Hey! Wanted to do fanfic! Mondler I hear you ask? Of course! What did you expect? Basically none of the gang met, Monica's a chef and Chandler's new to the area. Other characters may appear, not sure...

Monica Geller sighed as she saw Susie, a waitress at her restaurant come into the kitchen," Susie, what do you want?"

"Sorry Miss Geller - someone wants to compliment the chef in person."

Monica nodded and gestured for her to send the person in. A young man of about twenty came in and his mouth fell open. He stared at Monica, transfixed. She was beautiful and had striking blue eyes, pale flawless skin and gorgeous dark brown hair.

"Umm... Hello?" Monica stared at the man. He was quite good looking with sandy brown hair and handsome features. His blue eyes were beautiful.

The man jumped and blushed, had he been checking her out? "Oh I'm so sorry to bother you. I'm Chandler," he held out his hand and Monica shook it," I just wanted to say that... Well... I didn't think someone so good-looking could cook that well!" He blushed harder and stared at his feet. Where had all that come from?

"Well thank-you, Chandler," she smiled at him and he turned around to go.

"See you around..." he looked at her name badge.

"Monica," she finished for him. He smiled nervously at her and went to leave.

The next day, Chandler Bing woke up early and looked around at his new apartment. He had just moved to the city yesterday and was feeling quite lost. He smiled dreamily as he remembered the beautiful chef from the restaurant yesterday.

Focus Chandler! He shook himself mentally and remembered that he needed to go to his new job! He got dressed and went outside. His office was only a fifteen minute walk and it was a nice day so he decided to walk. Just as was looking up at the sky and humming to himself he bumped into someone. He looked down and when he saw that a woman was on the floor leafing through some papers, he bent down and picked them up for her. They stood up and just as he was about to say sorry he noticed that this girl looked familiar.

"Monica?"

"Chandler?"

"I'm sorry about your papers..."

"Oh that's alright," she grinned at him.

"You wouldn't know where this place is would you? I'm a little lost," Chandler showed her the address and his map.

"Are you new to the area?" she asked him as she pointed out his route on the map.

"Is it that obvious?" he wondered out loud.

Monica laughed, a soft laugh and said," So I get off work early today. Do you want to grab a coffee and I can show you around?"

"Yeah! That's probably a good idea. Should I meet you at your restaurant?"

"Yeah! See you then."

Chandler kissed her hand and Monica blushed and they departed their separate ways, both in awe of the other, anticipating their meeting.
