The island orchids gave off an inviting smell as they were illuminated by the tiki torches. A million stars glittered in the sky. A small calypso band played as the lovers moved . Her head was laying on his shoulder as she breathed in his familiar scent. One that ignited passion in her very soul.

He brushed a stray blonde hair from her face. All he wanted to do was capture this moment forever. In his heart he held the secret, in less than twenty four hours the girl of his teenage dreams would be his forever. She sighed and all he could hear was the restless sound of the ocean waves. As the band took a break, hand and hand they walked back to their table.

"This has been the most perfect night." Rachel sighed. "The food was delicious and the sky is so beautiful."

"Let's walk, " Ross said. Holding her shoes in her hands, they strolled along the moonlit beach. The waves slowly broke along the shoreline and left traces on the sand.

"Look a jellyfish." Rachel said.

"Please stay away from it. I don't want that in common with our friends." Ross said in disgust.

"The moon is shining off your hair and it has to be the most beautiful sight I have ever seen. He took his hands and brushed her cheek with them . Cupping her chin, he moved her head closer and her lips brushed with his. She seemed to bite his lower lip gently and his mouth parted so his tongue would find it s way into her mouth. The absent music softly played in their heads as his lips found their way down her long neck. Each moan was like a symphony of pleasure.

"Oh Ross." she moaned.

"Not until you are mine." he whispered.

"I am yours now and forever, no man has made me feel the way you do." she said as she rubbed his shoulders and began to slowly take down his jacket. Her manicured fingers rubbed his muscular arms and then one of her fingers found it 's way to the tie around his neck. She tried to slide it off over his head , not unlike she did at the museum that wonderful night. Carefully unbuttoning his shirt , she started to place tiny kisses on his chest, he caressed her hair as she sighed.

"Oh I have always wanted to make love on a beach. So romantic." Rachel said as she pushed his dark brown hair off of his face. She just wanted to brush her hands right through it.

He gently eased her toward the ground. Laying his jacket down as a blanket, he laid her on it. He pulled the straps on her dress down as he kissed her sun kissed skin.

As they laid on the sand , a pair of lobsters crawled across the sand . They were locked together by the little claws on them.

"Look honey, lobsters, just like us." Ross pointed to them.

"Phoebe was right, we are lobsters. If after wrecking a wedding, drunk in Vegas, a child , and almost leaving the country, we are still together , then we will be together." Rachel said.

"I am having a better time this time." she smiled.

She started to unfasten his pants and carelessly toss them on the sand. He was clad only in his boxers and he laid himself against her so she could feel the one part of him that truly belonged to her. The dress laid on the sand as well. She was totally naked. He molded his hands around her firm ass and she got ready for what was to come. She put her legs around his torso and he eased herself into her. Pushing and pulsing, it was not painful, just refreshing.

When they reached that point. He collapsed on top of her and fell asleep. She stared up into the sky and the stars and then looked down on the man who held her in his arms.

"Thank you God for getting me off that plane." she whispered up into the sky. Then she closed her eyes and fell asleep. Her hands wrapped around his shoulder and she laid her head on his chest.

"Excuse me, this is a public beach." the lifeguard from the hotel said.

Immediately their heads popped up. Ross looked down at their clothes scattered on the sand and realized they were laying on the beach naked.

"This scene seems very familiar. Just like we woke up after the first time we made love in the museum. " Rachel said as she put her dress over her head.

"Very sorry, very , very sorry." Ross said as he put his boxers on and threw his jacket over his body. After the lifeguard walked away, they both giggled.

Monica dialed the phone for the eighth time 'Damnit Ross, pick up." she said as she slammed the phone.

Chandler rose from the bed slowly. "And why are we yelling this early in the morning.?" He pulled the covers from the bed and walked to where the sleeping twins were. "Good still sleeping." he smiled.

"I have been trying to get ahold of Ross, we have a ten o clock meeting with the hotel staff for tomorrow, plus we can't go anywhere to eat until Rachel is busy." Monica said. "I'm not worried about me but…."

At that moment , Joey came in the door whining. "I'm hungry, when are we eating?"

"We can't eat until Ross says it's okay." Monica said.

"I'm hungry now." he yelled.

"I have got an idea, why can't you say that Deep Powder is filming on location in Barbados. That way you can go eat if you run into Rachel ." Monica said inspired.

Alex, Gina, Michael, were eating now." Joey screamed across the hall.

Ross ran into the room . "Sorry Rachel and I spent the night on the beach and we just woke up. Mon , I am going to shower and change and I will meet you in the lobby for this meeting with the caterer. " Ross looked over at Joey. "What if Rachel sees you?" he asked,

"Alright got it covered, shooting Deep Powder on location." Monica said.

"Brilliant, well brains do run in the Geller family and I told Rach that Phoebe was really Ursula." Ross said. "Be right back.'

At that moment, the twins woke up with the loudest of crying. Monica and Chandler walked quickly to the cribs. "Mommy loves her little baby boy." Monica said as she rocked Jack back and forth. Chandler picked up Erica as she stared at him with her big blue eyes. "And Daddy loves his little girl." he said as she curled her fingers around his finger and smiled at him.

"Well Rachel , we got a big day. I booked you some time at the spa this morning, then we have our lesson at five, so that means you better get moving." Ross said as he ran into the shower and grabbed some clothes from the suitcase. While he was in the bathroom, he took all the toiletries and put them in his carry on.

"Ross you are up to something, I know you too well." Rachel screamed over the shower.

""Have to talk louder honey, can't hear you." he said . Rachel angrily walked into the bathroom. "You have sent me on wild goose chases and are trying to get rid of me. Now what in the hell is going on?" she screamed.

"Honey, I can't find the shampoo, call downstairs and have them send some up." he said over the water.

"You have them in your bag like you always do. Now why can't you tell me?" she whined.

He stepped from the shower with a towel wrapped around him. "Nothing is going on." he said sincerely. "Please excuse me but I have a thing today." he said as he dressed and ran a comb through his hair.Then he leaned over and kissed her and was out the door.

Rachel scratched her head and walked to the elevator. She almost had a collision with the person who was getting in. She turned around and saw him.

"Joey!" Rachel said.

Joey smiled and said weakly, "Hi Rach."
