May 2000
Let's get on with it
(Scene: M & R apartment)
Phoebe: What's bothering you
Monica: Nothing
Phoebe: Look I can tell that something is bothering you
Monica: No there's nothing
Phoebe: Oké I gotta go, but if you change your mind you know where you can find me
Joey: Yeah I'm gonna go to, bye bye
Chandler: Bye see you later
(Phoebe and Joey leave Chandler and Monica alone)
(Chandler and Monica are still sitting close next to eachother on
the chair)
Chandler: He what's wrong, you can tell me. I can see it to you know.
Monica: (hesitantly) I gotta go
Chandler: (He grabs her round her waist before she even can get
out of the chair) Why don't you just
tell me. I'm your best friend. You can share everything with me, you
know that don't you
Monica: I do, but...
Chandler: No but's just tell
(Before he could finish his sentence Rachel comes in. She puts
her purse down on the table and
grabs a drink from the refrigerator)
Rachel: Hi, what's up with you two?
Chandler: I was just on my way out
Rachel: oh, oke bye than
(Rachel gets up to pick up a magazine that's lying on the table.
Meanwhile Chandler gets up from the
chair and Monica softly squeezes his hand)
Chandler: (Whispers) We talk later
(He walks out the door)
Rachel: So how was your day at work?
Monica: The usual. I'm tired. I'm gonna go to bed, see you in the morning
Rachel: Yeah goodnight.
(Rachel sits down and starts looking in the magazine, a few minutes later Monica walks out again)
Monica: I forgot to ask Chandler something
(She walks out the door to the boy's apartment and knocks on the
door. Chandler opens the door to
reveal Monica)
Chandler: (softly) hi
Monica: I really need to talk, because something is bothering me like hell, is Joey here
Chandler: No he isn't he's out tonight, come on in
(Monica comes in and sits down in one of the chairs, Chandler goes and sit in the other)
Chandler: So what's bothering you
Monica: (Softly crying) Well.. I..I..was fired today
Chandler: Oh I'm so sorry
(Chandler gets up and sits down on the arm of chair where Monica
sits. Like when he did in TOW
the girl from Poughkeepsie only then by Rachel. He puts his arm
around her and softly brushes her
tears from her eyes)
Chandler: Don't cry. I'm sure you can find a better job than this one. You didn't even liked this one
Monica: I know but it's like my whole life isn't worth living for
Chandler: Don't say that. There are many reasons to live your live. Like for me
Monica: For you
Chandler: Yeah me. Whenever I feel down you are the one to cheer me up.
Monica: You're kidding right
Chandler: No I'm not
Monica: But a few months ago I lost Richard and now I lost my
job. When I tell my mother I'm sure
I get one of her lectures.
Chandler: You won't have to tell her, you know.
Monica: She's gonna found out sooner or later. When Rachel finds
out I'm sure she tells Ross and he
tells my mother, so
Chandler: So you're 29 now. It's your life now
(She begins to cry again and Chandler try's to comfort Monica by hugging her)
Chandler: why don't we go and grab a coffee or something
Monica: No I wanna stay here with you
Chandler: Oke, you know your smart and beautiful and I'm sure
everything's gonna be fine. Look at
me I was from a dysfunctional family from the nineties and look how
I turned out.
(Monica starts laughing)
Chandler: What?
Monica: It always works. I don't know how you do it but you always find a way to crack me up
Chandler: That's why I'm your best friend, right
Monica: Right
Chandler: Why don't we go somewhere tomorrow, what do think
Monica: But you have to work tomorrow
Chandler: Well I can get the day off, I'm the boss
Monica: Oke sounds great
(She hugs him again. Monica gets up and walks to the door before
she opens the door she turns to
look at Chandler)
Monica: Thanks
Chandler: Anytime
(Next day)
Chandler comes out of his apartment and heads for Monica's apartment. He enters the apartment)
Chandler: Monica. Are you ready?
(Only he's not noticing that Rachel is lying on the couch reading a magazine)
Rachel: Ready for what Chandler. I thought you had to work and so is Monica
Chandler: Ehm.. well I'm giving her a ride
(Monica walks out of her room)
Monica: yeah I'm ready to go. Oke bye Rachel see you tonight
(They walk out and head downstairs. You see various scenes with
Chandler and Monica eating
lunch, walking in a park and when they are having dinner in a fancy
restaurant)
Monica: Thanks for dinner.
Chandler: You're welcome
Monica: I have only one question for you
Chandler: And that is?
Monica: Why are you going through so many troubles just for my
Chandler: I don't know, I just love hanging around with you, your
one of my favorite people you
know
Monica: Thanks
(Later you see Chandler and Monica drinking at bar and talking.
They are a little drunk, not to much.
They're going home and support eachother. They stumble upstairs and
Chandler helps Monica into
her apartment. They both land on the couch)
Chandler: I'm really tired, I think I'm going home now, oke
Monica: Can't you just stay for a little while?
Chandler: Why?
Monica: Because I don't want to be alone now
Chandler: Oke just a little while then
(Monica curls up to Chandler and puts her head on his lap,
Chandler gently strokes her hair, while
Monica looks up to him, Chandler stares into space and starts
thinking)
Monica: (whispers) Chandler what are you thinking
Chandler: Huh oh I was just, nothing
(Monica falls lightly asleep on Chandler's lap and Chandler is
also tired but doesn't want to move
Monica, otherwise she would wake up)
Chandler: (Whispering to Monica who's asleep) Wow you look so
pretty just like a princess and yet
you have so much to worry about. And why?
(Monica was just lightly asleep and heard the words that Chandler
was saying to her. Slowly
Chandler bends his head down to give her a kiss on her cheek and go
home but Monica turns her head up to say something to him and by accident Chandler gives
her a kiss full on her mouth. They are both surprised and yet embarrassed)
Chandler: Oh my god I'm so sorry it wasn't my intention to kiss you
(Quickly Chandler gets up and walks round the couch as Monica
gets on her knees on the couch and
grabs Chandler's tie. They're very close and Monica kisses him
softly on the lips at first Chandler is
stunned but grows into the kiss and falls on to the couch and Monica
climbs on top of him and she
starts to kiss him again, but Chandler breaks it)
Chandler: This isn't good, this isn't good, I gotta I gotta go
(He starts to get up but Monica stops him)
Monica: (softly) Shhh keep your voice down.
Chandler: Sorry, but I can't stay here
Monica: Why Chandler? Why?
Chandler: This isn't right, in the first please I wanted to kiss
you on your cheek, just a friendly kiss.
You've made me all confused
Monica: Stop it Chandler. I'm sorry but you're confused how about me. How do you think I feel
Chandler: I only know that we shouldn't have kissed eachother
Monica: I'm sorry to disappoint you but we did and I'm sure you felt something to, don't you
Chandler: I really gotta go now and no I didn't feel anything were just friends
(Monica can't believe he said that and kisses him again more
passionately, she breaks the kiss after a
few seconds)
Monica: How about that, you can't fool me and say that you didn't feel anything
Chandler: oke I did feel something, but we can't keep doing to this
Monica: And why not
Chandler: Like I said before were best friends and...Oh what the hell
Monica: Oh shut up Chandler and kiss me
(He softly puts his hands round Monica's face and starts to kiss
monica's neck and slowly goes up to
her face)
Chandler: (In between kisses) You know I always wanted to do this, ever since the day we met.
Monica: I know.
(Chandler gently picks Monica in his arms and carries her into
the bedroom. In the room he puts her
on the bed and starts unbuttoning her blouse. Monica gets rid of the
tie Chandler has on and takes of
his shirt)
Chandler: You're sure about this
Monica: I'm really really sure
(He starts to kiss her and the scene fades)
Next day
(Monica's room: the room is dark and there are clothes spread
over the floor. Chandler and Monica
are lying curled up in eachothers arms)
Chandler: (Softly) Monica, Monica you have to wake up it's 7.30
(Monica slowly wakes up and sees Chandler she smiles to him and gives him a kiss)
Monica: I don't wanna wake up
Chandler: I have to go my apartment
Monica: Why?
Chandler: You don't want to let the others know about us yet, do you?
Monica: No not yet. I just wanne know how things are gonna go from here
Chandler: Oke than I have to go now
(Chandler gets out of bed and starts to get dressed. Monica sits
up in bed and watches Chandler
getting dressed)
Monica: I can hardly believe this is happening
Chandler: I know but it did. And I'm glad it did
Monica: Me too
Chandler: So I'll see you tonight
Monica: Why don't I come to your office so we can have lunch together
Chandler: Sounds great. Oke I gotta go, bye
(Before he walks out the door he kisses her rather passionate and
it seems there's gonna be no end
to that kiss. Monica eventually breaks the kiss)
Monica: You have to go now otherwise Rachel might be up and sees you, oke
Chandler: Oke bye
(Chandler walks out and closes the door of Monica's bedroom and walks out of the apartment to go to his apartment. Meanwhile Monica is back under the covers and starts dreaming about.....)
The end for now it's up to you
Any suggestions of how I should continue, example:
1) Monica starts dreaming about Richard
2) Monica gets very sick when she's eating breakfast
3) Just before Chandler walks out Rachel sees him
4) Chandler is on his way to work when he gets an accident
5) When Monica comes to Chandler's office there's an other girl waiting for Chandler
6) Chandler's getting transferred (I know a lot of you did that, but I write different you
know)
Maybe someone out there knows has a suggestion of how I should continue, please E-mail
me then at: ilonafriends@yahoo.com
