Chapter 19 – Work this out
Gabriella opened her eyes as the sunlight floated in through the windows , her body still ached all over but she felt enveloped in a strange kind of comfortness and warmth , she looked around to see Troy's arm securely resting on her waist. Her eyes lighted up as she saw him lying next to her , his eyes still closed and his breath even falling gently on her cheek.
She drank in his features , she wanted to remember this moment as much as possible , just the feel of his arms around her like he was protecting her from the entire world , she breathed in his scent finding it heavenly and snuggled closer to him. She slowly got up and placed a soft kiss on his lips ,
" I wish I could have you Troy " she said to her herself as she watched him sleeping peacefully.
Her fingers slowly and carefully trailed on his face brushing his hair out of his forehead and gently caressing them .
" Troy " she said gently nudging him.
He murmured something in his sleep before pulling her closer to him.
She smiled again and again shaked him a little harder this time " Troy please get up ." she said.
Troy groaned " Mom please " he said pushing the pillow over his head trying to stop any external voice.
Gabriella giggled " Troy I am not your Mother." She said .At hearing her giggle Troy's eyes fluttered open and he soon extracted his head from beneath the pillow before getting straight up.
" Oh sorry " he said getting up and giving her a small smile.
" You are amusing really " she said smiling gently at him.
" Um How are you feeling now Gabi ?" he asked examining her.
Gabriella smiled again , it was one of the many qualities about which she admired Troy , he was extremely caring.
" I am better than before." She replied honestly.
" You want me to get you something ?" he asked her again.
She shaked her head " No I don't "
" Oh ok Gabi " he started trying to approach her cautiously " Can you tell me something ?"
Gabriella watched him and could tell by the tone of his voice the subject he was about to approached , she sighed " Troy I cant tell you who did this to me."
" Please Gabriella " he said holding her hands gently in his own .
She yanked her hands away " I am sorry I cant " she said getting up from the bed which caused her legs to hurt again.
As she was walking out , she noticed Troy still not stirring from his previous position staring intently at the floor.
" Troy ?" she inquired in a questioning voice trying to get his attention.
" Its him , Isn' it ?" he said darkly.
"Wh-What are y-you talking about ?" she asked acting as if she did not have any idea about what he was talking about.
Troy propped himself out of the bed walking in her direction , his eyes turning grey by the minute " You know very well what I am talking about Gabriella "
Gabriella cringed at his tone and at the fact that , he used her full name " Troy I – "
" Don't give me unreasonable explanations Gabriella " he stated firmly " Just tell me did Mark do this to you or not ?"
"I-I cant tell you " she said getting frightened with each passing minute , no she wasn't frightened of Troy but the reaction which she would get from him and worse if Mark attacked or harmed Troy in any way she would not be able to forgive herself.
" Yes or no " he asked with finality in his voice.
" Y-Yeah " she stuttered.
Troy banged his fist on the solid wooden furniture and his face turned turned red , his eyes turned and to an icy glare and his nostrils flared " That son of a bitch , I am going to kill him ." he growled before advancing towards the door.
Gabriella gently grabbed his arm stopping him in his way " Troy please"
He turned back , his face still showing signs of anger however his eyes softened up at seeing her " Please what ?"
" Don't do anything to him ." she said in a small voice.
" What ?" he said astonished " After what he did to you , you still want to protect that bastard ."
" Troy " she said yelling " You will not do anything to him." She said sternly.
" Listen Gabriella " he snarled angrily " He cant treat you like your personal property , he dosent have any right to treat you like this , he dosent deserve you , he is not right for you , he is just a bastard who I am going to kill right now.."
" Troy you wont step out " she said ordering him " And you wont do anything to Mark , he is my fiancé ."
" And he is treating you like shit " he said retorting.
" That's between me and him , you don't have to butt in between." She yelled with force.
Troy faced her angily " Shut up ! You don't know what is good for you , you are just acting as if nothing has happened."
" Nothing has happened " she mumbled turning away.
Troy grabbed her by her arms , he held her carefully and firmly at the same time " Nothing has happened? Nothing has happened ? You say nothing has happened ." he said his voice getting louder and louder with each sentence " He hurt you Gabi , he hurt you " he said his eyes boring into her brown ones.
" Why do you care ?" she asked in a whisper helplessly.
" It hurts me when he hurts you and so I am goin to.. " he said but was cut offby her-
" Don't you get it Troy!" she yelled in frustration throwing her arms up in the air " He is dangerous . He could harm, you " she said her eyes getting glossy " I don't want to lose you and I care about you as much as you do." She said finally collapsing into the floor and crying uncontrollably.
Troy rushed over to her and immediately wrapped her arms around her , she immediately relaxed into his warm embrace.
" Please Gabriella don't cry , you know I hate it when you cry." He said soothing her.
" I-Idont want to lose you." She said crying on his chest.
" I know , I understand." He said rubbing her arms up and down.
" Please don't go looking for him." She said facing him.
He gently wiped her tears way from her tear stained face by his thumb " Hey pls Gabi don't cry."
" Tell me you wont go looking for him." She repeated again whimpering.
Troy sighed " Ok ok I wont go, now shush stop crying"
" Thank you Troy " she said still trembling.
" You are welcome Brie " he said kissing her hair gently.
