Gabriella walked into the old sweaty East High Gym to find that her boyfriend was shooting hoops in the gym. Gabriella tip toed quietly behind him and covered his eyes. "Guess who.. and if you get it wrong, I will be very upset."
Troy smiled, and chuckled, "My beautiful sexy girlfriend." Gabriella giggled as he turned around wrapping his arms around her waist and kissing her with passion. "Hey beautiful." she giggled, running her hands through his hair, "Hey. are you just shooting some last minute hoops before graduation tonight?
Troy smiled, leaning down to rub his nose against hers. "I can stop anytime I want to...like now, want to skip practice with me?"Gabriella giggled, opening her mouth to say something but then a deep throat cleared in the background and the two lovestruck teenagers looked up to see Troy's dad; WIlliam Bolton. "Dad-" "Nobody in the gym during practice. Team rule."
Gabriella bit her lip,"Sorry Coach Bolton." he looked at her, "I told you a million times Gabriella-" "Dad." Troy sent him a death glare, "stop talking to her like that...I mean it." William Bolton narrowed his eyes. Troy looked at Gabriella wrapping his arm around her, "Come on Brie, let's go get ready for graduation."
All the Seniors sat in stands outside behind East High. The principal walked up to the podium. "Please welcome our Valedictorian, Gabriella Montez." Gabriella rised from her seat, kissing Troy on the lips softly walking up to the podium.
His father glared at the happy couple as walked away from Troy and up to the Podium. she smiled, "Thank you Principal Matsui.."
She smiled to the class, "My fellow classmates, East High has been the best years of my life.. I loved all the friends I made, and the relationship I had made... I am going to miss our embarrassing moments, our happy moments, even our sad moments, I don't know where my life is going to take me, but I'm glad I had this in my life, we made friends that we're going to keep for the rest of our lives, because once a wildcat..always a wildcat."
The seniors cheered, standing up on their feet. Gabriella smiled hugely, looking at Troy, his eyes were sparkling. "Thank you! And I hope you love the futures that you have planned out or you find them walking down the paths that fate has lined out for you!"
Everyone cheered again, Gabriella walked off the stage and back to her seat next to Troy. He grabbed her hand and kissed her knuckles gently. "I love you.." he mouthed, she smiled and kissed his lips.
The next night, Gabriella made her way to Troy's house. she got a text saying that he wanted to see her. Gabriella knocked on the door, and a few minutes later William Bolton opened the door. she smiled small, "Hi Mr Bolton, Is Troy-Woah!" he pulled her inside, and pushed her in the chair.
"Listen, I want you to break up with my son." Gabriella looked at him, "Exscuse me.." "You heard me, you're a distraction to him, he needs this scholarship, he needs to practice more, and with you being here, is just going to distract him."
Gabriella bit her lip, and looked at the floor, "But..But what will be the reason for breaking up with him-" "You're moving, or you want him to focus on his future right now." Gabriella sighed, "Is..Is he here?" William shook his head, "No.. He'll be here soon though, wait here.. and wait for him." Gabriella nodded as he walked upstairs.
Gabriella sat in the kitchen at the table waiting for Troy to walk in. moments later Troy walked through the door, "Mom I'm- Gabriella what's..what's up?" she bit her lip, "Troy we need to talk."
She came over and grabbed his hands, "I..I think we need to break up-" "No! why?" she sighed looking down, "You..You need this scholarship, you need to focus on you're basketball and you're future, I'm just..I'm distracting you from that, and..and I don't wanna hurt you.."
Troy looked at her, "Brie-" she shook her head, sniffling, "Troy...don't-don't make it harder than it needs to be. I'm sorry...but we need to do this-just a break. A small break." "Brie listen to me-" she hugged her arms around herself, looking down at the ground. "Troy...please, just...do it for me? Focus on your scholarship."
She stood on her tip toes and kissed his cheek before she whispered in his ear. "I'm sorry...maybe someday." And with that, she walked out of his kitchen and out the front door.
Troy stood rooted to the ground, staring at the spot where Gabriella once stood. He heard foot steps but he didn't turn to see who was coming in. "Troy? What's wrong?" His dad...figures.
Troy shook his head, "Gabriella.." he muttered, whipping around and running outside-his luck it started raining. "GABRIELLA!" he looked up the street both ways. Not seeing her. "GABRIELLA!" he felt his knees shake.
He had to get inside cause he wouldn't be able to stand any longer.
5 Years Later.
Gabriella got out of the car, going to the back seat opening the door and smiling, "Come here my baby boy." she lifted her 3 year old son, and placed him on her hip as she made her way up the stairs and opening the door. "Jason, I'm home." No repsonse.
"Jason?" she placed Christopher in the living room, "stay here baby." she whispered going upstairs. as soon as she entered the hallway she heard moans coming from the bedroom. she gulped walking to the door resting her hand on the knob, then turning, opening it to reveal her husband ontop of a blonde headed whore.
Gabriella gasped, "What the hell is this?!" she yelled. Jason looked at her, "Gabriella-" "No! who the hell is she?!" she pointed at the stupid blonde in her bed. HER BED! "Gabriella, I was going to tell you-"
Gabriella shook her head, "No.." he sighed, "I want a divorce Gabriella." she rubbed her forehead, "What about our son? what about Christopher!" he sighed, "I'm sorry alright." Gabriella shook her head, and walked downstairs in tears, lifting up her son and placed him back on her hip again, "Come on sweetie, were going to see Aunt Anna."
Christopher babbled aimlessly, clapping his hands as Gabriella walked back to the car. Jason sighed, standing in the door frame watching Gabriella leave with his son. "Come on baby," said the blond whore.
He sighed looking at her, "yeah...let's uh...do something." he shut the door, and in the car, Gabriella wiped furiously at the tears as she turned onto Brooklyn road and then in to the familiar culdesac where the familiar two story house stood in the middle at the end.
"Here we go baby boy," Gabriella said, parking the car and picking Chirstopher up and walking to the door. "Let's go see Aunt Anna."
TGTGTGTGTG
Troy ran cross the court, shooting the ball at another team mate. His name was...Derek? James? Something beginning with a D or J. "Hey Troy!" he hears Chad call over, he sighed, making a timeout sign and running over."Hey...what's up?"
Chad only beamed and grabbed two airline tickets from his pocket, "You. Me. Bro-holiday to NYC." Troy rolled his eyes, "Chad-" "Come on man..you haven't been on a vacation since she brok-" "Don't say it!"
Chad sighed, "Troy it's been 5 years-" "Chad, I just have this weird feeling that.. that she is going to come back into my life." Chad sighed, "Troy, I need to talk to you about Gabriella." Troy looked at him, "what about her?" Troy sighed, "Taylor talked to her about a year ago, and lost contact with her.. they ran into each other at a restaraunt.."
Troy looked at him, "And what?" Chad sighed, "Well, she got married to a guy. His name is Jason Holbrook, and they had a 2 year old son together named Christopher." Troy's heart clenched, and he looked at chad, "She's married?"
Chad sighed, "I don't know Troy..." Troy bit his lip, and sighed. "I feel like shit.." "You've felt like shit for the past 5 years since she broke up with you...don't you think it's time to move on?"
Troy sighed, "I guess I'm gonna kind of have too, she's married, and has a son...But I will never stop loving her, or stop thinking about her, she was my world chad, my everything, I just..I can't forget about her.." Chad nodded, "And that's understandable, I know she felt the same way about you, but if she can move on, you can too."
"Yo Chad." Chad looked up to see James, "You guys coming to the club with us tonight?" Chad looked at Troy, "wanna go man, you could have some fun." Troy sighed, "I..I guess I'll just go and have a couple of drinks."
Chad smiled, "That's our captain." he laughed, and messed up his hair and jumped off the bleachers. Troy sighed looking at his phone, that still had the picture of him and Gabriella atthe country club that one summer, her head resting on his chest and them both looking at the camera.
He sighed, "I have no idea where you are, but I wanna find you, I love you." he whispered, clicking his lock screen button and grabbing his duffle bag and jumping off the bleachers after the rest of the team.
