Sorry about the delay but mid terms were a pain in the ass. Oh and sorry for any typos; I have bad habit with those.

Anyway, on with the story!

I looked into the mirror and smoothed the sides of my dress. I really should have collected these dresses and reused them for each wedding. I still don't know how Michelle did it but she finally was able to tie down the biggest bachelor known to New York City: Joey Francis Tribbiani. I didn't think he was the marrying type but I guess its just a matter of finding the right person.

" Hey Mon, we have to go to our seats soon. Where's Rachel?" Phoebe appeared at the door.

" I think she's with Michelle. I was just about to go over there." We started to walk towards the dressing room. I knocked on the door and when I opened it I gasped. " Oh my god, Michelle you look so beautiful!" She glowed in an empire waist satin gown. She looked like an angel.

" Thank you so much!" She grabbed me and hugged me tightly. She looked as if she was so full of excitement that she would burst.

" Are you nervous?" Phoebe asked.

" Not really, I'm just excited!" She ran to the mirror as her mother adjusted her veil. It reminded me of my wedding. I stood looking at my reflection with my mother adjusting my veil as well. It was one of the only times that I've seen my mother looking so proud of me. She thought that day would never come but finally I caught someone; a doctor none the less. Although everyone around me seem to be elated and grinning from cheek to cheek, I was more nervous than I should have been. Simply because Richard wasn't the one, instead the one would be standing off to the side watching me make such a huge mistake.

" We really should be getting to our seats, the ceremony is about to start" Rachel began. We all said our good byes and told Michelle 'good luck'. I was the last to leave and before I closed the door, I got a glimpse of Michelle holding her bouquet and straitening her dress. The look on her face told me that this is what a bride in love should look like. She was definitely in love with Joey and they were going to have a long, beautiful relationship. It was refreshing to see this; like there was still hope in the world when it came to love.

The church was beautiful. The stained glass windows sparkled from the sunlight and the alter was decorated with lilies. The music began to play and the court proceeded down the isle. Just then Chandler appeared with one of the bridesmaids and seemed more handsome then ever. We locked eyes and my heart stopped. He quickly turned away and continued looking forward. Everyone stood and turned to see the bride come down the isle. I kept looking at him and he glanced in my direction. It was one month since he stormed out of my room. I tried to go to his job but his secretary told me that he was busy. He left a message on my answering machine saying that he thought it would be better for both of us if we didn't see each other anymore. We were just not meant to be and it would be easiest if we kept our distance from one another. I tried to fight him on this but he wouldn't listen, so the only thing I could do was give him his space. I finally saw that we were meant for each other but I was too late and would have to wait for him to give me another chance. So once again I found myself at another wedding longing for the guy that I couldn't have.

" You better talk to him after the ceremony." Rachel whispered.

" That's if he'll listen."

" Make him!" she hissed.

" Okay, okay. I'll talk to him."

The ceremony went perfectly and the reception was held at a near by hall. After Tommy ran off with the other children, I headed for the bar and ordered a scotch. As I sat sipping my drink and watching Joey dance with his mother, Phoebe came and sat in the seat next to me.

" Alcohol, always a good choice." She smirked.

" So how's it going with you Pheebs, we don't talk as much as we used to."

" I'm peachy. How about yourself?"

" I can't complain."

" Things are going exactly as I planned for us"

" What do you mean?"

" Well Ross and Rachel got together and now they have children, Joey married a former model, I found my guy, and you found someone."

" Umm, who did I find?"

" Well Chandler of course! He's the love that you've been looking for but was always right under your nose. Now, you have him!"

" I don't have him. We're not…together."

" Oh, please. You've got him. He was always yours. Even when he and I were together."

" Maybe….You know what? You and I have never really talked about the two of you and now I feel weird talking about this with you . I mean you married him for God's sake."

" Don't worry about it. I'm okay with you two. Chandler and I seemed like a good idea at the time but now we know better."

" I have to admit, I was jealous of you when you married Chandler. I was kind of wishing it was me instead of you."

" It should have been. Hey why don't we go get something to eat. Dinner is already being served."

" I would but there is someone who I really need to talk to."

" Oh, okay. Have fun." I smiled and walked over to Chandler's table. I stood behind him and cleared my throat. He turned and gave me his famous half-smile.

" Weddings are a great place to meet people."

" Have a seat." He motioned to the chair next to him. I nodded and sat down.

" Am I allowed to be near you now?"

" I guess. I mean we're at the same wedding, we were bound to run into each other."

" Sure. My only question is why has it taken us so long to actually sit and have a conversation?"

" Okay, maybe I should have handle that a little better. A message on your answering machine may not have been enough."

" You think?"

" Alright. I just couldn't be near you. It just hurt so much knowing that we could never be. It still does."

" Chandler, you never gave me a chance to explain myself. I have issues with love; I admit that. I've tried to protect myself all these years because every time I opened up, I got burned. I'm over that now. I'm ready. I want to be with you so bad that it hurts. These past weeks have been hell and I know it has been for you too."

" So you only want me when you can't have me?"

" No, its more like I've always wanted you but I just needed time to convince myself that its okay for me to feel this way about you. Lets stop hurting each other and start looking towards our future together."

" What are you saying?" I could see the anxiousness in his eyes and I smiled.

" I think you know what I'm saying."

" I think I know too but I need to hear you say it." I took his hand in mine and looked him in the eyes. I have never felt more confident in my life than at that moment.

" I love you Chandler Bing and I want to be with you for the rest of my life."

" Well that's good to hear because I kinda love you too."

" Only kinda?"

" Okay, maybe a lot."

" Prove it, kiss me now."

" Just try and stop me." We leaned in and I melted at his touch. Only he could have that effect on me. He was the one and only.

We've been together ever since. We got married in an intimate ceremony. We were also able to give Tommy a baby sister.

Love: when your not in it, it can seem illusory or something that people just make up. However when you find that certain person, the whole world looks different. The love that you share can make you feel complete and secure with yourself. Sure it's something that you have to work on everyday but the outcome can be incredible. I gave up on love once and settled for comfort. Some how, it found me again. I just couldn't run away from it. So I say, let go and let love. Your life will never feel the same way.
