Later that night, Troy moved some of his belongings into the guest bedroom of Gabriella's house. He had put the last piece of his clothing in the closet when he heard screaming in Gabriella's room. Troy ran out of the guest bedroom and into Gabriella's room. She throwing things and screaming. Troy ran up to her and put his arms around her, trying to calm her down.

"Brie, shh I am right here" Troy said as soon as he got her into his arms, where she "felt the safest" as she always said.

"Why did this happen? I didn't do anything wrong. I always treated him with respect and I loved him more than anyone would ever know" Gabriella said as tears rolled down her cheeks.

"I don't know why it happened, Gab. You can't let him get to you" Troy said rubbing her back.

"He told me he loved me every day before he left for work. Now I know that it was not true" Gabriella said with tears in her eyes.

"He obviously had other intentions, he said something but meant something else" Troy said.

"What do you think I should do Troy?" Gabriella asked.

"Tell him you want to meet with him. Then talk about what you should do. Joint custody or something?" Troy suggested.

Gabriella let out her breath that she had been holding in.

"I am going to call him right now" Gabriella said walking to the phone.

Gabriella picked up the phone and dialed Ryan's number. She waited for him to answer.

"Hello?" Ryan answered.

"Ryan, we need to talk" Gabriella said.

"Gabriella, it's done. We are done. There is nothing else for me to say" Ryan said.

"Don't you want to be a part of your child's life?" Gabriella asked softly.

Ryan sighed.

"Gabriella, of course I want to be a part of the baby's life. I just don't want to be with you" Ryan said.

Gabriella sighed happily. She was relieved that Ryan wanted to be a part of her baby's life.

"Should we sign for joint custody?" Gabriella asked.

"Yes, I will have my lawyer send the papers to you" Ryan said.

"Okay, thank you" Gabriella said.

Ryan and Gabriella hung up. Gabriella walked downstairs and saw Troy watching a basketball game. She went over to the couch and sat next to him.

"How did it go?" Troy asked as he turned from the TV to look at Gabriella.

"It went surprisingly well. He agreed to sign for joint custody" Gabriella said.

"That's good. So he wants to be in your child's life?" Troy asked.

"Yeah, he said that he wants to but he doesn't want to be with me, which is fine. I just don't want any women around when the baby is on his watch" Gabriella said.

"You two need to sit down and discuss that issue" Troy said.

"Why are you such an expert on this? Have you had to go through joint custody's recently?" Gabriella joked.

"No, but I want to support you in the decisions you are making" Troy said.

"Well you are doing a very good job" Gabriella said yawning.

"Come on Brie, let's get you to bed" Troy said taking her hand.

"I just need for this all to just disappear" Gabriella said leaning against Troy's arm as they walked upstairs.

"I know, but it will be okay. Whatever happens, happens" Troy said stopping in Gabriella's room.

"I just want you to know that I have the greatest best friend in the world. You didn't have to help me, but you did. You didn't have to move in when Ryan left, but you did that too. How did I get so lucky?" Gabriella asked herself.

"Hey, you are the closest person to me. I know you, Brie. I wanted to help, it's in my job description" Troy said.

Gabriella smiled and hugged Troy. Troy put his arms around her and rubbed her back.

"Go to sleep, Gab. You have had a long day" Troy said.

"Good night, Troy. Love you" Gabriella said.

"Night, Brie. Love you too" Troy said closing her door.

Troy walked to the guest room and took off his shirt. He put his pajamas on and got into bed. Troy fell asleep until he was woken up four hours later by his door opening.

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

Gabriella walked to Troy's bed.

"I couldn't sleep. Too much on my mind" Gabriella said.

"Do you want to talk about it?" Troy asked sitting up in the bed.

"I don't know if I can do this, Troy" Gabriella said looking out the window.

Troy looked at Gabriella's back.

"Do what Brie?" Troy asked.

Gabriella turned around and looked at Troy with tears in her eyes.

"Have this baby and raise it on my own" Gabriella cried.

Troy got out of bed and held Gabriella in his arms. He whispered soothing words to her as she cried.

"You aren't going to do it alone Gab" Troy said.

"I always have a plan and know the steps in which that plan goes smoothly. But, this is out of my control" Gabriella said crying into Troy's chest.

Troy rubbed her back soothingly.

"Hey, you have had a long day. I think you should just go back to sleep and relax , okay?" Troy said.

"Can you stay until I go to sleep?" Gabriella asked.

"Of course" Troy said.

Gabriella and Troy walked into Gabriella's bedroom. Gabriella got into bed and looked at Troy as he sat on the edge of her bed.

"How are you so calm about this?" Gabriella asked curiously.

"You are my best friend, Brie. I don't know what it's like to find out that you are pregnant, but I can support you in whatever decision you make. To keep it or not" Troy said.

There was a moment of silence until Gabriella looked at Troy.

"I am going to keep it. Just because I got pregnant with someone else's baby, doesn't mean I will not keep it" Gabriella said.

"Did you go to your doctor and get checked out?" Troy asked.

"Yeah, I have my first ultrasound tomorrow" Gabriella said.

"What time?" Troy asked.

"Ten. You don't have to go Troy. It's not your child, and I don't expect you to be there" Gabriella said.

"Brie, I will be there. You need me more than ever" Troy said.

"I love you" Gabriella said hugging Troy.

"Love you too, now get some sleep. We will talk more about this in the morning" Troy said.

Gabriella smiled and closed her eyes. A couple hours later, Gabriella woke up to feeling nauseous. She bolted to the bathroom. Troy heard the sound of throwing up from the guest bedroom. He ran into Gabriella's bathroom and held her hair as she regurgitated the remains in her stomach. After she was done, Gabriella brushed her teeth and looked at Troy. Troy observed Gabriella's physical state. Her eyes had dark rings around them, her hair was everywhere, and her body was physically exhausted.

"Let's get you back to the bedroom. You need to get dressed. We are going to be late" Troy said looking at the clock.

Gabriella got dressed after Troy left. She then walked downstairs. Troy had started the coffee maker and was pouring Gabriella and himself a cup. Troy gave Gabriella her cup and watched as she took a sip.

"Feeling better?" Troy asked.

"Yeah, just tired" Gabriella said yawning.

"When we get back, you can go back to sleep" Troy said.

The two best friends left the house and drove to the doctor's office. Troy helped Gabriella out of his truck and they walked into the office. Gabriella signed in and sat next to Troy. A nurse came out and called her name.

"Vanessa?" A nurse called.

Troy and Gabriella followed the nurse into an exam room.

"So this is your first ultrasound, put this gown on and Dr. Leon will be in shortly" the nurse said as she left the room.

"I am going to step out while you change" Troy said.

"You can stay, you know? We have been best friends since we were five Troy. No secrets" Gabriella said.

Gabriella changed into the gown and tied it. She sat on the exam table until she heard a knock on the door. Dr. Leon came in smiling.

"Gabriella, it's been a while" Dr. Leon said smiling.

"I know" Gabriella said.

"Who is this?" Dr. Leon asked motioning to Troy.

"That's my best friend, Troy" Gabriella said.

" Nice to meet you, Troy. Now, Gabriella would you like to see your baby?" Dr. Leon asked.

Gabriella nodded. Dr. Leon helped Gabriella lie back. She lifted Gabriella's gown and put gel on it. Dr. Leon then took a wand and moved it across Gabriella's stomach.

"He or she seems very healthy" Dr. Leon said.

"That's good" Gabriella said.

Troy and Gabriella thanked Dr. Leon and drove home. Gabriella was starting to feel more comfortable with the fact that she was now pregnant.
