Gabriella ran her fingers through her hair as she set her stuff on the table."Well?"George started.

"Well what?"Gabriella responded.

"Well let's hear it."

"Hear what?"

"You know what he's talking about Gabriella."Mr.Smith responded."Why have you been hanging around some other guy other than my son?"He demanded, angry.

"I can't believe you would do that Gabriella!"Her father hollered."How could you cheat on George?!"Gabriella remained silent.They were right. She did cheat on him.

"Well?"George said walking toward her."Do you have anything to say?"Gabriella looked up but reamained silent.

"Oh so you have nothing to say."George said."You hang around with some guy for god's knows how long and you're silent."

"Im am so sorry George for the problems my daughter has caused."Mr.Montez started."I don't know what she was thinking."He said looking Gabriella sternly in the eye.

"Me either."Mrs.Montez finished.

"Well you have all the time in the world Gabriella. We all especially George would like, actually demand an explanation."Mr.Smith said.

"How did you guys even find this out?"Gabriella finally managed.

"Oh come on Gabriella have some sense will you?"Mr.Smith responded."George told us. And im glad he did."At that moment Gabriella looked at her parents to see if they would say anything or at least give a look to what had to be a rude comment from Mr.Smith. She begged to see them say anything, do anything to protect her. They didn't say anything and that's when Gabriella knew she was helpless.

"Well?"George asked following all eyes on her.Gabriella shook her head and walked/ran upstairs."What the hell?"George said as everyone got up.

"Where is she going.She still has a lot of explaining to do."Mrs.Smith said as the families got up.Gabriella ran into a guest room and locked it.She needed someone to talk to someone for help, and she knew exactly who.Gabriella grabbed her cell and dialed now in tears.

"Hello?"

"Hey, can you please come here, im at George's house."

"Wait hold on whats wrong?"

"I'll tell you just please hurry here, please."

"Okay i'll be there in a few minutes."

"Please hurry."Gabriella cried as she heard footsteps."I need you right now!"

"I'll be there in a minute. Don't worry."

"Okay."Gabriella said as she hung up."Gabriella open the door!"George shouted as he banged on the door. Gabriella looked angrily at the door and got a surge of energy."You wont control me."She said as she opened to door.

"You're right I have something to say."George crossed his arms as the doorbell rang.

"Right on time."Gabriella said wiping away her tears and making her way down stairs to the door.

"Who is what are you talking about."Mr.Montez said.

"I won't let you control me anymore!"Gabriella yelled at George before opening the door.

"You!"George said even more furious as he came face to face with the surprised man who became infuriated after he quickly realised what was going on.

"His name is Troy."Gabriella said as she took Troy's hand and let him in.

"What?"

"I said his name is Troy!"Gabriella said loud enough that everyone could hear her.After making sure everyone heard Gabriella looked to see the mostly shocked expressions on her parents faces and the clueless expressions on George's parents.

"Gabby what happened."Troy said looking all over the room then at her."You're right in time, for me to tell George I want a divorce."

"What?!"George yelled along with almost everyone else.

"You heard me.Im so fucking tired of you! I don't care anymore! You know what, you may be a dam lawyer you may be wealthy and you may have a lot of credits, but there's one thing I know. You're the biggest jerk I've ever met."

"Gabrie--"Her father started but she cut him off.

"Don't dad!You never cared if I was happy or not."

"That's not--"

"That's bull. You never cared about my feelings it was always about George!He was your perfect son.He was your favorite. You never cared about what I wanted! I never mattered to you!"Gabriella said crying.Mr.Montez looked at his wife with guilt written over his face as both looked at their crying daughter.She was about to fully break down when she felt Troy squeeze her hand in support.

"Gabr--"

"im not finished!"Gabriella screamed.Sure she was an emotional wreck but she was going to let everything out one way or the other.She had to.

"No one ever thought about me! No one cared that i've been miserable and mentally abused for THREE years!! It was all about every ones perfect lawyer. But you know what? It's my turn to speak out and i'm through.I want a divorce NOW."She finished.

"Gab--"Mr.Montez was interrupted again but this time by Troy.

"Come on."Gabriella turned to face Troy."Get your stuff.You're staying with me tonight."Gabriella nodded as she walked up the stairs with him following.

"Oh no she's not!"George said as he started to make his way to the stairs.

"Leave her alone!"troy said going back down the steps.

"No!"George said as he grabbed Gabriella's arm. "I said leave her alone!"Troy yelled punching George square in the jaw."Oh my god!"Mrs.Smith yelled as her son grabbed his jaw.

"That was for threatening me at my job! And this is for what you've done to Gabriella!"Troy yelled as he was held back by both Mr:Montez and and Mr.Smith.

"Troy don't!"Gabriella yelled as she grabbed his arm,knowing very well what a former jock with top notch basketball skills could do.Troy stopped and looked at her.

"It's not worth it."Sensing she didn't want any violence, Troy nodded as they made their way upstairs and Gabriella packed. When they returned down stairs, the pair found all eyes on them, with the mothers tearing and the father's showing no emotion.The house was dangerously silent."Let's go."Troy said as he held Gabriella's hand as they made their way out the door and into Troy's car."Thank you."Gabriella said when they finally got to Troy's house.Troy's smiled don't worry about it."He responded as the two sat on his couch.

"May I say again, you're house is so much more homey."Gabriella said as he laughed."Im just glad you're feeling better."He said draping his arm over her.

"Thanks to you."Gabriella said smiling.At that moment Troy couldn't hide it anymore."Gabriella?"

"Yeah?"

"I love you."Gabriella stopped as they locked eyes.

"Im sor--"Troy was cut off by Gabriella immediately kissing him.

"I love you too."She said as they broke apart.Troy smiled."Why don't I help you unpack?"
