TO With Or Without You ( Part II)
Your reactions were huge and that's why I decided to hurry up and write the second part of this fanfic. Hope you'll like this one, too. At this place, I'd like to thank you for your comments...they really help me! This fic is a continuation of my first one, so you have to read the first part otherwise you won't understand.. :) Once again, excuse me for my english-faults and you have to know that it's really late in the evening, or no...wait..it's really early in the morning :)
This fanfic is just for fun and the characters are "owned" by their producers Bright, Kaufman and Crane and also WB and NBC...
It's now 2 weeks ago since Ross left ( he had to go to Vancouver for 2 months 'cause of work). Monica and Chandler are married and Phoebe is Phoebe and Joey is Joey.
Scene 1:
We're in a restaurant. You can hear music in the background
but you also hear many people talking. It's crowded and you can see people
eating, drinking or dancing. We focus on a table where a woman sits and
beside her a really cute guy (played by Luke Perry, you know Dylan from
Beverly Hills 90210). We can now see that the woman is Rachel.
Cute Guy: So, do you like it?
Rachel: Like what?....ohh, the restaurant. Yeah, it's really nice. (she doesn't look very happy)
Cute Guy: What would you like to drink?
Rachel doesn't pay attention
Cute Guy: Rachel? What would you like to drink?
Rachel: What? Ou sorry...Steve, would you excuse me for a sec? I'll be right back.
Steve: Sure. But if you say me what you'd like to drink I can order..
Rachel: Uhm yeah...I take what you take. (She stands
up and leaves)
Steve looks a bit confused and then orders a bottle of
wine.
~ A few minutes later, we see Rachel coming back from .....(we don't know :)) But she's a bit pale and she doesn't look that good~
Steve (worried): Hey, is everything allright?
Rachel: Yep, everything is fine. And I'm really hungry.
Steve: You better are!
Rachel: So what did you ordered?
Steve: You'll see but I'm sure you'll like it. ( he smiles at her)
Rachel: I hope so. (she smiles back)
A little later we can see Steve eating and Rachel just
sitting there and looking on her plate without eating anything.
Steve: Hey, what's with you? You don't like lobsters?
Rachel: I do, but alive and not cooked.
Steve: Did you know, that lobsters, when they're
old....(he tells her the whole lobster-story and we can see that Rachel
looks a bit uncomfortable now. We can't hear him but we see him talking
as we hear music in the background. As he finished the story, we can see
Rachel with a sad look.
Rachel: Wow, I didn't know that...
Scene fades out...
Scene 2:
The apartment of C & M. Phoebe is there with Monica,
who doesn't look that happy.
Phoebe: Monica, we both know Chandler. He needs time and by the way, you're now married and have all the time of your life!
Monica: I know, I know..but.....gosh, you didn't saw him. He acted like it would be the worst thing in his life.
Phoebe: Hey, you're happy together and you'll work things out, okay!
Monica: I hope so. ( a tear rolls down her cheek)
Phoebe: Hey you.. (hugs her) Your dream will come
true, you'll see. You're now a married woman, and this for now 2 weeks.
Monica just sobs
Phoebe: Someday you'll have beautiful children and you'll be the happiest woman on earth.
Monica: Sounds good..
Phoebe: I think you should talk to him about that. I mean...just go to him and say how much you love him and then tell him what you told me.
Monica: You're right. But not now.
Phoebe: It's up to you (smiles at her)
Monica: (smiles a bit) I will tomorrow. Now I have to go to bed.
Phoebe: Btw, where is Chandler?
Monica: Oh, he's with Joey.
Phoebe: Okay then, good night.
Monica: Bye and thank you. (Phoebe leaves and Monica
goes to the bathroom)
Scene fades out
Scene 3:
A bar, crowded and there's disco music. It's very loud
and everybody is dancing. In a corner we see Joey and Chandler drinking
a beer and talking.
Joey: I missed that!
Chandler: Yeah, me too. We have to do that more often.
Joey: But you're married now!
Chandler: So...(looks away)
Joey: Hey man...what's up? You don't look very happy.
Chandler: Oh..I am..I really am.
Joey laughs a bit
Joey: You're a bad actor! Worser than me!!!
Chandler: Thank you. (smiles a bit)
Joey: Now you have to tell me what's wrong.
Chandler: There's nothing...just...
Joey: Oh c'mon...tell me
Chandler: She wants to have a baby.
Joey: Yeah, but you knew that when you married her. She always wanted to have babies!
Chandler: Yeah...but now, I'm...(he can't find the word)
Joey: Scared?
Chandler: Right. I mean, what if I'm not a good father. She'll hate me, and.....
Joey: Man, you're soo. I don't know. Stupid? Look, you can't be a good father
Chandler: (confused and in shock) What? Well, thank you. That really helped me!
Joey: No, you didn't understand. You have to LEARN
how to be a good father, you know. That's a risk you have to take! Jump
into the cold water. And the most important thing is that you love your
child!
Chandler: God, I'm I really talking to Joey Tribbiani?
(they both laugh) Thanks man, you really helped me a lot. You know, I love
Monica a lot and I'd love to have babies with her but just not now. I think
I'm not ready now.
Joey: I absolutely understand but why are you
talking to me about this? You have to talk to Monica!
Chandler: I will...
Scene fades out.
Scene 4:
Back in the restaurant with Steve and Rachel. They've
finished eating and are now just sitting at the table.
Steve: Hey Rachel, what's wrong.
Rachel doesn't react.
Steve: Rachel?...hey Rachel?
Rachel: (Now "awake") Hmm? Ohh, sorry. What did you just say?
Steve: There's something wrong with you..
Rachel: ( a bit nervous) No nothing, really.
Steve: Hey, we're now on our third date and I really
like you. I like to spend my time with you but if you don't want to tell
me what's wrong, it won't work with us. (look deeply in her eyes)
Rachel: Oh gosh, I'm sorry, I really am. You're
really a nice guy.. (silence)
Steve: You know what? (Rachel looks now a bit uncomfortable)
I'll go to the music box, change the music and then we dance together.
Steve stands up and leaves before she can answer. He
goes to the music box and after a few seconds, he turns around and looks
sweetly at her. "Wicked Game" starts playing. Suddenly Rachel stands up
totally confused and runs toward the door. Steve catches her ..
Rachel: Sorry but I can't...just...Steve, it won't
work with us. You're really a great guy but there'll be no future.
Steve:(looks uncomfortable) But Rachel...(she opens
the door and leaves)
Steve just stands there alone while we hear the song...
The world was on fire
No one could save me but you.
Strange what desire will make foolish people do
I never dreamed that I'd meet somebody like you
And I never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you
No, I don't want to fall in love
[This love is only gonna break your heart]
No, I don't want to fall in love
[This love is only gonna break your heart]
With you
With you
What a wicked game you play
To make me feel this way
What a wicked thing to do
To let me dream of you
What a wicked thing to say
You never felt this way
What a wicked thing to do
To make me dream of you
v And I don't wanna fall in love
[This love is only gonna break your heart]
And I don't want to fall in love
[This love is only gonna break your heart]
{World} was on fire
No one could save me but you
Strange what desire will make foolish people do
I never dreamed that I'd love somebody like you
I never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you
No I don't wanna fall in love
[This love is only gonna break your heart
No I don't wanna fall in love
[This love is only gonna break your heart]
With you
With you
Nobody loves no one
During the song we see Rachel just walking in a park just thinking. Then she sits down on a bank and looking into the sky. There are so many stars and the moon shines as silver. Suddenly we see a shooting star and then we focus back and see Ross...He is on a balcony also looking into the sky. The camera zooms in the stars as the song and also the scene fades out.
Scene 5:
A week later at C&M's. Rachel is lying on the couch
watching TV as Chandler and Monica walks in both laughing.
Monica: Yeah, that was sooo cool.
Chandler: Oooouuuu yeas.
Monica : (sees Rachel) Hey sweetie, what's up?
Rachel: (turns her head and doesn't look that good) Are you talking to me?
Monica: You look horrible.
Rachel: Thanks (turns her head back)
Monica: Why are you at home at this time? Aren't you on a date with Steve? (Chandler leaves the room)
Rachel doesn't say a word. Monica walks to the couch and
sees a tear rolling down Rachels cheek.
Monica: Sweetie, now you have to tell me 'cause
I'm really worried about you (leans her head against Rachel's)
Rachel: (sobing) I don't know....I mean...I have no idea what's going on with me...I just feel sick every day and everything sucks!
Monica: (smiles) Maybe you're pregnant.
Rachel: (in shock) No, that can't be...
Monica: I know...
Rachel: (confused now) Why do you know?
Monica: Or did you sleept with Steve?
Rachel: Of course not!
Monica: See. And your last date was.....(thinking)...a long time ago
Rachel realises that Monica doesn't know about the night
with Ross at her wedding.
Rachel (now really nervous): Oh my god, that's
too much (runs to the toilett)
Monica: (confused) Did I miss anything?
Chandler enters and Monica stands up and goes to the
table.
Monica: Poor Rach..
Chandler: (not knowing why she's saying that) Uhm....why?
Rachel comes back from the toilett and looks sick.
Monica: Rach, you have to go to bed, maybe you're
sick! Food poisoning (note: don't know the word exactly)
Chandler: You should go to a doctor!
Rachel: (worried) Oh, I don't know....
Monica: Hey Rach, please go to a doctor. You have to know what's wrong with you.
Rachel: (a bit angry 'cause Monica's right) Yeah yeah yeah, fine...you're right. I'll go.
Scene 6:
We're in a big room and theres a table where a doctor
is sitting. We can hear him talking.
Doc: Okay here we go. You said that you feel sick
for about a week now, sooo ....here we go. I'm not totally sure but for
90% you...(phone rings. The Doctor talks about 1 minute and then hangs
up the phone.) Sorry, where was I ? Ou yeas. You've got the stomach-flu
(note: don't now the word, just imagine stomach-ache and you have to vomit
all the time) Just take those pills for a week and then hopefully you'll
feel better. Call me if you've got problems with them or they don't help.
We see the curtain opens and Ross comes out.
Ross: Thank you Doc.
Doc: No problem
Ross: Bye (he leaves)
An hour later we see Ross room in Vancouver. It's really huge and there's this big window from where you can see the whole city. Ross enters and throws his keys on a table. Then he goes to the bathroom. He then comes back, turns on the radio and then lays down on the couch. We can hear a voice saying something and then the song "With or without you" starts playing. Ross looks really sad as he stands up and walks to the window. He just looks outside...at the same time we can see R&J appartment. Rachel is laying on her bed also listening to the radio as "With or without you" starts playing. She stares at the window and a tear rolls down her cheek. Scene fades out..
Scene 7:
At C&M, the morning after. Rachel and Monica are
sitting at the table.
Monica: You didn't sleep very much, did you?
Rachel just nods
Monica: So, what did he say? ( takes her cup of
coffee and a piece of bread)
Rachel: (a bit nervous now) Who?
Monica: Rachel, the doctor. What did he say? (silence)
Monica has now a worried look on her face and Rachel softly
begins to cry.
Rachel: Oh god, Monica...(crys harder)
Monica: Oh my gosh, Rachel sweetie..(hugs her) What happend?
Rachel: I.....I.....it can't be...Mon...
Monica: Rachel tell me, what is with you? Are you sick, or ... tell me, what is it?
Rachel: Monica, you were right. (stands up and goes to the window still crying)
Monica: Right? What did I say? (silence, then she suddenly realises) Are you...
Rachel: Yes Mon, I'm pregnant.
Monica: (smiles a bit but is also confused) Really? You're pregnant?!
Rachel: Yeah...(calms down a bit)
Monica: But Rach, that's ...that's great!
Rachel: No it's not...I mean...yeah it is...but....gosh....why...
Monica:Rach, who's the father? I mean if it's not Steves, who is it? Is there anybody I don't know?
Rachel: (shocke) Noo, of course not!
Monica: Then who?
Rachel: Okay, now...I've got to tell you something...
