Private Instant Messnger

My boss would like an instant messenger added to the site. But this isn't your standard IM, it's gonna run more like this:
-You see a user online, and click their them to initiate a chat.
-They get a pop up window saying, "So and so would like to start a conversation with you? Do you accept? or Decline?"
-If they accept, it'll bring them to the IM window and they can talk to the person, but also while both people are talking to each other, if someone else wants to talk to one of them, they are presented with a pop-up saying, "This person is currently talking to someone, please try again later"
-If they decline, the window is simply closed.
I have no idea of how I'm gonna program what I mentioned, but I do have an IM already which works, it's just not in it's own popup, but located on every page and it refreshes. Some help please?
