Remove my pride
This was an idea i had and decided to write it..
Review and let me know if i should go on x
"So, your plan worked" Taylor said sitting down at a table in the coffee shop with her drink.
"Yeah, he stood up, i can't help but feel bad though" Gabriella said joining Taylor
"why? Gabi you helped him" Taylor said
"Yeah but..i dont know, Taylor you didn't see his face, he was obviously in pain and really scared."
"But that's only to be expected"
"I guess" Gabriella sipped her hot drink "Oh" Gabriella said pulling the cup from her lips "I know someone who has a crush on you"
Taylor sat in shock "What!?! Who?!?"
"Chad Danforth!" Gabriella smiled knowingly
"Tell me everything!" Taylor said earnestly.
"Well, i was looking after Troy when Chad and Sharpay walked in..." Gabriella started
"As in Troy's best friend and the most popular girl in East High?" Taylor interupted
"Yes...anyway we started talking i told them about CFY and then i brought up i was coming to meet you and Sharpay let slip, Chad fancied you" Gabriella finished
Taylor sat shocked
"So do you like him back?" Gabriella wondered
"HECK NO!" Taylor exclaimed "Im just intrigued, i mean a jock fancies ...me! a geek" Taylor said her mouth dropping.
Gabriella laughed. "Whatever loser" She looks at her watch "Damn! i better get back"
"Ooooh let me come! I want to see if Chad's still there!" Taylor said standing up with Gabriella.
"Right...but don't you have a patient too?" Gabriella said
"Yeah but he is 93 years old, he won't miss me" Taylor replied as they left the coffee shop and headed back over to the hospital.
-With Troy-
"So where's Zeke, Shar?" Troy wondered
"Um...he is baking something for a cousins wedding" Sharpay replied with a smile.
"It's cool you and Zeke are dating" Chad said
"Hmm...So Troy, you seem to like Gabriella" Sharpay said sitting on the edge of his bed.
"No.." Troy said.
"Don't lie man..!" Chad said "It's obvious"
"Yeah, come on Troy, i'm the only girl in our little group, i know if you fancy someone, i know you too well" Sharpay remarked. Sharpay had a talent as a matchmaker, she had been responsible for setting her brother, Ryan up with this sammy girl in his English class just because she saw how the girl looked at him, while asking for a pencil. She had also set Jason, a guy on the basketball team up with a drama and music student called Kelsi neilson, who neither ever had a "other half" and who just needed a push in the right direction.
"Whatever" Troy mumbled as he heard a knock on the door and the door open.
"Hey Troy" Gabriella said walking in with Taylor. Troy turned to see Chad blush and hide his face slightly.
"Hi" Troy said along with Sharpay who had been trying to hide a giggle, once she had seen Chad's face.
"Hi Chad?" Gabriella said, also trying not to laugh.
"Hi..." He mumbled
"Anyway, this is Taylor McKessie, My best friend" Gabriella introduced them "Taylor, this is Sharpay, Troy and of course Chad"
"Hey Chad" Taylor said a huge grin spreading across her face.
"Hi" He said nodding his head as Taylor (deciding to tease him) dropped a pen on the floor then bent down to pick it up, revealing admittedly a bit "too" much. Chad blushed furiously and looked away embaressed while Troy, Gabriella, Sharpay and Taylor tried not to laugh.
"Anyway i better be going, see you later Gabi" Taylor said
"Your a tease" Gabriella whispered to her best friend as, she walked out of the room.
"Anyway..." Gabriella said turning her head to her patient. "How are you Troy?"
"Im good" He replied
"Oh Troy, me and Chad have got to go now" Sharpay said moving closer to him and whispering in his ear "We will talk about your little crush later"
Troy blushed uncomfortably.
Sharpay grabbed Chad's arm and began to pull him out fo the room. "See you Man" Chad called out finally recovering.
"See you Chad" Gabriella and Troy replied as they left their view.
"So..." Gabriella said sitting in the chair next to Troy.
"So..." Troy replied, squinting slightly as he adjusted himself into a upright position.
"I'm proud of you Troy" Gabriella remarked
"Why?"
"Because you have been trying" Gabriella smiled
"Yeah, well i didn't have a choice"
"Technically no..." Gabriella paused then continued "But in other ways you did"
"I did?"
"Yeah, i mean i couldn't force you to do anything" Gabriella told him "But you showed me you do want to walk...deep down, even if it's really really deep down" Gabriella laughed.
Troy smiled "Now you tell me!"
Gabriella laughed more. "Troy..don't give up ok? You have soo much to fight for.."
"Like what?"
"Well, your parents and family, your friends, your basketball team, your school and ...me" She replied gradually getting quieter towards the end.
"You?" Troy smirked intrigued "Before you answer that..." Troy said "Could you just help me sit up, it hurts like hell"
"Yeah!" Gabriella said getting up and walking to the side of the bed where she adjusted Troy's pillows and grabbed under his arms to pull him slowly up, trying to ignore his groans of pain. Once she had finished she found her face was only inches away from Troy's, looking deeply into his blue transfixing eyes. Troy looked back, leaning in more to her chocolate brown eyes. He suddenly wanted to kiss her soo much. They both moved in closer.
Suddenly, Troy's room door opened and Gabriella sprung away. "Hey!" Mr Bolton said
"Hey dad" Troy grumbled annoyed that he had interupted.
"Hey Mr Bolton" Gabriella said, somewhat relieved because a second longer and she would of kissed him.
"Jack, please Gabriella, we aren't at school right now" He smiled
"Where's mom?" Troy asked
"She went home, she will be back soon though"
Troy nodded as Gabriella took a seat at the side of his bed, making sure to pointedly ignore all of Troy's glances and stares.
-Later That night-
"Ok..I better go now" Gabriella said to Jack, Lucy and of course Troy.
"Really?" Troy asked dissapointed, he didn't know why but her just being in the room made the hospital he was in less suckish.
"Yeah and i won't be in tomorrow until 4 because i have school" Gabriella said earning another dissapointed look from Troy. She felt bed. "But...I have an idea" She said with a smile. "You have a hospital phone, so i'll ring you on it, at lunch and on my free period" Gabriella finished this time earning a smile from Troy. "See you later Troy" She said as she left the room.
As she drove home in her car she couldn't help but think about Troy and the moment they had shared in the hospital room earlier on that day, there was definetly a moment, where they were so close, their lips almost connecting. CFY workers and patient romances were not allowed, Gabriella knew that. So she had to make sure Troy knew that. Tomorrow. That Moment could never happen again, Gabriella could not get a bad report, which could damage her chances of becoming a doctor.
Gabriella sighed as she entered her house, she was exhausted, granted she hadn't done much all day, but hospitals took the energy out of you. Gabriella entered the living room and landed next to her sister on the sofa.
"Hey Gabi" Stella said not turning her head away from the t.v
"Hi Stell" Gabriella said as her mom walked in.
"Hey Gabriella...busy day?" she asked
"Not physically..Just Mentally" Gabriella sighed deeply as she felt her eyes close and the surroundings fall from around her.
Ok so not much of a chapter but...im tired, i have had a busy day at school...any ideas to what could happen next? Add it in a review :P
Love Ya xXx
