-June 15th 1994-
Elizabeth's P.O.V
I walk into Central Perk where I know Phoebe has mentioned she often hangs out.When I get there I look around and I see her sitting in a chair talking with 4 other people.
Elizabeth:PB!.
Phoebe looks up and see's me.She quickly stands up with a grin.
Phoebe:EM!.
I rush over to her and before I can she pulls me into a hug.
Phoebe:Gosh it's been what...2 years since we last saw eachother in person?.
Elizabeth:I'd think so...We haven't seen eachother since i was singing at Donohue's Bar."Chuckles".
Phoebe:Wow it really has been that long.
Elizabeth:Yeah...Anyway who's your friends Pheebs?.
Phoebe:Oh right.Everyone this is Elizabeth Monroe...EM this is Monica Geller.
Phoebe:Ross Geller.
Phoebe:Chandler Bing.
Phoebe:And Joey.
Joey:"Flirty".Hey How you doin?.
Elizabeth:"Smirks".Fine thank you for asking Joey.
Chandler:"Laughs".She totally dodged you dude.
I laugh at his comment and Phoebe looks at me.
Phoebe:Your always dodging guys.
Elizabeth:Well Yeah.I am used to the flirting.Its a day to day occurance.
Soon I hear someone walk up behind me and I turn around to see a young bartender.
Phoebe:Elizabeth this is Gunther.
Elizabeth:"Smiles".Hello Gunther.
Gunther:Your Elizabeth Monroe from the movie Bartender!.
Elizabeth:I would assume so."Smirks".
Gunther:W-w-would you sign my tie?.
I smile and take the pen he offers me and i sign his tie for him.Once I am done i hand the pen back to him to see him blushing.He tries to say something but runs away instead.
Phoebe:Wow you handled that well.
Elizabeth:"Laughs".After the 5th autograph I was asked to sign these things just come naturally now.
Phoebe:"Smiles".
Monica:So your an actress?.
Elizabeth:Yes.
Phoebe:She also sings!.
I chuckle Phoebe's enthusiasm.
Phoebe:Oh and dances!.
Elizabeth:Pheebs!.
Phoebe:Sorry I got excited.
I laugh and nod.
Joey:I am an actor.
Elizabeth:Really?.
Joey:Yeah.
Elizabeth:Good I'm not left out.
Phoebe:You'll never be.
Me and Phoebe go over and she sits back in the chair and i sit on the floor next to it.
Elizabeth:Then you outta catch me up on this loss time Pheebs.
Chandler:I think i like her.
Ross:"Nods".

-September 22nd 1994-
Me,Phoebe,Joey,Chandler and Monica are all hanging out talking at Central Perk and Monica is telling us about a guy.Joey is sitting in a table chair and I am sitting on the floor next to him as Phoebe is on the couch sitting next to Monica and Chandler.
Monica:There's nothing to tell.He's just some guy I work with.
Joey:C'mon you're going out with the guy!. There's gotta be something wrong with him.
I give Joey a glare and he see's me and smiles.
Elizabeth:Joey be nice.
Chandler:So does he have a hump?.A hump and a hairpiece?.
Phoebe:Wait does he eat chalk?.
We all stare at Phoebe.
Phoebe:Just cause I don't want her to go through what I went through with Carl...oh.
Monica:Okay everybody relax.This is not even a date.It's just two people going out to dinner and not having sex.
Elizabeth:Sounds like a date to me.
Later we are all listening to Chandler telling us of a dream he had.Monics and Chandler are sitting on the couch while Phoebe and I are sitting around the coffee table and Joey is sitting in a lounge chair.
Chandler:Alright so I'm back in high school I'm standing in the middle of the cafeteria and I realize I am totally naked.
Everyone:Oh yeah.
Elizabeth:Had that dream.
Chandler:Then I look down and I realize there's a phone...there.
Joey:Instead of?.
Chandler:That's right.
Elizabeth:Okay nevermind.
Joey:Never had that dream.
Phoebe:No.
Chandler:All of a sudden the phone starts to ring.Now I don't know what to do and everyone starts looking at me.
Monica:And they weren't looking at you before?.
Chandler:Finally I figure I better answer it.And it turns out it's my mother.Which is very,very weird because she never calls me.
Elizabeth:"Sarcastically".Yeah thats the wierd part.
*****************************************
Later on at Central Perk Ross enters all sad.Chandler sits in the table chair Joey sat in hours before as Monica and Phoebe sit on the couch.
Ross:Hi...
Joey:"Sarcastically".This guy says hello I wanna kill myself.
I give Joey a little shove at his comment.
Monica:Are you okay sweetie?.
Ross:I just feel like someone reached down my throat,grabbed my small intestine,pulled it out of my mouth and tied it around my neck...
Chandler:Cookie?."Offers a plate of Cookies".
Monica:Carol moved her stuff out today.
Joey:Oh.
Elizabeth:Sorry sweetie.
Monica:"To Ross".Let me get you some coffee."Gets up".
Ross:Thanks.
Phoebe:Oh.Uh."Starts to pluck at the air around Ross".
Ross:No,no don't!.Stop cleansing my aura. No just leave my aura alone okay?.
Phoebe:Fine.Be murky.
Ross:I'll be fine alright?.Really everyone.I hope she'll be very happy.
Elizabeth:No you don't.
Ross:No I don't to hell with her she left me!.
Joey:And you never knew she was a lesbian...
Ross:No!.Okay?!.Why does everyone keep fixating on that?.She didn't know how should I know?.
Chandler:Sometimes I wish I was a lesbian...
We all stare at Chandler.
Chandler:Did I say that out loud?.
Elizabeth:Oh you sure did Chan."Laughs".
Chandler glares at me so I stop as Monica hands Ross the coffee.
Ross:I told mom and dad last night they seemed to take it pretty well.
Monica:Oh really so that hysterical phone call I got from a woman at sobbing 3am I'll never have grandchildren,I'll never have grandchildren.Was what?.A wrong number?.
Ross:Sorry.
Joey:Alright Ross look.You're feeling a lot of pain right now.You're angry.You're hurting. Can I tell you what the answer is?.
Ross gestures his consent to Joey's answer.
Joey:Strip joint!.C'mon you're single.Have some hormones.
Ross:I don't want to be single okay?.I just...I just,I just wanna be married again!.
A woman in a wedding dress comes in and starts to search the room.
Chandler:And I just want a million dollars!."Extends his hand hopefully".
Monica:Rachel?!.
Rachel:Oh God Monica hi!.Thank God!.I just went to your building and you weren't there and then this guy with a big hammer said you might be here and you are,you are!.
Waitress:Can I get you some coffee?.
Monica:"Pointing at Rachel".De-caff."To everyone".Okay everybody this is Rachel, another Lincoln High survivor."To Rachel". This is everybody,this is Chandler and Phoebe and Joey and this is E-
Rachel:Oh my god Elizabeth Monroe!.
I smile and nod at Rachel.
Monica:And you remember my brother Ross?.
Rachel:Hi sure.
Ross:Hi.
They go to hug but Ross's umbrella opens Ross sits back down defeated again Rachel sits down as we expect her to explain.
Monica:So you wanna tell us now or are we waiting for four wet bridesmaids?.
Rachel:Oh God...well it started about a half hour before the wedding.I was in the room where we were keeping all the presents and I was looking at this gravy boat.This really gorgeous Lamauge gravy boat.When all of a sudden-
A waitress walks over and brings Rachel her coffee and Rachel looks at her.
Rachel:Sweet n Lo?."To everyone".I realized that I was more turned on by this gravy boat than by Barry.And then I got really freaked out and that's when it hit me how much Barry looks like Mr.Potato Head. Y'know I mean I always knew looked familiar but...Anyway I just had to get out of there and I started wondering Why am I doing this and who am I doing this for?."To Monica".So anyway I just didn't know where to go and I know that you and I have kinda drifted apart but you're the only person I knew who lived here in the city.
Monica:Who wasn't invited to the wedding.
Rachel:Oh I was kinda hoping that wouldn't be an issue...
