Hey you guys! :) I'm so sorry about the delay, but at least I have a really good explanation: My computer was attacked by some awful virus!!! Well I'm no scientist when it comes to computers so I had to take it to this shop so they could fix it. And also I had to re-write the fifth chapter which I wrote before the virus broke down my computer. Well now the wait is over finally! Hope it was forth it!

And to you from Sweden! Hi neighbor! Hur mår du ;)? Nice to see that there are other people than me from the Nordic countries. Hey Swedish could be our secret language. We can talk bad about the others behind their backs and they couldn't really understand anything... Nah! Just kidding I have nothing bad to say about you. You guys are great! Thanks for the reviews and once again keep them coming. And also next chapter will be up ASAP... possibly even tomorrow.

P.S. sorry about the lack of Chan and Mon in this chapter. I just can't think of anything to write with them until something happens...but don't worry that something will happen in this chapter so the next chapter will be pretty good C&M chapter. Also sorry about the curse words... there might be some of those *blushing.

Note that this is an au fic so some characters are very different from what they are in the show. :)

Chapter 5 "Insomnia"

Chandler decided to try channel surfing for a change, but all that came this time of the night was some B-class movies with unbelievably boring or/and ridiculous plots. Besides all the sappy and corny romance scenes just reminded him of Cathy... well even the left overs of a week old bad smelling take out food reminded him of Cathy. He hadn't dared to throw it away. It was the last meal they had eaten together before the wedding since all of Cathy's time was going to the planning.
Now he knew better. It wasn't the planning that had token her time...no, no NO! All of those times she had come home so late saying she was just with the Geller Catering she had been lying! Yes lying! Chandler covered his ears as if it stopped him from hearing his own thoughts. But it off course didn't. As a matter of fact it just made them louder and more clearer. Was this ever going to stop...

Rach quickly ran into the closet as Ross walked in smiling. He had just decided to go sight seeing with Cathy, but then noticed that he had forgotten his wallet. Well the time difference had really worn him down. He had actually wanted to go to sleep, but Cathy had insisted that they go outside. They wouldn't be here for long and they should take all the possible advantage of this trip. Ross was just about to take his wallet from the bedtime table as he noticed his jacket laying on the bed.
"Well I might as well put that on the closet while I'm here." he said to himself picking it up carefully. He remembered not leaving it into the position it was right now but he shook his head thinking that he was crazy. Who would touch his jacket? Nobody had the access to this room except the cleaners. Besides Cathy and he had only been gone what? like 10 minutes! Ross walked over to the closet and was about to open it.
Rachel couldn't look so she closed her eyes praying he wouldn't notice her, but who was she kidding!
"What the!!!" Ross yelled as he spotted Rachel in the closet. The last thing he had expected was to find a woman curled up in their suite's closet. Ross just stared at her shocked for a long while before Rachel finally broke the tension between them.
"Surprise." she stuttered quietly smiling weakly.
"Who the hell are you!? And what the hell are you doing in our closet?!" Ross was finally able to say.
"Well technically you don't actually own this closet, Beach Palace hotel is the..."
"I asked you a question!" Ross kept yelling. He was very confused. He had no idea who this woman was nor what she was doing in their hotel room, but he surely intended to find out.
"You have no right to yell at me! I am the one who should yell at you... You wife stealer!" Rachel pointed. She was sick of this man already even though she had just met him. This man had just stolen her best friend's fiancée and he had the nerve to yell at her.
"Oh.... So Chandler sent you here." Ross laughed ironically finally realizing what this was all about. "I should have guessed."
"So what if he did?"
Ross' ironical laugh made Rach even more annoyed than she already was. "Damn this guy has a nerve!" she had to admit that no one else had ever succeeded in making her this irritated before. She swore if he kept that smug look on his face for a little while longer she might just strangle him.
"Well I'm sorry, but this is our room so why don't you leave before I call the security." Ross said stopping her train of thought.
"What?! This is no room of yours! This is actually Chandler's room! He paid for this. So why don't YOU leave before I call the security." Rachel said determinately.
"Well Ok, but maybe I'll just throw you out myself then." Ross smiled and easily picked Rachel up surprising her totally.
"LET ME DOWN RIGHT NOW!" she demanded, but Ross pretended not to listen.
He walked out of the room and let her down as soon as he was there. Then he slammed the door to her face.
"You son of a bitch!!" Rachel yelled and started banging the door. She was tired as it was... this was really the last thing she needed right now.
"You do know that I won't leave until you come out and when you do I'll get your room!" she shouted being very irritated.

Monica looked at the empty box of ice cream in front of her...she always did this. Felt sorry for herself and ate afterwards and then came the unbearable guilt. She yawned for probably the hundredth time during this last half an hour. That's how tired she felt, yet she knew that she couldn't get any sleep as hard as she tried. She missed her brother so much although it had only been few days since she saw him the last time standing just in front of her door. Monica took a quick peek at her brother's exact standing point and kept remembering his last words over and over again in her head. "Please understand" he had said...she did understand.
It was love. Something she wanted to experience herself someday...something she considered to be one of the most important things in life yet she didn't even know how it felt...to be in love I mean. Well off course she loved Ross and her parents but that was different. It wasn't the kind of love she needed. Love between man and a woman. Husband and a wife. That was what she wanted...more than anything. That was what she deserved.

Rachel was sitting in front of Cathy and Ross' room reading a magazine she had found in her purse earlier. She didn't know what the time was nor did she care. In fact she didn't even know how long she had been sitting there. All she knew was that it certainly felt like an eternity. Suddenly the cell phone ringing in her back startled her. Quickly she opened her back and crabbed her phone. She was tired and very irritated. Couldn't she even read her magazine without being interrupted. Then she thought that it might be Chandler wanting to know if she has had any progress. "Oh my God!" she thought shocked. He's gonna be devastated when he hears that Cathy ran out with Ross Geller." Rachel wondered how she was gonna break the news to him, but her thoughts were interrupted by the phone ringing once again and she realized that she didn't really have time to think about it since she had to answer.
"Rachel Green's detective service." she started thinking that humor would lighten the news.
"What??" Chandler asked with a small laugh.
"Nothing I have just always wanted to say that." She smiled. "So how are you?"
"I was actually going to ask you the same question. Have you found out anything new yet"
"Well I know where they are staying and..." Rachel trailed off not really sure if she was ready to tell Chandler just yet.
"And?" Chandler asked on the other end which forced Rachel to continue.
"I know the identity of the man that Cathy is with." she swallowed hard.
"Well done. You are really quick. So who is this bastard?" Chandler asked eagerly all though he wasn't sure whether or not he was ready to find out knowing that after this there would be no turning back.
"Well I don't know if you wanna hear this..."
"I do!" Chandler stopped Rachel before she had the change to finish.
"It's Ross Geller..."
"Ross Geller!! As in the second owner of the Geller Catering!!! I can't believe this!" Chandler yelled angrily.
"Yes I know but at least you don't have to pay anything for the catering business since it was their fault that the wedding was ruined..."
"No!!! I paid them all ready..."
"But you can always call the bank and have the check canceled."
"Oh My god! She knew!!!"
"What are you talking about?" Rachel asked surprised of the sudden out burst.
"Monica Geller. She knew about this...and that's why she didn't accept checks! She knew that if I found out I could cancel the check and then she wouldn't get her money. That evil...How can anybody be that devilish. I just lost my wife and its all because of the Geller Catering siblings and yet they still didn't stop there. No No no! They wanted my money as well!" Chandler was full of rage. He couldn't believe what a fool he had been. Monica Gellers devilishly beautiful face appeared in his head. "She is gonna pay for what she did! Even if that is the last thing I do. She is gonna pay!" Chandler swore to himself and disconnected the phone before Rachel had a change to speak another word. He took his jacket from the hanger and left his apartment slamming the door angrily behind him knowing exactly where he would be going.

Rachel looked at her phone surprised by Chandler's behavior. She knew Chandler and that he had quite a temper, but she still had never heard him so angry before. She didn't really want to be in Monica's shoes right now. She knew that Chandler could never hurt anyone physically at least not a woman, but emotionally he was more than capable of hurting anyone. Rachel wondered how long she was going to have to sit on the hall way. Her position was very uncomfortable and her back was killing her. She would do anything to be able to go home right now or at least to be able to go to sleep, but she had to wait till either Ross came out from the room or Cathy appeared. She had to do this for Chandler. He was her best friend and if someone was messing with him that meant that they were also messing with her. Ross Geller... That name made her puke. There's probably nothing meaner than to steal someone else's fiancée just before their wedding. One's wedding should be the happiest day of one's life, but for Chandler it was a nightmare and that made Rachel both sad AND angry.
Suddenly she saw the elevator door open and spotted Cathy there.
"CATHY!" she yelled angrily and was about to run and get her, but she being very shocked closed the elevator door just in time.
"Oh you can't run forever!" Rachel yelled behind her, but it was already too late. Cathy was long gone.
"This is just great!" Rachel cursed thinking that thinks couldn't really get any worse. This had already been the worst day of her life... nothing could really ruin it any more but soon after Ross opened the door and Rachel took her thoughts back. Seeing his annoying face again really was able to make the day even worse.
Ross just kept the door open and stared at her without saying a word. Rachel saw this as an opportunity and quickly ran inside.
"ha ha ha! Caught you!" she laughed and did a little victory dance thinking that finally something went right.
"I was actually about to let you in." Ross smiled not letting her have the pleasure of success for long.
"Oh...why?" Rachel asked confusedly.She was suspicious. This man was obviously planning something... and she wanted to know what it was. "Probably some scheme against Chandler again.. You scheming bastard." she thought deep in her mind, but didn't dare to say it aloud.
"Well I know you're not gonna stop guarding my door so you might as well just guard me from this side of it." Ross smiled ironically and then checked his watch.
Rachel was surprised... Was that really the only reason he had let her in... If it was then maybe, just maybe this guy wasn't as bad as she had thought.... Rachel tossed the thought away quickly remembering that this was the guy who had stolen Cathy and left Chandler broken hearted. She didn't say anything... she couldn't really think of anything to say. Besides why would she wanna even try to communicate this man? She hated him, right?
"I wonder where Cathy is?" Ross asked worriedly interrupting her thoughts.
"Don't worry, Your little porky pine is just fine, but I don't think we're gonna see her in a while." Rachel laughed maliciously.
"What do you mean?"
"Well she saw me and ran out!"
"What!! Where's she gonna go?!" Ross asked. Rachel couldn't really tell whether his tone was worried or what, but she definitely got a weird vibe from it. Like she hadn't really been told everything. Like a piece was missing from the puzzle.
"Well probably the hell away from this country!" she said ignoring her own thoughts.
"No she couldn't have! We had an agreement!" Ross let it slip out.
"Yeah well..." Rachel smiled, but stopped after realizing what Ross had just said.
"an Agreement?!" she asked now being more confused than ever.
"Never mind." Ross mumbled as Rachel watched his every move carefully. "What the hell did Ross mean? What agreement?" Rachel secretly thought. She was afraid to ask, 'cause she knew that whatever it was it wasn't going to be good.
"What is this agreement you're talking about?" She asked, finally getting enough courage.
