A/N: Thank you to all those who took time to review. It means a lot. Now on with the story!
Ben and Gabriella walked to his house in silence. They were both worried about how his parents were going to react. Even though his parents liked Gabriella like if she was their own, she still was scared about what they thought of her. They reached his house but Ben stopped her from going inside.
"Are you ready?" he asked, a hint of nervousness in his tone.
"I don't think I'll ever be ready." Gabriella stated.
"No matter what happens in there, I will always love you and not even my parents can tear us apart. Besides, they are already grandparents." He reassured her.
"Really? I knew you had a sister but I didn't know she was married. You're an uncle?" Gabriella replied, shock written all over her face.
"Yeah, to a beautiful 11 month old girl." He replied, remembering the day he first saw his niece.
"You really think your parents would be ok with this." It wasn't a question.
"They might have wanted us to be a bit older but it would have still happened." Gabriella nodded but then realized what he said.
"You think about that stuff? You know… us and the future?"
"Its hard not to. I'm in love with you aren't I? I never want that to change. I thought we would go to collage and no matter how far we are from each other, we would still be stronger than ever. Then we would get married and have some kids. Well at least we got one of those things done already." He finished and went to sit in the front porch. Gabriella was smiling at the thought of him and their baby.
Gabriella joined him and took a deep breath. She knew they had to tell both of their parents and the sooner the better.
"Lets go." She said getting up. Ben followed her inside his house.
"Honey, is that you?" his mom asked, coming out of the kitchen, "oh, hello Gabriella. How are you?"
"Fine" Gabriella replied even though she felt like she was going to throw up.
"Mom, is Dad here?" Ben asked.
"Yeah he's in the kitchen. Why?" she knew something was going, she could just tell.
"We have to talk to both of you." He replied and the three of them went in to the kitchen. His dad was sitting down and reading a news article.
"Mom, you might want to sit down for this."
"What's going on?" Ben's dad asked.
"Um… Well… You see…" Gabriella for once didn't have an answer to give him. She looked at Ben, searching for help.
"What Gabriella is trying to say is that…" Ben took a deep breath, "Gabriella's pregnant with my child and we are going to keep the baby even if you disapprove."
His parents were in a state of shock. They were trying to comprehend what their son had just said.
"Um… Wow." Was all Mr. Clark could say. His expression was hard to read.
"I… I can't say that I'm not disappointed but I know something must have happened when you didn't return home until the day after Chad's party." She sighed, "Are you sure that you can take care of a baby?"
"No one is ever ready to take care of a baby until its born." Gabriella finally spoke.
"I was going to tell Gabi later but I have enough money to take care us for about five years. I was thinking that it would be enough time for us to be out collage and get our lives." Gabriella's eyes widened.
"How did you get that much money?" she asked.
"I have been saving it since I was six years old." He replied.
"Well, you could stay with us for as long as you need." Mr. Clark stated.
"You guys are okay with this." Gabriella said in shock.
"Yeah, I guess we are." said Mrs. Clark, "my little Ben is going to be a daddy." She said while kissing Ben on the cheek.
"Mom!" Ben yelled in embarrassment and his cheeks turned red. Gabriella and Mr. Clark laughed.
"We have to go and tell everyone else." Gabriella reminded Ben as they left his house, hand in hand.
"Yeah… Who first? The gang or your mom?" he asked.
Gabriella was about to respond when they heard a couple of people say their names. It was the gang.
"I guess the gang it is." Whispered Ben and they greeted their friends.
Sharpay had a feeling that they were going to tell them so she went straight to the point.
"Is there something you want to tell us?" Sharpay asked.
"I'm… I'm pregnant." Gabriella felt relief when she saw Sharpay smile. The others were confused.
"But how could you be… Wait a minute… Chad's party." Ryan said in realization.
Taylor, Kelsi, and Zeke started to smile.
"I'll baby-sit when you need me too." Taylor offered.
"Me too." Kelsi offered.
"You know, Zeke is a great name for a boy." Zeke suggested.
The only one who looked horrified was Chad.
"You guys did it in my guest room!"
Everyone except Chad laughed.
"We have to go. I have to tell my mom the news." With that said the couple walked off.
"Sharpay, why aren't you so shocked?" Kelsi asked.
"I already knew." She responded.
"How?" asked Zeke.
"I know everything." Sharpay then walked ahead of everyone else.
Gabriella stopped Ben before they got close to her house.
"Ben, my mom might not be as understanding as your parents and she already doesn't like you and I'm her only daughter and I just-" Ben cut her off by kissing her. When he broke that kiss, their foreheads rested against each other.
"Gabi, what ever happens, we will still be together. Relax, nothing is going to break us apart." He kissed her one more time and they continued to walk.
Ben and Gabriella reached her house but something was different. A car was parked in front of their house. Gabriella remembered that car. Troy's car.
"What's he doing here?" she asked Ben. He shrugged.
They entered her house and walked into the living room. In the living room was none other than Troy Bolton and Ms. Montez. Ms. Montez looked angry, upset, and a lot of other emotions that Gabriella couldn't recognize. Troy spotted them and smiled.
"Hey Gabriella… Ben."
Before either of them could reply, Ms. Montez turned to them and yelled,
"You're pregnant!"
Gabriella and Ben stood their in shock. One thought was going through their minds,
How did Troy find out?
