Hey all, I'm glad you guys liked my last chapter. The comments, as always, were wonderful. Sorry it was a cliffy but I had to do it. But here's the next chapter so all of your questions will be answered. Hope you all like this one too and reviews are always welcome.
The whole ride to the hospital was a blur to Gabriella. All she remembered was Troy scooping her up off the floor and carrying her to the car. The next thing she knew she was lying alone in a pure white hospital room. Test upon test was being run on her and on top of that she couldn't be with Troy. He of course was right outside her door, refusing to budge. He had promised her on the ride over that he wouldn't leave her side and he kept that promise until not only the doctors, but also his own friends forced him away so they could find out what was wrong. Even though he couldn't be y her side he felt outside her door would be good enough. After about a half hour of tests Gabriella was sleeping peacefully and her friends and family were finally allowed to see her. Troy was of course the first one through the door. He practically ran to the side of her bed, and let a small smile form on his face once he saw that she was ok. He hated waiting and not knowing what was going on, so just seeing her sleeping helped him relax a bit. The two couples that had also gone to the hospital were Chad and Taylor and Sharpay and Zeke. They knew it was best to let Troy and Gabriella be alone, at least for a while so they stayed put in the waiting room. They all knew it was going to be a long day.

Hour after hour had passed and still no results from the tests. Troy hadn't left Gabriella's room for the entire time. He always kept his promises and this was definitely one he was not going to break. Their friends had been in and out a few times but never stayed more than twenty minutes. Troy was worried beyond belief and they knew if one of them said the wrong thing by accident they could send Troy over the edge. So they felt it was best just to check on them every so often. Just as the evening rolled around Gabriella woke up.
"Hey there." Troy smiled once he felt her link hands with him.
"What happened? Is everything okay with the baby?" she asked quietly as Troy pulled his chair next to her bed and sat down, still holding on to her hand tight.
"I don't know, they won't tell me anything." He sighed. Gabriella looked away and quickly wiped away a stray tear. After a few silent minutes passed Gabriella finally broke down.
"Troy what if something's wrong? Like seriously wrong. What if the baby doesn't…" she said but didn't get to finish completely.
"Gabby don't even think that. Everything will be fine." Troy interrupted.
"You don't know that, the doctors don't even know yet." She said back and a few tears slid down her cheeks. "What if it's something serious?"
"Gabby it's not serious. The doctor will be in here any minute and tell us that everything is fine." He replied, wiping her tears away.
"Promise?" she asked softly.
"I promise." He said and a tiny smile appeared on Gabriella's face. Sure, he honestly had no idea if everything was going to be okay, but he made that promise anyway. No matter what the doctor said Troy was going to make sure everything would turn out fine.
"Thank you Troy. I don't know what I would do without you." She said sitting up and pulling him into a hug. He held her close and then set his hand on her stomach. "I love you Gabby, we're all gonna be okay." He said rubbing his hand across her stomach slowly.
"I know that now." She smiled and set her hand on top of his.

By the time it was eight o'clock both Troy and Gabriella were beat. They were physically and emotionally drained and they still had no news on the baby. Their friends had long gone home. Both of their parents had stopped in and ended up in the waiting room, all on the verge of falling asleep. The waiting was really starting to get to Gabriella and she was get impatient.
"Troy when are they gonna tell us something?" she asked for what seemed like the thousandth time that day.
"I don't know Gabby, just like I haven't known for the past two hours." He said back trying to sound as un-annoyed as he could.
"I am going to crazy if they don't tell us something soon." She said as she subconsciously rubbed her stomach.
"Yeah me too." Troy said sarcastically. Gabriella rolled her eyes at him and then crossed her arms over her chest. They sat like that for about ten minutes and then the one thing they had been waiting for finally happened.
"Knock knock." Gabriella's doctor, Dr. Lee, said as she opened the door and peeked her head in. Troy got up and sat next to Gabriella as Dr. Lee made her way in, checking her clipboard. Gabriella instantly grabbed his hand and held it tight.
"Gabriella how are you feeling?" she asked, still shuffling through her papers.
"Fine, I've felt fine for the past few hours." She said looking up at Troy who nodded in agreement.
"Okay good. Now I'm sure you both are wondering what's going on." She said finally looking up from her clipboard. Troy and Gabriella both nodded. "Please tell me everything is okay." Gabriella pleaded and squeezed Troy's hand tighter.
"Fine, everything is one hundred percent okay." Dr. Lee said and both Troy and Gabriella let out a huge sigh of relief. "We ran so many tests just to make sure we wouldn't miss anything." She added.
"So then what did happen?" Troy asked.
"Well we're thinking Gabriella's been under a lot of stress lately." Dr. Lee replied.
"Yeah a ton." She said, quickly thinking about all the crazy things that had been going on.
"Well then there's you're answer stress on mommy means stress in there." Dr. Lee smiled and pointed at Gabriella's stomach.
"So everything is okay? There's nothing to worry about?" Troy asked just to make sure.
"There is absolutely nothing to worry about. The babies are fine." Dr. Lee said putting a little emphasis on the last part of the sentence.
"Thank god." Troy said pulling Gabriella in for another hug and kissed her cheek. They both pulled away and then looked at each other.
"Wait did you just say babies?" Gabriella asked as a huge smile stretched across her face.
Dr. Lee smiled and said, "I did. You guys are having twins."
Troy and Gabriella couldn't believe what they were hearing. They came into the hospital thinking the worst was going to happen just to find out their life was going to be even better. Dr. Lee slipped out of the room as the two hugged once again.
"Troy we're having twins." Gabriella smiled and set her hands on her stomach.
"And I couldn't be happier." He said letting his hand join hers.
