Troy stood in shock expecting to see someone enter the gate. It had been long enough and both he and the other traipsed out the side gate. Entering the front yard they both saw what had caused the havoc.

There stood a bin of previously lit fireworks- with Chad, Zeke and Jason next to it. Troy laughed walking over to them.

"Gosh your guys! That was kind of freaky it sounded like a gun more than your usual fireworks," Gabriella said greeting the guys with a hug.

"Well who really knew you shouldn't use a plastic bin with fireworks, right?" Chad asked unconvinced himself. Troy laughed inviting them into the backyard, for dinner.

"Gabi, let's go. We have to get you home now," Troy yelled over the fence. Gabriella had told him she would be ready in five minutes. But twenty minutes later she was still there talking to Troy's cousins.

Gabriella yelled a last goodbye before grabbing Troy's hand and skipping down the street. Slowing down Troy asked, "So, you seem to be getting along really well with my family. That's cool."

He had no idea what to say. "Yeah! Troy you're so lucky to have your family in Albuquerque with you," Gabriella's cheerful tone slightly dropped at her last words.

Troy tightened his grip.

"Gabi, I'll understand if you don't want to tell me but… can I ask where exactly is your dad?"

Gabriella looked up knowing Troy had a right to know. There was nothing tragic about the situation except the fact that she rarely talked to her dad.

"Well when I was eight, my family was living in Los Angeles. My dad worked hard but always had time for my mum and I. At the time he was assistant coach for The Lakers. I turned nine and my dad walked in the door telling us that he'd been promoted to the full time position as the LA Lakers coach. Mum didn't really like the idea of living away from her own family, so they got a divorce and mum became more into work, moving at every chance she had," Gabriella finished looking up at Troy.

Troy had a smile on his face. She definitely hadn't expected that. He turned saying, "Gabi, that's pretty horrible to go through at that age. But one thing, can I please meet your dad?"

Gabriella laughed, "Troy! That is the first time any guy has wanted to meet his girlfriend's dad! Amazing!"

Troy smirked holding onto Gabriella waist.

"Troy it's funny because I am actually meant to be visiting him for my birthday. Maybe you and the gang can come- you may be lucky enough to meet the Lakers," Gabriella said watching Troy's reaction.

Troy lifted Gabriella off the ground spinning her around making her giggle. Putting her down they continued walking down the street until the reached her porch.

"Thanks for inviting me tonight. I've never had someone who's actually wanted me to meet their family. It means a lot," Gabriella said kissing Troy softly.

"I'd do anything for you. That means I need to show everyone how much I love and adore you. You better go, I love you," Troy said.

"I love you too, goodnight," Gabriella said closing the door after her. Sliding down the door she realized how much she really did care about Troy.
