I DO NOT OWN HSM!

:: Real or Not Real ::

*Gabriella's POV

So, we already sent mom's car back (A/N: Don't know how to do that but I think I heard or read something like that). We just paid extra charges so they would agree on not telling mom where we were when we sent it (A/N: Made that up! Like you read, I don't know how that works and... I'm not from the US so I really am clueless here!)

And now, our problem with airplanes... They won't allow us if we don't have adult supervision and well... we don't have any! How am I gonna do this?

While thinking of a way to get into the airplane without being asked where mom or dad or our guardians are, I felt someone tugging my shirt. I looked down and saw Caleb trying to get my attention. "Hmm?"

"Gabriella, I really need to pee now," he said, his face getting red from embarassment of something I think.

"Do you want Jared to help or me? I asked him.

"I don't care whose gonna help me. I just need to pee," he snapped. This little boy here is transforming into a prince again.

I shook my head before taking his hand into mine and motioning Jared to follow us. He's so busy playing with my iPhone-yes, I saved up to buy my gadgets and to not need to ask mom for money-and just followed us without looking up.

We were walking out of a hallway from the comfort room. I just took Caleb in the female's room since he's just five and no one will care. Jared just stayed and waited outside while playing Temple Run, I think. He was so busy playing while walking so he accidentally collided with a man walking to the opposite direction.

"Ow!" I heard Jared yell.

I turned to look at him and saw him holding onto a steward, I think at the age around thirty, who luckily caught him before he fell on the ground.

"Jared!" I called while he was straightening himself. "Are you okay?"

"Yes, uhmm... I'm sorry, sir, I wasn't looking on my way," he apologized to the man.

"It's alright, young man. Pay attention on where you're going next," the man said, patting Jared's shoulder and then left.

"And thank you miss..." he started to thank the steward but was cut.

"It's okay, sweetie. It's my job to keep you safe," she said. "Be careful next time."

I think I already saw here before but I can't remember when and where...

"Thanks," Jared thanked again.

W-wait! I remember now! I know her!

"Uhmm.. Wait, please..." I called.

"Yes? May I help you- oh wait! Gabriella? Is that you?" she asked. I knew I know her!

"Aunt Sarah?" Now, I clearly remember. Aunt Sarah is uncle Eric-dad's brother-'s wife. I met her when I was younger and almost forgot her face.

"Oh, hi, Gabriella. How are you? I thought you live in New York? Why are you here? Where's your mom?" aunt Sarah asked.

"Nice to meet you again, aunt Sarah," I replied. "We're fine and yes we live in New York."

"Are these Jared and Caleb? They so big now! Last time I saw you was almost five years ago, I think? You're all grown up now," she said. Did I forget to say that she loves to talk?

"Uhmm... Yeah, these are Jared and Caleb," I replied. Jared smiled at her while Caleb waved his hand to say hello.

"Why are you here?" she asked.

"Uhmm... We were planning to visit dad but... we can't."

"Why? Where's Juno?"

"We need adult supervision and she's not with us... I'm thinking maybe you can help us with that?"

"Are you leaving without your mom knowing?" she asked suspiciously.

"Mom has been trying to make Gabriella marry someone and were just hiding from her," Caleb suddenly spoke.

"Ugh, yeah. That's it. Mom has been so persistent on me marrying Marcus for my 'future'. But I don't love him. I don't even like him! And mom being mom, she won't stop until I marry him..."

"But you're just like sixteen! You're so young to be married and you said you don't even like him? Oh, no.. I don't like that. I get it, I'll be your guardian for this flight so you'll be able to visit your dad." Yes! She agreed to be our guardian.

"Thank you so much, aunt Sarah! This means so much to me," I thanked her.

"Yes, yes, so what time are you going?"

"In ten minutes," I replied "New York to New Mexico."

"What a coincidence, I am assigned to that flight. I can take you with me," she smiled.

"Thanks. And please, don't tell mom about this..."

She smiled warmly at us. "Don't worry, I won't"

And with that, I held Jared and Caleb with my both hands and we just followed her to the entrance, a smile on our faces. At last, we're done with our problems here and we're going to visit dad. Albuquerque, New Mexico, here we come!

Authour's Note:

So, I didn't do what I said before... But I promise, I'll upload it next time. I just had to show how they got from New York to New Mexico.

Next chapter, you will meet Cedric Montez and Ashley Kaiser and know something about Gabriella's past, past as in even before Marcus. :)
Want some hint? Hmmm... I think the title would be.. "You?!" LOL I know it doesn't make sense but maybe if you're an agent, you might have a clue with it :)

Okay, so Christmas is coming and I don't know if I'll be able to update sooner, but sooner the better )
Belated happy birthday to the girl in Hollywood I will love forever and always, Vanessa Anne Hudgens! xx

This chapter is super shorty and I hope you'll forgive me for that. Hope ya like it )
Please read and review!

Love lots,
~H
