As Gabriella Montez awoke that morning in a bed that was not hers and in the arms of a man, she barely knew, she could not help but smile.

She looked out the window smiling at the beautiful view, she expected she was in a hotel room because there were almost no personal items. She turned around carefully studying the man by her side. He was extremely beautiful. The dirty blonde hair fell gently over his face.

If Gabriella remembered right, he had piercing blue eyes. His body was toned, the arm that was around her was a bundle of muscles and because the covers were hanging low around his hips, the six-pack could be seen.

She sat up slightly, pulling the cover with her to cover herself. This caused the blonde man to wake up. It took him a few seconds to adjust to his surroundings.

He then looked up at the woman in bed with him. She was a true beauty. Long brown curly hair that framed her face beautifully, her brown eyes looked alive and her tanned skin just added extra grace.

Gabriella smiled down at the man lying in bed beside her, she had been right. He was in deed blue eyed. He did not look like he was from around here, perhaps American or European.

"Good Morning" He said flashing his white teeth at her in an adorable smile. Now she was sure, he was not Australian like her. His accent was hard to place but it for sure was not Australian.

"Morning" Gabriella said lightly.

"Gabriella right?" He asked sitting up slightly rubbing his eyes adjusting to the strong sunshine from the window.

"That's right," Gabriella, told him.

He laughed, "I'm troy," He told her.

"Just troy?" she asked him

"It's complicated, my parents have some weird traditions, I have four names but none of them are really a surname" Troy explained.

"Right" Gabriella said, she found it quiet weird but did not say more.

"And you?" He asked.

"Montez" she told him simply.

"That's a nice name, it sounds Mexican," He asked,

"It is" Gabriella smiled, he was smart as well.

"So are you from Mexico or what?" Troy asked her.

"No my great grandfather was but he moved here to Tasmania" Gabriella told him.

"So you're Australian?" Troy half asked, half pointed out.

"110%" Gabriella told proudly.

"That's awesome, do you live on Tasmania?" Troy asked trying to get to know the beauty in front of him.

"no, I moved 2 years ago went backpacking in America for half a year and then moved back to Australia were I was offered a job here in Sydney were I have been staying since" Gabriella told smiling.

"What about you?" She asked.

He smiled: "What about me?" he asked.

"Were are you from? For sure you are not Australian," Gabriella pointed out.

Troy shock his head, "No I'm not, in fact this is my first time here." he explained, "I am here for the games"

the year was 2000 and Sydney was hosting the Olympic Games.

"Right" Gabriella started to understand, she herself had been to busy to go see any of the things in the games.

"But were are you from?" Gabriella asked.

"Europe, a small country called Denmark. I am sure you did not hear about it. Hardly anyone knows it" Troy laughed, Gabriella nodded her head.

"Never heard about it" She smiled.

"Oh well I got used to it" Troy laughed,

"This is going to sound weird, but do you remember how we ended up here?" Gabriella asked embarrassed.

"Not really, I remember going to this bar but that's all" Troy laughed

"hmm yea" Gabriella said, this was extremely awkward for both parts.

"Hmm, do you want to have some breakfast?" he asked her.

"I really should get going" Gabriella said.

"Okay" Troy simply answered, he was really into this girl but hell he lived on the other side of the world.

"I'm just going to use the bathroom," she said standing up pulling the cover with her.

"Sure" troy said admiring her naked back,

15 minutes later

Troy watched closely as the bathroom doors opened and a fully dressed woman stepped out.

She smiled at him; he was at the table eating room service, only wearing a pair of blue boxers.

"Do you want something?" Troy asked while popping a strawberry into his mouth.

"No I'm fine, but I think I might have to try at least one strawberry" she smiled at him walking over to the table,
taking a strawberry from the bowl before taking a bite. Troy looked at her, she was unbelievable sexy.

"Oh my these are amazing," she said while taking another strawberry. (If you saw the gossip girl scene with Dan and Serena in the bus, she is eating it
like Serena does in that scene's)

Troy smiled as she kept eating of the strawberries.

"Gabriella?" he asked slightly nervous

she nodded her head still eating of the strawberries.

"Would you consider going on a date with me?" he asked nervously

she looked at him for a second, her expression impossible to read, before smiling

"of course, but now I need to get going" she said looking down at her watch

"sure, meet me at the bar tonight at 20.00 and we will find some restaurant" troy told her before standing up.

"Okay, see you" she said and started walking towards the door,

"hey didn't you forget something?" troy asked? She looked back confused but before she could answer, his lips were upon hers.

They stayed there for a few seconds until he pulled back "See you" he smiled at her.

It took Gabriella a few seconds to focus before replying; "see you" and walking out

THAT NIGHT...

Troy stood in front of the bar were he the night before had meet the girl he couldn't get out of his mind.

He smiled at the memory of her, it was cliché and he knew it but that is how he felt. He had just turned 27 and had his fair share of girlfriend's
through his life. However, none had ever made him fell like this. He had actually never been serious enough with a girl to introduce her to his parents but then
again he did have some special parents.

"Hey" came the sweet Australian voice of the girl he was thinking of.

He smiled at her, she looked absolutely amazing, her curved body covered with a black cocktail dress, her feet in a pair of gold stilettos, her hair
was curled and pulled up with a claps on the back of her head but a few stands of hair was hanging down her face.

"Wow" he simply said walking towards her,

she smiled at him, even just a simple smile made him go crazy. When he reached her he leaned forward placing a gentle kiss upon her lips-

"So do you know any good places?" he asked as her. She smiled at him, clearly thinking for a second before breaking out into a smile;

"Yea I know the perfect place," she said taking his hand pulling him down the street.

They walked for about 7 minutes or so before she stopped in front of what looked like an Italian cafe

"this is my favourite place in Sydney" she told him before opening the door stepping inside.

Troy walked in behind her, taking in all the details of the place.

"Troy over here" she called out at him, apparently he had stopped in amassment of the place and she had moved over to a table at the back.

He walked over to the table: "This place is amazing" he told her

"I know, I always go here with my father when he visits" she said smiling. She sat down one the chair beside the window. Troy smiled before sitting down
on the chair opposite her.

"My sister found it when she lived here, she meet her husband here. He was a waiter," she told him.

"Sister?" he asked

"yeah, Kate she just turned 30 this June." Gabriella explained,

"Do you have other siblings?" troy asked, he felt like he wanted to know more about her, as if he needed to know everything.

"Yeah a younger brother, Tim, he's 25, married and has 2 kids. I'm the only one who is not married with kids" Gabriella told and laughed

troy laughed as well but was interrupted by the waiter.

"Hey Gabi, what can I get you tonight?" the young waiter asked

Gabriella smiled at him politely: "just the usual but two and i will have a glass of red wine and you troy?" she asked looking at him

"I will just have the same" he replied, the waiter nodded and walked away.

"What about you, do you have any siblings?" Gabriella asked him returning to their topic

"I have a younger sister, Isabella, she is 22, and actually she just got engaged" Troy told her.

Gabriella smiled: "So how is Denmark, I did some research and you will have to correct me if I'm wrong but the capital is Copenhagen right?" she asked.

Troy smiled and nodded, she had made the effort to research his country

"that's right" he told her and could not help but smile when she got all proud about it.

"And you have a queen and her name is Alexander (a/n: made up) right`?" she asked

troy looked at her nervously, did she know?

"Hmmm well yea?" he said nervously.

"Troy what's wrong?" she asked confused,
