A/N: Hey thanks for the reviews for the last chapter. I think the next chapter will just be the other couples because this story is more based on Troyella and I haven't been able to fit the others in much.. Please R&R!

Chapter 38
"What?" Troy asked in shock.
"I'm having twins." Gabriella repeated.
"How?" Gabriella raised her eyes at him. "Sorry I didn't mean that. I can't believe we're having twins." Troy exclaimed as Gabriella looked at him. "You do know I've just given Chad a second reason to kill me now." Gabriella laughed.
"You happy about this?" Gabriella asked
"Gabi of course I'm happy you are carrying my children and I love you so much." Gabriella smiled as she felt relief go through her the fact Troy wasn't mad.
"Don't worry about Chad killing you because I think he's more scared of Taylor and if I tell her to tell Chad not to kill you then she will but what do you say we play with their minds a bit first before we tell them." Gabriella asked as an evil smile came over her face.
"I think I like that idea Miss Montez. Hey Gabi I have a question first though. Are we going to give these two your last name or mine or both?" Gabriella thought for a minute.
"Definitely Bolton. I'm not having both and I soon won't be Montez when we finally sort out our wedding so they should have their daddies name." Troy kissed her as they saw how far behind the others they were.
"We should probably catch up with them." Gabriella nodded as they quickened their pace.
Sharpay walked up the drive first leading to a rather big house. Gabriella knew the house well since it wasn't that long since she had been.
"What's up with that smile Gabs?" Zeke asked as everyone looked at Gabriella who just shrugged as the door opened.
"Mr Danforth turn around this instant." Chad's head shot up as he turned while the gang laughed.
"Your still scared of her." Ryan said as Chad punched his arm.
"Miss Montez what are you doing here again so soon. And I see you brought me others." Gabriella smiled as everyone looked at her weirdly.
"What does she mean Gabs here again so soon?" Sharpay asked.
"I never told you guys but just before I found out I was pregnant and Troy and I had that argument I came to see Ms Darbus." Troy looked at her.
"You came to see Ms Darbus? Why?" Taylor slapped the back of his head. "OW!"
"She's right in front of her you idiot. Don't sound so horrified she didn't come to you cheater." Taylor rolled her eyes at Troy's forgetfulness.
"Mr Bolton I'm glad you are still the same. Anyway are you all going to stay outside or are you coming in." Everyone walked on as Ms Darbus held Gabriella back.
"I take it you and Mr Bolton sorted things out?" Gabriella nodded.
"Things are actually better than alright now. We're engaged and I'm pregnant." Ms Darbus smiled at Gabriella.
"Well I'm glad you deserve to be happy. How about we go join them and see what they are doing?" Gabriella followed MS Darbus into the living where Sharpay, who was always round Ms Darbus' in high school, had led them.
"-Chad don't be so stupid. Ms Darbus isn't a witch that will cast a spell on you." Kelsi said in an amused voice.
"Mr Danforth you really think I'm a witch?" Gabriella laughed as Ms Darbus watched Chad look at her in horror.
"No. I mean yeah I … I mean… Why did we come here again?" Chad asked Sharpay who smiled.
"Chad just shut up!" Troy shouted as Chad panicked.
"Thank you Mr Bolton. Gabriella you should be sitting." Gabriella smiled as the others looked at her.
"Actually Kelsi should be too Ms Darbus." Ms Darbus looked at Kelsi in surprise.
"Ok will everyone sit down and start filling me in. Oh and Gabriella remember what I said and this applies to all of you. No more Ms Darbus because it makes me feel old so its Angela." All the others apart from Sharpay, Ryan and Kelsi were all trying to get used this side of Ms Darbus. They all spent the day filling her in on everything that happened. When she heard Troy cheated on Gabriella she had a huge go at him. Gabriella had turned to her several times after her mom died whenever she felt she couldn't talk to anyone else so she became like a daughter to her.
"Well it sounds like you are all having a lot of fun." Ms Darbus stated as Troy's phone rang.
"Hello?…what?…we'll be right there." Troy hung up. "Gabi we have to go now. Sorry guys." Gabriella stood up alarmed as Troy dragged her out.
"Troy slow down. What's wrong?" Gabriella asked pulling Troy to a stop.
"Gabi my dad's been rushed back to hospital. They don't know if he will be ok." Gabriella pulled Troy into a hug letting him cry.
"I'm sorry. We have to go." Gabriella nodded as she picked up Troy's hand and pulled him quickly toward his house so they could get his car.
Troy and Gabriella ran into the hospital looking for Lisa or someone.
"Where's Jack Bolton?" Troy frantically asked.
"The doctors are with him at the minute just take a seat and someone will be with you soon." Gabriella pulled Troy to the waiting room.
"Troy?" Gabriella and Troy turned to see Lisa's parents, Troy's grandparents.
"What are you guys doing here?" Troy asked standing up to give them a hug while Gabriella smiled.
"We heard your dad wasn't well so we came down to see if we could do anything." Troy sat back down while Gabriella rested her head on his shoulder while his grandparents smiled at the young couple.
"How are you guys going?" Marissa (Troy's grandmother) asked.
"We're ok. Actually we're better than ok. Gabriella you want to tell them?" Gabriella shook her head. "Fine I'll do it. Gabriella is pregnant." Marissa and James (Troy's grandfather) looked at the two surprised.
"Gabriella's pregnant?" Troy nodded as Gabriella just sat there half asleep.
"Aww guys congratulations." They each hugged the couple and just talked about the 'baby' until Lisa came out.
"Mom what's going on?" Troy asked jumping up quickly.
"Your dad's stable but he really isn't well. You can go in and see him if you want." Troy nodded as Gabriella followed Troy down the hallway.
"Dad?" Troy said quietly as he opened the door.
"Hey Troy, Gabi." Gabriella smiled as the tears rushed to her eyes seeing how weak Jack looked.
"How you doing dad?" Gabriella sat in the chair next to the bed on Troy's lap holding Jack's hand.
"I'm ok what about you two?" it was obvious he was in pain and was trying to hide it, Lisa came back in the room and sat in the chair next to Troy and Gabriella.
"Dad tell the truth." Troy warned his dad.
"Troy I don't want you to worry I'm fine. How you doing Gabi?" Gabriella smiled and nodded for Troy to tell them.
Actually while we have you both together we have something to tell you." Jack and Lisa eyed the two.
"What did you do Troy?" Gabriella laughed.
"I didn't do anything. Actually I have made Gabriella probably hate me twice." Gabriella shook her head.
"Troy just get on with it." Troy kissed her.
"Mom dad you won't be getting a grandchild," they looked confused, "You will be getting grandchildren. Gabriella is having twins."
"OMG! Guys that's amazing." Lisa exclaimed as she hugged the two.
"That's great guys, I need you two to do something for me then, I don't want either of you here at the hospital. We don't want either of you to get ill and out these babies lives at risk. Promise me you won't come up." Gabriella and Troy sighed.
"Fine. The two agreed. They stayed a little longer to make sure Jack was ok before going home.
A/N: This chapter was a bit of a boring chapter I thought. Please review. Thanks!
