Sam and Rachel immediately started covering themselves with the blanket that Sam had in his office. Diane stormed out of the office and then out of the bar. Ross just stood there stunned. He numbly looked at Rachel and said, "Rach, the others'll be here in about an hour. They're all looking forward to meeting this dream man of yours." Rachel was shocked that of all the people in the world to walk in on her and Sam it had to be Ross. She teared up and sadly said, "Ross, I'm so sorry. This should've never happened. Please don't go. I love YOU! Not Sam, and he knows it. Ross please, listen to me. I want US to work out. Tell me it will." Ross just shook his head sadly and said, "Whatever chance there once was, it's gone now. I'm sorry too Rach, but I have to go calm Diane down. She's my date tonight. I'll be back, maybe, with Diane so she can meet my friends. God, Rachel Karen Green, I loved you more than life itself. Bye, Sam. Take care of her, will ya?" Sam was kinda freaked, but he replied, "I will, you better not hurt my Diane, okay?" Ross just nodded, and he was gone. Rachel turned to Sam and said, "I'm sorry about that. I guess we both just lost our true loves, huh?" But Sam, being as stubborn as he is, just looked at Rachel, and said, "It's not too late. We'll get them back, that is, unless you want to give me and you a try."
"Sweetie, I truly enjoyed today. But, I think we both know that we had other people on our minds."
"You're right. It's just I really feel like you're such an awesome woman, and I wouldn't want an opportunity to be with you to pass me up without me knowing about it."
"Sam, Diane truly doesn't know what she's losing."
"Neither does Ross. He's a fool, but I know that he'll be back."
She kinda giggled, and Sam just looked at her funny and said, "What?"
"See, I have this friend, Phoebe who's a bit eccentric but still sweet. She says that Ross and I will never break-up permanently because we're lobsters, meaning that we're soulmates because once lobsters find someone they never let their mate go."
"I like that. I think that perhaps Diane and I could be lobsters."
"I think the two of you already are. Now we might want to go clean-up that lovely little mess we made outside before the rest of your workers get here not to mention your customers, they might be disgusted. Plus, we need our clothes."
They gave each other one last kiss, and then Sam put the blanket around his waist and collected his and Rachel's clothes. After they were dressed, Rachel helped him open the bar up for the customers who were probably wondering why the heck they weren't open yet.
Ross fled out into the street after Diane, who was outside crying. She just looked at Ross and said, "God, Ross I am terribly sorry that this happened. I didn't realize that Sam would ever do something like that in the bar. Well, at least on the bar. I feel so awful, I was trying to use you to get back at him, and then in the process our exes ended up destroying us." Ross replied, "Diane, it's okay, I was using you too. I love Rachel, but I get the impression that she loves Sam. But I really like you a lot, and I would love to spend some time getting to know you." She just reached up and kissed him hard on the mouth to a point where both were breathless. Then she looked at him longingly and said, "How about we go to my place for awhile, Rachel can work in my place tonight, I'm sure Sam doesn't expect me back this evening."
Then they kissed again, and Carla stumbled upon them, surprised at what she was seeing. She just said, "Hey, you idiot-the-funny-hair, what are you doing with her? You could do SO much better than DIANE! Even Sam learned his lesson about her." Ross just looked at the tiny, but loud, woman confused and said, "Um... I'm sorry. WHO ARE YOU?!"
"I'm Carla Tortelli, the one and only. Diane knows me as her worst nightmare though."
Diane just rolled her eyes and jumped in, "C'mon, Ross, let's go back to my place for awhile, and get our own revenge as planned."
Ross grinned, "Let's go, but let's get some dinner first, okay?"
"That sounds great."
"Good."
Carla shook her head and thought to herself, 'Poor sap, doesn't know what he's getting himself into.' She turned and walked into the bar only to come face-to-face with some blonde girl wearing a waitress's apron. She told the girl, "Okay, what's the deal? Who are you? And why are you wearing Diane's apron? Oh, wait, are you one of Sam's chicks?" Rachel eyed the small woman indignantly, and automatically disliked her and her haughty attitude. She replied hastily, "No, I am NOT one of Sam's 'women', but I AM working here for tonight since Diane is so angry with him."
"Oh, that explains it. Well, have fun... what's your name?"
"Rachel Green."
"Okaaaaaay... Miss Green."
Carla sauntered over to Sam and said, "I like her. She's a keeper. Is she good?" Sam shot Carla a look to kill, and looked over at Rachel-who was blushing, and he said, "Carla, let's go talk in my office."
Diane allowed herself to be led home by Ross Gellar, after dinner, of course. She knew they probably wouldn't do anything they'd regret, but gosh! She was extremely angry at this Rachel person for taking away the last smidgen of hope she had left to get back together with Sam. She knew in her heart that this was just a fling and it wouldn't last, but it still hurt her intensely.
Ross just couldn't believe he had let the love of his life get away because she was clubbing with his sister! Rather than the romantic week of fine dining and hopefully an engagement ring, he was stuck comforting the ex-girlfriend of the man who was now with the woman HE loved more than anything! He let Diane lead him inside her apartment, which smelled of cinnamon and apples. And they sat down and had pleasant conversation. He realized that she was actually VERY smart and they they had a lot in common. At one point, they were interrupted by the phone ringing, but Diane had said that it was nobody special, just a salesman. But Ross noticed she seemed a bit nervous about the call itself, and he wondered if it had anything to do with that jerk, Sam. He learned a lot about Diane that evening. She was an aspiring writer, and he admired her for having goals. He let himself momentarily think of Rachel and that her only goals in life were to do something with clothes. Diane kept thinking that this new man in her life would lean over and kiss her, but he never did. She realized that this probably had a lot to do with Sam's new hussy. So, acting on a whim of hormones and jealousy, she leaned in to kiss Ross HARD on the lips, and when he didn't break away, she pressed herself against him. Then there was a sound coming from the other side of the door,and then there was a knock on her door, and she heard Sam yell, "C'mon, Diane, open up! The doorman said that you're here! Please! I really need to talk to you, oh, and Rachel's here too." Hearing her name, Ross jerked away from Diane and fled to open the door. But Diane just calmly walked upto him and placed her lips back on his. 'What the hell, eh?," Ross thought.
That evening, The bar just didn't have the usualy bussle and busyness that it usually did. Norm and Cliff weren't even there yet. It was just a couple people waiting to get upstairs for dinner at Melville's. Rachel was in heaven here. There weren't many people to wait on, and they were extremely patient when she messed up the orders twice. She was making a ton in tips, mainly because the people told her that she prevented them from having to be waited on by Carla. Sam was getting ready to close the place for an hour or so, when a group of four walked in and demanded a table. Rachel was in the back, so he went over and said, "I'm sorry, but can this wait, I have some unfinished business that I need to take care of with this girl, and I'm afraid it can't wait. But if you would come back later, I'll buy ya a round of beers." The blonde lady shook her head vigourously and said, "This can't wait either, has a petite woman with lots of blonde layered hair been in here? She has green eyes. We're supposed to meet her here this evening and meet her new boyfriend or whatever."
Sam knew the description was a tad familiar, and it was proven true, when Rachel came out of his office and shrieked, "Oh You guys FINALLY made it! I've been waiting for an hour! Oh, everyone, (she motioned to Sam) this is Sam, he's the guy I told Phoebe about." Monica grinned and said, "Good job Rach! By the way, have you seen Ross today? He said he'd meet us here." Rachel looked flustered at the mention of Ross and Sam jumped in and said to Rachel, "Oh, is that the guy that walked in on us earlier with Diane?" Rachel shook her head nervously, this was not how she wanted to tell her friend that Ross had seen her naked with another man. But it was too late. Monica just stared at Rachel in shock and said, "You slept with HIM!? HERE?!? Rachel, that's disgusting! Was he good?" Rachel just shook her head, and she turned to Sam and said, "Can we use your office? Ross is her brother. I need to talk to Monica about this."
"Sure, sweetheart, I think I'll give Diane a call while you're in there."
"Oh, that's a good idea!"
Rachel turned to the gang, and asked them to join her in Sam's office. When they obediently followed her, she started explaining to them everything that had happened the night before and how Ross, not she, but Ross called the relationship. And how that morning, she was walking around when, on a chance, she happened to meet Sam, whom she liked immensely, but saw no future with him. The gang all agreed that they needed to find Ross and get him and Rachel back together as soon as they possibly could. When Rachel left the office, she heard Sam on the phone. He said, "Diane, sweetie, why won't you just answer my question? ... I know you're not MY sweetie anymore, but where's Ross? ... Rachel really, really, really loves him, and if he doesn't get down here back to her soon, he's going to regret it! ... How do I know? ... Because I know how it feels to regret letting the one person you love go. ... Yes, that's you! Geez, who'd you think I was talking about? ... Okay, I'll wait. ... Okay, I'll be right over with Rachel. Thank you sooooo much. Oh, and Diane, Maybe we should have a talk about our break-up as well. ... Good. Bye." Sam turned to Rachel with two evident emotions in his eyes: relief and love. But it was love for the woman whom he had just gotten off the phone with, not Rachel. He just looked at her and grinned, then he slowly said, "Well, baby, I think we're going to be able to get the two of you back together after all."
Rachel burst out into a set of fresh, elated tears. Then she just ran and hugged Sam -- tightly. Carla watched the two in awe, and then with a note of disappointment said, "Oh, does that mean that she's leaving, and Di-Di-Di-DIANE's coming back? Oh, Lord, I thought you were finished with that torture! Make it go away! Please!"
Sam just rolled his eyes, and kissed Rachel's cheek, and asked when she wanted to go get Ross. He wasn't too surprised when she said, "Now." Rachel, once again, rounded up Chandler, Monica, Phoebe, and Joey, and they all rode in the rental van to Diane's apartment. Sam and Rachel decided to go on in while the others just stayed in the car. Sam rang the doorbell, and then knocked on the door. Nobody answered. 'Hmm... that's strange,' he thought to himself. He screamed, "C'mon, Diane, open up! The doorman said that you're here! Please! I really need to talk to you, oh, and Rachel's here too." Then he realized that he had a key, so he just opened it up and walked in. They were both a little surprised to see Diane just about forcing herself on Ross, who looked like he was struggling to get away. Rachel fainted at the sight before her--it hurt to much. Ross tore himself away from Diane and said, "Damnit, what the hell are you doing? I LOVE Rachel! I thought I made that clear to you! What are you thinking?" Diane retorted, "You know you wanted it Ross! We kissed earlier and I didn't hear a single complaint! If you truly loved this woman, you would've had self-control!" Sam had a realization at that moment. He said, "Diane, you didn't tell Ross we were coming did you? You said that you thought that you and I had a chance to get back together! You lied, huh? Why Diane, why did you do this?"
By this time, Diane had whitened, and she did even moreso when Sam, yelled, "Goddamnit Diane!!! It's bad enough that you and I broke up! But did you HAVE to ruin these perfectly nice peoples' lives as well?! I TOLD YOU THAT I WANTED YOU BACK!! What more do you want? No, wait, I'm going to do what I want! I'm going to beat your head in!" Diane was white and Sam was red.
Ross, however, was on the floor kneeling by and reviving Rachel, who woke up and kissed Ross fiercely on the mouth, and said, "Never again, both of us, please! Let's just be together again, and forget this day! Please! Ross I love YOU! And I know that it's ME you love." Ross and Rachel were crying and he said, "Oh, sweetie, of course, but before anything happens again, I have one question for you: Rachel Karen Green, will you marry me and make me the happiest man ever alive?" Now Rachel was sobbing but she choked, "Yes, I will marry you!"
Sam and Diane watched the happy couple in utter awe. They had each done something that could have ruined their lives, but they were willing to forget it. Sam and Diane were so intrigued with the notion that they barely flinched when Rachel said, "Thank you guys so much. We'll drop by the bar tomorrow evening, but now we need to celebrate the right way, and get back to Chandler, Mon, Joey, and Pheebs. They're probably wondering what the hell happened to us." Ross agreed, and they kissed again. They left hand in hand. Sam looked at Diane tenderly, and said, "God, I want what they have." Diane looked at Sam with the same tenderness and said, "Oh, Sam, so do I." And they kissed, restarting the relationship that each thrived off so greatly.
The next day, Rachel woke up in Ross's arms. Phoebe had roomed with Chandler the night before. Rachel just knew that the events that had taken place the past two days had to be a dream, but then when Ross woke up, he reminded her that they were going to Cheers that evening to say bye to Sam and Diane. Then Ross got up and started rummaging through his bag. Rachel watched curiously as he pulled out a tiny jewelry box and got on one knee, and said, "Last night, the proposal was sort of a hurried thing. Today, now that I know what your answer will be, I'm going to do it right. I love you, Rachel! Even though we had some problems this week, I never intended to let you go. I was trying to throw you off from the fact that I had this week planned for months. The week that I would propose to you during Dinner on the U.S. Constitution in Boston Harbor. But that didn't work out. This incident has brought us even closer together, and I think we will always be grateful to Sam and Diane for it. But now I have the ring, and it's time this was said properly. You're my heart and my soul. I love you with my very being, and nothing can top that in my life. I will always love you, no matter what lies ahead, you and I can face it together. That is, if you're willing to stay with me forever. Rachel Karen Green, once again, will you do me the honor of being my wife, and make me the happiest man in the universe?" Rachel giggled and said, "I said yes once already, whatever made you think that I would say no? Of course I'll marry you, honey!" They kissed and Ross slipped the diamond and platinum ring on her finger." Ross just said, "Well, I guess we better head downstairs for breakfast. Then I have to go to work, but I'll be back by the hotel around 7 so we can go to Cheers together, okay?" Rachel nodded her head and the two prepared for the day.
That same morning, Sam woke up and realized that he was back in Diane's apartment, and that they were back together. He whispered, "YES!" But Diane was already awake, and she giggled at Sam's behavior. Sam was confused when she went in the bathroom and was sick. But she came back with a smile on her face. Sam noticed that she was practically glowing. She giggled again, and motioned for Sam to follow her to the den. He sat down on her couch and she sat beside him. She said, "Sam, the reason I was so upset at our break-up was not necessarily that of that I thought we wouldn't end up together, because I know we will. It was more of an issue of your being around for the next 7 1/2 months and after that." Sam looked thoroughly confused and said, "Huh? What's happening in 7 1/2 months? 'Cuz you can be damn sure that I'll be there during it...I think." Diane grinned and said, "God, Sam, You have no idea how hard it was to keep this from you the night we broke up! But we're having a baby! You and me, together. That's why I was sooo jealous that you had slept with another woman. Because I am carrying YOUR child!" A grin plastered itself across Sam's face. He said, "You and me? We're having a baby." Diane nodded excitedly. "Oh, Diane, sweetheart, that's FANTASTIC! I'm going to be a daddy, and you're going to be a mommy! This kid will be gorgeous with our genes in it! Wait 'til we tell the others about this!"
Later that evening, after a romantic dinner at a little Italian restaurant, Ross and Rachel headed to Cheers to say their farewells to the new friends that each had made. Sam and Diane were inside kissing when Ross and Rachel walked in. Rachel just said, "Aaaaawwww. Will you look at them, Ross. All made up like I knew you would be." Sam just grinned and said, "Hey, you're just in time! Diane and I were about to make an announcement to the bar, and I think maybe you guys should be a part of it, after all, if it wasn't for you, we may not have ended up together." Ross said, "Okay, man." They sat at the front of the bar and Rachel was gabbing away with Norm about how she 'Absolutely could NOT stay in Boston just to serve his beer, no matter what the payment."
Sam and Diane walked out of his office with a piece of paper in Sam's hands. They headed toward the steps and Sam yelled, "Attention, everybody! Diane and I have another announcement to make, although I'm sure you're sick of them by now." Carla looked at the two frantically, and Norm clapped his hands over her mouth, Cliff grabbed her hands, and Coach held onto her ankles so she couldn't go anywher or say anything. Diane continued, "As most of you know, well all except Carla, Sam and I got back together last night after realizing how much we love each other." Carla let out a strangled-sounding noise. Sam continued, "The thing that none of you know, however, is that Diane and I declared our love officially this morning by getting married." The bar let out a huge cheer for Sam and Diane. Carla bit Norm and let out a scream that could churn butter. So Norm grabbed her neck, because if set loose, she would kill Diane on the spot. Diane said, "Wait, everybody, there's more. Sam and I are expecting a child in 7 1/2 months." Carla started crying and saying over and over, "They're really together, Sam and that mullet-head are really together now. I hate her!" Rachel let out a shriek and ran over and gave the couple a huge hug, with Ross right behind ready to do the same thing.
Later that evening after hours of good conversation, Ross and Rachel bid Sam and Diane a fond farewell, and the promise to stay in contact after they left. So one couple went back to New York to prepare for a wedding, while the other stayed in Boston to prepare for a baby.
Don't worry, there's an epilogue to this that I'm trying to finish. Hopefully will be up within the month. Keep reading and reviewing! :)
"Sweetie, I truly enjoyed today. But, I think we both know that we had other people on our minds."
"You're right. It's just I really feel like you're such an awesome woman, and I wouldn't want an opportunity to be with you to pass me up without me knowing about it."
"Sam, Diane truly doesn't know what she's losing."
"Neither does Ross. He's a fool, but I know that he'll be back."
She kinda giggled, and Sam just looked at her funny and said, "What?"

Now Rachel was sobbing but she choked, "Yes, I will marry you!"
Sam and Diane watched the happy couple in utter awe. They had each done something that could have ruined their lives, but they were willing to forget it. Sam and Diane were so intrigued with the notion that they barely flinched when Rachel said, "Thank you guys so much. We'll drop by the bar tomorrow evening, but now we need to celebrate the right way, and get back to Chandler, Mon, Joey, and Pheebs. They're probably wondering what the hell happened to us." Ross agreed, and they kissed again. They left hand in hand. Sam looked at Diane tenderly, and said, "God, I want what they have." Diane looked at Sam with the same tenderness and said, "Oh, Sam, so do I." And they kissed, restarting the relationship that each thrived off so greatly.
The next day, Rachel woke up in Ross's arms. Phoebe had roomed with Chandler the night before. Rachel just knew that the events that had taken place the past two days had to be a dream, but then when Ross woke up, he reminded her that they were going to Cheers that evening to say bye to Sam and Diane. Then Ross got up and started rummaging through his bag. Rachel watched curiously as he pulled out a tiny jewelry box and got on one knee, and said, "Last night, the proposal was sort of a hurried thing. Today, now that I know what your answer will be, I'm going to do it right. I love you, Rachel! Even though we had some problems this week, I never intended to let you go. I was trying to throw you off from the fact that I had this week planned for months. The week that I would propose to you during Dinner on the U.S. Constitution in Boston Harbor. But that didn't work out. This incident has brought us even closer together, and I think we will always be grateful to Sam and Diane for it. But now I have the ring, and it's time this was said properly. You're my heart and my soul. I love you with my very being, and nothing can top that in my life. I will always love you, no matter what lies ahead, you and I can face it together. That is, if you're willing to stay with me forever. Rachel Karen Green, once again, will you do me the honor of being my wife, and make me the happiest man in the universe?" Rachel giggled and said, "I said yes once already, whatever made you think that I would say no? Of course I'll marry you, honey!" They kissed and Ross slipped the diamond and platinum ring on her finger." Ross just said, "Well, I guess we better head downstairs for breakfast. Then I have to go to work, but I'll be back by the hotel around 7 so we can go to Cheers together, okay?" Rachel nodded her head and the two prepared for the day.
That same morning, Sam woke up and realized that he was back in Diane's apartment, and that they were back together. He whispered, "YES!" But Diane was already awake, and she giggled at Sam's behavior. Sam was confused when she went in the bathroom and was sick. But she came back with a smile on her face. Sam noticed that she was practically glowing. She giggled again, and motioned for Sam to follow her to the den. He sat down on her couch and she sat beside him. She said, "Sam, the reason I was so upset at our break-up was not necessarily that of that I thought we wouldn't end up together, because I know we will. It was more of an issue of your being around for the next 7 1/2 months and after that." Sam looked thoroughly confused and said, "Huh? What's happening in 7 1/2 months? 'Cuz you can be damn sure that I'll be there during it...I think." Diane grinned and said, "God, Sam, You have no idea how hard it was to keep this from you the night we broke up! But we're having a baby! You and me, together. That's why I was sooo jealous that you had slept with another woman. Because I am carrying YOUR child!" A grin plastered itself across Sam's face. He said, "You and me? We're having a baby." Diane nodded excitedly. "Oh, Diane, sweetheart, that's FANTASTIC! I'm going to be a daddy, and you're going to be a mommy! This kid will be gorgeous with our genes in it! Wait 'til we tell the others about this!"
Later that evening, after a romantic dinner at a little Italian restaurant, Ross and Rachel headed to Cheers to say their farewells to the new friends that each had made. Sam and Diane were inside kissing when Ross and Rachel walked in. Rachel just said, "Aaaaawwww. Will you look at them, Ross. All made up like I knew you would be." Sam just grinned and said, "Hey, you're just in time! Diane and I were about to make an announcement to the bar, and I think maybe you guys should be a part of it, after all, if it wasn't for you, we may not have ended up together." Ross said, "Okay, man." They sat at the front of the bar and Rachel was gabbing away with Norm about how she 'Absolutely could NOT stay in Boston just to serve his beer, no matter what the payment."
Sam and Diane walked out of his office with a piece of paper in Sam's hands. They headed toward the steps and Sam yelled, "Attention, everybody! Diane and I have another announcement to make, although I'm sure you're sick of them by now." Carla looked at the two frantically, and Norm clapped his hands over her mouth, Cliff grabbed her hands, and Coach held onto her ankles so she couldn't go anywher or say anything. Diane continued, "As most of you know, well all except Carla, Sam and I got back together last night after realizing how much we love each other." Carla let out a strangled-sounding noise. Sam continued, "The thing that none of you know, however, is that Diane and I declared our love officially this morning by getting married." The bar let out a huge cheer for Sam and Diane. Carla bit Norm and let out a scream that could churn butter. So Norm grabbed her neck, because if set loose, she would kill Diane on the spot. Diane said, "Wait, everybody, there's more. Sam and I are expecting a child in 7 1/2 months." Carla started crying and saying over and over, "They're really together, Sam and that mullet-head are really together now. I hate her!" Rachel let out a shriek and ran over and gave the couple a huge hug, with Ross right behind ready to do the same thing.
Later that evening after hours of good conversation, Ross and Rachel bid Sam and Diane a fond farewell, and the promise to stay in contact after they left. So one couple went back to New York to prepare for a wedding, while the other stayed in Boston to prepare for a baby.
Don't worry, there's an epilogue to this that I'm trying to finish. Hopefully will be up within the month. Keep reading and reviewing! :)
