Troy Bolton stood, in his hotel room, looking in the mirror adjusting his tie. Today, was a big day. For him, his family, most importantly his future. His tie was now perfectly placed on his suit. He glanced at his watch. He was still 45 minutes early. He sat down in a chair, contemplating on what was happening. She was happening. She was the girl. The girl who made him stop sleeping around. The girl who gave him everything, everything that she held close to her. The girl who showed him how to love. The girl, who he planned on spending the rest of his eternity with, starting today. She, the girl, was Gabriella Montez. Troy smiled just thinking about her, and now how much she meant to him. She kept him sane. His whole life has changed since she became apart of him.

my whole life has changed
Since you came in
I knew back then you were that special one
I'm so in love so deep in love you made my life complete
you are so sweet no one competes
glad you came into my life
you blind me with your love
with you I have no sight

Girl you open me,
I'm wide open and
I'm doing things I never do but
I feel so good,
I feel so good
why it take so long for me finding you
this is my story and
I'm telling you it's not fiction
it's surely a fact without you
right here having my back
I really don't know just where I'd be at

Troy smiled thinking about all the changes he went through for Gabriella. She opened him up, helped him express his true self. Troy was doing things he never imagined he'd do. In high school, when they first started dating each other, he would never forget how many basketball practices he missed, all for her. Seeing her smiling face everyday, was paradise for Troy. Nothing in the world felt as good, as waking up beside her. He couldn't imagine life without Gabriella. He wished he would of found her sooner, but at least he had her, and not anyone else. His mind drifted to the day he proposed.

-Flashback-

"Gabriella? Babe, where are you?" Troy asked through their very large, and empty, new house. "I'm upstairs!" he heard her usually small voice scream. He ran up the stairs, almost running into her. She giggled as he picked her up, spinning her around. "Troy, put me down!" she said in between her laughter. Her feet touched the ground, and Troy crashed his lips onto hers. He pulled away, "Baby, next time I go to Albuquerque, you have to come with me." he pulled her towards the bed, sitting down on it, and pulling her on his lap. "You missed me that much? You were only gone for one day."

"If I didn't know any better, I'd think you didn't miss me at all." she smiled at him. "Of course I've missed you." Troy smiled, picking her up off his lap, and sitting her down on the bed. He then stood up, in front of her, bending down, so he was on one knee. She looked at him confused. "Troy...", she began. He put a finger to her lips. "Gabriella," he began grabbing both of her hands in his. "I know guys say this just to be all romantic and stuff, but I really do mean it. Without you, by my side, I don't know what I'd do. I don't know where I'd even be at! Maybe I'd end up being a male prostitute. Having sex for money, because I wouldn't have a job. Any other guy would probably think thats a fairytale, I on the other hand, think thats a nightmare. Without you baby, I would of dropped out of high school, but with you, I was able to graduate, go to college, and make something of my life. And its all because of you. Brie, your beyond gorgeous, and you have a smile that makes me go weak. You gave up everything you held close, for me. Just to be with me. I never wanted you to give up your dream, but you did it anyway. I'm truly, madly, deeply, in love with you. And I guess you can tell, I'm nervous since I'm rambling, so I'll just cut to the chase. Gabriella, I want to spend my forever with you. I want to be your one and only, and I want you to be mine. So here it goes. Gabriella Anne Montez, will you marry me?" tears filled her beautiful brown eyes, as she watched Troy pull out a silver diamond ring. (picture in profile) "Yes." she said her voice cracking, as he slipped the ring on her left ring finger, kissing her passionately as he did so.

-End Of Flashback-

I analyzed myself
I was buck wild never thought about settling down
but all the time I knew
I was ready but not with all my friends around
but girl I put you first
now you made me help mold me turned me into a man
I'm so responsible and I owe it all to you

Troy's dad came into the hotel room. "Hey son, what are you thinking about? Your not regretting the decision are you?" Troy shook his head. "No, of course not. I was just thinking about...how much one person, can change your entire life."

"Yeah, its amazing. She's amazing. I'm glad you found her son." Troy smiled at his father. "Thanks dad, for everything. I can't stop thinking about this though."

"What is it?"

"Why did she choose me? I'm glad she did, but out of all the guys at East High, all the clean, innocent, guys who were virgins then; she still chose me. Why?"

"Well thats something you'll have to ask Gabriella herself... Son, I think its time I tell you, when I look at you and Gabriella, I see a spitting image of me and your mother."

"Really?"

"Really. I mean I noticed when you two started dating, you still had her hanging out in the backseat. No matter how much you liked her, you still put your friends first. You finally realized it was time for you to change that, when your relationship was on the rocks. You now put her first, even before your own self. I was just like that with your mother. Now, look at us, we've been married for 25 years, and still going. Your mother turned me into a man, just like Gabriella did with you. And

now your responsible, and you can owe it all to the girl who's ready to commit to you, for the rest of your lives." Troy took a deep breath, "Here we go. I'm getting married. Dad, I'm getting married." Troy said repeating that line in his head, as they walked down to the chapel, at the hotel. Troy Alexander Bolton, was getting married.

Gods blessed me
God has blessed me baby

God was good to me when he sent you
I'm so happy baby share my world
I'm so in love
I'm addicted to your love baby

Troy watched as the brunette babe named Gabriella, walked down the aisle. She was holding onto her father's arm, dressed in a beautiful white flowing dress (picture in profile). Her veil covered her face, making it hard to see the tears of joy falling silently on her face. She reached him, and took him by the hand. He squeezed it gently, as they faced the preacher. "Ladies and Gentlemen, we are gathered here today, to witness these two in holy matrimony. May you two face each other." (I don't really know what the vows are exactly, but I'm trying. All I ask is for you to work with me.) Troy smiled. "Do you Troy Bolton, take thee Gabriella Montez, to be your lawfully wedded wife? To have and to hold, from this day forward, through sickness and in health, for richer or for poorer, so help you God?"

"I Do."

"Do you Gabriella Montez, take thee Troy Bolton, to be your lawfully wedded husband? To have and to hold, from this day forward, through sickness and in health, for richer or for poorer, so help you God?"

"I Do."

"May I see the rings?" Troy turned to Chad, taking the ring from him, as Gabriella turned to Taylor, taking the ring from her. They turned to each other again. "Troy, repeat after me. With this ring, I dub thee my wife."

"With this ring, I dub thee my wife." he slipped the band on her finger. "Gabriella, repeat after me. With this ring, I dub thee my husband."

"With this ring, I dub thee my husband." she slipped the ring on his finger. "I now pronounce you husband and wife, you may kiss your bride." Troy smiled, lifting the veil over her head. He wiped her tears away, as his lips brushed over hers. "Ladies and Gentlemen, Mr. and Mrs. Troy Alexander Bolton!" everyone clapped as Gabriella held on to Troy by the arm. Walking out of the chapel, and heading to the ballroom, were their reception was going to take place. "Mrs. Bolton, I must say you look absolutely beautiful today." Troy said smiling from ear to ear.

"Mr. Bolton, you look handsome yourself."

"I love you."

"I love you too."

"Brie, baby, this is going to sound cheesy, but you have made me the happiest guy in the universe. And I'm completely ready to share my world with you. I'm so in love with you, you got me addicted."

"Troy, your gonna make me cry again." he smiled. "You can cry, I'll be here to wipe away your tears."

"The teenage boy, I had a crush on in High School, is no longer a boy anymore. He's a man. A married man. He's my man." she said kissing him. "Differences?"

"Differences? I like it. You changed your differences."

"No, you changed my differences."
