We knew he had to fix this. He was going to make it right no matter what it takes.
Chapter 7: Making it right
Gabriella hasn't talked or seen Troy since yesterday and for that she was thankful. She couldn't handle even seeing him anymore, so she avoided him. She walked to her locker and while she was getting out her books she heard her name being called.
"Hey Gabriella!" Taylor said coming up to Gabi's locker.
"Hey, Tay." She said.
"You okay Gabs?" Taylor asked.
"What? Oh yeah I'm fine." She said faking a smile.
Taylor knew it was fake but didn't say anything because she knew what Troy had planned.
"Okay, so what are you doing for New Year's? It's tomorrow." Taylor asked.
"I don't know my mom has to work so probably just stay home." She said.
"Oh how about you come over to my house and we can watch the fireworks together?" She asked.
"Um, okay yeah it'll be fun." Gabriella said.
Taylor smiled. "Cool see you then."
"Okay see ya!" Gabi said walking away.
"Hey Gabs." Taylor said stopping her.
Gabi turned around. "Yeah?"
"It's going to be okay." Taylor said.
Gabriella smiled and walked away.
New Years...
Gabriella hasn't seen or talked to Troy since the other day and she was perfectly okay with that. It was about 11 on New Years Eve and Taylor said she could come over about now. She went outside and walked to Taylors house down the street.
"Hey Gabriella!" Taylor said opening the door.
"Hey." Gabriella smiled.
"Come on in."
Gabriella walked in and saw a ton of Taylors relatives. She laughed a little because they were all acting wild and crazy. The men were screaming at the television watching some football game, the women were watching them and laughing and the kids were running around throwing things at each other.. Gabi thought it was cool because her family was the complete opposite. On holidays her relatives would come over and she would be bored out of her mind because all they do is sit and talk about boring politics or something.
"Sorry about the noise." Taylor said a little embarrassed.
"Oh no it's fine, I like it. My house is always too quite."
Taylor laughed.
"Okay here lets go outside."
"Okay." Gabi said following Taylor.
Outside were just as many of Tay's family members. Taylor's father was grilling and greeted Gabi.
"Hello, Gabriella. How are you?"
"I'm good, thanks. You?" She asked.
"Good," He smiled.
"5 minutes to midnight!" Taylor said her voice filled with excitement. Gabriella laughed.
"Calm down Taylor! It's only New Years."
"It's not just New Years! Tonight Tro..." Taylor was about to say but caught herself.
"What was that Tay?" Gabi asked.
"Nothing, nothing at all." Gabi gave her a weird look but let it go.
Then everyone started counting down. 60...59...58...
"Gabs, this is for you." Taylor said. Handing Gabi a note.
"What is it?" Gabi asked.
"Just open it."
45...44...43
Gabriella unfolded the note and began reading it.
Ella,
First off. Happy New Year. Next I would like to say I'm sorry. I am truly and sincerely sorry. I can't even tell you how much I regret doing what I did to you. I feel so extremely guilty. I need to tell you something else.
35...34...33
I need to tell you that, I love you. I really do. I didn't realize it until the other day when I heard what you sang and everything but I know it know. I love everything about you. I know I say really hurtful things to you and again I'm sorry but I truly think that you are the most beautiful girl I've every laid eyes on.
25...24...23
By this time Gabriella was in tears, but they were happy tears.
I seriously love everything about you. I love your voice, the way you smell, the way you walk, the way you talk and laugh. I love that your smart and have a heart of gold. I truly and deeply love you. And I promise I will NEVER hurt you again EVER! I love you with all my heart.
15...14...13
I'm not asking you to fully forgive me for everything I've done because I don't deserve it I just want you to accept my apology and maybe one day love me back. I understand if you don't love me back I just need to ask you one question. (Look up)
5...4...3...2...1
Confused, Gabi looked up just as the countdown finished and the clock hit midnight.
Everyone yelled 'Happy New Year!'
The fireworks went off and Gabriella was still confused on the question. The confused face was turned into a surprised one when a blueish firework went off in the night sky that read 'Forgive me?'
She was bawling her eyes out because of what Troy's letter said and because this was the sweetest thing anyones ever done for her.
"I forgive you. I love you Troy." Gabi said out loud.
Suddenly she was spun around and kissed. She was shocked at first but when she realized who it was she relaxed and kissed back. The kiss was full of passion and love. They pulled away and Troy asked, "You really love me?"
"With all my heart Troy." Gabi answered.
"I love you Ella." Gabriella smiled her dad was the only one who ever called her that and she would never let anyone else call her that. But with Troy, it just felt right.
"Thank you." Troy said.
"For what?" Gabriella asked.
"For forgiving me."
"Anytime." She smiled.
"Troy, how did you do this?" Gabi asked.
"I know people." He laughed looking in Taylor's direction. Gabriella followed his gaze and smiled at Taylor who returned it and went back to kissing Chad. Gabi just laughed. So did Troy.
They turned their attentions back to each other.
"Happy New Years Ella."
"Happy New Years Troy."
Then they kissed again.
They melted.
