Ch.1
The day that makes their lives complete
It was 4:00 Nickey had awoken to the sound of her alarm she quietly tip toed into
living room. She looked out the window to see her father getting ready for the wedding he
noticed her and smiled, she smiled back. She took in a deep breath this was one of the
happiest days of her life. Her parents were finally tying the knot. Her family had been
through so much and she loved them so much. She could remember being little and going
places with her mom and dad. Since she was the first born between Ross and Rachel she
was the golden child. She was the one with the first steps first to ride a bike, and she'd be
first for everything else, so on some level she was the reason the family stayed together.
Their family would've been perfect except for the fact of her parents but when she looked
at them she knew what she saw was true love. Her parents would kiss and it wasn't gross
to her, it was what she wanted when she grew up.
She was also very close to her older step brother Ben he had been about three and
a half years older than Nickey. They talked all the time, he loved spending time with her
she was his baby sister. They helped each other out with girl and guy problems. They
could talk to each other about anything. Ben was also very protective of her.
Hey, Emma
Morning Nickey," she mumbled as though she wasn't quite up yet, "What are you
doing up so early?"
" I was just thinking about today, do you think dad will really go through with it
this time?" she asked even though they all knew the answer, " It's just I've always wanted
this perfect family and the last thing I need to check off is mom and dad getting married"
Emma yawned then replied " I've had the same dream since ... forever, they've
been off and on again. Besides even if they don't we still have each other."
The two of them huddled close together under the blanket to watch there father
nervously pace the floors with a smile now and then. About an hour passed, Emma and
Nickey had fallen asleep right there by the window. Rachel had walked in and noticed the
girls curled up on the couch, she smiled as the images re surfaced in her head. There had
been three very important day in her life and today makes four, she thought. Today my life
is complete. She entered Monica bedroom again to grab the dresses for the girls. They
were almost exactly like Monica's bridesmaid dresses, they had little shells scattered about
them and each daughter had their own unique hair piece. Emma was perfectly shaped with
shells and little flowers arranged neatly into a heart, on the other hand Nickey's was mixed
fashionably to create an unperfected shape. Nickey had sprinkled hers with glitter, it added
a perfect touch. Everyone had said she was just like Rachel in so many ways. Rachel
woken the girls up and sent then to get dressed.
At Ross' he was already dressed, he sat down on his couch to think things over
one last time. He had decorated the Church in red roses since, Rachel had said she didn't
want lilies after the last incident. While thinking of this the painful memory of that day shot
into Ross' mind. He remembered writing the note to Rachel telling her how much he loved
the kids and how he was so sorry for leaving. The fight when he returned home came next.
He remembered it clearly it was almost like the we were on a break fight except this time
it contained Nickey and Emma. He remembered Emma being so young she instantly sided
with Ross, she was daddy's little girl, and Nickey, two years older siding with Rachel. His
mind slowly let that memory go as he realized today would be the happiest day of his
entire life, this would make his life complete. He dialed the phone he couldn't wait till five
to see her, he had to at least hear her voice.
" Hey sweetie"
" Hey"
" I love you more than anything in the world."
" You love me more than mom"
At this point he knew he was talking to Emma. Emma sounded a lot like Rachel,
that was the only thing the had in common. " Can I talk to mommy"
"Dad, I'm twelve years old I think you can call her mom"
There was a soft laugh in the background, he knew it was hers, he knew her laugh
by heart because that meant she was happy. "Hello"
"I love you"
" Ross, I love you to but I can't see you till five o'clock"
You can't see me"
" Ross, you're giving us bad luck"
"I don't think we could have more bad luck, you do realize this is the third time
we've been trying to live happily ever after"
"We sound pathetic"
" Well, this time it will be one hundred no one billion percent real"
"You promise"
"I promise"
" I love you, Mr. Gellar"
" I love you soon to be Mrs. Gellar."
She hung up the phone. "Mrs. Gellar, It has a nice to ring to it" but inside she was
thinking FINALLY! It what who she always wanted to be, she knew that sooner or later it
would come true.
There was a quick knock on the door. It was Monica, she was the mother of the
group, always keeping things clean and keeping the others happy. She was also Rachel's
best friend of all time and now she was Monica's made of honor. Rachel had heard her
knock but decided not to answer as usual. "Rach, open u-" The door swung open and in
walked Monica. "Why are you dressed?'
"The girls are in the bathroom right now, I figured I get dressed when they were
done"
"Well they better hurry up."
"Monica don't rush them we have plenty of time, besides I want them to look
perfect"
"You do realize this is your wedding day right"
"Yea but this is just as important to me as it is to them:
Yea, right"
"It is important to us"
Both of them turned around to see the girls. Emma was perfectly in place with her
hair up and curly. Nickey was beautifully dressed with her hair in a messy French twist.
Monica and Rachel both started to cry. The girls stood there, they looked at each other
and smiled. They both new that they looked perfect.
"You are the cutest nieces I have"
"You guys are, are, beautiful"
"We know, but thank you" The girls had their mother's sense of humor and there
fathers manners.
"Hey girls don't tell Aunt Phoebe I said that"
They all laughed and the girls agreed. A million thoughts were going through their
heads. Rachel was so happy with everything she was taking it all in. Emma wanted to get
to the church and she was very cautious with how she looked. Nickey, well Nickey was
thinking of how blessed she was. They all had one thought it common though today was
the day each of their lives would be complete.
At the church Ross had prepared the church beautifully with Roses and now he
was on to checking for everything. The halls were decorated with deep red colors and
twinkling white lights. In the lobby there was a picture of Ross and Rachel's Engagement
picture, it was perfect Ross was in a Red Sweater and Jeans, Rachel was in a red silk shirt
and Jeans. . Ross loved that picture he had a picture of it on his desk at work along of the
family picture, that was taken that same day. The family photo conceited of all of them on
a deck. Nickey was sitting with her legs crossed over hanging off the deck, she was
wearing a red see-through shirt with a spaghetti strap shirt underneath. Behind her was
Rachel with her arms around Nickey. Next to Nickey was Emma, she had a short sleeve
T-shirt on with a silver stripe on it. Nate was laying on both of their laps, he had a red
long sleeve shirt with Polo written in silver. Ross was behind Emma with his arms around
her and Rachel. They looked like the perfect family even though they been through so
much. Ross moved on from the Lobby to Find Chandler and the kids. He entered a room
to find chandler with Nate and Daniel who were wrestling with him.
"Guys come on stop it" Chandler said with the sound of annoyance in his voice.
"Nate come here" Ross said to his son, who was seven and a half.
"Dad!"
"Nathaniel come here right now" he hated to use his full name but Nate would
always listen when you did.
"Fine"
Ross kneeled down to be at Nate's level. "Please behave today, this is very
important to me and mommy. We're all officially a family today. I love you Nate so please
don't make me yell at you"
"I'm sorry daddy this is special to me too."
Ross stood up " Okay, I gotta go call Rach and see when she's coming because I
don't want to run into her."
Chandler was still wrestling with Daniel, "and tell Monica to come and help me
with her son."
Ross just laughed, Chandler had matured a lot since Daniel came into the picture
but he couldn't yell at Daniel. He loved his son to much to stay mad at him for more than
five seconds. Ross looked into the room one last time. Nate was now playing a video
game on the couch. He looked so grown up in his suit. Phoebe had gotten up early to do
his hair in little spikes and she helped him get dressed. His golden tie that matched the
girls dresses was perfectly done, and he had a red rose pinned to his suit. "Dad, I want to
go with you"
"Okay, get on."
Nate jumped on to his back and they were off. Ross had found a phone. "Monica
can I talk to Rach"
"She's getting dressed why?"
" I just wanted to know when you guys were coming."
"We're coming as soon as Rachel gets dressed."
"Okay tell her I love her'
"me too" Nate said from the background.
"I will, bye"
"Bye"
Monica hung up the phone and started to get the girls finished. She got them all
sitting in the living room. In the big chair sat Katelynn, Monica's daughter. Next to her
was P.J. , short for Phoebe Jr., They were best friends. Nickey was on the couch sitting
next to Emma. Next to Emma was Phoebe. . Sitting on the floor was Phoebe's youngest
child, Joseph, even though everyone called him little Joey (you can guess who the father
is). Sitting Next to Joseph was Zachary, Rachel and Ross' youngest child. He was barely a
year old. Maddie, short for Madalynn , was holding Zack. She was Phoebe oldest child she
was around six, she usually hung out with Daniel and Nate.
They were all sitting around talking when the bathroom door opened and out
walked Rachel in a sparkling dress.
"How you doin?" said little Joey.
They all gave a laugh and Monica walked up to Rachel, "Rachel you look
beautiful."
"I know"
"You really look good" Phoebe added in.
"Better then you guys,"
"No one can" said Monica.
"Well, I think we all look the best on our wedding day." Phoebe had become so
much more serious since Joey had left her.
"Thanks pheebs"
"Okay, I'll go grab one of the Limos you guys come down when you got
everything,"
"Monica can I talk to you for a minute"
"yea, Rach"
They went into the hall and immediately after the door was closed Rachel hugged
Monica.
"What was that for?"
" None of this would've happened with out you."
"The guys really helped too."
"I know it was your idea"
"Actually it was Nickey and Emma's."
"Really"
"I helped too"
"Thanks Monica, You always believed in Ross and I. I don't what I would do
without you and I don't just mean now."
"I'm glad your my best friend too"
"Ready to go" Nickey asked peeking her head out the door.
"I gotta get my make up together"
"I already got it, mom."
"Thanks sweetie"
Monica, and Phoebe took all of the kids down to the limo except Nickey and
Emma so they could talk. "Girls, can we talk?"
"sure mom."
"I really need to thank you guys for putting your dad and I together"
"what"
"I talked to Aunt Monica"
"She never could keep a secret" said Emma.
"I love you guys so much, and I wish I wasn't leaving so early in the morning but
when I comeback I'm going to spend a week with each one of you. You are growing up
to fast. I love you guys now let's get going"
"I love you too mom" Nickey said. She was exactly like Rachel in every way. In
fact last Joey saw her he gave her the nickname of little Rach.
"Me too mom" T
"Come here" All three of them hugged when the door came swinging open.
"Okay were gonna be late, let's go, let's go, let's go"
Back at the church Ross and Nate were waiting for Ben to show up. As soon as
they walked out he pulled up in his car. "Sorry it took so long dad, I couldn't get my tie
right."
"Here let me help "Ross fixed his son's tie. When he was done he took a quick
look at his son. He looked so grown up. "There"
"Thanks pops"
"Dad, Dad don't look mommy's here"
At those words Ross closed his eyes. "Rachel"
"Yea, I'm here" She too had her eyes closed
"I love you"
"I love you too"
"Yea, Yea, we all love each other, the wedding starts in a half hour, can we please
get going"
"Okay, Okay" Nickey lead Rachel in and Emma lead Ross in.
"Here we are dad, you can open your eyes now,"
Ross opened his eyes and looked at his daughter. "You are look amazing and so
grown up. You look absolutely beautiful"
"Thanks Dad, you look good too. I'm gonna go with mom now"
"Tell your sister to come here, will ya"
"Sure"
Emma walked back to the room where Monica was finishing Rachel's makeup.
Emma was only thirteen but she still understood the importance of this day. Seeing her
mother in that dress made her feel so happy inside. She was sick of going back and fourth
with her mom and dad on weekends. Nickey was sitting right next to her mom. Emma and
everyone else knew that Rachel's favorite was Nickey and Emma was Ross' favorite. Nate
was Rachel's favorite son and Ben was Ross'. Emma sat down on a chair in the corner.
"Em what are you doing over there, come over here with" Nickey was a great
sister, even when she hated to invite her sister she did.
"I'm just getting some alone time before people start coming up and pinching my
cheeks to tell me how cute I am, oh by the way dad wants to see you."
"He does?"
"Yelp" she felt that she was the outsider of the family. Nickey had brains and she
was a cheerleader, which made Rachel so happy. Nate had skipped first grade and he was
on a soccer team. Ben did football and his best subject was science. Emma loved school
but was never good at it, she also liked to figure skate, which was not conceded a sport in
the Gellar family. So to herself she said, "They'll always love sweet, beautiful, athletic
Nickey more than me"
Nickey walked into the room where her dad was, "You wanted to see me"
" Yea," as he turned he was amazed at how beautiful his daughter was, "Oh my god,
Nickey, you look absolutely ... stunning... no radiant... your everything and you look so
grown up"
"Is that what you wanted me to come in here for?" she said with a laugh.
"No, did you make a speech for the reception."
"Mmm Hmm, want to hear it?"
"Nah, I want it to be a surprise your speeches are always perfect, so I know it will
be great."
"Thanks dad, I love you"
"I love you, too, pumpkin"
"Okay, I gotta get back mom said she wanted to rehears one more time"
"Well, you better get going the wedding starts in ten minutes"
"Oh my god" she took off running.
