Why did you have to leave me
When you said that love will conquer all
why did you have to leave me
When you said that dreaming
Was as good as reality
I want you to stay never go away from me
Stay forever
But now, now that you're gone
All I can do is pray for you
To be here beside me again
And now I must move one
Trying to forget all the memories
Of you near me
But I can't let go of your love
That has taught me to hold on
Those lyrics spoke to Ross. He wanted Rachel to stay with him. For her to stay forever. But that was all impossible. For almost three years has passed since the last time that Rachel was in his arms. That night before she left. The night WHEN she left. That was the night he could never forget.
"Hey Honey. How did it go at Monica's?" A woman asked behind Ross' couch. Ross just smiled and kissed her cheek. Not as smooth skinned as Rachel. That's what he thought.
"I guess it was okay. Just the usual. Me, Monica, Chandler, Phoebe, Mike, Rachel and her new..." He said. Just as if it was a regular visit at his sister's and best friend's house. As if seeing the love of his life,ex-girlfriend,ex-wife,mother of his daughternotice there isn't any 'S' at the end,the most beautiful woman he has ever set his eyes on,his best friend and a lot more other things that he can describe he lost that night at the airport was a regular thing. Well. Before it was. But now it wasn't.
"So how is Rachel? I haven't seen her since... who knows when. Like ten years ago." She said emerging out of the couch. There she was. Ross' girlfriend. Julie.
"She's still the same Rachel. She came with her fiance, their daughter and Emma," Ross said. To everyone in the litte group of 6 people. They knew that the sound of his voice like that means he's hurt. But, to Julie. That's Ross' voice since she remet him just about six months after Rachel leaving.
"Emma? As in your daughter Emma?" Julie asked. Ross nodded. Julie never really met Emma. Emma never even knew about Julie. Neither did Rachel. He knew it wouldn't hurt Rachel if he told her. But, somewhere inside him, he thought and felt like she would. So the times he called Emma. He just didn't do anything.
"Can we see her? I mean. I wanna see that little daughter of yours that you're so proud of." Julie said kissing Ross' neck more like Rachel did before. But this time, Ross knew Julie could never be like Rachel.
"Yeah. I just have to call Monica to get Rachel's number and ask her to spend some time with my daughter." Ross told Julie heading outside after kissing her on the cheeck.
Ross needed to get out of his apartment where He and Rachel use to live together after Emma. Memories of him and Rachel flirting and having those special moments that they always has was being played over and over again in his mind. Thinking about what happened in Monica's house. He didn't know if he could take in the news at all. He didn't know, what to do, what to say, all he knew was that he needed to get out before Rachel said anything. He had an explotion. So. He just needed to get out. And that. That was what he did. head out the door...Just at the right place and at the right time...
.:ABOUT AN HOUR EARLiER:.
"I'm sure that you want to know who the father is." Rachel said being cut by Ross standing up. He got ranging mad. His emotions were pilled up from what Rachel has done to him in the airport. Then, almost three years later, coming back, just like nothing happened with communications cut and him only talking to his daughter, just five times in those almost three years they were in Paris.
"Oh! I'm sure it's some hot guy you picked up from the bar! Oh. Wait! Maybe. Isn't there a chance that it might be that guy's best friend! And I'm pretty sure. That you just left him hanging back in Paris, lost in himself because he loved you so much! I'm sure that you came back here thinking that you still have everything that you left." Ross said not noticing someone entering in and all three kidsEmma,Jack,Erica coming down the staries wanting to know what the adults wre screaming about. He didn't notice that Ella was crying and the three kids was trying to comfort her by giving her the T-rex.
"I'm sure Rach that he's some guy that you don't love, but, in return he loves you VERY MUCH. But, just like me, you chose to ignore him! I don't see you with a man here! I don't see you with someone here! So things mustn't have changed! Maybe, the same things with me and you happened with that guy. I am really being sympathetic to him because I just wanna tell him how much he's right thinking that Rachel is nothing else but la chienne de baise de mère!motherfuckenbitch!"Ross exploded with anger. He was about to say more when Emma kicked him. It didn't really hurt him physically. But, emotionally. It hurt him.
"I don't like you Dinosaur guy! You're not like what Mommy said you were! Leave me and my mom alone!" Emma said kicking him repeatedly until some stranger pulled her away and got he calmed down. Everyone looked at Ross who just stormed out of the scene. For a fact. With what he had just done. It wasn't how Rachel told Emma about the Dinosaur Guy. Rachel told Emma that Ross loves them both, maybe not Ella yet, but he will in time. She told Emma about the time that he told her how HE IMAGINE he would've proposed to her. When in fact. He was in that same way he described it witht the lilies suppose to be ont heir first year anniverary which we all know what happened...
Ross. He was the guy that was always patient with Rachel. That no matter what Rachel was to do. He would never get mad at her. But, now, she feels nothing but the exact opposite of that. Tears started flowing down Rachel's eyes. She knew she hurt Ross. But she thought that over time. Ross would get over her like he always seems. Always. With Julie, Emily, Mona, Charlie. Was there some more tat she didn't know about. That was for the better though. That she didn't know. Just liek it was better for him not to know.
"Are you okay?" The strange man spoke and moved his hands all over Rachel's back trying to comfort her. Everyone in the room except for Emma and Ella who didn't know what was happening wodered who this strange man was. But, they knew. Somehow. He made Rachel happy.
"Honey. This is them. The famous 'coffee house' gang that you we're always talking about we should make a show of." Rachel said whipping her tears away and getting Ella out of Phoebe's arm. They just looked at him. AWED more like it. Since Chandler had that 'femininity' in him. He too way awed at some way.
"So Rach. Who is he? He seems to know all of us." Monica asked her best friend after this man just shook hands with all of them guessing their names and. Not to be surprised. Guessed it so right!
"Oh. This is TJ. He's the head of the New York Warner Bros. and Fox Entertainment. Beside all that. He's really good with Emma." Rachel said introducing TJ to the rest of the gang. Phoebe looked at Monica just after Rachel kissed TJ on the cheek. It wasn't really feeling right to them that Rachel was with some other guy than Ross. Although. This guy seemed to be the total package.
"You're Ella's father?" Phoebe asked. It was the question that Monica and Chandler wanted to ask but didn't want to because,well, just because it seemed like inappropriate.
"Karen. I think you should tell them. THE TRUTH," TJ said emphasizing THE TRUTH. Rachel nodded. She knew that she should go with her plan. But. TJ didn't want to. She also knew that TJ wouldn't get mad if all of the sudden, she did go with her plan.
"Uhm. TJ...he's..."
CUT BACK TO ROSS
"What if that was my baby?" He asked hiself sitting on the dock of the New York shore.
"Yeah. What if..." He said and smilied. He then. just thought and reminiced of the past and got reminded of all the what if's in his life. Almost all of them. Well. ALL OF THEM. Regarding Rachel...
Please r&r. I'm still having a hard time with thinking people want me to continue with the story because that was only the first chapter. So. Please tell me if I should continue...
