A/N: Ya finally here it is the 7th chapter. I've been getting some pissy ass reviews on people waiting for these chapters and really I dont' appreciate it (complete sarcasm). I've done said i'm posting these chapters on my own time and I've been too busy to post. But if I get any more pissy reviews on people waiting for the chapters to be posted there will be no more chapters. I mean it. I'm only really writing this for Alicia anyway. I'll take it off the site without a moments hesitation so dont' start.
You know the drill. Flame till your hearts content if you must, flames only fuel me. In short, I enjoy them.
Disclaimer: You know they're not mine so this makes no point. I dont' know why I couldn't be friends with the actors though... :: =) Alicia ::
Oh and for a certain someone:
I have heard of punctuation, just not really a big fan of it.
And if you dont' like this story. Then why'd you read to the 6th chapter?...
Get a fucking grip, if you're gonna flame a story cause you dont' like it
then don't fucking read all that is posted. Wouldn't that be a waste of your time?

~ Chapter 7 ~
"Hey Ross" he imitates "What are you doing here?"
"I came to see you" she lied
"Really? Let me guess you got lost on the way to my dressing room and ended up in Chandler's mouth"
"Slight detour"
"I want to talk to you before the show tonight. Chandler we need to be at the stage like now"
"I have to change my shirt"
"Aiight"
Ross shuts the door, Chandler begins to take off his shirt. Monica gets up and walks over to him.
"Do you have to go?" she asks sweetly
"I'm afraid so"
She goes to kiss him but Ross bust into the room again
"Monica come on!"
"Fine! I'm coming" she gives Chandler a quick kiss anyway and turns to see Ross glaring "What?"
"Come on Chandler"
Chandler follows him out the door. Ross and Chandler walk side by side down the corridors, Monica follows closely behind
"Ok so what's the press conference about?" Chandler asks attaching a necklace around his neck that reads 'Shifty'
"Has Johnny seen that?" Ross asked looking to the necklace
"No why?"
"No reason... I'm not sure about the conference, just about the show or something I don't know"
"How long is it gonna last?" Monica asks
"Thirty minutes to an hour" Ross answers
"Damn"
"Why you have something better to do?"
"Not something,… someone"
Chandler turns around and smiles
"That's not funny at all" Ross glares "Does mom know you're here"
"…no"
"We're gonna call her when the conference is over"
"No we're not, I'm staying for the show"
"Yes we are"
"Don't argue with me we're not calling her, I'm not going home"
Ross sighs and stops at the entrance of the stage "Where's David and Johnny?" he asks Johnny's assistant
"They're already on stage they're waiting for you to start"
"Mon you'll come out with us cause I don't want to lose track of you but stay to the side out of view"
"Whatever"
They walk onto the stage, Ross points for Monica to stay to the side out of view but where she can watch if she wants too.
Flashes erupt when they walk into view.
"We can begin questions now, this conference is only set to last for an hour so try to get as many questions in as possible." Johnny explained he sat to the side of the table while Chandler sat in the middle with Ross to his left and David to his right.
"First question" Chandler said
Ten to fifteen hands went up in to the air
"Yes" Chandler pointed to a woman in the back
"I'm from the New York Times and we printed the story on what you did last night"
"Yes I saw it, your question"
"Who is this mystery girl you were seen with last night, and are you an item"
"That question really isn't relevant to the event happening tonight, so I would have to say no comment"
"Please answer the question Mr. Bing"
Chandler turned to Johnny who nodded his head
Chandler took a moment to figure how the word his answer "Contrary to the rumors that have already generated from your article in this mornings paper, we are not an item. We're very very close friends and her name is Monica" Chandler turned to where Monica was standing and winked
David noticed the wink and looked to the crowd to see one of the reporters eye the curtain which Monica hide behind
"Last name?" someone blurted out
"That is irrelevant, if she want's you to know then you'll have to ask her and see what she says"
"Ross, isn't your sisters name Monica?" the reporter from NYT asked
Before Ross could answer Johnny cut in "The band will not be answering any more questions that don't pertain to the event happening tonight and tomorrow"
They continued to answer questions about the event. Twenty-odd minutes into the questioning Monica felt a tap on her shoulder. She spun around to see a reporter in her face.
"Are you Monica" the reporter asked
"Um… uh…" Monica didn't know what to say
"Well" the reporter pushed
"No… no comment"
"What is your relationship with Chandler Bing"
"No comment. I don't think you're supposed to be back here"
"I'm not but that doesn't matter"
"You look a lot like the girl in New York Times"
"You have the wrong girl"
"I don't think I do"
"Well I know you do. I think you need to leave." She walked to the backstage door and the reporter walked in front of her
"What is your relationship with Chandler" he asked again "Are you an item? Are you a groupie? What time did you get home with him last night?"
"No comment!" Monica yelled
The band, Johnny, and all the reporters turned to the curtain
"Shit" Chandler sat back in his chair
Johnny's assistant heard the disturbance out side the door and opened it "What's going on"
"I don't think he should be up here harassing me" Monica stated
"You are?" the assistant asked the reporter
"I'm a reporter for YM magazine"
"I think you need to get back with the conference then before I have security escort you off the premises"
"I'm going"
"Come on Ms. Geller" the assistant said to Monica placing his hand on her back leading her inside
The reporter smiled slyly as the door shut. He returned to the crowd unnoticed. Then raised his hand
"You" Chandler said
"How is your relationship with Ms. Geller"
"Who?" he asked playing dumb. How the hell did this guy know?
"Ms. Monica Geller, you know the girl you were out with last night"
Hands flew into the air
"That's it for this conference" Johnny interfered "Hopefully you got the information you came for, if not call my assistance and we'll try to set up an appointment"
Questions started flying, as the band was rushed off the stage.
Chandler noticed Monica was gone and went strait to Johnny's assistant "Where's Mon?"
"She's in your dressing room"
"Thanks"
Chandler headed to the dressing room but was stopped by Johnny.
"She needs to leave"
"Who?"
"Monica"
"She's not leaving, she's Ross's sister"
"I think she should go"
"I'll see what I can do" Chandler said pushing his way passed Johnny
He walked into his dressing room to find Monica laying on the couch starring at the ceiling
"Tired?" he asked shutting the door
"A little"
"What happened back there?" he asked sitting at her feet
"Some dumb ass reporter was asking me all kinds of questions nothing important"
"Did you tell him anything cause he and anyone who buys any of the magazine's that were here today will know your Ross's sister"
"No I didn't say anything but that guy called me Ms. Geller in front of him. I didn't answer any of his questions though"
"That's cool sorry you got caught in that reporters can be hell"
"I noticed"
"You know what will take your mind off of that and your mom and Ross"
"What?"
"I dont' know a little this a little that... or a little kissing" he grinned
"Tough choice"
"I know"
Monica sat up on the couch "Does your door lock?"
"Uh... ya"
"Then why don't you lock it"
Chandler smiled and hopped up from the couch. He locked the door and returned to the couch
"So what cha think?"
"This and That is appealing, but kissing wouldn't be bad either"
"Good choice"
"Ya I thought so too"
Their lips connect in a passionate kiss. They resumed their positions on the couch, him on top of her, her with her hands in his shirt. Monica moaned into his mouth. Chandler moved from her lips to her neck making her moan louder. She pushed him up pulling his shirt off then rejoining their lips.
"Are you sure the doors locked?" she asked pulling away momentarily
"Uh huh" he whispers out of breath
"You sure? Cause you haven't been very good at that. I don't think Ross could handle walking in on us again"
"100% sure"
He goes to kiss her but she pulls away
"Can you go check"
Chandler sighs "Ya" he gets up from the couch and jiggles the door knob making sure it's locked.
Monica looks at his bear chest and realizes what she's getting into.
"You should start working out" She smiles trying to lighten her mood, make her less nervous
Chandler looks down at his six pack then back up to her "Ya know I started working out earlier then I decided the fat could stay so I quit"
"You shouldn't have quit"
Chandler grins and returns next to her
"So..."
Chandler could tell she was getting uncomfortable, but couldn't figure out why
"What's wrong?" he asks giving her a soft kiss on the lips
"Nothing"
"You sure?" he kisses her neck and she begins to become comfortable again
"Ya don't worry about it" she returned her lips to his
A few minutes later he is only in his boxer's yet she remains fully clothed except for shoes.
Chandler lifts up from her and looks from himself to her then back again.
"Ok this isn't far… I'm almost naked"
"And?"
"Your not" he whined
"You're so cute"
"You'd be a lot cuter without that shirt on"
"What's wrong with my shirt?" she teased
"Nothing it would just look a lot better on the floor"
"Do you make those lines up on the spot or do they just come naturally?" she grinned
"Pretty much comes naturally. Part of the package"
"Well in that case" she smiles taking off her shirt. His eyes light up making her smile wider.
This wasn't like her at all. The farthest she had ever gone with a guy was making out and that was even after knowing them for a while. Now she's sitting here with a guy in his boxers and her shirtless and she had only known him for a few days tops. But it felt right, she couldn't explain what she was feeling. It was different with him.
They fell back on the couch. Chandler kissed her neck and made his way down her chest.
There was a sharp knock on the door. They looked at each other then simultaneously their eyes went for the door.
"What!" Chandler yelled letting whoever was at the door know he was busy
"Where's Monica"
"I, uh, I dont' know"
"Chandler were is she" Ross pressed
"I dont' know! but let me know if you find her, I need her help with something" he turned and smiled at her slyly
"Dude I need to talk to her"
"Me too" he answered aggravated "So when you find her let me know!"
Ross sighed "Alright"
Chandler waited till he could no longer hear Ross's footsteps to turn back to Monica
"Where were we?"
"Somewhere around here" Monica kisses him passionately
***
Ross is stopped by Johnny's assistant "What are you looking for?"
"My sister"
"Last time I saw her she was going to Chandler's dressing room"
"Damnit thanks Ryan" Ross turns to leave
"Wait Ross"
"Ya?"
"This is Jason Morgan he'll be your quote unquote 'body guard' for now on"
A tall man with dirty blonde hair spiked in the front and blue eyes appears from behind
"Nice to meet you" he extends his hand
Ross shakes his hand
"When you're in your dressing room, he'll be outside the door. When you're out of the stadium he'll be with and at hotels rooms he'll be in the one right next to you. So since your going to be around each other A LOT you should try to become friends" Ryan explained
"I'll go get Chandler" Ross said ignoring Ryan's last comment
"No need Johnny is on his way with Sonny, Chandler's body guard"
***
Chandler is undoing Monica's belt when there is another knock on the door
"What Ross!"
"Why's your door locked!"
"Shit it's Johnny" he looks to Monica "Um... I'm getting dressed" Monica looks at him shaking her head "I mean I'm uh, I'm..."
"Writing" Monica mouthed
"I'm writing"
"Then open the door, I need you to meet Sonny"
"Who?" Chandler asks putting his pants on as fast as possible. He bends down and gets Monica's shirt off of the floor tossing it to her "Sorry" he whispers slipping on his shirt. He waits till she has her shirt on and has it fixed and reconnects her belt then he opens the door. "Hey"
"Writing the next #1 hit?" Johnny asked scanning the room spotting Monica "Why's she in here?"
"She's helping me out"
Johnny looks from her to Chandler then back and forth again, Chandler can tell by the way he's looking that he doesn't believe Chandler.
"This is Sonny Corenthos" Johnny said introducing the tall man with dark slicked back hair in a black suit standing next to him "He'll be your body guard from now on. He'll be with you where ever you go"
"Great" Chandler said sarcastically
Sonny extended his hand "Hey"
"Sure" Chandler ignores his hand, after a moment Sonny returns his hand to his side. Johnny glares at Chandler
"You brought this on your self" he reminded him "Your watching begins now. I have to go see David with Jax so I'll see you for the show. By the way, I'm still waiting for the drugs"
'Better not hold you breath' Chandler thought to himself
Chandler flips Johnny off as he walks away
Sonny steps into the room and shuts the door, as Chandler returns to the couch next to Monica.
"I don't believe we've meet" Sonny said starring at Monica "I'm Sonny Corenthos"
"Monica Geller" Monica stood up and shook his hand. He takes her hand and turns it over kissing the back
"It's extremely nice to meet you" he smiles, Monica practically melts into his smile. He was gorgeous
"Same I'm sure" she smiles back starring deeply into his dark eyes
Chandler looks to Sonny seething "We're kinda busy in here so can you stand outside the door or something?"
Sonny breaks away from Monica's gaze to address Chandler "No, I was told to stay with you and that's what i'm gonna do"
"Fucker..." Chandler curses to himself "Do you have to literally watch me? Can't you turn around or go sit over there and watch t.v damn"
"No harm to that... It was nice meeting you. Hopefully we can talk later?" He asked Monica
"Definitely"
He walked across the room and sat in the chair in front of the t.v, flipping channels.
"Wow" Monica exhaled
"Show off"
"What?" Monica asked her mind was obviously some where else and Chandler would have bet his life that it was Sonny that still had her attention
"Nothing" Chandler sighed "So what do you want to do now?"
"I didn't know you were getting a body guard"
"Not body guard" Chandler corrected "Prick"
"You dont even know him"
"Don't intend to either, first chance I get I'm ditching him. What time is it?"
"5:16"
"I have to get ready for the show, and you should probably go talk to Ross so I'll see you later"
"Ok"
"Bye" Sonny called out as Monica opened the door
"Bye"
Monica walked across the hall to Ross's dressing room, Jason was standing outside his door.
"Whoa, name?"
"I'm Ross's sister"
"Ok Ms. Geller go on ahead"
Monica rolled her eyes and entered the room "Ross?"
"Mon?" Ross turned around from his clothing rack, he was picking out clothes for the nights show "Where the hell have you been?"
"I've been around"
"Bull shit"
"So I was across the hall, what do you want me for?"
"I talked to Mom"
"Great Bye" Monica turned to leave
"You snuck out of the house?"
She turned away from the door to face Ross "It's not technically sneaking out when you go out of the front door"
"Same thing"
"No it isn't" Monica countered
"Yes it is"
"No it's not"
"Yes it is!"
"No it's not!"
"Yes it is!
"No its..." Ross cuts her off
"Look, you left the house when you where told not to, right?"
"Ya"
"Ok well Mom and Dad are really pissed"
"I could fucking care less" she said leaning her back against the door
"What's wrong with you?"
"Excuse me?"
"You've changed so much since I left"
"Ya well a lot of stuff changed in six months" Monica shot, her tone shocked Ross for a moment
"But you're like a completely different person"
"And?"
He didn't respond
"Look I need a cigarette so can we make this quick?"
"…and that's why I want you to come on tour with us"
"What?" Monica asked in shock
"I want you to come on the tour, we have like 8 dates left then we'll be done and probably back in the studio but I want you to come along,... on the tour anyway"
"Mom's never gonna let me go"
"I've already asked her. I told her I would take care of you, make sure you don't get into any trouble, because from what I've been told you've been raising hell." Monica smirk at the comment "So she said you can go, as long as I promise to keep an eye on you"
"And since you're their favorite and in their eyes you can do no wrong she said yes"
"She said yes" Ross concluded ignoring the comments leading up to it
Monica walked up to him and placed her hands on her hips "Why?" she asked eyeing him
"Why what?"
"Why do you want me to come? Why'd you go through all of that trouble?"
"Because your my..." he's cut off
"Don't say 'because your my sister' that's not a fucking reason I want the real reason Ross"
"The real reason... the real reason is because I dont' like the path your headed down" Monica shook her head in disbelief "and I dont' want to see you get hurt"
"So your doing this cause you feel sorry for me?" she asked annoyance in her voice
"That's not what I said..."
"You might as well have. I'm fine Ross, you don't have to 'feel sorry for me' or 'worry about me' I can take care of myself"
"I'd believe you but mom told me about how you haven't been coming home until 3/4 in the morning. How your grades dropped dramatically in the last year"
"I had better things to do than study and worry about what time I was gonna be home"
"Better things? Like what?"
"None of your fucking business"
Ross sighed "Are you gonna come or not?"
"I dont know, it's a really hard decision. I can either go on tour with you and be apart of this new 'Monica outreach' shit OR I can go to Aunt Lidy's, sneak out, and say and do whatever I want to whoever I want whenever I want however I want... There's no right answer"
"If you come on tour you'll be with Chandler" Ross said trying to convince her to come on tour, he really didn't want her to see him but if that's what it took to get her with him where he could watch her then so be it
He could tell in her eyes that she would stay because of Chandler, they sort of light up when he mentioned him, but she tried to play it off "I'll think about it" she answered walking to the door "Do you have any stoggys?"
"I dont' smoke Mon,... and neither should you"
"Then why did you want the weed last night? To smell it?"
"All apart of my public persona" he answered matter-of-factly "I'd never really do it"
"Then why did Tyron know your name?"
"Well, uh..."
She smiled knowing she caught him in a lie he couldn't get out of. "I'm gonna go, give ya time to come up with a good excuse" she walks out not giving Ross a chance to respond
A/N: there it is the 7th chapter. So the 8th will be out when I feel like posting it. I wouldn't hold your breath I'm in no real hurry. Review if you liked it… and flame if you didn't.
Times up, over, PLOW
