"Nothing just how I can put a slide up there for the bridesmaid party" Gabriella said looking at the stair case

"Wow you still have that dream gabs just go to a hotel and act like a big kid watch a movie and have a pillow fight and get on the elevator and ride every level" Joe said going in the refrigerator and getting a soda

Gabriella went down to the game room and found no one then she headed to his room he was staying in and no one then went to the exercise room remembering her brother loved to work out and she headed up there and found him and Joe on the running machine with Jack Bolton on the bikes.

"Hello guys" Gabriella said

"Its only 4 and it doesn't take me long to get ready like you gabs" Kevin said

"It doesn't take me long either but its 4:03 now and we have to b there by 5" Gabriella pleaded with her brother who finally got of the treadmill and headed to his room to get dress

Gabriella followed her brother then they split up when she got to her room and headed to the shower after 10 minutes she got out and headed up to her lap top and got on iTunes and hit I got a crush on Obama to get ready to then headed to her closet and choose a black dress like the one in the movie breakfast at Tiffany's then she chooses a silver bag and black stilettos and then put a little lip gloss on then put her hair in a half pony tail living sum hair down. Gabriella looked at her self in the mirror and decide it would do for today she wasn't really a make up person but she decide that she would add a little for today so then after the check up Gabriella headed downstairs to find Kevin and Daniela talking

"Hey guys so K2 you ready troy will meet us there we just have to go" Gabriella said

"Fine lets go bye Danni will see you" Kevin said walking out with Gabriella

"Hey you'll be ok im right here" Kevin said

"Can you please move" Gabriella said

"Why so nice gab come on move out the way or I will sue" Kevin said

"Oh hello I have heard of you this must also be your brother" Mr. Johnson said

"Yes and lawyer and I see we are here to talk business" Kevin replied shaking his hand

"Yes we are may your client please have a seat" Mr. Johnson asked jesting his hands to the empty seat next to Troy which Gabriella took

"Ok Gabriella as you where informed that you were going to sign a contract were you not" Mr. Johnson asked

"Yes I was" Gabriella said

"Ok in the contract it states that when you get the divorce you keep everything Troy has given you and you will be set for a year to get back on your feet if you guys last a year the contract is broken" Mr. Johnson stated

"Ok" Gabriella said

"Can I see that" Kevin asked as he was reading the copy he saw several things he didn't like "no what's this talking about all the money that she spend from his account must be paid back with interest" Kevin said

"Robert no I told you she doesn't have to pay me back" Troy said

"Sorry that must have been in the wrong thing I must change that at once" Mr. Johnson said

"I hope so and now this where he will pay for her to stay on her own as long as she lives in L.A" Kevin added

"Oh yea if we do get a divorce I might not plan on staying in L.A" Gabriella said

"Ok then that is out any other changes" Mr. Johnson asked

"Umm no I think it will do but I would love for you to mail me a copy when your done" Kevin said handing him the contract back

"Umm I do I don't want him to pay for me to get back on my feet I don't want to seem like a charity case" Gabriella said

"Gabs this is big I would take it it's really in your favor" Kevin said trying to reason with her

"No I don't want that I want to get back on my own feet with out any help" Gabriella stated firmly

"Fine ok we want that to" Kevin said

"I shall have a new one for you after the wedding" Mr. Johnson pointed out

"Perfect can't wait and it was nice meeting you" Kevin said "me and my client shall go"

"Ok bye and again it was nice meeting you" Gabriella said shaking his hand and leaving out the door

At Home

"I swear he was Trying to cheat you out be snippy I knew a contract couldn't be that nice it would have to be catch and I caught it" Kevin said

"That's great sweetie you save Gabriella a huge bundle" Daniela said holding Jacob in her arms

"Hey so I guess you did save the day he was enforceful" Gabriella said

"Yea I know but gabs had one good deal and didn't want to take it" Kevin said

Yea I know but I didn't want that Kev but you did a good job" Gabriella said

"Im hungry now" Kevin said

"Ill order a pizza since you did such a good job" Gabriella said with a smile and going to the phone to order when she did someone was already on and it was Miranda talking Gabriella new it was wrong to ease drop but she had to see how to get on Miranda's side

"I swear it's coming near and he is marring that girl" Miranda said

"What's wrong with her" a voice said

"She just seems unruly now I have to say she is sweet and nice but she just isn't right for troy I mean her family is very loud and I don't think they know a salad fork between a dinner fork and I can tell they didn't grow up in high class I mean I thought my grandson was going to keep the bloodline after my son didn't I thought Troy would marry a girl from Harvard or one of the top colleges who exceeds in what she doesn't and not fashion magazine that my husbands great grandfather founded 75 years ago you know" Miranda said

"Ugh her family sounds like a low class life what's her dad do" the voice said again

"oh hell if I know I think he's a trash man if im concern and her brothers are wannabe lawyers and doctors I mean after jack married Lucille just because he knocked her up in high school and Troy is a bastard shouldn't have any affect on the fact Troy would listen to his father I mean my son has made mistakes in the past and Troy being the biggest not Troy himself but his mother she was coming to the house thinking she was smart cute girl but my son was suppose to go to college at Harvard and find his girl not high school but that's another story but I hope troy doesn't make the same mistake I mean I believe a model will do him good or actress shoot I would say Sharpay but that's flesh and blood just not this girl but again who am I to judge.

With that Gabriella gently hung up the phone with her brother asking did she order and her ignoring the question went upstairs to her room and sat on the bed with things running in her mind like how dare she think that especially about her family screw trying to win her over especially after you mess with her family just forget about being nice it was time for war.

"Gabriella" a voice that came from behind the door

"Come in" Gabriella said

"Hey" Lucille said opening the door

"Hi Lucille" Gabriella said thankful it was her

"Hey so I was just wondering how you were feeling troy told me what happen and how he was sorry how the lawyer was acting" Lucille said

"Im wonderful I have a question and I hope it's not too personal" Gabriella said feeling a lump in her throat

"Oh no shoot away" Lucille said

"Ok umm what age did you have troy" Gabriella said

"Oh umm well I had Troy very early I had him at 16" Lucille said

"Oh" Gabriella said

"But he was no mistake im happy he came what brought this up" Lucille asked

"Umm I accidently ear hustled on Miranda's convo and she's not real fond of me nor you" Gabriella said

"Oh I know she is just so ugh ever since jack married me she loves Troy and Tiffany to death but its me she has a problem with" Lucille said

"Yea I know" Gabriella said

"Don't let her get to you she's just old and bitter fight back and be strong" Lucille said

"Thanks Lucille you've been grand" Gabriella said

"Yea I know well lets talk about you your getting married soon like in three days that is so amazing and awesome so I heard your using your great grandmothers veil" Lucille said

"Yea it's a tradition in my family" Gabriella said

"That's great so what are you doing for the wedding shower" Lucille asked

"I want a kiddy party to express the big kid inside of me" Gabriella said

"Oh that must be really cool I heard you and Troy are going to Paris and you'll love it" Lucille said

"I hope so I've never been" Gabriella said

"Well you will well I better let you get back to planning" Lucille said walking out the room

Gabriella decide to walk around the house cause she couldn't think of anything else and she wanted to explore the rest of the house Troy really hadn't shown her so she headed to her room and went upstairs to the third level where it was really dark so she went to find the light switch and turned it on and saw three door she guessed that it was a place he didn't come up to a lot she opened the door and it had a lot of junk boxes after boxes and she guessed it was from the house owners before that lived hear so she went into the second door and saw the same thing except it was neater with a desk like an office or something then she went to the third room and it looked like a dance room with mirrors and ballet bars and it had a little opening to the roof like you could sit up there Gabriella thought it was so cute then she heard a cough and turned around to see troy

"Hey I see you found my hideaway when I try to get away from things" Troy said

"Yep it's nice but the dance room" Gabriella questioned

"No the roof top I like to be up there to think that's all" Troy said

"Oh cool" Gabriella said

"Yep I think you might like this room you took dance right" Troy asked

"Yea I did and I can play piano and speak three different languages Spanish English and French fluently I shall say" Gabriella giggled at the end

"Well I speak 2 French and Korean and working on Chinese's" Troy said

"Ok so who lived here before" Gabriella asked

"I have no idea it was some rich billionaire and his wife of 13 years they left there stuff here but I never looked" Troy said

"Cool well that's great can I check out the roof" Gabriella asked

"Sure why not" troy said

Gabriella went on the roof and saw how beautiful it was and how beautiful the view was

"Wow this is a good view" Gabriela said

"Yea I know its pretty cool" troy said

"What do you think about when you're up here" Gabriella asked

"Pretty much everything like if I had to do my life over would I have chosen this world or be a normal person would I have been such a jerk what can I do" Troy said

"Wow you do have a brain" Gabriella giggled

"You know I can push you off the roof right" troy said teasingly

"Oh right you better not though" Gabriella said

"Hmm I don't know I could have been stretching and not paying attention and you fall like this" Troy said grabbing her which mad Gabriella scream in fright

"Wow it was a joke I wasn't really going to let you fall" troy said

"Not funny Troy you nearly scared me to death" she said hitting his chest jokingly and climbing back inside the house and shut the door to the roof so he couldn't get in

"Gabriella im sorry let me back in" Troy begged

"No you need to think" Gabriella said laughing

"Gabriella I swear if you don't let me out I will" Troy said

"fine I will let you back in after lunch" Gabriella said walking out the room while laughing then coming back and laughing some more then opened the window back up

"I will give you 20 second head start" Troy said

"Oh im so scared" Gabriella said

"You should be 20, 19, 18…" Troy said counting

Gabriella decided to run just incase he was serious and ran down the stairs ad she heard his voice get louder he was on 15 then she was on the second level and decide to hide in one of the guest bedrooms in the big closet and turn the lights off

"oh Gabriella I know you are hiding some where your in one of theses rooms and you better have a good hiding space to" troy said opening the door to her room and checking all of the corners when he didn't find her he tried his room and still the same empty he tried 5 more rooms and empty all again

Gabriella was still hiding in the closet and heard his voice closer then before meaning he was about to open the door in her room or he was next door so Gabriella decided to stay and move farther out in one of the doors in the closet and put herself in it the best way she could which closed and fit her perfectly then she heard the door open

"oh Gabriella I know your in here you did pretty good at running" Troy said looking in the bathroom then under the bed then he walked in the closet "Gabriella come on out I wont hurt you badly" troy laughed he looked in the closet and still couldn't find her so he headed out the room then he heard a sneeze in the closet Gabriella silently cursed herself

"Gabriella is that you did you just sneeze" Troy said going back in the closet and still saw nothing so he thought it was just him so he went out the room and into another room when Gabriella heard the door shut she got out quietly and silently went out and looked out the door when she saw nobody she went out then started walking out but as she did troy was coming out the room also and saw her

"Gotcha" Troy yelled

Gabriella laughed and ran away the fastest she could but troy being the faster then her grabbed her by the waist and spun her around with that Gabriella laughed

"Ahh stop put me down" Gabriella said laughing

"Nope" Troy said throwing her over his shoulder

"Put me down" Gabriella said still laughing

"Let me think a no" troy said

"Ahh help me ahh" Gabriella said laughing then Miranda walked out

"What is all the fuss" Miranda said

"Oh hi grandma" Troy said

"What is going on" Miranda said

"We are playing "troy said putting Gabriella down

"Your way to old to be acting like two little kids" Miranda said looking at Gabriella

"Sorry gran will be quiet" troy said holding laughter

"Thank you" Miranda said going back I her room

"If it wasn't for her I would have tickled you to death" troy said

"Oh no" Gabriella joked

"You're lucky Montez" Troy said walking away

Gabriella just smiled and went to her room
