A/N: New Chapter. [:
Alex was glad to be home. Her real home. The place she thought she could leave and never come back, when reality was, it was where she needed to be all along. She woke up, and tip-toed her way into her daddy's room. She saw that he was still asleep, she climbed up into the bed with him. She started to jump, "Daddy, wake up!" Troy rolled over in bed, putting the pillow over his face, "5 more minutes?"
"No, you said that 5 minutes ago."
"You weren't in here five minutes ago."
"Really? Are you sure? I could have these like mind...bending powers."
"I wish I had mind bending powers."
"Why?"
"So then I could 'bend' your mind, and make you go away so I can get more sleep."
"That's not nice."
"Really? Are you sure?"
"Now your copying me!"
"Am I really? Are you sure? Aren't you the one copying me?"
"No, your copying me."
"No, your copying me."
"Stop that right now!"
"Stop that right now!"
"Daddy, your such a kid."
"Alex, I know." The little girl rolled her eyes, and hit him with a pillow. Troy smiled. "Go put on some clothes, we're going out for breakfast today."
"Is Gabi coming?" Troy looked at her. He didn't want to ruin the surprise. "I don't think so..."
"WHY?! She's your girlfriend!! I thought your supposed to invite them places."
"I just thought it was going to be just the two of us. Whats wrong with a father wanting to hang out with his daughter."
"If you would of asked me that when I just turned 5, I would say nothing. But now, since I'm almost 6, everything. I'm growing up daddy. I can't even call you daddy anymore."
"Why?"
"Well you know how when I was a baby, I would call you Dada?"
"Yeah..."
"Well I grew out of that. Now I'm growing out of calling you daddy. I have to start calling you dad."
"Your breaking my heart, Al."
"I know, I hope you understand."
"No, I don't."
"Well, try, for me?"
"Are you sure your five? Cause your talking like your 15."
"Its life, daddy, wait I mean, dad."
"Well, if your going to start calling me dad, I'm going to stop calling you Alex, and just call you Alexandra."
"That's not cool! That really hurts."
"Cry me a river. Go get dressed." Alex nodded her head, and left her father's room. Troy, himself got up and ready.
"Okay, Al. Close your eyes.", Troy instructed her, as he grabbed her hand. She did so and also put her free hand over her eyes. "Where are we?"
"A very special place. One of your favorite places to go."
"Cinderella's castle?!"
"No, your second favorite place."
"New York?!"
"Third?"
"Sea World?!"
"Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth!"
"Bikini Bottom, Beach, and Home."
"Okay, you can open your eyes now.", he said getting tired of the games he was trying to play. She removed her hand. A smile on her face. "Lucky number 5! but, why are we here?"
"Well, why not celebrate your homecoming?"
"I guess...", she said looking around she saw figures walking around a little shack without walls. She ran towards them. One picking her up instantly. "Wow, everyone's here. Granny, Grampy, Auntie Pay, Tay, Kelsi, Vicky, Chad, Zeke, Jason, and Ry. I love you guys." everyone awed over the little girl. "Party Time!" Sharpay screamed, turning on the music, everyone started to dance. Alex danced with her grandpa Jack first since he was the one holding her, and after 3 minutes with him, she was passed on to person to person. Giggling wildly the entire town. Troy smiled as he danced with Gabriella. "She's so happy.", she said smiling at the sight of the little girl, now dancing with Sharpay. "I know. I really hope Taylor can pull this off. I need custody of her now. She's so happy back home. I don't want to see her miserable again." Gabriella smiled again. "No one wants to see her miserable again. Even the paparazzi miss Alex. Homes all over the country want Alex back in her daddy's arms. Everyone wants Alex to be happy. She's captured everyone's hearts, Troy. Looks like she inherited the Bolton charm.", Troy captured Gabriella's lips in a quick kiss. Alex came up to him. "Daddy, wait ugh I did it again. Dad, what's for breakfast." Troy picked her up. "Well, since its all about you right now. One of your favorite foods."
"Chicken nuggets?!"
"Second?"
"Fries!"
"Third?"
"Waffles!"
"Fourth, Fifth,and Sixth?!"
"Pizza, Spaghetti, and ice cream."
"Definitely not number six...more like number 4. "
"Cool. Pizza for breakfast!" He put her down as she ran to her grandma. His cell phone started to ring. He didn't bother to look at the caller-id. "Hello?"
"Troy, where's Alex?!", the mystery caller asked.
"Look, it doesn't matter where she is. All that matters is that she's away from you."
"Troy, give it up. I'm going to win her back tomorrow at the hearing."
"I called for an emergency hearing. That basically hints that something's wrong. Why on earth, would you think that means you have a possibility of keeping Alex?"
"Whatever. I have to go. See you in court."
"Yes you will."
A/N: Wow, this chapter wasn't what I expected. But its done. Next chapter obviously the last court hearing and chapter. Then there's my epilogue. I'm sorry this took so long to get out. And I don't really like it, but tell me what you think anyways.
