(A/N: Okay this is my first ever FanFic story, it's Troyella with a bit of Troypay in like flashbacks and stuff.
Summery:
Troy Bolton and Gabriella Montez used to be best friends in high school but when high school ended they grew apart and went on with their own lives, 6 years they met again, their lives very different and not turning out they thought it would in high school...Watch to find out what happens")
Troy drummed his fingers on the shopping cart as walked down the aisle looking for something for dinner, his eyes scanned the boxes behind the frozen doors looking for something healthy but that cooked fast.
"Daddy, can we go somewhere else? It's cold here" A small voice from inside the cart told him.
Troy chuckled at the small child shuddered dramatically in front of him "In a minute" He said, looking back at the freezers "I need to find something for dinner, you need something before I take you back to your mothers later"
He heard a small sigh and looked back at the 4 year old "I don't want to go back, can't I stay with you tonight?"
Troy sighed and stopped the cart "No, you have nursery in the morning and mummy misses you"
The little girl pouted and folded her arms "But you're more fun than mummy"
Troy gave her a look "Don't talk about your mom like that" Even though he had to agree.
Troy and Sharpay have been separated for over 3 years now, they was planning on getting married which Troy is grateful never happened, he walked out after finding Sharpay in bed with another man.
After that their relationship hasn't been all that great. Sharpay has always said it was never her fault he walked out on his own girlfriend and child, nothing was ever her fault.
But he wouldn't change anything; he had a beautiful daughter, good career, he didn't have a girlfriend, he hasn't had one since he left Sharpay.
He's been on dates and in a drunk mess he's been with girls but he's never let Tori meet them, he knows Sharpay would go mad if she found out, she hates the thought of being replaced by her own daughter, even though Troy used to tell her that's never going to happen.
Suddenly Troy was thrown from his thoughts when he heard a loud banging noise; he looked up and see that he had crashed into another cart
"Oh, I'm sorry" He said pulling his cart back a little "I wasn't looking where I was going"
"Oh it's fine" A young women said holding onto the other cart, she looked at Troy and smiled softly.
Troy half smiled back, he looked at Tori just to check she didn't get hurt, but she looked like she hadn't even realized, she was reading a girly magazine she had conned Troy into buying for her.
"Troy?" He looked up to the sound of his name "Troy Bolton?"
"Yep" He replied, at first he was confused about why she kept asking, but as he looked closer to her he realized why she was "Gabriella?"
She nodded and smiled "Wow" He said, smiling back at her, he walked over to her and hugged her, after a second he pulled back.
"It's been a while" "A while? Haven't seen each other since high school" She giggled
"How have you been?" Troy looked at the small child still reading her magazine then back at Gabriella "Uh... Good" He smiled "What about you?" "Great, Got a great job, nice apartment just moved back here from Italy" "Italy? What were you doing there?" His face turned curious.
"Studying, they had this great 2 year course out there where you learned all you needed to know about cooking and food, it was amazing I learnt so much" She smiled
"That's great" He smiled at her "Uh... I should go, got allot to do tonight"
"Can see that" She said nodded toward Tori sitting in the cart "She yours?" "Yeah" Troy said, looking at his daughter "She 4, well almost 5" "5? Wow that means you had her..." "In college, yep"
He looked back at Gabriella, who was still looking at Tori "Why don't we meet up in the week?" He suggested "We could catch up? You can tell me all about Italy"
Gabriella smiled then turned her head back to Troy "I would love to, I'll give you my number" She took out a pen and a piece of paper and wrote stuff down then handed it to Troy "There you go"
She smiled "I'll call you tomorrow or tonight or something" She nodded "Ok, bye" She said smiling before she turned back to her shopping cart and pushed it down to the next isle, Troy watched as she disappeared around the crooner and smiled to himself.
It was 7:30 the same night, Troy and Tori were sitting at his small round table in his kitchen eating chicken with mashed potatoes and peas, she was eating slower than normal, Troy knew why, she was trying to eat slow so it would be too late for Troy to take her home and she could stay here again, but he knew he had to get her home, Sharpay would freak if he called up and asked if she could stay one more night.
She would say it wasn't Tori wanting to stay it was him wanting more time with her, and 2 and a half days to Sharpay was enough, until she wanted to go on a date or some model or movie deal came up then she had no trouble leaving her daughter for however long, that was the problem with Sharpay as long as things were going her way it was fine, but if things changed or went another way she flipped, Troy hated it and it made it allot harder when Tori was the issue to most of their fights.
Sharpay seems jealous of his and Tori's relationship, she had always been a daddy's girl ever since she was a baby, it wasn't his fault it's just who she is but Sharpay hated it, which he didn't mind at all, he would do anything to make her life a living hell but he would never use Tori to do it, he couldn't do that to Tori.
Troy watched as she took another bit of her chicken and chewed it slowly, acting innocent he sighed
"Come on Tor, eat a bit faster" She looked down and stopped eating all together now
"Can't I stay here? One more night?" She looked up at her father with loving eyes "Pwease?"
He was about to give up and let her stay when he had a scary vision of Sharpay yelling at him and shivered at the thought of another fight with Sharpay Evans, he looked at Tori "No baby, you've got to go back to mommy's, but how about Tuesday or Wednesday I pick you up and we go for ice-cream or see a movie or something?"
She smiled and nodded "Okay" "Good girl, go pack your stuff and then we'll go" "But I haven't finished my dinner" She said looking at Troy "Then eat it, quickly I have to get you back to your mother's by half eight"
Gabriella walked up the old wooden stairs into a dimed hallway, where she went to door number 48, 5 floors up the gritty, old, noisy stairs. She put the shopping bags she had just carried all the way up down on the floor and reached into her bag to get the door keys, she opened the door and picked the bags up again, she walked into the apartment and shut the door behind her.
"Aunt Gabby" She heard from the living room, she turned to the noise to find two kids running toward her, she smiled at the 7 year old boy and 3 year old girl coming at her.
She put down the bags to hug them both "Hey guys, mummy up?" Brandon nodded "She's in the living room"
"Okay, could you help me with these bags buddy?" He nodded and picked up some bags that looked light enough for him, Lilly went to pick one up but was stopped by Gabriella
"No sweetie, too heavy for you" She said pulling the young girl up into her arms, picking up the bags she walked into the living room where she was greeted by Ralph the dog, she patted his head after putting Lilly down then looked to the couch where she see her sister.
She was sitting with her leg propped up on the coffee table under a pillow, she walked over to the kitchen which was behind a wall that came off the living room, put the bags on the small table and walked back into the living room and over to the couch where she sat next to her sister.
"Thanks for doing this Bri" Hannah smiled at her sister "You know I don't mind" Gabriella said
"How's your leg today?" Gabriella asked looking at the leg up of the pillow in a blue boot that looked very much uncomfortable.
"Painful, I tried standing up like the doctor told me and it just felt worse, I think I'll have to go back to the hospital and ask him to look at it"
Gabriella looked at her sister and see tears in her eyes, she sighed "I could take you tomorrow, I'm not doing anything" "What about the kids? I can't leave them and I'm not take them to the hospital"
"Han I'm not letting you go by yourself, you can't go into town on a bus and two trains with a broken leg"
Hannah sighed "I know, but I have to do something"
"Ask him to come here" Gabriella suggested "I'm sure they'll help you in the situation you're in"
"Bri it's not like I'm calling the doctor for flu, this is a surgeon they don't make house calls to anyone, even old people" Gabriella sighed
"How about day-care?" "I can't afford day-care" Hannah sighed
"I can, I'll give you the money" "No!" Hannah snapped which stopped Gabriella in her tracks and looked shocked at her younger sister "I'm not letting you give me money"
"Hannah, it'll be like 30 bucks, not like I'll be out of pocket" She tried reasoning with her sister "I'm not taking your money, end of story" Hannah told Gabriella then looked down at her hands.
Gabriella went silent, she sat back and watched Lilly play with one of her dolls while Brandon was watching some cartoon on the T.V, it stayed silent for a good 5 minutes until Gabriella spoke up again "You want me to put the stuff away for you" Hannah nodded but didn't look at her older sister, she just looked down at her hands, Gabriella sighed before getting up and into the kitchen.
Troy was driving Tori back to Sharpay's it was 8:45, he could feel his phone vibrating in his pocket, he knew it was Sharpay she always called if he was late to pick up or drop off Tori, picking up she couldn't wait to be alone dropping off was cuz she was sick of being alone.
Troy knew Sharpay so well now it was kind of scary, he knew when she was happy, sad, angry or why she was calling her moods, when she wanted something from him, how she felt at any given time. He knew her like the back of his hand, he couldn't believe it himself sometimes.
He turned into her driveway and turn off the engine, got out walked round and opened Tori's car door then helped her out, he grabbed her overnight bag, took her hand and walked to the front door, he rang the doorbell and waited about 2 minutes before the door opened and Sharpay stood
"Hi sweetie" She smiled at the young girl "Hi mummy" Tori said, sounding blank, Troy nudged her arm and she went in and hugged her mother's legs before going into the living room.
Sharpay turned to Troy with death stare, which was never good
"You're late" She told him
He sighed "I know, she wouldn't eat her dinner so we run a bit over but it's only 15 minutes"
"Troy she still has to have a bath and sort out her stuff for nursery tomorrow, then go to bed"
"Then you should have asked for her to be back earlier and I could bath her at mine then all you have to do it get her into bed" He suggested
Sharpay looked down then back at him and held out her hand for Tori's overnight bag which he handed to her "Hun, come say night to daddy"
Tori came running out to the front porch, Troy bent down to her level "Bye cutie" He said, she smiled and hugged Troy "Bye daddy" He held her close, then picked her up into his arms, kissing her head, she pulled back from his should "Love you" Troy smiled "Love you too"
He put her down "Be good for mummy" She nodded and walked to Sharpay and took her hand, he looked at Sharpay "Bye Troy" "Bye" He said before the door was closed, he walked back to his car, and drove away.
