I Close My Eyes... All I See is You.
*Flashback to January 19, 1993
"I hear they sexually harass their patients a lot." Joey is saying seriously, as the rest of the gang sits around at a table in an extremely fancy restaurant. The others look over at him and scoff slightly.
"All I know, is that we're extremely proud of you." Monica says as she squeezes her boyfriend's leg under the table, while holding her glass gingerly so as not to break the fragile crystal.
"We all are. I'd like you all to raise your glasses with me, to toast Doctor Chandler Bing, fresh out of Med. School. I got to say, I never thought we'd get this far. None of us did." Ross smiles lovingly. "To Chandler."
They all raise their glasses as they smile and celebrate their best friends first day of glory and independence.
*Present day, April 15, 2002
Ross is on his couch in his apartment, lying in his boxers, and scratching himself inadvertently as the TV runs in the background. He lets out a loud burp as he finishes his third beer in a quick few gulps. He had had a rough day at work today. Nothing ever seemed to go right with him anymore. Suddenly a bulletin pops up on the screen about an article that he had been studying for the past few months.
"And in ground breaking news, police have found a man, convicted with the crime of sexually assaulting and murdering 17 year old Clarice Thompson, killed last June. Chandler Bing was arrested in his Manhattan home earlier on today, and was taken into custody after his DNA was found at the scene of the crime, More news, at 11:00."
Ross blinked his furiously before settling in onto the couch.
"It's just the beer talking." Ross assured himself calmly, before he realized that his head wasn't even spinning.
"What the fuck!?" Ross exclaimed as he ran to his window to look out at Monica and Chandler's apartment, but found it dark.
He picked up the phone and dialled the phone number of his other two best friends, hoping they knew what was going on.
*Flashback, May 17, 1998
Chandler and Monica are at the altar, under garlands of white roses and lilies. They stand smiling at each other as the priest seemingly drones on quietly in the background. Chandler takes Monica's arm as he begins to recite his vows.
'Monica, I love you more than anything in the world. The day I met you I knew that you were something special to me, but I never expected you to feel the same. I've never been happier than I am now, and I still to this day cannot believe you settled for me, your best friend. I want you to know that I'll always love you, no matter what happens, I will keep nothing from you, and I'll never love another person, because you're my soulmate." Chandler pauses to gather himself as tears start to form in his eyes as Ross, Joey and Rachel and Phoebe along with the rest of their friends and family watch with tears of happiness streaming down their face, that these two have finally found each other. "Nothing can keep us apart." Chandler finishes as he slips a ring onto Monica's finger and her eyes well up in tears.
*Present Day, April 15, 2002
"Rachel? Go check on Monica right now." Ross said loudly into the phone as soon as someone at Rachel and Joey's picked up.
"What is it Ross?" Rachel asked somewhat shocked by the bluntness of his greeting.
"Just check on her, now!" Ross said loudly.
"Why?" Rachel insisted on knowing.
"I was just watching the news and it said that Chandler was arrested for murdering that girl that I've been researching. The one that was his patient before she died." Ross yelled angrily.
"What?" Rachel exclaimed from the other side of the line, before Ross heard the phone land with a crash.
"What's wrong?" Ross heard Joey asking in the background.
Rachel quickly explained to him what happened, and Joey picked up the phone.
"What kind of a joke is this?" Joey asked angrily.
"THIS IS NOT A FUCKING JOKE! GO OVER AND CHECK ON MY FUCKING SISTER!" Ross yelled into the phone.
"Holy shit." Ross heard Joey's choked up answer as Joey and Rachel ran to Monica's and began pounding on the door. The door easily slid open, and Joey inspected the door and saw the door had been pounded in, the lock had been demolished. Rachel ran straight into the apartment and into Monica's bedroom, where the last thing Ross heard from the phone in Rachel and Joey's apartment was a loud shriek.
