"Ok.so.New York.five years ago." Chandler said.
"Yea, look Chandler, I'm really sorry, I don't know what I was thinking!" Rachel pleaded. "I mean, don't ever think that I didn't love you, because I really, truly did! It's just that, Ross was there, and we were talking about, something, I don't know what, and the next thing I knew, we were kissing!"
"Rach, look, it's ok, you and Ross are meant for each other, Ross has been in love with you since what, 9th going to be marriage. I mean, I loved you too! But Ross clearly loves you a lot more than I could ever have. So I'm fine with it, I forgave both of you long ago."
"Oh, thank you for being so understanding Chandler, you're the best friend anybody could ever have!"
"Yea, I know." Chandler said with a smile on his face and Rachel gave a small laugh. "Come here." He said, pulling her in for a tight hug.
"Ok, well we better get to the theater or their going to think we got lost." Rachel said standing up.
"How would I get lost in my own house?"
"I don't know, but Joey seems to think it's pretty easy, he's gotten lost in his apartment before." Rachel said as she helped Chandler out of his chair.
"Really? Wow, well that's pretty sad." Chandler said as he straightened his shirt out.
"Well, it's Joey we're talking about here!"
"Yea, you're right. Oh well, let's go." Chandler looked around with a smile on his face. "You're it!" He yelled and took off running down the hallway.
"Hey! That's not fair!" Rachel yelled back and took off after him.
((((
-the next morning. Everybody is sleeping either on a couch or the floor; Chandler slept in his room with Nicky-
Nicky's eyes slowly fluttered open. She was lying on her side; Chandler was pressed firmly up against her, his arms wrapped around her protectively. She smiled at his sleeping face. He was always so cute when he slept; he had a slight smile on his face. She reached up and kissed him softly on his lips. He made an 'Mmmmm' sound and rolled on his back. Nicky rolled with him and laid her body against his.
"Wake up beautiful" She whispered.
"Mm, no I don't want to."
Nicky laughed and kissed him again, this time longer. Once the kiss was over Chandler slowly opened his eyes and looked down at Nicky.
"Morning babe." He smiled.
"Mornin' to you too." She smiled back.
"What time is it?" He asked.
"It's 11:00." She said, rolling over to look at the clock on the nightstand.
"We should get up, I have to be at my agent's office in an hour." He said as he sat up.
"What for? I thought you were taking some time off." Nicky asked, also sitting up and getting off the bed.
"I am, but she wanted to talk to me about something, I have no idea what though." Chandler said, getting off the bed and taking his shirt off to change.
"Ok, well I'm going downstairs, you want me to make some coffee?" Nicky asked, heading for the door.
"Sure, I'll see you downstairs, I shouldn't be more than 20 minutes, I have to shower and everything."
"Alright, don't take too long, I have to shower too." Nicky said as she closed the door.
((((
-40 minutes later-
"Crap, crap, crap, I'm late, I'm late, I'm late" Chandler said, running down the stairs, shoes in hand.
"For a very important date!" Phoebe said, laughing. Chandler just stared at her as he came to a halt in front of the kitchen counter that also served as a table with bar stools.
"What took you so long?" Nicky asked, handing him a mug of coffee.
"I lost track of time!" Chandler said as he finished buttoning his shirt.
"Well you still have 20 minutes to get there. That's plenty of time." Ross said as he ate his cereal.
"No it's not! I have to stop at my friend's house and pick up a script! I have to go!" Chandler said as he struggled to get his shoes on and hop up and down at the same time.
"What's the script for?" Joey asked
"I don't know." Chandler said. "But I have to go, now. I should be back by two, three at the latest." He said looking at his watch. "Just make yourselves at home, again. You can go out if you want. The number for my limo driver is on the speed dial, number three. Use the pool if you want, TV, I got video games on the big screen in the family room, do anything you want, Nicky knows where everything is. And Nicky, that doesn't mean you have to stay here until I get home, you can go back to your house if you want, I'm sure you have stuff to do today too. Ok well, now I'm really late, I'll see you guys later. Bye!" And before anybody got a chance to say anything, he was gone.
((((
-Chandler's agent's office-
"Hi Kasey, sorry I'm late, I had to stop at my friends house and pick something up." Chandler said as he burst into the room.
"Hey Chandler, it's good to see you again." She said as she got up to give him a hug. Kasey had been his agent for five years, since he first stepped foot in Los Angeles. They had become good friends over the years and Kasey was always good at getting him work on TV and in movies and she always got every single one of his books and every other thing he wrote published.
"So, what did you want to talk to me about?" Chandler asked as he took a seat in her large office. It had leather chairs and a big oversized desk. The whole office was surrounded by large windows that went from the floor to the ceiling, well, every wall except for the one that had the door. The windows overlooked the beautiful city of angels. Off in the distance you could see the ocean; it was one of the most spectacular views in the entire city.
"Well, I have several different offers for you. The first one is an offer for a movie called 'Black Mountain'."
"Well, what's it about?"
"It's about a guy and some of his friends that go hiking on this mountain and they get lost and you know what happens basically."
"Yea, I think I'll pass on that one."
"Ok, the next offer is for a guest appearance on a TV show."
"What show?"
"Um, let me see here, aha! Celebrity Fear Factor."
"Ah, no."
"Ok, ok, understandable. Um, the last offer I have is for another movie called 'Out on Our Own'."
"And what is that one about?"
"Um, it's about two best friends and their band that move to LA in search of stardom. You would play lead guitar and be one of the lead singers."
"Hmm." Interested, Chandler sat forward. "You know, I really just wanted to be a writer, never really wanted to be an actor."
"Yes but you're so good at it! I mean, you're still a terrific writer but you're great at acting too."
"When does filming start? I kind of wanted to take some time off." He asked.
"Umm, it starts in a month and a half. So that gives you time to relax, maybe start writing another book or something."
"How much?" Chandler asked with a sigh.
"It pays 10 mil."
"Ten million? Whew, that's a pretty penny." Chandler said.
"Yea, well that's what happens when your fame goes up."
"Where are they filming it?"
"Well LA of course, but the first two weeks, you will be filming in New York, that's where the guys move from."
"Do you have the script?"
"Um." Kasey shuffled through the stack of papers on her desk. "Here it is!"
"Ok well let me look it over and I'll get back to you." Chandler said as he took the script from her outstretched hand and stood up.
"Ok but you only have until Sunday, that gives you five days. I'll be waiting."
"I'll see you around Kasey, call me if anything else comes up." Chandler gave her another hug and walked out the door. He didn't really want to do a movie or TV; he just wanted to write. But he got more money from acting than he did from writing, and writing took a lot longer.
