OMG I'm soo sorry that I haven't updated in soo long! I've been extremely busy with the 3 basketball teams I'm playing on, the 2 soccer teams I'm on, with all my school work, and after school things, I just haven't found 2 seconds to update. But I had to get up early this morning and I decided that I'm going to forget about my school work for a couple a hours, and update. Now on with the next chapter. I hope you enjoy it.

Disclaimer: I don't own High School Musical, or any of the characters. The only ones that I own are the ones not in the movie. I also own the screen names.

Chapter 5

A Private Conversation

When he signed on, he immediately looked under his first group, which was 'Gabi' and found that she was on.

BballTroy14: Hey baby

SciGabiB: Hey hunny, how's everything and everyone?

BballTroy14: It's okay, everyone came over today. This morning I woke up, and thought I was dreaming, and Zoe asked if she'll ever see you again.

SciGabiB: Yeah, I know. I heard and saw her, remember, I can see everything.

BballTroy14: Of course, how could I forget? So you saw Sam and Zac looking at our old high school year book and photo album?

SciGabiB: Yes I did babe. You know you're doing great with the kids. I don't think Sam and Zac have ever gone this long without arguing. Oh, and tell Sam that I can hear her when she talks to me.

BballTroy14: Okay, I can do that. What has she said?

SciGabiB: There's a song called 'Can You Hear Me When I Talk To You?' by Ashley Gering that she sang to me last night.

Once Gabi said that, Troy went to Yahoo! And typed in the song and looked at the lyrics.

BballTroy14: Wow Gabs, that's an intense song, I'm sure that's exactly how Sam feels.

SciGabiB: Yeah, her and Zac were up this morning at 3:30 talking about the time that I brought them to the aquarium.

BballTroy14: They were? Now I know why they were so tired this morning.

SciGabiB: Yeah. So everyone came over today I see? How did that go?

BballTroy14: Pretty good. They were all extremely sorry, and upset. They said that it won't be the same without you, and it definitely won't be.

SciGabiB: I know babe, but once you get back into school in a couple weeks, it will get a little easier, for everyone.

BballTroy14: I don't know Gabi, I think it will just get harder without you. I wish that all of this was just a dream.

SciGabiB: I know you do Troy, so do I. But it's not, so we just have o go with it, as hard as it is.

BballTroy14: Yeah, it's really hard. At least I can still talk to you though. I think talking to you is making this a bit easier for me. I just wish there was a way to make it easier for the kids.

SciGabiB: I do too hunny, the only thing to do is just be there for them, and talk to them. Don't let them keep their feelings bottled up inside.

BballTroy14: Yeah, you're right. You're always right when it comes to our children. How do you do it? You always knew when one was lying, or trying to take a cookie without turning around. Hell, you even knew if I tried to steal a cookie!

SciGabiB: It's a wife and mother thing sweetie. But you might get it though.

BballTroy14: Ha you're funny.

SciGabiB: I know I am.

SciGabiB: It's late Troy, you should get some sleep.

BballTroy14: Awe Gabi, but I wanna talk to you more.

SciGabiB: I'll still be here tomorrow when you wake up, but you need some sleep, I'll talk to you tomorrow, okay hun?

BballTroy14: Okay Gabs, I'll talk to you in the morning. Good-night. I love you, xoxo.

SciGabiB: I love you too, xoxo. Good-night Troy.

BballTroy14 signed off at 12:15 AM.

As Troy was walking up the stairs, he couldn't help but smile. Yes, his soul mate and love of his life has died, but being able to talk to her, and know that she's watching over everyone makes him feel safe. He knows that with Gabi smiling down on him, their kids, his parents, her mom, Chad, Taylor and their children, Jason, Kelsi and theirs, Zeke, Sharpay and theirs, and Ryan, Lauren and their children, he knows that Gabi won't let anything happen to them.

After he changed, and did the normal routine before bed, he went to check on Sam, Zac, Tyler and Zoey, making sure that they were all okay and sleeping peacefully.

Once back in his room, he lay on the bed and thought about his wife. Before drifting off to sleep, he softly whispered again, as he will for the rest of his life,

"I love you Gabriella."

Up in the clouds, Gabi heard him, and replied, like she will forever,

"I love you too, Troy."

Well, there's the long awaited chapter. I'm not sure when I'm going to be able to update again, but I'll try to get it up as soon as I possibly can. I'm hoping that I will also be able to update 'Bless The Broken Road' and 'High School Musical: 15 Years Later' soon as well. I'm thinking of just picking one of the three to finish first, and then continue with another one. Let me know which one you want me to continue. Hope you enjoyed this chapter! Lemme know by reviewing!

Thanks!

xoxo
