Hey mom I said coming into the kitchen Hi sweetie she said giving me a kiss on the cheek whats for dinner I asked her. Oh I'm making your favorite shrimp alfredo……yum I said taking a sit at the counter... mom can I ask you a personal question. 'sure she said …okay how old were you when you lost your virginity I said in one breath……she looked at me intensely making me squirm a little bit. Then she finally spoke, truthfully I didn't have sex until I was married…. gabby honey are you thinking about having sex with Chad?………… I nodded my head

You know what I could forbid you from leaving this house and tell you, your not to see him ever again but I'm not going to do that because your 17 years old and although I don't want you to have sex it something I can't control…..mom why did you wait until you were married I questioned…….I was just not ready don't get, me wrong I had tons of boyfriends but none of them ever felt right until your father came alone and when he kissed me I knew he was the one it just felt right now sweetie I don't know how you feel about Chad but if you are questioning have sex with him then there is probably a good reason why only thing I can say now babe is to follow your heart and instincts they will tell you what to do she said smiling at me I smiled back thanks mom……..and um one more question how old were you and dad when you got married…..she smiled eighteen she said I laughed

Hello how are my beautiful girls doing my dad said walking into the kitchen he gave me a hug then went to mom and gave her a kiss I looked at them with pride and I couldn't help but feel extremely happy for my parents after 20 yrs of marriage they still loved each other and I knew it must have been hard on them being married at only eighteen and having me only 3 yrs later but threw it all that they made it…..I wondered about my future I started to think about me and Chad being married and having kids but instead of biracial kids with curly brown hair I say a blue eyed kids with sandy brown hair …………….

I was confused about my feelings for Gabriella and Chad so I went to the one person I could talk to my mom . She was sitting down watching TV in the family room when I walked up to her.

Hey mom can we talk I asked sure she said putting the TV on mute whats up…………..mom I have a problem what if you had friend actually she was your best frien and you were in love with her boyfriend the person that was suppose to be the love of her life I looked up to my mom and her face was completely white…… mom are you okay I asked 'who told you she gasped 'what I exclaimed! who told me what, my mom looked down…..

I guess you would have found out eventually she said that's how me and your father got together I looked at her with wide eyes.. Yea go figure right she laughed you want to know the story I shook my head yeah….okay she began I was the new kid at school when I met your father and Melissa Robinson me and Melissa clicked automatically we became inseparable, but so did your father and I... when I first seen your father it was like love at first sight he had the most amazing blue eyes you'd see in your life and they kind of pierced threw my soul a little bit you both share that trait those electric blue eyes I've never seen anyone with eyes that color before, but anyway that's not part of the story well like I said it was love at first sight for me and your father but we couldn't do anything about it because Melissa was my best friend and his girlfriend …..

I felt so guilty about feeling that way for him so I kind of avoided him and started dating other guys trying to forget him. Well that didn't work it was the summer after we graduated from high school and me and my boyfriend at the time his name was Ted were really serious and we decided to get married at the end of the summer

That didn't happen obviously, it was the night before my wedding and I was sitting in my room thinking about how the hell was I going to get through life without Jake Bolton when guess who came in my room telling me that he couldn't keep it in his heart any more telling me I couldn't marry Ted and how much he was in love with me. at that moment I knew I could either get married tomorrow and live unhappily ever after with a man that I knew I wouldn't be able to give my heart to completely or I could run away with Jake and live with the man of my dreams but it the process throw away a three year friendship. I loved Melissa and I loved Ted but I wasn't in love with him and that was a big difference so I followed my heart and hoped god and Melissa would forgive me.

I told your father I loved him and that we had exactly one hour to get out of Albuquerque. He was so happy that he kind of tackled me to the bed and gave me my first real kiss well I'm not going to go into details lets just say Melissa caught us in a very compromising position and that was the end of our friendship….

Whoa mom I never knew that about you and dad I said

Well its something I'm not really proud of she told me

Well what happened to Melissa? I asked

Melissa married Ted and they had twins a boy and girl named Sharpay and Ryan she said with a laugh ironic isn't it

I looked at her I was completely flabbergasted my mom almost married Ryan and Sharpay's dad that was crazy

But listen to me sweetie I took a leap on love and I wouldn't change that for the world I love your father more and more each day and sometimes I wonder what would have happened if he hadn't came into my room that day. Listen when you love somebody you are willing to do anything to be with that person so whoever you are in love with just follow your heart and don't think about anything else but your heart

I looked at my mom with a new light her and my dad had a special relationship that I hoped I would have someday have with the girl of my dreams.

I gave my mom a hug told her I loved her and went to my room I had a lot to think about……………………………..
