(Troy's POV)
I was getting really annoyed with Chad. First of all he had me in the women's department Bloomingdale's, and second he was accusing me of loving Ella. Which totally untrue. Ok it was a little untrue at all. Fine it is totally untrue, I was, am in love with her, and I cant help it. I was thinking that Chad was right, she wasn't going wait forever. I was deep in thought when I felt someone push passed me. The girl had brown hair and from behind her looked like Ella. She had ran passed and looked as if she had been crying. I didn't think much of it and went back to thinking of ways that I could hate Chad more. Walking back to Chad's car he said he was sorry.
"Don't worry about it dude." I said as I got in his car. The ride home was silent except for the lame music he played in his car. "Are you going to be there tomorrow?" I asked his as we pulled onto my street.
"Yea, I will be there." He said. "Well I will see you tomorrow." He said as I stepped out of the car. I walked in the house and it looked empty.
"Mom, Dad." I called into the darkness. "Ella." But there was no answer. I walked into the kitchen and saw a note that my parents left saying that they would be home around 8:30. I looked at the clock and it was only 3:45. I walked up to my room and turned on my laptop. I sat on the floor with the computer on my lap. I leaned my head on my bed and closed my eyes, and that was when I heard it.
(Gabriella's POV)
I didn't know why I was running. What was I running from? What was I running to? I had no idea where we had parked so I just walked around the outside of the mall. I saw lights pull up behind me and I reached for my pepper spray. The car honked and I spun around. Taylor stepped out of the car and waked up to me, she put her arms around me and I started to cry, but I didn't know why. I hated when that happened, but for some reason, that started to happen a lot. I would look at something and burse into tears, the thing could have been happy and I still would have cried. After about two minutes of crying for no reason I got in Tay's car.
"He didn't mean it, Gab." She said softly into the dark car.
"Then why did he say." I said a little bitter.
"Guys don't about their feelings like girls do. That is why we last longer." She said with a chuckle. I knew she was trying to make me laugh but I just couldn't. I leaned my head on the window and closed my eyes. "The only thing they ever do is give each other high fives, grab each other asses, and grab each others balls." She said.
"Yea, well..." Was all I could say. We didn't talk much on the way home. "Are you mad at me?" I said looking straight at her for the first time.
"No, Gabi I'm not," She said pulling into the driveway. "I just wish that you would tell him, it is not an easy thing to bear." She said turning the car off so only the soft music played in the back ground. "Loving someone so much and not telling anybody, its not healthy." She said.
"Yea, well..." I said for the second time that night. "He already made his decision." I said getting out of the car. "You are coming tomorrow, right?" I said not wanting to be alone.
"Of course I will be there." She said with a small smile. "I will be hear in the morning to pick you up, ok?" I nodded at her and shut the door. I walked to the porch the turned to wave goodbye. She hooked back at me and walked into the house. I saw a note on the kitchen table for Troy and I that said Mr. and Mrs. Bolton would be out until 8:30. I knew Troy wasn't home, so I walked to my bedroom before he got home. I turned on my computer and signed on to AOL Instant Messenger. Nobody was on so I just left the computer on my desk and lay on my bed. I sat there for a good hour before I started to think about tomorrow. I thought about being there without Troy to comfort me. I thought about Troy not loving me the way I loved him. And I thought about my parents, the parents who loved me and gave me everything. The people I would pay them back for their love by burying them into the ground. All these things flashed through my head and I started to cry. I did not realize it at first, but them my whole body started to shake with my sobs. I heard my computer 'ding', so I sat up slowly trying to slow my tears. I walked over and saw that someone had sent me and IM. The screen said
'basketball14' has sent and IM to 'shadowed53'
'Ella?' was all it said, then there was another 'ding' 'Are you there?' I waited a moment wondering what to do. My finger went slowly to the keypad and I signed off. I walked to my bed and laid down once more, not wanting to get up until the next morning.
(Troy's POV)
I heard Ella crying from her bedroom. I went to get up, but saw that she was on AOL. I double clicked her screen name, when the screen popped up, I typed 'Ella?' and I waited. I heard the bed in her room squeak as she got up. I wait another minute. 'Are you there?' I typed. I wait yet again when another screen popped up and I heard the door close.
'shadowed53' has signed off.
I felt hurt. I heard her fall back onto her bed and then she started crying again. She was upset I could see that but why didn't she want to talk to me? Was she mad at me? I got off the floor and set my computer on the bed and walked to the next room. I knocked softly but there was no answer.
"Ella? I know you are in there." I said to the closed door and I heard her sniffle. "Come on Ella talk to me." I said in a pleading voice. "Did I do something wrong?" I asked thinking about today. I hadn't seen her since morning and she was talking to me then. My hand went to the door and I held my breath as I slowly turned the handle. The door was locked. I dropped my hand and walked back to my room. I lay on my bed and listened. The only sound I heard was the muffled sound off Ella crying, and it made my stomach hurt.

(Gabriella's POV)
I woke up this morning, with the memories of yesterday and thought of today came to my head. I looked at the clock and saw that it was 5:45. I knew that if I lay back down that I would not be able to sleep so I slowly walked to my bathroom that attached mine and Troy's room. I walked in and locked both doors. I turned the water on and let it get warm. I kicked off the clothes that I had been wearing since yesterday, and stepped it. The water felt good as it ran down my back. I stood in the shower for a good 15 minutes when I realized I was not the only one that needed to take a shower. I reluctantly shut off the shower and stepped out. I looked at myself in the mirror and heard a knock at the door on my left.
"Ella?" I heard Troy say.
"What Troy?" I said a little bitter.
"What are you doing up so early?" He asked me.
"Couldn't sleep." I said simply.
"Do you want to talk about it?" He asked me.
"Not with you." I said and walked back to the room that was now mine.
(Troy's POV)
"Not with you." She had said through the bathroom door. I heard her slam the door and lock it so I could not talk to her. I stumbled back like her words had hit me hard in the stomach. I sat on my bed wondering what I did to make her so mad at me. I could think, I was to upset. I got in the shower and tried to think clearly. I got out and had see that my mom had been up and laid my suit on my bed. I walked down to the kitchen and saw my parents there at the island talking quietly among them self's. I knew they were talking about me because when they saw me the both shut up real fast.
"Where's Ella?" I asked noticing she was not there.
"Um...Taylor came and picked her up, she is going to bring Gabi to the funeral." My mother said.
"Oh." Was all I could say. I sat down next to my mom and she handed me a bowl of Frosted Flakes. They were my favorites. I looked at my mom and gave her a small smile in thanks. She put her hand on my shoulder and looked at me like she was sorry and disappointed at the same time. I couldn't put my finger on it but I knew something was up. I looked at my dad and he just shook his head. This couldn't be happening, first Ella, then mom, and now dad. I must have done something really bad, the worst part was I couldn't think of anything. I pushed the bowl away and got up. "Call me when it's time to leave." I mumbled walking up the stairs to my room.
(Mrs. Bolton's POV)
I watched my son walk up the stairs sad.
"Jack, did you have to shack your head?" I asked him annoyed.
"What, he needed the head shack." He said looking at me. I walked over and kissed him.
"What he needed was his dad to tell him it will be ok." I said putting my hand on his shoulder.
"You told me not to lie to the boy hun. He screwed up big time, and I don't know it will be ok, and I am not going to lie to him like that." He said with a chuckle. I slapped the back of his head but agreed with him.
"He did screw up pretty bad didn't he. Why do all guys have to be so pigheaded when it comed to your feelings." I said to my husband think about this morning.
(Flashback, still Mrs. Bolton POV)
I walked up the stairs and heard someone in the shower. I looked in on Troy and found that it was him in the shower. I laid his suit on his bed and walked out. I walked to the next door and knocked softly.
"Gabi, are you awake?" I asked her through the door. She came and opened the door and she was all ready to leave. I looked in her eyes and saw that she had been crying.
"Yea, I am awake Mrs. Bolton." She said at the door.
"Are you going to be ok?" I asked her softly.
"I hope so." She said and pushed the door open. "Mrs. Bolton can I talk to you?" She asked me. I walked in her room and shut the door behind me. I walked over and sat in front of her on the bed.
"What can I do for you?" I asked.
"Well..." She started. "For starters could you please not tell Troy we are having this conversation." She said pleading.
"I promise, so what has you troubled?"
"Well, I like this guy and I over heard him talking to his best friend." She said putting emphasis on the word best. "Well his friend asked why he wouldn't tell me he liked me, and he said that we were just friends and that he didn't like me that way." She said and I could see that she was about ready to cry. "And well I was with Taylor and she heard to, she said that he just didn't want to tell his friends because guys don't talk about their feelings." She said looking about at her hands.
"Well that Taylor sure is smart. Guys really don't talk about this sort of thing. Even it is their best friend that they have known since kindergarten." I put my hand under her chin and lifted her face to look at me. "Gabi listen, Troy loved you. He just won't admit. I know he as taken a lot of time, but just wait a little longer, he is bond to crack, he can't stand when you don't talk to him." I said and Gabriella's eyes widened.
"How do you...?" Was all she could get out. She was surprised that I knew it was my son.
"Gabi, I see you and my son all the time. The two of you hate to be away from each other. And when you are away from one another, you are talking on the phone, or he is talking about the next time you two will see each other. I can see it in your eyes when you look at one another. Actually," I said with a chuckle. "I think that everyone can see it. They way you two are when you are together and the way you are when you are apart. One of you just needs to step up." I said kissing her forehead and walking out of the room. Half an hour later Gabriella walked down and told Jack and I that she would be riding with Taylor and that she was going wait out on the front porch for her. I watched Gabi walk out and get in Taylor's car. I turned around and saw that Troy had come down all dressed and the first things out of his mouth,
"Where's Ella?" The boy was hooked, he just couldn't admit it.

I want to thank everyone for reading. Please review and tell me what you think. I type a lot faster after I read all of your reviews. It makes me not want to disappoint anyone by taking so long so I work really hard to get the next chapter up. Well please review and tell me what you think. Also I hope that my spelling is a little better this time, I actually used spell check. (lol).
Well incase anyone didn't catch it the part where Troy told Chad he did not love Gabriella was the something stupid that he did. I know it wasn't much but most people voted that he do something stupid. So I hope that you all liked it.
Up next: Gabriella does something stupid (as with Troy it is not much but it does lead her to tell Troy she loves him.) Also up next: Gabriella tells Troy she loved him and he may say it back.
One last thing before I go, I think that I should have the next chapter up by Thursday
