Last Time…

Troy spent the next hour having all sorts done to him. He had blood work done, a full physical check up and the doctor asked him loads of questions. Finally once the doctor had finished he told him he would go make his final conclusions.

About 10 minutes later the doctor reappeared and said,

"After taking into consideration all the results of your tests I have come to the conclusion that…"

Chapter Twenty Five

"…you are a perfect match. Your overall health is excellent and your blood type matches hers perfectly. I'll give you some time to really think about your decision." The doctor said. Troy would have let them cut him open right then and there but the doctor left before he could say anything. He walked back into the waiting room and found his family still sitting there waiting for him.

"Where are David and Christine?" he asked.

"They went to visit Gabriella." Mrs. Bolton said.

"Oh"

"So…?" Kayla asked anxiously.

"So I am a perfect match. They ran a whole bunch of tests and I match perfectly." Troy explained.

"That's great Troy. Whatever you decide to do we're right there behind you." Mr. Bolton said.

"Thanks I think I am going to talk to Gabi before I make my final choice." Troy said.

"Ok" Mrs. Bolton nodded.

Troy walked out of the waiting room and found his way to Gabriella's room. He knocked and slowly opened the door. Mr. and Mrs. Montez turned to look at him and smiled. After kissing their daughter they left, giving Troy and Gabriella some privacy. Troy walked towards Gabriella's bed and sat in the chair next to it. Her eyes were filled with pain and he could tell she was trying to hide just how much pain she was in.

"How are you feeling?" he asked gently.

"I feel better than I did at the game but I still hurt." She said weakly.

"Well at least you feel better. Listen there is something I want to talk to you about." Troy said.

"Troy, if it is about you donating one of your kidneys to me I can't let you." Gabriella said.

"Gabi I want to."

"No Troy I only have a few months to live anyway. If this doesn't kill me the Leukemia will." Gabriella said tears forming in her eyes.

"And I want you for as long as I possibly can." Troy said taking Gabriella's hand.

"But what if it doesn't work or what if something goes wrong?"

"I will work, I know it will. Gabi I love you so much and I want you to be with me for as long as humanly possible." Troy said wiping away her tears gently.

"Ok, thank you Troy. I don't want to die yet." Gabriella said sadly. Troy leaned over and kissed her forehead gently.

About a day later Gabriella woke up form the transplant. The first words out of her mouth were,

"Where's Troy? Is he ok?" The doctors assured her that he was fine and was just resting. However when she asked to see him they made it clear that she wasn't going to be seeing him for a while.

In Troy's room he said the exact same thing. All he wanted was to see Gabriella. That night Troy mustered up all his strength and snuck into Gabriella's room in the middle of the night.

Gabriella was lying awake in bed when she heard a knock at the door.

"Come in." she said softly. Her expression changed into a huge grin when she saw it was Troy standing in the doorway.

"Hey." He said softly.

"Hey."

"I've missed you." He confessed wheeling his IV closer.

"I've missed you too." She replied. "Troy you look tired come lie down." Gabriella said moving over so that there was room in the bed for Troy. Troy slowly climbed into the bed with Gabriella.

"I love you." She whispered.

"I love you too." Troy whispered back before they fell asleep in each others arms.

The next morning Mrs. Bolton walked into Troy's hospital room.

"Good morning Tr-Troy?" she said shocked. "Troy?" she asked looking around the empty room. Just then a nurse walked by.

"Um, where's my son?" Mrs. Bolton asked.

"Oh Troy is in room 207 with Gabriella. I think he snuck in there last night." the nurse explained.

"Yeah, that would be something he would do." Mrs. Bolton chuckled. On her way to Gabriella's room she bumped into Mrs. Montez, who was also headed for Gabriella's room.

"You'll never guess what my son did last night" Mrs. Bolton said.

"What?"

"He snuck into Gabriella's room. Or at least that what the nurse told me." Mrs. Montez laughed.

"I'm sure that made Gabriella very happy she missed his so much." Mrs. Montez explained as they walked into Gabriella's room. And sure enough there was Troy with his arms wrapped around Gabriella who was pulled close. They were still asleep with smiles on their faces.

"Aww." Mrs. Bolton cooed.

"We'll have to wake them now." The nurse said entering behind them.

"Please just give them a few more minutes I've never seen her look so happy in the hospital before." Mrs. Montez begged.

"Fine, 10 minutes." The nurse said leaving along with Mrs. Bolton and Montez. As the adults shut the door behind them Gabriella stirred in her sleep. She felt Troy's strong arms wrapped around her giving her a sense of security. She kept her eyes closed enjoying the moment as she felt Troy's warm breath on her neck. Soon Troy opened his eyes feeling Gabriella's petite body up against his. He could tell by the way she was breathing she was awake.

"Good morning." He whispered in her ear.

"Good morning." She whispered back turning over so that she was facing him. Their foreheads touched as they gazed into each other's eyes. The two stayed like that in complete bliss until the nurse came in and said,

"Ok 10 minutes is up. Let's get you back to your room Mr. Bolton."

Troy and Gabriella groaned. "Do I have to?" Troy said disappointed.

"Yes, come on let's go."

"Fine." Troy groaned. "Bye Gabi, I'll see you soon. I love you." He said.

"Bye Troy I love you too." Gabriella said. She sighed as she watched him leave.

Over the next few days every night Troy would try sneaking into Gabriella's room and Gabriella would try sneaking into Troy's but the nurses caught them every time. So now they would call each other on their cell phones and talk for hours into the night. Sometimes they would stay on the line all night with each other.

Finally another few days passed and after a week and a half in the hospital Troy and Gabriella were allowed to leave. However they were put on strict orders to stay in bed. Although Troy and Gabriella insisted that they would be fine on their own, their parents disagreed. Mrs. Bolton and Mrs. Montez insisted on caring for them.

A/N: I hope you enjoyed that chapter. For once I don't really have much to say. Except please review!!! Thanks again for reading.
