Chapter 11: A Time for Reminiscing, Celebrating and Thinking
So here it is, Sorry for the very long wait (: Took a long time for inspiration to come.
"Yo Bolton, throw the ball!" Emmett Sig one of his teammates in the football team shot him a look as they were warming up for their practice that sunny afternoon, since he was preoccupied looking at the cheerleaders walking towards the football field, probably for their practice since the big game was on Friday, he wasn't interested on all those girl flaunting their black cheerleading short shorts and their white racer back tee they wore for practice.
"Okay, I see you're very much busy" Emmett said following Troy's gaze.
"What?" Troy said looking at Gabriella who certainly caught his attention as she walked with Sharpay and Taylor talking about something, but she didn't seem to notice him.
"Bolton!" Emmett yelled, causing Troy to shift his attention from the perfectly angelic Gabriella, to Emmett the perfect line backer.
"Just throw the ball Sig!" Troy yelled looking back to Gabriella who was very much ready to do the dance routine Sharpay very much choreographed, since she was in front hollering over the girls, as she turned the music on, when Gabriella started to dance, it was like he was captured by her presence, her beautiful face and her smoking body, it was like he was floating, he imagined far much things that was appropriate, damn he had completely fallen in love with her.
But BOOM.
"OOOOOWWWW" he screamed in pain as the football hit him on his crotch.
He was in pain and everyone in the field heard his cry.
He was definitely floating.
He laid flat on the grass, his eyes opting to close, he was half conscious, he saw bodies of people walking towards his direction.
"Troy!, Are you okay?" he heard the sweet angelic voice coming over to him, her face, her eyes, her lips, her funny nose, worrying over him, the hit might have brought something good.
"Bolton, you okay?" Zeke asked helping him to stand up and so was Sig.
"What the hell, Sig" he groaned, placing his arms over to Zeke's shoulder for help.
"Sorry, Bro, you said to throw….But I see your enjoying it" Sig said looking at Troy and to Gabriella.
"Shut up Sig" he muttered.
"I'm gonna go sit down for a while" He said as Zeke helped him sit on the bench with Gabriella following him and Zeke, when the commotion was over the rest of the students went back to what they were doing, whether it was dancing or playing football.
"Okay, you sit for sec, get some air bro, you got this Gabby?" Zeke said putting back his head gear on.
"Yeah, you go play" Gabriella insisted after that Zeke then ran back to the field.
"You're welcome Bolton!" Sig said chuckling as he ran across the yards.
"Can I get you anything, you look pale" Gabriella said very much worried kneeling down on the grass looking at Troy.
"Just a little short lived pain, I'm getting there" he chuckled looking into her eyes.
"You seem to be following me Montez huh?" Troy said raising his eyebrows.
"As if, but Sharpay is following Zeke" she replied.
"You better get back to practice, or Sharpay will holler at me for the whole trip tomorrow.
"Ahh, she won't, tomorrow's Spring Break, she'll forget all about this incident" she smiled now sitting next to Troy on the bleacher on a Indian sit stance.
"Maybe you should stop football" she suggested.
"Oh Come on Gabby, Basketball season's over, I have nothing else to do, Chad is over at Baseball, Zeke's in football, I have to man up and do something too" he said.
"Your man enough for me" she smiled.
"Yes, I am" he said leaning in and pecking her lips.
"Oh Come on, got get a room" Sharpay screamed from her position.
"I better go" she said standing up, but Troy hands pulled her arms and pulled her back to him, her standing in between his legs, and his hands roaming down her waist.
"I can't wait for this weekend" he said leaning in closer and pulling her lower to his face.
"Well, now that you've mentioned it…" Gabriella started as she placed her arms around Troy's neck.
She leaned in, brushing her lips to his, both of them smiling in the process, as their lips found each other, Gabriella staring into his perfectly admiring blue eyes, deepening the kiss, playing with his hair on his nape, but he pulled away, but his eyes not leaving hers.
"Are you sure, you're ready?, I mean, we could wait till Prom if you want-" he started but he was cut off by Gabriella's lips reconnecting back to his.
"What to I have to do, to prove to you, that I am ready" she said kissing his lips and his jaw and his nose but her eyes still in place with his.
"I guess-" he was cut off but not by Gabriella's voice but the Barbie Doll's.
"Can't you two wait for Spring Break, or your hormones just can't handle it" Sharpay said walking over to them, making them move apart.
"If you'll excuse me Bolton, I need to get Gabby on top" Sharpay said pointing at the pyramid.
"Yeah, Gabby is great when she's on top" Troy said winking at Gabriella.
"Oh Gawd, can't you two stop for a sec, you have the whole Spring Break to be all moosshhy!" Sharpay exclaimed pulling Gabriella's arm.
"Shake your thing Baby" Troy yelled as he ran back to his own practice, pushing Sharpay's buttons even more.
GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG
"What about that kiss?, it was a kiss that should be forgotten" Gabriella said ignoring Troy's piercing eyes, instead staring down the papers in her hands.
"You kissed back" he stated still seated on his chair, admiring her, her hair wasn't tied up today her natural dark curls were flowing, she was wearing pencil skirt that still showed her toned tan legs, and a blue silk blouse that was tuck in her skirt, knowing from her taste everything she was wearing was designer, even her blue Jimmy Choo pumps.
"Bolton, may I remind you that the election is next week, and you want to talk about a kiss that meant nothing" Gabriella stated.
"It was not nothing, you certainly know that it was nothing" he said.
"Okay, Troy, I was tired and a little bit tipsy because of the wine, there are you happy?" she said rasing her head but avoiding his gaze.
"Fine, keep denying the truth" he said.
"So, can we talk about your ratings" she asked.
"Geez, what made you uptight and all work?" he asked.
"As far as I know, being focused on your work is a good thing" she replied still reading the papers on the folder.
"Right, Anyways, I'm taking Penn for a walk, I need the air" he said loosening his blue tie and placing his hands on his pockets.
"Wanna come?" he offered.
"Nope, Work" She stated not taking off her eyes on the paper, right on time, Landon came in the room.
"Where are you going?" he asked Troy who ignored him as he walked out of his own office.
"Leave him alone, he thinks better when he's out walking, clears his head" Gabriella said.
"Really? I didn't know that, should have hired you a along time ago Gabby" Landon said as he walked out again of the office, leaving Gabriella be.
GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG
"Come on Penn" he said as him and Penn, were entering the vicinity of Central Park.
He was preoccupied by the thought of the elections for the coming week, he needed time for himself, he need the time to think about everything that was going on in his life. On top of that long list was the kiss that he shared with Gabriella, he's life was turning around, because of her he learned to balance out his life once again.
"PEENNNNNNN!" a little boy screamed, from behind, he noticed the voice and he knew that his long quiet time for thinking to himself was completely over. Penn immediately ran from behind and stopped to lick the little boy's face, since he adored him and so did he, the little boy started to pet Penn uncontrollably, which made Troy very much smile.
"Uncle Troy!" now the voice of a little girl filled his ears making his smile a little bit wider, as the little girl hugged him from behind.
"There's the little angel" he said turning around and kneeling down to her height, she was adorable as a button, wearing her school uniform and her dark curls that her mother had but she had slightly lighter hair color was in a cute pigtail.
"What are you two doing here?" he asked.
"Helena took us for a walk after school" Lily answered brightly, looking over to his brother who was still all over the Labrador.
"Penny" Lily said walking over to pat Penn as well.
He smiled and took his phone from his pocket, and dialed a number he memorized by heart, went straight to voicemail.
"I have your children with me, and I'm taking them for a snack" he stated admiring the scene before him.
Since he met the twins, he was immediately attached to them, in a matter he can't explain, instantly whenever he saw them all the ton of weight on his shoulders were completely gone.
GGGGGGGGGGGGG Two weeks later GGGGGGGGGG
"First of all I would like to thank all of you for coming, I can't be more proud of my son for his win as the new Congressman of New York, I hope the next step is the senate position, To Troy" Richard Forrester made a toast standing all proud and clean at the center table of ballroom of the Plaza Hotel, after his speech the whole room had a round of applause and he went over to Troy giving him a fatherly embrace and proceeding back to the festivities.
Troy was happy alright for winning the election, now named as the youngest Congressman to ever be in the state of New York City, he was congratulated by everyone in the enormous room but his blue eyes were just looking for one person in particular.
"You okay Boss?" Landon asked as Troy walked back and forth from table to table.
"Yeah, have you seen Gabby?" Troy asked.
"Ofcourse, Gabby, Nope, haven't see her but, Mayor Bloomberg is looking to congratulating you" Landon said.
"Uhm, maybe later" he said walking away and heading for his best friends all cooped up in one table.
"Ah, there he is, Congratulations, Congressman" Chad said and all of them chimed in.
"Yeah, thanks guys, have you seen Gabby?" Troy asked.
"Of course he's looking for Gabby" Zeke said.
"Gabriella, it's been a long time" he heard like ten feet away that angelic name was mentioned by an all too familiar voice, his mother.
He immediately excused himself from his friends and headed to their direction where he can see his mother admiring Gabriella, she couldn't blame her, she was wearing a blue night dress that showed her perfect olive skin and her black curls cascading on her back, her red lips that made him hunger for more and her curves were perfectly hugged by the dress.
"Gabby" now her little sister emerging and hugging her, "Stella, you are so pretty and all grown up" Gabriella said.
"There he is, Troy" Lucille as three pairs of eyes went to his direction.
"There you are Boss, sorry I'm late" she said smiling at him.
"You two did a good job on the election" she said.
"Yeah, Troy couldn't stop talking about how great you are" Stella chimed in, which made Troy blush and Gabriella smile at him.
"He's been looking for you, from the time this thing started" Stella added.
"Okay Stella, that's quite enough" Troy said gently pushing his little sister aside, making her close her little mouth.
"You still have that effect on him" Stella said once Troy's hand was away from his mouth.
"Okay, excuse, our friends are waiting" he said pulling Gabriella away.
"Over here Gabby" Sharpay waved at her.
Gabriella walked towards the table and took her seat beside Taylor and Troy.
"Why are you sitting here, go sit with your parents" Gabriella stated looking at Troy.
"I'll sit there later" he said.
"So you're late" Sharpay looked at Gabriella.
"Sorry, had to put my children to sleep" she said.
"So what are your plans for Easter?" Sharpay asked.
"Well. My Dad asked me to pick him up from the Hamptons, because he wants to see if the place I moved in is safe for his grandchildren" Gabriella replied.
"The Hamptons, too much memories over there" Chad chuckled.
"Oh Yeah, that's where Gabby and Troy first did it, and Taylor and Chad did it three times on the beach" Sharpay said.
"Oh Come on Shar, we aren't the only once who did it on our Senior Year Spring Break" Taylor replied.
"Oh yes, you four were, me and Zeke were just monitoring" Sharpay said pumping her fist with Zeke.
"We even got matching telescopes" Zeke added.
"Now you made me uncomfortable going to my father's house" Gabriella said remembering the events.
"Oh come on, besides it's not your Dad's house we did it in, it was Sharpay's mother's" Troy chuckled.
Gabriella just glared at him, shaking her head.
"So who are you leaving the twins with?" Sharpay asked cheekily raising her hand in the process eagerly wanting to be a mother for a whole day.
"No need Shar, we could take them, Chad and I have nothing to do, since Zeke's gonna be busy at the Restaurant, you can't handle them without him" Taylor countered now pumping fists with Chad, making the day care thing for Gabriella's children a small competition but intense competition.
"Yeah, it's probably a good thing, that Tay and Chad could have this one" Gabriella said.
"No! Chad has a game! We win, we take the twins" Sharpay hollered in victory.
"Like you can handle the two of them?" Taylor sniped.
"Like you can? And I COULDN'T" Sharpay answered back.
"Shar, do you know what a whole day with the twins mean, without Zeke?" Taylor stated.
"Taylor do you know what a whole day with the twins mean?" Sharpay repeated.
"Yes, I sure can handle that!" Taylor exclaimed.
"Well, I can too" Sharpay said.
"Gabby, if you leave your children with her they will have scars and bruises when you get back"
"No they won't!" Sharpay almost growled causing the two tables beside them look at their direction.
"Okay, stop it" Gabriella snapped.
"I'll take them" a voice offered, the five of them looking at Troy.
"What?" he said.
"You don't have a nanny with you" Gabriella stated.
"I could handle it" Troy said confidently.
"Let him do it" Zeke said.
"What?" Taylor and Sharpay both shrieked in unison.
"You are gonna leave the children to him?" Sharpay reacted so dramatically once again pointing at Troy.
"Yeah, Let him do it" Chad insisted making eye contact with Gabriella which Troy can't seem to understand.
"I think you should" Taylor agreed.
"Yeah, give the guy a credit, he can run the State of New York, I think he can handle twins" Zeke added.
"Have you all gone nuts" Sharpay said rhetorically.
"Shar, he is-" Zeke soothed his wife.
"I don't care if he is-" Sharpay muttered at Zeke.
"Drop it Pay" Zeke commanded with a stern voice making Sharpay calm down.
"Okay, Fine, Bolton you have my kids for a day" Gabriella stated finalizing the deal.
"If you'll excuse me I'm gonna find myself a strong drink" Gabriella said standing up and heading to the bar.
"If you'll excuse me, I'll have to go entertain my father" Troy said smirking headed to his mother.
"So what was all the commotion over there" Lucille asked.
"Ah, we were just debating, who would Gabby's kids stay for a day and I won" Troy smiled sitting down beside his mother as his father and sister were talking about a political issue that both of them disagree on.
Lucille was still, very still, she was just looking at his son.
"Mom" Troy chuckled.
"You think I couldn't handle them too" Troy snickered.
"Troy, would you please bring them around the penthouse when you're with them" Lucille said holding the palm of his son's hand.
"Yeah, okay Mom" he agreed curiously.
GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG
