(last part: )
womans voice: Last call for flight 138 to London!
Monica: (sadly) Chandler...I think you should go now...
(Chandler stays still)
Chandler: No Mon...I think I'm fine here...
Monica: What do you mean?
Chandler: (quietly) I'm home.
Monica: Chandler...what are you talking about? You've got to be in London!
Chandler: No, no...you see, I never expected this...I was just gonna march away from here-but with Michi and with something telling me that I was going to regret it, I decided to come back and talk to you, to see if that 'spark' we had with our friendship before was still there...and I realised it is. We weren't meant to split Mon...I can see it now!
Monica: Chandler...how about your job?
Chandler: I thought I'd never hear myself say this...but WHO CARES?
Monica: (a small smile creeps up on her face) Are you for real Bing?
Chandler: Yeah...(pause) I've missed you all so much Mon...especially you!
(they hug, Monica all teary eyed)
~~
(we go back to Central Perk and see Ross and Rachel still sitting there)
Ross: Sooo...
Rachel: I gotta go now...(she stands up)
Ross: Wait...Rach...(they walk out of the door) can we meet up some time?
(Rachel turns to him surprised)
Rachel: really??
Ross: What do you mean REALY? Of course!
Rachel: I thought you were mad when I left...
Ross: That's the past Rach...your here now...and I'm glad to see you...
(Rachel smiles)
Rachel: Okay.
Ross: Okay?
Rachel: Yeah. Okay.
~~
(we see Chandler and Monica sharing a cab to a hotel. They get there and get out of the car, and walk into the hotel, somebody taking their luggage for them. They walk up to the front desk and Chandler steps out of the way[with Michi in his arms, sleeping] so Monica can get her room first.)
concierge: Hello. Welcome to the ***.
Monica: Hello...um...I'd like to get a room...
Concierge: Are you together?
Monica: (blankly) Together?
Concierge: Yes...you and you...(points at Chandler)
Monica: (blushes) Noo...we want separate rooms...
(concierge starts typing away on her computer and after a while looks up)
concierge: (sounding hopeful) Do you KNOW each other?
(Chandler and Monica nod)
Monica: Why exactly?
Concierge: It's high season...and well, we only have one more room left...
[an: yea, yea...I know, very coincidental...dont kill me...it had to happen if you want ANY c&m in this!! Heehee!!]
Monica: I-I-
(turns to Chandler)
Chandler: It doesn't matter for me...
Monica: Okay then...I guess we'll take that room...
(the concierge smiles and gives them the key blah blah blah)
(we fade out but then fade in again. A door opens and a light flicks on. We then see we're in a hotel room. Chandler comes in carrying a sleeping Michi. Then Monica comes in followed by the bell boy. He puts down all the luggage, Monica hands him a tip and he walks out the door, closing it. Chandler walks over to Monica who is locking the door)
Chandler: (whispers, since Michi is sleeping) It turns out they gave us a queen size bed...
Monica: What?!
Chandler: Yeah...but hey, there's a couch...and-
Monica: I can sleep on that...
Chandler: No, no...I can...you use the bed...and let Michi sleep on it too...
Monica: No, no...
Chandler: (firmly) I'll sleep on the couch.
Monica: Fine then!! (laughs)
(he laughs along, they stop after a while and stare at each other.)
Chandler: Uumm...
Monica: Yeah-I'm gonna go get ready for bed!
(she hurries opens up her bag and gets some stuff out then hurries to the bathroom. Chandler stares after her, a small smile on his face...he couldn't believe this was happening. They hadn't seen each other for so long, but suddenly, here they were, sharing a room together.)
~~
(we go to this apartment, and we see R&R sitting on a couch, laughing their heads off)
(after a while the laughing dies down and Ross drinks out of his drink)
Ross: Soo...Rach...tell me what's been going on in YOUR life...
Rachel: (stares into his eyes) Well...it's been pretty boring...I dont think you want to hear about it...
Ross: Oh come on...what can be boring? What-do you go shopping everyday? Does Bryan still spoil you a lot?? (laughs at the memory and Rachel gets a sad look. 'yeah...right...') (Ross notices her look and stops laughing right away) Rach? What's wrong?
Rachel: Huh? What?
Ross: What's wrong? What's going on?
Rachel: Nothing...just thinking about Bryan...I-uh...(thinks of something quickly) miss him!
(Ross gets a kinda hurt look but tries to hide it)
Ross: Okay...
(they look at each other for a while in silence)
Ross: (quietly) Rach...that's not the real reason why you look sad...isn't it?
Rachel: (stares at him for a while, seeing his eyes trying to read her own. She gets up quickly) I got to go...I'll see you Ross...
Ross: Rach...wait...
Rachel: I really have to go...I got this meeting thing...
Ross: A meeting? I thought you came here to take a break??
(Rachel stares at Ross. She had made a big mistake. Uh-oh. He looks mad)
Ross: rach...what's going on?! Why do you suddenly want to leave?!(he looks hurt/angry)
Rachel: (breaking down) Ross...you wouldn't understand...okay? Just please...it's nothing...(pause) I never thought I'd ever EVER see you again...I never expected this...but then, I meet up with you...and everything just FITS...you know what I mean? But I dont want this...I RAN from THIS. (she's crying hysterically)
Ross: (quietly) What?
Rachel: yes Ross! I thought I was doing the right thing...but it WASN'T! What I did ruined my life!! (she lifts up her shirt a bit and turns around, and you can see this huge bruise on her lower back. Ross stares at it, horrified) I dont want to end up hurt Ross...
Ross: What?? Rach...you are my FRIEND...I would never hurt you...
Rachel: My friend...ha...I thought Bryan was too. I thought I could tell him anything...I thought I LOVED him! But look what he did to me!! I cant know who to trust Ross...ever...
(Ross takes a step towards her and she backs away)
Ross: Rachel...Bryan-he's-he's CRAZY for doing something like that to you...you are the most...most....(pause) Rachel, I love you okay? And I would never do ANYTHING like that to you...you are my friend...my best friend...even after all these years...you understand me? I would never do ANYTHING to hurt you...
Rachel: (still crying hard) How can I be so sure? I trusted bryan...
Ross: (quietly) I'm not Bryan.
(he walks up to her and embraces her tightly. Rachel doesn't do anything to stop it. She hugs him back, sobbing onto his shoulder, and we fade out)
~~
(Chandler walks out of the bathroom and spots Monica lying on the couch reading)
Monica: (looks up and grins at Chandler standing there with boxers and a shirt) I got the couch!
Chandler: Monica! (he plops down by her legs) Get off! You get the bed...
Monica: No Chandler...come on...
Chandler: Get off...or else...(he grins evily)
Monica: or else WHAT Bing?
Chandler: I'll BRING you over there!! (he picks her up and Monica begins to laugh hard. Chandler brings her to one side of the bed and puts her down, but she's still clinging onto him so he falls down with her. He looks over to make sure Michi is still sleeping and then looks beside him and sees Monica there, looking at him and smiling. He begins to stand up but she holds him down. He looks at her and she's smiling. He smiles back and lies back down again. They're sharing a pillow, so they're heads are pretty close together. They lie there, staring up at the ceiling.)
Monica: Did you ever think we would see each other again?
Chandler: Truthfully...no. But you know what...I'm happy we did.
Monica: really?
Chandler: yeah.
Monica: Now we just need the other four and we'll be together again...(she smiles)
Chandler: Yeah. (pause) Do you ever wonder where the heck they could be?
Monica: Yeah...all the time...
(long silence)
Chandler: Mon...? (he's still looking up at the ceiling, and he's waiting for an answer. After a while he looks at her and sees she's asleep. He smiles at Monica, who has her arm on his chest, she's really close to him. He decides to just stay there. She looks at Michi one more time, and then at Monica and turns off the light. Everything goes dark and we, well, fade out.)
