-1Chapter 6
Recap
"So, what happened to that statement 'this is not that scary'?" Troy asked amused.
"Ok. Ok. Its scary as hell!" Gabriella finally said.
"Good. Well, they said that in that small bridge, if you wait, a lady in white will appear with blood all over her face." Troy said but Gabriella was just staring at one spot, wide eyed.
"Are you listening?" He followed her gaze and saw the lady in white walking.
"Holy--" Troy said as he stared at the scary looking woman.
"Let's go to the ghostly train." Troy said quickly as he pulled a very shocked Gabriella.
What they didn't know, there were more to come in that amusement park and they seemed to be planned by some certain kids…
End of Recap
Troy led Gabriella to the ghostly train. They slowly sat on the seat and looked around the dark place.
"You know, this is seriously creeping me out even though everything is not real." Gabriella whispered to Troy as the two-seat train ride slowly moved. It was a very old looking one and it didn't seem safe.
"Let's just hope this train will stay on the ground." Troy whispered back as he swung his arm around Gabriella's shoulder.
After a few seconds, Troy felt someone touching his back. He gulped and tried to look calm. It started lifting his shirt up and he quickly flinched.
"Are you ok?" Gabriella asked worriedly.
"Fine." Troy lied as he glanced behind him, finding nothing.
"Be strong Troy. Be strong!" He told himself repeatedly.
Finally, after another ten seconds Troy didn't feel anything anymore. But as soon as he sighed in relief, Gabriella jumped up, screaming.
"AAAAAHHHH!" She screamed loudly as she jumped on his lap.
"What's wrong?" Troy asked quickly.
"Someone was touching my neck!" Gabriella said, trembling a little.
"Someone was touching my back!" Troy exclaimed. They slowly stood up on the moving train and they unhurriedly looked down behind the train. Troy kneeled down on the seat and carefully poked his head out, trying to see if there was anyone there.
"Can you see anyone?" Gabriella asked curiously.
"No." but there's a big black chest in here. I didn't notice that before.
"Maybe its inside." Gabriella whispered as she too, looked down at the chest.
"Wanna open it?" Troy asked, interested now.
"Umm.. Ok." Gabriella responded, a little unsure.
Both their hearts pounded as Troy toughed the lid of the chest and very slowly opened it. He quickly pushed the lid out. They looked down and found…….. Nothing!
"Ok.. That was weird." Gabriella said as they both shrugged. As soon as they turned their body around to face the front, both their hands clenched together as the same scary looking woman from outside appeared right in front of them.
"AAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!" They both screamed loudly as they wrapped their arms tightly around them.
"Make it go away Troy. Make it go away!!" Gabriella pleaded as she buried her head on his chest, not wanting to see the woman. Troy didn't want to look at it either since he was hiding in eyes inside Gabriella's hair.
"How?!" He asked.
"I don't know!" Gabriella answered. Troy took a really deep breath and looked up. He wandered around but didn't see the woman anymore.
"Its gone Gabi!" Troy said as Gabriella hesitantly turned her head around.
---------------------------------------
After all the screaming and hugging with all the rides and places in the amusement park, they finally arrived at the last stop. The Clinic of the Dead. Gabriella didn't want to go inside but everyone has to go there to get to the exit.
"Don't worry Gabi! This is the last stop." Troy reassured her as Gabriella grabbed his hand quickly. Troy opened the creaking old door. They both entered the dark clinic headed towards the only door they could see.
"Nothing creepy better not come out!.. Ughh I doubt it!" Gabriella thought as she restrain her eyes from wondering around, afraid to see something she didn't want to see. Before entering another room, Troy slowly poked his head out to see if there was anything there. He looked down at Gabriella and saw her taking deep breaths.
"She's so cute." He thought as he continued to look. He decided to at least make the best of their closeness at that moment.
"Holy ---" Troy exclaimed as he pressed Gabriella's body to his. Gabriella quickly hugged him tightly, not really knowing what Troy saw.
"What is it?" She asked quietly. She waited for a response but didn't get any. She finally looked up and saw amusement in his eyes and huge smirk.
"There was nothing?!" She exclaimed as she finally realised that he did that to get closer to her.
"Bolton we're in the middle of a traumatising moment and you're just playing around with me!!" She scolded as Troy shrugged and suddenly stiffened.
"What now?" Gabriella asked, half believing him.
"Nothing." Troy figured as he knew that Gabriella wouldn't believe him anyway. Someone just pinched his butt!!
"Let's just walk." Troy gulped as he lead her to the next room.
"My feet are getting tired." Gabriella mumbled as Troy chuckled. They paused for a moment as Gabriella rubbed her feet.
"Try playing basketball 24/7!" He exclaimed and suddenly stiffened again.
"Are you ok?" Gabriella asked, now worried.
"Fine. Just fine." He lied.
"Is it really necessary for them to pinch people's butts?!" Troy thought. It was really bugging him and creeping him out.
"Are
you sure?" She asked again.
"I don't know. Some just
pinched--" Before Troy could finish his sentence, Gabriella
screamed and jumped closer to him.
"My butt!" Gabriella exclaimed as she looked around. Suddenly, Troy felt angry.
"If the one that dared touch Gabi is a guy… I swear I'm gonna murder him!" Troy thought as he kept his eyes sharp in case the hand appear again.
After a few seconds, it did!
"Oh
no you're not!!" Troy grabbed the small hand as he quickly lifted
him up and pressed him against the wall.
"Who the hell are you
to touch---" Troy suddenly paused as he realised who it was.
"Rafael?!"
Gabriella and Troy exclaimed in disbelief.
"Hi!" Greeted the
trembling child.
"You're in trouble Rafi!" Gabriella said dangerously as she grabbed his hand and they quickly went to the exit.
"What the hell are you doing here Rafi?!!" Gabriella exclaimed, angry.
"Umm.. Nothing!" Rafael said, backing away from his older sister.
"Buddy, what's going on?" Troy asked as Rafael continued to walk back. Suddenly, he tripped.
"OWW!!" Exclaimed a few voices.
"Oooppps… Sorry." Rafael said in his tiny voice.
"You idiot Rafael! You blew it!" Camille exclaimed as the kids went out of their hiding spot.
"What?" Gabriella said as she stared at her siblings.
"What are you guys doing here? I need answers! NOW!" Gabriella said loudly as she approached the kids who were shifting uncomfortably.
"We just wanted to make sure you're ok." Jeremy lied.
"You guys really don't trust me?" Troy asked sadly.
"We don't like you at all!" Camille finally said as Troy took a deep breath and so did Gabriella.
"Did you guys plan everything?" Troy asked curiously.
"Yes. We wanted to make your date miserable!" Rafael said truthfully as Nicole slightly pinched him for telling the truth.
"How did you do it?" Troy asked, a little interested.
"Aaron, one of our new classmates.. Well.. His dad owns this place and he knows everything in here. He likes Sandra so he did this for us." Jeremy answered.
"How could you guys do this to me?! You've gone to far!" Gabriella exclaimed as she stormed off.
-----------------------------------------------
When they got back to Gabriella's house, Troy didn't really want to leave her.
"Are you ok?" Troy asked.
"I can't believe they did this! I mean, come on! They're acting so… annoying!" Gabriella said exasperated.
"Don't worry. I don't really care if they hate me or not. All I care about is you." Troy said sweetly as Gabriella finally cracked a smile.
"Let's go inside." Gabriella said as Troy shrugged. They Gabriella's room and watched some movies. Gabriella was sitting down, leaning on the board of the bed while Troy rested his head on her lap. Eventually, they both fell asleep.
The next morning, Gabriella felt an aching pain on her back. She'd been sleeping with the same position as the night before. She was about to stretched when she finally realised Troy was also sleeping on her lap.
"Gosh I love you." Gabriella said for the first time. Troy stirred with a smile but didn't wake up. She smiled at his adorable face and starting stroking his hair.
Once
upon a broken heart And
I never believed fairytales came true
I was walking alone in the dark
Looking for
a way to start again
What I wouldn't give for a friend
There
was no love in my life
There was no light in my eyes
All the
tears that I had cried and cried
Seemed like they'd never end
But now I know that they
really do
Now that I found you, now that I'm here with you
Just
look at the sunshine, and you
Showed me a world
That I'd never
seen
I woke up and fell into this dream
Happily ever after just
took time
Once upon this broken heart of mine
She continued to sing and didn't realised that Troy was actually awake already. They both didn't realised the five kids who were watching behind the door.
Never
believed fairytales came true this is the
way a fairytale feels And I never believed
fairytales came true
Long
ago and far away
I could never dream of the day
That your love
would come my way and stay
And sweep me away and I
But now I know that they really
do
Now that I found you, now that I'm here with you
Just look
at the sunshine, and you
Showed me a world
That I'd never
seen
I woke up and fell into this dream
Happily ever after just
took time
Once upon this broken heart of mine
This is the way I know it's real
'Cause
this is the way a broken heart heals
But now I know that they really do
Now
that I found you, now that I'm here with you
Just look at the
sunshine, and you
Showed me a world
That I'd never seen
I
woke up and fell into this dream
Happily ever after just took
time
Once upon this broken heart of mine
She finished the song and Troy's eyes finally opened.
"That was beautiful." He told her as Gabriella leaned down and kiss him on the lips.
"Breakfast ready!" The kids interrupted as Gabriella glared at them.
"Oh crap! My parents are going to kill me!" Troy suddenly realised that he didn't went home or called his parents.
"Yeah you're mom called." Sandra said, rolling her eyes.
"What did she say?" Troy asked curiously.
"That you should get your butt out of here." Jeremy said rudely.
"Oh right. Umm.. I'll see you Gabi!" Troy said as he looked back at the kids. He wanted to give her a goodbye kiss but he knew better, not when the kids were there, watching.
"Bye." Gabriella said.
