So on with the next chapter

I don't own... blah blah blah you know the drill

Chapter 5

Gabriella sat alone in her hospital bed. Soon Troy, Nurse Jenny and a Doctor entered the room. The Doctor entered and went straight over to the monitor. He looked worried.

"Will you please tell me what is wrong?" asked Gabriella nervously.

"Oh, sorry, Miss. Montez, your baby is having difficulty breathing, we have two options; number one is an operation which is high risk but could save her life or take it, or number two which is to wait and see what happens, she may not live long or she will have some difficulties breathing later on in life" said the Doctor softly. Gabriella tried to take in what the Doctor was saying, either way she could lose her precious little girl. Her mom then entered the room. Gabi tried to tell her what was wrong but she broke down crying. The Doctor explained as Troy comforted Gabriella.

"Miss. Montez I know this is a shock but looking at the readings from the breathing moniter I believe the best option is surgery, however the final choice is yours" he said trying to be sympathetic "I will be back in ten minutes and we will need to know if you are having surgery, I'm sorry" with that he left the room. Troy was gently rubbing Gabi's back as she sat bolt upright, she was frozen.

"Gabi, honey, what are you going to do?" asked her mom. Eventually Gabi answered.

"I..I'll have the surgery.. my baby won't survive without it" she sobbed. Troy was now visibly upset as well. He was trying to appear strong for Gabriella, yet inside he was crying.

Outside the operating room 30 minutes later

Troy paced the halls while his parents and Gabriella's mom, Adele, sat talking with Troy's parents. He couldn't sit still. All his emotions for Gabi were flooding back into him as he waited for her operation to finish. He finally sat down and buried his face in his hands. After what seemed like an eternity the surgeon who was in charge of Gabi's operation came out. He walked over to Adele, Troy and his parents. Troy sat up, his eyes were red from crying.

"Is she okay, both of them?" he asked quickly.

"Gabriella is fine and the baby is doing well too, however we will have to be very cautious, Gabriella must be very inactive until the baby is born" said the surgeon.

"Can we see her?" asked Adele.

"Yes, but she is still asleep, she should be awake in about 20 minutes" said the surgeon. They followed him to Gabriella's room where she lay still. Troy walked straight over to her. He gently brushed her hair out of her eyes. Adele and Troy's parents looked at each other, both of them knew how much Troy cared not just about the baby, but about Gabi.

When Gabriella woke up she found Troy sitting right next to her, he breathed a sigh of relieve and kissed her on her forehead. Gabriella was very groggy yet she was determined to know how the operation went.

"Is she okay?" she asked

"Shhh, she's fine and so are you, you will need to be very inactive until she is born however" Troy said while gently stroking her hair. Gabriella felt so loved, and yet where was Ryan, at that moment she knew that if Ryan really loved her he would have been there somehow.

"Are you glad we will have our own little girl?" she asked quietly.

'I'm thrilled, I can't wait to hold her in my arms" he said. Adele then entered the room.

"Mom" Gabriella said happily. Her mom hugged her and smiled.

"Gabi I'm so glad you are okay, and you know what?" she said to her daughter.

"What?" asked Gabi.

"I think Troy is going to be a perfect dad, the way he was so worried about you during the operation, and the tears poor boy" she said while smiling. Troy blushed when she mentioned that he cried. Gabi smiled.

"Was mister playmaker upset?" she asked while putting on a baby voice. She smiled. Adele then left to go home, it was late and her daughter had a perfect gentleman to look after her. She said her goodbyes and patted Gabi's stomach ever so gently.

"Troy will you stay with me?" asked Gabi.

"Already arranged a fold-up bed for tonight, I would never leave you all alone at night" he said proudly "However I will have to go to school tomorrow" he said reluctantly.

"That's fine, you can get my homework for me" she beamed.

"Only you would ask for homework in hospital" he said grinning.

The next morning Gabriella rang Ryan, she was planning on asking him to come in to tell him face-to-face that she had chosen Troy but he started to get on her nerves, she decided to tell him over the phone.

"Fine so you won't come in then" stated Gabriella on the phone to Ryan.

"Look Gabs I wish I could but Shar wants me to drive her to school this morning, and we have drama first thing" he said trying not to sound to mean.

"Well I'll tell you over the phone then, I've chosen Troy, he was the one there when I had to have an operation and he is the one I love, I'm sorry, look I gotta go, bye" Gabriella hung up the phone feeling kind of bad for dumping him over the phone.

Ryan's P.O.V.

Ryan stood with the phone pressed against his ear unable to move.

"Ryan let's go!" shouted Sharpay from downstairs. He hung up and went downstairs.

"Finally! now at drama today..." she trailed off noticing how glum her brother looked.

"Gabi just dumped me, she's now with Troy" he said sadly.

"What!?" Sharpay shouted "Why would she choose him over you?" she asked looking puzzled.

"I can't say, no one at school can find out.." Ryan mumbled.

"Ry look at me, you can tell me anything" she said. Ryan took a deep breath.

"Gabriella is pregnant with Troy's baby and now shes in hospital 'cause of some problems with it" Ryan said quickly.

"She's what?!" Sharpay was stunned. As the twins headed off to school, Sharpay was thinking, she could use this piece of information to hold over Troy and Gabriella, today would be an interesting day.

The next chapter will focus on what happens when Troy goes to school and finds out Sharpay knows now- Want to know what happens- read the next chapter:)
