Troy stood their holding Gabriella in awe. "What did you just say?" He asked, wanting to believe that what he heard was a mistake.

"I cheated and the baby might not be yours." Gabriella stated again quietly. She was trying to hold on to this position for as long as she could. She knew that once he caught on to what was going on there wouldn't be anymore moments like this for a while.

All of a sudden Troy had a huge headache. He gently pushed Gabriella away from him and stood up. "What are you saying?" He had never been this confused in his life.

"Remember when I thought you cheated on me with Sharpay?" Gabriella asked still sitting on the floor. She looked up to Troy with her big puppy dog eyes.

"Yes, but who else might be the father?" He could feel his anger build up.

"Cohen" Gabriella said looking down to the floor in shame.

"You told me that you never did anything with him!?" He said irritated. He was screaming by now. He could feel his face turn red with anger.

"I know. I lied." She said low. She hated it when Troy got mad.

Troy stared down at Gabriella. "Why would you do that to me?" He pointed to himself.

Gabriella stood up and tried to take Troys hand, but he quickly pulled it away. "I never meant for this to happen." She said looking straight into his eyes.

Troy could see that Gabriella was really sorry, but his anger was getting into the way. "No, you don't care." He spat back at her. "I almost gave up my whole life for you and this baby. You knew from the start that I might not be the father." Troy's heart dropped when he said those words.

"I know" Gabriella said with a tear running down her face. "I was just so scared and I didn't know what to do." She said putting her head down in shame. She couldn't even look him in the eye anymore. "It was bad enough that I was pregnant and seventeen. "

Troy fake laughed. "So instead of telling me the truth you lied to me?" He asked. He went over to Gabriella and looked her straight in the eye. "I'm leaving and don't wait up." He said and left the place that used to be the place where he went for peace and quiet.

Bolton/Montez Apartment

Troy went inside the room that he used to share with Gabriella. He packed all of his belongings into a box that he found downstairs.

Gabriella came rushing inside the bedroom and started to unpack the stuff that Troy was packing.

"What the hell are you doing?" He asked getting irritated.

"Your not leaving!" She said historically. "You are going to stay here and we are going to get through this."

"Gabriella, don't start." Troy yelled. "I'm just trying to leave without doing or saying anything that I might regret later.

"No!" Gabriella said standing up for herself. "I know that I made a mistake, but I have a feeling that we can get through this."

"Are you listening to yourself?" Troy asked looking at Gabriella like she was stupid.

"Yes, I am."

"Gabriella I know that you want the perfect family, but I don't think it's going to be with me." "I can't live with compulsive liars."

"This is my first time ever lying to you, and you don't even know if the baby is yours or not." She said pleading for him to stay.

"I cant!" He screamed at her. "I can't stay here with you. It just makes me so mad that you lied to me for all of these months. Do you know how much I love that baby inside of you?" He exploded.

"And I love how much you love this baby." Gabriella said slipping her hand into his. "And that's why I want you to stay here and raise it with me."

"I can't raise a baby and not know if it's mine." Troy said taking his hand out of Gabriella's. "Every time I see that kid I'll think of the way that I have nothing to do with creating it."

"I understand that, but I love you, and I want this to work."

"I can't deal with this right now." Troy said dropping his box from out of his hand. "I have to go and take a walk." He started walking toward the door.

"Where are you going?" Gabriella asked following him.

"Out!" He screamed and slammed the door in her face.

An Hour And A Half Later:

"Here drink this." Taylor said putting hot tea in front of Gabriella's face.

"Thanks" Gabriella said as she watched Taylor put the hot cup on the table.

Taylor sat down next to her buddy at the table. "I know that you worried about him, but I'm sure that he's fine." She said reassuring her best friend.

"You should have saw how mad he was at me." Gabriella said puring more sugar into her tea. "I have never seen him so mad in my life." She said remembering the past few hours.

"Can you blame him?" Taylor asked trying to comfort her friend. "I mean what if your mom told you that your father wasn't your father, wouldn't you be mad?"

"I would, but I would never want to find my real father. The short time that he was on this earth was me I loved him, and no matter who helped create me he was still my father."

"It's good that you have a positive out-look on that. Most people would be so mad at their mother."

"Trust me I have way more things to be mad at my mother about than that." Gabriella said with a little smile. She slowly stirred her spoon.

"You should really eat." Taylor said looking at her friend. "You know that you have a baby to feed now too?"

"I know, but I haven't been hungry today for some reason."

Taylor was about to say something when there was a knock on the door.

Gabriella's face quickly lit up. "Go answer it. It must be Troy."

Taylor got up and ran over to the door. She opened it and looked at the person in front of her. It was a guy that looked about eighteen. He had blond hair and blue eyes. He looked about 6 foot 2 inches, and he looked like a movie star.

"Why haven't you answered my calls?" He asked walking into the apartment without a hello.

"I know that you just didn't walk up in here un-announced, and didn't say hello to anybody. Boy, didn't your parents teach you anything?" Taylor asked.

"I'm sorry, and who are you?" He asked turning to Taylor.

"No, that's not how it works. Who are you?" She asked with an attitude.

"My name is Cohen Gwyde." He said putting out his hand, and you are."

"Just call me Taylor." She said shaking his hand. "So your the ex?" She said looking him up and down again.

Cohen ignored Taylors comment and went over to Gabriella. "You tell me your pregnant and I might be the father and then you don't answer any of my calls. What's up with that?" He asked confused.

"I'm sorry, but that night was a mistake. I was mad at Troy and I should have never had sex with you."

"So what? That still doesn't mean that I might be the father." He said looking at her. "And I want to be there for you and the baby, if I am."

"Who the hell are you?" Troy asked when he entered his apartment.

"I'm Cohen Gwyde. You must be Troy Bolton?"

"You have some damn nerve coming into my apartment and talking to me like that." He said going over to Cohen.

Cohen laughed "Seems like your mad. Just because I took your girl from you don't have to make us enemies." He said sarcastically.

Troy went up to Cohen and picked him up by his collar. "Lets get something straight you didn't take anything from me. You wanted Gabriella so bad that you had to wait until I messed up to get some."

Cohen could see the anger in his eyes. "So what are you going to do hit me?" He asked not scared at all. "I dare you too. I will call my lawyer so fast that you will get whip lash."

Gabriella got up from the table. She went over to the two boys. "Troy calm down." She said soothingly. "If you hit him than you can forget about colleges wanting you at all."

Troy put Cohen down and went to the room. When he came back out he had the box that he had packed int he beginning. "I'm leaving." He said. "You and Cohen can be the family that you've always wanted."

Gabriella tried to say something to that, but Cohen beat her to it.

"Don't worry we will." He said putting his hand on her stomach.

Troy wanted to put that box down and punch him in his face so badly, but part of him knew that he would never get a college scholarship.

Gabriella pulled away from Cohen, and went over to Troy. She kissed him on his cheek and whispered in his ear "Stay safe." She finally came to the conclusion that she needed to give Troy some space. He needed to think about what he would do.

Troy was to mad at Gabriella to say anything. He just stood there and gave her a head nod and left. He hated the thought of leaving her there with Cohen, but right now he needed to get his head right.

After Troy left Gabriella went over to Cohen. She slapped him right across his face. "Don't you ever do that again!" She screamed.

Cohen's head went back slightly. "What are you talking about?"

"You come in here with an attitude and then you try to get Troy to hit you? What has gotten into you?"

"Gabriella I love you." He said getting close to her.

Gabriella pulled away from him. "You know we already went over this. I don't love you anymore."

"Come on you made love to me that night, and now you might be carrying my baby. You know that this is the way that God wanted it." He said getting closer to Gabriella.

"No, that night I had sex with you to get back at Troy, and I doubt that this is your baby."

"Baby, stop acting like that."

"I'm not acting like anything." She said pushing Cohen away. "I don't love you anymore at all." She said truthfully. "I just called you so you can get a paternity test."

"Why don't you ask that Troy guy to do it?" Cohen asked.

"Cohen, just please."

"Now you want me to help you, after you just tried to play me?" Cohen said with a smirk.

"You know what get the hell out!" Gabriella said getting angry. "Your acting like an ass."

Cohen smirked again and went over to Gabriella. "I love you." He said and then attempted to kiss Gabriella on the lips, but was unsuccessful. So he just settled for a kiss on the cheek. "Don't worry you'll miss me." He said and then left.

Gabriella looked at Taylor who was still sitting by the door. Then she went over to the table and poured out her tea. While she was washing the dishes Taylor came up to her.

"Everything is going to be fine." She tried to reassure her friend again.

"I don't know why I had sex with Cohen. He was such an egotistical jerk when I went out with him. I feel so stupid."

"It's alright we all make mistakes."

Gabriella dropped the dish that she was washing. And looked at Taylor with her eyes wide. She put her hand on her stomach, and bent down.

"Are you alright? Do you need to go to the hospital?" She was about to go get help when Gabriella stopped her.

"No!" She said with a smile on her face. "I think the baby just kicked."
