Thanks for the reviews, guys. I am not sure when this fanfic will end, or how it will end. Right now, I am not even sure how to start this chapter. But all I know is, I am going to try to make it the best it could be. - Lobsters forever
New Chapter starts here:
Rachel was watching the clock, like she had a reason. It was now 1 am, and she decided to go to sleep. "If I let you go, I will never know, what my life would be, holding you close to me." These words echoed in her head for about the millionth time. She put Emma in her crib, and Rachel tip toed to Ross' door and opened the lights.
Her mouth curled at the master piece she saw before her. Ross was holding the pillow and sleeping. Not drooling, that's always a good sign. She looked at him and wondered what he was dreaming about he looked so peaceful.

We cut to Ross dream.
We see Ross in a hot tub, with Rachel beside him. She is massaging his shoulders. "Sweetie, how do is it?" the dream Rachel asks. "Really good, but you know what we never did?" Ross asks. Rachel shrugs while raising her eyebrows. "We never did it in a hot tub!" Ross continued. Rachel said seductively "Really, are you sure? Does this time coming up count?" Ross kisses her.

Rachel is standing in the door way and she whispers "I guess I will never know." Rachel then leaves the door way, and then steps in again. She breathes out and whispers "Ross, wake up." She moves closer to his bed, and gently rubs his back, sliding her fingers down his back. Ross in his sleep lets out an "ahhhh" Rachel smiles and rubs his back. Then whispers again "Ross, sweetie. Wake up." Ross doesn't. Rachel says a little louder "Ross, wake up." Ross is still asleep. Rachel grabs the pillows hits him with it and yells "Wake up! Wake up!" Ross gets up suddenly and asks "What? Who died?"
Ross then sees Rachel there and rubs his eyes, to see if Rachel was indeed there. She was indeed. Rachel sat down on his bed and said "Look, we have to talk." Ross looked in her eyes with a look of suspicion causing Rachel's heart to melt. "Have I ever told you, you have beautiful brown eyes?" Rachel asked. Ross smiled and replied "Not since we have gone out." Rachel nodded "Right. Well, I guess I should say it more often. Don't you think?" Ross answered "I know I would like it." Rachel smiled.
"Rach, is this really about eyes?" Ross asked. Rachel shook her head, looked at Ross with tears in her eyes. Grabbed his hand, then said "Look, you and I. We have had so much history; it should probably be a book by now. When ever we are together we are either fighting or flirting. I call it the two F's. You know for fighting and for, well that beside the point." Ross chuckles. Rachel continues "well, I guess what I am trying to say is."
Ross smiles and says "I know, and I think so too." Rachel closes her eyes and says "Good, so we should remain friends." Ross then opens his mouth slightly. His eyes watering. "Oh, yeah. That's what I meant." Rachel looks at him and she sees tears running down his face. Rachel reaches out and wipes away a tear, and Ross tilts his head to the side and kisses her hand.
Rachel gets up, and walks to her room. Then she whispers "I love you Ross, you're my best friend." Ross lies down and while she is sleeping he is staying awake crying.
We hear a song playing:
My mom always said
nothing would break me or lead me astray
Who would have guessed
I'd let my mind drift so far away
You always said I was a dreamer
now it's dead
I'm dreaming of things that's making my mind go
crazy
Small things like
When I call you at home and he
answers the phone
Or I get your machine and I don't hear me
When
I lie in my bed with the thoughts in my head
When we danced and
we sang and we laughed all night
Ooh da bop bop baby please
don't let me go
Can't live my life this way
Ooh da bop bop
baby please just let me know
And put my mind at ease for sure
On a love train
20 odd years now
I got off today
But
nobody said the stop that I've taken
Was a stop too late
Now
I'm alone I'm thinking of stupid
Hurtful small things like
When
I call you at home and he answers the phone
Or I get your machine
and I don't hear me
When I lie in my bed with the thoughts in my
head
When we danced and we sang and we laughed all night
Ooh
da bop bop baby please don't let me go
Can't live my life this
way
Ooh da bop bop baby please just let me know
And put my
mind at ease for sure
Maybe it's time to say goodbye
Maybe
it's time to let this lie
This is when we must set things right
Now that we've gone our separate ways
I just can't live these
desperate days
This is what I've been trying to say
Ooh
da bop bop baby please don't let me go
Can't live my life this
way
Ooh da bop bop baby please just let me know
And put my
mind at ease for sure!
The next morning, Ross went to work early. Rachel went to Central Perk early in the morning. She walked in and saw the gang except Ross sitting in their normal spots. Rachel sat down beside them with her magazine; she flipped it open to page 16 and started to read it. Monica asked Rachel "How did you sleep, Rachel?" Rachel replied "Pretty good, thanks." Monica then yells "How could you do that to Ross?" Rachel looks up from her magazine and then says "What? What did I do?" Chandler says "You hurt him pretty badly."
Rachel closes her magazine and says "Well, I am not the only one at fault. He also hurt me really bad, years ago with sleeping with the bitch Chloe." Joey nods and says "Rach, that was like 6 years ago. You still didn't forgive him?" Rachel looked confused then said "That's great. Thank you very much. So, all of a sudden its right for him to sleep with any woman he wants to when we were going out." Phoebe then says "no, Rachel. It's not. But it's also not right, to abandon the fact that you still love him." Rachel got up and said "I do not!" Phoebe nods then says sarcastically "yeah, that's convincing."
Rachel picks up her magazine and heads out the door. She bumps into Ross on the way out. "Hey, Cheater." Rachel says while walking out the door. Ross freezes, Monica helps Ross to the couch. "I can't. I can't. I just can't." Joey counts with his fingers then has that Joey confused face then asks "you can't what Ross?" Ross replies "Live like this, without her."
Monica sighs and says "why don't you try getting her back." Ross rolls his eyes. Chandler continues for Monica "She's right. Try getting her back, go back in time and get her back." Phoebe says "Chandler this is not time for your little jokes, Ross is hurting here."
Chandler continues "No, seriously. Go back in time, and tell her you love her." Ross puts down his coffee and answers. "If that was possible, I would in a second." Joey says "Here, come with me." Ross follows.
I hope you liked it, please review. The song is Bop Bop baby by Westlife. Yes, I love Westlife; they also have really great Ross and Rachel songs. Please Review.
