Chapter 5: Will They Or Won't They
Carly came out of Ross's bedroom to find Ross on the couch. She sat down beside him. "Sweeite what's wrong" she asked "Have you been out here all night" He turned to face her. "We need to talk" he whispered. She knew a talk starting that way was never good. She sighed softly nodding. Ross took a deep breath. "Carly you're a great girl and I like you but" he paused. "I...I'm on love with someone else and I have been for a long time now" Tears filled her eyes. "You jerk" she spat out. "We have sex, I tell you I love you and then you decide to tell me this" she snapped.
"I...I'm sorry Carly" he whispered "I...I though I was moving on but then yesterday I saw her again and I realized I would never move on that I would love her for the rest of my life" She glared at him "Yesterday! You saw this bitch yesterday!" she yelled. "Rachel isn't a bitch Carly she's the mother of my child" he said. She gasped "Rachel" she whispered. "Oh my God last night when we were having sex you mumbled something it was her name wasn't it! You were thinking of her when you with me weren't you" she started crying. He sighed nodding a little "I never meant to hurt you Carly" She glared at him. "I hate you!" she screamed "I never want to see you again! I hope you rot in hell" she yelled as she left her apartment slamming the door behind her.
Later that morning Ross headed up to Westchester hoping things would go better with Rachel. He walked up to Monica's house and knocked on the door. Chandler answered it. "Hey Ross" he said "Is uh is Rach here" he asked. He nodded "She's in the kitchen with Mon and the kids" They walked to the kitchen. Ross just stood there watching Rachel help Monica with the twins. She was still so beautiful. "Ross!" Jack squealed pointing in his direction. Rachel looked over and saw Ross standing there with a smile on his face. "Hi" she said softly. "I...I'll go" she was walking past him to leave when he gently grabbed her arm. "Don't go" he whispered. She looked up at him, and that's when she noticed the bruises on her face. "Oh my God Rach" he whispered "Wh...what happened" he asked lightly touching her face.
Rachel looked down and then back up at him. She took his hand and led him to the living room. She took a deep breath. "Ross I left Paris to get away from my fiancee" she whispered. His heart sunk when he heard she was engaged. "You...you're engaged" he asked softly. "I was" she said "But I left him because he was abusive" Ross looked at her with shock, anger and sadness. "Did that bastard do this to you" he asked touching her face again. She nodded "Yes and he uh he forced himself on me in front of Emma" she said her eyes filling with tears. "Shh its okay Rach" he whispered as he pulled her into his arms. At that moment he swore if he ever say the son of a bitch that hurt the woman he loved and their little daughter he would kill him.
"I...I'm sorry I left" she cried "I...I'm so sorry I hurt you" she whimpered. "I...I still love you Ross, so much" she cried. "I still love you too Rach" he whispered. She gently pulled away to look at him. "You do" she asked. He nodded and smiled "Yes Rach" he whispered. "It...its always been you, you're the only woman I've truly loved" he said his lips inches from hers. Rachel smiled "You're the only man I've ever truly loved" she said leaning closer to him. They were just about to kiss when the doorbell rang.
Monica smiled as she glanced at her brother and bestfriend on her way to the door. She opened the door and saw a man she'd never seen before. "I'm looking for Rachel" he said with a thick French accent. "Uh she isn't here" Monica said knowing that this man had to be Pierre. "You lie! I know she's here" he yelled. "No she isn't now leave my house" Monica said. Pierre got angry. He pushed Monica and stormed in the house. "Rachel!" he screamed "I know you're here" he yelled. Rachel heard Pierre screaming for her. She began to tremble. Ross wrapped his arms around her. "I won't let him hurt you" he whispered. Rachel clung to him hoping Ross could keep her safe.
