The club was loud. Music played from speakers that surrounded the whole inside of the club, Adam leaned on the bar and spoke to the bartender, "Hey uh...one brewski and uh, one gin and tonic-and put a roofi in it would you?" The bartender nodded once, "Thanks Carmine." Adam says, turning around, seeing Gabriella walking out of the ladies room with her arms wrapped around herself. She was walking slow, so by the time she reached the bar, the drinks were done and hers was waiting.
"Hey, Gabster," Adam said, wrapping an arm around her waist and pulling her close to him. She was...so tense. "I got you a drink." "Thanks," she said, "but uhm, I don't-" "you look like you need it." he pushed it toward her. "come on, have a bit."
Gabriella sniffled, "I..I guess I could have a little bit..just a little." he smiled, "That a girl.. drink up." she smiled sadly taking a sip of her drink. Adam watched her drink up, he felt bad about doing this to her, but he needed her. his had deep feelings for her for awhile, and just needed to have her.
He knew he was wrong to be taking advantage of her for what she is going through right now, but he just.. she was naive when she became drunk.
Soon Gabriella was taking drink after drink. she got this big smirk on her face, and they were soon on the dance floor dancing sexually and Gabriella was still drinking more.
Gabriella giggled as she crashed her lips against Adam's. she smiled whispering in his ear, "Let's get out of here and go to your place.. I wanna play leap frog."
Adam smirked, however there was the part of him that felt guilty for doing this ...but he had to have her. He ...just had to. "Yeah, that sounds good." Gabriella stumbled, grabbing onto his hand, she still stumbled over her feet. One too many, but it'll be the perfect excuse in the morning. So, he was in the clear...right? As long as Troy never finds about this...right?
Adam opened the door to the front house. Gabriella attached her lips to his pushing him against the wall. she giggled as his lips were attached to her chest, and she threw her head back giggling like mad when she jumped up to wrap her legs around his waist.
He carried her upstairs into her bedroom. His mother and chloe were both asleep so they tried to stay quiet. soon clothes were ripped off each other, and the kissing became more heated. "Gabriella..." he moaned, "I've loved you for a long time... and not how I"m suppose too." she giggled running her fingers through his hair. "Adam.." she moaned as he entered her slowly.
Troy pulled up to the drive way, the rattling of his truck never sounding friendly. Sounding like it might die any day. "Gabriella...I'm sorry...I just, I know you blame you..but it's not your-no that's not it..." sighing, he pushes open the car door and steps out. The windows are dark, so he thought that they were all asleep, good, maybe he could slip under the covers and whisper in Gabriella's ear as she slept. Or just hold her. Or both.
The door was open, which was strange cause...who would sleep with their front door open. Stepping in, he looked around. Yeah they must have been asleep...but then, "What?" Troy whispered, scrunching his brow when he heard something come from Adam's room.
Slow steps, he walked up the creaky steps, the noises getting more prominant. Adam's door was cracked open, and...he was fucking some girl-wait a minute, those gasps..those...moans. Oh hell no, Adam is...Troy felt rage boil in his stomach, his fists clench. Adam is..so freaking dead.
Gabriella moaned, her fingers scratching up his back, "A-Adam.." she moaned drunkly. Adam smiled looking into her eyes, attaching his lips at the bottom of her stomach bringing it to her lips and saying, "Whatever you do, after this, don't mention it to Troy alright.. it will be our little secret."
Gabriella laughed drunkly, "Adam.." she moaned. Troy's blood boiled, the door slammed open, he cleared his throat. Adam chuckled, looking to see who caught them, he turned, his eyes went wide. he jumped off Gabriella, "Troy.." he cleared his throat, "Umm Hey.. ummm what's up best friend? what are you doing here?"
Troy didn't say anything, instead he went to Adam and picked Adam up the throat with both hands, "What the fuck are you doing?" Adam gulped, Gabriella stumbled to sit on the bed, trying to cover herself. Troy didn't notice her, he was glaring heatedly at Adam, "You fucking bastard! You are not my friend! I...I loath you! Curse to hell!"
Adam bit his lip, "Troy, look.. I"m sorry.. Just.. she lost the baby, and I've had strong feelings for her for a long time, and.. and she just needed a little fun, and she is naive when she is drunk-" Troy glared at him, "You got her drunk for your own personal need! you sick bastard! you were never a true friend to me or Gabriella!"
He pushed him on the floor, grabbing a blanket off the bed, and wrapping Gabriella in it. "Twoy.." she giggled, taking her hand and crawling it up his shirt, "Let's have a little fun in your bedroom shall we?" she giggled, wrapping her arms around his neck and attaching her lips to his neck kissing and sucking.
Troy moaned effortlessly. "Come on Brie.. I can't believe what he did to you." he lifted her up, carrying her bridal style to her bedroom.
The next morning, Gabriella woke up with a bad headache. She groaned sitting up, "oww.. my head." she looked beside her to see Troy asleep. she shook him, "Troy..wake up." he woke up rubbing his face, and looking at her, "Oh your up." he sat up with her, "Yeah.. I have the worst headache." he sighed, "Brie, you got drunk last night, and you had a little too much." she gasped, "Oh..Oh my god.. so..so you took care of me right?"
"Yeah, you could say that..." Gabriella looked at him, "what do you-" "Brie, I'd rather not talk about it all right?" why did he sound so angry? Was it something that she...? "Troy-" "Brie...just...come on." he leaned over to kiss her lips softly, "I'll take you out to breakfast...my treat. Chloe's invited too."
Gabriella bit her lip, "Okay Troy." he kissed her lips softly. she slipped out of bed but she stumbled a bit but Troy caught her. "You okay?" he asked. she nodded, "Yeah, just a little dizzy is all..umm I'm going to go get dressed and ready.. could you see if Chloe is awake?" Troy nodded, "Yeah." he walked out of the room, and knocked on Chloe's door, "Chlo?" he opened the door to find Chloe asleep under the covers. he sighed, his so happy she didn't have to witness what happened last night.
He walked over and sat on the side of the bed, stroking her baby face. "Chloe..wake up baby girl." Chloe stirred but her eyes fluttered opened, she smiled sitting up, "Daddy!" she hugged him tightly, "Me missed you." he chuckled, "I missed you too kiddo.. wanna get dressed, and me and mommy will take you to IHop for breakfast?" Chloe jumped out of bed going to her closet quickly. Troy chuckled.
Gabriella walked in, "Hey." she whispered softly. Troy looked at her, "Hey." she sighed, "Can we talk..privately?" he sighed sitting up, "Sure. I guess." he followed her out to the hallway. she turned to face him, "Tell me what happened last night?" Troy bit his lip, "Brie-" she sighed, "Just tell me Troy.." she grabbed his hands, "I Can take it."
He sighed running a hand through his hair, "Brie. you had to much to drink last night, and..and you and Adam.. well.. you two slept together...I caught you before it could go further." Gabriella's heard skipped a beat, "I..I slept with A-Adam?" she began to have tears roll down her cheeks, "I..I am such a whore.." she sniffled, "I..I cheated on you..oh...ooh my god." she scratched the bag of her head, sniffling, and began pacing side to side,
"Oh my god.. I am so stupid." she sniffled, "I..I'm sorry Troy.. I had no clue what happened last night..I swear to you..I.." she sighed, at the look on his face, he looked angry, and betrayed and hurt. "Brie.." she sniffled, "Look.. I.. I'm sorry I cheated.. If.. If you wanna break up, I understand."
Troy looked at her, they looked at each other for a few moments. Troy bit his tongue, "Brie.. I really don't know how I'm feeling about you or this whole situation." Gabriella sighed, looking at the ground, then back at him, "Then you don't have to feel anything."
He looked at her, she grabbed his hands, bringing them to his chest, "Listen, I cheated, and I have to live with that for the rest of my life, We need to break up, and go our seperate ways, cause I can't live with the fact of being with you after I hurt you.. I"ll go back to New Jersey, and you do what you want.." she slipped off her necklace he gave her, "Here." she clipped it off and putting it in his palm, "Give that to someone you love...I promise you, there's someone out there for you that don't have problems like me."
"Brie that's-" she shook her head, "Troy...don't...you're going to only make it hard-" Chloe came running out of her room with a pink cami and a brown knee length skirt and pink sparkly sandles that were on the wrong feet. "IHOP! IHOP! IHOP! IHOP!" she sang loudly, "Daddy's taking me to IHOP!" Troy looked at her then at Gabriella, "you're just going to take Chloe and run? Like you do with all your problems?" "Troy-" "instead of facing them you run from them...expecting to disappear?" "Troy-" "Pouting at how life is unfair and how you've been stomped for the whole of your life?" "Troy-" "LIfe isn't fair Gabriella! It isn't! Do you know...do you know that for most my life...most of my life I went thinking that I was the one responsible for my mother's death, YOU convinced me I wasn't...but I guess what you said are just words-"
"Troy.." "and when you said you 'loved me', what about then Gabriella? Did you mean that? Or lie to my face? Do you even know what love is?" Slap! Troy's head snapped to the side, his cheek stinging hard where she had slapped him; surely that would leave a bruise. Her chest was heaving and her eyes were moist. Chloe was silenced and looking between the two of them. Troy bit his inner cheek, sucking in a breath and looking at Gabriella slowly, "Maybe you should go back...cause running seems to be what your best at."
Gabriella looked at him, holding Chloe's hand, "Chloe go into you bedroom, I'll be in there in a minute." Chloe nodded listening to her mother and running into her bedroom. Gabriella had tears in her eyes already. she wiped them away with the palm of her hand. "Maybe I shouldn't of come here at all." he looked at her, she sniffled, "I didn't lie when I said I loved you.. I'm inlove with you Troy.. always was, alwyas will be.."
Troy looked at her, "I'm inlove with you too." she sniffled, "But like you said, running away is something I'm good at.. why should I stop?" Troy just looked at her, she sighed, "I know coming here was a huge mistake, and I've thought many of times of going back with chloe, but one thing was stopping me.. that something was you.." she sniffled, tears rolling down her cheeks.
He cupped her cheek, "Brie.. If you don't face your fears or problems, your going to be trapped.. then no one's going to help you." she sniffled, as his thumb traced her bottom lip, "We have that spark.. that spark that lets me know we belong together..forever.." Gabriella bit her lip, "I love you Wildcat.. Forever and Always.. you've been a nice guy too me since I've been here, and what I do is cheat on you.." she cupped his cheeks, "Oh god..please, Just kiss me Troy.. just one last kiss.."
He looked at her, her hands cupping his face as she stared into his eyes. "Brie.." he sighs, turning his head and leaning against the wall, then he looks at her shaking his head. "I can't...I'm sorry but..maybe your just too emotionally damaged." "Troy-" "No.." Gabriella looked at him, he pushed around her and stopped with his hand on the doorknob.
He didn't want to leave, "I will always love you...always and forever, I mean that." Gabriella sniffled, "But why can't you-" "because I can't do that!" he turned on his heel, "not with how you think so low of yourself," "what are you-" "you always expect me to leave when something goes wrong, or when you do something! Why? What do you have going on in your head that thinks that I'll leave you like that bastard Drew did? Are you afraid of getting hurt? I told you I'd never hurt you Gabriella! I meant that!" she sniffled, "Troy, I know what you meant it's just...every guy in my life-and there's only been Drew- they just leave...it's a pattern I grew used to. That I just...expected."
Troy shook his head, "now." she looks at him, "Troy-" "That's not a REASON Gabriella. A pattern? That's a fucking excuse!" "Troy-" "NO! Gabriella, maybe I should leave! And I will, because you expect so highly of me to do so. You are so...misguided and untrusting." "Troy-" He held up a hand to silence her, "Save it okay? I'm sorry, I love you and I love Chloe but if you just expect me to leave...then...I will. You go back to jersey, raise YOUR daughter and just...live on with your 'pattern'."
"But Troy-" "Goodbye Gabriella, I will always love you and Chloe." Gabriella sucked in a breath, "Troy-" "The day a door is closed, the echoes fill your soul they won't tell which way to go...just trust your heart. And when they find what their here for, they open another door, it's just so..hard."
Gabriella sniffled as he grabbed her hand pulling it to his chest, tears rolled down her cheeks. "Voices in my head, tell me they know best, got me on the edge, they're pushing, pushing, pushing, I know they've got a plan." he pulled away from her, "The ball's in my had, this time it's man to man,
I'm driving, I'm fighting, inside a world that's upside down, It's spinning faster, what do I do now, without you, I don't know where to go, what's the right team? I want my own thing, so bad I'm going to scream, I can't choose, I'm so confused, what's it all mean? I want my own dream, so bad I'm gonna scream,"
Gabriella watched Troy walk away from her, and she took a deep breath, "I guess I should of known better, to believe I'm a lucky chain, I lent my heart in forever, we finally learned each other's name, I tell myself this time is different, no goodbyes cause eyes can't bare to say it, I'll never survive on one tha'ts coming, If I stay, Oh no..Just walk away!" She walked into her bedroom throwing her suitcase on the bed and throwing her things and clothes in, "Baby don't look back, cause if my heart breaks, it's going to hurt so bad, You know I'm strong, but I can't look back,, before it's too late, Oh no, just walk away."
Gabriella looked out the window watching Troy walk away, "I've got to let you go, oh no, start protecting my heart and soul, Cause I don't think I'll survive, goodbye again, not again..just walk away, and don't look back, cause if my heart breaks, It's going to hurt so bad, You Know I'm strong, but I can't look back, before it's too late, Oh no, just walk away." She packed all her things, and bringing them to her car, "Walk away, walk away, yeah!" She shut the trunk, and lifted chloe into the carseat, "Oh Walk Away, Walk Away." She slipped into the front seat, and pulling out of the drive-way, "Oh No..." and she drove to the airport.
