-Chapter 20: I'll Be Home for Christmas
(December 20, 2008-5AM. Los Angeles.)
"Is this the last bag baby girl?" Greg asked his daughter as he picked up one of her many overly stuffed red custom made Louis Vuitton suitcases. He looked up at his daughter who was dressed in her satin pajamas (so she was more comfortable on the plane) with a smile.
"Yep. Let's go." Gabriella said as she pulled Troy's letterman jacket tighter on her.
"Lets," Greg said as she rolled her suitcase with one hand and looped his arm with Gabriella's with a soft smile.
"I'll see you sometime soon! I promise!" Gabriella said as she hugged all the Lakers and their families tightly before she got onto the plane with Sharpay, Derby, Inez and Greg.
"Bye Gabi! We love you! Merry Christmas and Happy New Years!" The Lakers and families all yelled back with sad smiles, but not as sadly and loud as Kobe and his family, Shaq and his family, and MJ and his family.
(Albuquerque, New Mexico-The Boltons' House)
"At least your not stiff anymore," Jack said tiredly at 6AM in the morning.
"Whoa! Dad you scared me! What are you doing up?" Troy asked his dad.
"Thump, thump, thump, swish. Yeah! Thump, thump, thump, swish. Sweet," Jack said with a bright tired smile.
Troy scratched the back of his head behind his ear, like he always did when he was nervous and said, "Sorry."
"So I take it your happy that Gabriella's coming home?" Jack asked his son as he picked up the basketball and dribbled it before swishing it in the net. He smiled at his son who passed the ball back to him, laughing he passed it back to his son, before they began to keeping passing between each other.
"Oh yeah! Go I've missed her so much! This week!" Troy exclaimed to his dad with a bright smile on his face.
"I bet you did. Your mom missed her too. She's awake, she's in the house. As soon as she woke up, she squealed and shook me awake and was like…" Jack said before he got interrupted.
"Gabriella's coming home," Lucille said as she walked up behind her husband and son with a bright smile on her face that her son got from her.
"Hiya mom!" Troy greeted him mom happily passing the ball to his dad before he picked up his mom and spun her around causing her to giggle and Jack to laugh at his son and wife.
"Hiya back to you son!" Lucille greeted her son as she got on her tip toes to kiss his cheek.
"I love you momma," Troy said as he kissed her cheek and hugged her.
"I love you too, baby. So much," Lucille told her son before they both pulled Jack into a hug to share a family group hug.
(On the plane…in the air)
"Aw! Look at this!" Inez told Derby and her husband as she looked at Sharpay and Gabriella cuddled up together sleeping with soft smiles on their faces, both of them wrapped in the protective arms of their best friend/sister knowing they were safe and soon to be home in the one they love's arms.
"Its so cute!" Derby said as she and Inez pulled out their cameras and began to snap some photos of the chocolate brown haired and blonde haired girl.
"Inez, Derby, let them sleep.'' Greg told them both gently, but soon quickly backing off after he got glares from them. So that's were they get their evil glares from, Greg thought shaking his head.
(Albuquerque, New Mexico- With Troy and Zeke)
"I can't believe the girls come home today!" Zeke said as him and Troy jogged in the park, the favorite one they loved to go to with their girls.
"I know! I can't either! I've missed Brie soooooo much!" Troy exclaimed with a bright smile as they waved to people they knew or didn't know.
"I know! Me too! My mom said that I probably have a high bill because I was on the cell with Sharpay every hour," Zeke told Troy with a chuckle and a bright smile.
"My parents said the same thing to me. Its funny how great parents think alike," Troy replied.
"That it is. What to go to STARBUCKS and grab some coffee and warm up?"
"You bet. Let's go! I'll race you!"
(In the air…on the plane…7AM)
"Baby girl, honey do you want some breakfast?" Greg asked his daughter as he gently shook her awake.
Gabriella smiled and nodded her head before yawing and waking Sharpay up with a smile.
"Good morning. What can I get you girls?" The stewardess asked Gabriella and Sharpay.
"Bacon, eggs, pancakes and a cup of hot chocolate please," Gabriella replied with a soft smile at the stewardess who smiled and handed Gabriella her breakfast after she put down the foldable table.
"And for you dear?" The stewardess asked Sharpay with a soft smile.
"I'll have a strawberry yogurt, pancakes and a cup of hot chocolate please," Sharpay told the stewardess.
"There you go dear. Tell me if either of you need anything else. Okay?" The stewardess asked them with a soft smile.
Gabriella and Sharpay nodded their heads with soft smiles before clicking their glasses of hot chocolate together and with a giggle they said, "To us for soon we will be in the arms of our boys."
(Albuquerque, New Mexico-The Boltons)
"Mm, that smells good momma," Troy said as he walked into the kitchen after taking a shower and getting dressed in navy blue Aero polo, a pair of light wash Aero jeans and a pair of black slip on VANS.
"Why thank you baby. Here's your plate, everything just the way you like it," Lucille told her son with a soft smile as she put the plate of bacon and ham & cheese omelet in front of him with a glass of hot chocolate also.
"Thanks momma," Troy said with a soft smile before him and his parents began eating their family breakfast.
(In the air equals on a plane- 8AM)
"So what things did you come up with for Christmas?" Sharpay asked Gabriella.
Gabriella smiled and showed Sharpay her paper. On Gabriella's paper it read:
Christ
Happy Holidays
Reindeer
Icicles
Stockings
Trees
M
Angels
Silent Night
"That's cute Brie-Ella!" Sharpay said after she finished reading it.
"Thanks. Let me see yours," Gabriella replied and smiled as Sharpay handed Gabriella her paper with a smile. It read:
Christ the Lord, Our Savior is Born
Hark the Angeles We Heard on High
Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer
I'll be Home for Christmas
Santa Claus is Coming to Town
Twelve Days Before Christmas
Merry Christmas
Away in a Manger
Santa Baby
"Aw now that's cute! Using Christmas songs to do it!" Gabriella exclaimed.
(Albuquerque, New Mexico- The Boltons)
"That's cute mom! Brie's going to love it!" Troy said as he helped his mom wrap the gifts she bought Gabriella. Troy smiled down at the outfit his mom got Gabriella from Charlotte Russe, which consisted of a black ruched twill jacket, an adorable white floral satin v-neck spaghetti strap top, a dark washed splatter paint mini skirt, a pair of black belted wood wedges, a black layered rhinestone necklace, a set of black beaded hoop earrings, a black enamel banded bangle, and a black metallic patent leather clutch.
"Thanks baby. But this is only of the many," Lucille told her son with a bright smile.
"Momma, you do know she loves you no matter what, right?"
"I know. But I love shopping for her! Its so much fun! It's like shopping for a daughter I never had! But hopefully I will soon!" Lucille replied with a hint in the last part of the reply.
"Maybe," Troy said with a nervous smile.
(Oh. Air. Oh. Airplane-9AM)
"Hey Shar-Bear?!" Gabriella exclaimed with a smile on her face.
"What?!" Sharpay replied back.
"Ho!"
"Ho!"
"Ho Ho!" Gabriella and Sharpay said together before they burst out giggling.
Greg chuckled at the two teens as Derby and his wife giggled at their daughters.
"Ho ho! Ho ho! Jolly Old Saint Nicholas goes…ho ho!" Sharpay and Gabriella sang together as they rocked from side to side, their arms on each other's shoulders.
(Albuquerque, New Mexico- The Boltons)
"DAD! MOM! COME ON! I WANT TO BE THERE BEFORE HER PLANE LANDS! AND WE'RE NOT IF YOU DON'T HURRY BECAUSE I ALSO NEED TO MAKE A STOP ON THE WAY THERE! SO STEP ON IT!" Troy yelled up the stairs to his parents, annoyed.
"We're coming! We're coming! Hold your horses son!" Jack told his son as him and Lucille came down the stairs.
"I don't have any horses dad," Troy shot back before he walked out to his dad's SUV and got in the back seat waiting for his parents who were just now walking out of the door.
(On the plane….now on the ground)
"Ladies and Gentlemen welcome or welcome back to Albuquerque, New Mexico," The captain said through the intercom as they landed at Albuquerque International Airport.
Everyone cheered and quickly gathered their stuff to get off the plane, but not as quick as Gabriella and Sharpay who quickly grabbed their carry on bag and bolted off the plane, literally, as their parents just shook their heads at the two girls with smiles, knowing exactly where they were heading in such a quick hurry.
(Albuquerque, New Mexico- ANM International Airport- with Troy and Zeke)
"Hey man! I see you got the same idea as I did," Troy said as he spotted Zeke holding a bouquet of Sharpay's favorite flowers, pink roses.
"Yeah, I guess so." Zeke said as he smiled at Troy and the bouquet of lilies, Gabriella's favorite.
Flight 1414 from Los Angles has just landed, passengers can be met at gate 3232.
Troy and Zeke smiled as they heard that announcement and turned toward the tunnel to watch for their girls.
(With the girls…now in Albuquerque, New Mexico)
"I can't believe we tripped!" Gabriella said giggling after her dad helped her and Sharpay up after they fell flat on their backs, from running on a sheet of black ice.
"I know! But that's not a problem right now! I could care less about if I ruined my UGG boots! I just want to see Zeke! Now let' go women!" Sharpay said as she grabbed a giggling Gabriella's arm and they both jetted through the tunnel and to their guys.
"THERE THEY ARE!" Both Zeke and Troy exclaimed as they pointed to the entrance of the tunnel and saw their beautiful goddesses.
"THERE THEY ARE!" Both Sharpay and Gabriella exclaimed before they dropped their bags and everything in their arms and ran straight to their boyfriends while yelling their names as the boys did the same.
"ZEKE!"
"SHARPAY!"
"TROY!"
"GABRIELA!"
The parents, at both ends, smiled as each teen was reunited with their one true soul mate.
"God! Brie! I missed you! Never leave me again!" Troy said as he picked her up and spun her around causing her to giggle through her tears before her lips crashed onto Troy's and they shared a passionate kiss, the first one in a week.
"Never ever!" Gabriella said as they pulled back and then connected their lips again.
"I love you so much! I was getting a little worried last night and this morning that you weren't going to be home for Christmas!" Troy told her before they kissed again.
"I told you…I'll be home for Christmas," Gabriella said before their lips crashed together again.
