Hey guys. So I'm in the mood for writing an incredibly sappy story and I heard the song One Boy, One Girl by Collin Raye on the radio and it practically screamed to be a Chandler and Monica fanfic. So here ya go.

It is a song fic so therefore it is slightly AU. Ross and Chandler are best friends and roommates. They are juniors in college. Rachel is dating Ross. Rachel is Monica's best friend, Monica is Ross' sister but her and Chandler still have yet to meet. Phoebe and Joey will play a part later on.

Disclaimer: I own nothing, except some of the general ideas of the story.

One Boy, One Girl

Chandler walked into his dorm after yet another bad date. He threw his jacket down on the chair nearest the door and collapsed onto the couch with a heavy sigh. He couldn't figure out what was wrong with him. He was 22 years old and still had yet to have a serious girlfriend. It wasn't that he didn't try, he had gone out on plenty of dates over the years, it was just nothing ever seemed to work out. He rolled his eyes and placed a pillow over his ears as he heard his roommate, Ross in his room with his girlfriend, Rachel. Those two had been going out for 6 months after Ross had finally gotten the courage to ask her out.

He heard moving around and suddenly the sounds of footsteps and of a door opening. "Oh hey Chandler." Rachel greeted happily.

"Hi Rach." Chandler said. He and Rachel had gotten close in the last couple of months. When Ross would sleep in or when he was studying for an exam, Chandler would keep Rachel entertained. It was getting to the point where she practically lived with them. She was a freshmen and was studying fashion and her dorm was on the other side of the school.

"Ross is writing some paper." Rachel explained as she sat down on the arm chair where Chandler had thrown his jacket.

Chandler nodded understandingly.

"I thought you had a date tonight?" Rachel asked.

"I did but it's not going to work out." Chandler said bitterly.

"Aww honey I'm sorry." Rachel said. She knew all about his recent sad attempts at dating. "Maybe the next one will." She encouraged.

Chandler shrugged. "I don't know, maybe I'm just destined to be alone forever."

Rachel shook her head. "You are not. You are smart, funny, cute and sweet. Any girl would be lucky to have you."

"Thanks, Mom." Chandler joked earning him a playful slap on the knee.

"I'm serious. You don't give yourself enough credit." She said thoughtfully, then suddenly she got an idea. "You know, there is someone I think you should meet."

Chandler looked at her with wide eyes. "I don't think so. You know what happened the last time someone tried to set me up, I ended up with that Janice woman." He said wincing at just the thought of the incredibly annoying woman.

Rachel laughed. "I promise, she will be nothing like Janice. I've actually known her my entire life, she was my best friend in high school. Her name is Monica."

"Monica as in Ross' sister, Monica?" Chandler asked and Rachel nodded in response. "No."

"Chandler come on, I'm sure you guys would hit it off." Rachel said.

"No Rach, it wouldn't work out and then what would happen with me and Ross? He would hate me for dumping his sister." Chandler reasoned. "And what would he even think about us going out? There's a rule for this kind of situation."

Rachel scoffed. "Oh yeah? What rule?"

"Guys don't date their best friends ex-girlfriends or sisters or anyone their related too." Chandler said.

"That's the dumbest rule I've ever heard." Rachel said with a laugh. "Come on, one date won't kill you. Ross won't mind and if he does, just let me talk to him. Plus Monica's great, I think she might just be your type."

"I have a type?" Chandler asked incredulously. "I wasn't aware of that."

Rachel rolled her eyes at his sarcasm and chose to ignore him. "Mon's smart, pretty, funny and a little neurotic, just like you. You'll balance eachother out."

"Or drive eachother crazy." Chandler said.

"So do I take that as a yes?" Rachel asked loving the idea of playing matchmaker.

Chandler reluctantly agreed. "Ok one date." He only hoped he wouldn't regret it later.

He finally gave in to his friend's girlfriend when she said "there's someone you should meet"

Two days later Chandler was sitting in The Rainbow Room restaurant waiting for his date to arrive. He knew this wasn't a good idea. He had been set up numerous times by friends before and it never ended well. The only reason he even agreed to this was for Rachel, she seemed so desperate to see him happy.

Chandler sighed, he was getting a little anxious and was beginning to wonder if Monica would even show. From what he knew about her from Ross and Rachel, which wasn't much, was that she so was out of his league. He already knew she was beautiful and had told Ross so the first time he saw her picture. Why would she even agree to go out with a guy like him?

At a crowded restaurant way cross town, he waited impatiently

Chandler was just about to get up to get himself another drink when he saw her walk into the room. His jaw dropped and he gasped. She was gorgeous. The pictures of her that Ross had didn't do her at all justice. Her hair was lightly curled and she wore it down so that it fell across her shoulders. She had a red strapless dress on that showed off her curves perfectly and she didn't wear much make-up. He couldn't take his eyes off of her.

Monica walked into the restaurant and looked around. She only had a slight idea what Chandler looked like. She tried to pin point a guy who could fit the profile Rachel had given her. It didn't take long. She noticed a guy sitting at one of the center tables practically gawking at her. She gave him a small smile as she looked him over. He was definitely cute with sandy brown hair and the most beautiful blue eyes she had ever seen. She knew by his reaction that that must be Chandler. She slowly got up the courage to walk over to him.

When she walked in, their eyes met,
And they both stared
Right there and then,
Everyone else disappeared, but

"Hi." She said.

"H...hi." Chandler stuttered, not quite believing that she didn't turn around running at the sight of him.

"You must be Chandler." Monica said not letting the smile leave her face.

"I...am Chandler. I mean yes. I'm Chandler." He said taking her hand and kissing it. "It's nice to meet you Monica." He didn't know where the sudden self-confidence had come from.

Monica giggled and pulled her hand away.

"Wow, you are so beautiful." Chandler said. "I've seen pictures of you, they don't do you justice."

"Thanks, your not so bad yourself." Monica smiled.

"Really?" Chandler asked shocked. He really thought he was just an average looking guy, nothing special about him.

Monica nodded. She grinned even wider when he pulled out her chair for her and she sat down.

After ordering their drinks and prospective meals, they began talking and soon realized they had a lot in common.

"So basically this guy only dated me because of a bet." Monica explained as she rolled her eyes. Chandler couldn't believe anyone not wanting to be with her. She was beautiful and sweet and actually interesting to talk to. He actually wanted to hear what she had to say.

"I'm really sorry about that. I guess I'm not the only one who's had a hard go at relationships then." Chandler said with a slight laugh.

Monica smiled. She was finding herself enjoying this date more then any date she had ever been on before. Chandler actually seemed to want to pay attention to her. Maybe Rachel had been right for a change.

One boy, one girl,
Two hearts beating wildly,

"Want to dance?" Chandler asked as he heard one of his favorite songs begin to play.

Monica nodded and stood up as he extended his hand to her and she took it as he lead her to the dance floor. A few minutes into the song and she felt herself relaxing. She even went as far as to put her head on his chest as her arms encircled his neck. She felt so comfortable around him and felt a connection to him unlike any other.

Chandler couldn't help marvel at the fact that she seemed to fit so perfectly into his arms. He had known as soon as she walked into the room that she was special.

He could feel his heart beating rapidly in anticipation as he wanted to kiss her. He lowered his face to hers and used his finger to move her chin up so that she was looking directly into his eyes. He could see that she wanted to kiss him just as badly as he wanted to kiss her. So slowly he put his lips over hers. Immediately fireworks began going off in his head as they kissed for a good minute before coming up for air. That kiss had been so perfect, neither had wanted it to end.

He smiled at her and she smiled back and it was then that they knew. This was it, the moment they had been waiting for. The moment that made up for all the bad dates and failed relationships. The moment they both realized what love really was.

To put it mildly, it was love at first sight.
He smiled, she smiled, and they knew right away
This was the day they'd been waiting for all their lives.
For a moment the whole world
Revolved around one boy, and one girl
