Chapter 4

After their dinner was paid and eaten. Troy led Gabriella to his car. Troy said "We should hurry if we are going to catch the movies." "Okay Gabriella said. Troy what you said to me in the restaurant really meant a lot Ive been waiting forever for you to say it." Troy looked down at her and said "and Ive been waiting forever to tell them to you. Hey we still have time left before the movie want to go to the park." "Sure" Gabriella said. He opened the door for her and got into the driver's side. As he drove she noticed that he kept checking her out. First he checked out her face then her chest and lastly her skirt which was covering her private part. "Troy Gabriella said keep your eyes on the road." " Its hard to when I have someone as beautiful as you like an inch away from." She laughed and said "Like I haven't heard that one before." " Hey Troy said cut me some slack Im a guy." She laughed and shook her head.

Finally they arrived at the park. It was dark now and nobody was out. Troy parked the car and sighed they sat in silence holding hands and listening to each other breathe. Then suddenly Troy turned to Gabriella with want in his eyes. Slowly he closed the distance between them and pressed his mouth to hers he slowly kissed her. He remembered when they had first kissed it had been a dare at a party. He had been so nervous then he had almost bit her lip. Now there was no nerves but pure lust. Gabriella hungrily kissed him back and he slid his tongue into her mouth making her moan. They stayed like this for a good five minutes before pulling away out of breathe. He looked at her and said "I love you." She smiled and stroked her fingers in his hair. After catching their breath Troy looked at Gabriella and then looked at her skirt, He looked at her with want and said "Can I." Nervously she said "yes." He stroked her thigh gently and then his hand went under her skirt and touched the elastic band of her underwear. Then he went back to kissing her and removed his hand.

"Don't" she said and reached for his hand and began putting it back underneath her skirt. He pulled away from kissing her and said "No, not here Gabi not in the park." " Okay" she said softly. He sighed and threw his head back against the drivers seat. "Your killing me Gabi" he said jokingly. She laughed. "We should get to the movie" he said and he put his seatbelt on and reversed the car out of the park. All throughout the movie Troy and Gabriella stole kisses from each other and shared smiles. When the movie was over Troy looked at his phone and said" I should get you back home its almost 12." "Okay "Gabriella said. She looked at him before getting in the car and intertwined their hands saying" I had a really good time tonight, I wish it wasn't over."He sighed and said "I know but we have everyday to be together" he said smiling. She smiled back and said "Cmon Wildcat take me home."

They drove in silence just thinking about the past hours that they had been together. When the parked in her driveway she got out and he followed walking her to her door. "Well this night has been eventful" she said smiling at him. He smiled back and said "I hope you liked it." "Trust me she said it's a night I will never forget." He hugged her then pulled away and kissed her and of course she kissed him back. She stepped away and said "Bye Troy." He pulled away from her and said "Bye beautiful sleep good." She smiled and got one last glance of him getting in his car before opening her door.

She closed the door beaming and headed up the stairs. "Night mom" she said on her way up. "Night honey her mom said how was the date was he nice."Gabriella turned around and still beaming "he was awesome as always." Her mother smiled at her and said "Im glad he makes you happy." Gabriella started walking up the stairs in said "You have no idea."

Gabriella went to her room and started to undress and put on her long sleeve shirt and pajama bottoms. Suddenly her cell phone vibrated. She looked at it as she was getting in bed there was texts from Taylor, Sharpay and her other friend Kelsi Nielsen. All asking her how her date went, She decided to tell them in person what happened. She laid and bed in shut her light off. She could smell Troy's scent on her and shivered in delight as fell asleep thinking about it.

The next day at school there was a buzz in the air. Last night before Troy had gone to bed he had told his best friend Chad of what had happened on the date with Gabi. This is how it went "Dude no way you asked to be your girlfriend!" " Yes "Troy said happily. "And did she say yes." " Of course" Troy said proudly. Well its about time you two got together. The whole gang has been waiting for this day to come. "We are so happy for you man." " Thanks"Troy said still beaming as he talked. "Well I'll see you tomorrow at school." " See you man."

Troy put his phone down and smiled to himself thinking about Gabriella and how beautiful she looked tonight. Finally he rolled over and went to sleep.

At school the next day Troy walked into East High with Chad and Jason on either side of him. He had driven them to school as usual and he was excited to see Gabriella to know that last night wasn't just a dream of his. First he went to his locker to get his books then he headed to her locker and waited for her. "Wow Troy one day and your whipped already" Chad said. "Ha ha trust me Chad Im not being whipped by Gabriella I just happen to love her." " Aww isn't that sweet" Chad joked. "Chad Troy said jokingly get to homeroom you re making me mad." " See ya lover boy" Chad said leaving.

It seemed like forever until Gabriella arrived, when she did she walked over to her locker and smiled at Troy. As always she looked as beautiful as ever. Some of the other senior guys looked at her and one of them whistled. Troy sent daggers at the guy. Gabriella just laughed and said "Troy calm down you just asked me to be your girlfriend no one else knows yet." " Well I don't care" Troy said "your mine." Gabriella raised her eyebrows "what I am a toy" she asked him while spinning her combination. "Oh you know what I mean Gabi "Troy said. Gabriella laughed again. "So I thought we could eat our lunch together at our secret spot" Troy said. "Just you and me" Gabriella said. "Just you and me" Troy repeated. Okay Gabriella said. Kay Troy said I'll see you in homeroom. Bye Gabi he said while leaning down and kissed her forehead. Instantly a smile erupted on her face as he kissed her. Troy watched her smile and stroked her cheek while saying "Your beautiful." She blushed and turned back to her locker and heard him walk away.

As soon as he left Gabriella closed her locker and saw her best friends Sharpay and Taylor walk towards her. "So" Sharpay said "how was last night." Gabriella smiled and began walking with them "Guys it was amazing." "What do you mean amazing" Taylor questioned. "Spill Gabriella" Sharpay said. "Well" Gabriella said "Troy took me to a dinner and a movie and then he asked me to be his girlfriend" she said while beaming. "Gabriella ! This is amazing" Sharpay said. "Please tell me you said yes." "Of course I said yes I would never hurt him like that I love him." "Aww" Sharpay and Taylor both said "she loves him they said smiling." "Guys relax its not that big of a deal" Gabriella said. "Of course it's a big deal we have been waiting for this since you two first met in junior year" Taylor said. "Whatever" Gabriella said "I have to get to class." And Gabriella headed into homeroom.
