Hey! I have a problem. Well, not actually a problem, just something that I didn't want to happen to me. I realize that I have been writing a lot of R&R stuff lately, and while that is the area of this story that is attracting most of my readers, I really am more of a C&M person and now I'm worried that I may end up turning this story too much into R&R. So, I'm sure you may be disappointed, but I'm going to try and cut back and even this stuff out!

Okey dokey then, this chapter is dedicated to the first two people who answered my brain teaser last chapter, and amazingly both had the same answer!! So...here is the chapter dedicated to...Jenniferfan100 and Maeva!! Thanks to everyone who reviewed!!

I was so upset that no one from Friends won at the SAG awards! Oh well. Oh yeah, this chapter explains a lot about the last paragraph in the last chapter, and focuses mainly on that! (

Disclaimer: NO!! I DON'T OWN THEM!!

He didn't want to physically hurt her. He wanted to do something much worse. Monica was the love of his life, and he wanted to do something that was worse than hurting her, worse than raping her, worse than, killing her.

Over the years, it had become increasingly difficult to cope with their breakup. Richard was so upset that Monica dumped him, that he couldn't handle it. The whole situation had sent him flying over the edge, and his family and friends didn't know if he would ever be the same.

His attempted suicide had a much larger effect on him than anyone would have hoped. After staying in the hospital for weeks, thousands of appointments with doctors, psychiatrists, and therapists had been scheduled. All of them drilled into his head the one phrase he couldn't handle hearing again- death is not the answer.

No one could believe it. His daughter knew that Richard really loved Monica, and that he would be depressed, but she didn't expect her father, a man so much older, to actually try to kill himself. It was all so unbelievable, implausible.

Judy and Jack Geller knew about the suicide attempt, after all he was a close friend, but they chose not to ever tell Monica because they knew she would feel guilty about it.

Ever since the 'accident', Richard had been doing fine. He occasionally asked about how Monica was doing, but tried to be subtle about it. Once he heard about her dating Chandler, he immediately started to despise the man. Richard knew that the only reason Monica ever broke up with him was because she wanted children and he didn't. He scolded himself for not wanting them too, or at least pretending to want them.

That was the one thing Monica wanted. Children. It was also the one this Richard could have given her that Chandler couldn't. But now that she was pregnant, he know longer had an advantage over him. He tried to win her over a few times through the years, but always failed in the process. First it was just being friends who slept together, then it was a burger, then it was proposing, but to no avail. He just couldn't catch a break.

It killed him to see, or rather hear, about her being so happy. She had the great husband, the kid on the way, and the best friends in the world. Call it jealousy, it doesn't matter, he didn't want her to be so happy, at least not without him.

That's why he had to do it. He knew that hurting her by rape or something else wasn't the worst, eventually she would recover. Killing her would do no good, because then she would be happy in heaven. Then it hit him like a bolt of lighting, what are most important things in Monica's life? Her family.

"I've decided that I love you too."

"What?"

Her voice had calmed down to a whisper, so quiet that it was barely audible, "I figure, if God put us together so many times, after all these years, he probably wants us to be together. I realize that in the past, I've never loved anyone as much as I've loved you, and that no one has ever loved me the way you did. I realize that even though we've broken up, time and time again, for so many different reasons... clearly we are meant for each other."

Tears started streaming down her cheeks, and Rachel didn't care that everyone was watching.

With a high, shaky voice, teary eyes, and a sniff, she said, "And I was just too damn stupid to see it!"

By now she was breaking down in sobs and Ross gathered her in his arms.

"It's okay, everything will be fine."

She cried into his shoulder and whispered, "I love you."

"I love you too."

He was still devising a new plan, but he already figured out the basics. Get Chandler and the baby out of the picture. He knew it would be hard, but it had to be done. They were the only thing in his way from being with the one he loved. He didn't care how much it would hurt her to lose them; he just wanted her all to himself. (A/N: Self-centered bastard LOL)

FLASHBACK- THREE WEEKS AGO

When he heard from Jack that Chandler and she were unable to conceive, he was overjoyed. The fact that Chandler couldn't provide Monica with the one thing she wanted most gave him hope that she would leave her husband and come crawling back to him. That backfired when he found out that they were adopting from a girl named Erica Walker.

He knew that if there was a child in the picture it would make matters all the more difficult.

That was the first thing he did. At the time, Richard was still not evil enough to murder someone, so he did the next best thing. Have another person murder someone. Of course, they wouldn't know that they were actually committing a murder.

He went to Ohio to find this woman, and get her out of the picture. He had a friend in the police force and they were able to locate her apartment and where she worked. He also was able to find out from a secretary at her job, that she would get out around six o' clock. In order to carry out his immoral plan, he found a guy at a bar. His name was Will, and he had only been on his second drink. Richard bought him a few more and within minutes he became completely wasted. Grabbing the man he barely knew, he found the guy's car, shoved him in, and drove him to a street nearby where Erica would soon be walking.

He told Will that when he gave the signal, he should drive at full speed down the nearly deserted street in downtown Donsburg. It was a small town, so there would be very little pedestrians, except of course the one that was the main focus of this crime.

Will agreed, but not without a bribe of three hundred dollars from Dr. Burke. As drunk as he was, he knew how to make some money. When the signal was given Will pressed down on the accelerator and drove into Erica, and sped off into the distance.

Richard was not only responsible for the death of Erica and the baby, but of Will too.

After arriving back at the Marriot Hotel, they went back into Ross's room, because he never actually checked out of it. Rachel placed Emma in the crib provided for them and then turned to Ross.

After a few moments pause, the awkwardness in the air was becoming unbearable.

"So..." said Ross, stepping inches from Rachel.

"Well, I don't know what to say, I just, it's really weird, I just-" as Rachel started to babble Ross cut her off by leaning in and giving her a long overdue kiss.

When they decided to get back together they didn't even kiss; they had determined that it was better to take it slow. Now, they couldn't wait any longer. When their kisses grew deeper they grew hungrier, both knew what that would lead to.

Ross started pulling his shirt off when Rachel suddenly put her hand on his chest to stop him.

"Are you sure you want to?"

"I've never been more sure," said Ross, in between kisses on her neck.

"Ok," she gave in, it had been too long since they did this.

After stripping each other down, right before it all started and they crossed that line, Rachel asked, "Do you have a condom?"

"No."

But they didn't care.
