Summary: My idea of what could happen after Joey's "proposal"
Date: 9/17/02
Disclaimer: Not mine.
Author note: I have no clue if anyone every written a story of what they think happened after the season final. This is my first time writing and I have never read any "Friends" fan fiction. So, to those who have written something like this, I did not steal it, this is my own idea. Please enjoy.
Author second note: I do not know anything that goes on at the hospital after the baby is born. I have no clue how long the mother and the child have to stay in the hospital or where the baby stays, so if I get something wrong I just want to say I'm sorry for the incorrect information.

Joey is on the floor holding Ross's ring in his hand and Rachael just said that he would marry him.
Joey suddenly forgot that this wasn't his ring, it was Ross's, and said, "Really?" Rachael nodded her head, "You'll marry me?"
"Yes, I will love to marry you!"
Joey jumped up and kissed her, but suddenly there was a little voice inside his head saying, "Joey, this is not your ring. If you want to be together with Rachael, you must be honest with her." Joey pulled away.
Rachael looked at him and noticed an odd look on his face, "What's wrong Joey?"
Joey sighed and said, "This isn't my ring."
Rachael gasped and said, "It's not?"
"No, it fell out of Ross's pocket." Rachael buried her head in her hands and started crying. Joey sat down on the bed and put an arm around Rachael, she shrugged it off, "Hey. Come on now. Ross wants to marry you."
Rachael misinterpreted that for, 'Ross wants to marry you and I don't' and she cried even louder.
Joey had no clue what to do. Whatever he did it seemed to be going wrong, "What's wrong?"
"I don't want to marry Ross!" She cried out.
"You don't?" Joey wondered.
"NO! I want to marry you!" she sobbed out too quickly to stop herself from saying that.
"You... what?!" He looked at Rachael. "But you told me you didn't love me."
"When I moved out of your apartment," she said still crying a little, "I realized that I do love you."
"You do!? You really do!?" Joey said a little too excited. Rachael just nodded her head and Joey kissed her passionately. Joey, once again, pulled away and went to the door.
"Joey! We're are you going?"
"Just making sure we have a little privacy." Joey opened the door and put something on the door.
Ross came around the corner and said, "Hey Joe." But Joey didn't hear him and went back into the room and closed the curtains around the room. Ross had no clue what was going on. He walked closer to the door and read a sign on it saying: 'Please do not disturb if not necessary.' Ross knew at that moment he was too late. He put the flowers on the floor and left.
Back inside the room...
Joey dimmed the light.
Rachael laughed a little and said, "What are you doing?"
"Setting the mood," Joey answered her. He walked over to the chair in the room, moved it closer to Rachael's bed and she moved to sit at the edge of her bed. Joey grabbed her hand, "This isn't really the way I pictured it, but I guess it doesn't matter as long as we're together," and he lifted her hand to his lips and kissed it. Rachael gasped. She had no clue that Joey was ever really this romantic.
Joey took Rachael's other hand and said, "All my life I never really did believe in love. Then there was you. I know I loved you from the first time when you ran into the Pub with your wedding gown on, but I was blind and didn't notice the feeling of it until the day you moved in with me. I know that you're the only one for me and I was wandering if you..." he pushed the chair away from him, got down on one knee, "Rachael Green," he took one hand and took a black velvet pouch from his back pocket, "would give me the greatest honor of being my wife," as he said this he deposit the ring onto his other hand and held it out to her.
Rachael gasped. She had no clue that Joey had already bought a ring. She then began to think that he had this for a while, for someone else before, but when he turned the ring at an angel she could see an engraving on it saying, 'Joey *heart* Rachael.' She once again gasped and all thoughts left her mind and she just joyfully said, "I love you Joey," she ran her fingers through his hair, "Of course I will marry you!"
Joey jumped up and kissed her passionately, this time allowing the kiss to go a bit longer then the other times.
When they pulled apart Joey slipped the ring onto her finger and for the first time, she got a good look of it. It was a heart shaped diamond with little diamonds half way around the band.
"It's beautiful Joey," Joey was about to say something when she said, "but when did you get this, how did you know that I would say yes?"
Joey answered by saying, "I bought it the very first day I realized that I love you," Rachael gave him a questioning look, "About a week after you moved in with me." Rachael just gave a silent 'oh' and smiled. "And besides, I knew you were the one for me, and if you didn't say 'yes' then well..." he paused, "I really don't want to think about what would happen if you said no." Rachael smiled and kissed him again.
Rachael pulled back and said, "What about Emma?"
"What about her? She wonderful, I love her too."
Rachael smiled once again and said, "No, I mean where are we going to put her. Your apartment is way too small for the three of us."
"Not to worry, Joey's got it all under control. There's two apartments that are open.
One in our building which is bigger then the place I have now, and there's one in Ross's building."
Rachael laughed a little, "You really have everything all planned out." She looked over at her clock and saw what time it was, "I hate to say this Joey, but visiting hours are over, if they find you in here, they aren't going to be happy."
"I got that all under control too." He kissed her forehead and said, "Just lie down." Rachael did so. Joey removed his shirt to revel an undershirt and he started to undo his belt.
Rachael sat up, "Joey! We can't do that yet, I have to wait a few weeks!"
Joey looked confused and then said, "I know that and I can wait," he sat down on the bed and started to take his shoes and socks off, "It won't be easy, but I can wait." He lied down on the tiny bed with her, "But tonight all I want to do is to hold you," he said with open arms. Rachael put her head down on his chest and his arms went right around her.
"I love you," Rachael said again.
"I love you too," Joey said as he kissed the top of her head. Very soon, they were asleep.
