Oh sorry." Rachel catches it and pulls Joey over to the counter to order more coffee.

" Okay Chandler. You've been avoiding me and I need to know your answer because if I have a reason to stay, then I have to request a transfer here from my job. So, do I have a reason to stay?"

" Yes. Yes you do." Kathy smiles and hugs Chandler. She then gives him a sweet kiss but all he is thinking about is Monica. Mean while Rachel and Joey are looking on.

" Oh my god! What is he doing?" Rachel asks.

" Something must have happened with Monica."

" They probably broke up."

" You think?"

" Why else would he be kissing Kathy?"

" I don't know. Maybe he's playing them both."

" Joey, he is not you." Rachel says rolling her eyes.

" yea whatever. Your just jealous."

" Of what?"

" That you never got any of the Joey love."

*****

" Monica? Are you here." Phoebe asks while entering the apartment that Monica shared with Rachel.

" Yea. Phoebe but I really don't wanna talk right now." She yells from her room. Phoebe can tell that her friend has been crying by the way her voice sounds.

" Monica, I know what's going on and I want to talk to you." Monica then comes from her room.

" What do you think is going on."

" Mon, I know about you and Chandler and I know something happened when he came up here to talk to you. Now I wanna talk to you. Did you break up with him?" She nods. " Why?"

She sighs and goes to sit on the couch. " Because I know that he wants to be and belongs with Kathy. They had a child together and want to be with each other and I can't stand in the way. No matter how much it may hurt."

" Aww Mon. Sometimes your just too nice to other people." She gives Monica a hug and lets her cry a little more on her shoulder.

*****

For the next couple of days Monica and Chandler avoided each other. Everyone but Ross, knew why but they didn't say anything. They could tell that it would be along time before everything got back to normal, especially with Kathy and Mike around.

" Hey man." Joey says while coming out of his room. He sees Chandler holding Michael and smiles.

" Hey Joe."

" So I don't have to ask that you're back together with Kathy. What about our talk? I thought Monica was the one for sure."

" Yea well, it didn't turn out that way. I didn't break up with her, she broke up with me."

" What? Why?" He looks down at his watch. " Damn it!"

" What?"

" I'm late. I got to go. We can finish talking later." With that he grabbed his coat and ran across the hall to Monica and Rachel's. Monica was siting down reading a magazine while Rachel was running around with one shoe in her hand.

" Sorry I'm late. You guys ready?"

" I'm ready but Rachel couldn't decided what shoe to wear."

" Okay! I'm ready. Let's go get a cab." Three of them walk out and hail a cab. They decided to go to lunch at a new place a few blocks away from where they would usually would go.

" I know I have to get over Ross but it's just hard. You know?" Rachel says as Monica and Joey continue to nod their head as if they are really paying attention. Suddenly Joey nudges Monica.

" Joey, we'll be there soon. Okay? Just a few more minutes, then you can eat as much as you want."

" No, not that. That." He points to a couple who is sitting on the park bench kissing. Monica then realizes that its Kathy and that it's not Chandler that she's kissing.
