Sorry this one is so short, but the next one is longer. This is chapter 8 and now you are only two chapters away from being caught up to what I posted on the other site.

Ok so I think Rachel's Dr's name was Dr. Long. I could be mistaken but that's what I used here.

And as you know, with Friends, the one thing they always had confused was dates, mostly birthdays, well any t.v. show does, so they never really said when Emma's birthday was but I'm going to say she was born June 3rd, 2002. And it's April 2004 that I'm writing right now, just to clear that up.

So, please enjoy :)

Ross's hand turned the small knob and pushed the door open. His eyes scanned the waiting room. He found her sitting in a chair near the back by herself. As he made his way to her, he looked at the other women in the room. He passed by one young girl who looked scared out of her mind and like she didn't want to be there. Then he passed another woman who wore a smile that seemed like it was too big for her own face. Ross smiled as she placed a hand on her swollen belly. He could guess she was close to nine months.

Finally, He reached her and sat down next to her. He flashed her a smile and said, "Sorry. I'm a little late. A student had some questions."

She shook her head, "It's fine. It's been pretty busy today anyway so they haven't gotten to me yet." She sighed. "Should be anytime though."

Ross was relieved that he hadn't missed anything, "Emma with Molly?" Rachel nodded and Ross noticed that one of her hands was now laying across her flat belly. They sat in silence, as Rachel slowly rubbed her hand across her belly and Ross watched, smiling. He nudged her gently, "Hey?"

"Hmm?" Rachel turned to look at him.

He continued to smile and asked, "What do you want it to be? A boy or a girl?"

She grinned and was about to speak when a young nurse walked into the room. "Ms. Green?" She called, glancing around.

After Rachel was situated and the nurse had given him the "ok", Ross entered the exam room. Rachel smiled at him from her spot. He immediatly went to stand by her head, remembering the last time. They both fell into another comfortable silence and waited for the doctor. After a couple minutes, Ross remembered his question from before.

"Rach, you never answered me."

"What?" She titlted her head slightly to stare at him.

"Boy or girl?"

She laughed and shook her had, "Oh I don't care Ross. As long as it's healthy."

He laughed as well, "Well I know that. So do I." He paused and gave her loving smile, "But if you had to pick.."

Ross observed Rachel as she thought about what he just asked. She stared straight ahead and even bit her bottom lip a bit.

"If I had to pick," She started, "I guess a boy." She looked at him again, "You know since I already have Emma." Ross nodded and smiled again. "But." Her forehead scrunched up as she thought about it some more. "I've loved treating Emma like a princess! All the dressing up and just..I love little girls." She shrugged, "I don't know, Ross! It's too hard" Her head hit the back of the table and she closed her eyes.

Ross chuckled and reached for her hand, giving it a small squease. "I know." He agreed and kept her hand in his. "I know."

Before too long, the door opened again and Dr. Long appeared. She smiled softly and greeted each of them, "Hello Mr. Geller. Ms. Green. How's little Emma?"

Rachel grinned thinking about her daughter, "She doing great. Will be two in less than two more months."

"They grow up so fast." The doctor glanced at both of them before saying cautiously, "I have to say. I didn't expect to see you two back here so soon."

Ross shrugged and smiled, "Yeah. Well.." He trailed off not really sure what to say. Really, how could you explain there situation?

just smiled and gently patted Rachel on her shoulder before asking, "Ready to see your baby?"
