"What are you doing tonight?" Chandler took a big bite out of his banana. He was in New York. He had just bought a huge penthouse in New York and was moving his stuff in. He had also bought a beach house in Malibu but he wanted to get settled in New York first.

"I don't know.. maybe hang out with Phoebe. I'm not sure."

"Oh. That's cool.. She back from London already?"

"She's been back Chandler."

"What?"

"Yea.. she came back like a week ago..."

"Oh. Nobody told me that..." There was a long silence.

"Chandler..."

"Yep."

"It's been like 2 months since we've really separated... we've been talking everyday...And we haven't been screaming at each other.. and we're like... you know.. us again."

"Yea.."

"Are we going to get back together?"

"I don't know."

"You don't?"

"No."

"Oh."

"When will you know?"

"I don't know."

"Chandler I'm not gonna wait forever."

"Monica just chill when I'm ready then I'm ready.. remember I call the shots."

"I really think we're ready."

"We've been ready.."

"Then what the hell?"

"I wanna see what's out there.. I mean I've wanted to say something for a while I just haven't been able to.. I think we should see other people... We might find someone new." Monica was silent on the other end of the phone. "Mon.."

"But if we're ready to get back together then why do you need to see other people?"

"Because we're ready yea.. but... it's worth seeing if there's other people out there while we're at this. I mean we've... it's like... "

"I don't understand why. Are you still unsure whether or not you love me?"

"Apart of me is saying yes to that I mean even though we're separated we still talk everyday I mean it just feels like when we're working far away from each other like before.. I mean yes Monica I love you... but I wanna.. see if..."

"If you want to see other people then fine. If you don't want to be my husband then fine. Just tell me. If you want to be just friends fine. I'm tired of waiting. I really am. I don't even think you love me. I think you're just saying you do. "

"What the hell are you talking about I do love you."

"It's easy to say that. You can go up to anyone any time of the day and say I love you. But do you really mean it? You never meant it. You just said it. Chandler ... I don't want to wonder whether or not you love me... We're done." Monica hung up.

Monica opened the door to her car and propped 5 loaded Neiman Marcus bags onto the passenger seat. She really needed to get the whole Chandler thing out of her head. She started her car and backed out of the parking lot. She was going to go have dinner with Phoebe and Rachel. Sort of a welcome back dinner party for Phoebe since she came back from London, where she was shooting a movie. Monica saw a flash come from outside her window at a stop sign. She turned her head and saw a very hairy middle aged man taking pictures of her. She noticed that there were flashes coming from the other side of her car. It was a young man taking pictures of her. The light turned green and she drove as fast as she could. She noticed that the car behind her was very close to her. She began to drive even faster. There was a red light and she knew that if she stopped, the car behind her would smash right into her car so she ran the red light hoping that he would stop. But he didn't. Both cars on the side of her followed her at the exact same pace as well. The cars were all surrounding her. Monica saw a small Lexus pull in front of the car with the hair man. She sped up and went in front of the Lexus and made a U turn. She made a turn and drove even faster. She saw that the cars were nowhere near her. She came to a red light and slowly stopped. All of a sudden her head jerked forward, there was a loud crash behind her, she tried to step on the breaks but her black Mercedes was headed straight towards a Ford Explorer.

Chandler walked into Joey's apartment. There wasn't anyone there. "Joey?" He saw Joey walk into the room. "What happened to the party?"

"What are you doing here?"

"I thought there was a party."

"Why aren't you with Monica?"

"Well.. we're kind of separated."

".. you don't care or something?"

Chandler looked at him confused.

Joey shook his head looking pissed and started putting things into a suitcase.

"What's with the suitcase?"

"I'm going to L.A."

"Oh.. why?"

Joey sighed. "I know you're in denial but you gotta go see her."

"What the hell are you talking about?"

"Monica." Joey zipped up his suitcase.

"What about her?"

"The accident."

"What the hell are you talking about?"

"I'm talking about the car accident Monica was in today."

"WHAT! Monica was not in a car accident!"

"Yes she was."

"No she wasn't! I talked to her a couple hours ago. She wasn't."

"It's all over the news."

"I stopped watching the news since all they talked about was why me and Monica split. What are you talking about?"

"You didn't hear?"

"Does it look like I did?"

"Monica was in an accident this afternoon..."

"This a joke? Am I on Punk'd or something? This is really not funny."

"I'm not joking... I'm sorry man.. I.."

"Why didn't they call me?"

"I don't know I thought they did."

"I'm her husband. Who told you? Why would they tell the news and not me? I'm her husband!"

"Phoebe told me.. She's gonna meet me at the airport."

Tears began to fill Chandler's eyes. "Is she ok?"

Joey shrugged. "All I know is that her car is totaled."

"Oh god." Chandler said sitting down on the couch crying. "You know what car?"

"I'm sorry man."

"I hope she didn't take the Mercedes." Chandler said trying to breathe. "Were they big cars?" How could this happen? How could it happen to Monica? She was a careful driver. Almost as careful as Ross.

"I don't know.. Come on.. We'll go together. It'll be fine.. I'm sure Monica.. I'm sure she'll be ok.." Joey watched Chandler cry. "It's ok man." Joey patted his back.

"No.. no it's not Monica... she has to be fine.. She's.. she has to be. Why did it happen? It's so random! Why?" Tears rapidly fell down Chandler's cheeks.

"Come on.. we'll go to your apartment get you backed and go to L.A."

"No.. let's just.. go. We don't have time to pack me. Come on." Chandler grabbed Joey's bag and walked out. They went to the airport and boarded a private jet. The last conversation that Monica and Chandler had played in his head over and over again.

Joey tried to comfort Chandler as much as he could.. but it didn't help. Chandler just wanted to see Monica. Just wanted to be with her. Joey knew Chandler loved Monica. He didn't understand the idea of the whole separation. Nobody honestly really did. Chandler sat alone looking out the window. Joey could hear him whispering to himself. Saying things like 'Why?' 'How could this happen' 'Why didn't they call me?' Joey's never seen this side to Chandler.

As soon as they landed Chandler bolted out of the jet. As soon as he saw Phoebe tears tricked down his cheeks. Her car was parked nearby the landing so that Joey and Chandler didn't have to deal with any of the paparazzi. "How is she?" He knew it wasn't good because Phoebe was crying as well.

"She's... still alive.."

"Is it bad?"

"They won't let us see her.. they've been doing tests on her all night."

They got into the car and drove all the way to the hospital. It was a silent ride except for the sound of Chandler sniffling. As soon as they got to the hospital Chandler ran straight up to the receptionist. "I need to know what room Monica Gellar is in."

"I can't rele.."

"I'm her husband.. and I need to see her."

"Follow me." She said leading him to a room.

"Thank you." Chandler said quietly. He slowly opened the door to the room. He saw Monica's lifeless body. Tears ran down his cheeks. "Oh my god." He walked closer to the bed and saw the bruises and scratches on Monica's body. "Oh my god." She had a wrap around her ankle an a metal brace on her finger. "Oh baby... what happened?" He cried. She had a big band aid across her forehead. He sat down in the chair beside her and cried. He took her hand and kissed it. "I'm sorry.. So so sorry." He whispered. He looked at her face. Her beautiful face.

"Mr. Bing." The doctor said softly.

Chandler turned around and looked at him.

"You need to leave."

Chandler shook his head. "No.. I'm not leaving my wife."

"Sir you have to."

"No. I can't. I have to be here for her.. I have to sit here... I ..."

"Sir you have to leave."

"No." Chandler turned back and looked at her. "She's gonna be ok right?"

The doctor sighed. "I need to speak to you out here Mr. Bing." He left the room.
