The Love of My Life Chapter 7

Flashback: The day before

As Rachel lay in bed that night she couldn't help but remember that chilling phone call that she had gotten. She had an errie feeling that something would go wrong. Someone would get hurt.

Rachel had a good life. No one had bothered her all throughout her school years. She was always popular and well liked by everyone. Her parents had split when she was a little girl. But even that didn't really phase her until she was about 10. But then she made friends with the only person that she had never talked to. Monica Geller was fat and unpopular. But they became the best of friends and still were. Rachel had helped Monica lose that weight and was there for her whenever she was feeling bad. But something told Rachel that she wouldn't be the one to save Monica this time.

********************************** As Chandler watched tv that night he couldn't help but think of Monica. He had been watching tv for about an hour and couldn't tell you a thing that had happened, he didn't even know what he was watching. He had become much more protective over Monica since Rachel had gotten that phone call. But he was already so not much changed. He loved her and would do anything for her...anything.

********************************* Monica smiled as she got into bed. As she went to turn out the light she smiled as she saw the picture of the two of them. Rachel had taken it when they had first started going out. Neither of them was looking at the camera, but at each other, the love evident in both of their eyes. Rachel had framed it and given it to Monica as a gift for being such a great friend. That was the last thing that Monica looked at everynight before she went to bed. Monica thought that it was the most beautiful picture that she had seen in her whole life. When Chandler had seen it, he had agreed wholeheartly.

*******************************

Ross was getting into bed when he got a strange feeling that he was being watched. He walked over to his window and made sure that it was locked. He figured that it was just from that movie he had watched no more than an hour ago. Thinking of nothing but Rachel and how beautiful she was he fell into a fitful sleep only to be awakened hours later by that feeling again. This time he knew that it wasn't the movie. He held a picture of Rachel to his chest and fell into another fitful sleep.

****************************

Joey was the only one of the five who was unable to get to sleep that night. He had met this girl named Phoebe the other day. She had told him that something didn't feel right. Joey although he acted stupid had felt the same way for a while. He didn't know what to do so he just tried to ignore it. But tonight he felt that something would happen to one of his friends...something terrible and there was nothing that he could do to stop it.

How can you see into my eyes Like open doors. Leading you down into my core Where I've become so numb. Without a soul My spirit's sleeping somewhere cold Until you find it there and lead it back home.

(wake me up. Wake me up inside. I can't wake up. Wake me up inside. Save me. Call my name and save me from the dark. Wake me up. Bid my blood to run. I can't wake up. Before I come undone. Save me. Save me from the nothing I've become.)

Now that I know what I'm without You can't just leave me. Breathe into me and make me real Bring me to life.

[chorus]

Bring me to life. I've been living a lie There's nothing inside. Bring me to life.

Frozen inside without your touch, Without your love, darling. Only you are the life among the dead.

All of this sight I can't believe I couldn't see Kept in the dark But you were there in front of me

I've been sleeping a 1000 years it seems. I've got to open my eyes to everything.

Without a thought Without a voice Without a soul

Don't let me die here There must be something wrong. Bring me to life.

[chorus]

Bring me to life. I've been living a lie There's nothing inside.

Bring me to life
Bring Me To Life

I know that it was short but I had to get some of that in so that the next chapter would make sense. Please review and I'll post faster.
