As always I own nothing …

It felt both nice and weird. Thinking that they were together for the last time. They went to Central Perk one final time and ordered their usual drinks. They didn't want that moment to end but they couldn't stay there forever. So, what next? One of them had made plans already.

"How about we go to the restaurant?" Ross proposed. "Sure, good idea" Monica said. "Yea, I'm kinda hungry" Joey complained. "Now that's new" Chandler teased him as Phoebe laughed.

They got ready to leave and Gunther said his goodbyes. I'll miss you so much, Rachel, he thought.

A little while later they were at the restaurant. Joey was looking at the menu even before taking place. He was unbelievable but then again it was Joey. They ordered and the drinks were there soon enough. Beside Rachel's drink was a bottle that looked like a perfume bottle. It wasn't totally transparent, it was red but you could clearly see something inside.

"Look at that" Rachel said amazed. "It's beautiful" Monica added. "And it seems like there's something inside" Phoebe observed. Rachel opened it and took out the piece of paper. She unfolded the small letter. As soon as she started reading it she had that good feeling inside her. The others were wondering what it was all about. Ross had told nobody about this.

Rachel,

Because love is eternal… And love is what I feel…

I apologize for everything I did wrong

But trust me I've loved you all along

Never again will I hurt you

Nothing is more precious to me than you

We are a family

All together we can be happy

There are not enough words to tell you how I feel

But trust me this is very real

The passion inside me burns for you

The way my heart only beats for you

Never have I been happier

Than the moment we finally got together

I want to be the shoulder you can cry on

I want to always be there for you from now on

For the good times

As well as the bad times

Never will you be alone

I promise you to never leave you on your own

Whatever you do

I'll always be near you

You're the only one I've ever loved

Close to my heart is where you belong

Never far from you do I ever want to be

Forever I want it to be just you and me

Love always,

Ross (poem written by myself, Maryline, don't copy!)

Rachel didn't know what to say, no words came to her mind, she was happily shocked. After a while, Ross took the letter from Rachel's hand and kneeled down beside her.

"Rachel, I've loved you since I first set my eyes on you so many years ago back in school. You're everything I've ever wanted, ever dreamed of" he said with tears in his eyes. "I couldn't dream of someone better than you… and you gave me the most beautiful gift ever, our little girl Emma".

Now Rachel wasn't just sobbing, tears wouldn't stop. Everyone got emotional. Even Chandler started feeling tears roll down his cheeks.

Ross reached inside his pocket for a small box. Oh my God, Rachel thought, is this really happening?

"Rachel Green, will you marry me?"

She smiled big time as everyone was looking at her in the restaurant, every table had their eyes on them.

She couldn't believe what was happening now but she never felt happier. "Yes, Ross, I will marry you" she finally answered. He kissed her and held her tight.

Let's hope he won't say the wrong name this time, Chandler thought remembering the Londonian Ross & Emily wedding when he said Rachel.

Everyone applauded.
