Thanks for all the reviews. I really appreciate them. Thank you :D

When Gabriella arrived home from work on Wednesday evening, she was pleasantly surprised to find Troy standing in the kitchen preparing dinner. "Well…well…well…Troy Bolton, cooking, now that's not a sight I see very often!"

"Gee thanks Babe!" he laughed.

"What are you making anyway?"

"I'm attempting to make macaroni cheese…oh by the way there's a package on the table for you!" he gestured to the breakfast bar.

Gabriella's brow wrinkled in confusion as she lifted the large brown envelope. "What is it, it's addressed to you too!"

"Open it…"

"You know what it is don't you?"

"Yup!"

Gabriella rolled her eyes as she ripped the envelope open. "Oh…" she said, surprised as she pulled out a copy of their interview. "They sent us this…?"

"Yeah, you normally get it a week or five days before it goes out in the magazine, but, since we only just did the interview we're only getting it now."

"Oh cool, are you coming to look at it?"

"Try and stop me!" he grinned as he sat down beside her at the breakfast bar.

"Here goes nothing!" she sighed pulling the front cover back to reveal a glossy image of the pair of them. Gabriella dressed in a white laced up corset top and low rise skinny jeans and Troy dressed in a white casual shirt with the buttons halfway buttoned and jeans. Gabriella was standing with her back up against Troy's torso. His hands resting lightly on the small strip of exposed skin at her hips whilst she leaned her head on his shoulder, looking into one another's eyes.

There were various other photos scattered throughout the article including one of the two of them walking along a abandoned corridor, Troy wearing a printed tee shirt and jeans, Gabriella wearing a black dress printed with red flowers, thick black pantyhose and red high heels. Another one was of Gabriella on her own, a simple head shot in which she wore an off the shoulder top and a hat. The final three images imitated a time line. In each Troy simply wore jeans and Gabriella wore skinny jeans and a low rise top that exposed the lacy edging of her bra and a considerable proportion of her toned stomach. The first showed them standing, fingers interlaced, Troy's body pressed against Gabriella's as they leaned against a wall. The second was them kissing and the final one was of Gabriella in Troy's arms as he span her around, laughter evident on their faces.

Its official, the nations heartthrob, Lakers Captain Troy Bolton is no longer a free agent. He tied the knot with long tem girlfriend of seven years, Gabriella Montez, last week, and only here can you read the exclusive as we ask the questions everyone wants to know the answers to and let you know a little more about the woman who has taken Troy Bolton off the market.

When we arrive for our interview, at a hotel in LA, we find the aforementioned couple in the lobby sitting on a sofa, whispering and giggling…the picture of newlywed bliss.

So first things first, congratulations.

Troy: Thank you

So this is you're first interview is that right Gabriella?

Gabriella: Yeah, it is, its pretty nerve racking (laughs) how do you do this regularly? (Looks at Troy)

Well, there's nothing to be nervous about. So Troy, you're officially off the market, how does it feel?

T: Absolutely amazing, there's nothing I want more than to spend the rest of my life with my gorgeous girl.

Tell us a little more about yourselves. Where, when and how did you first meet?

T: Let me see, I do believe the first time I ever met Gabriella was the day she moved into my neighbourhood.

G: What? We didn't meet until I started East High.

T: oh yeah, I haven't told you that story (laughs) The day you moved in mom told me to come and introduce myself but I saw how beautiful you were and chickened out. So yes technically the first day I met you was when you were introduced to our class.

What makes you want to spend the rest of your lives with one another?

G: well that's easy….have you seen his body? (laughs) No, seriously though. Troy's just perfect. He's been there for me though everything, he's my best friend, he understands me and he's the kindest, most generous, most loving person I have ever met. And I love him.

T: You make me sound like a super hero or something

G: You are, to me….(How Cute)

T: I don't know what to say now…why do I want to be with Brie forever? Well let me see, she's beautiful, loving, generous, kind, my world…I don't know what I would do without her. She's the one who encouraged me to pursue my dream, and if it wasn't for her I wouldn't be here today.

Who's the most romantic?

G: Without a doubt Troy

T: Well…

G: Don't argue with me….it's the truth

Really? So how did he propose?

G: (Looks at Troy for permission to tell this story) Obviously, because of Troy's job he can be away for long periods at a time, and it's hard to deal with, I mean I miss him…

T: We miss each other

G: So usually, in addition to obviously talking on the phone we talk via webcam but this one time he was going away he told me he had a really busy schedule and didn't know how much time he'd have to talk on a webcam, but he had an alternative he wouldn't tell me about.

T: I thought it was a pretty smart idea. The first morning I was away I made sure a letter was sent to the house. The latter had a clue written on it, and when she solved the clue she was able to find a hidden card with a message written on it.

G: He had sourced all these little romantic quotes like, 'Last night I matched each star to a reason I loved you. I was doing great until I ran out of stars' and I found one every morning for the next two weeks. Then on the final day, nothing arrived in the post, but later on in the day the doorbell rang and there was an envelope sitting on the doorstep. This time it wasn't just a clue, but a poem and then a clue which led me upstairs and into my closet. When I found the card it said something like, 'This is better than a quote, turn around'.

T: It takes you a while to tell a story doesn't it. (Gabriella slaps him playfully) So she turns around and come wandering out of the closet all confused.

G: And I find three roses, red, black and while lying on the bed with a box tied to the ribbon binding them together. And then Troy appears out of seemingly nowhere and takes the roses and removes the box, kneels down and asks me to marry him.

And there you have it folks, basketball stars can be romantic. So Gabriella, we hear that you are a teacher, that's an unconventional job for a sports mans wife…but very inspiring.

G: Thank you. I always knew that I wanted a career of my own, I don't think I could ever be one of those people who live off their partners money, I need to keep busy.

Are you in anyway interested in basketball, our do you just suffer it for your man?

T: Hey! Basketball is not a sufferable sport

G: (laughing) No, I do like it, but then again its hard not to when you've spent seven years of you life watching your boyfriend play the game. If I hadn't learned to enjoy it I would have been miserable.

Well, I suppose all there's left to say is congratulations and I hope you guys are very happy together

' That actually turned out pretty good!' Gabriella smiled. 'And you look pretty damn hot in those photos! I'm kind of regretting letting you do them. I want to keep you to myself, I don't want creepy old men drooling over you gorgeous body!' 'You don't look half bad yourself. And deal with it, I have to deal with women throwing themselves at you constantly. Just be secure in the knowledge that they can look but you, and only you can touch!'' 'Ditto!' He grinned kissing her forehead. 'Oh and did I tell you that our coach has talked the principle into letting me take some gym classes tomorrow and Friday?' 'Troy...' 'Yes?' He asked innocently. 'What are you doing that for?''Because as soon as that magazine goes on sale it will be madness and I am going to be there to help you deal with it all. I don't want you doing that on your own. If I'm there we will face it together!'


"Morning sister in law…Morning brother….what on earth are you doing here?" Luke asked in surprise as he entered Gabriella's classroom the following morning.

"I'm taking some gym classes today, I want to be here in case it gets mad, with the interview and everything coming out today…"

"The interview? Oh yeah, I'd forgotten about that, do you have a copy, can I see it?"

Gabriella laughed as she reached into her bag and pulled out the copy they had been sent the previous day. In honesty she had anticipated this, she knew the Bolton boys far too well.

The pair waited patiently as Luke finished reading the article.

" So what do you think then? " Troy asked.

"I think that…..that…..the interview is really good, and honest, Gabriella, you look amazing in the photos and Troy….I bet taking some of those photos was simply torturous!"

"what?" Gabriella asked.

"Gabi, I know my brother all too well….admit it, you got a wee bit too excited during those photos!"

"Luke!" Gabriella yelled, embarrassed.

Troy on the other hand simply smirked at his younger brother, "Well you know….she's damn hot!"


"Okay, guys, settle down!" Coach Daniels shouted to a gym of noisy teenagers. "you guys are in for a treat today, we have Troy Bolton from the LA Lakers helping with classes today.

Whispers of exclamation and surprise filled the gym.

"Hi everyone!" Troy smiled at the faces looking up at him. "It's really nice to be here with all of you today. Firstly we're going to start with a few warm up activities. So first things first I need you to split into two teams….."

The majority of the classes Troy took that day followed the same pattern, warm up activity and then a game of some kind, followed by the inevitable questioning and autograph signing.

"Is it really true that you married Miss Montez?"

Troy laughed, "Yes, of course!"

"How did you meet Miss Montez?"

"We met at school!"

"How come you dated a teacher and not someone who was in the public eye like you!"

"I wasn't in the public eye when we started dating, and you can't help who you fall in love with!"

Gabriella's day, was pretty similar. Either before or after her classes started, the questioning began.

"If you're really married to Troy Bolton, how come you are still Miss Montez?"

"Because everything for this semester his Miss Montez stamped on it so, it would have been awkward to change my name, but I will be Mrs Bolton next semester!"


"So, integration is the opposite of differentiation. And to differentiate you move the power on the power down and subtract the power by one. Like this…" Gabriella said, turning to follow through an example on the board.

Troy, who was standing in the doorway of the classroom smiled to himself as he watched his beautiful wife doing what makes her happy, and he was so proud. He loved watching her interact with the class, the way her face lit up when the students grasped the concept she was trying to explain.

RRRRIIIINNNNGGGG

"Okay, that appears to be if for today, remember to complete as much of the exercise as you possibly can and we'll go over it tomorrow."

Troy smiled to the students as they filed out past him. "Did you know, you're unbelievably sexy when you're teaching?" he smirked as he made his way over to her desk and sat down.

"How long were you standing there for?"

"Long enough!" he grinned, grabbing her hand and pulling her towards him, so she was standing between his legs.

"You liked what you seen then?" she smirked.

"Hell yeah!" he laughed, interlacing their fingers. "You really are amazing you know that?" he kissed her softly, "and absolutely gorgeous!"
