So I was thinking about going to sleep before 2 AM tonight but as I was laying in my lil bed I thought
I want to write a fantasy
And of course I can't do that before ending this story can I?
Possible spoilers for those who haven't finished the amazing book, Breaking Dawn.

How do you know when your in love?
If you've never felt it before..how do you know that your right?
Maybe it's instincts...maybe not.
Maybe some people think their in love when their really not...maybe they are.
It's like when you taste a food for the first time in your life; it's great! It's your new favorite...but you don't know what the food is unless you've had it before. Unless someone tells you of course..but nobody can tell you that your in love.
Can they?

The trees passed by in a blur of green and black out of the dark cavalier's window. Gabriella sat comfortabley in the passenger seat, reading, the last installment of Twilight, Breaking Dawn. Not even Troy could get this book, that played with her emotions so much, out of her hands. She was just getting to the part where Jacob first see's Renesmee,
How did Bella know that she was in love with Edward? Was it just that flying feeling he gave her? Or was it the way his smouldering eyes could dazzle her without any effort at all?
Maybe both.
Troy rested in the driver's seat; Gabriella let him drive her car, with his hands ten-and-two on the stearing wheal as they passed one of the cop cars that attempted to hide in the trees. His eyes were firmly on the road, though the every seventh second that the human mind loses attention for less than a second, his mind went to Gabriella.
They were headed to the Regal Cinema to meet up with Taylor and Chad to see Pineapple Exspress. Gabriella and Taylor weren't keen on the idea of that movie but it was Chad and Troy's turn to pick.
Troy would have to forcefully take the book from Gabriella, without loosing her page for fear of certain death, and hide it where she would never find it until the end of the movie.
But his mind and eyes stayed on the road and Gabriella, for fear of harming the precious goddess in the opposite seat in an unlikely ten car pile up that would never happen with only two cars on the road.
Talk about protective. Or was it love?
Seconds turned into minutes and the black car stopped in the parking lot at the mall.
Quickly before Gabriella could expect it, Troy reached over and snatched the book out of Gabriella's hands. He stuck it under his arm, regardless to her protests.
"We are going to a movie Gabriella." Troy said patiently. "Not a book club. I'm sure Taylor will share your pain when we meet them inside." He finished with an eyeroll.
Gabriella poked her tongue out at Troy, earning a chuckle, before stepping out of the car and onto the pavement. She started towards the food court, which was directly next to the theater, with Troy falling into step beside her.
"At least I read." She retorted, rather weakly.
Troy smiled, it wouldn't hurt to let her win one would it? "Touche." He smirked.
Gabriella smiled her dazzling smile triumphantly and walked a little more confidently.
Troy's knees weakened for just a moment and he wabbled a bit when she smiled.
Gabriella waved enthusiastically to Taylor upon seeing the teen at a table. Taylor and Chad found their way over and smiled at the couple.
Chad looked Troy up and down and frowned, Troy smirked.
"You got off easy." Chad whined. "I got smacked!" He exclaimed, referring to the small red scratch on his hand.
"Surprise attacks, my friend." Troy reminded him.
"I still can't believe you to our books." Taylor stated and glowered at the boys, taking Gabriella's side.
"We won't even like the movie!" Gabriella added.
Troy rolled his eyes. "It'll be dark in the theater, and I doubt they'll like it if you bring a book light and read during to movie."
"And I don't think the other people trying to enjoy the movie would appreciate you two squealing everytime Edwin speaks." Chad continued.
"Edward!" The girls corrected in unision.
Chad just sighed.
"We can-" Gabriella was cut off by Troy.
"You're going into the theater Gabby. And your going to watch the movie." He smiled and wrapped an arm around her waist. "It won't be so bad."
"Yeah!" Chad agreed, doing the same to Taylor.
"Can I please have my book back?" Gabriella asked with her chocolate eyes wide.
Troy couldn't take his gaze off her face, he was lost in her eyes. "Your cheating..." He murmured.
Gabriella brushed her lips against his, teasing and reached for the book under his arm. So close...
"No way!" Chad jumped in and yanked the book from under Troy's arm and jumping atleast three feat from them. Troy snapped out of it and jumped back too.
"That's not fair!" Troy cried. "You cheated!"
Gabriella pouted. Taylor stood next to her with the same expression on her face.
Troy ran a hand through his hair and closed his eyes. "Please, don't make that face Gabby." He groaned. This girl didn't play fair!
Chad rolled his eyes. "It's love dude. Come on the movie is starting in twenty minutes, lets get good seats." He grabbed Troy's arm and pulled him into the theater, the girls following.
Love? Troy thought. Am I in love with her?
He didn't even notice as they took their seats and the movie began to play.
--
Everytime Troy touched her hand, Gabriella's heart fluttered. She payed little attention to the movie. She just looked at her boyfriend's dazed face.
What was he thinking about? She wondered. Troy eventually caught on to her staring and turned to look at her, his smile worth more than a million dollars. And his eyes, his eyes! Evertime the blue and brown met, butterflies swarmed in her stomach, and her knees went weak.
Something happened in the movie and the audience broke into roars of laughter. But Gabriella barely noticed.
Edward Cullen had nothing on Troy.
The only thing that broke Gabriella out of her trance was Troy's voice.
"Gabby." He chuckled. "The movie's over, time to go."
Gabriella blushed and realized that she had spent the whole movie staring at Troy,
He wrapped his arm around her waist once more when they headed back to the food court, and the butterflies returned. If Troy wasn't holding onto her she would have fallen flat on her face.
The rest of the night was a blur. Just some pizza, getting her book back and then falling asleep in Troy's bed after her mother was sound asleep.
--
How do you know when your in love?
Is it the butterflies that swarm when he/she looks in your eyes?
Maybe it's fate.
Maybe when you love somebody, an alarm goes off in your head that tells your heart to open up, and close only when that person is in complete control.
But no one person can completely control your heart.
Can they?

The next morning Troy was on one of his weekly phone calls with his mother. Though she gave custody to Ms. Montez, she still wanted to keep in contact with him. And though Lucy still wasn't Troy's favorite person, he was warming up to her.
"So how have you been Troy?" Lucy asked, trying to make convorsation.
"I've been good mom," Troy was starting to get used to the word mom "Great actually." He smiled. Another seven seconds, another flash of Gabriella.
"That's good!" She said happily. "And how is Gabriella?"
Troy's heart warmed, now this was something he could chat about. "She's fantastic! She finished a book yesterday...made me listen to her opinion about how she was kind of dissapointed about something or other in the end...and then we watched a movie." And fell asleep together on the couch. Troy thought, but didn't say it out loud.
"It sounds like your really happy there Troy." Lucy commented. But the dissapointment was apparent in her voice.
"Well..maybe me and Gabby could come see your sometime." Troy suggested, trying to make her happy.
"Gabriella too?" Lucy frowned at the other end. She liked Gabriella very much, but she wanted Troy.
"Well yeah...I mean, I don't think I could stay away from her very long." Troy's cheeks turned a bit red from embarrassment. Why was he telling her this?
"Young love.." Lucy murmured.
Theres that word again...
:"Yeah.." Troy breathed. "Well...I gotta go mom..dinner's ready..I'll talk to you later."
"Ok, bye sweetie, love you!" Lucy said into the phone.
"Yeah..me too." Troy stammered. Before laying the phone onto the reciever. He leaned against the wall with his eyes closed and sighed. Did he love his mother? Did he love Gabriella?!
He stayed there until two tiny arms wrapped around his waist and he could breathe in her scent.He smiled and wrapped his arms around Gabriella, kissing her forehead.
"Let's go get some food." Troy state and entwined their fingers before heading into the dining room where the food was all set out.
--
A few days later Troy found himself on a blanket with the most beautiful brunette in exsitance on his lap. They were in the middle of the park, and luckily they were alone. Gabriella had packed a small lunch and a picnic blanket before she and Troy walked to the park.
Troy had fed her small bits of food and she convinced him to let her do the same.
"Mmmm..." She breathed when he popped a fresh grape into her mouth. "These are really good!"
"Really?" Troy asked. He didn't know grapes tasted that good.
"Yep." She smiled and put her face to his. "Try it." She murmured before pressing her lips to his. Troy moved his hand to the side of her neck and pulled her closer, kissing back with as much passion as he could muster.
When the kiss ended, as both needed air, Gabriella could feel his hot breathe on her face and giggled when he whispered. "Delicious."
They lay on the blanket for a while, just enjoying eachother's company. Gabriella had pointed out various cloud shapes.
"Look! That one looks like a dog!' SHe giggled, her laughter sending thrills through Troy's body.
"Yep...that's definatley a dog." He laughed.
"And that one..." She breathed and pointed to the best of them all.
A single cloud lay apart from the others, swirls and twists embeded into its image. And at the bottom was a soft point, while the top held two large lumps.
"A heart" Troy concluded and Gabriella nodded.
Gabriella wiggled closer to him and entiwined their fingers.
"Troy?" Gabriella asked shyly.
"Yeah?" He asked, a little bit worried.
"I-I.." She stammered. "I love you.." She breathed and Troy's breath hitched in his throat. "You don't have to say it back..I just wanted you to know..." She began to ramble.
"Gabby." He cut her off. She turned to look at him and was almost surprised to see nothing but adoration in his eyes. "I love you too.."
She smiled and brought her lips down on his once more, this time not holding anything back.
Troy kissed her back with just as much love and passion and neither stopped, even when it began to rain, and lightning and thunder consumed the sky. They were in love, and no storm could ruin the moment this time.
This was their happily ever after

How do you know when your in love?
Is it instinct?
Is it fate?
Or is it the when everyone around you can see it, in your actions, and in your eyes and when that person controls your heart?
That's how you know when your in love.

Sorry if theres any spelling mistakes but its 2:30 AM, I've been writing for 2 and a half hours...Im going to bed ;D
I don't think there is a need for any epilouge. I'm not writing one...
So that's the end of "Waiting For A Storm" .
I'm really sad about that..but I'm extremely happy with how it ended.
And about the twilight and Edward stuff..I just finished reading the series and so I'm slightly obsessed...
So for those of you who have read Twilight series..can I ask for you opinion?
On a scale of 1 to 10..Troy and Edward. what do you rate em?
My rating is Troy- Ten Billion...Edward- Ten Billion and three.
Love 'em both..but Edward Cullen just has my heart.
what else...oh yeah..I wanna write a fantasy :D. I want to take my time on this one though..with lots of twists and all. So I'm going to write the entire story before I put it on fanfiction. when I'm about half way done I'll post a trailer and a date for when I will put it out...but until then there will be no real stories from me. But don't worry I'll have oneshots, songfics, all that jazz to let you know I'm still alive :D.
And lastly, THANK YOU to EVERYONE who revied, put me or the story on alerts, and favorites! I would have no inspiration for writing if you didn'! I really hope this story was worth reading for you and that you'll enjoy my stories to come!
