Find my Way to You

Stay with Me

"Ross honey.." Monica said, "Rachel's gone."

Before he knew it Ross woke up in Rachel's hospital room sweating and breathing heavily. It was just a dream. She was alive, laying there beside him. Her hand in his. He had came to the hospital with her and must've tell asleep.

The doctor and the rest of the group followed into her room and they all waited for him to talk.

"It looks like Rachel tried to commit suicide." The doctor spoke muffling through her papers. "She seems to have overdosed."

"What?" Ross asked in disbelief. "That's not like Rachel, I mean she has so much to live for"

"no she didn't." Monica interjected tearing up.

"she lost you.. Ross. Don't you understand?" Phoebe finished exasperated

Ross let it all sink in before turning to her and breaking down. "It's all my fault. Rach, I'm so sorry, please open your eyes." he pleaded

The rest of the gang looked at each other and decided to give him a minute and turned to leave.

Ross sat beside her and grabbed her hand and squeezed it. "Rachel, I need you. I was so stupid before, and now that you're not with me right now I know how you must've felt and I am so so sorry. Please wake up so I can see you're beautiful eyes."

He knelt down to her and whispered "I love you." before breaking down again.

A week passed and Rachel still hadn't waken up. Ross stayed by her side the whole time and never left her. Today was the day that Emily was supposed to arrive and Ross was too busy to call her and break things off.

Emily arrived at the hospital where she was told to find Ross. She crept up to the doorframe and saw him in there with Rachel crying. She listened carefully and heard Ross talking to her about how much he loved her and couldn't wait to be with her. Emily immediately knew she couldn't let Rachel have Ross and came up with a plan.

Emily ran outside to the nearest phone booth and dialed Ross' number.

"Hello?" he answered sadly

"Is this Ross Geller?" Emily asked pulling off her best American accent.

"Yes?"

"I'm sorry to inform you that your son Ben has been in a terrible accident in.. um Maine and is in the hospital." Emily snickered at her plan.

"is he alright? I-I'll be right there!" Ross panicked and hung up. He ran out to find Monica getting coffee

"Mon, I just got a call that said Ben was in the hospital in Maine. I have to go see him, but Rachel's here and I can't leave her, I just.." Ross mumbled off quickly.

"Go see Ben, Ross. We'll look after Rachel. " Monica replied and Ross took off to go find Ben.

---------------------------------------------

The next day, Rachel woke up and looked around the room to find Emily sitting there with a grin on her face.

"Who the hell saved me." Rachel said with gritted teeth.

"Oh you're awake, dear." Emily said walking over to her.

"I wish I wasn't." Rachel said letting a tear escape. "Where is everyone?"

"Well the gangs here somewhere and Ross is, well I'm not sure actually. When I got here we just couldn't get ourselves out of the bedroom so he's probably napping." she giggled.

"oh.." was all Rachel could say and rolled over covering her mouth up with her hands so Emily wouldn't hear her crying.

"Yeah. I told him that he should come see you but he was like, 'it's not like I'll ever be seeing her again anyway' so.."

"He really said that?" Rachel whispered. "wait.. He went to London."

"He what?" Emily didn't know he was planning on going and had to cover it up.

"Oh, well I called and told him I would rather come here for a few days... Well I better get going." Emily chuckled and left. As soon as she was gone, Rachel broke down and sobbed into her pillow.
