A New Beginning

Chapter 6.

Then it's Peace

Rebecca caught up with them at the car.

"Mom!?" she yelled, "Don't leave me again!"

Rachel turned around. She had told herself that she wasn't going to forgive Rebecca for being like that, but one look at her crying face and her, looking like Rachel herself, she opened her arms and gave Rebecca a hug, she needed that.

"I love you mom." Rebecca cried, "So much.. you're really back.. I can't believe it.. you're back.."

"And I'm staying for good." Rachel whispered, "I'm running the store in New York."

Rebecca moved away from her, "Dad always told me I looked like you, he was right."

"I gotta say that you're much more pretty." Rachel smiled, "This face is getting too old."

Rebecca shook her head, "Not too old to meet her daughter."

They went into the car and drove the long way back. On the way, Rebecca had to ask: "Did you call me Becky when I was little?"

"Hmm, I was the only one though." Rachel gave her a quick glance, "Everybody else called you Bec, I guess that one have stocked hasn't it?"

Rebecca laughed, "Hmm…. Can you tell us about our sisters?"

"And brother." Rachel smiled.

"Am I not the only guy?" Jonathan said, smiling in relief.

"No, you have a brother named Joshua, he is 14 years old. You guys came with one year or so, right after each other. There was a time where I barely remembered how it was like to not be pregnant."

Rebecca laughed, "What about my sisters?"

"Yeah, There's Gretchen, she's 12, your dad has never met her before today, I was pregnant with her when I left, she's the only one of you kids who looks like Ross."

"Does she?" Jonathan asked.

"Hmm," Rachel nodded, "She's all him, nothing of me.. and then there's Rain, she will remind you a lot of Phoebe."

"Cool." Rebecca mumbled, "How old is she?"

"She's 13." Rachel smiled, "And the most exiting for you Becky, would be Clara.."

"Clara?"

"Yeah, she's your twin sister."

"I'm a twin?"

"Not just a twin, honey," Rachel dreaded this, "But you guys are identical."

"What?" Rebecca said, "I don't believe that."

"Well, you will when you meet her. She's at Monica and Chandlers. We're here by the way."

The went out of the car and buzzed the door. Rachel just realizing that they forgot to pick up the other kids. Aw, Phoebe and Monica would understand.

"Is that you mom?" Rain asked, "Isn't this exiting? Monica told me that I could answer this!"

"That's great Rain honey, but I'm out here with Rebecca and Jonathan, so if you buzz us in you'll meet your sister and brother."

"All right mom, I'm also missing you already. Daddy is kind of boring, he's just talking to Gret about dinosaurs. You told me he wouldn't do that all the time, but he's like.."

"That's great Rain, but the door…"

"Sorry, but this isn't over mom, you have to make him stop when you come, because…"

"The door, Rain!"

Finally Rain pressed the bottom.

Rachel looked at the kids, "She's always like that. You'll get used to it. One of the reasons that I took her was because her and your father didn't have that much in common, she'd probably had killed herself if she'd been with him."

Rebecca laughed, "Later, then will you tell us why we got separated the way we did?"

"Of course, if you wanna know!"

They came to the door and Rachel opened up.

"Mommy!" Rain screamed, "Daddy is killing me!"

"I am not!" Ross laughed. He had Gretchen on his lap, and she hadn't looked happier ever in her life.

Clara came out from the bedroom, "Mom, this is so weird, Joey just finished telling me about how you used to live in that room, I couldn't quite believe, that…"

Clara trailed of when her eyes caught Rebecca, "Oh my God."

"The worst part." Rachel whispered to Jonathan.

"Clara and Rebecca." Ross said, getting up, "Don't freak out now."

"I don't know about Becky," Rachel whispered, "But Clara wont."

"This is so cool!" Clara yelled.

"This is so creepy." Rebecca whispered.

"Come here sweetie." Rachel said, taking Rebecca's hand.

"That skirt..." Clara finally said.

"Yeah," Rachel admitted, "I kind of figured that Mary had to be friends with Becky, so that's why I gave it to her. Don't be mad at me anymore, Clara."

"I'm not, mom." Clara took Rebecca's hand, "So, we're twins, huh?"

Rebecca nodded, "This is gonna take some time to get used to."

"Well, alright." Joshua said from the couch, "How about the rest of us?"

"Where's my kids?" Monica finally yelled.

"We forgot them, Mon." Rachel smiled, "Sorry…"

"Mon, will understand, right?" Ross said, "And ehm, Jonathan, Rebecca.. this is Rain, Gretchen and Joshua."

"I have a brother!" Jonathan said, "This is great. Hi siblings!"

"Hi!" Gretchen said, "You have the same eyes as me, now I wont be totally alone and left out."

"No, you wont." Jon said, "And is this Rain?"

"Hmm," Rain said, "You're not talking about dinosaurs are you?"

"No."

"Then you'll be a great brother."

Rebecca and Clara still stood in awe and looked at each other. They were totally look a likes, except for their hair. Clara's was a little longer.

Gretchen yawned, "Daddy, I'm tired, take me home."

"But honey." Ross said, "Your mother has gotten a home here, so you aren't going with me."

"Are they not coming with us?" Rebecca asked.

"No, Becky." Rachel said, "Monica has gotten us a place, I don't know where, but we have to go check it out. I think it'll be now, 'cause I'm getting tired."

"But we don't know anything yet!" Joshua screamed.

"Then how about this, Rach?" Ross tried, "You can all go with me. We have plenty of mattresses. Joshua can crash on one in Jon's room and the girls can crash in Bec's? I'll crash on the couch, you can get my bed?"

Rachel looked at the kids, they all seemed so happy about it so she agreed; "Okay.. Monica, you'll show me the place tomorrow, right?"

Monica smiled, "You're gonna love it."

They all hugged each other and the reunited family headed home to Ross' place.

Okay, this chapter was a little short, but the next one is longer. Thanks for reading this, Stessa.
