Ross woke up the next morning to find that Rachel had already gone to work. Perfect, he thought. He got up and kissed his daughter on the forehead. "Emma sweetie, would you like to help your daddy ask your mommy to marry him?" He knew Emma couldn't fully understand the concept, but she smiled and laughed so he took that as a "yes." He got Emma dressed and went to pick up Ben. He knocked at the door. Carol opened it. "Hey Carol. Can I come in?"

"Sure." Carol didn't know why Ross was there, he wasn't supposed to pick up Ben for a few more days. But she was anxious to find out so she let him in and offered him some coffee. "Carol I need to ask you something."

"Okay." She was scared inside, not knowing what he was doing, and the last time he asked her this he wanted to know if she was still a lesbian. (A/N: I know that never happened. Just go with it.) Ross and Carol went into another room to discuss the subject. When they came out, they both had a big smile on their faces. Carol spoke up, "I'll talk to Susan when she gets home and let her know what's going on."

"Thanks Carol."

"No problem, I'm so happy for you."

"Thanks. I'll see you tomorrow then?"

"Definitely." They both hugged and told their goodbyes, and Ross took Ben's hand while holding Emma in the other and went off towards Winchester. "Dad what's goin on?" Ben was confused. Ross told Ben what he was planning to do and he just smiled. "Does this mean I'm going to have three mommies?" Ross didn't realize that yes, he would have three mommies. How awkward. I never thought about that before. Quickly Ross thought of another way to explain it because it was so – not normal. "No, it means you will still have two mommies, but you will also have a step-mommy."

"Oooh. Okay." Ross put the two in the cab. "Winchester please." The cab drove off.

There was a knock at the door. Chandler didn't yet know what was going on, but Monica got a call earlier that day from Ross. "Hey Monica, why is Ross here?" Chandler asked before letting him in. "I can't tell you." Chandler was even more confused. "Well why not?"

"Because you can't keep your mouth shut."

"I sooo can!"

"No you can't. You told Rachel that Ross was in love with her, you told that kid he was adopted, and you told the triplets that Phoebe gave birth to them."

"Well", Chandler couldn't think of anything to say. "Well whatever!" He smiled to himself, thinking that he actually won that little debate. He opened the door. "Hey Ross what's going on?"

"I can't tell you." Chandler shut the door. "Oh come ON what is it with you Gellers?"

"Nothing, Chandler. You just can't keep your mouth shut." Chandler couldn't think of anything to say next. Monica walked down the stairs with a twin in each hand. "Hey Ross, you ready?"

"Yes."

"Okay, Chandler…"

Monica told Chandler part of what was going to happen, but not all because she didn't think Chandler could keep it to himself. They walked out the front door, only to find Mike, Phoebe, and Joey already waiting there. "Okay. We're all here. Let's go take care of this." Phoebe noticed that Carol and Susan weren't there, and they were part of the whole thing. "Wait Ross what about Carol and Susan?"

"They are going to take care of things on their own. Right now it's just us." They all managed to fit in Monica and Chandler's SUV, and headed towards the mall. When they got there, the full plan was disclosed to Chandler. Monica said "Okay Chandler now that you know, you are going to have to resist all temptation to tell Rachel. Don't tell anyone actually." He agreed he could keep it to himself. Monica spoke up to the group. "Okay Ross, Joey, Chandler, and Ben take Jack and go get your tuxes. Me, Phoebe, Erica, and Emma will go get our cocktail dresses." Joey started laughing. "Oh Joey grow up." Ross ordered. "Hehe but she said…"

"I know what I said!"

"Okay jeez Monica."

After the nine of them got their stuff, Monica drove them all back to the house in Winchester, and the rest of them went home. Ross took Ben home first, and then went home with Emma to his apartment. He opened the door. "Hi, where have you been?"

"Hey Rach, um, I took Emma to the park."

"Oh."

"Hey Rach, you know tomorrow is our anniversary." Rachel laughed. "Which one?" Ross hid a smile. "The first one."

"Shouldn't we be celebrating the most recent one?"

"No, the way I see it, we should have been together for all of those ten years, so I am just going to go by the first one."

"Ross." Rachel went up and hugged him. What he just said made her heart completely melt. "So I'm going to take you somewhere. But it has to be a surprise so you're going to be blindfolded okay?"

"Okay." Ross told her he was going to bed but Rachel said she was going to stay up and watch a little TV. I wonder what he has planned. Hmm. I can't wait.

Haha a little cliffhanger for you. The proposal comes next, so don't worry. I didn't have time to write it after this chapter because I have to go get ready for senior prom. Wish me luck and talk to you guys later, or update, rather. LOL
