Hee, hee, its chapter three! Ha, I rhyme now. Yeah, I don't really have that much to say, so I'll just start the story.

"Courtney?" Joey says, "What are you doing here?"

"Oh you know, just thought I'd say hi. Hi!" replies Courtney.

"Ok, hi. Now go, you absolutely cannot be here!" he urges.

"Fine, fine. I'll go. Sheesh, what's your problem?"

"Court, I just cheated on my wife with you, and I don't want her to see you here, ok? Now go, now."

Courtney turned around to leave just as Phoebe walked out of Monica and Chandler's apartment. She had been over there, crying, telling Mon what had happened. When Pheebs sees Courtney, rage bubbles up inside of her.

"What are you doing here?!" she yells.

"I'm leaving, calm down, Godzilla."

"Oh shut up, tramp. Get out of my sight before I beat on you!"

"You're gonna fight me, then? Come on, let's go!"

With one punch, Phoebe knocks out Courtney.

"I sure finished her off," she says, "Joey, I am not finished with you yet."

Joey looks scared, and keeps glancing from Phoebe to Courtney, lying unconscious on the floor.

"Are you going to kill me?" he asks timidly.

"Not yet."

Chandler quickly exits the apartment and goes home to Monica. Phoebe and Joey go inside, she's finally ready to talk.

"Phoebe." he says, only to be interrupted by Phoebe.

"Joey, shut up. I was about to come over here, and maybe forgive you because I hoped that we could start over again. But then I come, and she's standing there, why? Why was she here?"

"I honestly don't know. I didn't invite her, or want her to come, not in the least bit. She said she came to say hi. Why, I don't know. Pheebs, you've got to believe me," Joey replies.

"Alright, I guess I can believe you. I don't trust you, though."

"Let me tell you something, Phoebe. Right up to this morning, at work, I was thinking that you and I should maybe get a divorce or something. But then, when you got all mad at me, and stormed out, I realized how much I love you, and how much I would miss you if you ever left. I know that you can probably never trust me, or love me, ever again, but please, can we at least try? I'm so sorry that it happened, I want to start over."

"I don't know if I can. This is the second time that you've done this, with the same woman that I've forbidden you to even see. I'll never love you as much as I once did, but deep inside me, I still do. I want to start over, too, Joey, but not yet. I'm not ready, and I can't be around you."

"I know," he says," Do you want me to move out for a few weeks?"

"No. I'm going to go to a hotel."

"No, you should stay here. I'm the one who should go," whispers Joey.

"I can't stay here. The place will just constantly remind me of you, and her, and if I'm going to be constantly thinking of you, I might as well live with you, which I don't want to do, so I'm leaving."

"Ok."

Phoebe grabbed up some clothes, money and other essentials and stuffed them into a suitcase. She quickly said good-bye Joey and left for the hotel. The place where she was staying wasn't overly fancy, but it was still pretty nice. She climbed into the large queen-size bed and felt alone without his body next to hers. Phoebe sighed, and eventually drifted off to sleep, thinking nothing of Joey the whole night.

Joey had to do something big to get Phoebe back, but he didn't know what. Sure, he could tell her over and over again that he loves her, and he's sorry, and shower her with compliments, but it wasn't enough. It had to be something big, something huge, that told her that she was the only girl for him. Finally, feeling his brain was to flustered to think, he went to bed.

"I have to get Phoebe back," he thinks, "But how?"

Monica could not believe what Joey had done to Phoebe. She had noticed that things weren't fantastic between the two, but she never expected this to happen.

"Chandler?" she says, "You would never cheat on me, right?"

"No. Of course not. I love you. And no one would do it with me, anyways!" he says, doing that Chandler laugh.

"Not funny. This is serious."

"Ok, Ok. Monica, I would never cheat on you. You know that, and you have to trust me."

"I do. Just wanted to make sure. Kind of wanted to freak you out a bit, too."

The next day, Joey still had no idea of how he would win back Phoebe. He had had a few ideas, but none of them seemed big enough. After lots of thinking, he had it settled that lots of small things would also work. He had come up with this: Totally cut Courtney out of my life. Maybe quit my job.oh, but I like it. We could get our vows renewed. Oh, I don't know!!! Joey put down his list and went across the hall to Monica's. Maybe she would know what to do, or even Rachel.
