This is an AU fic taking place at the end of the 4th season, beginning of
the 5th season. I was watching reruns when I got this idea. There never was
an Emily so London never happened. Ross and Rachel never broke up they're
engaged. Chandler and Monica aren't together (At least not yet hee hee)
Joey and Phoebe are both single.

Title: Looking For Love In All The Wrong Places
Rated: PG
Summery: Ross and Rachel's wedding depresses Monica, will she ever find love and happiness like her brother did.
Chapter 2: More Than Friends
Monica stood beside Phoebe both dressed in brides maids gowns watching their bestfriends get married. Every once and while Monica would steal glances at Chandler. He looked so sexy standing there in his tux standing up for Ross as his bestman. She listened to her brother and bestfriend vow to love each other and care for each other forever. For a brief moment she saw not Ross and Rachel but her and Chandler saying their vows. "Come on Mon get a grip it was just a kiss" she said to herself. The minister pronounced Ross and Rachel husband and wife. Monica sighed softly as she watched Ross take Rachel in his arms and kiss her.
Later at the reception Monica sat alone nursing her scotch on the rocks with a twist when her mom came over. "It was a beautiful wedding wasn't it dear" Monica nodded "Yes mom it was Ross never looked happier" she whispered. "If it wasn't for your brother I never would have gotten to throw a wedding or have grandkids" Judy stated. Monica glared at her "I'm gonna get married and have kids someday" Judy laughed "Come on Monica you're almost thirty you're running out of time you know"
Monica could feel the tears filling her eyes. She got up from the table and was heading for the exit when she heard Rachel call her. "Mon come on I'm throwing the bouquet maybe you'll catch it and your wedding will be next" she giggled. Monica sighed she really didn't care but she participated for Rachel. She ended up catching it and she wasn't even trying. "No fair I wanted to catch it" Phoebe teased. "Here you can have it" she said handing it to her. "No you caught it, its yours" Phoebe smiled "You're getting married next and I bet I know who the groom will be" Monica shook her head. "There is no groom Pheebs"
Phoebe smiled "Yuh huh Chandler" she giggled "I saw the way you kept looking at him during the ceremony" she said. Monica laughed a fake laugh "Yeah sure Pheebs you been baking brownies again haven't you" she said as she left.
Monica sighed heavily as she leaned on the brick wall. She shivered a little. "Are you cold" someone whispered startling her. She looked up to see Chandler standing there offering her his jacket. She nodded. He placed it over her shoulders his fingertips brushing her bare shoulder. His touch sent a shiver up her spine. "So was your mom giving you a hard time again" he asked. "Yeah the usual that Ross is the prefect one giving her a wedding to plan and grandkids" she whispered beginning to cry softly.
It broke Chandler's heart to see her so upset. "Aww Mon don't cry" he whispered pulling her into a hug. "Someday you'll find the prefect guy, have the prefect wedding, and the perfect kids" he said softly stroking her hair. "I wish I could be that guy" he thought as he held her. After the kiss they shared the other night she was all he could think about.
Monica pulled away enough to look at him. "What if I've already found the perfect guy but I'm too afraid to tell him how I feel" she whispered. His heart sank when she mentioned a guy. "Well I think any guy would be thrilled to learn you like them" he whispered. "Really" she asked. "Mon you're beautiful, smart, and sweet any guy would be lucky to have you" he said. "But what if I tell him and he doesn't feel the same or he laughs" she asked "What if you do tell him and he does turn out to be the one" he whispered "and if he doesn't feel the same or laughed then he's an idiot who doesn't deserve you"
Monica took a deep breath. "Okay" she whispered. "Chandler ever since that kiss we shared a few days ago you're all I've been able to think about but I'm sure you could never see me as more than your friend, as Ross's little sister" she rambled. She looked up at him for a response but he said nothing. Chandler felt like jumping for joy, or ding his dance when he found out he was the guy Monica was interested in. "I...I guess I should go back inside" she whispered feeling stupid for saying anything.
Chandler reached for her hand. "Wait" he whispered pulling her close to him. His lips slowly met hers for an amzing kiss just like the one they shared the other night. He smiled as he lightly touched her cheek. "I haven't been able to stop thinking about you either" he whispered. "So what, umm what does this mean" she asked. "It means I'd like to be more than friends" he said with a smile "So Monica Geller would you like to go out with me sometime" he asked with a goofy grin. Monica smiled "Yes, I'd love to" she answered. He smiled and hugged her. Monica had never been happier. She had a date with a great guy who just happened to be her bestfriend and just maybe her Mr. Right.
Chapter 3: The First Date....Mon and Chandler go out on their first date...Coming Soon!!
