Something About You.
For everyone that reviewed my last story 'I Just Didn't Know It' thank you, you inspired me to write this companion piece. It's quite similar, but it's how Chandler regarded it all.
Chandler's POV, companion to 'I just didn't know it'. The what-could-have-beens.
Disclaimer: I don't own Friends, although I would have done a better job with Chandler and Joey that the ones who do D:.
I tried many times, just to tell you how I felt. There was something about you, that just said no.
I always wanted to consider us a couple. We even posed as one. I almost told you, but there was something about you, that just said no.
I always hated the bracelet. I always loved how you got one, just for me. I hoped it meant more, but there was something about you, that just said no.
When you left, it hurt. Ross told me, I had to accept, we weren't nothing more that friends. He know. I wished you did. Again, there was something about you, that just said no.
When you came back, I dared hope you returned how I felt. I dared hope so many things that night. Something about you, just said no.
When you told me about Janice, I looked so hurt, I just wanted you to hold me. Something about you, just said no.
I never wanted Kathy. I just wanted you to notice me. I wanted you to be jealous for me. Something about you, just said no.
When I slept with Monica, I dared hope when you came in, you'd save me, tell me you felt for me, stop me from making a mistake. Something about you, just said no.
When I kissed you, you kissed me back. Something about you, just said no.
When I had to tell you I was leaving, I saw you die. I felt myself die. I hoped you felt the same as I did. Something about you, just said no.
At the wedding, I hoped you'd say something. I hoped you'd get it wrong, that I wouldn't end up married. That you'd find some place for me. Something about you, just said no.
When you fell in love with Rachel, I wanted to support you. When I tried to comfort you as more than a friend, something about you, just said no.
When you got to kiss Rachel, I heard it. Monica was curious. I was just jealous. Why her, and not me? Something about you, had just said no.
When I came to this stupid house, in these stupid suburbs, when I saw how it hurt you, I knew. I knew you felt the same way.
But it was too late,
Too many times, something about you, had just said no.
