Phoe::smiling:: Goodnight!!
Rach::nods, kind of biting her lip::

M&C’s Rach is sitting at the table its a few days later, her cold is gone
and she has somehow avoided Ross all week, so they don’t have to talk about
the kiss or about their feelings. She knows she loves him but doesn’t think
he feels the same. Monica has told her “Stop being a wuss and just do it!!!”
Yet, she hasn’t.

Ross::walks in:: Hey Rach
Rach:: Hi
Ross::sits across from her:: so......
Rach:: yea I should get going.......
Ross:: Rachel, are you mad at me or something?? You’ve been avoiding me all week!
Rach:: Im not mad at you it’s just when we kissed, it kind of got me thinking!
Ross:: What about?
Rach:: well how thi.......
::Monica and Chandler come in::
Rach::sighs::
Mon:: Hey guys!
Ross:: Hi!
Rach:: Hi
Mon:: Hey Rach, I have a question for you?
Rach:: what’s that?
Mon:: Will you be my Maid of honour?
Rach:: OMG!! YES!!!
::They hug::
Rach:: What about Phoebe??
Mon:: she can be a brides maid!
Rach:: OK!
Ross:: so Chandler, have you thought about who’s gonna be your best man?
Chan:: not really, but Mon can I talk to you for a sec?
Mon:: sure..... ::walks to the living room::
Chan::follows:: I want Ross to be my best man
Mon:: then tell him!
Chan:: but what about Joey??
Mon:: Well why do you want Ross?
Chan:: cause then him and Rach will be able to walk down the isle together they will be close again! They’d have to realise they love each other!!
Mon:: that’s so sweet
Chan:: well do you think Joey would understand?
Mon:: yea he would
Chan:: OK! ::Walks back to the kitchen:: Ross I want you to be my best man!
Ross:: really??
Chan:: yep
Ross:: thanks man!!
Chan:: sure
Ross:: I hope Joey doesn’t get mad
Chan:: he won’t
Ross:: OK if you say so.......I should go bye everyone ::leaves::

A few days later everyone is in Central Perk (minus Rachel and Ross)

Ross::walks in:: hiiiiii (his special, sexy way)
Joey:: what’s wrong man??
Ross:: I got a job offer in California
Mon:: OMG
Ross:: I know! Its for a television show about dinosaurs. It’s what I’ve always wanted to do!!
Chan:: what are you going to do?
Ross:: I don’t know! I cant leave Ben and you guys.......::says quietly:: and Rachel
Phoe:: coughs:: tell her!
Ross:: Pheebs, they already know!
Phoe:: oh
Mon:: but you should tell her you love her!
Ross:: no she wont say it back and I cant take that kind of hurt!
Mon:: I’m telling you she WILL say it back!!!
Ross:: you think?
Joey:: its so obvious Ross you guys love each other, just go for it!
Ross:: OK I will, where is she??
Chan:: where we all should be, work!

Phoe:: NO NO NO don’t put it off, you’ll never do it then!
Ross:: no, I have an idea, bye guys

Ross’ later that night

Ross::on the couch with a pad of paper:: OK pros and cons, cons first......if I tell her and she doesn’t say it back, I tell her but she tells me to take the job and forget about her, I tell her and she says it back but says it wont work and she cant take that risk..........OK Pros....she says it back and I stay here, she says it back and I go and she goes with me.......damn it this is too hard!! ::Throws the pad on the table::

::someone knocks at the door::

Ross::gets up and gets it, its Rachel:: hey what’s up?
Rach:: Monica told me.....
Ross:: what did she tell you??
Rach:: about the job?
Ross:: oh
Rach:: are you going to take it??
Ross:: I don’t know
Rach:: don’t, please don’t...
Ross:: why?
Rach:: cause, we wont see you every day, and that would be so hard!
Ross:: Yea I know, I cant imagine not seeing you everyday......
Rach::: yea......
Ross:: but I also thought I couldn’t live without you as my girlfriend
Rach:: oh Ross.......
Ross:: its true, I don’t think I could live without you in my life at all..........
Rach::starts crying a little::
Ross:: oh Rach, please don’t cry.....
Rach:: no Ross its nothing you did, just what you said, made me think of that song you dedicated to me after you made that list......
Ross::: with or without you by U2.......
Rach:: yea
Ross:: Rach, im sorry, I’ve always kind of been a jerk to you! I think its because I love you so much and im always afraid if im normal around you wont like me at all cause well you know im basically the same I just probably......
