"Do you want another drink?"

"Please." Phoebe was now very calmed down and was explaining to Joey what Mike had said to her earlier.

"Here you go."

Phoebe nodded and took a sip of the wine. She then continued her story."And then I told him how it would be really hard getting over him." She paused. "And that was the last time...that..Joeyy, I'll never see Mike again. How am I supposed to get over him?" Phoebe began to cry again and let her head fall into her hands.

Joey got up, off of the stool he had been sitting on, and kneeled down right infront of Phoebe. He gently took her hands away from her face, and took his own hand, to tilt up her chin so that he could look straight into her eyes.

"Phoebe, listen to me. You are such a beautiful woman. You have the best personality of any one I've ever met, and any man would be lucky to marry you. And I know that you will find that man of your dreams. Right now it may be hard to see that because your heart has just been broken, but believe me, you can get over this. I know you can. And I will help you get over this any way I can. Is there something I can do that you think will help you?" Joey finished and looked into Phoebe's eyes, hoping that he could do something to
take away her pain.

Phoebe nodded. "Maybe.." She leaned forward and gently placed her lips on Joey's. Then she began to kiss him more passionately.

Joey backed away. "Pheebs...you just..I mean you just kissed me."

"Shhh." Phoebe leaned forward once more, but Joey stopped her my grabbing her shoulders.

"Phoebe...What are you doing?" He waited for a response but Phoebe just continued to look at him. "Wait...Pheebs..no..If this is supposed to be a way to get over Mike...then, no I won't do it." Joey would never take advantage of Phoebe, especially when she was this vulnerable.

"Joey..please. I need this. This is the only way I know how to get over Mike. Do this...for me?"

"No Phoebe! I'm not going to have sex with my best friend, as if though it's just one of my one night stands. Do you know whats at stake here, Phoebe? This could ruin our friendship. I don't want anything awkward between us. Please, Pheebs. There are other ways." Joey stated, sure that he wouldn't change his mind.

Phoebe knew she had to keep on going. He had to break somehow. "But Joey. I need this in order to get over Mike. I know its hard for you but what if I promised you that it wouldn't ruin our friendship. Pretend that it's another one of your one night stands. No feelings. Meaningless."

Joey knew he had to protest. "But it's you. I can.."

Phoebe stopped Joey from speaking another word by kissing him passionately. As soon as her lips touched his, he wanted to stop, but there was something different about her kiss, that made him want to keep going. And that's what he did. Phoebe began to tug at his clothes, and as soon as she stripped him, she stopped. She began to take off her own clothes, but her and joey kept their eyes locked. Joey saw in her eyes she was saying, 'Make me wish I never knew Mike.' But Phoebe was too focused on her own mission, she couldn't see that Joey's eyes were saying, 'Why do I feel so different?'

"Joey."

And at that Joey took Phoebe's hand and led her to his bedroom.

What started as meaningless sex, turned into something much different, at least for Joey. He felt something with Phoebe that he never felt with any other woman, that he had slept with. While he was fucking his best friend, this new feeling rushed over him. He thought maybe he was falling in love with Phoebe. If that was so then why was he doing this. He realized then, he made the wrong choice. He never should have said yes to her. It would never be the same after this. He had to do something.

"No!" Joey let out, not thinking.

Phoebe didn't open her eyes, but out of breath managed to say, "joeyy...joeyy...what?"

"You won't believe me but, I think I love you," Joey answered as he began sliding into Phoebe.

"ha..haha...You're drunk," Phoebe managed to say, breathing heavily.

"Yea...Drunk on you."

At that, Phoebe's eyes shot open, and Joey stopped. Phoebe remembered back to when she said that to him, and pretended she was Ursula. What was she doing. She realized then that she was having sex with her best friend. Joey was used to this stuff though, but then why was he talking all crazy. She looked up into Joey's eyes and just wanted to stop. But then she also wanted to keep going, because every second she was caring less and less about Mike.

Phoebe reached her hand out and pushed Joey's face close to hers so that she could feel him breathing. " Just make the pain go away." Phoebe whispered into Joey's ear.

"Okay. But I don't get why I feel like I'm making love to you instead of just fucking you."
And at that he continued, and not another word was spoken. Phoebe decided to ignore his comment. 'He's definitely just drunk.' Phoebe thought.

Phoebe's eyes fluttered open as the sun started creeping through the shades. When she woke up she found herself in Joey's arms, but strangly there was nothing awkward about it. Infact she was quite comfortable. Joey was already awake and smiled down at Phoebe. He never realized she was so gorgeous.

"Hey Beautiful." Joey was in a great mood.

"Hey Joe." Phoebe paused, unsure about what to say to him. "Yeaa..ummm sorry about last night..I think we were both a little crazy." Phoebe was hoping that she didn't ruin anything.

"Ohhh..don't worry Pheebs. Everything's fine. I just hoped I helped." Joey paused for a second. "Was the Joey loving good enough for you???" He laughed.

Phoebe let out a sigh of relief. Same old Joey. Nothing to worry about. "Haha.. yea actually, I feel a lot better. Mike sort of just passed into the category of regular ex's. Same old breakup, ya kno?"

"Yeaa..I'm glad I could help. My sex is a miracle." Joey laughed.

Phoebe laughed. "Yeaaa...I'm so glad I finally got a miracle. Well, I'm gunna go to my place to clean up and then shopping. So thank you Joey. I love you. You're the best." Phoebe was the same bright girl she was before Mike. So, Phoebe left Joey's apartment, happy that her and Joey were the same old friends, and that she got over Mike a lot easier than she thought.

Once Phoebe left the apartment, Joey headed for the bathroom and said, "I usually don't feel like this after meaningless sex." He didn't know what happened last night, but he wanted to still be laying in bed with Phoebe, just holding her tight.
