"Mom, I'm home! Tori, Brian start eating right now. Then I want you to meet someone, again," I yelled coming in through the garage. Troy took off his hat and sunglasses and Tori screamed. She was up and out of her chair before I could close the door.

"Come on Tori, get off. If you get off then I'll make brownies." I tried to bribe her but it didn't work. At the mention of rownies Brian got up and started to help me with prying her off. "Cookies and brownies." She let go and went back to the table and started to eat.

"Okay! Tonight," she asked while she was eating. "Why is he here?" I laughed.

"Not tonight tomorrow and he is here because he wanted to come and meet you guys. Do you know where mom is?" I asked hoping that they would play along.

"In her room waiting for you to come home and get us to eat." We both laughed.

"I'll be right back. Help yourself to anything we have, which is a lot." I walked into my mom's bedroom and found her laying down. "Mommy?" She groaned. "My boyfriends here and Tori and Brian are eating. Just so you know, he doesn't know about Tori being you know what." I sat down next to her.

"Are you going to tell him? If you think this is going to last then you should tell him."

"I know. I think I will tell him. Just not now, not here." She nodded and wlaked out the door. I followed her. I was looking at the floor so I didn't notice her stop right in front of her, we fell.

"Gabriella, why is a famous actor sitting with Tori and Brian." I laughed as I walked over to Troy. He wasn't looking very happy at the moment.

"Mom, this is my boyfriend, Troy. Troy this is my mom"

"Nice to met you Troy, please take care of my little girl." I groaned.

"You too. Gabriella, can we talk for a minute? In private." I nodded and led him into the guest bedroom and sat on the bed. He stood on the opposite side of the room.

"What's wrong," I asked worried. He was acting strange ever since I left him alone with Tori and Brian. He looked up at me, his blue eyes not showing any sign of emotion.

"Why did Brian and Tori just tell me that you are Tori's mother and Brian is her uncle?" My jaw dropped and my eyes went wide as he said this. It was one of my deepest secrets that I never like going back to. I groaned.

"Why would she do that, I know she's only three but she has never done this before." I stopped and looked at Troy. "You want an explanation?" He nodded and sat down next to me. "You have to promise not to tell anyone about this, nobody knows except for Taylor and my mom." He nodded. "You also have to promise not to hurt me, ever." The tears were already forming in my eyes.

"Of course, I would never hurt you." I took a deep breath and started.

"When I was fourteen I was at the mall, taken and raped. The next morning we went to the doctors and found out that I was pregnant then we went to the police. They couldn't find him but a 17 year old guy was arresterd for drinking and driving. It was the same guy, he was drunk and I knew it when it happened. He went t jail for I think four years, could be wrong. All of my friends were there for me but I had to deal with some stuff." I took a deep breath and looked at him.

"Please tell me that it is all there is." He looked at me and I shook my head, he nodded for me to go on.

"On the day that I went into labor my dad was about three hours away, he rushed to get there but on his way, a drunk driver ran a red light and he died. He never got to see her. We moved here because my mom thought that too much had happened up there. From then on in public Tori was my sister." Tears were rolling down my face as I stopped amd looked at him. He had tears in his eyes too.

"Is that true," he asked. I just nodded, hew put his arm around me and started comforting me. "I'm glad that you told me. I will never hurt you." I nodded again and wiped away the last of my tears.

"Promise?"

"Promise."

"Thank you, it feels good to have someone else that knows. Now all I have to do is go and talk to Tori and explain to my mom why you know and we have only been dating for less than a day." We both laughed and walked back out. My mom was back in her room and Tori and Brian were watching TV in the living room.

"Tori can we talk to you?" Troy asked her.

"Can't you do it in front of Brian?" I sighed and nodded. We sat down in front of them on the coffee table.

"Troy knows that you are my daughter but you can not tell anyone else. No matter what, unless I tell you that it is okay and I am with you. Clear?"

"Yes mommy. I love you. Is Troysie going to stay with us tonight, like Jason did?" I laughed at the first part, she came up and hugged my legs, I pulled her up on my lap.

"I'm not sure but I do know that it is your birthday in a couple of months, what do you want?" Her face lit up when I said birthday. Troy chuckled.

"I want Troysie to be my daddy! And I want a pony! And a new everything!" I stoped listening after she said that she wanted Troy to be her dad. I looked over at him, he was smiling and looking at me.

"Looks like you have been accepted, she has never said that about anyone. Pretty good for day one." I raised my eyebrows at him, waiting for his reply.

"Really, and what do you think about her comment," He asked giving he a kiss. It deepened until Tori and Brian started giggling.

"Mommy, that's gross!" We both pulled back and laughed. "Mommy, you never gave me answer to my question," Tori noticed. She was always very good with words.

"What question honey. I forget, remind me," I said hugging her.

"What's the magic word?" We all laughed.

"Please."

"Is Troysie going to stay tonight, like Jason? Why isn't Jason here?" I looked at her and debated on what to tell her about everything she just asked.

"It depends on weather or not Troy wants to stay, he can if he wants to and Jason and mommy had a little fight. He hurt mommy very much but don't worry. So Troy do you want to stay?" We all looked at him.

"Sure as long as it's okay with your mom, Gabriella." He looked at me. I nodded. My mom was always pretty cool about me having people over.

"Yay! Are you going to be my daddy," she asked again. Brian went back to watching TV.

"um," Troy said looking at me. I shrugged not knowing what to say.

"Hon, why don't you go and play with Bunny while I talk to Troy." She nodded and got up. Bunny is our dog, Brian named him that for some reason but we didn't say anything. Before she left she turned around.

"I want an answer later." We both just nodded our heads. Once she was gone I turned to Troy.

I know this is a really weird place to leave it and I'm sorry but please please review. I have to admit I was kind of disappointed. And I'm sorry for not updating sooner. I'm at my grndparents and they don't have internet so I have to hack. Please review!
