Hi guys. Here will be a scene or two from the show, because I still want Phoebe to meet the cop and… I thought it would be fun to follow the show. Tell me if it's a bad idea.

The One With The Cop
The same night, Monica and Chandler were sitting in the barca lounger doing crosswords together in the guys apartment, when Joey came in.
"Hey." Joey said.
"Hey." Monica and Chandler said.
"What are you guys doing?" Joey asked.
"Oh, we wanted to finish the crossword before we go to bed." Chandler said, kissing Monica on the forehead. "Hey, do you know a six-letter word for red?"
"Dark red." Joey said proudly.
"Yeah I think that's wrong, but there's a connect-the-dots in here for you later." Chandler said sarcastically. "Hey, how about maroon?" he added.
"Yes!" Monica said, looking at the cross word "You are so smart." she said kissing him.
"Aw… You guys are so cute." Joey said, looking at them, smiling.
"I know." Monica replied in her Monica-way.
"All right. I'll se you in the morning." Joey said and went to bed.
"Okay." Chandler and Monica said.
Monday morning, they were all sitting in Central Perk, except Joey and Ross.
"Oh look! I found a police badge under here." Phoebe said, as she was looking for tips under the cushion of the armchair.
"Great Pheebs…" Rachel replied.
"Ooh, now I can be arresting people and stuff."
"I don't think that's a good idea, honey." Monica said grinning.
"Hi honey." Ross said, entering the coffee house.
"Hi sweetie." Chandler said sarcastically.
"Ha ha, funny." Ross said, kissing Rachel and sat down next to her in the couch.
"How are you honey?" Rachel asked him.
"Good, you know, but I kind of missed you." Ross said shyly.
"I missed you too." Rachel said kissing him again.
"Our couch has been invaded by another couple, honey." Chandler said to Monica, and she laughed.
"I was wondering… I'm going to buy myself a couch today, will you help me Rach?" Ross said.
"Of course, honey. Come on, let's go." Rachel said.
"Great. See you guys later." Ross said, and followed her.
"It's so great they got back together." Monica said. "They really needed that."
"Yeah, it's great." Phoebe and Chandler nodded.
"You noticed how weird Joey acted around me this morning, Chandler?"
"Uh-huh. It was like he wanted to get out of there when you came in for breakfast." Chandler wondered.
"Weird, maybe he doesn't like me being around all the time." Monica said.
"See, that would be weird!" Chandler said. "But listen, I have got to go to work honey." he said, kissing her on the cheek. "See you, Pheebs." he continued and left.
After a lot of looking around in the store, Ross finally made up his mind about a couch.
"You two will really enjoy this couch." the sales man said.
"Thanks." Ross replied.
"Are you two really together? Something doesn't quite add up here." the sales man continued.
"What's that supposed to mean?" Ross asked.
"Well, you. Her. I mean she's very…you know. And you're like…you know." he said, very rude.
"We are actually together." Ross said, a little angry with him.
"Really? You two?"
"Tell him we're dating, Rach." Ross said.
"I don't want to do this right now, I'm carrying a heavy couch for God's sake." Rachel said.
"Then tell him quickly." Ross said, a little annoyed.
"Fine, we're together." Rachel said a little embarrassed.
"Not only are we going out, but we did it 300 times." Ross said.
"Ross! Are you keeping count? Oh my God." Rachel yelled, then added in a little lower voice, "Really, is it that many?" and smiled a little. Then they left.
Then they got home to Ross' apartment.
"You're embarrassed about me? I can't believe you are embarrassed about me!" Ross said.
"Ross, would you stop? I'm not embarrassed…about you."
"Yes you are, thanks very much Rach. I thought we were really back together." he said, left and slammed the door after himself.
God, he's storming out of his own apartment… Wait, I've done that myself, who am I to talk? Rachel thought to herself.
Monday night in the coffee house. Everybody is there, except from Ross and Rachel, talking about Joey having a dream about him and Monica doing crosswords.
"Joey, don't worry about it. It was probably because you're missing the closeness Chandler and I have." Monica said.
"Yeah, how do you get that?" Joey asked.
"Um… Monica and I were friends first. Maybe that's why?" Chandler considered.
"Maybe you're right, I should hook up with a friend…" Joey said "How are you doing?" he asked Phoebe in his 'hook-up-way'.
"I'm fine, you?" Phoebe said with a smile. "But I met this cop today who owned my police badge. He's so cute. We have a date tomorrow night."
"That's great, Pheebs." Monica said.
"Hey…" Ross said in his depressed kind of way, as he entered Central Perk.
"What's wrong, Ross?" Joey asked.
"Rachel is embarrassed about me." He mumbled.
"Oh… of course she's not…" Monica said.
"Ross, I need to talk to you." Rachel said, as she entered.
"No Rach, listen…"
"No, you listen to me, Ross. Come up to my apartment." Rachel said.
"Okay…fine."
