A/N: The Gangs goes to New York for the State Championship game as I give my version of the Ross and Rachel Rain kiss. Enjoy.

12: Letter 11

November 11, 2017 6:30 A.M.

Early Morning, not a perfect time to be at school. But unfortunately, due to certain people not being around due to family obligations. I was forced onto the fans bus for the championship game.

"Does every bus ride to Syracuse take 3 ½ Hours?"

A guy who I known I had seen before now popped his head in behind me.

"Well you seem unlike the type to be on a fans bus."

I laughed myself silly while trying to jog his picture. He was someone I known I had seen before, but I really couldn't place the face for the life of me.

"Mark, I sit across from you and Thomas Bindlebeep in Independent Living…You once called me a toad for puking up mushrooms at a party in middle school."

"Oh, Man that was a riot…" My laughing killed his mood as we got the announcements as to our busses were boarding. The whole ride to Syracuse I kept looking behind me at Mark chatting it up with Chandlers table mate in Chemistry, thinking about Ross and why somehow I'm feeling this way.

"My futures Already changing. Maybe its good thing that I'm talking with him. One step closer to saving Ross."

The morning sun peaked high over the NY Interstate signaling what would come hopefully down the line.

7 Hours Later.

The game, wow is all I have to think. An epic duel back and forth between us and North Utica. It was with 3 minutes left and a tied score that I came back from the restrooms with Monica in tow as Phoebe and Chandler were screaming at the crowd below.

"What the…No…"

"Anything we missed…." Monica's voice was high pitched as we could hear the other fans drown out the pa.

"Anderson just scored again."

"Wow that is one great running back 173 Yards and 3 TDS." Phoebe seemed a little too into giving the stats. As we saw Joey lead the offense back onto the field, my eyes turned to Ross in the crowd stretching that golden leg of his. We definitely are in uncharted territory now. The run our school team had been on had been nothing short of miraculous. The nature of course had seemingly been altered the moment we decided to befriend Ross.

"Yeah!" My attention was at Joey somehow running for a 35 yard scamper to the right sideline that nearly toppled Coach Sherman. But that point forward was very anemic yard wise and the closest we could get was the 26 with 4th and 1 and 37 Seconds left.

"Boy Ross has got to be nervous right now." The glimpses of Ross that were being shown on the replay board of the Carrier Dome told it all as he was covered in sweat despite the climate controlled air. Most of what occurred next I didn't get a glimpse at cause I could now once again get a glimpse of that guy I sat with on the ride over hear again.

"Why am I…"

Ross Is one thing, Mark on the other hand him I'm starting to have visions of.

"Rach…Rach…RACHEL!"

The pokes of Phoebe got me back to reality as Ross lined up for the kick. No surprise that it went through, but the surprise occurred as our fanbase celebrated like crazy. Joey and Ross somehow got us onto the field. We couldn't have pictured how this day was, that letter never mentioned this, and I was so glad it was my choices that got me here. Ross was happy as well hugging teammates and family. At midfield Ross and Joey joined us as the 6 of us got a group picture which immediately became our group pics on our sites. I may have taken the fans bus up but my knack at forging my Dads signature allowed me to leave with them. As Ross smiled at me while we were leaving the Carrier Dome I could tell one thing.

"This doesn't seem like the guy who would want to kill himself, not after this."

4 Hours Later I was in Phoebes Room at the hotel. The gang had luckily gotten rooms where the team was staying with the exception of me as I was stuck on the fans bus. But now with Phoebe I was checking my phone at the pages of the letter saying what would still be coming.

"What would Ross have done to him to make him that sad."

A knock suddenly came on my door as I could here Phoebe snoring. I opened it wondering who could be knocking this late. My body shook realizing who it was.

"Hi…"

"Ross, what are you doing here."

"I couldn't sleep, and not cause of the celebrating."

"Well why?"

"There was something I wanted to ask you ever since I dumped Julie and I couldn't bring myself to say It."

Why would he do this now?

"I have a movie here and I figured we could watch it together. Its called Your Name and I really like it I'm sure you will too. Does this room have…"

He walked on in while I was in complete shock.

NOVEMBER 11

ROSS INVITES YOU TO WATCH YOUR NAME WITH HIM

YOU KISS FOR THE FIRST TIME

"Oh here it is…" Ross found the DVD Player and quickly loaded the movie, as the room brightened and Phoebe stirred in the adjacent bed for a second but again went still. But still though I was not having it.

"Ross you need to go."

"No Rach, I think we need to watch this."

My nervousness continued to get the best of me. "Ross, I'm not supposed to be here, if the staff finds out the school will know and it will cause…"

But Ross sat down unfazed as the movie started up. I saw a comet falling across the screen through a cloudbank and that got me intrigued.

"Woah…"

Now I sat by him on the bed just as the screen cut to black.

"SOME MORNINGS, I WAKE UP CRYING WITHOUT KNOWING WHY…" I don't remember much of the movie after that but it was around 40 minutes into it when Ross was explaining the logistics behind Taki and Mitsuha switching bodies that I went against the letters instincts.

"…Sleep caused them to hop minds and…" My lips immediately pressed onto his. Ross looked stunned momentarily. I continued while he tried to pull away.

"Ross…Please…"

He suddenly gave in and we made out on the bed while the movie continued bathing us in the glow. It was 5 minutes later when we got back up.

"I'm going to go Rach. Can I have the DVD Back when we get home."

Based on what happened I was too stunned to say anything else, so I nodded.

"Good Night Ms. Green."

He closed the door and I did the only thing reasonable that I could do.

"Lets see how this ends." I sat in bed watching the rest of the movie to full of disbelief to even sleep.
