"I Saw Him Standing There"

Rachel had a hard time looking for Monicas new place. Moniacas dedication to her restaurant is legendary so Rachel expected to find her across the street from the contruction site. Lo and behold there was a hotel right across the street from the fire scene. Rachel thanked herself for remembering Monicas even more legendary predictablity before buzzing Monicas apartment.
"What?" Monica said into the speaker.
"It's me, Rachel." She said into the gross looking speaker.
"Come on up, apartment 2-B." Monica said letting her in Rachel quickly dodged the dead-looking drunk on the stairs on the way up to the apartment. How a disgraceful place to live could be across the street from such an elegant eatery puzzled Rachel. She was still thinking this over when Monica answered the door.
"Hi." Monica said.
"Hi!" Rachel said trying to sound cheerful. "We're going out tonight."
"Out?" Monica raised her eyebrows. "I'd rather stay here and hate men."
"Come on!" Rachel said. "You have been in such a funk since the wedding."
"Non Wedding!"
"And you should be happy since it found out that the fire was caused by faulty wiring and not you trying to get insurance money." Rachel said. She looked over at the closet. "You are coming with me missy." Rachel grabbed the dress she had given Monica as a gift after the wedding. "And I am gonna make you have fun even if I have to cram it down your throat. Now are you gonna put on this dress or will I have to do that too?"
Monica shriveled in fake fear. "Ok. But you better not do that that again, I have a big brother...."
"Ha ha, I'll be waiting." Rachel said as Monica put on the dress. "Are you ready?"
"Yes." Monica said.
"Then lets go!"

Chandler was so damned bored it wasnt even funny anymore. Not after a half hour anyway. He paced the room after Rachel had left. What was he gonna do with the whole night and no girlfriend to himself?
"Go to Joeys!" Chandler practically felt Rachel pushing him to the door. "Ok. I'll go to Joeys. But I wont like it."

Rachel and Monica bopped down the street to a club with some loud techno music coming from it.
"Lets go in here for a bit." Rachel said as they go closer.
"What?" Monica yelled.
"Go there." Rachel pointed and Monica followed like an obedient dog. "Monica." She whispered to her."Your boob is exposed."
"Thanks." Monica said adjusting her dress.
Monica and Rachel went into the club and started looking for a place to sit. Madonnas "Ray of light" came on the sound system and they decided to dance. As they went to the floor Rachel encountered some one who was familiar like. Rachel watches the woman turn around.
"It's Chloe!" Rachel said seeing the woman Ross had slept with. Rachel had once been to the copy store that Chloe had worked at so thats how she knew what she looked like. Without a word Rachel moved to her. Chloe stopped dancing long enough to look her in the eyes.
Rachel suddenly turned primal, and her movements started to look like what you would see when an animal attacks in a wildlife situation.
"You bitch." Rachel said her words coming out slowly and deliberately. She then made her hand into a fist, reached back and socked Chloe right in the nose. Chloes head snapped back noting that Rachel had achieved contact. Some blood spurted from her nose ring, her eyes rolled back into her head as she went down to the floor. Rachel huffed and puffed as she stood above her victorious. She didnt get to relish it long for Monica grabbed her hand and ran out of the club.

Chandler knocked on the door leading to Joeys swanky penthouse suite. He had a time getting by the front doorman. He had to produce ID and a referance. Joey promptly provided clearance for his old friend. Joey came to the door in shirt and underpants.
"Hey!" Joey said. "Long time no see!"
"Hey!" Chandler said. "The girls are out tonight so I thought I would see you."
"Thats so cool." Joey said. "I got baby sitting duty tonight though."
"But thats not ordinary baby sitting, these are your kids." Chandler pointed out.
"I know!" Joey said happy as could be. "Phoebe and I had a little talk. She decided that now that I know I'm a daddy I can help on the names for our little bundles of joy."
"Thats great. So sunset and sunrise are just nick names now?"
"Of course. Uncle Chandy meet Jamie and Jenny Buffay." Joey said pointing out the crib.
Chandlers eyebrows arched. "Uncle Chandy?" He thought. "I thought I would never see the day."

Monica brought Rachel into a phone booth.
"What the hell was that?"
"Well I punched Chloe, I knocked her lights out." Rachel said. "And you heard what that guy said, an inch to the left and her nosering would have been sent into her brain and killed her. I feel pretty good. This is closure." Rachel explained.
"Don't do to much more of this type of closure, we could get sent to jail, ok?" Monica said.
"Ok." Rachel grinned. "Frankly I didn't know I had it in me." She waved her fist around.
"Yeah," Monica said. "Don't point that in my direction."
"Sorry." Rachel looked around. "Let's get out of here. I'm starting to feel like Superwoman."
Rachel and Monica left the phone booth.
"I know a great coffee place." Monica said as they walked away. "And its got karaoke!"
"Why don't we go home now." Rachel said.
"Oh come on." Monica said. "This way."
Rachel groaned and let her be led in the direction of the great karaoke bar. She stopped for a second.
"What?" Monica asked.
"Thought I saw someone." Rachel said. "Never mind, lets go."

Chandler watched Joey fold laundry, cook dinner and now he was feeding the newly crowned Jamie and Jenny twins. The kids were so like their father it wasnt funny. They spat up everything they were given, which mostly ended up on the floor. Chandler could not take no more. He expected to have fun at the place of his bud. But was that at all possible now that he has kids to think of? Chandler sighed and looked at the clock. He had spent two hours there yet it felt like days. Chandler made a decision.
He had to get out of there, if it was the last thing he would do. But he didn't want to hurt Joeys feelings.
"I gotta get some air." Chandler said.
"Oh ok." Joey said. "I may be in bed when you get back."
"Uh ok." Chandler said closing the door.

Monica and Rachel found a seat at the karaoke club. They sat and waited for their order while a short fat man murdered the song "Rhinestone cowboy."
"This is a nice place." Monica said sipping her tea.
The man finally finished his song and left the stage. A good looking man who appeared to the be host of the club took the mike.
"That was Reggie, give a hand you all." The man said. "My name is Eric and tonight its volunteer singer night at the Karoke Kupp the finest coffee slash karaoke joint in town." Eric cupped the mike in his hand. "Let me explain the rules. I will volunteer any audience member at any time to sing a song of my choice. It's a good thing it only happens once a week or my head would be on a stick." Eric scanned the crowd. "Our next singer is that woman right there."
Eric pointed at Monica.
"Me?" Monica asked.
"Yes." Eric nodded. "Come on up."
Monica looked at Rachel who urged her to go on up. Monica looked back at her as she got onto the stage.
"Youre a lovely looking young lady." Eric said as he looked her over. "Whats your name."
"Monica."
"Well then, you look like a new comer. No matter, the words are on the screen over there. In fact tonight I will sing a duet with our lovely Miss Monica." The audience clapped. "In fact our song will be none other than the Sonny and Cher classic I got you babe."
Eric started the music. Monica looked over at the screen reluctantly and got ready to sing.
"They say we're young and we don't know.
We won't find out until we grow." Monica sang.
Eric looked at his line. "Well I don't know if all that's true 'Cause you got me, and baby I got you.
Babe." Eric whispered, "We both sing this."
Monica and Eric tried to sing the chorus "I got you babe I got you babe" and did somewhat good at it.
In fact Monica was just loosening up when the song ended. Both Monica and Eric recieved a wild round of applause....from Rachel. Everyone else had left. Eric shut down the karaoke machine and waved as he left.
"Let's go home before he decides to sing And the beat goes on." Monica said. She turned to leave when she saw an oh so familiar looking man at the bar with a blonde. "Oh my god." Monica said.
"What?" Rachel looked at the same person Monica was at. "It's him!"
"Okay, you're not gonna punch him too are you?" Monica asked while still both looking at the man at the bar. "Whats he doing here?"
