Well, I guess my nice side has given in. I have decided that I will start this chapter the morning after I updated last. Once again guys, I DO NOT know when I will get this out. Thankfully, I don't have so much homework...so you people may just get lucky.
Thank you so much for the support you've been giving me...especially in the last chapter ;)
You guys should have heard my twin sister after she read the last chapter.
Smile was in our room with a broom in one hand. When entered she was just like "You're gonna be murdered if you don't get that chapter out soon". I seriously cracked up! Can you imagine my identical twin with a broom in the air and threatening her own blood and flesh with murder?!
Of course, she was joking. I mean we are sisters! BEST BUDS!
Guys, just take all of this as fiction because I have know clue if this the truth or false. So please just take it all as false.
I guess I better keep moving...Disclaimer: I don't own High School Musical..I promise I will give the characters back!
By the way everyone...this is the last chapter...
Chapter 14: The Trusted Truth:
Tears streamed down Gabriella's cheek. She sat in the middle of a vast graveyard in Albuquerque. Rain came down thunderously and created puddles all around the grassy area. The weather was foggy and extremely cold. Gabriella knelt in front of a stone grave, her hair and face extremely wet. Gabriella felt like her insides had been torn apart. She pained helplessly. Her heart was worn out, tired of always letting tears out of her body. Another pair of legs wrapped in soaking wet dark blue jeans stepped beside her and knelt down. It was a young seventeen year old man , the only one who would stand by Gabriella through this treacherous time. The young man scooped Gabriella into his arms and placed a loving kiss on her lips.
"I love you ,Troy, forever,"
"I love you, too, Gabriella. So much"
Flash Back:
In the next few seconds, two lives were saved and one life gone. Carlos smirked when Gabriella shot the gun at Troy, thinking it would reach the boy's heart in a matter of moments but he was wrong. As the bullet came as close as one foot to Troy, he instantly pulled out a scrap of strong, silver metal and held it in front of him. Immediately, the bullet projected off of the piece and was forced strait towards Carlos. Carlos' eyes' widened and before he could even move out of the way, he was struck dead.
Gabriella rushed into Troy's arms once Carlos was proven dead.
"Troy!" she gasped as wrapped her arms around his waist. Gabriella looked at him in the eye before pressing her lips onto his. "For a second there I thought you forgot about our plan" She kissed him again.
"Baby" Troy soothed, trying to keep his voice from cracking. "It's fine, We're here now. Together". The two stood up, and with their hands interlocked they walked to Leah. The poor 15 year old girl had seen everything including Troy and Gabriella's reunion.
For a moment, silence was the only thing that existed. Gabriella was the first to leave their lock and approach Leah. The girl looked down. With her index finger, Gabriella lifted Leah's head to face her.
"You're safe now". With that, Leah burst. She threw her arms around Gabriella and weeped. Finally, she was safe.
"Did you know?" Troy asked the Chief.
Troy and Gabriella had made a quick stop in Albuquerque before heading off back to Washington DC, to drop Leah at her home. Now in DC, they had come to the FBI headquarters. Leah was taken into a room with Steph where she could wait for her father. The two teenagers and Chief Robert were in a dark room discussing important matters. The first thing that needed to be cleared was obvious. Chief Robert looked at Troy, confusion in the brim of his eyes.
"Did you know that Jack and Carlos were related to us? Did you know they were our damn fathers?! Did you know anything about our history before you appointed us to work on this mission?!" Troy bellowed. All the thoughts of his respect that was supposed to be there for the chief were gone.
"Baby, calm down" Gabriella inserted her hand into Troy's and instantly the flame of anger in his eyes died down. Chief's gaze shifted downward. He sighed.
"Before I appointed you two? No, I didn't know anything. All I knew was that you were 17 and from Albuquerque. It was after you two left to Mexico City that I began to research on you you guys. I searched your last names every where on the FBI service computers. I searched on Google and even FBI history" Robert's voice was deep and haunting. The truth was coming out. The trusted truth.
"It was Gabriella's past I found first. It was under the name Montez. When I was searching I came across a hospital's web page. Now these were really really old. It is one's that were put online then deleted but someone saves the page and posts it online again. This web page was a birth certificate that you could print. It was Leah's. The name had read; Leah Annabella Carter-Montez. It had a picture of your mother, Gabriella. Instantly, I knew she was your mother. Gabriella your mother would be so proud. You look just like her" Gabriella winced but Robert continued. "I guess you've already figured it out. Leah is your sister , Gabriella. Your mother died at birth." Robert stopped. He shifted subjects.
"Carlos and Jack were the best of friends and the best in their criminal acts. Troy, Lucille is your mother. The first lady is your mother. Whenever we mentioned you in meetings she would wince or look away. Jack treated her badly and she found comfort in President Carter-"
"But she didn't have the kindness to get out there and look for her son. She wanted royalty more.," Troy interrupted. Robert looked down in shame for her.
"That's true"
"Just one question" Gabriella said. "Where were Troy and I when this was all happening? We were born, I know". Robert chuckled.
"Remember Roger? Your godfather" he looked at Troy "and your uncle," The two nodded. "Your families were the closest people Roger had. So, when Jack and Carlos left, you two were left in his hands. Ever since then, you two were passed around all of the agents that had some free time on them. When you were old enough, the agency in Albuquerque gave you apartments to live in and nurses would stay with you there." Robert chuckled. " I remembered the first day Robert brought you into the building. You guys couldn't leave each other's sight. I'm glad it worked for you two. Everyone in the agency knew that Troy and Gabriella would grow up to be something," The last sentence Robert uttered left him smiling. There was silence for sometime.
"I think you two might need rest in a real bed. Go to your apartment, you guys will need to stay here for a couple more days before you head home" With that, Chief Robert dismissed them.
Troy's head lay on Gabriella's lap while the rest of his body rested on the sofa. They didn't speak at all since the two came into their temporary apartment. Neither of them freshened up. They just lay there staring into each other's eyes. Gabriella stroked Troy's caramel hair while he caressed her arm. Troy fished for anything she was going to say in her deep chocolate pool but he kept getting lost in them and caught nothing.
"I just didn't know..it would end like this" Troy said after pulling back from another long gaze between them. Gabriella took a deep breath and exhaled.
"At least we have each other, right?" Troy sat up. He shifted so his bottom would be on the other side of Gabriella and his legs stretched over her lap. Troy turned her head to face him and brought his face closer to hers.
"Gabriella, I love you. We are going to have each other even after we die" he told her seriously. Gabriella nodded and pulled back tears from her eyes. She closed the gap between both of their lips pressing and massaging.
"I love you ,too". Gabriella wrapped her hands around Troy's neck and exploded into tears. Troy twirled his arms around Gabriella and drew her closer so now she was on his lap. In minutes, Troy himself found himself weeping. They had finally discovered their past. The past which had led them to the situation they have right now.
A knock sounded at the door. Gabriella sniffed and managed to yell a "come in" to their guest. The door knob twisted, turned and pushed out. Sunlight came blazing into the dark apartment. At first, Troy and Gabriella struggled to see who stood at the door but soon enough a petite fifteen year old emerged at the doorway. Leah ran to her sister and Troy and engulfed them with her arms. No words were exchanged, before all three were on the ground clutching each other for life and pouring tears out.
Tears of joy. Tears of hope. And Tears of Love.
Troy and Gabriella reached the White House for the last time when a commotion was astir. People were crowded around the gates, some with video cameras, some in front of the cameras with microphones but many just by-passers who lived in Washington DC. Police men were at a unsuccessful attempt to control the swarm. It was sunny out, moderate weather. Troy and Gabriella were here to say their last good bye to Leah and President Carter and for Troy; he hoped that he would at least get a word with his mother.
"What happened?!" Gabriella asked out to no one; hoping that someone would answer her question. A man with a Red Socks cap and a North Face jacket on answered them.
"The first lady! She was the one who let the criminals into the White House! They are arresting her" he explained. Gabriella gasped and gripped Troy's arm. Now both of them were surrounded by family who do no good. Troy and Gabriella found themselves held back by yellow caution tape. Now they could see everything. A lady dressed in red was handcuffed in the back and held tightly by two hefty policeman in sunglasses. She walked , her head down in shame, towards a police car. Troy led Gabriella through the crowd closer and closer towards the White House, hoping that Lucille wouldn't see them
"Troy! My baby!" a woman gasped. Troy's eyes widened. Now she remembers... The woman went wild and ran towards Troy, out of the control of the policemen.
"Troy!" the woman stared at him with her lunatic eyes. "Remember me?! It's me , I'm your mother. It's me!" she gasped. Her figure haunted Troy. Gabriella clutched Troy's hand tighter.
"Sir, do you remember this lady from your childhood and not from the TV?" the officer behind Lucille questioned. Troy looked at her firmly, his heart filled with disgust.
"No" Troy said loud and clear. "This lady is no mother of mine"
The soothing, bubbling water boiled all around Gabriella and Troy.
It had been a week since the two arrived in Albuquerque. The FBI headquarters was the first place that the two entered ,other than the airport and a taxi. Over the whole week, everything had settled down quickly. East High welcomed the two teenagers with open arms. Thankfully,now, only the teachers at East High knew about Troy and Gabriella's involvement in the FBI. The students were safely kept from the secret.
Gabriella and Troy easily caught up to everything thing that happened over the two months that they had been gone. Two days after they came back, Troy and Gabriella found a larger apartment and moved in together. The FBI had promised to keep the two healthy and well kept until they were old enough to take care of themselves, including paying the home bills. Speaking of which, the agency was overwhelmed when they figured out that the boy and girl were moving in with each other; that meant a lesser cost for bills! Also, they were very pleasured when the news spread that Troy and Gabriella had finally found love in each other!
Uncle Roger was more than excited to see his two favorite kids back at home. He offered them anything they wanted as a treat for accomplishing their first mission.
"Actually there is one thing" Troy had said. He took Uncle Roger aside that day and planned with him something very special for Gabriella and him.
So now, Troy and Gabriella are on their first official date, on the rooftop of East High. The moon glistened along with the stars. The two sat in a large Spa Tub, clad in only swim wear, staring at the sky. A dinner table with unwashed plates on top of it was left to the side.
Gabriella wore a black and white striped bikini halter and matching swim panties. Like Gabriella's choice of texture, Troy's swim trunks were black and white striped, too. Gabriella was sitting on Troy, in the water, with her legs wrapped around his waist and her arms around his neck. Troy smiled at her shining eyes as the two pulled back from one of their billions of kisses.
"So, you forced me in a dress and dragged me out of our warm and cozy apartment for this?" Gabriella pressed her lips onto his "A beautiful night, a spa tub, the wonderful dinner of pizza and coke, and ...do I see a bed over there?" Gabriella looked over his shoulder to find, once again, a white bed with a canopy hung over it. Troy laughed and kissed Gabriella again. " I love it" she admitted and pressed them into another kiss.
Troy moaned and hit his head back to the edge of the tub. "I love you".
"I love you so much, Troy...you have no idea" Gabriella continued their pattern of kisses.
"Oh, I do!" Troy gasped after pulling back and entering into another kiss afterwards.
Gabriella moaned along with Troy . "Baby, I knew it was the right thing to come prepared" Troy uttered, one of the last things either of them said ,while sane, throughout the night.
Love doesn't make the ride go 'round; love is what makes the ride worthwhile.
