Troy's Purposal
Disclaimer: I own only the plot.
Once their shift was over, Taylor and Gabriella went back to Gabbi's apartment. It was 6:00, which meant she had to be reay in an hour. She got in the shower, got out, dried off, put on her robe, wrapped her hair in her towel, and walked into her room. She and Taylor started to pick her outfit. They chose jeans, a red shirt with black stripes, a black necklas, and black dress shoes. She took the towel out of her hair and blowdried her hair. They decided on leaving her hair down and left her natural curls in. She got dressed and sat down in front of her vanity set. Taylor did her make up (again natural colors). They finished at 6:50, so Gabriella brushed her teeth and read for the remaining 9 minutes.
All the while, Troy went home, showered, put on the same outfit he wore for Start of Something New, brushed his teeth, fixed his hair, and waited. When it was 6:50, he drove to Gabriella's apartment. He arrived at 7:00 on the dot. He had bought a dozen roses on the way. He knocked. She answered.
"Hey Troy." Gabriella greeted.
"Hey. You look...amazing." He couldn't keep his eyes off of her!
"You clean up nice too, handsome." She complimented. He handed her the roses.
"They're beautiful!" she exclaimed.
"Yes, but not as beautiful as you. I have another present for you." he said, taking out the locket from his pocket. She opened it. Inside was a mini picture of them kissing. She gasped. She loved every centimeter of it. He motioned for her to turn around and hold her hair up so he could put it on for her. She did as told. She told Taylor that she'd be back, and Taylor siad "I'll probably be here. Unless Chad wants to have fun tonight." They all laughed. Taylor left to go to her apartment and once in, Chad grabbed her and just began...making out really hard and fast...but passionately.
"It's good to see you to, Mr. Danforth." Taylor said.
"Well, I missed you Mrs. Danforth." Chad replied. (A/N: I might have forgotten to inform you early, but Taylor and Chad are married.)
Once they got a table at Ruby Tuesday, and ordered. Troy started talking about how much he cared for her. She started crying silently.
"What's wrong, love?" he asked her, feeling as if he hurt her.
"I just love you so much it hurts sometimes!" she sobbed. He went to her and hugged her. Maybe now is a good time...Troy thought. He took out a ring box, and knelt on one knee.
"Troy, what are you doing?" Gabriella said. All heads were turned their way.
"Gabriella Maria Montez, I love you with all my heart. So would you take the pleasure of making me the happiest man on the face of the Earth by marrying me?" He asked. He opened the box and was amazed.
"YES!" she screamed. He took the ring out of the box and slipped it on her finger. They both stood up and kissed while everyone clapped. When they broke away, Gabriella blushed. They sat down, and in an instant their food came.
"Congratulations." the waitress said. They ate, and paid. They walked outside and stood there for a minute, looking at the stars.
"They're beautiful." Gabriella said.
"Not as beautiful as the soon to be Mrs. Gabriella Bolton." Troy complimented. She blushed once again, and he cupped her chin, leaned in slowly, and kissed for a very, very long time.
"I love you so much Troy."
"I love you too Gabriella."
"So when do you want to start planning the wedding?"
"Maybe...Monday?" They were both free Monday. They decided to start the planning in Gabriella's apartment.
"Do you think we should let out parents know?" Gabriella asked.
"Yeah, we really should." Troy replied. They called their parents and let them in on the big news, and Troy drove Gabbi home. He decided to stay a few minutes. When they got inside, Gabriella checked the answering machine. There was a message left from Taylor.
"Hey Gabriella, it's Taylor. Give me a call back when you're back from your date with Troy. Bye." Gabriella called Taylor and told her to come over. Once Taylor was over, Gabriella and Troy told her about the engagement. As expected, Taylor squealed. Gabriella showed her the ring, and couldn't take her eyes off it. Chad came over, and Taylor told him. Chad acted like his wife, but sarcastically. Which earned him a smack on the head and a kiss on the cheek. Courtesy of Taylor of course. Once Chad and Taylor left, Troy and Gabriella walked to the couch and sat down, Gabriella in Troy's arms. They looked at each other for a few minutes, then kissed with so much passion it makes you want to "Awww" and kiss the nearest person near you. The kiss got deeper and deeper and before you knew it, Troy was lying on Gabriella caressing her every curve. Gabriella had her hands on his back. They broke away, and smiled and blushed at each other.
"Do you think it'd be okay if I crash here tonight?" Troy asked, once he got off her.
"Yeah it's ok. Are you too tired to drive, or just want to snuggle me?" She asked, laughing.
"Both actually." he said, laughing too. They went to sleep in each others arms, a smile plastered on their faces.
