Monica's POV
I wake up smiling somehow. One more day until I get to go back to New York. I jump out of bed getting ready for the day. I go to my last class. Tomorrow I leave. Tomorrow I will finally be happy.

Chandler's POV
I sit on the couch with Mary realizing that today is when Monica will be back. I decide that I don't want to see her so I decide to take Mary out for dinner and a movie. I hope that I won't have to face her tonight. I know I couldn't do that to myself.  It's going to be hard seeing Monica but it will have to happen sometime.

Monica's POV
Welcome to New York City. I hope you enjoyed your flight. Always remember to fly with Southwest.

I walk into JFK airport and feel my heart warm with happiness. I'm finally home. I grab my bag from baggage claim and hop into a cab. I step on to the smooth pavement. I approach Central Perk and walk in. I see Joey and Rachel sitting on the couch.
"Hey." I say sheepishly.
"MONICA!!!" Rachel yells. She practically tackles me in a hug.
"We missed you so much!" Joey tells me.
"I missed you guys too." I tell them finding myself in tears.  "Okay I'll see you guys later I have to go."
"What!? Why?" Rachel asks.
"I have something to do." I respond. Before they can say anything else I head out the door on a mission to apartment 20. I walk up the familiar stairs and find apartment 20. I push in my key and unlock the door. I slowly walk inside to find no one there. I go into Chandler's and my bedroom. I look on the nightstand and see a picture of him and another woman. I look around some more and find another picture of them together. My worst nightmare has come true. I run out of the apartment and slam the door. I get to Central Perk and run inside barely keeping back my tears. I fall on the couch in Rachel's arms.
"Oh no. You found out." She states. Joey rushes over to my side and pats my back. I sob into Rachel's shoulder.
"How long?" I ask.
"Two and a half months."
"That's practically how long I've been gone!" I sob.
"I know. He was really depressed Mon. All of us were. He needed to move on." She tells me.
"I'm so sorry I left you guys." I admit.
"We know." Joey comforts.
"Can I stay with you?"
"Of course." Joey replies.

Later that night.....
I climb into bed and cry myself to sleep. This is all my fault. That is the worst part.
