Hey guys,
sorry for the wait, but I do A Level work, have dance stuff going on and other stuff I shan't bother you with.
Enjoy, Danielle xox
"Gabriella?" Troy's voice was smooth yet slightly nervous as he leant against my locker. It had been yesterday that I'd had me reunion with Sharpay and Taylor, and I was hurrying slightly to meet them for our shopping trip after school.
"Yeah?" I replied quickly, throwing the books I needed for homework into my schoolbag and slamming the locker door.
"Lizzie wants to have girl time with you." I glanced up at his nervous face and my heart warmed when I realised he was trying to help his sister.
"I'll figure something out." I promised, kissing his cheek quickly. "I need to go meet Tay and Shar, you coming to the parking lot?"
"Yeah." He grinned cheekily, grabbing my head and pulling me towards the front door. Troy was loving my best friends, with any awkwardness they should of encountered being left behind. In fact, Troy and Taylor had spent the lunch break doing algebra, with regular gaps for Taylor and Chad to finally have the time that should have been there since freshman year.
"You love my friends more than me." I pouted, and he shook his head.
"I love you so much more. But I probably prefer them to Chad." He teased, and I shoved him playfully. "You should go shopping with Lizzie on Saturday whilst I'm at work." He suggested, and I looked at him, surprised. "And maybe take Tay and Shar."
"That was a good idea." I stated, and he nodded his head. "Keep those coming." I told him, and he chuckled as we passed through the front doors.
"Hey guys!" Chad's voice came from the steps. Glancing over at him, I wasn't shocked to see he was stood very close to a certain McKessie I knew. Sharpay was grinning from ear to ear, and I made a mental note to talk to her later.
"Hey Chad." I greeted him, and he shot me a warm glance. "Tay and Shar, do you fancy a shopping trip on Saturday with Lizzie and me?" I asked, and Taylor nodded.
"Why doesn't she just come now?" Sharpay piped up, and I glanced at Taylor, who shrugged as if to say 'yes'.
"Okay." I grinned, and Troy gave me a subtle squeeze 0f my hand in thanks. "Will you text her and ask her Troy?" I grinned sweetly at him, and he sighed, giving me a nod.
"It's a damn good thing I love you, Gabriella Montez."
"I know." I replied cheekily. "I love you too." Paying no attention to my friends as they made 'awww' noises, and even less attention to Chad, who was currently fake gagging, I leant in and met his lips in a sweet kiss that I'd been aching to give since lunch.
"Troy, that's gross." A voice came, and I pulled away to see Lizzie. She grinned at me as she folded her arms. "We going home, Troy?" She asked, and he nudged me forwards.
"Do you fancy coming shopping with me, Tay and Shar?" I asked, and her smile widened as she n0dded. "I need to get some bigger clothes." I told her, motioning towards my button up pinstriped pink shirt, which was straining slightly at the Bolton/Montez baby beneath it.
"I would love to…" She trailed off. "Are we going now, 'cause I don't have any money." Troy rolled his eyes, pulling his arm off my shoulder reluctantly and grabbing his wallet from his pocket, pulling out fifty dollars and handing it to his sister.
"Behave." He warned her, and she nodded earnestly before taking the money and being hugged by an excitable Sharpay. Taylor and Chad said their goodbyes, and Troy turned to me.
"I'm so glad we set them up on that date." I told him, and he nodded, kissing me quickly.
"I love you." He murmured, and I nodded, pulling away slightly.
"I love you too… I'll take care of your sister." I told him, and he kissed me again, smiling against my lips.
"And yourself… and our baby." He gave me a final kiss and pulled away, pushing me towards the car softly. I winked at him, climbing in the backseat next to Taylor and shutting the door, suddenly hearing nothing but Sharpay and Lizzie's chatter on how Jimmy Choo's latest collection wasn't as good as last years.
"Who knew they'd get on like a house on fire?" Taylor whispered, and I nodded in disbelief.
"A Bolton and an Evans." I told her dryly. "Best of buddies." Taylor laughed, and suddenly the chatter came to a hold as Sharpay started to play cheesy One Direction songs over the stereo.
We continued along the roads, singing 'That's What Makes You Beautiful' as we came up to the mall, and when we arrived, we all jumped from the car, running before the shops could close.
Taylor and Sharpay headed off automatically in search of date clothes, as Troy and I had set a double date up for them, and Lizzie turned to me grinning. "Maternity shops?" She asked, and I sighed.
"I suppose so." I groaned, watching as she pulled me excitedly to the shops. As she shot me her smile, I found it hard to believe we could of hated each other.
