"Gabriella Montez, will you be my girlfriend?"
She looked up, once again, to find Troy still smiling at her. She was at a loss for words, and didn't know what to do. She smiled, and actually began to tear up. Once the first tear had fallen, Troy didn't hesitate to step closer to wipe it away with his thumb. Instead of taking his hand away from her face, he kept it there, staring deep into her eyes.
"Yes." Sniffed a teary Gabriella. "Yes, I will."
And with that, Troy's lips met Gabriella's, and they were entwined in a kiss once again. Troy lifted her off her feet and spun her around, lips still firmly together. In the background, you could hear the soothing fountain water, and the fading, soft melody of a piano, with the words "you're beautiful" fading along with it.
Troy gently let Gabriella down and wiped away the tears that were still falling. His heart pounded faster and faster each time he touched her face. He didn't know what to say or what to think. All he knew is that he wanted this moment to last forever.
Gabriella, on the other hand, was filled with all different emotions. Does he really want to be my boyfriend or is he just asking because I kissed him? Does he care that he's popular and I'm not? Does he want what I want? But all the emotions stirring in her body couldn't overcome the most important one: happiness. At this point, she was beyond being happy. All of the doubts she ever had were forgotten, and she felt absolutely amazing. Every time he touched her face, her heart skipped a beat. All that she wanted right now, was this moment to last forever.
At this point, people were walking by Troy and Gabriella, staring and smiling, as if they knew that they had just become a couple. This just made both of them smile even harder.
At once, they both said "So.." and smiled again.
"How about we go and grab something to eat?" Troy asked.
"Sounds good." Responded a grinning Gabriella.
Gabriella took the empty Build-A-Bear box, and stuffed her new furry little friend back inside. Troy then slipped his hand into hers, and they both smiled while they walked towards the food court.
"So, what are you in the mood for? Pizza, burger, Chinese?" Troy questioned as they approached the food court.
"Mmm..I want cheesecake." Replied Gabriella.
Troy laughed.
"What? You asked."
Troy laughed again and looked at his watch. "Alright. Let's go. We can get your cheesecake from somewhere else okay?"
"But umm…do you even have a car?" questioned Gabriella.
"No, I was thinking we could walk. Come on."
"Wait, what?" Gabriella said, shocked and slightly confused as she followed Troy out of the mall.
And there, in front of them, lay Troy's car, ready to be driven.
"But..I thought Chad drove you here?" said Gabriella, trying to make sense of things inside her head.
"He did. And then he and Taylor came and dropped my car off. Then they went back to Chad's house in Taylor's car."
"Well..did he leave keys?"
"Always got a spare in my pocket." Smiled Troy, unlocking and opening the front door for Gabriella.
After the two got settled in the car, Gabriella couldn't wait to find out where they were going.
"Soo..where are we headed off too?" she asked.
"Somewhere simple. You'll see."
Gabriella wondered what simple meant. And what simple place had cheesecake? Changing the subject, she asked for Troy to put on some music. And with that, Troy pressed Disk 1 and a familiar song flowed through the speakers. Gabriella let the words flow inside her. The song always made her feel like something more than she already was. To her surprise though, once the chorus had begun, Troy started singing along.
You're beautiful,That's all that I can say.
Unforgettable,
I'm caught in every way.
Don't every let the mirror tell you lies,
Just look at your reflection through my eyes.
You're beautiful.
Once Troy stopped singing, Gabriella looked over at him, and saw him smiling back. She once again had tears in her eyes, because even though this song brought her to tears sometimes, the boy that she had been slowly falling in love with had now sung it to her. Troy wiped the tears off her face, and got out of the car. He walked over to the passenger side, and opened the door for Gabriella. Still crying, he wiped the tears away again, and took her hand. Gabriella hadn't even realized that they had stopped, and after taking Troy's hand, she got out of the car and realized they were at…a supermarket?
"Well…he is the one with the car keys." Gabriella thought to herself. "I guess where we go is up to him…"
Hand in hand, they walked to the entrance and got a cart.
"Yeah. A supermarket. Pretty romantic, huh?" Troy said, looking up at what each isle consisted of.
"Are you serious?" Coughed Gabriella, choking on her own spit.
"Hahaha. We'll only be here for a little bit. I just gotta get some things and then we're out of here, okay?"
"Whatever you say weirdo." Gabriella responded, paying more attention to the fruit snacks than to her response. She grabbed a Fruit by the Foot box and made a puppy face at Troy.
"Alright. Put it in the cart. Stay here, I'll be right back."
Gabriella half nodded, still paying more attention to the fruit snacks. She walked around the rest of the isle, discovering Scooby Doo fruit snacks, and all these other characters she had never heard of. By the time she had reached the end of the isle, she had over 5 boxes of fruit snacks in her hands. She was contemplating about which one to buy. They all looked so appealing and so she walked back to cart and dumped all 5 boxes into it. Troy still wasn't back yet, so she decided to keep wandering around. She walked into the next isle which was filled with cereal and cookies. Gabriella had a real sweet tooth. She saw Oreos and Chips Ahoy! and grabbed them both immediately. She sauntered around, surprisingly not finding any more cookies that appealed to her. She headed back to the cart, this time looking at the cereals. She noticed Fruity Pebbles and couldn't help but smile. She picked up a box and happily went back to the cart and dumped her new finds in. She saw Troy coming towards her, but oddly, he was coming in from the entrance.
"Hey. Did you just leave and come back?" questioned Gabriella.
"Yup. So. Um. Is this all?" Troy said, pointing at the stack of snacks that Gabriella had put in the cart.
Gabriella blushed. She hadn't noticed how many things she had actually picked up and put in there. She must have just forgotten about all of the other fruit snack boxes she picked up at random and put in there, and the boxes of cookies just magically appeared in the cart. She dug deep and pulled out the box of Fruit by the Foot and said, "Yeah. This is all."
Troy laughed. "Are you sure you're just gonna forget about the rest of this? Seems pretty appetizing to me."
"Funny. Everything just looked appealing. I don't know. I'm hungry. So anyway, you came here and you're not buying anything?"
"Oh, no. I got my stuff, it's in the car. I saw you wandering around packing this poor cart with food, and decided to let you have your…fun."
"Shut up!" Gabriella said, playfully hitting Troy in the chest.
"Haha, alright then, if that's really all you want, then let's go."
Troy was about to pay for the snack when Gabriella said, "Hey, want a snickers bar?"
"Sure, get like four of them."
Gabriella smirked. "Okay fatty."
Troy turned around to give Gabriella a playfully hurt look.
"Okay Ms. Sticks a bunch of candy and cookies in the cart, call me a fatty. Whatever."
Gabriella laughed and walked out with Troy. She took his hand and continued making fun of him.
"Yeah but at least they had some fruit type nutrition in it. Snickers. What do they have? Fat. That's why you're a fatty." Gabriella explained.
"Hey! You're the one who wanted them in the first place!" Retorted Troy.
"Yeah! One!"
By the time the two reached the car, they were unable to stop laughing. Troy opened the door for Gabriella, and then got in afterwards.
"Where to now?" asked Gabriella, opening a snickers bar.
"You're just gonna have to wait and see." And with that, Troy turned on the car, and started to drive away.
