The Perfect Day....
Ross looked over at the clock. It said six am. He rolled back over and looked over to his left. It was their first Valentines Day together in over seven years, her golden hair fanned out over the pillow as she laid in perfect bliss.
Getting out of bed, he decided that he would make this the perfect Valentines day. He had a few ideas.what to do for his sweet Rachel. He tiptoed to the room where the crib was. His other valentine was fast asleep and cluching her beloved Hugsy. He could just stare at this beautiful creation all day. Hair of gold and dark brown eyes..the best of both of them..
Sighing he walked to the kitchen and started the coffee maker. Next he pulled out a pan and proceeded to make an omelet and bacon. The omelet had ham and cheese in it. Rachel usually would stop in at Central Perk on her way to work and grab a latte to go. Today he wanted to show her how much he actually loved her. She was already going to meet him for lunch on campus between classes and he had very special plans for tonight.
Emma was going to be at Sandra's, normally she would have stayed at Jack and Judy's, but they were already baby sittting the twins. Monica had planned a special first new home Valentine's celebration for her and Chandler consisting of cut up hot dogs macaroni and cheese and a new silk teddy.
Ross would start off with a carriage ride in Central Park, drinks at the Carlyle where Bobby Short would serenade them, dinner at the Plaza , then home and the true way lovers celebrate Valentines day. He had to make a mental note, he had to pick up a gift yet and a box of chocolate for his other little valentine .
Pulling out a bed tray, he lovingly poured a glass of orange juice in a crystal goblet. Next he arranged a napkin and plate with the steaming omelet and a bagel from the bakery. The finishing touch was a rose in a vase. He wrote a card quickly and stuffed it in the envelope.
Rachel looked over and noticed her fiance was gone. She could smell something coming from the kitchen. As she started to get up from the bed, Ross walked into the bedroom.
"Happy Valentines Day sweetie, " he said as he bowed down to kiss her.
"Is this for me?" she smiled sweetly. "Oh Ross, " she gushed.
"I already have my valentine and today she shall be treated like a queen, because you are my queen, Rachel." he said as he laid the tray in front of her. She smelled the rose and picked up the card.
"our love was written in the stars," Rachel reminisced what the special phrase meant. The very first time they made love was in the planetarium in the museum where Ross used to work. She had to laugh at the memory of them waking up and having school children and a nun looking at them as they laid naked under a fur skin. She leaned over and kissed him.
"I still can't believe after all this time , it's just me and you again." she said.
"I always knew this was the way it would end up. I never gave up on us Rach." he said as he moved the tray and climbed on top of her.
"As much fun as this would be Dr. Geller, we both have jobs to get ready for. So my darling am going to eat this lovely breakfast and then jump in the shower." Rachel said as she bit into her omelet.
Ross sighed and realized that a morning quickie was not in the cards. He walked to his closet and pulled out a dark blue suit and a blue sllk tie. Laying those on the chair, he pulled a white dress shirt and a pair of boxers with hearts with them. Rachel's little gift he reasoned.
Hearing the water from the shower, Rachel closed her eyes and tried to imagine the picture from the shower. If she couldn't make love this morning , she could always picture what she would be seeing tonight. His long , muscular legs and that chest where she laid her head at night. Those powerful arms that held her as he pressed his soft lips to hers. The tiny bit of a five o clock shadow that brushed up against her when he passionately kissed her. That fine ass and the part of him that truly belonged to her and no other woman. At that moment, she wanted to leap from the bed and head into the bathroom and join her lover in the shower. As she had told all her girlfriends, "the best I've ever had." A smile came to her face.
With a towel wrapped around his waist, Ross proceeded to get dressed. Rachel couldn't resist as he buttoned the shirt and she wrapped the tie around his neck. She could smell the cologne she gave him that she got from work. Ralph's new fragrance…sophisticate…Unmistakably a polo player was embroidered on the pocket of the shirt . Rachel smiled at the thought he was wearing the clothes that she gave him. Somehow that made him even more sexy to her.
Fighting her urges, she pulled a pink suit from the closet. It was something she bought on a whim. Usually she stayed away from pastels., but it was their day, a day for lovers, and she wanted the whole world to know she was engaged to the most thoughtful, sweetest man in New York. Following a shower, she dressed and pulled her hair up , looking at her watch she grabbed her briefcase and the two of them got into their car.For the better part of the morning, Emma would be at day care until Sandra picked her up. Holding Hugsy, she smiled and said her new infamous phrase, "How you doin?"
Ross just shook his head and laughed as he fastened Emma in her car seat. The day care center was right on campus and that would mean that he could drop her off and get to his classroom in time to start his ten o'clock class. Rachel climbed in the car and he dropped her off with a kiss and a promise to meet her for lunch.
Rachel entered her office and saw a dozen long stemmed roses in a vase . She picked up the card and smiled at the message.
Looking forward to our night of love,,, your little lobster...R
It was going to be a very special day.
