TW: Mention Of Homophobic Bullying
Joey pov
I looked up from the TV as chandler and Ross walked in. They looked as though someone had died and simultaneously said a rather depressed "hi" we asked them what had happened and apparently some guys down at the coffee house had bullied them into leaving and taken chandlers hat. I had a few things id like to say to them. I watched as Rachel pulled ross into her arms and chandler sarcastically copied Ross except to the empty air around him. "Oh that's right I have no one." I desperately wanted to have him sink into my arms fondly and be there to tell him it was all okay but I couldn't. And I never could. Monica must've seen the pathetic look on my face cause she"gave me a "just tell him" look and I almost regretted telling her I had a crush on him. I laughed it of, giving her a "I will" sort of look and patted chandler on the back comfortingly, poor guy. He told me after his dad had left him people had somehow found out about it all and started bullying him pretty bad, after hearing that I never wanted him to go through that again. I wish I could go down there to the coffee house and beat up those guys for him and scream at them to leave him alone. I wish i could just grab him in my hands and kiss him so he knows he'll never be alone- but that could never happen.

After my hat was taken I retreated to my room for some time alone, I wasn't upset about it or anything, just kinda bummed and some nasty memories from middle school were coming back relentlesly. Memories of when some kids had found out my dad was gay and decided that was a good enough reason to beat the crap out of me every day. Not only that but when I decided to wear a pride pin even after they'd already bullied me they called me the f slur and stomped on the pin. I had worn it in support for my dad- also partially because I had wondered wether I might too be gay- but after that I just preferred to comform to society. It was just easier. And now those guys stealing my hat- its like its happening all over again.
I floped on my bed and screamed into my pillow. Tears dripped from my eyes and my nose ran. I sniffed. I was so pathetic. I sat up and wiped my eyes, then stood when I heard footsteps. The door opened and joey walked in. For a moment I was embarrassed, only wearing a white tee-shirt and boxers, but I didn't care after the trauma I'd been reliving all afternoon.
"Whats up," I asked.

~ a few moments before~
I paced in the hallway, wondering what to do. I should tell him how I feel but I know Chandlers straight. He doesn't seem like it but he is. If I told him I'd just be ruining our friendship and I dont wanna do that. I just don't know wether I can keep this a secret any longer. I heard footsteps and stopped pacing. It was ross, gosh what did he want?
"Hey joey," he paused, "watch'a up to?"
I laughed. "Just deciding wether to completely ruin my entire life, what about you?"
"What?" He walked up to me and placed his hand on my shoulder. "Joey, are you okay? Whatever this is can't be good, if I hadn't come along you would've worn a rut in the floor with all this pacing."
"Okay. But promise you won't tell chandler," I said. Ross nodded. "And that you won't hate me."
He tilted his head, "Well I could never hate you joey." I rubbed my hands together nervously.
"Okay. Uh, I um, uh... ihaveacrushonChandler." I covered my face with my hands and turned to walk away when he wrapped me in a hug.
"Joey if you think this would break our friendship you are so wrong. Are you gonna... tell him?"
I nodded. "Yeah i think I will. Thanks man, it means the world to me that you're okay with this." Then I walked inside.

I opened chandlers door and tried not to blush when I saw he was only wearing boxers and a tee-shirt. Perfect outfit to confess my crush to him, I thought sarcastically.
"Whats up," he asked, his voice wavering. Swiping a hand across his face, he shifted in his bed to face me and he gave me an obviously fake smile. I rushed to his side and, not crowding him, placed my hand around his shoulders.
"Hey, Chan, those guys aren't- they don't- they aren't... it's not because of..." I didn't know what to say. I'd never had a way with words so I pulled him into a proper hug and he didn't protest, collapsing into me. His tears soaked my shoulder but I didn't care. I just needed to be there for him right now. I almost forgot he was only in boxers and a tee-shirt. Almost.
"Thanks man," he said, pulling away. Chandler wiped his eyes, looking slightly embarrassed. He looked so cute and it was killing me. I swear he doesn't know how beautiful he is.
"Yeah, well..." I trailed off. "I'll always be here for you, Chan." I felt heat spread across my cheeks and turned my head away. "I'll always be here as your friend, to comfort you and to encourage you- but as well as that," I paused, not sure if i should say what I was about to say. "Chandler. I love you, and not just in a friend way. I hate that its taken me so long to tell you and im sorry if this freaks you out, but I can't keep it from you." I looked back at him and to my surprise he was smiling. "What?"
"I... I always pushed the thought of being gay away, never wanted it to be true. But for a while I haven't been able to, mostly cause of you. That's why the bullies affected me so much man... cause I figured people would act like that if they knew, cause I dont want to lose friends. But if I have you, I'll be scared, but I can be brave." And with that he grasped my face and smashed his lips onto mine hungrily, as though he'd been waiting for this moment for so long. I have too. I didn't hesitate to kiss him back and when we pulled apart, if it was possible be looked even more incredible.
Again, so sorry I haven't updated this. I have so many ideas but writing them down is a pain. I promise to try to do more tho and im really sorry if this sucks!
