Gabriella woke up in a cold sweat. She turned over and looked at Troy who was sleeping right beside her. She took three deep breathes and then lied back down.

"Are you okay?" Troy asked still half way asleep.

"How did you know something was wrong?" Gabriella asked sitting up on the bed.

"I can feel you moving. Now what's wrong?" Troy asked with his eyes still closed.

"I had a bad dream that Taylor died." Gabriella said putting a piece of loose hair behind her ear.

"How many times do I have to tell you. Taylor is going to be fine. They got her to stay alive. She's just in a coma." Troy said opening his eyes.

"I know, but that doesn't count. The only reason they consider her still alive is because she is breathing, and a machine is doing that for her."

"Yes, but they said that she might pull through. Just give her a couple of days." Troy said now fully awake. He sat up on the bed and put his arm around Gabriella's shoulder.

Gabriella put her head against Troy's chest. "I just don't know what I'd do without Taylor. She has always been there for me. Well, ever since I moved here."

"I know what you mean." Troy said while resting his chin on the top of Gabriella's head. "But I've known Taylor since kindergarten and she is a fighter."

"Yeah, I just can't believe this happened. One minute she was here telling me everything is going to be okay. Then the next I get a call that she was in a car accident."

"Yeah, how did the car accident happen?" Troy asked. He forgot to ask when he first went to the hospital. He was to busy finally getting back together with Gabriella.

"They don't know. The cops say that she was crying, and her vision must have gotten blurred. Then the car swerved into the pole. Thank god Chad was there or Taylor would be dead for sure."

"Really?" Troy said surprised. Something about that story did not seem right to him. "Do you know why she was crying?" Troy asked wanting to get to the bottom of really happened.

"They think it's because she didn't get into Harvard. She went to the interview, but they denied her." Gabriella said sadly. "That was always Taylor's dream."

"I know she has been talking about Harvard for as long as I can remember." Troy said smiling. He loved remembering back in the olden days when it was just him and Taylor. Way before Chad and Gabriella entered the picture.

Gabriella took Troy's hand into hers. "Troy what is your dream?" She asked looking up at him.

Troy paused and thought about what he was just asked. "My dream was to go to college and get into the NBA."

"What do you mean was?" Gabriella said getting a little upset.

"I don't think that dream will come true with this baby on the way." Troy said truthfully. He soon regretted what he had just said.

Gabriella took her hands out of Troy's and got off of his chest. "Oh my god." She said with a tear running down her face. "I crushed your dreams." She sobbed.

"Wait, what?" Troy said as he watched his fiance's whole mood just change.

"This baby and I are killing your dreams."

"No." Troy said looking at Gabriella. "That was my dream." Troy re-stated. "I have a new dream now, and that is to marry you and have this baby. I want us to have a family."

"Your just saying that to make me stop crying." Gabriella said emotionally. "Troy I don't want us to be married and you regret it. I need to know that you really want this."

Troy got really close to Gabriella. He was so close it looked like they were about to kiss. "Gabriella, I want you to become Mrs. Gabriella Bolton, and I want for us to have this baby. I don't mind having to put my old dreams behind me."

"Are you sure?" Gabriella asked Troy for the last time.

"I am sure." He said very happy.

Gabriella leaned in and gave Troy a wet affectionate kiss on the lips. "I love you, Troy Bolton." She whispered in his ear.

"I love you too, soon-to-be Mrs. Gabriella Bolton." He said hugging her thighs tightly. "Now, can we go to bed? I have to wake up early in the morning."

"Sorry for waking you." She said lying back down on her side of the bed.

"I would stay up all night if I had to." Troy said closing his eyes and yawning.


Back At The Hospital:

"Thank you for coming to this doctor appointment." Gabriella said with a smile. "I totally forgot that I had scheduled it."

"It's alright I wouldn't miss it for the world. Plus, it's the perfect way to get out of school." He said grabbing Gabriella's wrist and swinging her toward him.

Gabriella smiled. She couldn't help, but be happy that life was finally going her way. "You do know that everybody is staring at us, right."

Troy looked around the waiting room. He watched as a woman looked at them in disgust and covered her little boys eyes. "Well, lets give them something to really look at." He said ans then gave Gabriella a tender kiss on the lips.

"Excuse me!" Doctor Lipter said walking into the waiting room. "You two do know that I do have other patience, right?" She said with a playful smile.

Troy and Gabriella got off of one another.

"Sorry." Gabriella said while she rubbed her lips. She still had a huge smile on her face as she said it.

"No your not." Doctor Lipter laughed. "Now, It's just a routine check up and I know that you two have to get on to school. So I'm making my other patience wait."

"Thank You." Troy said as he took Gabriella's hands.

"Now, lets go so I can get to all of my other patience.

Gabriella and Troy followed the doctor hand and hand. Gabriella was trying to seem professional, but she couldn't stop smiling. Her life was perfect, except the fact that her friend was hanging on to dear life.

"Now, we will do a routine check up and then I will do a sonogram. So Troy if you could just leave and my nurse will come and get you when we are finished."

Troy nodded and kissed Gabriella on the forehead.

It took about a half and hour and when the nurse finally told him he could come back in. Gabriella was already to have the sonogram. Troy went over to Gabriella and took her hand.

"Hey." He said looking at her stomach. He couldn't believe how big she was getting, but he made sure not to stare.

"Hey, are you ready to see our baby?" She asked exhausted.

"Can't wait." He said truthfully.

Doctor Lipter put the gel on Gabriella's stomach. "So do you two want to know what the sex of your baby is?" She asked with a smile. She had to admit this was one of the perks of her job.

"Yes." Gabriella said with a smile. "What are we having?"

"Well, Ms. Montez and Mr. Bolton, you two are having a baby girl."

Gabriella didn't think that her smile could get any better until than. "We are having a baby girl?" She said not believing what she had just heard. She thought for sure that she was having a boy.

Troy gave Gabriella another kiss on the cheek. "I'm going to have three beautiful girls in my life." He said proudly.

Just than somebody knocked on the door.

Doctor Lipter did something with the machine and then shut it off. "Well, I have your pictures of the baby in my office. If you would wait inside the waiting room for them that would be nice." She said with a smile.

Gabriella got up and put her shirt down. "Alright." She said with a smile. Nothing could bring down the day that she was having.

Troy helped her off of the Cochin. And when she finally got down he kissed her softly on her lips. Then they walked hand and hand into the waiting room.

But in that moment everything changed...

As they walked hand and hand, while smiling Gabriella was the first to see Ms. Woodsberry who was being held by Mr. McKessie. She was crying.

Chad was on the floor crying as well.

"What's wrong?" Troy asked scared to know the answer.

Mr. McKessie looked up and looked at Troy. "Taylor died about ten minutes ago." He said with tears in his eyes.

Just than Gabriella's smile that had been there all day turned into a frown. She couldn't believe what she was hearing. "No!" She screamed. She started to walk over to the door where Taylor was lying in the coma yesterday.

"No, she's still alive." Gabriella said in denial. "She is in there and she is going to make it!" She screamed.

Troy went over to Gabriella and hugged her. "Everything is going to be, okay." He said while crying himself. "You need to calm down it's not good for the baby."

"Troy, she's not dead. She can't be dead!" She cried into his chest. "She was just there when we walked in."
