chapter fifty two ~ the one with a bang Heather's POV
Things had been quiet for the past few weeks as we all settled back into our normal routines. Ross and Rachel were still dating and were enjoying spending time together which we were all super happy about; everyone had been waiting for them to get together and now that they were, we were all very happy for them. Monica was trying to work out what she wanted to do with her time now that she was no longer dating anyone and had tried several different options, but none of them were really working out yet. Chandler was still dating Janice, despite everyone, especially Joey being against the relationship and Phoebe had been having trouble with a tooth so we had convinced her to take a trip to the dentist. My relationship with Nick was going alright and I was currently working towards my Real Estate exam which I would hopefully pass, because once I pass it, then I can look for a permanent job somewhere.
The money that I had been saving was slowly running out and I would need to find a job soon otherwise I would be stuck financially; Chandler always offered to help me pay for things but I didn't want to keep relying on my brother for everything. I had found my own apartment and moved out because I wanted to be more independent and that was what I was going to do. However, when I wasn't studying for the upcoming exam, I was spending time with my friends and the best time to do that was when they were babysitting Ben. I hadn't seen him for a while because Carol and Susan hadn't needed a babysitter recently and I had missed him, so I was more than happy to pop over to Monica and Rachel's apartment when they called to say that Ross had brought him over.
As I enter the apartment, Joey is stood by the window watching Fat Ugly Naked Guy, who always seemed to be doing something more interesting than we could have ever imagined; maybe it was the fact that he was doing normal day-to-day activities but doing them naked, which sparked our attention. Rachel and Monica were on the couch, playing with Ben who didn't seem to be that excited about whatever was going on at that moment. He seemed bored but I didn't blame him, Monica somehow managed to suck the fun out of our games by making sure that they're completely safe; which just means that they aren't fun. Ross popped into the bedroom to answer his phone as I came in and made a fuss of Ben.
"Well, I'm going to the Dentist, so listen, okay? Just be on the lookout for anything that you could fall into or that can fall on you or...just look out! Also, I just want to tell you all that, uh..." She doesn't finish her sentence because Phoebe starts crying before leaving the apartment; convinced that if she goes to the dentist then someone will die.
"Okay, I have a problem. I have to go into work for a few hours." Ross groaned as he came back into the lounge. "Some kids messed up the Homo-Sapiens display."
Joey took a seat at the table. "What did they do?"
"Well they painted over the word 'Sapiens' for one thing. Then they rearranged the figures. Let's just leave it at that."
