Troy suddenly gasped as be bolted right out of bed. His entire body was soaked from his sweat as he dreamt the most horrible nightmare. He turned over to the other side of the bed. Gabriella was still sleeping peacefully next to him. Troy sighed with relief and then laid back down on the bed. He took Gabriella's left hand in his own and rubbed his finger over her two rings. Gabriella's eyes fluttered opened and fixed themselves on Troy staring at her wedding and engagement ring. She turned her hand over and moved to caress the side of his face to let him know that she was now awake.

"Sorry, didn't mean to wake you." Troy told her sheepisly.

"It's alright. What's wrong?" Gabriella asked.

"Just a bad dream that's all."

"You want to share it with me? Sometimes telling others help."

"It's just so stupid."

"I won't tell anyone."

"I dreamnt that you left. You left me for Curt just like he said you would."

"Baby, it's just a dream. You know that you're the only one for me. We're going to bring a child into the world. Our child. One we created with our love. Nothing could ever take me or the baby away from you. You're stuck with us for life."

Troy chuckled as he pulled his wife closer to him. Gabriella threw her arm over his torso and leaned her head against his chest as she was soothed by the beat of his heart. A small smile graced her lips as she felt Troy move his hand over to rest on her stomach. Every chance he got, Troy would place his hand on top of her and just rested it there in case the baby could tell that its father was out here waiting.

"Still think it's a girl?" Troy asked Gabriella.

"Almost positive. When we go to the doctors next week, we can find out." Gabriella answered. "That way we can start getting ready. Where are we going to put the crib?"

"Well, for the first few months we can have a cradle in our room and when she gets older we can section off a part of the living room."

"Do you think we could afford our own apartment next year? If we both get jobs."

"We might, hopefully somewhere close to campus."

"By the time March Madness comes around, I'll be a blimp."

"You'll be the sexiest blimp ever." Troy joked as Gabriella laughed. "You are going to be the most beautiful pregant woman ever to walk the face of the earth."

"Seriously?"

"I desire to have you right now." Troy whispered leaning in to kiss her once again.


After the Christmas break ended, Troy, Gabriella, Zeke and Sharpay flew back to school. Zeke and Sharpay had decided to get an apartment off campus together with the help from Sharpay's parents. Troy and Gabriella showed Resident Life their marrige license and ceritificate to prove that they were indeed truly married and began to move into their new dorm in married student housing. Both couples were taking the last remaining belongings of theirs from their old dorm rooms.
Curt walked back into his room after his vacation. He noticed all of Troy's stuff was gone and thought that it was good because now he could display pictures of Gabriella without her boyfriend seeing them. He began to unpack his belongings when his new roommate entered. Curt recognized him from the basketball team and was a little curious to what happened to his former roommate.

"So what happened to Bolton?" he asked.

"Moved to a different dorm." Steven Marcus answered.

Curt nodded his head and then went to go see if Gabriella was back from vacation. He had a late Christmas gift for her, a pair of Harry Winston diamond earrings. They were simple, but she would make them elegant for sure. Curt knocked on the girl's dorm room. Two red haired girls answered the door.

"Hi, can we help you?" one asked.

"Is Gabriella Montez here?" Curt asked.

"Gabriella doesn't live here anymore."

"Which dorm is she in right now?"

"She moved over to Clemment Hall."

"But that's married student housing. Why is she over there?"

"She and Troy Botlon got married over Christmas break. It must have been extremely romantic. Getting married two days before Christmas."

"What?" Curt demanded.

"Yeah, Gabriella's also pregant. She's due at the end of the semester."

Curt stood there stunned. Anger was flowing throughout him. She married him. She married him and was expecting his child. Curt stalked off not even thanking or saying goodbye to the two girls. All he could think about was what had gotten into Gabriella.


Gabriella gasped as Troy thrust deeper into her. She clutched his shoulders tightly as she enjoyed the feeling. Her mouth hung open as Troy brushed against her once again, sending her closer to heaven. Troy bent forward and kissed her passionately. He gnetly bit her lower lip as Gabriella's nails dug into his skin as she climaxed. Troy soon followed and then collapsed beside her. Gabriella moved to have him wrap his arms around her. Both enjoyed the feeling of basking in their love for one another. For them, nothing could ever be better for either one of them than just laying next to one another with no care or worry in the world, just the love for one another.
