And thanks Elizabeth. you rock too, hon ;). I don't know if you noticed, but your story has been on my favourite list ever since I read it :)
Chapter 6. "There's a thin line between love and hate"
Once again Ross was having a restless night. Every time he closed his eyes flashbacks from school and about what happened now came running back into his mind. He now realized that he had been totally unreasonable. They were teenagers back then for God's sake. Of course Rachel had changed. She wasn't like that anymore.
"What have I done?!" Ross whispered and shook his head.
Then he got up from his bed and put on his jacket. He didn't even bother to change out of his pajamas. He just knew that he wanted to find Rachel more than anything.
He had no idea where she could be so he just searched from the places he had seen her, but she was nowhere to be found. Ross then called many hotels asking if someone named Rachel Green had a room there, but again no luck. Ross didn't wanna give up, but he felt like he had to. This was New York city for heaven's sake. One of the biggest cities in the world and she could be anywhere!
"Why do I even bother... Yeah so maybe I was a little harsh, so what?! It's Rachel Green! She was as harsh to me back in high school." Ross thought to himself, but it didn't make the guilt go away.
Ross returned back to his apartment and was surprised when he found a note in front of his front door. He slowly picked it up.
On the envelope it said "I'm sorry" with big letters. Ross opened the front door and walked into the living room. He sat down on the couch and just stared at the envelope in his hands. After a long while he finally decided to open it.
(author's note: Thanks for the idea Rachel :)! I kinda used it after all. *LOL*)
Inside the envelope Ross found 10 000 $ cash. Nothing else, not a note or anything. He immediately knew that Rachel was behind this, but that didn't make him any less confused.
"Why would she give me the money back?" Ross whispered staring at the money in his hands.

Two years have passed
It was very dark as Rachel walked on the street. She didn't know where she was and she couldn't care less. She just walked without a destination. Her mind went back to that day two years ago when she decided to get direction to her life. Has she gotten any!? Well she now had a job, which she had gotten just a week ago. She was a little nervous about it though, 'cause the job she had gotten was very close to the place where she had met Ross again, but she didn't let it bother her too much. Since what are the odds for her bumping into him again. She now also had a place to stay. So you could really say that she was doing very well, but actually in a way she was now more lost than ever. Every night her mind wondered back to that terrible night with Ross,
"...Nobody could ever love someone like you! I bet you're not even capable of loving anyone." he had said and he had been right. She didn't deserve to be loved. She had really been terrible in high school. She had been so shallow judging people by the way they looked and being so mean to them.
"Not anymore!" Rachel had promised herself. "I won't judge anyone before I get to know them!"
Everyday she kept thinking of Ross and even though he had said all those mean things to her she wasn't mad at him. He had actually opened her eyes.
She still could feel his skin in her fingers sometimes and that feeling made her ache.
"God his skin was so soft." she closed her eyes and imagined him there smiling at her. Then she shook her head trying to get the image out of her head.
"No! What am I doing? I have to forget about him!" she cursed, but who was she kidding. She could never forget him. She could never forget his beautiful smile, his brown puppy dog eyes and his soft skin...
Ross was still working at the museum. He sometimes couldn't help but to wonder what happened to Rachel after she left from his place that night. Was she ok... Has she met someone who loves her more than life itself. The thought of her being with someone made him sad, but why? She meant nothing to him...Right? The warm breeze from the living room window gave Ross a feeling of deja vu. Again he could feel her warm heavy breath against his chest. It drove him wild. Sometimes when he looked up in the sky he couldn't help, but to recall the blueness of her eyes and once again he was lost in his peaceful daydream.
"Ross stop this right now! She's gone! It's been two years!" Ross shook himself awake from the dream.
Rachel was now working at the coffee shop next to the museum of natural history. She had never been inside of that museum, but she admired the building every time on her way to work.
"Someday..." She thought. "Someday I'll go inside."
Ross never wanted to get his coffee from anywhere else, but Central Perk. They served the best coffee in NY. Now, however, he was desperately longing for a cop of coffee and he had no time to go all the way to Central Perk. So he decided to check out the coffee place next to the museum.
"A cop of cino!" he smiled and laughed at his own stupid joke.
"Very cleaver." The waitress smiled and gave him a cappucino.
"Thanks." he smiled and gave her the money.
Suddenly Rachel walked from the back room and smiled. "Hey where do I put..." She started but trailed off after noticing Ross standing there almost right in front of her.
Ross couldn't believe his own eyes. He was so shocked that he accidentally dropped the coffee cop in his hands.
"OH MY GOD!" was all he got out of is mouth as they kept staring at each other.
When I fall in love
It will be forever
Or I'll never fall in love
In a restless world
Like this is
Love is ended before it's begun
And too many
Moonlight kisses
Seem to cool in the warmth of the sun
When I give my heart
I give it completely
Or I'll never give my heart
And the moment I can feel
That you feel that way too
Is when I fall in love with you
(Song by Celine Dion - When I fall in love)
