The New Beginning - The Story of Ross and Rachel

The One With The Thanksgiving Dinner

It's been almost two months since Rachel got discharged from the hospital. She's now has passed the tricky first trimester and is on her second trimester. Rachel is 16 weeks pregnant and her bump started to show. It is a lovely Thanksgiving morning in the Green Geller apartment. Ben came to spend the Thanksgiving with them for the first time. Emma couldn't be any happier to finally see her half brother again. Since Ross and Rachel got back together, Emma has this special bond with Ben. They would play together all the time and she would ask for him whenever he's not around.

This morning Ross woke up with a pleasant voice in his ears.

"Daddy wake up!!" Emma screamed at his ears as she started to shake his arms

He opened his eyes slowly and gave her the biggest smile, rolled her to his chest and tickled his little girl. Rachel watched them the entire time and she started to giggle. Emma has this mischief side of her that she clearly got from her dad. He looked around and saw Rachel was sitting beside him while reading a fashion magazine, Ben sat down in the corner of the bed watching cartoon, while their youngest joined his brother soon after.

"Well this is a pleasant way to wake up in the morning. Good morning." He leaned over to kiss his wife

"And good morning to you too." He continued as he kissed her baby bumps.

She smiled at him and fixed his messy hair.

"They all somehow woke up early today and decided to bother us. I just let them in because I don't want to get up from the bed yet." She explained

He giggled at her explanation. She suddenly came closer to him and proudly smile.

"And you know what? Ben started to call me 'mom' today. He knocked on the door while holding Emma's hand and then he called me mom." She smiled as she started to reminiscing the event.

"That's great" He smiled proudly at her and gave her a hug.

But then he suddenly remembered something. This is it. This is the dream he keep on having. Spending his morning with their little family doing nothing in their bed. Only this time, the reality is even better than he could've ever dream. He's here, married to the love of her life and soon their little family is expanding.

"This is the dream" he mumbled to himself and smile.

"What?" She asked as she couldn't really catch what he was saying.

"Nothing, it is silly." He tried to avoided the question

She came closer to him and whined.

"Come on tell me Ross. What were you saying?"

"Alright" he finally gave in

"Promise me you won't laugh." He continued

"Okay, I promise." She smiled

"Okay." He took a breath and continued.

"I keep having this dream a while ago. The dream was me and my wife enjoying weekend in bed and our kids come running in and leaps up on the bed and we all read paper together. Then, all of us would fight over the science section. Today reminded me of that dream." He explained

"Why would we fight over the science section?" She chuckled

"You said you wouldn't laugh."He started to sulk

She gave him a kiss and smiled

"Alright.. I'm sorry. Was I on that dream?"

"Maybe" he replied

"Maybe??" She raised her voice

"I mean it was you when we were dating, but when we broke up, her face become blurry." He tried to explained
