Thanks for the reviews!!
This story should be ending soon (like in a few chapters or so), but I think I’m gonna start a new story, about Ross and Rachel’s lives after the finale.

With or Without You Chapter Eight- Reuniting Lovers
Rachel was practically flying down the stairs, only one name on her lips- Ross, Ross, Ross. When she reached the last flight of stairs, she practically jumped, frantically searching for her love. “ROSS!” she shouted. “ROSS! COME BACK!”
She ran around the hotel property moaning his name. “ROSS, DON’T LEAVE ME ROSS!” Stopping for a moment, Rachel scanned the darkness of her surrounding, only illuminated by the glare of the streetlights. Her eyes stopped at a man staggering across the walkway. She squinted a little and realized it was exactly the person she was looking for.
Rachel sprinted towards him and embraced him from behind. “Ross, thank God…” she sobbed into his back. Ross turned around and looked at Rachel. His face was scrunched up, as if he was trying to conceal the tears threatening to fall from his eyes.
“Rachel?” he asked softly. “Why are you here?”
“To stop you from making a huge mistake.”
“It’s not a mistake Rachel.”
“Yes it is,” Rachel replied. “If you go, what will happen to me?” Her voice was small and began to crack, and it broke Ross’ heart, just a little.
“You’ll find someone who can make you happy.”
“I hate arguing with you Ross. You make me happy… happier than I thought humanly possible. That fight we just had- it was stupid. That doesn’t mean you bail on ‘us’ like I did before. We’re lobsters Ross. We belong together.”
“But I can’t live knowing I’ve hurt you Rachel, I love you too much.”
Rachel pulled him into a hug. “You didn’t hurt me like I thought. Chandler told me what happened. I love you Ross.”
A slow smile spread across Ross’ face as he tightly hugged her back. “I’m sorry I scared you… I love you so much Rachel, more than you’ll ever know.”
“Shh…” she whispered as she shut him up with a kiss. “We have to call Mon; she was worried sick.”
Ross wrapped his arms around his love’s waist. “You know what would make me happy?”
“What?”
“If we spent the whole day in the suite, JUST you and me.” He replied as he nibbled on her neck. Ross looked up and smirked playfully, as their lips met in an electrifying kiss.
Rachel smiled. “The old Ross is finally back.”
Rachel smiled and planted a kiss on his cheek. “Let me find it honey.” She wriggled out of his grasp and strolled over to pick up the red bikini that lay in a disheveled pile on the floor. Giving Ross one last wink, she sauntered into the bathroom to change her clothes.
A few minutes later, Rachel emerged from the bathroom and headed over to Ross. She seductively wrapped her arms around his neck and pushed her scantily clad body into his arms. “Is this what you had in mind?” she breathed.
He was weak in the knees. “I’ll say…” He hugged her tightly.
Teasingly (and intentionally) breaking the mood of the moment, Rachel tore her lips from Ross’. “Well I’m gonna call Monica and tell her I’ve found you. Poor thing was worried to no end.”
Ross moaned, “You’re toying with me Rachel Greene.”
She batted her eyes innocently. “But I have to call your sister. She was so concerned…”
“Oh fine.”
“Hey Mon! It’s me!”
“Oh hey Rach… You sound… happy.”
“Yeah. Ross Geller and Rachel Green are back together again!” Rachel flopped onto the bed on her stomach, swinging her legs in the air.
“Yes! I’m so happy for you guys!
“I KNOW!” It was becoming increasingly difficult for Rachel to focus on the phone call. Ross crawled on top of her and began kissing the back of her neck. “Ross!” she whispered, swatting him from behind.
Ross immediately stopped teasing Rachel… for a little while at least. Soon his hands wrapped around her tiny waist, between her and the mattress, and he smothered her to himself.
Rachel moaned into the phone. “Mon, I’m going to have to call you back. Your brother’s in a really playful mood right now. Bye honey!”
Monica replied, “OK, eww. And goodbye Rachel!!” She hung up.
Rachel flipped herself over and was greeted by a passionate kiss from Ross.
Leave the rest up to your imagination (lol)!
Her eyes slowly fluttered open. “Hey you…” She used their trademark line while they were dating. “Good morning.”
“Good morning beautiful,” he replied.
“Last night was amazing huh?” she rhetorically whispered.
“Oh yes…” Ross replied, slowly leaning in to kiss her. “But we have to get up; we have a flight to catch.”
Rachel groaned, “Augh, what time is it honey?”
“7:30.”
She groaned again, “It’s so early.”
Ross smiled at her typical “Rachel-ness.” She never was a morning person. “Rach, our flight leaves at 11:00, and it takes half an hour to get to the airport.” He looked over at her, and gently stroked the bangs out of her eyes… her eyes that were nearly asleep once again. He quietly laughed to himself. Who am I kidding? I know she won’t wake up.”
Rachel rolled over, so she wasn’t facing him. She wished they didn’t have to leave today; more importantly she was exhausted, and fully drained of energy.
But Ross wasn’t going to let up. He scooped her up into his arms, cradling her like a baby, and carried her into the bathroom, lightly standing her up straight. “Rach, sweetie, we have to get ready.”
He undressed himself and gently undressed Rachel as well. Ross turned on the shower and they both stood under it. He looked at her, struggling to keep awake, and couldn’t help but laugh. “I love you Rach.”
Rachel looked up at him with her big blue gorgeous eyes.
“I love you too Ross.”
