Hey!! I'm back with yet another attempt at fanfic slash. And yes, you heard me: SLASH. Meaning a guy on guy pairing. If you don't like this sort of thing, may I suggest clicking the "Back" button near the top of the page?
For those of you who want to stay and read, be my guest. Yay! Y'know, I think I'm slowly just slowly getting better at this whole writing thing. I don't know. It was fun, but I'm not sure if I'll do it again. This is just something I had to get down. I really hope you enjoy! crosses fingers
This takes place during season 4 in TOW Chandler in a Box. Most of the dialogue is from the show, but as you read further on toward the end, it gets more original, so please bear with me.
I don't own Friends, but I wish I did. I mean, who wouldn't?

Ross: Joey, the guy's your best friend.

Joey: No, was my best friend. Anyway, I don't know why you're pushin' for him so hard. With him outta the way as my best friend, there's a spot open.

Ross: Who me?

Joey: Yeah!

Ross: Wow, I'm honored. Y'know what I'm gonna do as my first act as your new best friend?

Joey: What?

Ross: I'm gonna get you to talk to Chandler.

Joey: Alright, but if you weren't my best friend…

Later that day, Joey went downstairs to Central Perk to talk to Chandler, just as his new best friend Ross had asked. A part of Joey was glad he was going to do this. He and Chandler would talk things out and they'd be friends again. Though, he was still a mad at Chandler for what he did, but he still wanted to be friends with him, if not anything more.

Joey walked into the coffee shop and looked to see if his former best friend was sitting on the orange couch, but he wasn't there. It was occupied by other people. He then quickly glanced around the room in front of him. Nope, still no Chandler.

Instead of calling out Chandler's name, Joey went up to Gunther to ask where he was, not knowing that the person he was looking for was right behind him, on the other side of the coffee shop.

"Hey, Gunther," Joey began. "Have you, uh- have you seen Chandler?"

"I thought you were Chandler?" Gunther asked in confusion. "But, um, one of you's over there," he pointed out.

Joey turned around to see Kathy and Chandler kissing. Anger started to boil in him, but soon, that anger turned to hurt. It hurt him so much to see them together.

"Oh," Kathy let out at seeing Joey.

"Hey, Joe," Chandler guiltily greeted.

Joey felt that anger return and responded with a curse in Italian and left. He headed up back to their apartment to pack, so he could stay someplace else. He'd probably have to stay at his parents' place, because if he stayed with one of the other friends', they'd probably try to make him talk to Chandler again. He just couldn't be around Chandler right now. Not when it hurt so much.

When Chandler finally reached the apartment, he opened the door and walked in. "Hey, I'm sorry, That--where're you going?"

Joey avoided looking at him and began to button up his jacket. "My folks."

Chandler started to worry and asked Joey when he'd be back, but Joey told him that he didn't know and also revealed how he was going to look for a new apartment. Chandler couldn't believe what he'd just heard.

"Yeah, y'know uh, at first I thought we could talk about this, y'know, work it out, but uh, seeing you two together, I don't-" He shook his head. Just thinking about Kathy and Chandler together made him feel a pang of heartache.

"Hey, what do you want me to say? Do you want me to say that I'll stop seeing her?"

Yes, Joey answered in his mind. But instead of telling Chandler that, he just told him that it wasn't about her. Of course it is, came a voice in Joey's head. Shut up, came another. But he doesn't belong with her, the first voice argued. Joey badly wanted to give in and confess to the other man how he really felt. Not just about the situation itself, but his deep feelings for him. Instead, Joey just told Chandler that he couldn't live with someone who didn't know what it is to be a friend and headed for the door with his bag. He just wanted to get out of there, and fast.

Chandler quickly stopped Joey by grabbing the bag out of his hand. Joey was forced to face him.

"Hey, I know what it is to be a friend. I just, I screwed up."

"Yeah, you did." Joey grabbed the bag back from Chandler. " And that's why I'm leaving."

Then Chandler brought up how Joey should stay for the chick and the duck, if not for him. He even mentioned how they've not been the same since the robbery. Hearing this, Joey angrily confessed how, during the time he was trapped in the entertainment center, he'd been thinking about how he'd let Chandler down.

"Wow." Chandler was speechless.

Joey continued, "Yeah, but if I had known what kind of friend you'd turn out to be, maybe I wouldn't have worried so much. See you around." He turned to leave yet again.

Chandler followed him and reached for Joey's arm, so he could turn him back around again. Joey was getting tired of this. All he wanted to do was leave. He just wanted to forget about Chandler and what he did. Nothing was ever going to happen between them. Especially not now.

'Wait, there's gotta be something I can do. Something." Chandler just couldn't bear the thought that Joey was leaving him.

There was something that Joey did want him to do, but that was just wishful thinking. He decided to just tell Chandler that there was nothing he could do to fix things. But as Joey began to speak, Chandler's lips were suddenly on his. Joey froze and couldn't believe what was going on, the thing he wanted was finally happening and there was a glimmer of hope that Chandler wanted this, wanted Joey, too. Chandler's kiss became harder and more intense and eventually, Joey relaxed enough to kiss Chandler back.

It felt so good and so right, just as Joey had imagined it would be. He just wanted to stay like this forever, to kiss and hold Chandler and to know that he was finally his. Soon, their lips parted to a more passionate kiss, their tongues roughly and shyly exploring each other's mouths. Joey dropped the bag and wrapped his arms around Chandler's waist to bring him nearer. He felt himself melting into Chandler's arms. Getting caught up in the passion, he grabbed the other man, turned the both of them around, and then pressed him up against the door. Chandler moaned and grabbed Joey's face and pulled him closer and kissed him even more deeply.

Wow, Chandler thought. Who knew kissing Joey would feel so good? But as he felt Joey leave his mouth and begin to hungrily kiss his neck, Chandler realized what they were doing. Oh my god, Joey! Chandler began to panic. I'm making out with Joey! When his mind finally started working again, Chandler pushed him away and moved towards the kitchen counter.

"Whoa, wha--what was that?? We did not just, I mean we're not-" Chandler was at a loss for words.

All at once, Joey's hope began to fade. He had thought that Chandler wanted him too, but realized that Chandler probably was disgusted by what had happened and felt that it was a mistake. That thought completely crushed Joey, and felt even more heartbroken than before.

But Chandler wasn't disgusted and he didn't think that their kiss was a mistake. In fact, he liked it and wanted so badly to do it again, but he didn't want to admit it.

Joey didn't know what to say either. "Um, I- I don't know. I didn't mean to. It was, it was, uh…"

The two of them stood there and stared at each other. Neither of them could admit to what they were feeling. They were both so confused and shocked by the heated kisses they'd exchanged. After a moment longer, Joey couldn't take the silence between them and decided to leave. A part of him wanted to stay to talk things out with Chandler and find out how he really felt, but another part of him was afraid of what he might hear.

" I- I have to go," Joey grabbed his bag and opened the door. He gave one sad, final glance at Chandler before leaving and then shut the door behind him.

Chandler didn't go after him this time and stood where he was, still feeling stunned and confused.

Not sure if I'll continue this. I don't feel ready for multi-chapter stories. Anyway, I hope you guys liked it! Bye!
