Author's Note: Thank you guys for reviewing. I'm so glad for all of the positive responses. I would most certainty appreciated if you guys would just read my new story called Underneath This Smile. Thanks. Now here is chapter 11. Enjoy!

Where we left off…

"Well, I was debating on either to tell you this or not but now I know that you really need to know this. Rachel I've realized that I love you and always have." Ross said. Now he was waiting for Rachel to answer.

"Ross…" Rachel began.

"Yeah." He said hopefully.

"Um… Ross I'm sorry, but I don't love you. I mean, I may love you sometime in the future but now it's just too fast." Rachel said.

"Oh. I understand, I've shouldn't have said anything. I'm sorry if I've scared you. Um, I'll just go," Ross said getting up, he was visibly hurt.

"No, Ross, wait." Rachel said, but before she could go to catch he was gone.

Rachel walked in her house. She threw her purse on the couch and went upstairs to her bedroom. When she got to her bedroom she looked at herself in the mirror. He face was tear stained and her make-up was rubbing off. She had cried all the way home. Rachel was mad at her self for hurting Ross. She just wasn't ready to take then next step. A fresh batch of tears came and then she soon fell asleep.

The next day Rachel drove to Monica ns Chandler's house to get Emma. She knocked on the door and Monica answered.

"Oh my god, Rachel." Monica said sadly when she opened the door." Ross told me everything."

"Is he really mad?" Rachel asked as she walked in.

"Well more upset then mad. He's just disappointed that you didn't say it back." Monica said sitting on the couch, Rachel doing the same.

"I don't know what to do now. I mean him and Emma are getting along and now he may not be around much because of what I did." Rachel said.

"It's ok sweetie. Look, Rach, you did the right thing for you and Emma. Just give him sometime to let this all sink in." Monica said.

"All right, I will do that I'll talk to him tomorrow. Now where's Emma?" Rachel asked.

'Oh, she's upstairs playing with Jack and Erica. I'll go and get her." Then Monica disappeared upstairs. A few moments later she came downstairs with Emma following her.

"Hi Mom." Emma said giving Rachel a hug.

"Hi, honey. Were you good for Aunt Monica and Uncle Chandler?" Rachel asked.

"As always." Emma smiled.

"Good. Now go wait in the car ok. I'll be right there." Emma did what she was told and Rachel turned to Monica.

"Thanks for keeping her Mon, I would've called but I was upset." She said.

"It's ok Rachel. I'll see you later ok." Monica said.

"Ok. Bye." Then she left.

While Rachel and Emma were in the car driving home Rachel decided to bring up what happened the night before.

"Emma, sweetie. Um… me and your dad got into a little fight last night." Rachel said.

"What? You and dad got into a fight." Emma asked shocked.

"He is sort of mad at me…" Rachel began but was cut off by Emma.

"So since now you guys into a fight he's not coming over no more?" Emma asked.

"Honey, I don't think that he's that mad that he won't come by to visit. He's just upset because he said something and I didn't say it back." Rachel said trying to ease the situation a bit.

" He said 'I love you' and didn't?" Emma asked already knowing.

"Yeah, but honey we just started dating. It's too fast." Rachel tried to explain.

"Whatever mom. Now since you hurt dad's feelings he won't come by to see me for a while." Emma said and the rest of the ride home was silent. When they pulled into the driveway of their house Emma got out of the car and ran to the door. When Rachel opened the door, Emma ran up to her room and slammed the door shut.

So what did you think? I know Emma and Rachel's conversation was a bit superficial but I did my best. Now review.
