Gabriella glanced at Troy- the statement making her blush. What if there hadn't of been an interruption? How far would it of gone? She snapped back to reality knowing there was going to be questions and consequences.

"So what Troy? What if we hadn't interrupted? Would you have made her prove me right?" Jack said stepping further into the room.

Troy who was on the brink of punching his dad asked, "And what's that supposed to mean? Huh?"

Jack kept his cool making sure his answer would hit Troy and maybe even Gabriella with hurt.

"You know very well what I mean! She's a little tramp, no doubt she'll be in bed with your best friends next. She just had to get you into the web first. I've seen the way she hangs around Chad, don't you?" Jack smirked at the end.

"Mr Bolton, I don't mean to be rude. But Chad is like my brother now, that's so… oh that would be like incest! Also I care about Troy so much and I don't know what I've done to offend you," Gabriella said.

Jack snapped. She had no right to say anything to him. He lunged forward grabbing Gabriella by the arm, his grip tightened making Gabriella whimper with pain. He moved Gabriella to the door yelling, "GET OUT! HOW DARE YOU COME NEAR THIS FAMILY! GET OUT! I DON'T WANT TO SEE YOU NEAR TROY AGAIN!"

Gabriella cried immediately running down the stairs, before Troy could follow he knew he had to say something.

"HOW DARE YOU TOUCH HER LIKE THAT! IT'S NOT YOUR CHOICE OF WHO I LOVE! IT'S MINE!" Troy said, calming himself he then continued, "If you can't accept that then I guess I can't be around or even near you."

Troy bolted down the stairs running to where he thought he'd find Gabriella.

Laura Bolton watched as Troy ran from the room. In one swift motion she turned to Jack.

SLAP!

Jack held his hand to where Laura had made contact. The stinging kicked in as Laura found the words to say.

"I want you out of the house by tomorrow morning. If I can't trust you around your son's girlfriend what makes you think I can trust you around Troy. I'm not joking Jack. I want you out. Then maybe in the future we may have a civil conversation."

Laura turned on her heel exiting the room. She couldn't believe what she had just witnessed. He'd grabbed his own son's girlfriend like she meant nothing to the world. Maybe she was right- it showed Troy too meant nothing in the world to him. Laura finally reached the garden where she broke down and cried.

"GABRIELLA!" Troy yelled. That's when he saw Gabriella sitting in the front seat of his car. Behind he could see Taylor and Chad. Sprinting over to the car he opened her door.

Gabriella smiled weakly but that's when he saw she was holding an ice pack to her arm- where his dad had grabbed her. Troy slid the pack down her arm to see several large bruises forming- each in the shape of his fathers' fingers.

Looking down at his own hands Troy had a look of disgust on his face, he had his blood in him. Someone not man enough to face what was really truly making him happy. Troy moved to a seat near the car still looking at his hands.

Gabriella walked over to him, squatting to see his face. Troy looked up- anger etched all over his face. Troy took Gabriella's hands, looking at her he said, "Gabriella I'm sorry… I, well you know I'm not like that right? I mean I would never hurt you or say those-"

Troy was stopped by Gabriella's lips on his own. Gabriella pulled away smiling, "Troy, I know your not like that, I love you for everything you are. I love when your eyes glitter when you're around people you love. I love when you're always thinking about other needs. I love it when you mimic me- even though I seemed annoyed I love you for it! I know your not like your dad, and I love you anyway. OK?"

Troy smiled, when did he become so lucky? He looked up saying, "Gabriella I love you too. I promise I'll never let you hear of see something like that again. Now my love, let's go home."

Troy took Gabriella's hand walking her to the car. Tonight had been a long night- but one that had a great result in the end. He now knew that Gabriella loved him back. That would be enough to keep him going against his dad. Knowing that he had one person he could rely on.
