Hey, It's Caitlyn. This is chapter is dedicated to Emily, like one of my only friends on here. This chapter is really short because I'm going to be busy all week so I won't be able to update so I didn't want to leave you guys hanging. I guess no one liked the little cliffhanger I left you guys on. Something major well almost major happens in the chapter. Yeah, you've guys asked for it so now you guys have it. Guess what?? I'm going to be taking school on the road with my brothers socccer team and my soccer team, we have a tourny in Sacremento so we're driving there with a home teacher like thing so we won't be missing classes.

Finally, I own absolutely nothing but my Sony vaio laptop, Blackberry curve, my 2g iPod nano, my 4g iPod nano, and my iPod Touch. I wish I owned half the things I mention in here, haha.

On to the story, hope you like it.


"She was daddy's little girl" - Frankie J

"Anyone can be a father, but it takes someone special to be a DADDY!"

"A lover and a single father"


Gabriella stood up quickly and stood somewhat awkwardly as Troy got off the ground and stood up.

"Um, sorry. I wasn't paying attention." Gabriella said, finding the detailing of her UGGS very fascinating.

"Its cool, I just heard you guys walk in, and was coming to say hi. But I'm guessing she's asleep?" Troy said, scratching the back of his neck.

"Um, yea. Sorry we're late getting here, we helped Marisa and Sharpay plan stuff for the wedding today. She was kinda on sugar hi, because we went to IT'SUGAR and kinda crashed on the way home. She should be up in a minute so she can eat dinner and get ready for bed."

"Alright, sounds good. I'm just gonna go get dressed," Troy turned around and walked towards his room.

Gabriella nodded after him, even though he couldn't see her. She blushed having thoughts running through her mind, he was just so hot and just, well perfect in her eyes. She scolded her inner self, thinking of her friend that way, if he ever found out he would absolutely fire her and then Heather would track her down and kill her, burning the remains of her body!

Alex, Troy, Gabriella, and Victoria had a dinner of baked chicken and cheese before Gabriella put Victoria to sleep and Alex retired to her room for the night. Troy and Gabriella were about to start planning a party for Victoria's 4th birthday party.

"SO, she says she wants a princess party and a bouncy bounce party." Gabriella said, as she sat in Troy's office in one of the black loveseats with Troy next to her.

"She told me she wanted to go to the zoo and have a barbeque." Troy said, watching Gabriella's small hands write down the suggestions.

"So maybe we could rent a princess bouncy house, have them play princess games and barbeque for lunch. That could be on Saturday the 24th, and since her birthday is on the 16th, which is a Friday we can take cupcakes into her class at two, and then me, you, Alex, and Tor could go to the zoo and we can take her out to dinner. Do you think they'll let you skip practice on those two days?"

"Most likely since it's her birthday. But my first game is the 22nd so I should be off on the 24th anyway so they would just have to let me out early on the 16th. So we'll take cupcakes into her class and then us four will go to the zoo. Then I guess we'll meet Shar, Chad, Mari, and Ryan at GigglesN'Hugs for dinner, since that's her favourtie restaurant."

"Yea sounds good, how many kids do you think she should be able to invite?"

"I guess around 5, then we will have a even number of kids and at least one adult per kid. And it would most likely be Sophie, Riley, Hannah, Grace, and Ronni. So let's see, Sophie for Shar, Tori for you, Riley for me, Hannah for Chad, Grace for Mari, and Ronni for Ryan. But then Alex and Mel would be here too so she could of two other people of choice."

"That sounds good," Gabriella said, scratching out 5 and writing down 7. Her chocolate curls feel in her face and she tried to flip them back, unsuccessfully. Troy, seeing her difficulty, moved his hand to her face a placed the curl behind her ear. Blue meet brown and they were just staring at each other for a while. "Your eyes are really blue."

"Your nose is really adorable," Their talking was a barely a whisper as they both leaned towards each other.

"Your lips are perfect."

"Your lips are perfecter."

Gabriella giggled slightly at his cheesiness just before their lips touched.

"I've been roaming around, I was looking down at all I see
Painted faces fill the places I can't reach
You know that I could use somebody
You know that I could use somebody
Someone like you and all you know and how you speak
Countless lovers under cover of the street…"
Troy's Blackberry Bold went off, making both Troy and Gabriella jump back so he could answer it.

"Hello?...oh hi, Heather....what's wrong?...um, sure but what for?" Troy continued his conversation trying to slow down his heartbeat while still trying to keep Heather from becoming suspicious. Gabriella made a gesture that she was leaving before she started blushing she jumped up and walked out of the room.

Twenty minutes later the doorbell went off and she heard Heather stupid little baby voice greeting Troy with a "Hey Troysie." God, how she loathed that girl. Wait, did she just say she loathed her? Well technically she didn't say it she just thought never had a problem with her until today, where did this hatred suddenly come from? Gabriella just shrugged it off saying that she was only thinking like this because she was tired. She got up and walked downstairs towards the kitchen to get a drink but stopped when she heard Heather talking to someone on the phone. She assumed Troy wasn't with her and her assumptions were proven right when she heard him in the shower upstairs.

"…why do you like hearing the plan so much baby?....fine, I'm going to get Troy to fall in love with me, while still dating you and then when we get married I'm going to marry him and then take half of his money after I get that little brat taken away from him. Then we'll get married like planned….Alright, I hear someone coming….love you too, bye Armando." Gabriella heard Heather place her phone on the counter and decided to turn around and walked towards Jay's room.

"Jay?" She knocked on the door and heard a faint come in before walking in to see Jay standing there ironing his socks. "Why are? You know what I don't want to know, you can't believe what I just heard!"

"What's that Gabi?" Jay asked placing the iron on the ironing board looking up at her.

"I just heard the Heather wants to marry Troy and then divorce him and take his money but also have Victoria taken away from him. She's such a bitch!" Gabriella said, with disgust, her eyes darkening with anger.

"I heard her say that too, you might not want to tell Troy, he won't believe you, he's too good of a person to see the evil little witch she is. Victoria even told him that Heather said she was going to send her away but he didn't believe her."

"Well, I don't know if I should tell him or not, I have to talk to him about Victoria anyway, she keeps asking about her mom but I don't know what to tell her so I always change the subject."

"I don't know, Gabriella. Its gonna be dangerous, that's a touchy subject for him."

"Yeah, I'll be fine."

"Okay," James stretched out the word, his British accent accelerating. "But don't come running to me when he gets mad."

Gabriella walked out of Jay's room and ran right into Heather. She looked her over with a look of disgust. She had on a usual outfit of designer clothes, green Marc Jacobs skinny jeans, suede heeled ankle boots, a plum Marc Jacobs tee with green, beige, and brown detailing, a black Marc Jacobs admiral jacket, and a JJ Winters bag. Wait, that was her JJ winters bag! "Why do you have my bag?"

"Oh, well it looked better on me, and you never carry it so its mines now." Heather said and her bitchy voice.

"Well, its last season's anyway, take it. I'll just go buy me another one." Gabriella said, resisting the urge to slap the mess out of Heather. She turned on her hill and walked upstairs to check on Victoria and Alex. After seeing that they were both sleeping soundlessly she walked into her own room and got ready for bed, figuring she could just talk to Troy in the morning.

Oh, Also people asked who was dating who so, Troy is dating Heather, Chad is dating Sharpay and has been for four years, Ryan is engaged to Marisa and dated her for three years before that, Alex is dating a dude named Cody, and Gabriella is in a on/off relationship with a dude named Cory. In my mind everyone is picture like so, Troy well Zac, Tori-Violet Affleck, Gabi-Vanessa duh, Chad-corbin obvi, Shar-Ashley-another obvi, Ryan-Lucas another duh, Marisa-Julianne Hough, Alex-Selena Gomez, Mel-Demi Lovato, Allie-Miley Cyrus, Lori-Emily Osment, Cody-Nick Jonas, Emily-Taylor Swift, Cory-Robert Pattinson, Jay-Charles Shaughnessy, Armando Sosa-Dev Patel, Leah Nicole Callaway-Kristen Stewart, Anna Claire Callaway-Ashley Greene, Catrina Alice Lyons-Alexis Bledel, Delilah Blair Lyons-Michelle Trachtenberg, Zack Davis(Emily's bf)-Joe Jonas, Nicholas Jamison(Mel's bf)-Sterling Knight, Matthew Johnson(Allie's bf)-Cody Linley, and Tyler Jones(Lori's bf)-Mitchel Musso.
