Hey guys! Thank you all for your reviews. Um, not much to say here, as not much time has passed since I last wrote. (yesterday) So, um…enjoy chapter 2!

Disclaimer: See chapter 1 ;)

"Shit Rach! Where the hell are the painkillers?" Monica swore from inside the bathroom.

"In my hand!"

"Argh!" Monica stomped outside into the kitchen and quickly poured herself a tall glass of water. "I told you it wasn't a good idea to go to the bar last night!"

"Well neither of us knew that I would be taking over Katie's order, and that you'd be switched to the lunch time period!" Rachel said, defending herself.

"True," Monica said, popping two of the pills in her mouth, "These better last me the day."

"Here, take these." Rachel said, tossing her a smaller bottle containing 4 more painkillers, "I have a bottle at work."

"Ha," Monica scoffed, "Desk job." She grabbed her purse from mid-air as Rachel chucked it at her. "Kidding! Have fuuun…" She taunted in a sing song voice, and headed out the door.

"I'll tryyyy," Rachel answered, and ran out the door after her.

"OH. MY. GAWD." Monica exclaimed as she stalked into the apartment.

"You will not believe what happened to me at work today!" Both girls yelled at each other. Then, they burst out laughing.

"You go. No you go. No you go! Damnit!"

"Enough of the unison speaking!" Rachel laughed, "I'll go."

"Yeah, you know you've known the other person for too long when…"

"Shut up! Let me speak!" Monica laughed and made her way over to the couch, dropping her coat and purse along the way.

"Okay, this Katie girl. I really don't know why she's even hired! I mean, on the sheet I got, it said 100 of the black, 50 of the gray, and 50 of the navy blue. When I look inside the box, I find 150 gray, 150 navy blue, and get this 10, 10 black pairs of pants! Gosh, even to you that would seem unlikely!" Rachel stopped for a breath and continued, "So, it's up to me to return 100 pairs of pants, and order 90 more. Let's just say, that's all I did today!"

Monica laughed, "Well, my situation isn't much better, but it could be worse!" She let out a breath and started on her day. "Alright. I get to work, and find that there is a new chef."

"Didn't you say that like 2 weeks ago?"

"Yup, I sure did. Another new one. Okay. #1 This guy is barely out of high school. #2 He arrived late. #3 He doubts my way of cooking."

Rachel gasped, "Noooo…"

"Yup, so I spent half the time trying to cook, dice, and explain to the guy why my wok worked better on a spider cooker than his."

"Good Lord! Aren't you glad we have each other?" Rachel asked, kicking off her high heels.

"You bet." Monica let out a huge sigh and got up from the couch, "I'm going to get this bitch of a uniform off of me."

"I'd say the same, but I don't have a uniform." Rachel said, remembering the teasing from this morning.

"Ooooh! You're going to get it Rachel Karen Green!" Monica threatened, and lunged towards her, fingers ready for a tickle war.

"Ahhh! No no no no!! Monica!" Rachel squealed as she was attacked.

"Alright. I wouldn't want to rip your tight clothing." Monica quipped, and got up from the floor.

"I love how we act like we're kids."

"Well, I'm 25, you're 24…You're the kid now." Monica teased, and turned towards her bedroom.

Rachel just shook her head and stared at her friend in her amazement. She always managed to shock her either with her wisdom, her humor and well, her beauty. All the boys were always all over Rachel. Even after Monica lost weight, she didn't seem to garner as much attention as she did. Maybe it's the fact that I'm blond, Rachel thought. Or maybe it's those rumors that always seemed to circle around the school about me. Whatever it was, it had always baffled Rachel. If she were in Monica's position, she would have been so overcome with jealousy that she wouldn't even be able to see straight! But Monica didn't show anything of the sort. In fact, she had always helped Rachel out when she was in a funk, consoled her.

Rachel got up off the floor and shook herself off. Boys, they're liable to say anything.

"Well, here we are Chandler! Our very own apartment!"

"You say it like it's a milestone Joey."

"Well, it kind of is. We lived in those small dorms for years!"

"I'm just glad we have separate rooms now," Chandler joked, "So that at least there's a wall separating me from you and your dates."

"Hey, I can't help it if they're loud!"

"Why can't you go over to their place?!" Chandler questioned.

"Have you ever had a girl ask you over to their place?" Joey inquired, "Oh wait, all girls ever ask you is where the bathrooms are."

"Oh shut up Joe." Chandler walked around the apartment and looked out the window, "Well, we have a nice view of…other people's apartments!"

"I knooow," Joey said, excitedly, "That's why I brought you over here."

"Why? So you can spy on women, fresh out of the shower?" Chandler asked, rolling his eyes.

"Yeah! You gotta love a the look of a towel on a woman."

Chandler just laughed and shook his head. He went over to the already-sorted boxes and took his own to his room. He was about to unpack when Joey called out to him.

"Chandler! Chandler! I think it's those two chicks we saw at the bar like, a month ago!"

"Are you serious?" Chandler dropped his suitcase onto the bed and ran over to Joey, not without tripping though. "Ow, shit Joe. You gotta move your boxes."

"I will, I will! But you gotta come over here and see this! What were their names again? Monana? Raquel?"

"Monica and Rachel."

"Right! Either way, the one you bought for is in…nothing but a towel!"

"Are you serious?" Chandler couldn't help it, but he was excited. He had thought about Monica a few times after they met. It was her smile he couldn't erase from his mind. It was too bright, too perfect to be forgotten. Chandler's eyes turned in the direction Joey's finger was pointing, and indeed there she was.

"You think Rachel's there too?"

"Who's to say Joe…Who's to say."

Well, there's chapter 2. Hey…look at that! I updated in one day! Crazy. Please leave a review…I'll try and get the next part up as soon as possible! Hum, still short…I'll work on that. The next chapter will probably be longer!
