Fault
Gabriella looked over her shoulder as she chopped the celery on the counter. Ron, or as he wanted her to call him, sweetie was playing with "their" son. She really wished Troy was searching for them and not having a laugh or a party because he was now free. He'll get what he wants. I'll even give him the damn divorce if he wants it. She thought. Her stomach made a little flip and she could feel the bile rising in her throat. She couldn't throw up again. Ron had already questioned about her running to the bathroom five times in two hours. She swallowed it down, trying not to make any gagging noises. She threw the celery into the pot on the stove and turned it on. She went back to the cook book on the counter. "Ten minutes to boil…" she mumbled. She never cooked before. She either had take-out or never ate dinner. Troy usually cooked for them, but mostly for himself and Owen because her job required her to stay late. Is that why he's been such an ass lately? Because she was staying at the office late? She shook her head of the thoughts. She needed to make Ron happy for her son's safety. It's been three days since she's left home, put the wig on and called her son Kevin. She told Owen to respond to Kevin because it was a game the three of them were playing. Ron would disappear everyday at the same time to the store and each time Gabriella would try and find a way out, but every time she failed.
Gabriella looked at the soup that was in the pot. It didn't look well. It was one of those vegetable soups. It wasn't ready. She heard Owen squeal. She looked over her shoulder one more time and watched Ron tickle her son. She could feel the tears building up, but she quickly pressed her palms against them and opened her eyes. She couldn't cry. It would give him the satisfaction of winning. He wasn't going to win. Not in her account. So many times she let Robert in the past win, but so many times had she gotten away from him. Robert…his name made her skin crawl. The way he had everything in his mind and not explode. She shook her head again and looked at the clock. Not time yet. She let out a quiet sigh and scratched her head. The wig gave her a headache. She hated it, but what Ron wanted he got. He even got the pleasure of having her last night as desert. She didn't even fight back. Owen was next-door and she didn't want him to hear fighting. Strange, she didn't give a hell if he heard one of her little fights with Troy.
The timer buzzed and she jumped out of her thoughts and went straight to the pot. She poured it into three bowls and placed them on the table. She got out the cups and filled them with water and milk for Owen. "Dinner's ready." She called out having a big smile on her face. House-wife. How she would hate the job if Troy wanted her to even consider it. Ron and Owen ran into the kitchen and kissed Gabriella on the cheek. Ron took his time giving his wife a kiss on the lips. Gabriella pulled away whispering; not while he's here. Ron smirked to himself. He had his wife whipped around his finger, but he still had to do one more thing before they could be happy. He sat down at the opposite of his wife and looked at her as she blew on Kevin's (Owen) soup. "There you go." She said sitting in her chair and taking her spoon in her hand. The three of them started talking as if it was a picture perfect family.
With Troy
It had been three days since he found out Gabriella was gone. Three days since he wept and blamed himself. If he hadn't said anything, she would be here right now finding their kid. He sat on the couch watching the other wall. It seemed as if yesterday was the day they were planning their wedding…
Flashback
"Okay so what do you want for the wedding?" Sharpay asked as Troy, Gabriella and herself sat down in the living room.
Troy and Gabriella looked at each other and gave questioning looks. They looked back at Sharpay and Gabriella just let Troy answer that question for himself. "Um…get married?" Troy said in a kind of "duh" tone.
"Don't get smart with me mister. I mean what colors do you want?" Sharpay said.
"We don't know…" Gabriella said. Troy and Gabriella had no idea on how to plan their wedding. They just wanted it in a church with all their friends and family
"Ok, thanks to me I got a book full of dresses, suits, flowers, colors, everything!" Sharpay said digging through her oversized bag. Finally she took out a big book and handed it to Troy and Gabriella.
They opened the book and looked through them. After three pages Gabriella looked up as Troy went through the book. "Um these all look…well what I'm saying is there not us Shar." Gabriella said.
"Ok fine, Ms. Picky Pants." Sharpay said.
"Hey!" Gabriella said making her pout face.
"Yeah, yeah pout all you want doll face, but you know it's true." Sharpay said in a singing voice.
Gabriella rolled her eyes. "Ok what are your favorite colors?" Sharpay asked.
"Yellow." Gabi said.
"Blue…" Troy said looking at all the designs in the book.
"Ok, so how about this. We get light blue and yellow roses. That can be your bouquet of flowers. And then for the bridesmaids we have white roses?" Sharpay asked.
Gabriella looked at Troy. "What do you think?" she asked.
"I like it…just I think there's a catch." Troy said looking worriedly over at Sharpay who was smiling innocently.
"Yes there is. I was thinking at the reception we have these flowers that are colorful. There so beautiful, trust me. Look on page 67." Sharpay ordered.
Gabriella and Troy looked at the flowers which were on page 67. They were nicely done.
"The table cloths will be all white and light blue. Those flowers can be the center pieces." Sharpay said.
"Yeah, but what about the church flowers?" Gabriella asked.
"I thought we chose Light blue, yellow and white roses. We can combine them. Oh and your dress Gabriella, look on page…Argh what was it…oh yeah it's on page 754." Sharpay said bouncing on her seat.
Gabriella took the book form Troy who gave a small pout, but got up once he heard Owens's cries. Gabriella looked at the dress in front of her. it was white and…more than she could imagine. "I love this dress." She said staring at it.
"Good and close the book, Troy is coming." Sharpay said. Gabriella closed the book and looked at her. She was going through things speedily.
"Ok so the bridesmaids' dresses can be light blue?" Sharpay asked looking up at Gabriella.
"Yeah." Gabriella said nodding her head. Troy waked into the room holding Owen.
"He's hungry." Troy said simply.
"And?" Gabriella asked.
"Well I don't have…you know." Troy said.
"Troy I got him off early. I only do morning feedings. There's breast milk in the kitchen. Gabriella said.
"Wait, hold up he's off of them and you didn't tell me?" Troy asked with a pout on his face. Sharpay rolled her eyes. Gabriella got him hooked to the pout face.
"Yes, because we're waiting till our wedding night bud, go feed him." Gabriella ordered.
"Fine, but I can say one thing. We are not sleeping on our wedding night. Troy said simply and walked into the kitchen.
"I'm going o kill him." Gabi said to Sharpay.
"Your making him wait two more months?" Sharpay asked writing down the orders she needed.
"Uh, yeah, it'll be special. By the way you and Zeke are fine with taking Owen while we're gone?" Gabriella asked.
"Ugh we're fine. Don't worry. Owen is such a cutie pie." Sharpay said smiling.
"GABI, I can't do it, it feels weird holding your milk!" Troy yelled as he came into the room. Owen had his arms held out waiting for his bottle.
"Dum butt give him here." Gabriella said as Try bent down and handed Owen and the milk to him. Gabriella got him in a comfortable position and fed him the bottle. Troy went off since he couldn't look at the dresses at all.
After three hours they ahd everything done.
"Ok so tomorrow we'll get the dresses fitted, and then on Friday we'll look at hair designs and the cakes. Oh and we have to book the church and Troy and the others need to have fittings too." Sharpay said as she left.
Gabriella turned around to see Troy smiling. Gabriella raised her eyebrow as she held her sleeping son. "Nearly two months left." Troy whispered.
"Less than two months." Gabriella corrected him.
"Yeah, yeah." Troy said kissing her.
"I would love to continue this." Gabriella broke away. "But Owen wants his crib." Gabriella said walking away.
End of Flash back
Troy wiped the tears off of his cheeks and looked around. What did he even do to pass the time when Gabriella's last kidnapping was? Oh yeah he drank, but he couldn't do that. He didn't know if his stomach could handle alcohol. He was mentally kicking himself now for having all those small fights with Gabriella. He looked at the blinking number on the answering machine. He pressed play listening to the messages.

Message seven; OK that's it, I'm getting mad he-.
Troy hit the snooze button. All the voices were stuck in his head form last night. He didn't even call them to tell them what was happening. He didn't want to. He didn't want the pity, he wanted his family back. He sat up on the couch and picked up the phone. He had to tell someone in Gabi's family. He dialed the familiar number. "Hello, you've reached the Baylor's, but as you can see we're not here at the moment. Please leave your name and number and we'll get back to you."
"Sharpay its Troy. Well I have thrilling news…again. Owen and Gabriella…their missing. Nothing is ever boring in the family, huh. Well Uh I was wondering if you could tell everyone else. I just don't feel like talking…thanks, bye."
Troy pressed end on the phone, but once he did it started ringing again. He was hoping it was Mark about to tell him it was a dream. "Hello?"
"Hi, this is Dr. Straus is Gabriella Bolton around?" Dr. Straus said into the phone.
"Oh hey Dr. Straus. No she's not around, but I can take a message." Troy said into the phone.
"Well tell Gabriella she'll need to make an appointment since she's having twins and is now entering her second trimester. Okay?" Dr. Straus said.
"Ok, bye." Troy said pressing the end button. But then it dawned him…second trimester for when they were four months along. Gabriella was pregnant with twins…that's what she wanted to tell him that night.
