A/N: This chapter is a little shorter than the last two but Here's where we left off, enjoy!
As they slowly approached there hotel room Monica hadn't spoken a word.
"Mon, are you ok?"
"Yeah, yeah I'm fine"
"Is it about what your mother said?" Chandler asked as he unlocked the hotel door and walked in.
Monica just shrugged placing her bag onto the bed and sitting down with it.
"Who's kip?" He asked sitting down next to her.
"He's My ex boyfriend" Monica said looking down At her lap.
"What happened?"
Monica looked up at chandler briefly before taking a deep breath and continuing.
"Well, He was Ross's best friend and he had always been a big part of the family, everybody loved him, and when we started to date my mother was so happy, She never liked any of my boyfriends, but she loved kip. We dated for around 2 to 3 years, I really loved him, and I thought he loved me too"
"What do you mean?"
"well I caught him in bed with my friend Jennifer, And he promised it was a onetime thing and it would never happen again But turns out he had been with her for almost 2 years, So when i decided to break up with him we both decided we would tell our parents and family we split because we just didn't feel the love anymore, He was Ross's best friend and I didn't want to be the reason to split two best friends up so that's what we told them, well that's what I told them, He told Everyone a story which made me look like the horrible one, he told everyone he proposed to me and that I turned him down And he even told my mother I cheated on him several times, And as much as I told my mother, As much as I told everyone that it wasn't true, No one believed me, I had enough trouble getting along with my mother without him stirring shit, everybody hated me for breaking his heart" Monica said as loose tears rolled down his cheeks.
"That's why I moved to New York"
Chandler couldn't believe what he just heard. He didn't know who this kip guy was but he felt like punching the shit out of him. He watched as tears begun to flood faster down her face. He enveloped her in a hug and rubbed soothing circles on her back with his palm.
"shh... I'm sorry I brought it up"
Monica pulled back from his embrace and wiped her cheeks with the back of her hands.
"No its ok, it's already been done there is nothing I can do about it" She replied attempting a smile.
"Do you still love kip?"
"No, it's been 4 years, if I feel anything towards him its hate" She said smiling slightly.
"After 2 years I got fed up with my mother reminding me of what happened with me and kip and nagging about how I didn't have a boyfriend So that's why I made up Matthew, and it actually helped me get over kip, pathetic right?"
"No, it's not pathetic, You know I haven't told anyone this but once I had a fake girlfriend"
"What? Really?"
"Yeah, Her name was Courtney, I remember I was 19 and my two best friends at the time where constantly ringing me telling me how they got laid all the time and stuff and when they asked if I had a girlfriend I said I did, and then one day when my mother asked I stuck with the Courtney story, and being the idiot i am i went home for the holidays and forgot i had told my mother about her and she found out and somehow so did my friends"
Chandler watched as Monica laughed slightly he was happy he could make her smile.
"What was she like, what did you tell your friends when they asked about her?"
"Well i told them what they really needed to know she was Amazing in bed" He said laughing.
"What did she look like"
"I don't know but she was hot! But not as hot as you"
Chandler smiled as he watched her cheeks flood a bright red colour.
"Well it sounds like Courtney and Matthew would make a great couple"
"Yeah we'd call them 'Matteny'" Chandler said as he waved his hand through the air laughing.
Later that day Chandler watched as Monica pulled out all her dresses comparing them to one another several times over.
"Monica we're here for a week, why so many dresses?"
"Because of My mother" was all Monica said grabbing a dress and walking off into the bathroom.
Chandler once again sat on the bed waiting for Monica to get ready. He had already tried to entertain himself by watching TV and trying to get several balls of paper in the trash can that sat near the television.
10 Minutes later Chandler layed on the bed throwing a cushion up above him and catching it several times over. He sat up at the sound of the bathroom door opening and at the sight of Monica his jaw was on the floor. She stood there with her hair curled sitting just above her shoulders. A necklace around her neck that reflect the little lights off the chandelier. And a tight red neckline dress that stopped just above her knees. It also showed just enough clevledge to make any man go crazy. Monica clicked her fingers in front of chandlers face to try and get his attention. Chandler pulled away from his eyes drift and blushed a light red colour. She had seen him staring at her.
"Sorry I was just...Thinking, But wow Monica you look beautiful" Chandler said standing up and taking another long look at her.
"Matthew is one lucky man" Chandler said as he winked at her.
"Well it's too bad he's not real then, but thank you" Monica said facing away from chandler in an attempt to hide her bright red cheeks.
Monica laughed lightly grabbing her purse and taking a hold of chandler's hand.
"Come on we better go, Quicker we're there quicker we can leave" She smiled walking them out the door.
They arrived at the restraunt Before Anyone else. Which was actually surprising due to the fact Monica's mother was never late. Chandler looked to his left to see Monica fiddling uncomfortably with the cutlery in front of her. He placed his hand on top of hers in an attempt to stop her.
"Monica you're panicking" He said rubbing his thumb slightly over the back of her hand.
"I just know something is going to go wrong"
"Mon ill make sure nothing will go wrong, trust me" He said smiling at her.
She didn't know why but Looking at that smile chandler displayed on his face ensured her everything would go fine. Just then Monica's parents walked in arm in arm. Several greeting where said but jack gellers greetings caught attention.
"So you're Matthew? I pictured you to look much different" Jack said shaking chandler's hand gripping it a little too tightly.
"I am, it's nice to meet you Mr. Geller"
"Well I just want to let you know now if you hurt my little harmonicas feelings like that previous boyfriend of hers you better watch out"
At jacks comment Judy scoffed. Obviously believing different. In her mind no one was hurt in that relationship but Kip.
"Oh I will never hurt her, ever, never, never, never"
"So Tell me more about your relationship" Judy said.
"Well what do you want to know?" Monica asked.
"Well How did you meet, Monica never told me"
"Oh well I had just moved in across the hall and I remember seeing her for the first time and knowing I was going to do whatever it took to get this beautiful woman to fall in love with me. I walked across the hall to introduce myself and I introduced myself as her knight in shining armour and things just kind of up lifted from there" Chandler said smiling.
Monica studied his face. He had just told her parents truthfully how they met. But he had said he would do whatever it took to get her? Was that true? No, it couldn't be he was just playing his character.
"Well isn't that sweet" Judy said throwing her hand in the air to Indicate the waiter to her assistances.
After dinner Monica and chandler walked the abandoned streets of Tulsa back to the hotel room.
"Tulsa definitely hasn't heard of a night life?" Chandler said trying to break the tension he wasn't even aware was there.
" Obviously" Monica said laughing slightly before remaining silent for the remainder of the walk back.
As they arrived to their hotel door chandler stopped her just outside.
"See didn't I tell you everything would go just fine?"
"Well it defiantly went better then I suspected" Monica said looking down.
"Monica is there something wrong? You've been silent for like the whole walk home?"
"I was just thinking"
"about?"
"Well tonight with my parents, you said all these wonderful things, but none of them related to the story's we created"
"Yeah I know, I'm sorry about that"
"No Don't be sorry. I just want to know..."
"What?"
"Was that Matthew talking or chandler?"
"It was chandler"
"Really?" She said just above a whisper.
"Yeah once I said one thing everything just kept spilling out, I was never good at keeping secrets"
Monica hadn't even realised how close his face had inched to hers. She could feel the warmth of his breath against her lips. They where only mere inches away and before she knew it she found herself leaning in and making contact with his lips.
