Rachel woke up, her arms stretched out over her pillow and an arm around her which she knew was Ross's,She smiled slightly and opened her eyes which felt heavy as though she had been deprived from sleep for days.

She lifted her head from the pillow and looked around the room,it must been daylight as there was sunlight shining through the window and she could hear the busy roads outside,cars beeping and the steps of people outside going to work she guessed.

She felt Ross move next to her,She looked at him sleeping and couldnt help but smile.

Last night had been simply wonderful,Something that she had been hoping to happen for a long time,and now it had happened,she was already thinking towards the future as sleeping together was an obstacle to her before they could move further and begin their journey again together.

She rubbed her eyes with her hands which felt as cold as iceblocks,so she hid them underneath the cover to keep them warm ,she had always noticed something after a night spent with Ross,her body always felt fresh and almost brand new unlike when she slept with other guys she felt almost filthy. It wasnt like that with Ross.

She decided to get out of bed as she suddenly remembered her plans for the day,she was supposed to be at work for 11am and Ross had to pick up Emma from his parents house.

She stood up on the bed,trying to not shake the bed as she wanted Ross to remain asleep.

She heard Ross let out a moan,'Its ok sweetie...stay asleep' She told him gently stepping onto the bedroom floor. Ross's bedroom was quite a nice bedroom to wake up in,she thought.

She had never had the chance to wake up here before,seeing as he had only been living here 2 years and the time before was at her own apartment where they had accidentally concieved Emma. Hardly an accident to them now though.

Rachel admired herself in the mirror,noticing that her hair was flopped onto one side in a hair slide and her fringe brushed over her eyes. Her eyes were black from the mascara she had been wearing the previous day,'God Rach...' She said to herself with a sigh.

She got out her overnight bag and moisturised her face with her cream,closing her eyes to make the most of the fresh sensation on her skin. She could feel the cool breeze coming in from the window,and she noticed that the room had a certain smell and feel to it,strangely of sex. She was even sure that the birds outside knew she had been having sex through the night,usually she wouldnt take any notice of the birds singing,but today it was different. Today she was different.

Ross had been awake for a few minutes just listening to Rachel's actions. Failing to open his eyes for the third time,he thought it was maybe time to sit up.

He slowly opened his eyes,squinting with the bright light shining into his bedroom. The first thing he could make out was Rachel sitting on his bedroom floor struggling to put on one of her socks.

He laughed in his own mind,but didnt quite have the energy to let out a laugh. Rachel turned back around to see him staring across at her with a smile on his face.

'I didnt know you were awake...' She said,now getting up. She walked over to his bed and sat beside him. 'Sleep well?' She asked him planting a kiss on his cheek.

He nodded,'Best sleep in ages..' He smiled,touching her nose with the end of his finger.

'What you rushing about for?' he asked her.

'Well because some people have to go to work today...' she said,tilting her head to the side and pulling a face.

'Why,what time is it?' he asked.

'Time I got a kiss...'

She gave him one of those smiles which made his heart melt,'Your what my life is all about ya know Rach...' he told her.

She looked at him with a glint in her eye which he thought was a tear maybe forming.

'I love you so much...' She told him,ruffling his hair up before wrapping her arms around his neck.

He pulled her ontop of him and began to nuzzle at her neck making her want to stay,which was the whole idea.

'Ross..' she moaned as he now began to plant butterfly kisses on her chest.

'I'm going to be late...' She told him.

Ross chose not to listen,instead he decided it would be appropiate to undress her again. 'You dont know what you do to me Rach...' he told her,tugging at her pants which were refusing to come off.

'Ross...I have to go to work!' She told him. She loved him being so desperate for her,and to be honest work was the last thing on her mind when the man of her dreams was offering her a morning's worth of sex.

'You have a choice..' He reminded her,knowing that she didnt want to make a choice. He knew that she wanted to stay and make love all morning.

'I have no choice when it comes to you Mr Gellar...' She laughed as he finally took of her pants. She knew she wasnt going to get anywhere. She stopped fighting it and let him take her once again.

'If I get fired...Im blaming you' She threatened. Ross didnt seem to answer her,instead he slid off her underwear and pulled the covers over them to block the outside world from their morning of lovemaking.

Like a naughty school girl,Rachel sneaked into work 45 minutes late. Brushing back her hair and perfecting her outfit in the mirror,she made her way to her office trying to avoid her boss Mr Zelner.

She struggled with the lock at first,forcing the key to unlock the door and putting pressure on the door to open she began to lose her patience She was almost sure Mr Zelner would approach her soon and want to know firstly why she hadnt been in for a whole week and why she was late this morning.

Finally after a fifth attempt of opening the door,She made her way inside welcomed by a sort of dry smell which probably meant nobody had even been in to clean it since the last time was in. She sighed and placed her things on her desk,trying to make it look like she hadnt only just arrived.

She noticed that her answering machine was bleeping,praying that it wouldnt be Mr Zelner she hit the play button to see who it was.

'Hey Rach,missing you already sweetie,have a nice day at work,try not to think of me too much now...Im finding it hard not to think about you,love you sweetheart'

She smiled at the thought of Ross now leaving her messages at work,just 2 weeks ago the most exciting message at work would be from human resources,but now it was from Ross. Ross Gellar. Her Ross.

Ross flicked through the newspaper whilst sipping his cup of coffee , 'Want anything to eat Ross?' Joey asked him who had already got up before for a plate of bagels.

Ross shook his head,'Im ok Joe..' He smiled. Getting back to his paper,he was joined by Phoebe who scooted up next to him looking slightly suspicious about something.

'Ross can I use your cell?' She asked him. Ross cleared his throat,'Sure pheebs,What do you need it for?'.

'Need to call Mike,I have to cancel our date tonight'

Ross nodded and handed his cellphone right over to her. Joey soon was back with another plate of food but this time of doughnuts.

'When will you ever get full?' Ross joked as he looked at Joey with his plate. 'When will you ever get tired of dinosaurs?' Joey asked Ross.

Ross laughed,'Ok...You win'.

'AHA!' Phoebe yelled. She stood up with the cellphone in her hands.

Ross was confused by her actions,'What Pheebs?' He asked,trying to grab the phone back off her.

'...N...Nothing' She told him,although she wasnt quite convincing.

His phone then began to ring,'Can I answer my phone please?' Ross asked,finding it ironic that he had to ask for permission to answer his own call.

Phoebe nodded,throwing over his phone. 'Sure...Who is it Ross?' She asked. Ross took the phone off her.

He saw the caller was Rachel,'Its...its,Rachel' He admitted.

Phoebe sat down with Joey,'Really?' She asked cocking up her eyebrow.

Ross knew what was going on. Him and Rachel had been caught out.

He answered it as casually as he could,'Hey Rach..'

Phoebe and Joey sat and listened for something to give the pair away,'So busted...' Phoebe whispered into Joeys ear.

Ross continued to speak to Rachel,'Ummmm,I'm going to get Emma in about an hours time' He told her.

'Ok Sweetie,what are you doing at the moment?'

Ross scratched his head feeling more and more uneasy about being listened to while he spoke to Rachel.

'Just at the coffeehouse with Phoebe and Joey...' He said trying to let her know he wasnt alone so she had to be discreet.

'Oh,Well...I'll ring you back later,What do you want to do tonight?' She asked.

'Whatever you want...'

'How about we get upto no good?' She asked.

Ross laughed. 'If thats what you want...' He said,closing his eyes wishing she would get the message that they were going to be caught out. 'I'll ring you later...' He told her.

Phoebe and Joey remained on the sofa,'Joey...I dont like doing this,but I wish they would just admit to it...' She said.

'I know...' He agreed. Suddenly he got up off the sofa and snatched the phone off Ross.

'Joey!' Ross yelled at him trying to snatch it back.

'Hey Rach...Why did I find a mans shaver in the bathroom the other day that wasnt mine?'Joey asked her.

'Ummm,I dont know'

'Cmon Rach...What are you hiding?'

'Nothing!' She lied.

'OK...I'll believe you if you can answer me this one thing...'

'What?'

'Why did I hear you and Ross speaking to eachother last week on the phone about your plans for the night?' He asked her.

Rachel was stumped. There was nothing she could say now apart from admit it.

Rachel decided to just admit to it,'Joe...Ok,you've caught us out' She told him.

Joey jumped up and down,'I knew it!' He congratulated himself.

Ross slumped back down on the sofa,surprised by his friends actions but also feeling relieved about it all being out in the open now. 'Hey joe,when you're finished,i'd like to get back to my conversation...' Ross said. Joey nodded,'Im sorry Rach that we had to do it this way,why couldnt you have just told us?' He asked. 'Its not that easy...I'll speak to you later Joe,Can you put Ross back on?' She asked.

Joey passed the phone back to Ross. 'The investigation is over..' Joey announced as he sat back down with Phoebe.

Phoebe shook her head,'Thought we were going to find out without confronting them Joe?' She asked.

Joey shrugged,'I know...but I couldnt take all this secrecy again!' He said biting into his donut.

Ross finished his phonecall with Rachel. He sat back down and began to talk to Phoebe and Joey.

'Im sorry we didnt tell you sooner...' He told them.

Phoebe smiled,'Why are you apologising? We're so happy for you both! We only wanted you to just admit it...Now you have,we wont give you anymore trouble!' She said before she embraced him with a hug.

Joey smiled over at him,'Huh Ross,Just one thing...Make sure you keep her this time,you two belong eachother man...'

Ross was pleased with his friends reactions,'Thanks guys...We'll have to tell Monica and Chandler tonight'

Ross got back up from the sofa,'I have to go and pick up Emma now guys...' he announced.

Phoebe got up with him,'Do you mind if I walk your way with you? You pass the massage parlour right?' She asked.

Ross nodded,'Sure do...'

Joey remained by himself with his plate of donuts.'Bye you guys...' He called out.

Ross and Phoebe walked together,talking about him and Rachel mostly and their future. 'What did I say about Lobsters all that time ago huh?' Phoebe asked.

Ross laughed,'That they meet and love eachother for life...' He remembered.

Phoebe smiled,'You remembered!'

Ross nodded,'And you also said they grow old together...'

Phoebe rubbed his arm,' See? I might be weird...but I know love when I see it' She told him.

Ross smiled. He was almost excited for Rachel to get home so they could tell monica and chandler so everybody would know.
