A/N Woo! Thanks for all the great reviews! Seemed like everyone liked the last chapter. By the way, this is the LAST chapter!
Gabriella started coughing, almost choking. Eric was confused and didn't understand.
"Gabriella? Are you ok?"
"Yea…I just thought you said you love Sharpay Evans…"
"I did. I do. Why? Do you know her?"
"Know her? Eric I went to high school with Sharpay."
"Not…my Sharpay…"
"Yea…and I don't think she's yours. I was at the restaurant with her. It was a big reunion Troy planned."
"Great so you can talk to her for me?"
"She's married. And by the way…Were married with one child and another one on the way."
Eric didn't like to think about it. It was getting too complicated. He was de pressed enough that the girl he ever truly loved was already married. 'Maybe she doesn't love this Zeke guy. Maybe she still loves me.' Eric was satisfied with that sanario.
"Well, what should we do?"
Gabriella thought for a second. "We could always get a…divorce. And share custody of the kids."
"Hmm….ok." Eric agreed. He was happy to get out of his marriage. He was truly unhappy. Maybe this could be his chance to win Sharpay over.
Before they knew it, it was already morning. The sun was rising. Gabriella remembered Troy was leaving today. She immediately called Taylor to find out if they were still there.
Taylor rolled over in her bed and answered the phone. "Hello?"
"Taylor? Its Gabriella."
"Hey, I was just gonna call you. Look Chad called me at like 4 in the morning and filled me in on everything. I really think you should work things out with him, so I don't have to get out of bed and do it for you."
"Look just tell, me are they still here?" Gabriella was in no mood to here the long story that Taylor offered to tell her.
"Yea…they have 8 am workout. They leave at 5 (pm)
"Thanks." She hung up with Taylor on the other line.
Gabriella turned to face Eric.
"When do they leave?" He knew that she truly loved this man.
"5"
"So you have a little while."
"Yes I do. Which is why I'm going to call Sharpay. You should meet with her. Work everything out. See if she still loves you."
"Gabriella, I don't know. It just sounds like I'm setting myself up for a heartbreak."
"You can at least try."
"…Okay…."
"Great! I'll call her."
Gabriella hit the phone once again and called Sharpay.
"Hello?"
"Hey Sharpay. It's Gabriella."
"Hey girly! What's up?"
"Not much. Listen I was wondering if you could meet me at that restaurant…?"
"Yea I'll meet you there."
"Okay."
She hung up the phone and looked at Eric.
"It's a go!"
They drove to the restaurant. Gabriella suggested Eric stay in the car until motioned to come in. Sharpay was already sitting down.
"Hey!" Gabriella used a cheery hello.
"Hi."
Gabriella sat down and started talking to Sharpay.
"Remember how I told you I was married?"
"Yea…"
"Does the name Eric Butler bring back memory's?"
"Too many." Sharpay was not smiling.
"SHARPAY! That's my husband!"
"The…Eric Butler…My Eric…Collage Eric…?"
"Yeah."
"Where is he?" Sharpay had a shaky voice.
"In the car."
Sharpay looked out the window to see a hopeful Eric sitting in the passenger seat. She turned back to Gabriella. Gabriella quickly glanced up at the clock.
"Oh my gosh. Sharpay I have to go. I brought Eric to talk to you. Work things out. And if you don't love him, and love zeke, maybe you can be friends."
"Ok…."
"Sharpay, it'll be ok."
Gabriella ran out the door and kicked Eric out of the car. Eric walked in the restaurant and sat down with Sharpay.
"Sharpay…" All Eric could think about was her pretty blonde hair and twinkly eyes.
"Eric….I don't love you. But can we still be friends?"
"Yeah. I'd like that a lot."
Meanwhile
Gabriella was rushing to the airport. She must have been going 80mph. She looked at the clock on her dashboard. 4:45. she saw the exit for the airport. She was so desperate to get there. Then it started to rain. Followed by thunder and lightning. This made her go even faster. When she finally pulled in she saw the team getting out of the shuttle bus and entering the airport.
"Troy, Troy!" Gabriella was cold, wet and was screaming running across the parking lot.
Troy turned around and saw a wet Gabriella running towards her. He immediately dropped all his luggage and ran out to her
"Troy! Troy" The teammates were yelling for him, but he just ignored them.
He ran up and faced Gabriella.
"Troy, I love you."
He kissed her. It was like no kiss she had experienced before. Everyone watched as troy and Gabriella made out in the rain. When they were finished she looked up at him.
"Don't go."
"Gabi, I have to."
"But, but." She started crying.
Troy wiped away her tears. "I'm not going unless you're coming with me."
She smiled and kissed him. He wrapped his arm around her and they walked in the airport and boarded the plane.
A/N well that's it. Did you like it? I'm thinking of making a sequel. Tell me what you think.
