Dinner date - Chandler Bing Imagine

(Sorry in advance, I'm a raging homosexual writing a story about a straight date) 😌

"Come in, it's open - I'm in the bathroom" You shout to your boyfriend. The noise of the door opening and shutting is faint, but a few moments later you feel a pair of lips on your shoulder.

You smile softly as you turn around and place a light kiss onto Chandler's lips as he hands you a red disposable coffee cup, "Extra milk, just the way you like it" he says in a sing song way, making you giggle. He leaves to go get changed into a smarter attire for tonight - your anniversary.

Grasping the cup with both hands, you take a long sip, placing it back down onto the bathroom counter after you finished it. You're makeup was finally done and you walked into the living room, shouting to Chandler, I'm read-y", you cut off your own sentence as you're shocked to see Chandler dressed up in your favourite outfit of his.

(Imagine anything you would like, but I thought this outfit was nice)

"Is everything okay, darling?" He asks, concerned. "Everything is ... perfect" you say slowly whilst smiling. He returns the smile and kisses your forehead, "let's go", Chandler holds his hand out leading the way, with his other hand holding yours.

You both agree it would be nicer to walk to the restaurant instead of driving, to reduce climate change, but secretly you believe he wants to hold your hand for longer, that or Phoebe has been speaking to him too much.

You're snapped out of your thoughts by a brisk breeze, causing Chandler to take his jacket off and wrap it around you, "we're nearly here now", Chandler assured you, placing his arm around your shoulder and kissing your cheek.

The restaurant's lights lit up the street as faint classical music plays, "Mademoiselle, we're here" he says in an awful French accent, making you laugh louder than you should have.

A waiter takes your coat then leads you to a large table by the window, then delicately places two menus down, "Here are your seats, tonight's special is Parmesan Risotto with Roasted Shrimp", You thank him as Chandler pulls your chair out for you, he leans to your ear and lowers his tone, goosebumps already making themselves apparent. "how mad do you think the waiter will be if I asked if they have any chicken nuggets?" He whispered. You both share a laugh as Chandler returns to his side of the table.

Your eyes dart through the menu looking at all of the options, "The spaghetti sounds amazing, do you know what you're ordering?" He asks, looking back at the menu, "spaghetti sounds perfect" you reply. "Excuse me, waiter" Chandler calls. The waiter came over and takes your orders, leaving shortly after.

Another waiter comes back with your drinks, he places two wine glasses down and pours them in front of you, "I can't believe it's been a year already, it's went by so fast" You say, taking a sip of your red wine. Chandler smiled, "Me too, just think a year ago today I asked you to be my girlfriend". You couldn't hold back a smile as you pictured the day. Chandler was so nervous to ask you, he picked up a bouquet of your favourite flowers and knocked on your door and asked you as soon as you answered. Unfortunately for him, all of the friends were there, but it was still very cute.

"I got you a present" he croaks out nervously as his hand dipped into his pocket, "We never said we were doing presents, I'm so sorry I never got you anything" you say with a guilt ridden voice. "It's not necessarily a present present, but a present" Chandler says still searching in his pocket. "....a present present?" You ask already confused.

A few moments later he pulls out a key, "I know you already technically live at my place, but I wanted you to have this - something official. Y/N would you like to move in with me?"  He asks nervously. You take the key from his hand and kiss him, "yes, of course I'd love to!". Chandler is relieved that you said yes, "at least moving will be easy. All of your things are pretty much at mine already". You both smile and kiss once more, before being interrupted by the waiter coughing to get your attention. You squeak out an apology as Chandler sniggers, "Bon appetite, enjoy your meals", the waiter said leaving in a hurry.
Your face hits your hands as you groan out of embarrassment, Chandler's laugh grew even bigger, "it's fine, we'll just have to leave him a big tip" Chandler laughs once more.

You both finish your food and agree how amazing It was, that you decide to share a dessert, Joey would be jealous..... well of you and the dessert.

The waiter returns once more with the cake, you refuse to make eye contact as he places the dish down, "thank you" you say quietly, Chandler reaches out for your hand to hold under the table, "Thank you, enjoy your night" Chandler follows.

Your face returns to a smile as you realise who was holding your hand, "what?" he smiles, wondering what you were so deep in thought about. You shake your head, "nothing, sorry. I just zoned out". He raises an eyebrow and tilts his head, he knows you aren't telling the truth. You sigh, exhaling "you just have this affect on me" you take another breath "I love you", he was taken back by it at first, but soon returned it, "I love you too, Y/N", his face lit up with excitement as it was the first time he's said it.

You blushed heavily, "so, uhm, this cake looks great" you say laughing, trying to continue like nothing happened. He laughs too, picking up his fork and taking some, "mmm tastes great too, try some" Chandler says, leading the fork towards your side of the table. He's right, it tastes amazing, you make a groaning sound how good it is .... it sounded a little too close to moaning - you got a few weird looks but it was worth it, well in Chandler's opinion at least.

Time skip :)

You let out a sigh as you entered Chandler's apartment, correction - Y/N and Chandler's apartment. The thought made you feel beyond giddy as you placed your key down onto the side. He takes his coat off and hangs it on the coatrack beside you, "welcome to our apartment, Y/N, I'd give you a tour but I think it's a little too late for that" he smiles, walking up to you and kissing you gently, "I'm going to go take a shower, do you want to join me?"

"Always".

A/N - Sorry it wasn't the best, I've been coming back to this for around a month or two, rewriting sections I didn't quite like. ❤️ Thank you so much for reading
