~Chapter 1: What could go wrong?
**Just to let you know, Chandler doesn't live across the hall from Monica in this story. Rachel and Ross are together, and Phoebe and Joey are together. Ok! Enjoy the story!**
It had been 5 years today since that horrible accident. It was the first thing Chandler thought about when he woke up every morning. How could he not when his fiancee was lying in a hospital bed almost lifeless? He tried shaking those thoughts out of his mind, and went to take a shower before leaving, once again, for the hospital.
Five Years Earlier:
Chandler looked at his watched as he neared Apartment 20. Exactly 8:00. Right on time, he thought to himself. He knocked on the door. He heard someone nearing the door. Monica answered. He couldn't help but smile. She looked absolutely gorgeous. She was wearing a black dress with the diamond necklace and earrings he had bought her that year for Valentines Day.
"Wow...you...wow." He was speechless. He couldn't find the words to tell her how absolutely ravishing she looked.
Monica giggled and asked if he was ready to go. He nodded and held his arm out for her to intertwine hers with his. They seemed to fit together so perfectly.
They were celebrating their 1 year anniversary. Chandler couldn't believe it. He had been dating Monica for exactly one year. He kept asking himself how he ever got so lucky. Yet, he never had an answer.
Chandler drove towards the park. He had made sure to make the dinner reservations at 9:00, so he knew she wouldn't miss what he had planned.
When they got to the park, Chandler parked the car and ran to the passenger side of the car and grabbed Monica's hand and went running towards the back of the park. She always has loved the park at night, which made this even more perfect.
"Where are you taking me, Chandler?" she asked, giggling. She never did like surprises.
"Just be patient. You'll see," he replied.
When they reached the back of the part, Chandler looked at his watch. 8:14. Great, just one more minute. At exactly 8:15 Monica looked up and saw a small airplane carrying a lit banner on the back. As it got closer, the words became clearer. Monica gasped. She couldn't believe her eyes. Did she really read that? Was she dreaming? She almost pinched herself to find out, but didn't because Chandler began to speak.
"Monica...I love you so much. I couldn't imagine my life without you. I don't even want to. This past year has been the greatest year of my life. And I don't want it to end here. So, Monica, will you marry me?"
**Haha! That's the end of this chapter! Don't you just love cliffhangers? Oh, I do! I have the 2nd chapter written, so it will be up soon!**
