Chapter 1: Start of Something New
Troy and Gabriella took in their surrounds with astonishment as they walked down Hollywood Blvd hand in couldn't believe that they were actually in LA ready to live out there dreams together. Last month Troy signed a 10 million dollar contract to play with the Lakers and Gabriella was accepted into the top rated medical school in California to peruse her dreams of becoming a neurologist.
"So are you ready to play along side some of the greatest basketball legends ever?" Gabriella asked her boyfriend as they walked into the wax museum.
Troy looked over at her with a small smile. "Just as much as your ready to learn all there is to know about neuroscience at one of the top rated colleges in the West coast."
"So, your nervous then?"
"With out a doubt." Troy laughed. "But as long as we're together everything's cool right?"
"Promise?" Gabriella asked. It was a small fear she had; scared that with Troy playing for the Lakers and her studying all the time for classes that they wouldn't have time for each other and would drift apart.
Troy stopped walking when he heard the underline stress in her voice. "Of course Gabby. I would walk through the gates of hell as long as I know you'll be on the other side waiting for me. I don't think I could make it through this milestone in my life without you."
Gabriella smiled at his response. "Don't forget about Chad too. There's no way you would be able to handle being a laker without your sidekick."
Troy returned her smiled and resume walking through the wax museum. Chad also got the one in a lifetime opportunity to be drafted in the NBA. But instead of signing with the Lakers, he signed with the LA Clippers. Even though him and his best friend wouldn't be playing for the same team anymore, he still had is partner in crime nearby.
"Hmm I don't know," Troy said acting as if he was deep in thought, "Chad doesn't reward me the way you do after a game. And I for one would miss that terribly."
Gabriella looked away; a slight blush creeping to her cheeks. Troy laughed out loud at her reaction and pulled her closer by her small waist.
"Oh so you think it's funny huh Wildcat?"
Even though the couple graduated East High 4 years ago, Gabriella still referred to Troy as 'Wildcat'. When Troy asked about it one day she simply said 'No matter what, you'll always be my Wildcat.'
Troy tried to hide his smile and failed miserably.
Gabriella pushed him playfully and joined him in with his laughter. "Whatever."
Troy and Gabriella finished walking through the museum enjoying all the sites then got a quick bite to eat at a nearby restaurant before heading to their condo not too far from the Staples Center. Gabriella walked through the door and went straight to their bedroom and plopped herself on the bed with a groan.
Troy followed behind her but stopped at the door and leaned against he frame."Tired?"
"My feet are killing me. Remind me again the next time we want to go site seeing that we should drive and not walk."
He made his way over to the bed and sat down beside his girlfriend. He then reached over and grabbed one of her feet and started to gently massage it.
"Feel better?"
"Oh my god! You have no idea." She moaned. "Don't stop."
"Your wish is my command." He replied. Troy proceeded with his massage but the noises of pleasure Gabriella was making was seriously turning him on.
"Gabby, please. If you don't stop with those sounds I can't be held responsible for my actions."
She smirked at him. You mean theses noises? She asked then begin moaning pleasure again.
Troy dropped the foot he was massaging and towered over his girlfriend on the bed.
"I'm serious Montez. Don't play with fire."
She wrapped her arms around his neck. "And why not Wildcat? I know how to play so I don't get burned."
Troy raised an eyebrow at her. "Don't be so sure about that." He couldn't fight the pull he had towards her anymore. He leaned down and kissed her. His hands ran along her sides as her hands tangled in his hair. Gabriella couldn't help the moan that escaped her as she kissed him. Just when Troy was about to remove his shirt, his phone went off.
"Fuck." He hissed.
"Ignore it." Gabriella said pulling his face back to hers.
As mush as wanted to obey that command he couldn't.
"I can't." He sighed. "With everything going on right now it could be important." With one last sigh he climbed off her and reached for his phone that he placed on the nightstand earlier.
"Hello."
"Sup man." Chad's voice came from the other end.
Troy groaned internally; frustrated that his friend had the worst timing ever.
"Who is it?" Gabriella asked sitting up on the bed.
"Chad" he mouthed.
"Nothing much. Look dude is it okay if I call you back in like 2 hours?"
On the bed, Gabriella began shedding her clothes. She started with her shirt removing it slowing just to tease Troy.
He raised an eyebrow at her. 'This girl is trying to kill me. ' he thought.
"That's cool," Chad said " I just wanted to let you know I made it to LA. Call me back whenever you're done playing with Gabriella."
"Goodbye Chad." Troy said with smile.
"Bye man." Chad laughed.
He ended the call and looked at his girlfriend who was sitting on the bed wearing her bra and jeans.
"What?" She asked innocently.
"You think your cute don't you?"
"I think you should bring your sexy tail over here and finish what you started."
"Your wish, my command Ms. Montez."
