The new fall had just begun, trees had lost their leaves whilst the sky was a grey colour each day causing the city to feel in a low mood, summer had been and gone and it would be another 6 months until the sign of sunshine would probably even appear.

It was 7am in the morning; all that could be heard was the birds singing, and the brushing of the leaves on the pavement, nobody was out on the street apart from a few cars going past and the coffee shop was just opening.

The couple in the apartment across the street were just waking up, today was a big day for them, they were moving from the apartment. It had been a lonely six months for this couple, despite being with one another, they missed their 4 best friends who they hadn't seen for over a month now, they knew things would change but they didn't know how much it would effect them. 'Sweetie…' Ross whispered into his fiancé's ear in attempt to wake her so she wouldn't sleep in, the moving guys would be around in a matter of hours, two to be exact, and that was short taking in account that Rachel took this amount of time to get herself ready and looking beautiful, not that she needed to in his opinion.

She groaned from her pillow, it couldn't be time to wake up already she thought to herself, it felt only minutes ago that her and Ross had fallen asleep after a few hours of making love for the first time in weeks, life had been quite stressful lately for both of them, the thought of leaving being one of their main stresses, and Emma was at that age where she wanted attention from everybody, especially her mother, they hadn't found time for just one another lately, but they wouldn't dare complain as they had everything they had wished for.

'What time is it?' she asked, a small frog in her voice, she cleared her throat quickly and rubbed her eyes.

'Its gone 8 sweetie, the moving guys will be here at 9…' he told her, 'we have to get up…'She shot up from her bed, getting a bit of dizziness as she did this, 'we have an hour before they come? Well I didn't know it was that late already…' she said, putting on her socks and putting back her hair in a clip. 'I'll go and sort a few last things out, why don't you jump in the shower and I'll join you in a sec hon.?' she said, giving him a quick kiss on his cheek before running off into the front room.

Ross hadn't seen her get up so fast, but he knew exactly why she was eager to go, the thought of being in their bedroom for the last morning was hard to handle for her, she was emotional and he knew that more than anybody, he would have to make sure she didn't get too upset today, but it didn't take much for her to cry.

He sat for a moment or two at the end of the bed, capturing the image of his bedroom in his mind, so many memories were in this bedroom, the first time he had moved here had been at a hard time in his life, but he loved the times he had spent with Rachel and Emma here. Emma had taken her first steps in his bedroom that morning when the three of them had relaxed in bed, reading the newspaper like he had always dreamed, he remembered the night of Rachel's going away party, the love they had shared that night not to mention the passion was something that he hadn't experienced before with any other woman, that was what made Rachel special, she was like no other and over the past 6 months, they had shared more love than ever even though they hadn't spent much time with one another, they learnt somehow to be without each other at certain times, 'Ross? Get moving!' he heard Rachel scream from the kitchen, usually it was him telling her to hurry up, 'OK!' He shouted back, he stood up from the bed, leaving a print in the sheets, the print that would never be made again in this room. 'Get over it.' Ross told himself, he had moved so many other times, why was it so hard now?

Shutting the door behind them brought back memories from six months ago when they had last been inside Monica and Chandler's apartment, they thought that it had been devastating that time, but somehow leaving Ross's apartment, the whole idea broke their heart. Rachel had only lived there for 5 months, yet she felt home here, more than anywhere else she had been in her life, even more than at Monica's

'Something tells me we've came the wrong way.' Ross announced, checking the map as he drove. 'Check that we're on the right road Rach.' he asked her, concentrating back on the open road in front of them. It had been 40 minutes of driving, they should have been arriving there now but they hadn't seen any signs leading them to Scarsdale as yet, the movers would be there before they got there. 'Sweetie, I don't understand this thing…you know I'm not good with maps' Rachel reminded him, trying to find her way through the map to be a little helpful. 'Let me take over the wheel while you read the map huh?' she suggested. Ross laughed. 'You must think I'm mad Ms Green, I told you that I would never be in the same car as you again if you were driving…that was a promise' he told her firmly, 'You haven't even got your licence renewed yet for Christ's sake…' he pointed out to her as she got out of her licence, the date was still back in the 90's. 'Oh give it over Ross…' she snarled at him, turning her head away from him to let him know she was so not impressed.

Neither of them spoke for the next 5 minutes as Ross tried to find his way up to their new home, they had only visited the house a few times but they knew it was for them, it was the only house that appealed to people such as themselves, an old fashioned home but with a hint of class. Scarsdale had always been on the cards for Ross, and he had only persuaded Rachel those weeks ago when they had decided to look for a house, she set eyes on this house and all of her arguments for why they shouldn't move there disappeared, just like that. 'Oh shit…' Ross grunted, as he banged the driving wheel with his fingers, 'You wont believe this…' he told her.

She turned around to look at him, 'What is it?'

'The gas…'

'What about it?'

'…Its run out' he told her, 'I knew this would happen, today of all days…' he yelled. Rachel rubbed his arm, 'Its ok, we'll find the nearest station and get more gas…' She smiled reassuringly.

Ross shook his head, 'would be fine if the nearest station wasn't 5 miles away Rach…' he said, 'we're in serious shit…' he confirmed.

She took the map back out from the compartment, 'I'll have another look of this and find out which way we need to head…quick'.

'Quick? Scarsdale is nowhere to be seen Rach, we don't have enough gas to last us 15 minutes and the nearest station is miles away…'

'Maybe it'll last longer if we get moving again…' she suggested.

'I'm telling you now Rach…' The car suddenly came to a slow halt, '…. What did I tell you? Gas has run out even sooner than I guessed….'.

Rachel began to laugh.

'And what exactly is so funny madam?' Ross asked, slapping her thigh.

She shrugged, 'its just that…well, this could only happen to us couldn't it? The day we move and we don't even get to the house.' She laughed again as she said this.

Ross began laughing now too, the truth was that if they didn't laugh, they would probably break down in tears, 'You know what else is funny?' he asked her.

'What?'

'Tomorrow afternoon we have to somehow make our way back to your mothers house to collect our daughter.' he reminded her.

Rachel laughed. 'That's not going to happen, we haven't even got there and it's almost 11am…'

Ross checked his watch, 'Mine's stopped…' he realised, 'still says 10.'

'I think we should get out of the car and wait for someone to come by…' she suggested, 'we cant stay in the car forever…'

The whole situation was becoming hilarious now to both of them, 'I have another suggestion…' Ross told her, 'We haven't seen a car go past in hours, we have the car to ourselves…nothing else to do but wait, I say…'

'Mr Gellar…' She said, knowing just what he meant, 'That would be…'

'Naughty?' Ross asked her, tracing the outline of her face with his index finger.

'That's what I was thinking…' she said, kissing him quickly, not letting him have a chance to talk. She laughed as they fumbled around, this was so unlike them, but that was what made it so exciting.
