8 Months Later
Tonight was the night. It was the night Troy's parents were coming into town and for dinner. Gabriella was fixing Troy's tie. "They'll be here any minute Troy." Gabriella had on a Black and Grey dress. the Top was black, and skirt was grey, and she had her hair straightened down. Troy smiled down at her, "You look beautiful." she giggled, "Thank you. now, your parents will be here any minute.. we need to tell them the news about the baby." Troy smiled softly.
There was a knock on the door. Gabriella smiled, "Show time." Troy walked over to the door opening it to find his mother's arms wrapped around his neck. "My baby! I missed you so much!" Troy smiled hugging her back, "I missed you too mom." Jack walked in, "Hey son! there's the Laker Captain!" Troy smiled sadly, "Hey...Dad..I mean coach." Jack smiled, "How have you been son? you've grown into a better basketball player!"
Troy sighed, "Yeah.. er.. umm." Gabriella walked over, "Hi Mr and Mrs Bolton." Sandra looked at her, "Gabriella! Oh my god! I never thought I see you again! my you got so beautiful!" Sandra hugged her tightly. Gabriella smiled, "It's nice seeing you again Sandra." Jack cleared his throat, "Troy.. may I uh.. talk to you privately." Troy nodded, as both Bolton man went outside. Jack turned to him, "What is SHE doing here?"
Troy looked down at his feet, "well uh, dad I mean coach!" Jack grabbed Troy by the shoulders and pushed him into the wall, "SHE's a distraction Troy-" "no she's not DAD." Troy spat, shoving his father backwards, "We are meant to be together...I'm sorry if I'm not the PERFECT son for you or what you had built up in your head...but she and I are together, we're getting married-" "WHAT?!" his eyes were flaring, Troy went on like he didn't hear his father, "...and we're having twins together-" "So that's why your doing this? Taking in some pregnant whore-" Punch!
Gabriella and Sandra's heads snapped to the door, to hear the fight. "what's going on?" Gabriella said as her and Sandra made their way to the door. Gabriella gasped when she opened it. "Troy!" Troy looked at her after he had pushed his father on the floor.
Gabriella bit her lip, Sandra stood there, "Jack! what's going on?" Jack helped himself up, "Ask your son." Troy grabbed Gabriella's hand, pulling her closer to him. "Mom. I'm inlove with Gabriella Montez! I always have been, and always will be... I'm marrying her, she's the love of my life, she's my everything. and were having twins." Gabriella smiled, "Troy, we don't know yet-" he looked at her, "I can just feel it."
Sandra smiled, "That's so great! I always hoped it would be Gabriella you would be walking down the isle-" "Sandra! That girl has always been a distraction in Troy's life!" he pointed to Gabriella. Sandra shook her head, "Jack, Troy loves Gabriella, and she loves him back, just let them be happy-"
Jack looked at the two, "I don't approve this." Gabriella bit her lip, "Coach..I.. I love your son, dearly.. he means everything to me... I would never try to ruin his basketball career, I love him very very much...and I will be with him for a very long time."
Jack frowned, his eyes hard and his lips set in a tough line. "I don't approve, and I'm sorry Troy...but I think you're better off without this...well without HER." Gabriella bit her lip, fighting against the tears that threatened to fall.
Troy felt fury bubble in his gut. "Dad, that's enough..all right? I'm tired of you...controlling me. I love Gabriella, I'm going to marry her...we're going to have twins-" "Troy, we don't know if I am carrying-" "WHAT?!" Jack yelled, "you mean she's - you got this slut pregnant?!"
Gabriella bit her lip, Troy narrowed his eyes, "You don't call her that.. you don't fucking call her that again..Ever!" His voice were threatening and cold, just like his words and eyes. Gabriella hugged his arm, "Troy-" Sandra held onto Jack's arm, "Jack, stop it.. Troy loves Gabriella..he loves her very much-"
"This was a mistake!" Jack yelled. Gabriella bit her lip, holding back her tears, just looking at Jack. he looked at her, "Why couldn't you just of stayed in Pennsylvania." Troy glared at him, "Dad!" Gabriella bit her lip, "I'm sorry..." she looked down at the floor, "I'm sorry." she ran out of the house.
Troy glared at his father, "That...was uncalled for.." he said in a low, threatening voice. "I was only being honest." Jack said, Troy punched his jaw and sent him stumbling back, "Get out..." he whispered, "get out of my house! Now! You fucking ass hole!" Bam! Jack sent a punch back at Troy's jaw tenfold. Sending him on his ass.
"Troy...Jack..." Sandra said, coming between them. "Stop it! Both of you! Calm down!" The two Bolton men glare heatedly at each other. "Troy," Sandra said, "go find Gabriella and bring her back here...and Jack"-she's glaring at her husband-"go sit in the car and don't come out for an hour. Or just go home...I'll be staying. Troy and Gabriella could use support and it's obviously not coming from you.."
Jack glared at her, "You can't be approving this!" Sandra rolled her eyes, "His my son, and Gabriella, rather you like it or not, will be my daughter in law soon, and I love them both very much.." Jack glared at her, walked out of the door and going to the car. Troy glared at him as he walked out the door.
He turned to his mother. "Thanks mom." she smiled, "No problem. I'll help finish dinner, you go talk to Gabriella." Troy nodded running out the back door that led to the patio. he found Gabriella seating on the outside couch, her legs layed beside her, and she was looking down at the ground.
He smiled sadly, "Hey." she bit her lip, looking away, "Hi." he sighed, "Brie, don't listen to him-" "Are you sure you want to marry me? are you sure you want me in your life Troy?" she sniffled.
"Hey...hey..." he whispered, wrapping an arm around her shoulders and pulling her close, "I wanted you in my life from the day we first met; especially when you whispered you loved me at the homecoming dance Senior Year."
Gabriella smiled, she looked at him with tears in her eyes, "I just...I want both of your parents approval Troy-" "My dad is stupid and retarded...he doesn't know-" "Don't talk about your father like that ..." "Brie-" "I don't want to hear it...please respect your father, he'll respect you. I just...I'll try my best to get his approval."
Troy sighed, "Brie..It's going to be hard to get his approval." Gabriella shook her head, "I don't think so." she put her hand over his, "I want everything to be perfect." Troy cupped her cheek, "Brie... everything can't be perfect...we just have to do the best we can." Gabriella sighed, "I..I don't know-" he smiled, kissing her lips, "is there anything I can do to make you feel better?"
Gabriella shook her head, "I..I just wanna go lay down Troy..I'm tired, and not hungry." Troy nodded, "Then you get some sleep okay." Gabriella nodded kissing his lips, and going back inside the house and going upstairs to fall asleep.
TGTGTGTG
Sandra Bolton was out of Troy's house and back at the hotel. Troy was sitting on the couch watching the basketball game. soon the door flew open, and Gabriella walked in but turned around towards the door, "Stay here." Troy looked over, and smiled, "Hey, what's up?" she smiled, holding something behind her back.
"What's behind your back?" she giggled, "I wanted to keep it a supirse." he looked at her, "what?" she smiled lifting up a dalmation puppy behind the door, "I got a puppy.. isn't she adorable? her name is Chloe..and she's the type that will stay small forever.. can I keep her? please! please!"
Troy laughed, getting up from the couch and taking the puppy from her and holding her in the air. "Hmm...Chloe huh?" Gabriella giggled, scratching her on the tummy. Troy laughs, "I don't see why not-" just then Chloe let's a small stream of yellow urine out; hitting Troy on the chest-and a little on the chin. Gabriella gasps, "I...Troy, I'm sorry.."
Troy wiped his chin, "It's fine.. but uh she can sleep on the floor, okay?" Gabriella smiled, "Thank you! I knew you would let me keep her!" Gabriella held chloe in her arms, "Come on Chloe, I'll show you were your going to sleep tonight."
Troy chuckled following behind her, as Gabriella sat her on their bed, "Woah, that's our bed." Troy said. Gabriella smiled, sitting down and petting chloe, "Troy, this is her first night, she's going to be scared." Troy rolled his eyes, "Okay, fine.. let's get going, we get to find out what were having today? remember?" Gabriella smiled, "Yeah, I know.. but I don't wanna leave her here by herself.."
Troy sighed, "come on...she'll be fine-" "Troy.." "Brie...come on, Chloe will be fine." Gabriella crossed her arms over her belly and breasts, stomping her feet. "Nope. I'm not going, unless Chloe goes with." Troy sighed, pinching the bridge of his nose. "Okay...but if she pees or shits in the car, she's out..."
Gabriella smiled, "Thank you." she lifted chloe up taking her to the car to sit up front. as they drove to the doctor's office, Gabriella still held chloe in her arms. "Brie, we can't take her in." Gabriella sighed, "I know.." she cupped chloe's cheeks, "Chloe.. baby girl, you have to stay in the car.."
Chloe began whimpering, "I know, I know, but daddy is being a butthead." Troy chuckled, "Brie." Gabriella gasped, and smiled at him, "Troy-" he looked at her, and then shook his head, "No!" she sighed, "Come on Troy! I'll go in, and you can stay in the car with chloe and get to know her, please? she loves you already, look?" she lifted chloe up to him, and she licked his face, "See she loves you already."
Troy looks at the small dog, winching as she licked his face. He looked at Gabriella, "Fine..I'll stay with the mutt-" "Chloe." Gabriella corrected, "Chloe." Troy said. Gabriella giggles, putting Chloe on her lap, "hear that baby girl? Daddy's going to watch you...you'll have so much fun with him! You'll be best friends!" "Brie...dammit, she's a dog-" Gabriella gasped, covering Chloe's small ears, "She doesn't know that Troy! Shh!" Troy rolled his eyes.
When they pulled into the doctor's office parking lot, Gabriella kissed Chloe on the head and got out. "Be good for daddy baby girl...be good...good girl." she smiled, looking at Troy, "I love you Troy." "Love you too.." he waved as she walked into the doctor's office, Troy looks at Chloe sitting where Gabriella did. "You know your a dog right?"
She growls and barks, "yupp, I thought so." Bark. Growl. "Shut up already." Chloe seemed to be glaring at him. Glaring! Half an hour later, Chloe was sniffing around the seats, her nails clicking on the leather. "What are you doing?" Troy asks the dog, sitting up straighter.
Chloe squats. "No..no...no.." and pees. "That's it." Troy said, unbuckling his seat belt and picking up the small dog and getting out of the car, "you are...out of here okay," he muttered. But when he put her down in the grass, Gabriella's voice came to his ears. "Troy?" he turned, picking up Chloe quickly. "Oh hey..Brie." "What are you doing?" "Oh just...taking Chloe pottty...don't sit on the passenger seat."
Gabriella smiled, "That's what I thought." she said getting into the back seat, "Come here chloe, come here girl." Chloe wagged her tail back and fourth, hopping into gabriella's lap, and licked her. Gabriella giggled, "and Troy you were right." "right about what?" she smiled, "We're having twins."
Troy smiled, "nice. I knew it." placing his hands on the steering wheel, and backing out of the parking lot. When they were on the road, Troy reached to turn on the radio, Not Afraid by Eminem coming on through the speakers. Chloe starts barking and growling. Troy rolls his eyes and grits his teeth. Gabriella giggles, "I don't think that Chloe likes that song.."
Of course she doesn't. Troy thinks to himself, reaching to turn it to a different song. Internation Love by Pitbull. Chloe barks and howls louder. Gabriella laughs, "Silly girl...Troy...how about Because You Live by Jesse McCartney?" She grabs the CD that's in her purse. Troy looks at her through the rear-view mirror. "Brie-" Chloe barks and growls. Gabriella giggles, "It's what Chloe wants."
As they pulled up to the house. Gabriella held chloe in her arms walking into the house with Troy behind her. Gabriella let Chloe on the ground. "Come here girl, I got you some food." she opened the big bag of dog food pouring it in the bowl.
Chloe ran to the bowl, and began eating it. Gabriella smiled, "aww.. that's my girl." Troy sat on the couch, huffing and puffing. Gabriella smirked, walking over to him, and straddling his lap, and resting her hands on his shoulders, "Awww is my Troy feeling abandon cause I'm giving attention to chloe?"
Troy chuckled, "Hardly.." the dog just hates me. Troy thinks, he wrapped his hands around Gabriella's hips and then lifted his right hand to place on her belly. "Twins." Bark! The couple turns to see Chloe sitting on the floor in front of the couch.
Gabriella giggles, "Chloe...up girl." The dog jumps on the couch, going on Troy's lap and sitting. "See Troy. She likes you." Troy stiffened, "Brie.." "yeah?" "uh...I don't think she likes me." "Why?" "cause she wouldn't pee on me AGAIN if she did."
Gabriella bit her lip, "ohh.." she looked at Chloe, "Chloe..bad girl!" Chloe whimpered, and layed her head down on the couch. Gabriella looked at Troy, "You just have to get used to her." she smiled.
Troy rolled his eyes sighing, "I guess...for you." she giggled, "Great." she pecked his lips, "I'm going to take a shower, and you and Chloe can bond." she smiled getting off his lap, and kissing chloe's snout, and going into the bathroom.
Troy looked at the small dog, she lifted her head to stare at Troy. He sighs, "you know your a dog right?" he asks, repeating his question from the parking lot. Chloe barked, standing on her four legs, barking continuously. "Shut up.." Troy groans, leaning his head back on the couch.
Chloe growls and barks jumping on his lap and pawing at his chest. he jumps at the small dog, "you...are a ferocious little pain in the-" "Troy?" He turns quickly and looks at Gabriella; who has her arms crossed and her lips are turned up in a smirk and her eyes are bright with confusion. "What are you doing?"
"Uh...I...well," he picks up Chloe and starts petting her head. "I'm just bonding with Chloe." Chloe growls softly. Gabriella giggles, "well...she likes you. See? She's smiling!" Troy wearily turns Chloe in his hands and sees Chloe growling. Yeah...peachy.
Gabriella smiled, "I'll be in the in the shower.. love you." she blew a kiss to him and grabbed a towel from the hallway going into the bathroom. Troy sighed, looking down at Chloe on his lap. "I know you hate me, and truth is I'm not fond of you either."
Chloe growled at him. he sighed running a hand through his hair, "Your just lucky that I happen to love Gabriella too...I won't make you sleep on the deck tonight." Chloe still kept growling. suddenly, he heard the door fly open, his head perked up, and his eyes darted at Gabriella who walked out looking at the ground. "Brie..what's wrong?" she bit her lip looking at him, "I..It's time Troy."
Troy's eyes popped out of his head, "Brie.. you..you can't be your only 8 months-" "Troy..I'm in pain, my water just now broke, so get me to the hospital if you want a family!" Troy threw his hands up in defense, "Okay. Alright. come on, I'll get you to the hospital." she wrapped her arm around his neck carrying her to the car. Chloe barked out the window as they got into the car to drive to the hospital.
