"Moving Forward"
This is my first attempt at writing a fic, so Im sorry if it ends out really horrible.
Summary- Basically Ross and Rachels life after the final starting when she moves in with Ross.
Rachel walked aimlessly around the empty apartment that she had shared with Joey for several years. It was like an entirely different place now that Joey had gone to Hollywood. As she took one last walk around her room, she smiled to herself remembering the night that Emma was conceived. While at the time it came as much of a shock, thinking back on things it was probably her fondest memory from living in this apartment.
"Ya ready to go Rach?"
Rachel looked at Ross who came over and wrapped his arms around him "Can't Wait."
And now she was leaving. Okay, so it wasn't as if she wasn't sad to move out, she was, but she was moving on to something that she could confidently say to herself..was better.
It had been a month since Rachel had 'Got off the plane', and she now felt confident that things with Ross were really going to work out this time. It was almost as if they had never broken up, as a matter of fact they hadn't even discussed what happened during their first failed relationship. But Rachel knew it was coming...they couldn't run from the past forever..
Only this time, she was willing to work it out. It was worth it.
"I'm so glad we're doing this." Ross said while draping his arm across Rachel's shoulder.
Rachel was re-moving into Ross' apartment. This was a big step for Rachel this time around, as she didn't want to screw things up.
Rachel smiled and kissed his cheek "Yeah me too" she paused and thought, "This is going to be good for Emma too."
"I know. I'm just so glad you both didn't go. I was thinking how hard it was even for Emma to love over here most of the time with you, I couldn't imagine not even being in the same country."
"I don't know what I was thinking...I couldn't imagine leaving you now. I feel horrible over that whole thing."
Ross spun her around to face him. "Hey, enough of that...you were going to live out a dream, I understand."
"No Ross, I was going to leave you, the man I don't think I ever stopped loving, and take his child away from him. I'm just horrible. But no, you know what? Paris, yes it was going to be a very exciting experience for me...but a dream? No. This...us, together again...right now, this...this is all my dream."
And it was. A month ago, she never thought she would be here right now; it was the furthest thought in her mind. But she was happy. Maybe the first time she was truly happy in years.
"Now come on lets go."
Rachel grabbed Ross' hand and led him to the door. She took once last glance around the barren room...and turned out the light switch one last time. As he as Ross began to walk down those famous steps out of the building Rachel had spent ten wonderful years of her life in, she smiled to herself and said...
"This is it...I'm really moving on."
