Last Time…
Tyra turned back to Troy and said,
"Thank you again for coming on. I am so happy that I got to meet you. You know you don't really seem like the type who would get angry easily, like Kayla said."
"It's no problem; I really enjoyed meeting you as well. I really only get angry when someone does something to hurt the ones I love. Like when that ass hole Josh-" Troy's eyes widen and he ran as fast as he could to the door leaving a shocked and confused Tyra standing there.
Chapter Eight
Finally
How could he have been so stupid? Josh! Of course, who else hated him enough to take Gabriella away from him? He pulled out his phone a phoned Detective Grieco.
"Hello, Detective Grieco speaking." The detective answered.
"I know who took Gabriella!" Troy said.
"Who?"
"His name is Josh Clark, we knew him in High School, he hated me. Then a little over a year ago I got him fired because he was hurting Gabi at her job, he was a teacher as well." Troy explained.
"Why didn't you tell us this before?"
"I don't know, I didn't think of it! I'm so stupid! I'm on my way to his mother's house, hopefully she'll know where he is." Troy said.
"Ok I'll call Officer Jones and he'll send for back up."
"No, I don't think anyone but me should go, it might scare her, but you should call Officer Jones and tell him."
"Fine, call me when you know anything."
"Ok bye" Troy said hanging up the phone.
Troy hoped in his car, and began driving to Mrs. Clark's house.
Gabriella sat shivering in the dark, cold basement. She was getting weaker and weaker as the days wore on. She prayed that the baby was still alive.
She was rubbing her stomach when suddenly she felt a wet patch form under her – her water had just broken.
Tear began leaking out of her eyes.
"No, please no, Troy please find me." She cried softly.
All of a sudden the door flew open and Josh stormed in.
"Why the hell are you crying!" he demanded. Gabriella said nothing.
"Talk to me!" he yelled. Again Gabriella did not reply.
"Have you finally realized that Troy isn't coming to save you? He's glad you're not near him anymore, you were a distraction to him!" Josh yelled kicking her leg. As he did this, he noticed the wetness Gabriella was sitting in.
"Ahhh, finally, the baby!" he grinned evilly. I can't wait, this will be so much fun." With that he walked out laughing wickedly. Gabriella broke down in sobs.
"No! Please Troy I need you!" She cried.
Troy pulled up outside Mrs. Clark's house. Troy had met Mrs. Clark once before and she was nothing like her son, she was really sweet. He got out of his car, walked up to the front door and rung the doorbell.
A few seconds later the door opened and a women who looked about as old as his mother said,
"Hello, can I help you?"
"Yes actually you can. My name is Troy Bolton, I don't know if you remember me, but I went to East High." Troy said politely.
"Ahh yes of course. Troy Bolton the captain of the basketball team, I remember, please come in." She said leading him into the living room.
"So what brings you here?" she asked him.
"Well, it's about your son. I was wondering, do you know where Josh is?" Troy asked. Mrs. Clark's smile faded quickly.
"Last time I saw Josh all he wanted was money." She said coldly.
"When was that?" Troy asked.
"About 2 weeks ago on the 4th of January." She answered.
"Did he tell you where he was going, please it is really important."
"He just gave me the telephone number, in case of an emergency or something, but he told me not to tell anyone. Why?"
"I don't know how to tell you this, but I think he took my wife; she's nine months pregnant and I really need to find her." Troy begged.
"Oh my goodness, I was reading about you in the paper. Is your wife Gabriella? How could Josh do such a thing?"
"Yes, and I really need to find her please give me the telephone number." Troy said.
"Of course of course here it is." Mrs. Clark replied.
"Thank you so much Mrs. Clark, you have no idea how much this means to me." Troy said thankfully.
"No problem, and Troy, you are a good man, your wife is very lucky to have you." Mrs. Clark said.
"Thank you, I'm lucky to have her." Troy said before hugging her goodbye and walking out. As soon as he got into the car he dialed Detective Grieco.
"Hello"
"Detective, I've got a phone number. Can you trace that to an address?" Troy asked hopefully.
"Yes give me the number"
"Ok 567 425 2750." Troy said.
"Ok one second, let me just put it into the computer." Troy waited anxiously for what seemed like five hours.
"Ok I got it. 23 Hollow Street, Kennelwood, New Mexico." The detective said.
"Ok I'm on my way. Call Officer Jones and tell him to meet me there."
"Will do, see you there."
"Ok bye"
"Bye" Troy hung up the phone and shifted his car into full speed heading as fast as he could to Kennelwood.
Gabriella sniffled; she had been crying for hours worried sick about her baby. She hoped so badly that Troy would come and fine her soon. The contractions were now 15 minutes apart, she counted since she didn't have a watch. Suddenly she heard running upstairs and a door open and then close again. Then she heard banging and finally a door being slammed down. Gabriella could hear footsteps upstairs and someone was called,
"Gabi! Gabriella are you here?" she recognized the voice, it was Troy's! Thank god!
"I'm down stairs" she yelled weakly, her voice not as strong as it could be. However Troy heard her, he opened the basement door and came running down the stairs.
"Gabi!" he exclaimed, running over to her.
"Troy!" she cried. He immediately took off his jacket and wrapped it around her, providing her with warmth.
"Baby, I'm so glad I found you, I'm sorry I let him take you. I love you so much." Troy said kissing her.
"I love you too." She said, but then another contraction came and she winced in pain.
"What? What wrong Gabi!" he asked anxiously.
"I…the…my…wa…water…br…broke…baby…com…coming" Gabriella stammered weakly in between breaths.
"Oh my god! It's ok we'll get you to the hospital." Troy said picking her up and carrying her to the ambulance.
7 hours later Troy and Gabriella were in a hospital room, in the final stages of giving birth.
"Why did you do this to me?" Gabriella screamed
"I'm sorry baby, you're doing great." Troy soothed.
"I can't do this anymore!" she yelled.
"Yes you can baby, come on we're almost there." Troy coached.
"Just one more push Mrs. Bolton." The doctor said. With one finally push and the scream that came along with it the baby's cried filled the room. Gabriella collapsed with exhaustion, this was possibly too much for her, and she was too weak.
Troy looked to Gabriella and as soon as he saw her concern filled him. She looked so pale and weak.
Suddenly Gabriella's eyes shut and the monitors began beeping insanely.
A/N: So finally Troy found Gabriella, but now it doesn't look so good for Gabriella. Will she be alright? Please review, oh and I almost forgot who wants to take a guess at whether the baby will be a boy or a girl? By the way I made up the phone number, the address and the town. Thank you so much for reading.
