The New Beginning - The Story of Ross and Rachel

The One With Phoebe's Baby Shower

A couple week later, Rachel and Monica threw Phoebe a baby shower at Monica's Westchester home. While the moms will spend their day at the baby's shower, the dads, Mike, Ross and Chandler are going to bring their kids, Emma and the twins to the park. It took almost an hour to reach Monica's house from Ross and Rachel's apartment. One of the reason why they didn't want to move to the suburbs area yet, they hate the commute. It is not practical, especially when they both works around Manhattans. Ross drove their SUV that they bought shortly after they got back together. Rachel was sitting next to him, looking for a CD to play, while Emma was sleeping at her carseat. Ross always enjoys riding car with his family. He casually took a peek at their daughter sleeping soundly through the driver's mirror and he couldn't help but smile brightly. Ross is a hopeless romantic when it's comes to his family. He put their framed pictures all around the house and of course at his office at NYU. Another side Rachel crazy about him.

Rachel saw Ross peeking at their daughter and smiling like a fool and she teased him, "Hey, mister. Keep your eyes on the road please."

He giggled and teased her back, "Are you jealous?"

She chuckled.

"You're so..in love with your daughter." She said as she smiling at him

"It's because she reminds me of someone."

"And who's that?" She raised her eyebrows

"You." He slightly take a look at her and smiled

"Oh my gosh. That's cheesy. It gives me goosebumps." She showed him her arms to proof a point.

He giggled as he stretched his right arm and messed her hair up.

"Hey! It took me hours to perfect this hair!" She quickly whined

"Ssss... You'll wake her up." He giggled.

He surely love to tease Rachel at every chance.

Soon after, they arrived at Monica's place. Rachel took out Phoebe's present from the trunk, while Ross held sleeping Emma on his arms. They walked toward the door and then she rang the bell. Soon, Monica answered the door and let them in.

"Is Phoebe here yet?" Rachel asked

"Yes, she's in the kitchen looking for something to eat." Monica replied

"Then I'll go to the kitchen too. I'm starving." She said

"But you just ate like an hour ago." Ross confused

"I'm eating for two Ross." She replied, slightly annoyed.

"Okay, I'm sorry." He avoided her glare.

As soon as Rachel left, Monica teased her brother.

"Wow, you looked really scared Ross."

"Well you know she can be scary during her pregnancy." He replied as he looked at her in the eyes with the 'you know what I mean' look on his face.

She laughed at her brother's silly face.

"Anyway, is Chandler and Mike ready?" He asked

"I think so. I'll go get them." Monica walked over the twins room to get Chandler

Ross walked into the kitchen to say goodbye to Rachel. Rachel was eating cookies with Phobe. He walked over and kissed her lips.

"I'll leave in five minutes. Do you want me to get something on the way back?" He asked Rachel

"I'm good. Just don't leave Emma alone. Watch her every move." She demanded him

"She's going to be fine. Playground isn't a dangerous place for kids. See, it's BUILD for kids." He joked
