Okay so I know that alot of you didn't like how I kept Monica so angry, well I mean you think about it, she was only angry, for a few hours, its not like it went over days...and how I intended it to be was, that Monica was upset with her from earlier about just hanging up on her, because she knew something was 'up' and also, then Rachel showing up late (And I think we all know how Monica is with being on time) only made matters worse.

I didn't think Phoebe was 'bashing' Rachel, I kind of thought that seemed like the 'Phoebe-ish' thing to do...I guess something like that it heard differently in everyone's head, I intended it to come out kind of like her in TOW Ross' Wedding, when she was talking about Monica's cleaning problem, and Joey being 'gay'.

------------------

"Ross I...well what do you think I was doing here in the- the bathroom" Rachel tried to save herself.

Ross gave her a look and walked up towards her. "No Rach, what. Seriously."

"Ugh Fine. I was..."She then mumbles, "I was taking a test."

"What?!" Ross laughs to himself. "What kind of test"

"Okay...Um, Ross...lately" While talking Rachel began nervously playing with a strand of hair. "Ive, been think- kind of had a feeling that I- that I could be..."

"Yeah" Ross looked concerned, and placed his hands on either side of her arms.

"That I could be...Pregnant"

Ross was shocked. All of the pushing for a baby...it all made since. Rachel wanted to know where he stood on all of this. God he felt like such a jerk. The more he thought about it, the guiltier he felt. Rachel had thought she was pregnant, and probably scared, and Ross hadn't done anything to help her out.

"Are- Are you sure?"

"Pretty sure, but I don't know. I mean- I dropped the test in the trash when you walked in."

Ross looked at Rachel, who had tears in her eyes, and walked past her to the trashcan, he took a deep breath, bent down and looked at the EPT test that was sitting on top of the trash.

"Well" Rachel asked...afraid to her the answer.

Ross got up and made his way towards her, and then leaned in to kiss her passionately, and he broke the kiss Rachel stood there looking shocked.

"Emma is going to be a sister"

Rachel hugged him, and kissed him back, she then stopped abruptly. "And you're okay with this?"

"Do you remember when I said that only one of us was 'there' " Rachel nodded. "Now Im there too. Rach, honey its not that I never wanted the baby...I had just been set on waiting..But, I mean I didn't think I would be this happy...but I really am. I Love Your Rachel."

"Oh Ross...I love you too..."

They stood there in each other's arms for a little while longer. Rachel couldn't stop smiling. This certainly had turned out a lot better than last time. Well I guess they were better off in many ways than they were two years ago. Now they had security, and love...love that Rachel believed was there all along, but just needed something to bring it out again...and Ross had done that, when he pleaded with her not to go to Paris. He loved her...and she loved him too, more than anything in this world. They had created life together, in their beautiful daughter Emma, and now...now it was happening again. Rachel couldn't be happier.

As they made their way back to the dining room, everyone had already started eating, their dessert. They just stood there for a while smiling when Phoebe looked up...

"Hey! What happened to you guys back there...was there some...Lobster Love?"

Phoebe said in only the way that...well Phoebe could. Rachel chuckled to herself thinking about Phoebe's Lobster Theory. She looked up at Ross, and smiled at him, he returned and grabbed her hand, and locking his finger with hers.

Monica then stood up and smiled, nodding to Rach.

Chandler looked confused "Okay Am I missing something here..." He turned to Rachel "You calmed the beast!" He then noticed the look Monica was sending him. " Okay, well then...whose done with jokes...Id say me" he said raising his hand.

Rachel cleared her throat. " Ross and I are having a baby!"

Monica ran over and hugged her best friend. "It come out positive?!"

"Yeah" beamed Rachel.

"And Ross is-"

"Everything's great Monica! Everything is just Ugh, Its great."

Ross then leaned over and kissed the top of Rachel head.

Mike stood up, and clanked his glass. "Well I think this deserves a toast." Everyone who was left seated then stood up and raise their glasses "To Ross and Rachel, and the beautiful life they had created"

"To Ross and Rachel" Everyone else repeated, followed by a series of 'clanks'.

---------------
Ross and Rachel arrived at their apartment hours later; everyone was so excited to hear about the new baby that would be in their lives in about 9 months.

As Ross shut the door he put his arm around Rachel and led her to the couch. "Im really sorry for how Ive been acting lately Rach, I feel like such a jerk."

"Hey, No" Rachel began rubbing his knee "Its okay, because your happy now, and that's all that matters. Ross, I don't know what I would do if you weren't...well fine with all of this."

"Rachel this is amazing, we're going to have another baby! Im thrilled"

Rachel smiled, as a matter of fact she didn't think that she had stopped all night, she was just so happy.

"You know I was just thinking, about everything that has happened in these past ten years."

Ross looked at her, and grabbed her hand. "Yeah, things sure have changed, I mean this is always where I have wanted to end up, and it just took us a while to get here. Too bad we lost all of those years"

"You know what Ross, I wouldn't change a thing about our past."

"Really...not even when we bro-"

"I said I wouldn't change a thing, not you, your another story. What I mean was, Ross...I think in a way those years apart were teaching us a lesson."

"Yeah?"

"Absolutely. I mean after 7 years apart, I knew that you were defiantly the one for me Ross. I mean, Ive never loved anyone, the way that I love you. And being with other people made me realize how special what we had was."

"Im just sorry that it ended the way it did" added Ross

Rachel looked down. "Yeah, me too..."

Ross took a deep breath and decided to do, exactly what he should have done all those years ago. "Rach, I know I never told you how sorry I was, you know for all of that...hurting you was the last thing I wanted to do"

"Ross...its okay" Rachel pauses "Its okay now..."

"No Rach, its not. I mean if I thought we were on a break and all, but I shouldn't have slept with Chloe- god I was stupid."

"We both were Ross...what you have to understand about all of that, was that, I never thought of us being broken up. And- and even if I did, it still hurt me to see you- that you- that you could just move on from me just like that, at the time I thought what we had together, meant more than that. Do you know what Im saying"

"I was drunk and confused, and then, then I thought that Mark was there...and now the more that I think about it, I don't know I was just so stupid-"

Rachel cut him off. "Hey, stop. Do you know what we're doing?" Ross looked at her "We're actually talking this out...no fighting... after 7 years, we finally were able to do that. Ross we were both really stupid. But you know what, it's okay now...because I think we're past that...and ready to move on."

"You're right..."

They both just sat there for a while in the comfortable silence of the empty room. Rachel was defiantly shocked at the way that they dealt with this. She smiled a confident smile. Maybe things really would finally work out for them this time, at least that was the plan. They were both too scared to loose one another again.

Things were going to be okay.
