Ch. 2
I Do
Ross was standing at the front of the church, there were about five hundred people
packed into the tiny church. Little Zack was smiling at him. Ross decided to sit him with
his parents because they could hopefully keep him quiet. Ross could see his parents,
Rachel's parents, his friends, Rachel's friends, a couple of parents of friends that the kids
hung out with, but no Joey. He didn't think he would show up. Ever since he and Rachel
broke up because she went to Ross he had never been the same. He tried to get over her
by marrying Phoebe but when Rachel and Ross announced their engagement he left. One
day he wrote a note to Phoebe and just took off, no goodbye, nothing. It hit the group
pretty hard especially Phoebe and Chandler. Ross sent him an invitation hoping he would
show after all he was finally going to marry Rachel.
The music started to play and Ross knew the ceremony was starting he suddenly
became very nervous. As he watched Nate enter with the rings, he became more nervous
than before. Next came Katelynn, she was the flower girl. After her came Chandler with
Monica on one arm and Nickey on the other arm. Ben came in after them with Emma on
one arm and Phoebe. Finally in walked Rachel, the wedding march played softly on a
piano. As she walked in Ross just about died she was so Beautiful. It was like time was
standing still. When she got up to the front her father handed her off just Ross would
someday for Nickey and Emma. "Take care of her Ross"
"I promise" he knew her father meant what he said because he didn't call him Wet
head or Big Spender. He knew if he ever let Rachel down her father would kill him, he
wasn't going to wreck it this time, he had to many chances already.
"We are gathered here today to join Ross Ethan Gellar and Rachel Karen Green in
the bond of holy matrimony. They have chosen to write their own vows. Rachel...:"
"When I first saw you I thought you were just my friends geeky older brother, but
your not. Your everything I could ever want in a husband and ten times more. You are my
best friend, my hero. You are the love of my life and always will be. So when I say I do I
mean I do want to be with you and only you for the rest of my life. Ross you... are my
everything."
"Ross"
"As I stand here today I know that every dream I've ever had has come true.
You've given me so many chances to be with you, and each time I lost you my world
came crashing down. It's always been you. From ninth grade I knew you were the one for
me, that's how positive that I want you and only you for the rest of my life. Rach you
make me life complete. You are the mother of my children, the love of my life and so
many more things I ever could want. I always wanted to tell you this but we weren't on a
break. you were right, I will always love you now and forever" Tears ran down Rachel's
cheek and Ross wiped them.
" Do you Rachel take thee Ross as you husband for richer or poorer, through
sickness and health all the days of your life."
"I do"
"Do you Ross take thee Rachel as your wife for richer or poorer, through sickness
and health all the days of your life?"
"I Do!"
"The rings" At this Nickey had handed the ring to Rachel who placed it on Ross'
finger. Then Chandler had given the ring to Ross who placed the ring on Rachel's finger.
"I know pronounce you husband and wife. You may now kiss the bride "At these
words Ross grabbed Rachel and kissed her. The wedding march played and they exited.
This time Rachel and Ross lead followed by Nickey and Ben, then Chandler and Monica

Out side Ross and Rachel were being congratulated by everyone. The kids were all
standing around. talking.
Can you believe this is happening?" Ben asked his siblings.
"I can, they are meant for each other" Nickey answered.
"Me too, I'm just glad our plan worked" Emma added.
"What plan?' Nate asked.
"Um...well.."
What did you guys do"
"Remember two Christmases ago.......They all remembered this day very clearly.
Christmas eve Nickey and Ben had went to a party after pretending to be sick. Nate and
Emma tried to cover for them but wound up getting angry at them and telling Ross. Ross
drove to the party and picked them up. Nickey put up a fight as she always did when she
was with Ross. Ross sat them both down, and talked to them. Ben crashed on the couch.
Nickey and Ross stayed up talking all night. They had patched their relationship up, you
see when Ross left Rachel a the altar Nickey had sided with Rachel and refused to talk to
Ross. The next day Rachel was relieved to find out that Nickey was okay. (Nickey and
Ben had stayed at Joey's with "the flu", Joey wound crashing on the floor in Monica and
Chandler's. Rachel found early the next morning that Ben and Nickey were missing) Ross
and Rachel hadn't spoken much since their big fight a couple years before this. So when
Ross hadn't called Rachel to tell her what Nickey had done and that she was okay, Rachel
had been furious. The fought all day. Christmas was ruined for everybody. That day the
rest of them had talked about why they fought each other when deep down they were still
in love. "Well, I hated seeing mom and dad fight so I pulled Emma into the our room and
we talked. We decided we had to get help"
"So I got Aunt Monica to help with mom and Uncle Chandler to help with dad"
Ben was amazed at how smart his sisters were. To him they were perfect although
he was closer to Nickey because she was closer to his age. "You guys are geniuses"
"Kids come here" Ross called to the children. They all came running over. "We're
going to have the photographer take some pictures, so we need to get going if we're
gonna make the reception in time. So kids you go in the first limo and we'll be in the
second."
They got into the limos On the ride over Rachel and Ross had a conversation
about kids. "Do you want more kids?"
"Only with you"
"I love you Mrs. Gellar."
"About this kids things what are you getting at"
"Well we have three boys and two girls we're kind of uneven."
"So"
"I just wondered if we could have one more"
"Maybe later, let's concentration on us first"
"God I love this woman" He passionately kissed her.
The window rolled down and the driver said they arrived.
The wedding pictures were taken at the hotel in a room. Oliver was the
photographer, right away you knew he was a man of business. He began by making
Rachel sitting on Ross' lap, then Nickey and Emma were sitting back to back in front of
them. He placed Zack in front of them. Nate was standing on the right and Ben was on the
left. It took a long to get the family to get into this order. Then he took one with each
child. Then the wedding party. After all that work it was time for Rachel and Ross'
pictures. This took around two hours.
Finally when they finished up it was off to the reception hall.
"This is it Rach we're going to be pronounced Mr. and Mrs. Gellar for the first
time."
"I was Mrs. Gellar all along"
"God I love you"
"I love you too."

him the happiest when Rachel is by his side. He smiles to no end. They are meant for each
other. So here is to Ross and Rachel." Chandler sat down and Nickey stood up.
"I'm Nickey, My mom and Dad or Ross and Rachel have been off and on again a
lot but now they're finally together forever. When I look at my parents I see love. The
way the look at each other, the simple touch, the way they talk about each other
everything they do for each other is Love, pure, true, eternal love. When I look at them I
hope I have the same thing they have. So, here is to Mom and Dad, thank you for showing
us the perfect example of love." Rachel was already crying and Ross was amazed by his
daughter. Monica, Phoebe and a lot of other people were crying.
"She gets her speech skills from her father" Judy said to Jack.
Ben stood up next, "I think Nickey said what we all wanted to, So we all (the rest
of the kids gathered around the microphone) want to say to Mom and Dad.
Next Monica stood up," This is a very special wedding to me because my big
brother is finally married to the woman of his dreams, who happens to be my best friend,
so here is to my Big Brother and My best Friend." Phoebe should have talked next but
