Memories

She was scared. The two lines that stood out from the white stick haunted her. She was shocked. Terrified. She could not tell him. After all that he's been through. She just has to keep it a secret. Tears were pouring down her cheeks. She was alone. The comfort that she was needing was gone, because she could not tell him. She stood up from her spot in the middle of her en-suite and looked into her mirror, determined. She had to get away. Away from everyone. She just could not take it. She went out the door of the bathroom, finding a bag to put her belongings that she needed. She was running away. Running away from him.

She was still away from him. That decision that she made was still bothering her. Had she made the right choice? Her heart was empty. Leaving him was hard for her. She could not recover for the fact that she may never see her true love again.

They met at her first year in East High School, Albuquerque. They were both sophomores, naive, happy, content. They dated after three months of knowing each other. She was ecstatic when he had shyly asked her out.

Gabriella was looking inside her locker, searching to see if she had missed one of her books that she was acquired to get. Gazing into the locker, she felt arms wrapping around her head, covering her eyes.

"Guess who!" the husky voice went.

"Hello to you too, Troy." She giggled and went out of his grasp. "Out of practice early?"

"Yeah. Dad was kind enough," he grinned and turned her around to face him.

"Troy!" she squealed quietly.

"Are you doing anything tonight?" he whispered to her.

"Why?" she asked, clearly confused.

"Umm...I was wondering...well..." he stammered.

"Spit it out, Troy." She smiled reassuringly to him.

"D-do y-you wanna go o-out on a-a date?" he smiled shyly at her.

"Of course I will!" she said happily.

Since then, they could never stay away from each other.

The first time they said 'I love you' to each other was a beautiful memory. They were on their tenth date, because both of them were busy most of the time. He had surprised her with a picnic in their local park, their area shaded by a gazebo which he decorated with twinkling lights. It was 6:00 pm so the sun was setting. She was awestruck at the scene which her boyfriend had made.

"Do I have to keep this on?" says an impatient Gabriella. She was wearing a black blindfold that was irritating her eyes. "Yes, you have to," says a smug Troy, "Now, walk forward...stop. Stay there."

They were at the park, well, Gabriella doesn't know because Troy had the blindfold put since she stepped onto her doorstep. Troy wanted to surprise her with the picnic he made (with the help of his friends, of course).

"Okay Ella, you can take it off now!"

"Finally!" she said, unfolding the blindfold. "Why did I have to..." her voice trailed off at the sight of the gazebo.

"You like it?" he asked, nervous.

"I love it!" she exclaimed, "Wow, Troy. How did you do this?"

"Umm...I asked the gang to help me."

Their gang consists of Chad, Taylor, Kelsi, Ryan, Sharpay, Zeke and of course, them. They were the best of friends.

"This is amazing, Troy." She turned away from the gazebo, grinning madly, to find that Troy was right in front of her, so close that she can feel his hot breath on her face. She smiled a bit. Everything was perfect.

"You know what?" Troy asked, as he lean closer to Gabriella, touching her forehead.

She grinned as he touched her forehead, "What?"

"I love you Ella."

She smiled softly before their lips touch.

"I love you too, Wildcat."

The night was magical to the both of them.

The little baby in her arms started to stir. She looked down to find that the angel was now awake, the soft brown and electric blue staring right at her.

"Hey, little girl," She whispered. The angel made a gurgling noise at the sound of Gabriella's voice.

"I know," she kissed her nose, "I miss daddy, too."
