One month later~~~
Troy and Gabriella been spending alot of time together before she had to go to Stanford University to the special Honor's program.
"Ready to go" Troy said grabbing her duffel. Gabriella sat on the stairs looking up at him with wet eyes again.
"Gabriella" he said dropping her bag to the floor and walking over to her "Gabi baby we talked about this"
"I know but it's not the same as the moment of truth"she said wiping a tear.
"I know but I'm coming up there Saturday to get you for prom" he said resting his hand on her thigh.
"It's not just that"she said "it's East high and all my friends I won't see for the rest of the summer,I hate moving!"
"It won't be so bad Gabriella" he stated "I'll try everything in my power to make it easy on you,okay" He was now cupping her cheek to make her look at him. She just nodded and looked back down.
"Come on beautiful" he grabbed her hand,kissed it and stood her up.
"Gabriella come on baby,you're gonna be late" Maria shouted upstairs to get Gabi going to class
"That's what I'm afraid of" Gabriella said to herself holding a pregnancy test box.
"Are you sick baby" her mother said on the opposite side of the bathroom door.
"No mommy" Gabriella said rolling her eyes "give me a sec please"as she waited for the hourglass to finish turning on the digital pregnancy test to read her results.
"Please say negative,please say negative" she prayed still looking at the test, this have been the longest 3 minutes of her life.
"Omg no no no nooo"she said quietly looking at the smiley face on the stick.
She grabbed her phone and texted Troy
" Troy call me when you get my text"
Troy was outside playing basketball with Chad,his phone was on vibrate.
"Dude" Chad said "weren't we suppose to pick up tuxedos today"
"Shit I knew it was something I forgot man" Troy said while shooting and scoring a basket "we can head out now" Troy said grabbing his keys and his phone and saw Gabriella's text and told himself he was gonna call her when he gets settled in the house that evening.
Gabriella came downstairs to the kitchen where her mother was making 2 cups of coffee and handed one to her daughter. Gabriella slowly took the cup and sat down at the table.
"Mija" her mother started getting a good look at her face "Are you ok?"
"Yes why?" Gabriella asked looking at her mother
"Because your face is shiny,are you sweating?" Maria stated taking her right hand and feeling Gabriella's forehead "you're burning up,Gabi"
"I feel fine mami"Gabriella tried to reassure her
"I'm calling your doctor" Maria said picking up her phone "you're gonna see her today"
"In Albuquerque mom?" Gabriella asked
"I had everything transferred our last week in New Mexico"
"0h" was all Gabriella could her out all she wanted to do was lie down and wrap her head around the fact she was carrying Troy Bolton's baby.
Tears began to fall as she thought about her future in college,more importantly Troy's.
Maria glanced from her phone to see her daughter playing with her hands.
"Mija baby what's the matter" she asked kneeling down to her sitting level "look at mommy"
Gabriella looked up didn't say anything
Maria dropped her hand from Gabriella's shoulder getting the hint she saw in her eyes.
"Are you pregnant" she asked
Gabriella looked back down in her hands.
"I asked you a question" Maria said with a little stern in her voice. Gabriella went quiet again "hello!!"she raised her voice a little
"I don't know!" Gabriella raised her voice to the same level as her mother's "I peed on the stick thingy upstairs and it said positive,I don't see how"
"I thought you were careful" Maria said with her hands now on the table.
"We were mommy" Gabriella said "I'm on the pill and Troy always used a condom"
"Well this doesn't look like you were protected enough" Maria pointed to Gabriella's tummy.
" ma I'm beating myself up enough about it"She was now standing "I don't need you doing it too"
She started walking away
"It's your choice baby" Maria stated and Gabi stopped walking "your body,your baby...make the right choice sweetie"
"I will" Gabriella said quietly
Troy finally got in the house it 8:55pm and called his girlfriend but she didn't answer.
"She must be knocked out" he laughed "from all that genius homework they have her doing"
"Oh my God!" Gabriella said puking out her dinner into the toilet,she got up and washed her mouth out and left the bathroom
"Hey sweetheart you're ok" Maria appeared in the bathroom's doorway coming in from work
"I don't know" Gabriella answered "is this normal?"
"Perfectly normal" Maria smiled "your body trying to adjust to the newly growing hormones"
Gabriella innocently nodded her head
"Here take these" Maria handed her a bottle of pills
"What are these?" Gabriella asked taking the bottle
"Morning nausea pills" Maria answered her "did the doctor tell you how far along you are?"
"Almost 6 weeks" Gabriella said reading the bottle's dosage information
"So it was gonna happen sometime" Maria smiled
"What?" Gabriella asked curiously
"You making me a grandma"Maria's smile never fading
"Oh,I'm sorry" she apologized "I just didn't want to have a baby this soon"
"It's up to you if you want to have this child,Gabi" her mother stated
"No I want to" Gabriella said dryly "at first I didn't want to but the doctor showed me the screen and I saw little Bolton"
"Did you tell Troy?"
"No I had a choice between answering the phone or having my head in the toilet bowl" Gabriella laughed
"We'll go and call him back" Maria said smiling and walking down the hall to her room "he needs to know"
Gabriella called him back but couldn't breath the exact words 'I'm pregnant' in fact he was coming to pick her up for prom the next day so that's what they talked about.
"Hey Troy!" Maria greeted him at the front door with a hug,he was already in his tux with his hair gelled back exposing his thick eyebrows and lashes making his eyes look extra blue.
"You look very handsome" Maria complimented him
"Thank you" he smiled putting his hands in his pockets
Next thing they knew Gabriella was racing down the stairs to meet Troy and jumped in his arms
"Gabi!!" Her mother exclaimed eyeing her "be careful"
"Mommy my boyfriend's here!!" She smiled really hard with one of those smiled Troy loved
He laughed at her statement "you look beautiful by the way" he looked her up and down thinking of Getting between her thighs after prom.
"Thank you" she blushed "so do you,and I love your hair like this" she rubbed her hand over his hard hair.
"Thanks babe" he smiled "ready to go?"
"Yep!" She said with excitement
"Let me get a picture first"Maria said grabbing her phone. Gabriella automatically posed with her back pressed against Troy's chest,Maria snapped a few pics,then Troy wrapped his arms around Gabriella resting them on her stomach and she tensed up,Maria took a few more and saw her daughter's facial expression that told her she didn't tell Troy about their unborn child yet.
"Gabi you're ok?" she asked her
She eased Troy's hands away from her abdomen
"Yes mommy I'm fine" she flashed a phony smile
"Ok we better get going we have a long drive" Troy stated rubbing Gabriella's back
"Ok You two have fun" Maria said and gave her daughter a threatened look that read she better tell Troy about their baby. Gabriella took a hint and nodded.
"We will" they said in unison while walking out the door to Troy's truck
