Hey! It's midnight of the 28th...so technically, I finished this
yesterday...but I decided to just wait for the next day to post it! But
that doesn't really MATTER. Hey guys...thanks for the reviews...and here's
the next part for y'all!! BTW, when I made Ross tease Monica, I mentioned
that one of her friends was Phoebe? Well...change that. Forgot it was
written there....I got a better idea...hehehehe.
~Where the Heart Is~
It was the next day, and Rachel got up from bed not really wanting to go to school. She trudged to the bathroom and after got dressed. The walked slowly down the stairs and ate some breakfast. When she got to the school, the hall way was already filling up, all though there was still one hour to go till class started. As she neared her locker, Rachel noticed somebody standing by it. No, not by her locker, by the locker beside hers, going through it. Rachel then realised that it must have been a new girl. When Rachel was about 2 meters away, the girl shut the locker, revealing her. Rachel was shocked. She girl had beautiful blond hair, but had ruined it by highlighting it blue and purple, and perming it really curly. She was wearing a black mini-skirt and a black spaghetti strapped tshirt that said PUNK on it. Rachel didn't know whether to laugh or to be scared.
Rachel: Uh-hi.
(the girl glanced at her and Rachel felt like she was shrinking. The girls stare was scaring her, and Rachel couldn't help noticing that the girl was 'checking her out'. Rachel began to feel conscious. She was wearing flare pants and a pretty nice top, but to the girl, she seemed pathetic.)
Rachel: I'm Rachel...you new?
(the girl shut her locker)
Girl: Sorta. Just moves schools...I'm from around.
Rachel: Oh.
Girl: Nice top.
Rachel: (taking it as a compliment...relieved) Oh! Thanks...it's nothing.
Girl: At least you can afford it.
(Rachel was speachless)
Rachel: I-I-uh-SO! Do you know some people from around here? Ya know, since you were just at another school near by?
Girl: Oh, I know some people all right. (stares in another direction)
(Rachel follows her gaze and realises that she's staring at Monica and some of her friends talking a few meters away)
Rachel: Ah. Monica Geller, huh?
Girl: Yep. Pain in the ass, that one is.
Rachel: What happened?
Girl: Nothing really, just the way she acts towards people; the way she acts towards me. It's just, if you're different, and she doesn't like the way you are, she just, does such mean things.
(Rachel didn't say anything. Monica had treated her disrespectfully, but then she had also treated her like a friend)
Girl: The name's Phoebe by the way. Phoebe Buffay.
~fades out~
(it was lunch time, and Rachel was in the hall way bathroom, which was deserted. Only one of the stalls was occupied, but Rachel didn't really care about that. Suddenly the bathroom door opened and Monica walked in.)
(Rachel smiles at her)
Monica: Rachel. Hey!
Rachel: Hi Monica. What's up?
Monica: Nothing really.
Rachel: Where are your friends?
Monica: Lunchroom.
Rachel: Oh. What are you doing here?
Monica: dunno. (pause) Hey, did ya see that new girl? Well, not really NEW, I know her from around, but you dont! (Rachel nods) Isn't she something? Man, is she one piece of work! Her family's poor ya know. Her dad run off when she was little and her mom hasn't been right since! It's just her and her brother, and well, her mother; who doesn't really help. Personally, I dont have any clue why she was allowed back in this school-I mean, she's on drugs and all.
(Rachel just listened, feeling sorry for Phoebe but happy that Monica was actually speaking to her)
Monica: Anyway...enough abouther-I mean, who'd waste their breath on HER?
(suddenly the occupied bathroom stall opens and a girl runs out of it. Rachel, after seeing some blue hair streak by, noticed that it was Phoebe. Right before she left the room, she noticed tears in her eyes. Rachel looked down)
Rachel: She was in here the whole time!
Monica: (scoffs) So?! Who cares?
Rachel: (feeling a little angry, but hides it) Okay...what ever...
Monica: Anyway, guess what?
Rachel: (not really paying attention) What?
Monica: I think my brother likes you!!
(that woke Rachel up)
Rachel: What? No way! His best friend, handler, hates me!
Monica: Rachel! I said ROSS!
Rachel: I know, but wouldn't Chandler-
Monica: Phhff, no! And Chandler doesn't hate you!
Rachel: how would YOU know?
Monica: Oh I dont, but he better! That's what I really wanted to tell you! Chandelr asked me to the prom!
Rachel: OH My God! Really? (pause) Wait, is that a good thing?
Monica: Ya-huh!
Rachel: Aaw, I'm happy for you!
Monica: I'd be more happy is you went with my brother!
Rachel: Oh no, come on, I'm not his type.
Monica: (shrugs) Of course you are! Come on! (pause) Anyway, I got to go, my friends must be waiting. Bye Rachel! OH by the way, can you come over today? Gotta work on the project!! (Rachel nods) Bye! (walks out of the bathroom)
Rachel couldn't believe it. Ross liked her-or so MOnica said. But Ross, he was popular! (she looks at heself in the mirror) And she wasn't exactly what you could call popular, she hardly had friends. And if she thought that Phoebe would be a friend, well, now she was WRONG.
