I got the idea for this fic while watching the local news here in Chicago.
They were talking about some deadly weather that hit parts of Illinois,
Kansas, Minnesota, Indiana, and Oklahoma and I was thinking that Chandler
was working in Oklahoma so maybe I could make a story out of it.
This fic takes place in the present. Chandler and Monica are married. Chandler didn't quit his job in Tulsa and they never went to a fertility clinic. Monica has just found out she's pregnant but hasn't told Chandler yet. Rachel is living with Joey but she's dating Ross and Phoebe is dating Joey. Charlie doesn't exist in this fic.

Title: Blame It On The Weather
Rated PG
Summery: When bad weather strikes Tulsa, Chandler is stuck in the middle of it.
Chapter 6: Little By Little
Chandler looked around nervously as he was surrounded by darkness. The darkness faded away and he found himself in the middle of a coffee house. There was a big orange couch and behind the counter was a man with bright blonde hair. Chandler then saw himself sitting on the couch with Monica beside him. There was a woman sitting in a chair beside the couch. She had long blonde hair a one lone cookie in a zip lock bag. She handed it to Monica. He looked at the cookie and then at the blonde woman. "We can't except that" he said. "Why not" the blonde said. "Because its gross" he answered. The image faded almost as fast as it came.
Chandler woke up. He looked around. He wasn't in a coffee house he was still in the hospital. He felt someone move beside him. Monica was sleeping snuggled next to him. He smiled as he remembered the kiss they shared earlier. It had been an incredible kiss. He wondered if all their kisses had been like that. He gently brushed her dark hair out of her face. He ran his finger gently over her lips, her cheeks and her eyelids. Her eyes fluttered open and he smiled at her. "Hey sleeping beauty sleep well" he whispered.
Monica smiled "I haven't slept this good in weeks" she said softly. "Why not' he asked "Well for one I never sleep well when you're away and being pre" she suddenly stopped herself when she realized what she was about to say. "Being what" he asked. "Oh umm being preoccupied with work" she said quickly. "Oh where do you work" he asked. "Javu I'm the head chef" she whispered. "Monica do we spend time in a coffee house" Monica nodded "Yeah Central Perk" she answered "Is there an orange couch and a guy with bright blonde hair" Monica laughed "That's Gunther and the orange couch is our favorite spot we always sit there" She looked at him "Why are you asking did you remember something"
Chandler shrugged "I don't know, maybe" he said. "Tell me what you think you remembered" she said softly. "You and I were sitting on the orange couch and there was a woman with long blonde hair sitting in a chair beside the couch she handed you a cookie in a zip lock bag." he started. "Then I said we couldn't except it because it was gross" he finished. Monica laughed "That was Phoebe I wanted her grandma's cookie recipe for our engagement present but it was burnt in the fire in her apartment so she gave me the cookie so I could figure out the recipe" she giggled. "You wanted to be the mom who made the world's best chocolate chip cookies" Chandler said with a smile.
Monica smiled. "Yes!" she exclaimed "You're remembering more little by little" she said happily. Chandler remembered something else. "Hey Mon why did you tell me Rachel was Ross's girlfriend" he asked. "Because she is" she answered "But they broke up they kept yelling we were on a break, no we weren't and we were stuck in your bedroom eating Waxeen which Joey actually liked" Monica nodded "Yeah that happened but they got back together four months later while we were at the beach then they broke up again and got back together a few months after Emma was born" she said.
"The beach" he said "Was there a big hole, a jelly fish and something about boyfriend material" he questioned. She nodded. "Joey dug a hole in the sand, I got stung by a jellyfish and I umm I" she stopped. "Said I wasn't boyfriend material" he finished for her. "I'm sorry Chandler" she whispered. "For what" he asked "Well for acting the way I did when we were on the beach." He smiled as he reached out and touched her face. "Don't be babe" he whispered. " I mean after all you did change your mind" he giggled.
"You called me babe" she said with a smile. "Oh sorry" She laughed "No silly that's a good thing you always call me babe" she explained. "I know I'm remembering things little by little but I want to remember more" he said softly. "I want to remember falling in love with you, I want to remember our wedding, our honeymoon, everything about the last five years of our lives together" he whispered. "I can tell our love is something great, something special" he said. She smiled "Really how can you tell" she asked. "Because I can feel it just by being this close to you and it feels great, special" he said softly
Monica looked at him. Silent tears ran down her face. "I...I know I shouldn't be saying this but I ...I love you Chandler" she whispered hugging him. He held her close wishing he could tell her he loved her too but he couldn't not until he could remember loving her which he hoped he remembered soon.
