New Chapter:
Ross was looking in the mirror while observing if he looked okay or not. He picked up his comb and started to sing "L is for the way you look at me. O is for the only one you see. V is this very, very extraordinary. E is everything that you adore and I know. Love was made for me and you!" He stopped singing as he heard the door bell. He answered it "Rachel, oh how wonderful you look. Just as beautiful as a lily." Rachel smiled "Well, thank you Ross." She said as she hugged him. Ross let go and Rachel said "Oh this is Joey." Ross' record scratched "I'm sorry, but you're a man." Ross said. Joey shook his hand and said "Yeah, I guess I am." Ross said "Right-to. How and when did you two meet?" Rachel replied "We meet in the park, you see Joey here was helping a child on the swings. He is such a sweet guy."
Ross smiled and shook Joey's hand again "Well, Joey nice to meet you." He held on tight and squeezed his hand." Joey wiggled his hand out and responded "Yeah, same Ross. Well, lets go."
The movie theatre was quiet. Rachel was crying and so was Joey. Ross looked over his shoulder and saw him crying so he closed his eyes tight, then reminded himself quietly to not scream. He took his index finger and poked both of his eyes. Ross had now formed tears in his eyes. Rachel looked over at him and said "Oh, Ross." She said as she hugged him for comfort." Ross smiled pleased and Joey saw this. So he acted fast "Rachel, do you want anything? Anymore more popcorn? Tissues? I came prepared." Rachel smiled and took his tissues and wiped her eyes and kissed his cheek. "That's so sweet." Ross yelled "You have got to be kidding!" People turned around and yelled for him to be quiet.
Ross was driving back home and Rachel was sitting in the back she didn't want him to be lonely. Just as Ross was now. He was driving while Rachel and Joey were talking. Ross had enough he had to say something . "So, Joey what do you do for a living?" Rachel responded for him "He is an actor. Maybe you can help him make it big." Ross replied "I doubt it." Rachel frowned. Joey said "It's okay, I don't need his help. I can just pray to God for some luck." Ross slapped his hand on the wheel. Rachel asked "What was that?" Ross replied " A fly" Joey then asked "in winter?" Ross replied "Well, you never know when one gets in." They arrived at Joey's house, and he said "Rachel, would you like to come in?" Ross was praying "please say no. Please say no." Rachel responded "Maybe another night. I want to go over to my old house to show Ross something." Ross turned around to see Rachel smiling. Joey said "well, Rachel. See you tomorrow at 5."
Rachel crawled into the front seat while Ross started to drive. When they arrived, Rachel held his hand. Ross smiled and thought this was going to be the night. He and Rachel walked into the house and said "lets go to my bedroom." Ross said "I like that idea." She opened the door to her old bedroom, and saw pictures of them all over the wall. She then came back and said "Here, you never got to read what I wrote in your year book. " she said as she handed it to him. "You just took off without saying good bye. That was the last time I ever saw you. I missed you, and now you're here. So, just read the damn yearbook."
Ross opened it and saw "To my best friend, Ross I love you so much. You have made things possible for me. You helped me when my parents got divorced, and when Monica and I used to fight for which teddy bear we should use as our children in our game of house. We go way back, and I can't imagine how college is going to be with you. We are going to have so much fun. I also want to take time to say sorry for Chip. He was a jerk. You better write something nice in my year book. Love Rachel Karen Green. XOXO"
Ross closed the year book and said "I am so sorry. It's just that you hurt me really bad that night. I needed this. Thank you." Ross said actually touched by her words. Rachel came up to him kissed him on the cheek and said "Yeah, well. I am the one that needs to be sorry. But that is how I felt back then" Ross hit a light bulb. Rachel just realized what she said and asked "Do you want to sit on the bed? Like old times?" Ross nodded.
They both jumped onto the bed, and smiled at one another. Ross laid down on the bed and Rachel saw this and did so also. Rachel went on her side and wondered "Who are you Ross?" Ross answered "I know what you mean. I have changed since high school. I am not the same person, I am little bit edgier." Rachel stopped him there. "No, your not. Now you are like you were in high school. So nice, and sweet. Before when we are at Red Lobster you were this arrogant jerk trying to impress me. That's not what I want in you. I want you to tell me who the real Ross is."
Ross nodded and said "Well, this is the real Ross." He said as he leaned in to kiss her. Rachel responded to the kiss and said as she backed away off the bed "You know what? That is not what I had in mind. All I wanted you to do is tell me what you are feeling. Please just get out." Ross got up and said "I am sorry, I thought this is what you wanted." He meant that, he really did mean it. This is not just about proving something to those jerks in high school. Ross was falling for her. Just for a second there, he thought she was too.
Tell me what you think. Please review.
