Troy Bolton opened the door to his home and walked into the living room and set his keys and wallet down on the table. He then walked into the kitchen where he was met with his wife, Gabriella, who was making dinner. Troy wrapped his arms around Gabriella and kissed her cheek.

"How was your day?" Gabriella asked.

"Busy. I had a lot of paperwork to do and didn't finish until I got off" Troy said rubbing his hands through his hair.

"I'm sorry honey. Maybe tomorrow will be better" Gabriella said.

"Hopefully, how was your day?" Troy asked.

"It was alright, my mom called and wanted to see how everything was going. We have to find a house soon Troy" Gabriella said.

"I know, Brie. I know. When I get my week off, we will look for a house. I promise" Troy said.

Gabriella sighed. A little girl with brown hair walked carefully into the kitchen. She looked up at Troy and smiled.

"Daddy!" the girl exclaimed happily.

Troy turned around and smiled. He kneeled down and put his arms out. The little girl walked over to Troy and he picked her up.

"Hi baby, did you help mommy out today?" Troy asked looking at the little girl.

The little girl nodded. Gabriella looked at Troy and her daughter.

"She woke up from her nap a couple minutes before you came home" Gabriella said.

The couple's daughter, Natalie was three years old. Gabriella had found out that she was pregnant right after she graduated from Stanford. Natalie was mere image of Gabriella. She had dark brown hair and had olive colored skin. But she had Troy's cobalt blue eyes.

"Oh, what did you do today baby?" Troy asked.

"Played with paint" Natalie said.

Troy smiled and kissed Natalie's cheek.

"She painted you a picture earlier. It's on the table" Gabriella said.

"Okay, Nat I want to see your picture" Troy said.

Natalie's face lit up and she smiled. Troy and Natalie walked to the living room. Troy put Natalie down and sat on the couch. Natalie picked up her painting and walked over to her father. Troy picked Natalie up and set her down next to him. He looked at the picture and smiled.

"What did you paint Nat?" Troy asked.

"This is you, and here is mommy and me" Natalie said.

Troy smiled.

"Who is the little baby, honey?" Troy asked.

"My baby brother or sister" Natalie said nonchalantly.

Troy smiled and kissed Natalie's cheek. Troy and Gabriella had been trying to get pregnant for a couple months.

"I love it, sweetie. I will go put it on the refrigerator" Troy said taking the painting.

Troy walked into kitchen and put the painting on the refrigerator.

"Your daughter has an active imagination" Troy said.

Gabriella looked at Troy and smiled.

"What did she do now?" Gabriella asked.

"She wants a little brother or sister" Troy said.

Gabriella smiled.

"We have only been trying for a little while" Gabriella said.

"Baby, I know we have. It's going to take some time. Don't worry about it okay?" Troy said.

Gabriella sighed. Troy looked at Gabriella and kissed her lips softly.

"I love you. When the time is right, we will get pregnant okay?" Troy said.

Gabriella nodded.

"I love you too. Dinner is ready" Gabriella said.

"Alright, I'm going to go get Nat" Troy said.

Troy left the kitchen and came back with Natalie in his arms. He put his daughter down on a chair at the dining room table.

"Chad called today and was looking for you" Gabriella said as she fed Natalie her food.

"I will call him back after dinner. Have you talked to your mom?" Troy asked.

"Yeah, she said she wants us to meet her new boyfriend" Gabriella said rolling her eyes.

"I'm guessing you aren't happy about it" Troy said.

"Your guess is right. Why does she want another man in the picture? She had one already" Gabriella said as she looked at Natalie.

"Maybe she wants to be happy and not be by herself for the rest of her life" Troy suggested.

"She didn't even think how it would affect me" Gabriella said.

"Babe, no one is ever going to take the place of your dad. We all know that" Troy said.

"I'm telling you right now that if that ever happened to us, I would never do something like that to Natalie" Gabriella said.

"I know" Troy said.

Gabriella finished feeding Natalie and brought their plates to the sink.

"Alright, Nat baby it's bath time" Gabriella said.

"No bath" Natalie said.

"Yes bath. Come on" Gabriella said lifting Natalie into her arms.

Gabriella carried Natalie upstairs and went into her daughter's bedroom. She picked out a pair of pajamas and went into the bathroom. Gabriella put Natalie down and turned on the water of the tub. She then undressed Natalie and put her into the tub. Gabriella washed her daughter's hair and body. Twenty minutes later, Gabriella and Natalie walked out of the bathroom. They then walked downstairs and went into the living room.

"Are you all clean?" Troy asked his daughter as he picked her up and set her on his lap.

Natalie nodded.

"Did you call Chad back?" Gabriella asked.

"Yeah I did. He wants to come over tomorrow after work" Troy said.

"Oh okay. I think I am going to go visit your parents tomorrow. They haven't seen Nat in a while" Gabriella said.

"Okay" Troy said.

Gabriella looked at the clock which read eight o' clock. She then looked at Natalie, who was snuggled in Troy's arms.

"Nat, it's time for bed" Gabriella said.

Troy looked down at his daughter and smiled when he saw her fighting to keep her eyes open. He stood up with Natalie in his arms. The couple walked upstairs and went into Natalie's room. Troy lied Natalie down in her bed and put her covers over her. He kissed her head.

"Good night, Nat. I love you" Troy said.

Gabriella kissed Natalie's head.

"Good night, honey. I love you" Gabriella said.

The couple walked out of the room and went into their bedroom. Troy took off his shirt and lied down on the bed.

"Troy" Gabriella said.

"Yeah honey?" Troy asked.

"About earlier, do you want to have another baby?" Gabriella asked.

Troy sat up and looked at his wife.

"Baby, you know I do. We can't give up Brie" Troy said.

Gabriella sat down on the bed and looked at her husband.

"What if we don't get pregnant?" Gabriella asked.

"If you don't get pregnant, then you don't get pregnant Brie. We can only try our best" Troy said.

Gabriella nodded. Troy leaned over and kissed Gabriella's lips.

"Come on, you need to get some sleep" Troy said.

Gabriella got into bed. Troy was about to turn off the light, when he heard Natalie cry.

"I will be right back" Troy said getting out of bed.

Troy walked down the hall and went into his daughter's room and turned on the light.

"What's wrong Nat?" Troy asked as he walked over to Natalie's bed.

"Bad dream" Natalie said.

"Come here" Troy said.

Natalie snuggled into her father's arms. Troy picked Natalie up and walked downstairs and went into the kitchen. He set Natalie on the kitchen counter and went to the refrigerator and took out a carton of milk. He then grabbed Natalie's sippy cup and poured the milk into it. Troy gave Natalie the cup and watched her drink her milk.

"Do you want to tell me what your dream was about honey?" Troy asked.

"I got taken away and you and mommy couldn't save me" Natalie said.

Troy kissed Natalie's cheek softly.

"You aren't going to be taken away Nat. If you ever were taken from us, mommy and I would come and save you. There is nothing to be scared about okay?" Troy said.

Natalie nodded and finished her milk.

"Do you want to try to go back to sleep?" Troy asked.

Natalie nodded.

"Alright" Troy said as he lifted Natalie into his arms and set her on his hip.

Troy walked upstairs and went into Natalie's room. He put Natalie into her bed and tucked her in. Troy kissed Natalie's head softly.

"Good night sweetheart. I love you" Troy said.

Troy walked out of Natalie's room and went back to the master bedroom. He got back into bed. Gabriella turned over and opened her eyes.

"Is she okay?" Gabriella asked.

"Yeah, she's fine. She had a bad dream" Troy said.

Gabriella snuggled into Troy's chest and fell asleep again. The next morning, Gabriella woke up and got out of bed. She walked out of the bedroom and walked down the hall to Natalie's room where she saw her daughter sleeping. Gabriella smiled and walked into Natalie's room and kneeled down and kissed her head.

"Natalie, you need to wake up baby. We are going to go to grandma and grandpa's today" Gabriella said.

Natalie rubbed eyes and opened them slowly.

"Mommy" Natalie said.

Gabriella smiled.

"Good morning, honey. Come on, we need to eat some breakfast and then go to grandma's" Gabriella said.

Natalie put her arms up and Gabriella picked her daughter up and set her on her hip. Gabriella walked out of the bedroom and walked downstairs and went into the kitchen where Troy was pouring two cups of coffee. Troy looked up and smiled when he saw Gabriella and Natalie.

"Good morning sweetie" Troy said as he kissed Natalie's head.

"Hi" Natalie said.

"We are going to visit grandma and grandpa today" Gabriella said.

Natalie smiled.

"That sounds fun" Troy said.

"When is Chad coming over?" Gabriella asked.

"He said six, will you be home?" Troy asked.

"Yeah" Gabriella said.

"Okay, I need to get ready for work and leave" Troy said.

Troy walked upstairs and got ready for work. He worked at East High (do not own), which was his and Gabriella's alma mater. Troy became the head basketball coach when his father retired. After Troy got dressed, he walked downstairs.

"Brie, I have to go" Troy said.

Gabriella kissed Troy's lips softly.

"I love you. Have a good day" Gabriella said.

"I love you too. Where's Nat?" Troy asked.

"She's in the living room" Gabriella said.

"Okay" Troy said.

Troy walked to the living room and smiled when he saw Natalie watching cartoons.

"Baby, I have to go to work. Can I have a kiss and a hug?" Troy asked.

Natalie got off the couch and ran into her father's arms. Troy kissed Natalie's cheek softly.

"I love you Nat. Be good for mommy okay?" Troy said.

"I love you too daddy" Natalie said.

Troy left the house. Gabriella walked into the living room.

"Nat, we need to get dressed and go to grandma's" Gabriella said.

Gabriella and Natalie walked upstairs and went into Natalie's room. Gabriella picked out Natalie's clothes and dressed her. She then helped Natalie put her shoes on.

"Okay, let's go to grandma's" Gabriella said.

Gabriella and Natalie walked out of the room and went downstairs. Gabriella picked up her purse and took Natalie's hand. The two girls left the house and went to the car. Gabriella strapped Natalie into her car seat and closed the door. She then walked to the driver's side and got in. Gabriella drove to her in-laws home and parked her car. She got out of the car and opened the back seat door and unbuckled Natalie from her car seat. Gabriella and Natalie walked to the front door.

"Mommy, can I ring the bell?" Natalie asked.

"Yeah baby" Gabriella said.

Natalie rang the doorbell. A few moments later, Lucille opened the door and smiled.

"Hi there" Lucille said.

Natalie jumped into her grandmother's arms.

"Hi Lucille" Gabriella said.

"Come on in" Lucille said.

Lucille carried Natalie into the house and Gabriella followed. The girls went into the living room and sat down.

"How's everything going?" Lucille asked.

"Everything is going okay. Troy is working. The team has a big game coming up" Gabriella said.

"Oh and how are you?" Lucille asked.

"I'm alright. I am just kind of frustrated. Troy and I have been trying to get pregnant and nothing seems to be working" Gabriella said.

"Oh honey, I'm so sorry. I know how much you both want another child. When the time is right, you will get pregnant" Lucille said.

Gabriella smiled slightly.

"Yeah, that's what Troy said too" Gabriella said.

"Everything will be okay, Gabi. Don't worry" Lucille said.

"I hope so. Are you ready to go home baby?" Gabriella asked.

Natalie looked at Gabriella and nodded.

"Okay. I will call you later Lucille. Thanks for letting me vent" Gabriella said as she picked Natalie up.

"No problem. Just relax and don't stress. I love you" Lucille said.

"I love you too. Nat, say goodbye to grandma" Gabriella said.

"Bye grandma" Natalie said.

"Bye sweetheart. I love you" Lucille said as she kissed Natalie's cheek.

Gabriella and Natalie left the house. Gabriella drove home and parked her car. She got out of the car and went to the backseat and unbuckled Natalie and helped her get out of the car. The girls walked into the house and went into the kitchen where they saw Troy drinking a glass of water.

"Daddy!" Natalie said happily as she ran into her father's arms.

"Hey, how was grandma's?" Troy asked as he caught Natalie in his arms.

"Good" Natalie said.

"Baby, why don't you go and play? I have to talk to daddy" Gabriella said.

Troy put Natalie down. Natalie walked out of the kitchen. Once she was out of earshot, Gabriella looked at Troy.

"What's going on baby?" Troy asked.

Gabriella just cried. Troy looked surprised but went over to Gabriella and hugged her close.

"What's wrong Brie?" Troy asked softly.

"Am I doing something wrong? Why can't I get pregnant?" Gabriella cried.

Troy kissed Gabriella's head softly.

"Baby, you are doing nothing wrong. We just need to try again" Troy said.

"What if I never get pregnant Troy?" Gabriella cried.

"Brie, listen to me. It's going to take some time okay? We need to keep trying and we can't give up" Troy said.

Gabriella sighed.

"Everything is going to be fine. You will get pregnant, I promise" Troy said.

Gabriella just hugged her husband.

"I love you" Troy said.

"I love you too" Gabriella said.

"Are you okay now?" Troy asked.

Gabriella nodded.

"Sorry that I just exploded like that" Gabriella said.

"Hey, don't be sorry for telling me how you feel babe. I want to know stuff like that" Troy said.

Gabriella nodded. Troy kissed Gabriella's lips softly.

"Mommy? Why are you crying?" Natalie asked.

Troy and Gabriella looked at their daughter.

"I'm fine honey. Don't worry okay?" Gabriella said.

"She's okay Nat. Let's go get your pajamas on and get you in bed" Troy said.

"Okay" Natalie said.

"Say goodnight to mommy" Troy said.

Gabriella lifted Natalie into her arms.

"Good night baby. I love you" Gabriella said.

"I love you too mommy" Natalie said.

Gabriella put Natalie down. Troy and Natalie walked out of the room and walked upstairs. Fifteen minutes later, Troy came downstairs and went into the living room where Gabriella was sitting.

"You okay?" Troy asked.

"Yeah, I'm fine" Gabriella said.

Troy kissed Gabriella's lips softly.

"Do you want to try again?" Troy asked.

Gabriella nodded.

"Okay, come on" Troy said.

The couple walked upstairs and shut their door, hoping that they would be able to conceive a child that night. A couple weeks later, Gabriella brought home a couple of pregnancy tests. She walked upstairs and went into the master bedroom where Troy was.

"I'm going to take a couple of tests" Gabriella said.

"Okay" Troy said.

Gabriella walked into the bathroom and closed the door. She took the tests and came out of the bathroom.

"How long do we have to wait?" Troy asked.

"Five minutes" Gabriella said.

Five minutes passed and Gabriella looked at Troy.

"Five minutes is up" Gabriella said.

"Do you want to look at them or do you want me to?" Troy asked.

"I will go" Gabriella said.

Gabriella walked into the bathroom and looked at the pregnancy tests. They all said negative. Gabriella just stared at the tests and cried. Troy heard Gabriella cry and walked into the bathroom and held his wife in his arms.

"It's okay honey. We can try again" Troy said as he kissed Gabriella's head.

"Why isn't it working?" Gabriella asked.

"I don't know sweetheart. I really don't. Let's try again and see what happens okay?" Troy said.

Gabriella nodded.

"I love you" Troy said.

"I love you too" Gabriella said quietly.

The rest of the day, Troy and Gabriella relaxed around the house. The couple hoped that they would be able to conceive a child soon.
