First Friends fic so be nice
Rachel was happily married again to Ross with their little girl Emma but something was missing and Rachel couldn't figure out what?
"Come on Rachel, Monica is going to kill us if we don't get to the twins first birthday party on time." smiled Ross picking up Emma.
"Coming." she sighed.
She grabbed her coat and they made their way out of their apartment.
When they got to Manica and Chandler's apartment they were greeted by Monica, Chandler,the twins,Ross's mum and dad, Chandler's mum and dad, Phoebie and Mike.
"Where's Joey?" asked Rachel and then wondering why she wanted to know.
Monica sighed."I don't know and his mobile phones turned off!"
Chandler hugged Monica."He'll be here soon, Joey wouldn't miss the chance of having free food."
Rachel sighed, why was she so dissapointed that Joey wasen't here?
Later that day everyone was sitting in the living room singing happy birthday to the twins.
Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday to you
Happy bairthday to the twins
Happy birthday to you!
Rachel scanned the room again for Joey but he still wasen't here.
Monica blew out the candles and everyone clapped.
Suddenly the lights went out and it started pourind down of rain outside.
"Must be thunder." sighed Ross.
"I think it's nice." smiled Phoebie.
"Let's cut the cake shall we?" sighed Monica.
Everyone ate their slice of cake and settled down on the sofa singing.
Suddenly they were suprised when the front door opened to reveal a very tired, battered and bruised Joey.
"What happened to you?" asked Monica slapping some frozen peas on his eye.
Only Monica, Rachel, Phoebie, Ross and Chandler were in the kitchen wanting answers from Joey.
Joey laughed a little."Got mugged."
Everyone went oh and Monoca said they should go and enjoy the party whilst she patched Joey up.
Rachel was the only one who didn't leave.
"Rachel i'll be fine." smiled Joey.
"I know but i just want to stay." she replied.
"Stay here Joey and rest for a while, i've got to look after the twins." sighed Monica.
"That's fine. Go and enjoy your self." he smiled.
Monica returned his smile and left the kitchen leaving Rachel and Joey alone.
"So why are you so worried about me?" asked Joey.
"I don't know... Maybe it's because i care about you.... I honestly don't know."
Joey got up from his chair and hugged her.
Rachel leant into his embrace savouring his touch. She didn't know why but her heart was beating rapidly and she thought she was on fire.
Then she did sumething totally unexpected, she kissed him.
Joey was surprised but soon returned the kiss and pushed her to the wall.
Rachael started undoing the buttens on his shirt but Joey stopped her.
"We can't."
"Why not?"
"Your married to Ross."
"But i want you."
Joey sighed, he was never good at rejecting people ecspecially when it came down to Rachel.
"Fine but we have to wait until after the party."
"Or we can make an excuse that you have to go home and i volunteer to look after you."
"Sounds good to me."
"I love you Joey!"
"I love you too Rachel!"
