Here is my third chapter thank you for your reviews. Hope everyone had a happy new year. I'm gonna try writing different give me some feedback on what think is better. And BTW I didn't really mention this in the last Chapter but Monica and Chandler are a couple and living together. And Joey and Phoebe aren't they just live together. Enjoy.

Chapter 3

The scene is Ross's apartment or now Ross and Rachel's apartment(ugly naked guy's place). Rachel flops down on the couch tired from having to unpack all the boxes.

Ross comes over and starts to chuckle. "Tired"? Ross asks as he sits down next to her. She leans her head on his shoulder and sighs. "Like you wouldn't believe. How does Monica make you work so much while she just boss's us around?"

Rachel is surprised when he puts an arm around his shoulder and starts to rub it. But she enjoys it and snuggles up to him. "Do you wanna sleep your bed or pass out here?" He says sarcastically and is surprised when he feels her snuggle up more on him and shuts her eyes.

At that moment Phoebe came out just behind them and smiled. Then she whispers to herself "I knew it". Then she hears Joey say "Knew What?" That moment Rachel eyes shoot open and she moves to rub the sleep out of them.

Joey still not having a clue asks "What did you know?" She doesn't know how to respond "Um that we would be done."

Joey raises an eyebrow in confusion. "Well duh Monica planned it so we can have Rachel's welcome dinner." That moment Rachel turns her head. "I have welcome dinner?" Then Joey slaps his forehead. "Right it was supposed to be a surprise"

At that moment the phone rings and Ross goes to pick it up but puts it on speaker. "Hello" On the other side of the line is Chandler. "Hey man bring Rachel over for the surprise." Ross responds with "She knows So surprise is ruined." Chandler says "Let me guess you told her or Joey." Ross then responds with "Well it depends on which of us likes pizza and sandwiches more."

Chandler then hums for a few pretending to think. "Wow you made this such a difficult choice now." He says sarcastically. "But my guess is Joe." Then Ross says "Ding Ding Ding we have a winner" Rachel finds it funny starts to chuckle.

Chandler is surprised by the new voice. "Who is that?" Rachel responds with "Hey chandler it's me Rachel tell Mon we will be there in a few." Chandler says "No problem Rach just pretend to be surprised when you get here later. He hangs up.

Monica and Chandler's apartment

Monica is just finishing setting up the table and is putting the Lasagna. "Perfect." She says to herself. At that moment there is a knock on the door. "Come in"

Rachel walks in first followed by Ross, Phoebe and Joey then Monica says"Surprise." Rachel then puts a hand on her chest and gasps pretending to be surprised "Wow I am shocked thanks Monica it's so great thank you." Monica frowns not believing Rachel. "Joey told you didn't he." Rachel then says "uh huh".

Joey then puts Phoebe in front of him and slowly pushes her in front of him. "Look Mon I'm so sorry just don't take away the food." He says nervously. Monica then looks at what he's doing. "Joey are you Ok." He then pokes his head out and says "Fine why." Phoebe then turns her head to face him. "Why are you behind me then."

Joey then shrugs and says. "Well if Monica attacks your my first line of Defense. Plus if you do fight I wanna watch." He says mischievously while smiling.

Chandler then comes over. "Don't mean to sound like our bottomless pit friend over here." Gestures to Joey. "But are we gonna eat the food or just leave it on display." Monica then huffs. "Fine sit down but no desert for you Joe." Joey then looks down upset.

Ross comes over and pats his shoulder. "Don't worry Joe you can have mine." Joey then perks up and gives him a bear hug. Chandler looks at this "Now who's the gay one?" Ross then looks at him. "Well with that pink shirt still you." Chandler then looks down at the shirt and back to Ross. "You gave me this and said it was a guy's faded salmon." Ross starts to laugh "That's just what Joey said to me when he gave it." Joey then looks at them and responds "That's what my Mom told me."

Rachel then taps Ross's shoulder and he looks over. "Sorry But can we eat now I'm starving" she says because she hasn't had a chance to eat since they were so busy unpacking. They all sit down and soon everyone begins eating. After a while in silence Phoebe has and idea.

"So Ross how's Ben?" She asks nonchalantly and Rachel looks at him curiously "Who's Ben? She asks. Ross starts to get nervous "Well he is uh kinda of um my son." Rachel is surprised that he has a son then figured he must've have him when he was with Carol. She then responds calmly "Wow how old is he?"

Ross looks at her and is surprised with her response most women he said this to would be more uncomfortable. "He's about three months he's at Carols and Susan's." Rachel looks at him in confusion and realizes his mistake. "Susan is Carols uh partner."

Rachel nods her head "Oh what's it like being a parent?" Everyone looks at her because whenever this subject is brought up people tend to say things like "what are the odds" and then just try to avoid or change the subject.

Ross smiles and says "Well it's really amazing despite all the headaches he can give ya." He chuckles and Rachel can't help but giggle. "Why do you ask?" She thinks for a moment and says. "Well I don't know actually I guess since we're roommates now I should know so."

Ross nods and goes back to his food and so does she. Everyone just goes to their food and enjoying the rest of the evening.

Ross and Rachel's apartment

Ross and Rachel just get back from Monica's and they flop down on the couch stuffed from Dinner and desert. Rachel smiles and looks over at Ross "That was so good does she always cook like that?" He chuckles and responds "Yeah and you're gonna get invited to a lot more." She sighs "Man I'm gonna get so fat if she keeps this up."

Rachel thinks about the time she spent with Ross and his friends and smiles. "You wanna know something Ross." He smirks and looks over t her blue eyes "What" He says. "I never had a group of friends like you have. Most of the friends I ever had were all really shallow and only talked about shopping, men and sex."

They then just stare at each other getting lost in the others eyes. Subconsciously they both start to lean in but Ross yawns ruining the moment but Rachel laugh at this. "Now who's tired?" She asks teasingly then yawns herself. "Still you apparently." He says and both laugh st this.

Ross puts a hand on her leg "We should get some sleep." Rachel nods her head "Right yeah we each got a long day tomorrow." They head over to their rooms and turn to look at each other. "Good night" she says he then leans in placing a gentle kiss on her cheek but it's enough to send shivers down her spine. "Goodnight sweet dreams" He says with a smile and heads to bed. Rachel then puts a hand on her Cheek and smiles her dreams would be sweet indeed. With that she heads off in her room.

How was that please review and I hope everyone had a happy New Year.
