Chapter 7

As Mr Bolton wanders into his back garden trying to find his son. Whispers and giggles can be heard from the tree house.

"Troy must be entertaining company," thinks Mr Bolton

And object falls out of the tree house landing in the pool with a splash.

"Troy that was my phone!" shrieks a female voice and slap is heard.

"I'm going," mutters Troy jumping down from the tree house stripping his t-shirt off as he does.

"Son what have I told you about jumping from the tree house," says Mr Bolton

"Oh hey dad," greets Troy before jumping into the pool to retrieve Gabriella's phone.

Long tanned legs appear from the hatch of the tree house and the some blue shorts further up the legs until the upper body and raven hair can be seen as the girls reaches the bottom of the ladder.

She turns round and Mr Bolton can see it is Gabriella Montez. A bikini is clearly visible under her strappy white wet top. Obviously she's been in or been pushed in the pool with or by his son.

"Oh gosh I hope it isn't broken," she mutters

Troy emerges from the phone holding the phone and heaves himself out on the side shaking his head like a dog water splaying everywhere.

"Troy," squeals Gabriella

Troy passes her phone.

"It's cracked and water logged your gunna need a new one," says Troy

"How am I going to explain that to mum. Money doesn't grow on trees she'll say," says Gabriella

"Say your stupid idiotic boyfriend accidently pushed it out of the tree house and it fell in the pool," says Troy

"Doesn't mean she'll get me a new one," says Gabriella

"Troy can foot the bill," says Mr Bolton

Gabriella turns around at the sound his voice.

"Hey Mr Bolton," says Gabriella

Call me Jack out of school Gabriella," says Mr Bolton

"Come on," says Troy "Let's go talk to your mum about the phone thing," he says draping his jacket around Gabriella shoulders so her mother doesn't say anything about her top and bikini.

"No absolutely not I am not footing a bill for a new phone because of your stupidity of not leaving it where it was safe instead of up in a tree house with that boy," shouts her mum "And what were you doing in a tree house with that boy and why are you wet and wearing his jumper what have you got to hide,"

Gabriella unzips her jacket.

"One it is Troy's letterman jacket that he gave to me. Two he pushed me in his pool. Three you would of shouted at me if I hadn't taken my phone with me and five Troy and I were just talking it isn't a crime and six Troy's dad said Troy had to foot the bill for a new phone since it was Troy's fault," says Gabriella

"No you can wait," says her mum "And I want you to break up with that boy he is obviously a bad influence on you if you are letting him push you into a pool and your haven't studied your Harvard books for weeks," rants her mother

"Troy is buying me a phone because his father said he had to. If I don't get a phone you'll have a go at me because you can't get into touch with me or I can't with you. I will not break up with Troy you can't make me and I DON'T WANT TO GO TO HARAVRD THAT WAS YOUR DREAM MOTHER NOT MINE I REFUSE TO BECOME YOUR IDEAL DAUGHETER I NEED TO BE MYSELF AND IF YOU HAVE A PROMBLEM WITH THAT I WILL MOVE OUT," shouts Gabriella

Before another word can be said Troy walks in and picks Gabriella up.

"Brie you need to calm down and then come back and talk to you mum nice meeting you again Mrs Montez I'll bring Gabriella back when she has calmed down," says Troy and he walks out carrying Gabriella with him.
