This takes place about a year and a half after Ross and Rachel broke up. There was never any Emily, and Ross and Rachel are very very close friends again. Rachel and Monica still live together, Monica and Chandler aren't dating yet.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As Ross made his way back to his apartment, he couldn't believe what had just hapenned. Rachel and Chris had announced that they were getting marred..married! He didn't want to believe it. He couldn't believe how much he missed her. Them breaking up had been the worst thing that ever hapenned to them. And knowing that it was all his fault made the pain so much worse, and as much as he tried to deny it, he was still deeply in love with her. He hid it well, he had been in love with her since high school, and always had to hide his feelings, not even Joey or Chandler knew. He had dated a couple times after they had broken up, but no one ever compared to Rachel. Everytime he saw her his heart skipped a beat. She always looked so damn beautiful, and she was so perfect. She was everything he had ever wanted, and he lost her to some guy she met a year ago. Every time they were together around him, it hurt so bad. Seeing them together made him want to cry. It hurt him so bad, and he wished so much that he could be in Chris's place. He could see how in love they were, and it was all too painful. And now he'd have to sit back and watch them get married.

"Look at the size of that rock on your finger, Rachel!" exclaimed Monica, after all the guys had left.
"Hey, if things between you and Chris don't work out, can I have the ring?" laughed Phoebe.
"Haha I know it's so beautiful, I'm so happy with him," said Rachel.
"No, seriously if things don't work out, I want the ring!" Phoebe said.
Rachel just shot her a look. She couldn't believe she was engaged. She was so happy with Chris. Sometimes she almost wished it was Ross she was engaged to, though. But things just didn't work out between them, they faught too much. Chris and her got along wonderfully, and Ross just thought of her as a friend now(or so she thought), which was fine.
"Did you guys think Ross was acting a little strange tonight?" Monica asked.
"No, he seemed fine to me," Rachel said.
"I dunno he just seemed kind of quiet,"
"Maybe he was just tired or something, I'm sure he was fine,"
"Yeah you're probably right,"
"Well it's getting kind of late, I'd better go. Congradulations again Rachel, see you guys tomorrow!" Phoebe waved and headed for the door.
"Bye phoebs"
