TOW ALL THE CHAOS!

BY CREASSYA
 
 
 

This takes place after TOW All The Sneaking Around. Joey and Phoebe know about Chandler and Monica and they're playing with Chandler and Monica to see if they'll come clean with their secret relationship.

SCENE: (Central Perk)

(The gang is there talking, but Chandler is thinking about what's going on with Monica and her date. He instantly regretted letting her go out with Steven the moment he saw him. He knew that Monica loved him, but he was feeling really insecure. Two hours had passed and he couldn't stand it anymore)

JOEY: Chandler, why do keep tapping your leg?
CHANDLER: Oh. I don't know.
PHOEBE: Are you nervous Chandler?
CHANDLER: Nervous? For what?
PHOEBE: That's what we wanna know?
JOEY: (Smiles at Chandler) Are you thinking about that girlfriend of yours?
CHANDLER: (Glares at Joey) No!

(Rachel looks over at Chandler and goes over to the counter. Chandler then walks over to the counter to talk to Rachel)

RACHEL: (Whispers) Chandler you have to remain in control. They see what this is doing to you and they're getting a kick out of it.
CHANDLER: I know. I just can't help it. I can't believe I let my girlfriend go out on a date with someone.
RACHEL: Yeah, someone who looks like a model.
CHANDLER: What am I doing? I mean, they know, so why are we doing this?
RACHEL: I was asking myself the same thing.

SCENE: (Movie Theater: Outside)

(Monica and Steven are coming out of the the Theater. All through dinner Monica kept thinking about Chandler. She didn't even know what the movie was about just now. She was beginning to think that her going out with Steven was silly. It was obvious that Joey and Phoebe wanted to make them crazy. She didn't want to ruin what her and Chandler have just to beat Phoebe and Joey. She was tempted to call Chandler the minute they sat down to eat dinner. She thought that Steven was extremely attractive, but he wasn't Chandler. He wasn't her sweetie, the love of her life, her future husband)

STEVEN: Monica? Monica?
MONICA: Oh, huh?
STEVEN: Are you okay?
MONICA: Yeah, I'm fine. Why?
STEVEN: Well, I was talking to you and you were ignoring me.
MONICA: Oh, I'm sorry Steven. I've been a horrible date haven't I?
STEVEN: Well...
MONICA: Okay...I have to be honest with you. I have a boyfriend.
STEVEN: A boyfriend? Then why are you here with me?
MONICA: It's kinda stupid.
STEVEN: I'm listening.
MONICA: Well, my friend Phoebe set me up with you so that I could come clean with my secret relationship.
STEVEN: Why are you keeping your relationship a secret from your friends?
MONICA: Well, because I'm in love with one of my bestfriends, and we're both so bad at relationships. We just don't want to ruin it. It's been going pretty good so far. Plus he's my brother's bestfriend.
STEVEN: Ohhhh!
MONICA: I had a good time though.
STEVEN: (Laughs) Yeah right.
MONICA: I'm sorry.
STEVEN: It's okay. You wanna go home now?
MONICA: Yeah.
STEVEN: Okay, let's go.

SCENE: (Monica and Rachel's)

(Phoebe, Joey, Rachel, and Chandler are there. Chandler was getting a little angry. Not because it was 12:00 in the morning and Monica wasn't home yet, but he was getting angry with Phoebe and Joey for still being there. He didn't want them to see his reaction when she comes in and talks about how her date went. He was getting a little tired of sneaking around. One part of him liked it. He liked having Monica all to himself, without the others butting in like they did with Ross and Rachel when the were going out. But the other part of him wanted it out in the open)

JOEY: Hey Chandler, you've been acting kinda strange all night. What's wrong?
PHOEBE: (Smiles at Joey) Yeah Chandler. Are you worried about Monica?
CHANDLER: Why should I be worried about her?
PHOEBE: Duh. The two of you are so close. You guys always get like this.
CHANDLER: Like what?
JOEY: C'mon Chandler. You and Monica are so over protective of each other.
CHANDLER: No we're not!
PHOEBE: Oh please! Don't you know that she threatened every girl you went out with?
CHANDLER: What? Yeah right.
PHOEBE: No seriously. She would tell them that you were like a brother to her and that if they hurt you, they would have to answer to her. It wasn't like she was gonna be them up or anything. It wasn't like that. She was just always looking out for you.
JOEY: Yeah, you hated all the guys she went out with.
CHANDLER: No I didn't.
JOEY: So you don't remember telling me that?
CHANDLER: Well...that's after they hurt her.

(Phoebe and Joey look at each other. They were trying to make him crack. They sensed that Chandler was uneasy about letting Monica go out with Steven and they were using it to their advantage. Chandler looked like he was getting even more annoyed, so he left and went to his apartment)

SCENE: (Chandler and Joey's)

(Chandler approaches his bedroom and notices that the door is closed. That's strange, I never close my door unless I'm in my room, he thought. He slowly walks in and smiles. Monica was in his bed with his night shirt on waiting for him. He closes the door and goes over to the bed and kisses her. He kissed her as if he hadn't seen her in years)

MONICA: (Reluctantly breaks the kiss) Whoa! What was that for?
CHANDLER: I missed you.
MONICA: (Smiles) Really? I missed you too.
CHANDLER: How long have you been here?
MONICA: An hour. I knew everybody would be at my place, so I figured I'd come over here and wait for you. I thought about you the whole time. I told him about you too.
CHANDLER: You did?
MONICA: Yeah. Why are you so surprised?
CHANDLER: I don't know.
MONICA: Chandler, he is gorgeous, but he's not you.
CHANDLER: (Smiles and touches her face) I love you Monica.
MONICA: I love you too. Let's not do this again.
CHANDLER: I was thinking the same thing.
MONICA: Are Phoebe and Joey still over at my place?
CHANDLER: Yeah.
MONICA: Good.

(Monica pulls Chandler down on top of her and they start kissing. It felt as if she and Chandler have been apart for ages)

SCENE: (Monica and Rachel's)

(Phoebe and Joey are still waiting for Monica to come home)

RACHEL: Guys, aren't you tired yet? It's 2 in the morning.
PHOEBE: Well, I just wanna see how Monica's date went.
JOEY: Yeah, me too.
RACHEL: What's the big deal? It's not like it's her first date, or that we're her parents!
PHOEBE: Well, I'm a little worried. She should be home by now.
RACHEL: Guys, what's going on?
JOEY: Nothing. Can't we be concerned for a friend?
RACHEL: Yeah, at home!
PHOEBE: (Gets up and heads for the door) I can't believe she's kicking us out.
JOEY: (Heads for the door also) Yeah, some friends she is.

SCENE: (Monica and Rachel's: The next morning)

(Ross, and Phoebe are there when Monica enters)

ROSS: Hey Mon.
PHOEBE: Are you just coming in from your date?
MONICA: (Smiles) Yeah, why?
PHOEBE: (Looks shocked) Well...I...
MONICA: What's the big deal? It's not the first time I've spent the night out.
PHOEBE: I know, but...

(Phoebe's voice trails off as Joey enters the apartment)

JOEY: Hey Mon. How was the date?
MONICA: It was fine.
PHOEBE: It was better than fine. She just got home.
JOEY: What? You spent the night with him.
MONICA: Yeah. Why is that so hard to believe?
JOEY: Well because you're...(Stops when he looks at Ross)
ROSS: What's with you guys?
MONICA: (Smiles to herself) Yeah, what's with you guys?

(Monica goes into her room, leaving Joey and Phoebe completely shocked. They couldn't believe she did that to Chandler)

SCENE: (Central Park)

(Chandler and Monica are walking through the park holding hands and laughing)

CHANDLER: So they actually bought it?
MONICA: Oh yeah!
CHANDLER: Wow. They're probably freaking out right now.
MONICA: (Laughing) I know. I wish you were there this morning. You should have seen their faces.
CHANDLER: So how long should we keep this up?
MONICA: I don't know. They had their fun, now we get to have ours.
CHANDLER: (Smiles) I like that.

(Chandler and Monica decided to have fun with Phoebe and Joey. They knew it was time to come clean with their relationship, but they felt that they should give Phoebe and Joey a dose of their own medicine first. They decided to pretend that Monica is starting to go out on dates, and that Chandler is depressed and doesn't want to be bothered with anyone)

SCENE: (Central Perk: A couple days later)

(They whole gang is there. Phoebe and Joey are over by the counter whispering about something, and Chandler and Monica look at each smiling)

MONICA: (Gets up) Well, I'll see you guys later. I have a date.
PHOEBE/JOEY: What?
MONICA: I have a date.
ROSS: With whom?
MONICA: Oh, this new guy from work.
CHANDLER: (Pretends to look sad) Oh.
RACHEL: (Goes along with him) What's wrong Chandler?
CHANDLER: It's nothing. I'm fine.
RACHEL: No you're not. You've been moping around for the last couple of days.
CHANDLER: I broke up with my girlfriend.
RACHEL: Oh. I'm sorry to hear that. You seemed really happy.
CHANDLER: (Puts his head down) I don't wanna talk about it.
MONICA: Well, I have to go.

(Monica leaves. Phoebe and Joey looked shocked. They felt bad for playing with Chandler and Monica. It was just to get them to confess, not to break them up)

JOEY: Chandler I'm so sorry.
CHANDLER: It's okay. It's not your fault.(Gets up) I just need to be by myself right now.

(Chandler leaves and Rachel smiles to herself. She knew what the whole plan was. The plan was for Joey and Phoebe to think that they caused the breakup. Chandler and Monica wanted them to feel responsible. Whenever she would say that she's going out on a date, she'll go somewhere to wait for Chandler and they would go out)

SCENE: (Fancy Restaurant)

(Chandler and Monica are there. They were just finishing their dinner and was about to order desert, when they saw Ross and some woman being seated at another table across the room)

CHANDLER: (Notices Ross) Mon, I don't think we should order desert.
MONICA: Why? You don't have enough money with you?
CHANDLER: That's not it.
MONICA: Than what is it? (She follows Chandler's gaze, and sees Ross)
CHANDLER: (Sees the expression on Monica's face) Uh-huh...
MONICA: Oh My God! What are we gonna do?
CHANDLER: Leaving would be a good idea.
MONICA: No, I mean, how are we gonna leave without him seeing us. The table he's sitting at is near the entrance.
CHANDLER: Ummmmmm....okay, you go to the bathroom. I'll pay for dinner, and go over and speak to him. While I'm talking to him, you sneak out.
MONICA: Okay, sounds good.

(Monica gets up and goes to the bathroom. Chandler waits for the check and pays for their dinner. He notices Monica peeking out the bathroom door so he goes over to Ross and his date)

ROSS: Hey Chandler.
CHANDLER: Hi.
ROSS: (Looks over at his date) Chandler, this is Faye, Faye this is my bestfriend Chandler.
FAYE: Hi Chandler, nice to meet you.
CHANDLER: You too.
ROSS: So, where's your date?
CHANDLER: Oh, she's uh.... she's waiting for me outside. I told her to pull the car around while I pay the check.
ROSS: (Notices someone walking out the door) Hey, she kinda looks like Mon.
CHANDLER: (Playing dumb) Who?
ROSS: The woman that just left.
CHANDLER: I'm sure it wasn't though.
ROSS: Yeah, probably not.
CHANDLER: Well, I'll leave you two to your dinner.

(Chandler casually walks out the door. He wanted to run)

SCENE: (Central Perk: The next day)

(Phoebe, Joey, and Ross are there. Ross told them that he saw Chandler yesterday when he and his date went to dinner. He didn't mention that the woman he saw looked like Monica. He only saw the back of her. Rachel walks in and sits down. She wasn't sure how long Chandler and Monica would keep up this act, but she wanted to be in on it as long as possible. Not only was it fun for Chandler and Monica, but she was having fun too)

RACHEL: Hey guys, what's going on?
ROSS: Nothing, why?
RACHEL: Well, Monica is kinda depressed right now, and I wanna do something for her. She hasn't been out of her room all day.
ROSS: What wrong with her?
RACHEL: She said that she's tired of not being able to stay in a relationship. She said she feels like a loser. I want to take her somewhere to cheer her up or something. Any ideas?
ROSS: Well, maybe we should all spend time with her.
RACHEL: And?
ROSS: I don't know. That's all I could come up with.
RACHEL: Phoebe, Joey, what do you think?
JOEY: Uh...well....I don't know either.
PHOEBE: Well...maybe I could talk to her.
ROSS: How is that going to help?
PHOEBE: It'll help!

SCENE: (Monica and Rachel's)

(Chandler and Monica are in her room sitting on the bed. Monica is sitting with her back against the bed post and Chandler is leaning back against her while she's running her fingers through his hair)

CHANDLER: This feels good.
MONICA: I know.
CHANDLER: (Smiles) What do you think Ross will do when he finds out about us?
MONICA: I don't know.
CHANDLER: You think he'll kill me?
MONICA: No! You guys are bestfriends.
CHANDLER: That's exactly why he'll kill me.
MONICA: I'll protect you sweetie.
CHANDLER: Yeah, you are freakishly strong. (He smiles and turns his head to kiss her)
MONICA: That's right. I won't let him hurt you.

(She hugs him really tight, then continues to play in his hair)

SCENE: (Chandler and Joey's)

(Joey and Phoebe are trying to figure out a way to get Chandler and Monica back together. They felt really guilty for breaking them up)

PHOEBE: Man, I still can't believe she spent the night with Steven. I thought you said you over heard them saying I love you.
JOEY: I did!
PHOEBE: Well how could this happen?
JOEY: Well Pheebs, it all started when we decided to mess with them. We should have just waited for them to tell us they were going out.
PHOEBE: You were the one who said we should play along.
JOEY: Well you didn't have to listen!
PHOEBE: Look, this isn't doing us any good. We have to find a way to get them back together.
JOEY: And how do you suppose we do that? Without them knowing we had something to do with the breakup?
PHOEBE: (Pacing across the floor) I'm thinking.
JOEY: Well come on Phoebe, I'm getting old over here.
PHOEBE: (Glares at him) You could help too y'know. It was your idea in the first place!
JOEY: Okay. But you're not gonna like this.
PHOEBE: What is it?
JOEY: I think we should tell them.
PHOEBE: What?
JOEY: What other choice do we have?
PHOEBE: You're right. They're gonna hate us for this.
JOEY: I know, but we owe it to them.

SCENE: (Central Park)

(Chandler and Monica are sitting in the park feeding each other strawberries. They were having a romantic picnic. They had a blanket, a picnic basket, and strawberries. Ross couldn't believe his eyes. He was walking with Faye when he saw the two of them sitting on the blanket together. When they stopped feeding each other, Chandler leaned in and kissed Monica. Ross wanted to go over and say something, but he was with Faye, and he didn't want to make a scene. Faye was talking to him, but he didn't hear a word she was saying. He was pretending that he was interested in the conversation, and would sneak at peak at Chandler and Monica. When he looked back over in their direction, he saw Monica caressing his face. He took Monica's hand and kissed it. At first, the site of them together angered Ross, but the more he watched them, the less angry he became)

SCENE: (Chandler and Joey's)

(Joey and Phoebe are sitting in the chairs watching TV when Ross enters)

ROSS: You guys, I have something to tell you.

(Phoebe and Joey turn around to see what boring news Ross had to tell them)

JOEY: You're not getting married again are you?
ROSS: (Glares at Joey) No. It's not about me. It's about Chandler and Monica.
PHOEBE: (Looks at Joey) What?
ROSS: Yeah. I just saw them in the park together. They were kissing and feeding each other strawberries.
JOEY: You mean they got back together?! Ooops! (Covers his mouth)
ROSS: What? Got back together? You two knew about this?
PHOEBE/JOEY: (Looking down at the floor) Yeah.
ROSS: Why didn't you tell me?
PHOEBE: I don't know. They don't even know we know.
ROSS: They don't? Why?
JOEY: Because they've been keeping it a secret, and they didn't want anybody to know about it.
ROSS: But what about all those dates she's been going on? And the night she spent with Steven.
PHOEBE: I set that up thinking that they would confess. I didn't know she would sleep with him.
JOEY: Yeah, that's why they broke up. (Starts thinking) Wait a minute. How could Chandler forgive her that fast?
PHOEBE: Yeah, you're right. Monica's never done anything like that before. She's not the cheating type.
JOEY: Yeah.
PHOEBE: Oh My God! They know we know!
JOEY: I can't believe it. They made us feel so bad for breaking them up.
ROSS: So you were messing with them?
JOEY: Yeah, we wanted them to tell us they were going out.
PHOEBE: We are SO gonna get them for this.
ROSS: What are you gonna do?

(Joey and Phoebe look at each other and smile. They suddenly knew how they would get even with Chandler and Monica)

SCENE: (Monica and Rachel's)

(The gang went to the movies, all except Chandler and Monica. They come out of Monica's room kissing. Suddenly Ross walks in and catches them)

ROSS: What the hell is this?!

(Chandler and Monica break apart)

CHANDLER: Ross!
ROSS: What the hell is this? No wonder the two of you didn't want to come with us.
MONICA: Ross, please don't freak out.
CHANDLER: Too late.

(Joey, Phoebe, and Rachel enter)

RACHEL: What's going on here?
ROSS: Chandler is screwing around with my sister.
MONICA: No, it's not like that.
ROSS: Well explain it to me!
CHANDLER: We love each other Ross.

(Ross looks really angry and tries to go for Chandler, but Joey grabs him and Chandler hides behind Monica)

RACHEL: Ross, calm down!
ROSS: Why should I? This is my bestfriend and my little sister. No, I'll rephrase that. My little sister, and ex-bestfriend.
CHANDLER: Ross please....
ROSS: I don't wanna hear it. Let me go Joey. I'm leaving.

(Joey lets go of Ross, and he runs over to Chandler, but Chandler runs in Monica's room and shuts the door)

MONICA: Ross, I can't believe you're acting like this!
ROSS: That's okay Chandler, you have to come out sometime.

(Ross comes from Monica's bedroom door and leaves. Monica and Rachel flinch when he slammed the door)

CHANDLER: (Peaks out the door) Is he gone?
MONICA: He's gone.

(When Chandler comes out of the room, Ross slowly walks back in. Chandler looks terrified. Ross goes over and stands by Phoebe and Joey. The three of them look at each other, and burst into laughter. Chandler, Monica, and Rachel looked confused)

RACHEL: Could somebody tell us what's going on here?
PHOEBE/JOEY/ROSS: GOTCHA!
CHANDLER: What?
ROSS: We knew you two were going out.
MONICA: Oh my God! This was all a joke.
RACHEL: (Laughing) I can't believe you guys.
JOEY: Rach, you knew?
RACHEL: Yeah. I was in on it.
PHOEBE: So you knew before we did?
MONICA: Yeah, she's the first person I told.
CHANDLER: You guys really had me fooled.
PHOEBE: Yeah, you had us fooled too. We though you guys broke up.
MONICA: That was the whole idea. Whenever I said I was going on a date, I would go somewhere and wait for Chandler, and we would go out.
ROSS: Yeah, like the time I saw you at dinner. I had a feeling that was you Mon.
JOEY: Man that was fun.
PHOEBE: (Smiles) Yeah. Chandler that look on your face was priceless. You thought Ross was gonna kill you.
CHANDLER: (Smiles) I'm just glad he didn't. (Looks at Monica) I thought you were going to protect me.
MONICA: (Smiles) Sweetie, you ran in my room and locked the door. You had plenty of protection.
CHANDLER: (He leans in and kisses her) I know.
MONICA: (Looks at Phoebe, Joey, and Ross) You happy now? You beat us.
JOEY: Yeah we did!
PHOEBE: That was really clever, making us think you two broke up.
CHANDLER/MONICA: We know.

(Chandler and Monica kiss. The rest of the gang looks at them smiling)

SCENE: (Monica and Rachel's: Later that night)

(Chandler and Monica are in her room in bed)

MONICA: What a day.
CHANDLER: I know. But it feels good to have our relationship out in the open.
MONICA: I still can't believe they beat us.
CHANDLER: I'm just glad Ross didn't beat me up.
MONICA: (Laughs) Me too sweetie.
 
 
 

THAT'S ALL!
