I am so sorry I've been taking kind of longer than usual to update. Also, I couldn't fit the wedding in this chapter, but it'll be in the next one.
"Did you pack everything?" Gabriella asked Troy. It was the day before the wedding, and they were making sure they had everything before leaving for the hotel in Santa Fe'.
"Yeah. I'm all ready. What about you?" He asked, rolling his suitcase by the door.
"I think. Do you have the tuxedos and everything?"
"Yes, Gabi, they're packed."
"Good. I'm so glad my mom is taking the dresses to the hotel," she finished zipping her suitcase. She grabbed her purse, some directions, and her suitcase.
"Ready?" He said.
She nodded, "Yeah. Let's go!"
Troy grabbed the suitcase, and more papers. When they got to the car, they unloaded everything in the trunk. Some had to go in the backseat. Then they got in. Gabriella handed him the keys and he put them in the ignition. The car didn't start.
He groaned, "No!"
"What? Why isn't it working?"
He put them in once more and he didn't feel the car starting up. He pulled the keys out and examined it. "Gabi?"
"Yeah?" She asked, becoming worried about the car.
"These are the keys to your car."
She let out a small chuckle of embarrassment, "Woops."
He rolled his eyes and laughed playfully, getting out of the car. "I'll be right back. I'm going to go they keys to my car."
"Okay," she nodded, watching him run across the street into the apartment building. 'This is going to be the start of a beautiful marriage.' She thought to herself and smiled. Just then her cell phone rang. It was Taylor, according to the caller ID.
"Hey," she answered, setting her purse down next to her feet. This was going to be a long ride, so she should get comfortable.
"Hi!" Taylor exclaimed. "Are you excited?"
Gabriella laughed, "Yeah. Very, but nervous at the same time, though."
"This happens to everybody. It happened to me, remember. Like, two hours before the wedding, I started crying and getting all worried. Sharpay suggested we call a therapist," she giggled.
She laughed, too. "Yeah, that would have been a good idea, too."
"Shut up. I didn't need a therapist. Anyway, my point is, that you get all tense and nervous right before it, but after it's over, your so happy you went through with it."
"Yeah, but I started getting worried like three months ago," she said.
"Maybe that's because you're pregnant."
"I wasn't three months ago."
"You know what, stop giving me a hard time!" Taylor laughed.
"Sorry. So, you guys are coming up, right?"
"Yeah, we'll be at the hotel later tonight. Call me when you get there, okay?"
"I will," she said. "Oh, I have to go. My soon-to-be husband is coming. Bye," she said.
"Alright, bye. See you tonight," Taylor hung up.
Gabriella shut her phone and put it back in her purse, as Troy sat back in the car.
"Okay. I got the right keys now," he grinned.
"Hey! It wasn't my fault, they look exactly like yours!" She laughed.
"Are you ready to get married?"
"Yep. Ready as I'll ever be."
After about fourty-five minutes, they sat in the car, listening to the radio.
"Can we stop at a gas station?" She asked.
"Why? We're almost there."
"I'm hungry."
"We ate before we left," he stated.
"I have craving food, you know."
"Why can't we just eat when we get there?"
"Troy, I'm carrying five babies! Go to a gas station!" She yelled.
"Okay, okay, okay. I'm going," he said, pulling into a gas station at the side of the road.
"Thank you. Was that so hard to do?" She asked, getting out of the car, and going into the store.
He sat in the car, waiting for her. He just couldn't believe he was getting married tomorrow. He looked through the window and saw her up at the register. He really loved her so much. He wanted to e-mail that dating website and thank them so much for setting them up. Maybe even invite them to the wedding! Just kidding.
"Hey," she said, getting back in the car with a bag containing items.
"What did you get?" He sighed.
"Don't sound like I just robbed a bank. I just got simple stuff, geeze," she said, putting her seat belt on.
Troy took the bag from her. "Ice cream, candy, chips," he continued rummaging. "Cheese?"
"Yeah, you know, I hear it's very good for growing babies," she laughed.
"Okay..." He softly laughed. "Let's get going."
When they got to the hotel, they checked in and went to their room. Troy set his stuff on the ground and went to the bathroom. When he came out, Gabriella wasn't there.
"Great," he muttered to himself. "She's gone." He started looking through the halls. The he spotted her down a hall. She stopped at the middle, with a bright light shining on her face. He walked closer, realizing it was a vending machine.
"What are you doing?" He asked, grabbing her waist.
"Oh, hi. Nothing, I'm hungry."
"But, we just bought all that stuff at the gas station," he said.
"Yeah, well I'm not really in the mood for it anymore. Look, Troy, they have cookies!"
"Gabi... you could have gotten that at the gas station."
"I didn't think about it then. What's your problem?"
"Nothing. I guess I'm stressing, too," he said, leaning down against the wall next to the vending machine. He slid down.
She sat beside him, "Troy, I'm nervous too, but just think, after it's over, it'll be everything you dreamed. You and me in someplace tropical," she smiled and leaned in to kiss him. He grabbed her waist, despite sitting on the floor, and deepened it. Suddenly, the door beside them opened. After all, they are in the middle of a hotel hallway.
"Troy? Gabriella?"
They looked up, to find themselves making out in front of Ms. Montez.
"Um, hi mom," she got up and hugged her. "You made it!"
"Hi," she said, hugging her daughter. "Do you guys normally, you know... kiss on the floor of a hotel?" She laughed.
"Mom! We were just... caught up in a moment."
"Yeah," Troy agreed.
"Hi, Troy. It's good to see you," Ms. Montez hugged him.
"You too. Thanks for coming."
"You think I would miss this? I was just going down to check out the pool. Do you two want to come?" Ms. Montez asked.
"No thanks, we're just going to stay in our room, right Troy?" Gabriella said.
Troy getting the feeling that she just wanted to be alone with him agreed, "Yeah, we just got here, so we want to settle in a bit."
"Okay, well are we all going out to dinner tonight?" She asked.
"Yeah, it's the rehearsal dinner. I'll call you on your cell phone, mom," Gabriella said.
"Alright, have fun," she said, walking down the hall then turning down the hall, where the elevator is.
Gabriella swiped the card, while holding Troy's hand and led him onto the bed. She lay down and he lay down next to her. She wrapped her arms around his neck and passionately kissed him. He put his hands on her back and deepened the kiss. They broke after a while.
"That was nice," he smiled.
"At least there's more privacy in here," she softly kissed him.
"I like that," he whispered before breaking the kiss. "I love you."
"I love you, too. We're getting married tomorrow," she smiled.
"I know. It's going to be the happiest day of my life. Well and having the babies," he said.
Before they knew it, it was time to get ready for the rehearsal dinner. Everyone was staying at the same hotel, so they decided to eat at the fancy restaurant that was there. Gabriella wore a long light pink dress. Her hair was up in a loose clip, with curls falling. Troy wore black pants, and a dress shirt, with a jacket. (His hair was in the same style, hot as always!) Everyone was meeting them down there. When they got to the restaurant downstairs, Ms. Montez, Mr. and Mrs. Bolton, Ryan, Sharpay, Zeke, and Ariella were sitting at the table.
"Hi!" Gabriella exclaimed as soon as they spotted them.
"Gabriella!" Sharpay exclaimed and ran up to her. She gave her a hug. "Congratulations!"
"Thanks!" She put a curl behind her ear. "Thanks to all of you for coming." She hugged everyone else, too. When they sat down, everyone talked about the wedding and the quintuplets. Troy and Gabriella already told everybody, but it was the biggest shock to hear. Pretty soon, everyone else arrived including Chad, Taylor, Ryan, Kelsi, Rachael, Tom (her husband), the little baby, Alicia, and a few more family members.
Kelsi sat by Gabriella, "Hi!" She hugged her. "Congratulations! It's tomorrow!"
"Thanks. I'm really excited. Thanks for coming!" Gabriella smiled.
"Definitely."
After dinner and everyone made their toasts, they all headed up to their hotel rooms. Troy and Gabriella went to bed knowing that tomorrow was going to be filled with everything: Craziness, exhaustion, crying, laughing, fun, excitement, and love.
A/N: Again, sorry I couldn't fit the wedding in this chapter. I promise that it'll be in the next one. I know this is random, but my cousin had a baby a couple days ago. I was so happy! You know what's funny? She married a guy with the last name, 'Pillsbury.' He's actually part of the family that founded the company. I know it's random, but cool. Also, she had a baby and Gabriella's going to have babies. I'll try to update as soon as soon as I can! So, please review and as always, thanks for reading!
