Chapter 25
It's the day of Gabriella's granddad's funeral. It has been a day since Gabriella was sick and three days since Troy and Gabriella arrived in Albuquerque. It is the first time Troy has seen his parents and Casey on this visit.
"How long have you been in Albuquerque?" asks Casey
"3 days" says Troy
"And you haven't been to see me Gabs" says Casey
"I had a stomach bug" says Gabriella
"Oh and where have you been Troy" says Casey
"I was looking after her" says Troy
"Oh" says Casey
As they are walking up the path to the church Gabriella slips and lands on the path on her ankle.
"You ok Brie?" asks Troy helping her up.
"Yeah" says Gabriella
Gabriella continues up the path slightly hobbling.
When they get up to the church Troy has had enough of Gabriella's limping.
He picks her up and she squeals.
"Troy put me down" says Gabriella
He sits her down on a pew in the church and bends down and looks at her ankle, she winces as he touches a tender spot and yanks her ankle from his hand.
"Casey here are my car keys can you get the first aid kit out of the boot?" asks Troy
"Sure" says Casey taking the car keys and running out to the car.
Casey come back with the first aid kit and Troy bandages up Gabriella's ankle and helps her stand up.
"Feel better?" asks Troy
"A little thank you" says Gabriella putting weight on her sore ankle and gasps and sits down in pain.
"Brie" says Troy
"It hurts" says Gabriella
"Come on the funeral is about to start let's get you to your seat" says Troy helping Gabriella up to the front of the church and to the front pew.
"What about you are you not sitting with me?" asks Gabriella
"I never meet your granddad I can't I'm not family" says Troy
"But you're my boyfriend" whispers Gabriella "I need you"
"Brie I'll still be here I'll just be sat with my family a little way back" says Troy
"No" says Gabriella
"I have to sit down and get your weight of your ankle" says Troy
"What are you trying to imply?" asks Gabriella
"Nothing" says Troy
"Really" says Gabriella hands on her hips which is slightly ruined when someone pushes back the two and knocks into Gabriella who winces and the knock hits her ankle against the pew.
"You ok" says Troy
"Why would you care?" sneers Gabriella
"Because you know I do" whispers Troy
"Go and sit down Troy and leave me alone" says Gabriella
Troy goes and sits down his mum asks him if he's ok he answers that he is fine.
Meanwhile with Gabriella and her Granma.
"And you and that lad fighting?" asks her Granma hopefully
"No one's fighting it's not your business" says Gabriella
"It is I dislike the lad I don't like you to living together or being together he isn't catholic and only wants one thing and with what your wearing I assume he has got it" says her Granma
"You don't know anything about my relationship with Troy so don't go assuming things and accusing me of things that aren't true" snaps Gabriella
"Don't talk to your Granma in that tone" says her mum
"You know what I'm out of here I can stay here with either of you hate my boyfriend your accusing me of being a slut I'm going home" says Gabriella and walks out of the church.
"Where's Gabriella going?" asks Casey "Troy" she says as Troy runs out of the church after Gabriella.
Troy finds Gabriella crying her eyes out.
"Brie hunny come here" says Troy scooping Gabriella into his arms and sitting down with her in his lap.
There's silence as Troy tries to no avail to get Gabriella to calm down which she doesn't.
"Troy I want to go home I can't be here anymore" says Gabriella
"It's your granddad's funeral babe you need to be he would want you here no matter if your family was torn in to over us at the moment" says Troy
"But my mum is going to hate me and side with her mum who already hates me because I going out and living with a Non Catholic who only wants one thing and with want I'm wearing he's already got it and is going to be out the door as soon as he gets bored" says Gabriella
"I know I heard" says Troy
"Then if you heard does that mean Casey heard" says Gabriella
"She might of she was talking to mum at the time" says Troy
In the church.
"No Revered Mosby you can start I don't think my granddaughter or her boyfriend are coming back" says Gabriella's Granma.
"What did you just say about my brother?" asks Casey
"He's her boyfriend" says Gabriella's Granma
Casey turns on her heel and storms out of the church and sees Troy and Gabriella sat on a bench down the path with Gabriella sat on Troy knee.
She strides over to them and ….
