Rachel slowly rose from Ross' bed. She blinked her eyes a couple times to wake up. It had been quite a night. Was it real or was it all a dream? The diamond that glistened in the morning sun confirmed it. She took her hand and brushed her brownish bangs from her eyes. There he was , dark brooding features and olive skin. His black hair was laying across the pillow as his massive legs were sprawled in the bed. His long hairy arms enveloped Rachel , giving her a sense of belonging. Maybe more than she had ever felt in her life. Everything was perfect.

In another NY apartment, another couple was waking up. Monica had a contented look on her face. She couldn't believe that she was actually waking up with a smile, it had been quite a while. She sighed and then looked over to see a man laying his head on hers. His sandy brown hair fell over his eyes and his large hands encapsulated her. It finally dawned on her. The man who had spent the night was her friend, Chandler. Apparently, when they were watching the horror movie, Chandler was so tired that he just decided to fall asleep on her. Monica couldn't explain the feeling that she had. After all, it was only Chandler. He stretched and then grinned at her. Overnight stubble brushed her chin from his face. Not registering where he was or who he was with, he was just contented enough to go back to sleep. It took a few moments for it to register, then he shot up and screamed . "AAAAAAH!!!" Jumping from the chair, he startled Monica.

"I'm not that horrible looking." Monica retorted.

"It's not that, you're beautiful." Chandler said. "I mean, what happened?"

Monica rose from the couch and proceeded to fold her grandmother's afghan. " We were watching a movie and fell asleep." She said unemotionally. "Nothing more, nothing less." Chandler got up and looked around. "Is Rachel home?"

"Nope, she is probably with Ross." Monica said as she remembered . "Oh my God, they are all going to be coming in here. And they are going to see ." she started to panic.

"Nothing, they are going to see you making breakfast and me coming in afterwards." Chandler started toward the door. " I am going back to my place and then come back later and no one will be the wiser." Chandler stood for one moment to drink in the picture that was before him. Her dark hair was mussed up but she still was such a beautiful sight in the morning with those ruby lips and those blue eyes. She was wearing an old t shirt of her brothers , but Ross never looked that good in that shirt anyway. Monica froze as she noticed Chandler staring at her. "Something wrong?' she asked as he stood there. Chandler just shrugged his shoulders and put his hands in his pockets. "Nope." He said as he sauntered out the door. Monica may not have been physically in front of him, but she was still in his thoughts as he opened the door to his and Joey's.

"Hi there." Chloe replied cheerily. She had nothing on except for Joey's Rangers jersey. It was obvious that once again Chandler was reminded of how he was with women. By now his one friend was engaged to the love of his life and his other best friend was doing what he did best , sleeping with many women and never calling them again. The girl from the copy store was obviously Joey's latest conquest. Chandler just sighed and then opened his door.

Monica stood at the kitchen counter and stirred the pancake batter. But as she stirred there was one thing that wouldn't leave her mind. She was actually smiling as she cooked this morning. She laughed at his jokes, and she was reminded of the sunlight that caught his sandy brown hair after he woke up. But she couldn't let any of this cloud the day because she knew what everyone would want to celebrate. It was Rachel's day and the last thing she wanted to do was steal her thunder. At that moment , the door flew open and her roommate ran inside screaming. "I'm engaged!!!!" Monica was so startled by this that the bowl flew from her hands and crashed on the floor. Rachel threw her arms around Monica. "We're finally going to be sisters for real." Monica tore herself away long enough to grab a towel and wipe up the mess. "That's just great, but look at this mess." She got down on her knees and cleaned up the batter.

"Hey you know, Rach isn't the only one who got engaged." Ross said as he came into the kitchen. Monica got up off the floor and threw her arms around her big brother. "I'm so happy for you and I know this one is going to work out." She went back to her cleaning . Ross took the towel from her and then said. "Breakfast is on me. I 'm the happiest man in the world ." He then proceeded to kiss Rachel. At least someone was in love thought Monica.

Chandler walked out of his room and was confronted by his roommate. Joey had obviously been up to go to the bathroom or eat one of his six daily meals.

"Hey, where have you been?" Joey grinned as he grabbed the peanut butter from the cupboard.

"Out." Chandler said .

Joey nodded ."I know that, but where and the bigger question is who were you with?"

Chandler was not ready for this. "I was with no one. I just lost track of time and then came home." He said uneasily. "if you will excuse me, some of us do have to jobs to go to." He went in and slammed his door. Joey just went back to making his sandwich.

Phoebe ran in the door and threw her arms around Ross and Rachel. "I told you guys you were lobsters. I knew it!" Ross backed away and looked at Phoebe . "How did you know we were engaged?' Phoebe just looked at him and said. "I'm psychic , duh.?"

The girls sat on the couch talking excitedly about the wedding. Ross just sighed and picked up a magazine . He knew that this wouldn't be his wedding but Rachel's . They were all sitting and waiting for Joey and Chandler to show up so they could go out and celebrate their engagement. Finally they showed up,.

"We're all going out for breakfast. Ross is paying." Monica announced as the guys patted him on the back. Chandler just looked over at Monica and smiled . She grinned at him as well, hoping that no one would see.

"I'm so hungry, I could eat a horse." Joey said.

"So what else is new, except the fact that Diamond Jim Geller is paying." Smirked Chandler.

"Hey a guy doesn't get engaged every day." Ross exclaimed.

"You do." Chandler replied.
