Thank you for reviewing..

Monica was getting ready when someone knocked on the door. She looked at the clock. He was a little early she thought. She went over to the door and opened it. She tried closing the door when she noticed it was Matt but he came in anyway.

"Well you look nice." He said.

She crossed her arms and stared blankly at him. "What do you want?"

"I told you time and time again. I want us to work things out. I want you to go on a date with me baby." He said.

She was so frustrated with him. "I'm not going on a date with you. I don't love you anymore. Liam has forgotten about you since you haven't bothered to see him in a couple of years."

"Just give me a chance." He begged.

She shook her head. "No. You need to go. I have a date to get ready for."

"Oh really?" He asked.

"Yes now go." She said.

He sighed. "Ok just let me do one thing." He slowly walked over to her, took her face in his hands and softly kissed her.

She pushed him away and backed up. "I said go."

He nodded. He hoped that the kiss did something for her. He wanted her back so bad. He left and saw Chandler in the hall.

"You must be Monica's date." Matt said.

Chandler nodded. He didn't know who this man was.

"I am Liam's father and Monica's ex husband. I don't know why she's going on dates. We are trying to work things out." He lied.

Chandler was shocked. "Ok well I'll see you later." Chandler went up to Monica's apartment. How could Monica do that to him? He knocked on the door with every intention to ask her what was going on. He was speechless when she opened the door.

"You look beautiful." He said.

"Thank you." She said.

Chandler wanted to ask her about Matt and Monica wanted to tell Chandler about him. Neither of them wanted to ruin the evening.

"If you don't want to that's fine, but I was hoping to cook dinner for you tonight at my house." He said as they went to his car and he opened the door for her.

"That sounds great." She said.

He drove her to his house. He had a beautiful house with marble tile on the floor. He poured her a glass of wine as he cooked. He made fish, a salad and some rice. After dinner, he put the dishes in the dishwasher. Then they talked by the fire.

"I need to ask you something." He said. He didn't want to but he had to know. They were having such a great time.

"You can ask me anything." She said truthfully.

He cleared his throat as he got up the courage to ask. "I saw someone in the hall when I was coming to get you. He said his name was Matt and that you too were trying to work things out. Is that true?" He was almost scared of the answer.

She took a deep breath and pushed her back. "I'm sorry he's such a jerk. He is Liam's dad. Liam hasn't seen him since we divorced three years ago. He wants me back but I have no interest in getting back together with him."

He looked into her eyes. "Are you sure?"

She rubbed the back of his neck. "Positive. Please don't listen to him."

He smiled. "Ok."

They almost kissed when Monica got nervous and got up. "It's getting late. I should get Liam from my brother's house."

He nodded. "Ok." He put out the fire and grabbed his keys. "I'll take you."
