Falling for my bestfriend's brother
The house was very silent...maybe to silent for Gabriella's liking, she looked over at her sleeping bestfriend, she really couldnt believe someone saw them, someone knew they were together, when Michael and Nath were always so careful about their relationship, they managed to be undercover wherever they went out and even then they got caught? Impossible. She began to worry...if they saw Nath and Michael it was almost impossible for them not to see her with Troy, they were more open with their relationship, they kept kissing and cuddling in public, it was just matter of time for her to receive a text too. Gabriella took a deep breath, it wasnt time to panic or freak out, she needed to stay calm and analyse the situation to help her bestfriend, maybe if their parents knew by them and not by anybody else the punishment wouldnt be too hard or maybe it could get worse, because they were doing it behind their back. Gabriella sat on her bed with her head in her hands...it was just so complicated.
Gabriella got out of bed, there was no use on thinking too much about it, she just had to wait and see what happens, she put her slippers on and took a look over at Nathalie, maybe a nice breakfast would cheer her up after crying so much last night...she would make some pancakes, that always got Nath on a good mood. She walked downstairs and into the kitchen, she got everything she needed to start cooking. The house was very silent except for the noise she made, that silence was scary, she didnt like to be all alone in that huge house. She knew her parents were gonna go out with Nath parents for the day, and maybe Troy was still asleep. She placed the food on plates, her eyes scanned the room looking for a big Tray to carry everything back to the room, when she finally found one she took everything back upstairs. She slowly opened the door to find Nath still asleep in the same position she left her, before waking her up she took a glass of orange juice and walked out of the room, maybe that would be a good excuse to wake up Troy so she wouldnt feel so alone.
She knocked a couple of times on his door with no answer. Her eyebrows turned into a frown as she kept knocking and there was no answer, she opened the door, surprised that it wasnt locked, he normally locked it whenever he was asleep (no she wasnt spying on him) she took a short look inside his room, once she confirmed he wasnt around she closed the door and headed to the studio, maybe he was working like he always was, once again she knocked on the door to receive no answer, what was going on? did everyone got together to make a plan against her and leave her all alone? She opened the door and scanned the room to see he wasnt there either. She would have to call him. Gabriella ran up the stairs to get her phone, she was surprised when she walked into the room and saw her bestfriend sitting on her bed eating breakfast.
"you're awake" Gabriella said as Nathalie ate evrything on her plate without once looking up. Gabriella sighed as she grabbed her purse to look for her cell, once she found it, the number came as fast as her fingers could type it. She put the phone to her ear and listened as she grabbed her own plate and started eating her own breakfast, she was hungry which was something she didnt notice before.
Riiiiiiing
Riiiiiiing
Riiiiiiiing
"hello?" A deep voice said on the other end of the line, he sounded tired and frustrated.
"hey" she said softly "how are you?" she asked.
"Gabriella?" his voice seemed more cheerful this time.
"yeah" she said shyly "i was wondering...where are you?" she asked him going straight to the point, she was starting to get worried.
"i...that's a bit complicated right now" he said to her discomfort, everything seemed to be complicated lately, but she wasnt gonna say it out loud.
"how complicated?" she didnt like the tone he was using at all.
"right now...i'm in my studio" he answer, something about his voice didnt fit.
"but i was down there and its empty" she said totally confused, she didnt know what was going on anymore.
"That's because i'm in my studio in New York...i had to come to my principal office to take care of some important business" he said, the air got stuck in her throat, she couldnt believe what she just heard.
"w-what? why didnt you say anything?" she asked him.
"i just couldnt...they called me last night while everybody was still asleep, i told my parents and left i couldnt waste any more time" he said she knew he had to be frowning because he hated to have to explain himself or his actions. She took a deep breath and considered the situation. He was a very important business man, she just couldnt take all his time, it didnt matter how much she wanted to.
"its ok i guess...when are you coming back?"
"if everything turns out to be right i'll be back home by tomorrow night" he said glad that she understood he really had to do this.
"two days without you here?" ok now she felt like she was gonna die
"i know its hard...you cant imagine how much i want to have you in my arms right now...but this is important and i had to take care of it personally...so will you please be patient for me?"
She sighed "yeah i think i can" Troy chuckled on the other end, he knew she would understand.
"that's my girl! i gotta go now, have some work to do but i promise to call you before lunch ok" he said, Gabriella heard a female's voice on the background and she couldnt help but wondering who was it.
"ok" she said.
"see you later babe" and with that he hung up the phone.
A soft sigh escaped Gabriella's lips, she really couldnt believe he was in NYC and didnt even tell her, but whatever, she had more important things to do too, she had to find a way to fix Nathalie's problem, she really hated to see her bestfriend like that, so sad, Gabriella looked for her bestfriend to find her on their balcony looking outside with the same dead expression, she had to do something.
"Nath" she said as she walked into the balcony and huged her bestfriend.
"why everything has to be so complicated?" Nathalie said in a soft whispear, Gabriella just buried her face on Nath's shoulder, she's been asking herself the same question all day long without finding any answer.
"i wish i knew"
"what would you do if you were me Gabs?" Nathalie asked her bestfriend, Gabriella looked up with confusion written all over her face, she actually never thought about it, what would she do if something like that ever happened to her? which was probably what was going to happen...She would probably tell her parents and wait to see what happens next, but she wasnt Nathalie, she was sure her Nath would never do that because she was basically scared of her parents, she always wanted to do everything right just to get what she wanted, so she couldnt see her parents disaproval, this was mostly the only bad thing she's ever done in her life.
"well girl...i would talk to my parents and tell them what is going on" Gabriella said "but that's because i have a different relationship with my parents, maybe what works for me wouldnt work for you" she said honestly, she really wanted to help her bestfriend but it was becoming a bit hard to do so. Nath looked down, processing everything her friend just told her.
"i mean..." Gabriella continued "maybe we're just overreacting, maybe we just need to calm down and let the destiny do his thing"
"i dont think that's such a good idea"
"i'll tell you what...lets go out today, our parents are having a good time and Troy is in New York we at least deserve to have some fun too...let's go shopping" Gabriella suggested.
Nathalie's eyes instantly lit up, she walked back into the room looked for some clothes and walked into the bathroom to take a shower. Gabriella laughed at this, it didnt matter how bad the storm was, Nath was always in the mood to shop, it was a good thing tho, she needed to relax a bit.
That's exactly what she needed.
Later
Gabriella couldnt walk one more step, she felt like she ran a hundred miles without stoping once, of course she's never done that so she couldnt tell if it felt that way, but that was the first thing that got to her head. Nathalie was on her good mood again, she was making jokes and laughing along like always, it was nice to see her like that again.
"can we please sit down, i think i'm gonna pass out right here" Gabriella exclaimed as she pointed to a bench near them.
"i guess we can...but we're not done shopping" Nath replied while sitting down next to her bestfriend. They both sighed at the same time.
Party Rock is in the house tonight, everybody just have a good time, and we gon' make you lose your mind, we just wanna see you...shake that!
"What the fuck?" Nath asked
"thats my ringtone" Gabriella laughed.
You want the moves like jagger...i've got the moves like jagger...i've got the mooooooooves like jagger
They both looked at eachother and started laughing.
"ok that's my ringtone and i'm proud of it!" Nathalie said as they both answered their phones at the same time.
"Hello?" Gabriella asked without looking at the ID.
"gorgeous how are you?" A known voice said on the other line.
"Troy!" she squealed
"i miss you" he said with a sigh.
"me too...guess what, Nath and i went out shopping, she feels better now" she informed him of that days news.
"that's good...she didnt look so well last night" he said
"yeah, but now we have some awesome clothes and her mood is back on tracks" she giggled.
"i cant wait to be there with you" he whispeared into the phone.
"i know...i miss you like crazy" she sighed.
"dont worry i'll be there before you know it" he said, she could sense the smirk he had to be wearing in that moment.
"i hope so..." she smiled.
"i gotta go now...but i'll call you by dinner time ok" he said
"ok, i'll be waiting"
"bye beautiful" he said
"bye"
They both hung up their phones and with a huge smile she looked at her bestfriend, hoping to share her happiness with her, instead she saw Nath was pale as a ghost and looked like she just saw one.
"Nath what's wrong?" she asked shaking her friend a little bit afraid that she might just had a heart attack.
"my mom was on the phone" Nathalie slowly whispeared.
"and..."
"she want us home...now!" Nathalie looked at Gabriella with tears in her eyes, they huged eachother, knowing what was about to happen next, and it wasnt pretty.
"no matter what i'll be there for you Nath" Gabriella said trying to support her.
And with that they both headed out of the mall...
So that's it for now guys...hope you liked it, review and tell me what you think...really i want to know everything, good or bad.
