Little Wonders

Chapter 9: I Want To Find Her

Fast Forward

A few months later...

Let's say it's...December and it's Christmas break. Gabriella and Troy had gotten back together and their parents were thrilled. Everything that happened 4 years ago, is basically in the past.

Gabriella helps Troy baby-sit his new sister and his excited. But Gabriella also feels like she's seen Molly before. It's just so weird to her, but she just can't stop thinking about it. Gabriella put that aside and just played with Molly.

Currently, Troy and Gabriella were doing homework, while babysitting Molly, who was in her new room and was playing barbies. Troy looked over to his left and smiled at the girl reading her text book and then answering the work sheet. Troy still thought after she left, how much he loved her and wanted to know how everything is with her. When Gabriella came back she told Troy about what happen after she left and what went on and how she lost contact with him and that she was deeply sorry and that she never wanted to leave Troy ever again, Troy agreed also.

Little feet were heard running the upstair's floor and knocking came upon Troy's door. Gabriella giggled, and Troy grinned.

"Come in shortie," Troy called to Molly, using his nickname for her. Not a second later, Molly came running in holding her little baby that Troy and Gabriella bought her for being a good girl, why being babysat.

"Can we go to the park!?" Molly asked jumping up and down in her spot on the floor next to Troy's bed. Troy and Gabriella laughed at her eagerness.

"Molls, we have homework," Troy said.

"Troy we also have a whole 2 weeks before going back to school, We're on Christmas Break," Gabriella reminded him.

"See! Gabi says it is ok!" Molly shouted happily. Troy smiled at his two favorite girls and gave in.

"Fine, Molly go get your jacket on and put your shoes on," Troy said being the responsible adult he was. Gabriella giggled and grabbed one of Troy's hoodie, which was huge on her pettie body. Troy grinned at her in his clothes and then put his own hoodie on and grabbed his car keys off his desk. Gabriella and Troy linked their hands together and went towards Molly's room and saw her having trouble with her shoes, she already had her hoodie and jacket on. Gabriella dropped Troy's hand and went and helped Molly tie her converse shoes. Troy stood back and leaned against the door frame and looked at Gabriella helping his sister, and smiled. He knew she would of been a great mother. He quickly took those thought out of his mind, not wanting to be reminded with wanting his little girl.

"Earth to Troy! Come on," Gabriella said pulling Troy out of his stance and down the stairs and to his Range Rover. Gabriella buckled Molly in her car seat and then got into the passenger side and put her seat belt on, as Troy did the same on the drivers side. Finally after 10 minutes of driving, Troy turned the car off and got out and helped Molly out this time. Molly held Troy's hand as Gabriella got out, once Gabriella was out Molly held her other hand out for Gabriella to take. Gabriella smiled and tooked it and they started walking towards the play ground.

"I want to go on the slide!" Molly exclaimed, seeing their were tons of little kids already there, maybe about 12.

"Ok, me and Gabi will be on the end to catch you, ok?" Troy said and Molly smiled and ran for the slide. Troy and Gabriella intertwined their fingers together and went to the bottom of the slide and waited for Molly.

"Here I come, Troy!" Molly shouted and Troy smiled. Molly sat down and started down the slide and Troy caught her as she giggled. Unknown to their eyes, people watched them and noticed how cute of their little 'family' was. After awhile of playing, Troy and Gabriella sat on the bench and gave Molly some water.

"You having fun, sweetie?" Gabriella cooed.

"Yes! It's fun," Molly said shaking her head up and down, which made Troy chuckled and Gabriella smile. Molly ran off and started playing with the other kids. Troy and Gabriella started talking about their project for school, and didn't notice an elderly woman about 50 maybe 60 sit beside them. Molly came back and got another drink of her water and then gave it back to Gabriella.

"Molly, be careful," Troy said. Molly nodded and ran back. The woman beside them smiled and spoke.

"Is she your daughter?"an elderly woman asked, making Troy and Gabriella attention to turn to her.

"No." They said in unison, quickly.

"She's like a mini version of you two."the woman said.

"No, she's my little sister."Troy responded, not wanting to have this brought up.

"Well, she's adorable," the woman said.

"Thank you," Troy said with a smiled

"How old is she?" she asked.

"Three years old," (a/n: if you guys read my author note, remember I changed it because i hade to make the time setting right), Troy and Gabriella said in unison, and blushed. The woman smiled at them and looked at Molly.

"Well, once again adorable," Troy smiled and nodded feeling awkard about the converstation. After an hour at the park, Troy and Gabriella got Molly and went back to Troy's and sat in the living room. Knowing their parents were out of town together for the weekend and let them babysit, They snuggled together on the couch, while watching Cinderella for the thousandth time, knowing it was Molly's favorite movie.

"Troy says your his Cinderella," Molly said, who was sitting next to Gabriella as the movie was paused and Troy went to get popcorn.

"Is that so?" Gabriella said raising an eyebrow.

"Mhmm! he's love you like prince charming," Molly said, making Gabriella laugh.

"You sure are smart for a 3 year old," Gabriella said.

"I'll be 4 soon!" Molly said smiling.

"Really? Well what kind of birthday do you want?"

"Princess'!" Gabriella laughed at her eagerness and then thought of her own daughter, growing up without her biological parents. Gabriella sighed and looked at Molly. Gabriella just couldn't get the thought that Molly looked so familiar, the blue eyes...it was so unreal. She then decided one thing that she wanted to do. She saw Troy coming back and sat down passing the popcorn bowl to Molly and pushed play on the dvd player. After about 20 minutes of the movie, Molly was asleep in Gabriella's lap and Gabriella knew this is the moment to speak to Troy.

"Troy?" she spoke softly.

"Yea, babe?" he asked turned his eyes from the tv to meet her brown eyes.

"I want to find her," she spoke.

"Fine who?" Troy asked confused.

"Our daughter."
