Chapter 1 The Pilot

The Day begins like any other with 5 friends; Monica, Ryan, Joey, Chandler, and Phoebe, sitting in their local coffee house Central Perk, discussing Monica's date for the evening.

Monica Ryan's older sister, Phoebe Monica's former roommate, Joey Chandler's roommate, and vice versa, And me Ryan, Monica's younger brother, around 21.

"There's nothing to tell. It's just some guy I work with." Said Monica.

"Come on, Sis. You're going out with a guy, there must be something weird about him" said I look at her while taking a sip from the coffee.

"Yeah, your brother said it, there's gotta be something wrong with that guy." Said Joey.

"So, does he have a hump or a hump and a hairpiece?" Said Chandler.

"Oh, sis. Was he that weird guy, who came to the restaurant that time, with no front teeth, trying to flirt with you but ended up spitting on your face," said I.

"Wait, does he eat chalk?" Said phoebe, Getting a weird and questionable reaction out of my sister.

"Because I don't want her to go through what I went through with carl, Oh Tsk." Said again Phoebe, clarifying her question.

"Okay. Everybody relax. This is not even a date and mostly not with that weird guy, hear me, Ryan. It's just two people going out to dinner and not having S3x." Replied Monica to all our weird questions.

"Sounds like a date to me." Said Chandler.

"Yeah, Sounds boring one at that," I said adding up with Chandler then we fist bumped.

After finally, making fun of my sister, Chandler told us his weird high school story.

Soon Mine and Monica's older brother Ross soon arrives at the coffeehouse, looking miserable.

"...Hi." Said our brother while looking sad.

"This guy says "Hello" I wanna kill myself." Said Joey.

"Bro, you, Ok? That Hi, didn't sound good" I said looking at my older brother.

"Yeah, Are you Okay, Sweetie?" Said Monica while shaking him a little.

"I just feel like someone grabbed my small intestine, pulled it out of my mouth... and Tied it around my neck." Said Ross while moving around to sit on the sofa.

"Cookie?" Chandler offered to ross.

It is revealed that his ex-wife, Carol, has moved her things out of their apartment, due to the fact that she is a lesbian and no longer has feelings for Ross.

"Then ross, can I move in with you? I don't want to keep living in with Monica," I asked ross.

"Hey!" Monica turns back to look at me.

"It's not like I don't like you, it's that, it is hard bringing girls toward my sister's house, and now ross has a room vacant, and you know what I mean?" I replied.

"Guess you can and Having company would be good." Said ross.

"Thanks, bro, love ya, Ugh, this coffee is too bland, I need sugar in it, Sis could you bring some sugar," I said.

"She already moved out, anyway, I Hope she'll be very happy." Said Ross.

"No, you don't," said Monica to ross while bringing me some sugar for the coffee.

"No, I don't. to hell with her. She left me!" said ross back.

"And you never knew she was a lesbian," Said joey to ross and it stretched on until chandler said, "I wish I was a lesbian" then it went back to ross.

Joey unhelpfully suggests that Ross should take advantage of the fact that he is now single, and an exasperated Ross cries out, "I don't want to be single, okay? I just want to be married again!"

As soon as Ross says this, a woman enters the coffee house wearing a wedding dress, causing Chandler to remark on the coincidence of it, saying "And I just want a million dollars!"

It turns out she is non-other than Rachel Greene, who was Monica's best friend in high school and the object of ross's interest.

After Monica introduce us to her and vice versa. At least she remembers me but hopes she doesn't remember me when I was 19 and on my birthday. She was drunk and tried to kiss me in front of her that time ex-boyfriend to make him jealous.

Who has arrived to ask Monica for help, as she has just left her fiancé at the altar after realizing that she does not love him?

Rachel explains why she ran out on her wedding. Apparently, she is more turned on by the Gravy boat at her wedding than her ex-fiance. And her fiancé looks like a Mr. potato head. (Reference on Toy Story).

Soon we all went towards Monica's apartment, As we watch a Spanish soap opera and pretends to translate the lines.

Rachel talks on the phone with her father, trying to explain why she ran away, declaring that she does not love her fiancé, Barry. She also tells him that she will stay with Monica.

Ross asks us mostly me, joey, and chandler to help him set up his new furniture, and he asks Rachel if she would like to join them, but she wants to stay by herself. While joey tried to flirt with her, but Monica shoos him away.

While she spends the night alone in Monica's apartment, Phoebe busks in the subway and Monica goes on her date with Paul, the wine guy.

Meanwhile, the guys attempt to construct Ross' new furniture. I Bought my items to move in with him.

The apartment is practically empty, as Carol has taken all the furniture, the stereo, and the good TV. But the guest room is still intact with a bed, table, and all. So, I unloaded my stuff in the guest room. And soon came out to help the guy who still haven't figured out to construct even one piece of furniture.

Ross confides in his friends about his sadness at being divorced at 26.

"Hey, bro, let me ask you. She got the furniture, the stereo, and the good tv. What did you get?" I asked my brother after finally looking at his nearly empty room.

"You guys." Ross instantly replied.

"Oh, God." "Oh, my God." "You got Screwed" Me and other guys said that the same thing to ross.

To comfort him, Joey advises him to get a grip on his life and go out with other women to get over Carol.

"Not bad advice but we are talking about ross, My brother, here. I am still wondering how he got carol". I spoke.

"Oh, ya. How did you get her? Anyway" Chandler chimes in.

"Come on guys, I am sad here," Said Ross.

"Ok, Sorry Bro" "Sorry, Dude"

Again, Joey reminds Ross that there are many different women in the world, just like there are many different flavors of ice cream in the world, and encourages him to metaphorically "grab a spoon."

"Yeah, bro, Graph that spoon. Grab it" I added to Joey 'Good' Advice.

We talked more over on the topic with a beer in hand, giving my brother more motivation and consoling but mostly drinking beer, as I was 21, 7 months ago, so I am legal enough to drink beer.

While talking with Ross, who walked around and sat near the window, asks us, "Even if I could get it together enough to ask a woman out...who am I gonna ask?" He gazes out of the window.

"Don't worry, Big Bro, you gonna meet someone special or who knows you already have? Right, Guys" I said.

"Yes" "Absolutely," Chandler and Joey said to Ross.

"Ya, maybe," said Ross, while still looking out of the window.

"Well guys, Ugh, Me and Joey have a date with Twins tonight, so don't miss us, let's go, Joey," I said while beckoning Joey to hurry up.

"Oh, ya, what was their name? Jam, crack, or something?" Said Joey.

"Ugh, gosh, Joey, it's Jamie and Emmie, don't forget it. Ok, let's go. Bye guys." I said to joey. And others.

"Ok, Coming," said Joey and we walked downstairs.

"Hope this date ends well"

"Sure, DO buddy, Sure Do"

After I and Joey leave to go out on a date with a twin's hot lady from whose name he has trouble remembering even after I told him Bazillion times on the way, I really hope it ends well.

'Spoiler Alert, it went well, He-he,' Joey used his looks and fact being him an actor, struggling but still an actor, and me of my handsomeness and charming talk.

The next morning, Rachel is determined to turn over a new leaf and makes coffee for the first time in her life. 'For the First time' Unfortunately or expectedly, it tastes 'disgusting'. Emphasis on the disgusting, it was horrible. It took the joy out of the morning hot sex with that girl, Gosh Now I am starting to forget their name.

Well after throwing that coffee on the small plant soil over the table, We, I mean Rachel, Chandler, Me, and Joey saw Paul and Monica coming from their bedroom and Paul leaving, while we try to overhear Monica making plans to see Paul again and kissing him goodbye at the door.

"Ugh, Well I did not need to see that, that's why I moved to Ross, there, I won't have to see this," said I after moving my eyes and drinking some water to take out this horrible aftertaste of the coffee that Rachel made.

"That wasn't a real date. What the hell do you do on a real date?"

"Shut up," said Monica to all. And walk toward the kitchen to get some breakfast.

"Monica, could you give me some sugar cubes?" I whispered to Monica.

"Ok wait, there you go but why are you whispering?"

Taking a sugar cube in my mouth.

"Uhm, it's better now. Hum, Well ask Rachel to make you one coffee, you would know."

"Oh, ok" she seems to have figured it out.

"All right, Kids, I gotta get to work. If I don't input those numbers. It doesn't make much of a difference." Said Chandler while wearing his coat.

"So, like, you guys all have jobs?" Rachel Asked.

*Nods* Chandler "Ya" "Yeah, we all have Jobs. See, that's how we buy stuff." "Ya, I'm an actor." We all said toward Rachel.

"Wow, Would I have seen you in anything?" Rachel asked toward Joey.

"Oh, I doubt it. Mostly regional work." Joey said.

"Unless you happened to catch the wee one's production of Pinocchio," Monica said while sitting on a chair, before she was standing to get herself breakfast.

"Oh, ya, that Pinocchio, I nearly had forgotten about it, It was funny, He-he," I said while smiling.

"Look, Geppelo. I'm a real live Boy" Chandler said while mimicking joey's dialogue.

Soon Chandler and Joey went out.

"And Ryan, you to have a job?"

"Yep, the only reason I came here,"

"So, what do you do?"

"I'm basically the IT guy at the firm"

"He's just saying that he is the youngest IT department head and he doesn't even have to get to work, only once a week, most of the time he just needs a laptop and internet and another thing his employee handles the rest. My baby brother is a genius." Said Monica and ruffled my hair.

"Hey, I am not small anymore, Anyway, I need to do my job, so I am going, bye sis, bye Rachel" saying I walked out of the Apartment and went to ross.

Soon Monica also goes to work.

Monica then realizes that Paul lied to her to get her into bed when her colleague tells her the truth.

In the evening.

After everyone came back from their job to hang around at that same coffee café. Monica tells us that Paul had used her.

"That, son of a Bitch! Tell me if you want me to break his bone, you know I have a black belt in Taekwondo, right?" I said to Monica after hugging her.

"But why? Why would anybody do something like that?" Monica asked.

"I assume, we're looking for an answer more sophisticated than; togetyouintobed" Said Ross.

"Is it me? Is it like I have some sort of beacon that only dogs…and men with several emotional problems can hear?" asked Monica.

"Na, Monica, you are the best, he was just a jerk!" She came and sat near me, so I hugged her again after I said that.

Joey still cannot believe that she did not see it coming. While phoebe doing a weird but effective foot massage, as she is a masseuse, to relax Monica.

"Guess what?" Soon Rachel came toward us.

"You got a job?" Answered ross to Rachel's question.

Rachel didn't and instead got rejected by more than 10 interviews but instead arrives after buying herself a pair of fancy boots with her father's credit card.

Seeing her still being dependent on her dad and not facing reality, prompts us to drag her into the real world, and we encourage her to cut all her credit cards in half and teach her to be independent. While everybody moves her including phoebe whose turn came later and her motivational speech turned dark, turned very fast very quickly. But in the end, she did it to show her new independence.

Later that night, I again got a call from one of the twins and we know how it went. 'Spoiler alert, Satisfactory'.

New day, new morning

After going to take coffee at the café yesterday, we got to know Rachel has gotten herself a job at Central Perk café place, where they are, right now.

"Anybody, More Coffee" Rachel came toward us while carrying a coffee mug.

"Did you make it?" "Or are you just serving it?" I and Chandler asked her.

"I'm just serving it."

"Oh, thank go, I mean I will have some"

"I'll have a cup of coffee."

"Yeah,"

"One for me too"

We all asked for a refill. Because it felt safe to drink it.
