by cherokee10

A/N: this is a young Mondler/Rosschel story. It takes place in summer '86. Mr. and Mrs. Geller are renting a beach house all summer, Monica invites Rachel, Ross invites Carol and Chandler. Ross is still in love with Rachel and denying it, due to the fact that he's with Carol. Chandler doesn't find out that Monica is skinny now until the beginning. It's the summer after the first

11. Chapter 11

Once everyone had showered and dressed for the day, Mr. and Mrs. Geller sat them down in the living room (except for Carol who was still in the shower). "Your father and I are going on an all day couples spa treatment in town," Mrs. Geller announced, handing each teenager a $50 bill. "Girls I want you to bond with Carol, spend the day out, take her shopping, treat her to lunch." She said handing them an extra 50. "Boys… find something to do." She finished and walked out the door, dragging her husband with her.

"Problem solved," whispered Monica. "What problem?" Rachel asked loudly. "Monica and I had just been worried about finding something to do today; but now it's all laid out for us!" Chandler bluffed, "Ross, why don't we see that new movie Howard the Duck and get some drinks?" "Sounds good to me," he replied, "Girls, I've got Carol's money when you need it. She should be out of the shower any minute now. Where are you planning on taking her?" Rachel exchanged a glance with Monica, "I was thinking we would start off at the beach, since you're going to need our one remaining car. We can sunbathe, swim, play, and just hang out together for a while there. Then we'll walk down to the shopping center that branches off the south end of the

beach. We can have lunch and shop there for a few hours and then, if there's any time left, you guys can come pick us up and we'll pool all our money and do something together!" She sounded pleased with herself. "That sounds fun," Carol said, coming up the stairs combing out her wet hair, "Lets do it!"
