[1:25 am, Chandler's house]

Monica handed Chandler some medicine and a glass of water to wash it down. They we're sitting on the couch.

Monica: Blanche seems nice.

Chandler: She is. She's pretty, she's smart and funny.

Monica: How did you meet?

Chandler: We worked at the same department. We started out just as friends but we ended up together eventually.

Monica: Well...I hope you guys last.

Chandler: Thanks.

Things got awkward and chandler wanted to get out of this situation. He hated lying to her.

Chandler: I think i better sleep. I need some rest.

She forced a smile and looked down. Chandler went in his room.

Monica went outside and just sat on the gound, holding back her tears and hugging her knees.

"Need anyone?" A familiar voice said as she looked up at him.

"C-calvin. What are you doing here? I thought you went home?"

"I just-ahh wanted to see you. I live across the street." Monica just looked at him with a face where you can easily tell that she's experiencing sadness.

"Come on, let's take you inside." Calvin reaches his hand to her and she took it and stood up. They went inside and she sat on the marble table in the kitchen.

"What seems to be the problem?"

"It's Chandler. He's happy now. He has a great career, he found someone he loves. And me...Well, I don't wanna ruin his life. It's a lot to take in knowing that the person you love might not love you back but I guess it's time to let go right? It's been a long time! I should be over this!"

Monica felt too vulnerable.

"I know I'm being ridiculous but..You just don't know how it feels!" she continued as she faced down.

Calvin:"To be lonely?" Monica nods."I think I do." he kisses her forehead. Monica looks back and him. Calvin's face gets closer...

Chandler walks in..

Chandler: Hey mon, i can't  fall- his heart fell and he went back inside.

They we're in the room, Calvin gives her soft kisses and it went deeper and more passionate. All of a sudden, monica pulls out.

"I..I can't do it."

"Don't worry. I understand. Well, I guess I'll have to leave. I just got rejected for the first time in my life!" Calvin walks out the room.

"I'M SORRY!" Monica shouts.

Chandler falls to pieces. Then he hears someone closing the door. He knew what he needed to do. He decides to run outside and confront Calvin. He sees him getting his car keys out of his pocket.

"What are you doing man?" 

"I'm going home."

"If you're my bestfriend, you're gonna stay away from him and quit being such a jerk." Calvin was pissed off with his attitude. Doesn't he know that he's the reason why Monica is miserable?

"I don't think you have a clear view on who the jerk is. Is it the guy who's willing to be there for her...Or is it the guy who left her? It's a really hard question right? Why do you have to be so unfair to her? I thought you and blanche are already together?"  Calvin actually knew that him and Blanche was fake.

Before you know it, Chandler punched him in the face which made the corner of his lips bleed and he wiped it off. 

"You know what? I'm not even fighting back." Calvin opened the door to his car, got in and left.

Chandler laid down on the couch.

No. Monica isn't miserable because of me. Is she? She's the one who pushed me away. I should be mad at her. I tried my best to keep in contact.and I was willing to have a long distance relationship with her. I know everyone says that doesn't work but with her I know it could! She just didn't give it a chance. I know she never dated anyone since we broke up but I'm not to sure. I don't wanna be insensitive though cause if Calvin had something going on with her, he wouldn't leave so fast. I guess all i'm saying is...I wanna hear it from her. I wanna hear those three words again from the woman I love.

Chandler stayed up late cause he couldn't sleep having these thoughts. He closed his eyes and tried to fall asleep until it was 4 am and Joey, Rachel, Ross and Phoebe went home good and drunk. Except for Ross because he had to drive home. Chandler didn't bother to greet them and they just went straight to their rooms. Later in the early morning, about 6 am Monica was up. Stretching and make those sounds that are not necessary but you just do.

Her eyes catches Chandler sleeping. 

She watched him sleep and slowly breathe in and out. He looked so sound that's why she stroked his hair without any fear that he'll wake up.

"*laughs* Look at you, you're so perfect. And me? I'm a mess. You're right infront of me yet I feel so far away from you. Soo ummm- She got a little choked up. *laughs* Okay Monica, pull yourself together!(She said to herself as she stiffens her upper lip) I wish I thought of the things I did before I got to actually do it. Because you know what? Until this very moment i'm still crazy about you. Oh and by the way, I don't know who sent that fuckin email. I swear it wasn't me! I think someone hacked me. Ugh. Whoever that was, it's all her fault. Whoever that bitch is should get some kind of karma!  Anyways,its the past and maybe it happened for a reason. Just- just don't throw it all away. PLEASE. Because i'm not throwing it all away. I'm still here. Still not giving up on us even if It looks like we're not going anywhere near to what we swore was forever...Welp...I guess that's it...Aaand..I love you. So much."  You can hear a crack in her voice but she didn't cry. She had to hold back her tears because she knew that she couldn't stay like that forever.

Monica got up and went to the kitchen to have some cofee.. She made some chocolate chip pancakes for the guys and when they wake up.
