"Just tell me what happened to our baby."

Ben took a deep breath, thinking of what to say. What was he suppose to say?

"Well… just trust me, everything will be fine." He said trying to convince both Gabriella and himself.

Gabriella looked into his eyes and knew right away that he was lying. She was about to respond when he interrupted her.

"Please, just trust me." He said in desperation.

She saw the fear in his eyes and held the urge to beg him to tell her what was really going on. She hugged him tight and whispered into his ear, "Of course I trust you. I'm just… I'm just scared."

He hugged her back breathing in her lavender scent. He was so thankful that one of his girls was all right. He held back tears when he started thinking of Abby but he wouldn't let Gabi see them because he knew that they would just confirm her suspicions. There was a knock on the door and then Dr. Patterson came in.

"I'm glad you're awake Gabriella. Ben, could talk to you outside for a second? Gabriella, I will return to run a couple of exams of you." She walked out of the room and was soon followed by Ben.

"Any news?" he asked. The doctor already knew that he was talking about Abby.

"Her lung is developing quicker than expected so that's good. It's all up to her now. She just has to breath." She reported.

"Is… Is she in pain?" He asked.

Dr. Patterson smiled, "No, she isn't. If you want, you can go see her."

"Really?" he asked looking hopeful.

"She is in the next floor up. Room 281."

He was about to run over there when she stopped him.

"What do you want name her?" She asked.

"Abby Marie Clark Montez." He said and went to the elevator.

Once he reached the floor, he slowed down. He was finally going to see Abby, his baby girl.

He reached room 281 and took a deep breath. He was about to open the door when he heard someone speak behind him.

"How did I know that you were going to be here?" Natalie asked him.

"Are you going to come in with me or not?" he asked her.

She put her arm around him and they both walked into the room together. Ben saw a lot of machine in the room and then saw a small little bed where a small form was lying on its back. His heart stopped as he gazed at the small person in front of him. She's perfect, he thought. This was his baby girl. A smile spread throughout his face. Natalie smiled at his expression, having a similar one when she saw her own baby.

"She's so small." He stated.

"Yeah but she's a Clark. Clark's can get through anything." She reassured him, "She's beautiful."

"She looks exactly like Gabi." He replied. It was true; she was an exact replica of Gabriella. "And I'm okay with that." He continued.

He put his index finger through one of the holes were people could touch the babies and he rubbed the back of Abby's hand with his finger.

"You'll be okay." He whispered to her as tears fell down his face.

"Ben, you have to take a shower and eat." Natalie said as gently as possible, " I know you don't want to leave her side but this isn't healthy. It's almost morning, go home, get some sleep, eat, and take a shower. We'll call you if anything happens."

If anyone else would have told him that, he would have disagreed, but Natalie had this ability to make anyone agree with what she said and believe that she did understand what he or she were going through. He stood up whispered goodbye to Abby and left the room. Natalie sighed; she hated seeing her brother like this.

A few hours have past and the gang had all individually visited Gabriella. The doctor had said that it might be helpful for Abby if some of them went up and talked to her. Chad, Kelsi and Taylor had just left home, when Ryan, Zeke and Sharpay entered room 281.

"I still can't believe that Gabriella had a baby." Ryan stated.

"All I care about is making this baby breath." Zeke responded.

Sharpay sighed, "She's so beautiful, she doesn't deserve to not have a chance to live. Gabriella should at least meet her." She said through tears. Zeke wrapped his arms around her as she sobbed.

"It's not fair." She kept repeating. Gabriella was her first true friend. She was the first person to ever see Sharpay as someone other than the Ice Queen.

"Why don't we take you home. You have been through enough today." Ryan suggested. All Sharpay could do was nod. She whispered to Abby, "Get better" and Zeke, Ryan and she left the room.

Natalie was sitting in a chair next to Gabriella with one-year-old Annie on her lap. She knew that Annie would be able to take Gabriella's mind off Abby for a while. Annie was immediately fond of Gabriella and thought of her like an aunt. Natalie thought Gabriella was the sister she never had.

Annie was a spitting image of her mother. The only difference was that she had a slightly darker shade of blonde. She was giggling happily while Natalie and Gabriella were making funny faces.

"You are the best mother. It's like you know exactly what you're doing." Gabriella said amazed.

"Once you hold your baby for the first time, everything just starts to come to you. It's like motherly instinct." Natalie explained while Annie was started playing with her hair.

Gabriella smiled sadly, thinking what it would feel like when she would hold Abby for the first time. Natalie immediately knew what she was thinking about.

"She is going to be fine. You'll get to hold her soon."

"But when?" Gabriella asked impatiently.

"Soon." Natalie reassured her. She didn't want to tell her that under the circumstances, Abby only had about four hours to live.

Troy had been standing in front of the door for almost an hour and a half. He was scared of what he was going to see, knowing that it was the outcome of his mistake. He sighed and went in. When he saw the small baby, tears started to fall. He walked to it sat in a chair next to her.

"I'm sorry." He whispered, "I am so, so sorry. You have to be okay. Gabriella and Ben don't deserve this. You don't deserve this. They have waited so long for you to arrive and you can't leave so soon. I messed Gabriella's life up once and I am not going to do it again. It's time I let her go, but I am not going to let this go if you don't make it." He thought that he saw her move for a second but he shook his head, blaming his blurred vision that was caused by tears.

"Don't do this to them." He continued, " They will make great parents. Gabriella is the sweetest, most caring and most intelligent person I know. Anyone would be lucky to consider her as his or her mother. Ben will be the best father you could ask for. He will protect you from anyone who tries to harm you. They need you. All I am asking you is to pull through. If you wont do it for me, do it for your mom and dad."

Troy wiped his eyes. He could have sworn that Abby had moved. He ran out the door and saw Dr. Patterson getting off the elevator. He ran to her, his happiness growing.

"She moved!" he said excitedly. Dr. Patterson looked confused.

"What?"

"Abby! I saw her move!" he explained.

She didn't need more explanation. She hurried to room 281 and checked the baby. Troy waited for a moment, trying to contain himself from singing in happiness.

"Troy, I don't know what you did to her but…" she turned to face him, a smile growing on her face, "Abby is breathing… Breathing on her own!"
