They were childhood friends and soon became enemies as soon as Middle School started. They're now in High School and what would happen if they get thrown into an arranged marriage?

CHAPTER TWO

Gabi's POV

I got home at around quarter after 3, giving me enough time to prepare myself for tonight.

Entering my room, I threw my bag into the corner. Then, I saw the dress at my bed and stared at it at awe. It was a cream colored tube dress. It had sequins and lace as designs over it. From the looks of it, it would fall about an inch above my knee. I then rushed off.

It took me about and hour and a half to get ready. Having a hot shower, curling my hair a bit, applying a little makeup and giving myself nude colored nail polish that matched my dress.

It was already 4:45 as I put the finishing touches for my make up. At the same time, I heard a soft knock. "Come in!" as I put necklace and earrings on.

"oh honey, you look beautiful" I heard my mom gush and turned around.

"thank you, mom. I see you're ready as well, is dad finished too?" I asked looking at myself lastly at the mirror

"yes darling, we're both done. I'm actually glad that you finished early. Lucille and I decided to meet up at their house first before heading out to the restaurant. Then, we could just ride altogether. so we're leaving now so go ahead and strap in your shoes."

She waited for me as I slipped on my shoes and went downstairs. I saw dad trying to fix his tie. I then heard mom giggle and approach him to fix it herself and I could see that he thanked her through the look of his eyes. She then placed his hand on his chest and dad kissed her on the forehead. Oh how I wish my marriage life would be as much as theirs.

"hi princess" as dad approached me and kissed me on the forehead "you look very pretty" smiling adoringly at me

"thank you daddy. You don't look bad yourself" giggling as I saw my dad scrunch up his face

I saw mom get our coats and clutches, "Let's go guys. We don't want to be late. Here you go Gabi" she said as she handed me my coat and clutch and headed for the door.

Troy's POV

It's 6:15 and I was about done getting ready. Mom said that the Montez's were going here early so that we can all go together at the restaurant.

I was putting on my tie when I heard the doorbell ring. "Troy, honey, would you mind getting that?" I heard my mom say from their room. I sighed, going downstairs with my tie still hanging around my neck.

As I opened the door I saw Mr. Montez with Mrs. Montez and Gabriella trailing behind him. I then heard my mom squeal from the stairs and rushed to greet Mrs. Montez at the same time, dad was coming out of the kitchen curious why his wife was squealing. He just shook his head at the sight of Mrs. Montez.

"Oh, Hello Troy, you look rather dashing tonight. Doesn't he, Gabriella?" I then looked over Gabriella who was silent and looking at the ground. What the hell happened to the feisty Montez that I know?

"Yeah, whatever" she said silently.

"Troy, why don't you take Gabriella up to your room? Finish fixing up your tie, get your coat and show her around a bit" giving me a stern look, I sighed and motioned Gabriella to follow me.
