Thanks for the reviews. Read on to find out how Joey reacts.
Chapter four: Telling Mr. Green
Joey: Rachel what's wrong?
Rachel: It's just that I'm scared.
Joey: Scared of what?
Rachel: Losing you.
Joey wraps his arms tightly around Rachel and kisses the top of her head.
Joey: Oh, Rach that could never happen. I mean why would you ever lose me?
Rachel: Because I'm pregnant.
Joey: How long have you known?
Rachel: A couple days.
Joey: Why didn't you tell me before?
Rachel: Are you mad?
Joey: I'm mad that you worried about this by yourself for two days.
Rachel: I'm sorry I didn't know how to tell you.
Joey: Did you think I would get mad or something?
Rachel: I didn't really know how you would react.
She gets up off of his lap and stands in the middle of the room.
Rachel: What are we gonna do Joey?
Joey stands up from the chair a walks over to Rachel. He wraps his arms tightly around her.
Joey: Don't worry. We'll think of something.
Rachel: Joey?
Joey: Yeah?
Rachel: Will you come with me tonight?
Joey: Sure. Where do you have to go?
Rachel: To tell my father.
Joey: No problem. When do you have to meet him.
Rachel: In an hour and a half. So we have to hurry up and get ready.
An hour and twenty five minutes later Joey and Rachel are sitting in a fancy restaurant waiting for her father.
Rachel: There he is. Stay calm. Don't panic. Just stay calm.
Joey: Rach I'm fine.
Rachel: I know you are honey I was talking to myself.
Joey: Is he really that scary?
Rachel: Oh yeah.......Hi daddy.
Mr. Green: There she is. And who is this.
Rachel: Daddy this is Joey. Remember?
Joey: Good evening Mr. Green.
Mr. Green: Well let's eat.
Twenty minutes later Rachel still hasn't told her father.
Mr. Green: So how has my little girl been?
Rachel: Pretty good. I'm seeing Joey now and we live together, but we lived together before we started going out.
Mr. Green: So what's new?
Rachel: Not much.
Mr. Green: Will you two excuse me for a minute.
Rachel: Yeah sure.
Mr. Green leaves the table.
Joey: Rachel what's going on?
Rachel: Joey I just can't tell him.
Joey: Do you want me to.
Rachel: No he'll hate you enough as it is. I'll just tell him when he gets back.
Joey: Are you sure?
Rachel: Yeah I'll be fine.
A couple minutes later Mr. Green gets back from the bathroom.
Rachel: Daddy there's something I have to tell you.
Mr. Green: Yeah?
Rachel: I'm....I'm uh.....well I'm.....I'm throwing Monica a surprise party.
Mr. Green: Why did you have to tell me that?
Rachel: That's not what I have to tell you.
Mr. Green: Well what is it then?
Rachel: I'm pregnant.
Mr. Green: WHAT!!!!!!!
Rachel: Please don't be mad.
Mr. Green looks over at Joey.
Mr. Green: I'm gonna kill you!
Rachel: Dad no! Listen to me!
Mr. Green: Listen to you? Listen to you? You just told me that you were pregnant what more is there to say? Are you getting married?
Rachel: We haven't really discussed that yet.
Mr. Green looks at Joey again.
Mr. Green: You don't want to marry my daughter?!?!?
Rachel: That's not what I said.
Mr. Green is still staring at Joey.
Mr. Green: Do you want to marry my daughter or not?!?
Joey: Yes. Yes I do want to marry Rachel, and I hope that one day when we're ready we will get married. But I want her to be ready too. I don't want to force her into anything just because I got her pregnant, but I guarantee you that she will not go through a moment of this alone because I love your daughter more than anything.
Rachel is sitting in her seat with tears streaming down her face.
Rachel: Joey I want to marry you too. I really do. More than anything.
Joey: Well, I guess I can give you this then.
Joey pulls a small velvet box out of his coat pocket, and opens it up to reveal a one and a half caret diamond ring set in a sterling silver band with sapphire and emerald accents on either side. He gets down on one knee.
Joey: Rachel. Will you marry me?
Rachel: Yes.
Joey slips the ring on her finger.
Rachel: Joey? When did you get this? Cause after I told you I was pregnant earlier today you've never left my side.
Joey: I got it a week ago. I was planning on asking you tomorrow.
Rachel: You mean you were going to ask me before you knew I was pregnant.
Joey: Yeah. I love you Rach.
Rachel: I love you too Joey.
Joey kisses her deeply on the lips, and for a minute the whole world just stops.
Mr. Green sits back down to the table (he had left during the proposal to make a phone call)
Mr. Green: I booked the Plaza for you. Congratulation sweetie.
Well, there's chapter four. I hoped you liked it please read and review.
