Joey pov
It had been a month since he had realised he loved his roommate. Sure, he'd known he was bisexual since he was like 13, but he had only ever dated women. It's not like he hides his feelings for men, he just doesn't talk about them much.
"Hey joe," chandler sighed, walking through the door looking exhausted. "Long day?" Joey asked his crush, not being able to help the heat crawling across his cheeks. "Something like that," chandler sat at the counter and pinched the bridge of his nose. "Say Joe, do you ever... I dunno... it doesn't matter, i should get some rest," he quickly rose from his seat and hurried to his room. "Hey man! Baywatch is gonna be on in a few minutes! You can't sleep now when you could watch running chicks!" Joey laughed, but he was worried. Chandler often came home from work tired and miserable but this was something else. "Yeah, you know what joe, I might miss Baywatch tonight if that's alright," chandler said quietly from his doorway, then shut the door. "Well... ok. Goodnight then, Chandler," he said softly, but there was no reply.

What's wrong with me? Why can't I just be normal and like girls? I swore to be nothing like my father and yet here we are, and it looks like I'm freaking gay. To make things worse Joey always is going on and on about the "chicks" Who run on Baywatch. Chandler would much rather be staring at the big muscly lifeguard men, or better yet Joey. But he and Joey would never happen, Chandler Bing ending up with Joey the ladies man? Not going to happen. He lay in bed after telling joey he wasn't going to watch Baywatch, wanting desperately to not be like he was. "H-hey..." he didn't even realise he was calling out until it was too late. Gosh, he sounded like a two year old calling for its mother. "Hey Joe?" He called, a bit louder. It was silent for a second, only the noises of the tv accompanying him, before it was shut off and footsteps sounded towards his room. He breathed a sigh of relief as his door was opened and a worried looking Joey walked in. "Hey, man, what's up? Are you okay?" Chandler sat up in his bed and strangle-hugged the duvet. "No." Joey sat in bed beside him, prying the blanket from his friend's grip and hugging him. "Hey... I don't know what's going on... but I'm here for you, okay?" He waited for chandler to nod before pulling away. "Okay. Do you want to tell me what happened?" Joeys brown eyes were filled with love, but he tried to hide it. "Not really, but I kind of think I need to," Chandler sighed. Joey nodded, "uh huh, well don't feel pressured, but if you're in this state then you probably should tell someone." Chandler looked down, fiddling with his fingers. "Well, I- I always... ugh how do I do this?" He sighed, but Joey just waited patiently, placing his hand on chandlers. "Well you know how some people say... say that I have a certain quality? A uh certain... gay quality?" Joey chuckled, "yeah." "Well... I uh- I'm, well it's true. About me. Now I don't want you to feel weird around me or treat me any differently... but its true. And I hate it. I'm going to turn out just like my dad and none of you guys will ever accept me and-" "Chandler," he was cut of by Joey, "Chandler, I don't know much about your dad, but you're not him- you're you. And me and the others won't stop loving you, even with this quality, if that's what you want to call it." Joeys eyes sparkled as he placed a comforting hand on chandlers shoulder. "You know... you know how I like girls, right?" He asked, chandler giving him a "not now" kinda look. "Sorry- but like you know?" "Don't be sorry, that just makes me feel like I'm broken more than I already do." Joey tilted his head sympathetically, a crease forming between his eyebrows. "You're not broken, that's not what I meant. Anyway, well I guess I uh kind of have a confession. I'm actually bisexual. I uh like guys as well. And I'm crushing on this guy pretty hard right now, but up until today this... really cute guy, I though he was straight. Turns out he's not, but since... this guy... is my friend I'm afraid he won't love me, at least not in the was I love him." Chandlers mind was racing. He's kidding. There's no way he likes me- has a flipping crush on me. No, he's pulling my leg for sure. Suddenly he realised how close he was to Joey in that moment, how their lips had become millimetres apart, how Joey smelled so great and looked so gorgeous. How he realised how much he was in love. Chandler closed his eyes, reaching up with one hand grazing Joeys cheek and leaned in and pressed his lips to his. He felt warmth surge in his chest as Joey deepened the kiss by prying Chandlers lips open with his tounge and slipping it down his throught. Damn he's a good kisser, time to wake up from this glorious dream now. Joey was the one to break away eventually, staring into Chandlers eyes. "I don't normally say this after the first kiss, but I think it's well overdue. I love you." Chandler sighed, warapping his arms around his new boyfriend, "I love you too, Joe."
