Missing Moments

Author: Ariel Melendez (XxarlimeXx12)

Summary: As we all know, there were plenty of moments in all 3 HSM's that could've been there. My job is to fill you in on those particular moments. Any moments I think of will be used.

Rating: Anywhere from K-T, depending on the moment

Disclaimer: I do not own HSM or anything associated with it. I do, although own these moments I shall create.

I've been requested to add another moment to this story. I've been asked to continue the moment where Troy surprises Gabriella at Stanford. I know I did this one in another story but I'm going to take that one down and redo it on here.

Anyway on to the second missing moment.

Gabriella sat on a bench, her head resting on Troy's shoulder. He had just driven all the way from Albuquerque to see her. Initially she had thought that he was just a figment of her imagination but after that kiss, she knew he was really there.

"I don't think I'll ever really believe that you actually came here." Troy lifted his head as he heard her speak. "I mean I know you're here but I just can't believe you would actually do that for me Troy."

"Honestly I really don't believe it either. I mean I wasn't ready to let you go that easily. There was no way that you were going anywhere." They both leaned in for a kiss but this one was much slower and softer then their previous reunion kiss. Troy pulled back and leaned his head on hers. "When you called, I thought you were just letting me know that you were getting on the plane and telling me when to pick you up at the airport. I didn't expect you to say what you said. I mean I was so happy that you were coming back for prom and graduation."

"Troy I didn't want to hurt you. I just couldn't do it. I didn't want to come back and see you just to leave again. I could never do that again. I miss you terribly already."

"Then why didn't you come down? Everybody misses you so much. Especially me. I mean what am I without my brainiac girlfriend by my side?" Gabriella giggled at his term. "Seriously Gabs what was really stopping you?" He watched as she sighed and bit her lip.

"Honestly what I said earlier is part of the reason I didn't come back. I just couldn't face you again. I mean I thought that since I was going to be gone for a few weeks that you guys would just forget about me. I mean it's happened every other time so I figured it would just be the same with you. And that…Wait why are you smiling?" As she had told him her reason, Troy's smile had grown bigger.

"I'm smiling because someone as smart at you would believe something as stupid as that. Why would I ever forget about you?"

"I just thought that since I'd be leaving that you would find someone better than me and I guess I actually believed that you would. I've just experienced it so many times that I started to think it would just happen again when I had to leave."

"Well it's not going to happen Gabs. I don't plan on letting you go anytime soon." Troy said, pulling her closer to his body.

They ran widely through the hallways, going towards the auditorium. The show had already started but they could make it for the second half. Troy looked back to see Gabriella leaning on a bunch of lockers. Being an athletic, he had a bit of an advantage over her. When she walked up to Troy and looked up, she saw his eyes staring right at her. Before she could say anything, he had her pushed up against a locker with one hand above her head and the other caressing her cheek.

"God you're beautiful." He kissed her softly and she couldn't help the small moan that erupted from the sweet kiss. Troy had never kissed her like this before. She ran her hands up his chest and shoulders before she rested them in his hair, letting her fingers run slowly through the strands. His hands were also preoccupied. They had started on her waist but they were now roaming under her shirt, on her soft skin. His hands roamed up to her covered breasts but were stopped as she pulled away.

"Troy if you continue that, I don't think we'll make it in time for our song."

"You know saying something like that isn't going to help me right now." Gabriella looked confused until her eyes fell towards his jeans. She smirked as she realized what he meant.

"Well I wouldn't want to do anything to make your problem worse." She teased, her fingers running slowly down his chest as she spoke. Troy closed his eyes as he tried to think of anything but his beautiful and teasing girlfriend. It became harder to think as her fingers ran over the middle of his jeans. He tried to hold back a groan but failed as she skimmed her fingers over again. The smirk on her face became bigger as she realized he was starting to lose control.

"Gabs you don't know the things you do to me." He looked down to see her smiling up at him and saw that small twinkle in her eyes. He couldn't help the smile that grew on his face. "I have to tell you something and right now seems like the best time to do it." She opened her mouth to speak but Troy covered her mouth. "Just let me say this or I might chicken out. When you called me, you said something to me that really meant something to me but you hung up before I could say anything back. At first I was kind of in shock but after a few minutes I realized something. Gabriella, I'm so in love with you and I think I have been for a while. When you told me you weren't coming back I realized that I can't live without you in my life." He trailed his fingers across her cheek, wiping away the tears that fell.

"You don't know how long I've wanted you to say that back. I was afraid to hear your reaction because if I knew you were going to say that, I wouldn't be able to get over you."

"Then why get over me? I mean I'm pretty hard to get over you know." He managed to get a small laugh out of her. "I'm serious though, I'm right here confessing my love for you."

"I know and I had a feeling you were going to on the phone too but I just couldn't handle it if you did. I mean I'm in California and you'll be here in Albuquerque. That's really far away and I don't think I could handle not seeing you everyday like I do now." He wanted to tell her his surprise but he decided to let that wait until later. Instead he grabbed her hands and looked straight in her eyes.

"Everything is going to be alright. I know we can handle anything that gets thrown at us. We've proved that before and I know we can do that now. You just have to believe that we can."

"How come you always know what to say to make me feel better?" Troy chuckled before he answered.

"I guess I'm just that amazing." She slapped his chest as she ran towards the auditorium, laughing at Troy's stunned face. "What am I going to do with that girl?" He mumbled to himself. He ran to catch up to her as they entered the auditorium.

Oh whoopee. Go for it. Save the day

Well another moment has been tackled. I always wondered what happened between the car ride back and them running into the auditorium. I always pictured it to be something like this. Or I least I wish it would be.

Anyways please read and review and I will have plenty more moments to come. Feel free to send any requests. And I don't know how many times I will apologize for SOSNR but I just haven't been paying attention too it for the longest time. I might take a break from it for a while longer. It depends how this summer work out.

READ AND REVIEW!
