Troy sat there and stared up at this ceiling. He rolled over on his side to glance at the clock. 11:11. He sighed.
11:11. The time when most girls are wishing for a miracle. Screw miracles. Everytime I'm with Gabriella I think it's a miracle that we met, and most importantly, moved to Albequerque. But now I guess I was just lucky. A miracle would have been Chad surviving. A miracle would be me not having to worry about my best friend being stuck in a cold hard ground tomorrow.
He called Gabi. Troy watched the clock roll over. 11:12.
The time when half of the girls are still making their wish, because they either A. couldn't decide what to wish for or B. thye are still wishing. They want it all don't they? My wish? I want my god damn best friend to be alive. I want him to be breathing. I want that drunk driver to rot in hell.
She picked up her phone after several rings.
"Did I wake you?" Troy asked, forgetting what he was doing.
"No. I can't sleep anymore." Gabi said, still sounding wide awake.
"Yeah, me neither. Do you want to go for a ride?" Troy asked looking outside.
Gabi nodded, then realized she was on the phone and that he could not see her, "I'd love to." She laughed at herself.
"I'll be at your house in a few minutes. Bye."
"Bye." Gabi said faintly. She was upset. She hadn't gotten an 'I LOVE YOU' in the past few days.
Troy ran down the stairs. His dad was still up, reading the newspaper. "I can't be here any longer. I'm going for drive." Jack nodded, not looking up from the newspaper. Troy grabbed his keys and went outside. It was humid. He got in the drivers seat and drove to Gabriella's house.
The lights in her window signified to come out. She ran out in sweatpants and a hoodie, still in her slippers. "Nice shoes." Troy laughed as she got in the car. She looked down at the furry, red flipflops and laughed. She hit him upside the head playfully. Troy leaned over and kissed her on the lips. "I love you." He smiled.
This made Gabriella slap happy. "I love you too." She grabbed his hands and laced her fingers with his. He began to drive. He drove until he pulled over. Gabi looked around to find a playground. She laughed. Troy grabbed her arm and ran towards the swings, dragging Gabi along. He sat her down and began to push her. She laughed. He soon pulled her to a stop and began to tickle her. She struggled, but succeeded to escape his grip. She ran around the slide and such. He chased after her. And ofcourse, Troy being the allstar athlete that he is, caught up. He wrapped his arms around her from the back and swung her around. And just like the day in the gym after the practice that he missed, he was carefree. There was not a bad thought in his mind.
They got back in the car and Troy drove Gabi home. They pulled up to the driveway. Troy got out of the car to escort her but she stopped him at the car. He pinned her between his body and the SUV with one hand, and the other carressed her face. He kissed her. "Thank you so much." He said as he hugged her. She smiled and ran her fingers through his hair. "I love you." Gabi said. "I love you too." Troy let Gabi go and she headed to the house. He waved bye to her and then drove off once she was completely inside the house.
He sat inside on his bed. He still couldn't sleep. School didn't start for another week and a half. He soon fell asleep an hour later. He woke up around 8, getting only 4 hours of sleep. He changed into black dress pants and a white dress shirt with some type of undescribable embroidery on it. He slipped on his shoes and drove off to Gabriellas house. She was standing in the doorway wearing a black skirt and a black dress shirt. She walked out to the car and climbed in. They held hands on the way to the cemetary.
The ceremony was depressing for everyone. They watched as their best friend was burried into the cold hard ground. The gang sat there together with their arms linked. Everyone cried. It was unreal. It was unbelievable. Troy clung on to Gabriella for dear life. He was the only thing keeping him going.
They walked out of the cemetary. "Did you know that we don't start school for another week and a half?" Troy asked as he looked at Gabriella. She nodded, still wiping away her tears. They got in the car and sat there. Troy looked around. "You know, we don't have to stay here." Troy said, looking around. "You're the one driving." Gabriella half joked under her tears. "No, I'm talking about Albequerque." Gabi looked confused. "I think we shoud go out of town. Camping, something. I just can't stand being here." Gabi smiled, "I'd love that."
They settled the deal with their parents. They were to go camping in Southern New Mexico for a few days. They eached packed a duffel full of clothing and a duffebag full of random stuff, such as smores and anything else they may need. Troy loaded the car up. He flung the tent in the back of his SUV. They waved goodbye to his parrents and drove off to Gabriella's house. She ran to her mother, kissing her on the cheek. She grabbed her duffel and Troy grabbed it from her, flinging it in the car. Troy waved goodbye to Karen and they both got in the car and drove off.
Kind of short, but you know how that goes:) Just a filler of things to come! x3 thanks lovelies!
