Need you here by my side - R&R

Rachel peered out of her bedroom window at Joeys apartment, She had been living back here now for 2 months.

Emma was asleep in her crib, sleeping peacefully like an angel.

She looked across to Ross's apartment, it was just across the road on the right end.

She wished things would have worked out with her living over with him and Emma, It would have been like they were a real family, Apart from the fact that they weren't really.

How could they be? They weren't a couple anymore, just friends who had a child.

Some days she would think that if they hadn't of ever gone on that break, they wouldn't have been so complicated, they could have just been a family and be in love like they used to be.

But she knew it was too late to go back, too much had changed now and now that they were living apart, they would probably move on.

She heard the cries of her daughter, She was now awake.

'Morning Emma' She said leaning over her crib to pick her young daughter up.

Emma was reaching her first birthday soon, It was hard to believe that she hadn't been a part of Rachel's life forever.

Rachel admired her daughter, Her smile beaming up at her.

She had Ross's eyes.

She had Ross's mouth.

She even had Ross's feet.

She loved her daughter more than anything, But she felt that whenever she saw Emma, She was reminded of Ross and the fact that she was still very much in love with him, even though she tried to deny it.

'Lets get you some breakfast' Rachel said to Emma who was now pulling on her mothers flowing hair.

Today was Valentines day.

Even this reminded Rachel that she didn't have Ross's love anymore, She remembered their first valentines day together.

How romantic that evening was.

This was one if not the best night they ever shared together, They were so connected that night, more than Rachel had ever been with a man.

The music was playing as they made sweet music themselves, almost sharing the same heartbeat.

'I want to spend every valentines day with you' Ross had said to her, Before tickling her neck as he would always do to make her feel relaxed and comfortable.

'We'll always be together' Rachel said, Feeling confident that they would.

That night had meant the world to each of them, It had only been a matter of months of them being together as a couple but they felt sure enough to say that they would always be together.

Why would the world be so nasty and make them break up just a year after? Rachel couldn't understand.
