AN: Just a warning, there is some sexual content in this chapter. For those who don't want to read it or don't feel comfortable reading it, I will warn you when it starts getting close, but please, read with discretion. However, there are some - I think - very emotional, and somewhat important parts in the sex scene, so yeah. Thanks.

Summary: Gabriella's engaged to Eric Mitchell. He treats her great in public … But what about behind closed doors? What does she live with everyday? Troyella.

I Want Out

It had been five and a half hours since they had left Troy's house. And after countless games of I Spy, Gabriella was beginning to get bored; they had been sitting in complete silence for the past half hour, and Gabriella was dying for something besides silence, like a conversation. And she had a question.

"Hey Troy?" He nodded for her to continue. "Uh, where are we going, exactly?"

Troy's answer was short, and strictly to the point, "Colorado."

"Oh ... Why Colorado?"

"I don't know, it just seemed to be the place. We both haven't set foot in that state before, it's still close to New Mexico, but not too close. Plus, if he does find us there, it isn't a flat state. We can hide in the mountains." Then he added jokingly, "You know, so no one will find us. And I mean no one, so I can finally release all the built up tension in my body ... if you catch my drift."

Gabriella rolled her eyes, then said, "Oh God, Troy. You are such a man."

"You got that right," he gave her a charming smile. "In fact, you of all people should know that," he added with a wink.

"Oh brother," she muttered. "Anyway, why didn't you tell me where we were going at the house? Like, when you first figured it out? Or even when we were leaving?" Gabriella questioned.

"I didn't want Eric to overhear us."

"What?!" Gabriella almost fell out of her seat. "You mean he was there? At your house?"

Troy looked at her, alarmed. "No! I just mean, in case he was there, like waiting for us. I didn't want him to know where we were going. If he was there, it would have been bad enough that he heard where we weren't going."

"But, if he was there, wouldn't that mean he had a car? And that he could follow us?" Gabriella was panicking now, looking out the windows, making sure no one was about to pounce on the vehicle.

"No, I doubt he was a car. I mean, he's on the run now. His picture is on the news, there are reports on the radio him, ads in the newspaper. It would be nearly impossible for him to just wonder around Albuquerque, or anywhere in New Mexico, in his car. Plus his car was taken away, along with the house. No, I think, that if he's on the move, it'll be a very clever plan; very secret."

"Well, okay then, Mr. Detective, sir!" Gabriella laughed.

"Hey, you asked, baby," Troy defended.

"What city in Colorado are we going to stay at?"

"Talk about change of subject ... Um, that part, I hadn't really decided on yet. You have any place in mind?"

"Dinosaur!" Gabriella shrieked.

Troy swerved the car as he yelled, "What?! Where? I don't see anything!"

At this Gabriella started laughing hysterically, while Troy was still looking up, down, left, right, and under trying to find what she was talking - or laughing - about. After a while, Troy gave up on trying to find the object of his girlfriend's attention, and went back to driving.

Finally, after what seemed like hours to Troy, but was only a couple of minutes, Gabriella stopped laughing, but was still gasping for breath. "I meant Dinosaur as in the city, Genius. Not the reptile! Oh my gosh; that was hilarious."

Troy looked at her funny, "There's a city, in Colorado, called Dinosaur?"

"Uh, yeah. Didn't you pay attention in Geography in high school, Troy?"

"Well, yeah. But that was like 40 gazillion years ago. And I didn't get an A+ in that class like you, I got a B."

"Yeah, okay. Anyway, it's in the North of Colorado, right by the border of Utah."

"Okay, that sounds safe. Any idea how long it will take to get there? Or how far it is?"

"I think it's about 570 miles, so 918 kilometres. Following the speel limits, and hoping we don't have to take any detours because of construciton and such, it would probably take about ten hours to get there. But the best way to get there would be to go north into Colorado, but then go left into Utah, continue North for a bit, then go back into Colorado, and north again until we reach Dinosaur."

Troy looked at her, astounded. "How in the world do you know so much?"

"I payed attention in school, Troy. I thought it might come in useful someday; and look! It has."

"God, brains and beauty. How did I get so frickin' lucky?" Troy asked himself out loud.

Gabriella felt her cheeks heat up, and by the sound of Troy laughing, she knew she was blushing like mad. "Troy, stop it."

"No," Troy stated flatly. "You're my girl, and I love you. I have to show you how special you are. Besides, you need to hear it because Er..." Troy trailed off.

"Troy you can just say it. Because Eric never treated me special. We both know it's true. There's no point in denying it."

"Okay, fine," Troy started. "I feel the need to make you feel absolutely wonderful because you went through a long period when you felt like shit. No one deserves that, especially you. I just wish I had seen the signs sooner. I mean, I'm your bestfriend - now your boyfriend - if I don't know what's going on with you, then who does? I'm the one who's supposed to look after you. I should have noticed what was happening sooner than I did; you could've died anytime. It could've gotten out of hand..."

"Troy..." Gabriella whispered, almost choking on the effort not to cry.

"Don't start arguing. It's true, and you know it.," Troy said tersely.

"No, it's not. It's no one's fault. Except Eric's. You need to know Troy, no one blames you. You saved me, Troy. If it weren't for you, I'd probably still be there. I didn't have the courage to do anything about it. You know what I thought about everyday, Troy? Do you?" Troy shook his head. "The thought that got me through everyday was you. I've always loved you Troy. I never stopped. Ever since high school when we broke up, even though I might have seemed okay with it, I was always depressed, however deep down it was. I missed you, Troy. I wanted you back, and I never knew how to say it! I love you so much, and I never want to be with anyone else, because you're the only person who can make me feel like I do. Just so special and wanted; so cared for. And I'm so sorry that I waited so long, that you had to go through all of this with me, and that you feel so bad, but I don't blame you at all." Gabriella was in tears now, trying to get her point across to Troy as they drove north down Highway US-491 passing through Cortez.

Suddenly, Troy swerved into a parking lot, Gabriella noticed the name Grizzly Roadhouse B & B, and pulled Gabriella out of the car. Alarmed, she let herself be dragged out of the car and into the building. Once inside, Troy walked briskly over to the check-in desk and asked for a room.

"Yes, we do have a few rooms up for grabs. May I ask how long you plan on staying?" The lady, her name tag read Shelly, asked them with a smile.

"Oh, just one night. We've been on the road for hours, we want to rest for a while," Troy replied.

"That's just fine." Troy gave her his credit card, and Shelly gave them the key card for their room.

"Thanks," Troy grabbed Gabriella's hand and dragged her down the hall towards their room. Shelly flashed her a knowing smile, then went back to her work.

Troy roughly shoved the key card into the slot and pushed the door open. "Troy ... what are you doing?!"

AN: Just kissing and making out.

Troy didn't answer, as he pushed her up against the door and kissed her passionately. Gabriella moaned into the kiss and wrapped her arms around his neck. Troy picked her up with ease, dropped her on the bed, then climbed on top of her. He lifted her shirt over her head easily, and her jeans followed right after. He slipped off his own jeans along with his blue plaid boxers, and lifted his shirt off his own body, revealing himself to her. Gabriella could hardly breathe ... he was just so ... perfect. He crawled back onto the bed and kissed her softly.

"What are you doing, Troy?" Gabriella asked, regaining a partial sense of her sanity, which had been lost in one of Troy's amazing kisses. Troy looked as though he didn't have any sense left in him as he turned his head to look at her.

"I needed to show you how much I love you. And that I've loved you since high school as well, and I regret ever not being with you, because being with you always seems so perfect. Please, Gabriella." She could hear the desperation in his voice, the need to show her (even though she already knew) that he loved her was so big, so real, that Gabriella could almost feel it coming out of his body. She didn't bother to say anything as he leaned in to kiss her again.

Troy's hand, which had previously been down at her waist, was now at her neck, as he kissed her, leaving her with yet another one of his marks on her skin. Gabriella tilted her head to the right and he continued to kiss her skin, covering her entire neck. His other hand, which was still at her waist, moved up her body to entangle itself in her long brown hair.

"Troy," Gabriella whispered after one of his long kisses. She pulled her mouth slightly away from his and lifted her hands to rest them on his shoulders. He stopped his motion of trying to kiss her and looked at her. She looked into his eyes and asked him, "Troy, what's really wrong?"

"I- I just…" he dropped his head to rest on her shoulder. Troy closed his eyes and stayed like that for a while. She could feel him getting stressed as his shoulders tensed up, and he lifted his head so she could see the sadness in the blue depths. "I just don't want to lose you again." Gabriella could feel him against her, almost waiting for a response. She was looking in his eyes, as he tried to fight tears, she was having a bit of a problem of trying to see in the darkness of the hotel room. Suddenly, she realised that he really needed this. If not only trying to show her that he really did indeed love her, but to feel that he had done his job in showing her that he loved her. The spontaneity of his actions just added up to one thing: his actions had to mean something bigger to him than it could ever mean to her.

"Okay, Troy. Do what you have to do," she whispered into the darkness. Those eight words brought a whole new feeling into his body, as he leaned down again and kissed her tenderly. His hands continued their journey around her body, releaving some of the built up tension of the long drive. Gabriella inhaled deeply, her lips coming in contact with his again. Gabriella felt his hands reaching everywhere, all over her body. Even though they had already had sex, she knew, deep in her heart, that she would be completely devastated if he suddenly changed his mind, deciding that he had been too 'girly' about this whole feeling thing. However, this thought left her mind in a matter of seconds as she felt his erection against her pelvis.

AN: Sex Scene Right Here.

Gabriella felt her throat closing, and struggled to breath as he played with her breasts in his mouth, and with his fingers. Her hands found his head once again and she played with the brown locks of hair with her fingers. Gabriella gasped as Troy's hands suddenly came in contact with her wet folds. His hands caressed her clitoris and the folds around it, her reaction being to gasp for breath feeling pleasure all over her body.

Troy could feel how wet she was, how ready she was for him. She was ready enough for him to do what he really needed, what he had to do to prove himself. And it made him extremely aroused to think that only he could make her feel like she was right now; so loved, so happy, so satisfied. Only he could make her scream out in her passion. And he knew it could never be the same with any other girl. No matter what, he secretly promised her, he would never do anything like this with any other girl. He would be loyal to her, right now, and for the rest of his life.

Troy continued to kiss her as she moved her own hands southward, to the place that was just begging for her touch. But he had to stop her, despite how much he wanted her to touch him. He could feel the heat radiating from her aroused body, and it took all of his self-control not to explode at the moment. Gabriella moved her hand around him and he felt her nails move over his back.

"Gab- Gabriella ... baby, stop," he stuttered, losing control, only for a moment, but letting out a repressed groan as tried to hold himself together, and almost failing as he looked into her passion-clouded eyes. "Please, just stop for a minute."

Gabriella could sense there was something he wanted to do, and he wouldn't go on until he had accomplished his task. "It's okay, Troy. Just do it. Do what you have to do. Really," she tried to convince him to hurry up as she kissed his muscular right shoulder.

"Okay," he said as her brought his hands down to her opening again. She kissed his shoulder again, waiting for him to continue.

Troy gently rubbed her clitoris again, and with a low moan from Gabriella, slowly glided his finder into her soft tunnel. He started pumping in and out with his finger, and soon after added a second finger. Gabriella began pushing very forcefully against his hand, and Troy was worried that she might hurt herself. He took his fingers out of her vagina, and rubbed her clitoris again. He moved his other hand to her lower back and brought her tightly against him, she groaned as she felt his erection against her once again, and kissed him deeply on his shoulder again.

He entered his fingers inside her again and was surprised when she came after only a few thrusts of his fingers. She then flipped him over rather quickly and grabbed his penis.

"I don't care if you're done or not, Bolton. I need to have you inside of me," Gabriella said as she sank onto him. Gabriella started bouncing on top of Troy, slowly at first, but gradually getting faster.

"Babe, you feel so incredibly good. It's insane!" Troy gasped as he thrusted up into her again. Gabriella was groaning and moaning with each bounce and thrust they gave. Only a few moments later, Gabriella's mind began to spin as she started jerking. The sensation sent Troy over the edge, he grabbed Gabriella, bringing her flush against him, kissed her squarely on the lips. Then, with one last thrust, came forcefully inside her bringing Gabriella with him.

They stayed like that for a minute, with Gabriella on top of Troy, him still inside of her. Finally, pulling out of her, he murmured, "Gabriella?"

AN: End sex scene.

"Hmm?"

"You are so gorgeous, and I love you so much," Troy said as he pulled the covers over them and around them.

Gabriella gave him a bright smile and snuggled up against him, "I love you too, baby."

"God," Troy started as he finally settled down against her. "You have no idea how lucky I am."

And they fell into a deep sleep, holding one another.

AN: Wow. That took me forever to write. Hours and hours were put into this chapter. I had to do a lot of research for a good place they could go. And then I figured out the exact distance between Albuquerque and Dinosaur. And the exact time it would take to get there. Now I'm tired!

Also, this is the first sex scene I have ever written, and I have no idea how it turned out. Or if I'm any good at writing this type of thing. I kept changing it around, adding and removing sentences and words. Please tell me if you thought it was good. It's just a lot of people have said they want more 'sex stuff', so I'm trying ... but I don't know.

I don't want this story to be based upon sex, so I think (if you guys like it) that there will only be a few sex scenes throughout the story.

Also, thank you for the amazing reviews! And thank you (some of you) for your ranting. I knew it would come lol and I'm totally okay with it, because I know you're pissed off at me for not updating. Anyway, my computer is being wiped clean in a few days, so it's probably going to be about a week until I can update again, unless I can write a quick chapter before we take it in.

I'm also going away the next two weekends, so that will prevent me from updating. I'll try to update at least once a week during the summer, but during the school year, it will be less.

Also, I have two stories going right now. I Want Out and For How Long?. Should I finish I Want Out before updating For How Long??Or should I update them both frequently? I am definetely more into this story (I have more inspiration), but if you want me to do them both, then I will try. It's up to you, so please let me know. I think that's all for now. Thanks.

Julie.
