Hey this is the second chapter in the series. I am on holidays so I had a lot of spare time to write it.

Just like to say thanks to everyone who added my story to favorites, wrote me a review (they do help and make me wanna write more) and pretty much anyone who read.

Disclaimer: I don't own High School Musical if I did I would own a lot more then the ipod I am currently listening to. I don't own the nick name Baby G which of course I alternated from Baby V.

Okay this next part is when Christine and Justin come home. In this chapter I decided to do a bit of a description on the Bolton's.

Just to let you know I changed Justin's age from 2 and half to 3 and half so I can have him talking.

Part of the Family

It was 4o'clock in the afternoon Gabriella had just gotten off work and was on her to the Bolton residence. She had just gone grocery shopping; something that she made the Bolton's let her do at least once a month.

As she parked her car in the driveway she noticed that the Bolton's were yet to return from the airport so she took this as a good chance to do a couple things for them without them knowing.

Gabriella unlocked the door and turned off the alarm in one swift movement then took all the groceries into the kitchen.

Once the groceries were unpacked Gabriella decided to have a shower and get changed out of her work clothes so she wouldn't appear to be so worn out and tired. Once she reached Troy's room she realized the amount of clothes and god knows what else lying all around the room. Troy's bed was unmade; his desk had random papers everywhere. His room pretty much looked like a bomb hit it. Gabriella was soon cleaning up everything starting with his bed knowing that would take the least amount of time, once the bed was made she moved on top the desk where she sorted through all the papers, separating old from new and Troy's from hers (although since she was a bit more organized there wasn't many of hers). After fixing up the photos on his desk and putting his books away in the small bookshelf above his desk, she moved onto the very messy floor.

After spending about a half hour sorting clean from dirty, folding up the clean tops and just doing the last finishing touches on his room, Gabriella was finally finished and extremely proud of her work You could actually see the floor. Now with a pile of dirty clothes Gabriella moved onto everyone else's bedrooms figuring if she was going to be washing clothes she may as well do theirs as well.

Just over 1 ½ hours later Gabriella was satisfied with the cleaning she had done and decided she could finally have a shower. Picking out her clothes, she made her way into the bathroom for a well needed shower.

Meanwhile with the Bolton's (note-this was going on while Gabriella was at work and cleaning up)…

"Mummmmmm, how much longer?" A very impatient Lizzie sounded.

"You just asked her that." Troy told her.

"Did not!"

"Did to!"

"Did not!"

"Did to!"

"Both of you shut up!" Jack yelled beginning to get agitated himself even though they had only been in the car an hour and a half. "We have about a half hour before we are at the airport okay!"

"Yes dad." The two siblings answered quietly.

About 5 minutes later Troy's phone started to ring with the song Because You Live by Jesse McCartney. Without even looking at the screen, not only Troy but everyone in the car knew who it was as this ring tone was only reserved for one person.

Troy/Gabbi

"Hey baby." Troy answered with a smile that you only get to see when he is talking to or about her.

"Hey"

"How's work?"

"Its fine. Just work you know. How's driving to the airport?"

"Long." Troy said with a laugh.

"Well I was just ringing up to say I was going to dot he grocery shop after work and I wanted to let you know I will be making the F.P.D for dinner if that's alright with your mum?"

"I'll ask hold on." Troy said into the phone before turning to his mom. "Gabbi wants to know if you want her to make the F.P.D for dinner."

"Let me talk to her."

Julie/Gabbi

"Gabbi sweetie you really don't need to make dinner."

"It's okay unless you had something planned already?"

"In thought it would be easy going out to dinner but if you really want to cook I guess I can let you."

"Great well I gotta get back to it so I will see you when you get home."

"Cya sweetie. Oh hold on Troy wants to talk to."

"Hey again baby."

"Hey sweets. I have gotten get back to work can you call or text when you are leaving the airport so I know how long I have before your home?"

"OK. I will see you in a couple hours. I love you."

"I love you too. So much. Bye."

"Bye."

With that they both hung up and Troy resumed to sitting and been bored again.

"So how much longer is it?" Lizzie asked again.

"We're here. Now as the holidays just started everybody will be flying in to meet family and such so keep together. Now Christine said she would be in gate 11. So I think we should find an information desk and ask where it is so we don't get lost." Julie said trying to sound a lot more organized then she actually was.

"Mum why don't we go into the airport follow the signs to gate eleven and wait." Troy said in an irritated voice.

"Can we please just go in now?" Jack chimed in before a full blown argument of where to go would erupt.

"Fine" said a very annoyed Julie.

"Okay here we are gate eleven. Now her flight will be landing in 5 minutes so if you need the toilet or anything please go now." Jack said walking back from looking at the board that had all the flights on it.

Just over 20 minutes later the plane finally touched down and Christine and Justin walked out with only one bag. Christine, like Troy and Lizzie, has cobalt eyes that could only be red by the people who know them best. She had shoulder length, straight, dirty blonde hair that both she and Troy took from the mother unlike Lizzie who took after her dad who has brown hair. Christine is slightly taller then Troy although a bit shorter then her dad. Lizzie and Christine look exactly alike except for the hair and the fact the Christine is older by 8 years. Justin looks a lot like his mum inheriting her hair, smile and height (saying he is tall for his age) although he has green eyes that come from his father.

"Grandpa, Grandma." Justin squeezed out of his mother's hold to embrace his grandma and grandpa.

"Hey. How's my little man?" Jack asked with the biggest smile on his face as he scooped his only grandchild up into his arms.

"I'm goowd." Justin replied in a cute baby voice that makes you just want to eat him up. (I'm crazy I know lol)

"That's good." Jack soon passed Justin over to Julie to hold. (I just noticed that there are 3 J names in one family weird. Lol)

Meanwhile Troy and Lizzie wondered over to meet up with their sister.

"Hey sis." Troy said giving his big sister a hug after she put her bag down.

"Hey little bro" Christine said hugging him back. "Hey little sis." Giving Lizzie a hug. "How are the 2 most annoying people going?" Christine finished with a laugh.

"We missed you too sis." Lizzie said putting her arm around Christine to start walking. Troy picked up her bag and walked over to the rest of his family.

"Hey Justin." Troy said reaching his arms to take Justin from Julie's arms.

"Hey Uncy Twoy." Troy laughed at the fact that Justin still was capable of adding a w to nearly every word he spoke. After Justin got a hug from Lizzie, the Bolton clan started towards the car in silence although it wasn't exactly quite due to the crowds of people surrounding them.

After they reached the car park, where it was silent except for the acceleration of cars, Justin decided to ask what had been on his mind since he arrived.

"Uncy Twoy, where's Gabbi?"

Troy couldn't help but beam at the fact that his nephew was curious to where his girlfriend could be and how close they're relationship is. Before Troy even realized it, he was in his own land thinking about everything that he loves about Gabriella.

"Why isn't he answering me?" Justin asked after a few minutes of waiting for an answer that everyone realized wouldn't be coming from Troy.

"He's off in Troy land. You got him thinking of Gabriella. He will be off with the pixies for a while." Lizzie told her nephew quietly.

"Oh. I don't get it." Justin had confused look on his face trying to make sense of what his aunt had just told him.

"Don't worry about it sweetie. Gabriella is at home she is making dinner for us. It's your favorite to." Julie intercepted the conversation.

"Yay, we should get home then so Gabbi isn't lonely." Justin said excitedly getting into his car seat.

Once all the Bolton's were in the car and on their way home Troy text Gabbi.

Hey baby

We just left the airport Justin is excited to see you.

Love Troy xxxx

A few minutes later Troy's phone vibrated signaling a message.

Hey candy,

I was going to call you sweets but then I was like that's close to what your mum calls you so your new nickname is candy till I think of a better one. Anyway ok I'm just about to go grocery shopping. I will see you in a couple hours. Oh and tell Justin that I will see him in couple hours.

Love Brie xxxx

Troy smiled to himself at how cute his girlfriend could be. Without noticing his sisters were leaning over reading the text message he had yet to close.

"You guys are so cute." Lizzie said genuinely in a nice way not in a teasing sister way.

"Yer hold onto that one she's a keeper." Christine added thinking just how lucky her brother was to find the love of his life at 18 and that the love of his life was such a fun person and never judged Christine for having a child at such a young age. You see many people whenever they meant Christine they thought very badly of her for having a child at a young age although when Gabbi met Justin and Christine she never took a second thought at the idea.

"Don't worry, I will."

It was now 5:30pm the Bolton's had got in traffic so they were taking longer then they thought they would. This made the car trip even worse.

Meanwhile back with Gabbi (its 5:30pm with her to remember that all happened when she was cleaning so she would only just be getting out of the shower.)….

After Gabriella got out of the shower she got out the outfit she had picked out earlier; skinny jeans, green flat, felt boots, a grey long sleeved top that goes puffy at the hands and is designed so it doesn't go on her shoulders but straight across about an inch or so down from her shoulders plus her favorite white jumper that is about 3 sizes to big (if you have her cd then it's the one she's in on the cover plus there is a better picture of it on the last page). She finished off the outfit with her T necklace Troy had given her. She applied light makeup- just lip gloss and mascara and did her hair in a messy bun. It was simple out fit but looked perfect for a family dinner.

Once satisfied with her look Gabbi made her way downstairs to start on dinner. Taking out all the ingredients she started mixing up the sauce and boiling the pasta. She decided to take her jumper off since she didn't want to stain it.

About ten minutes into cooking Gabbi's phone started to vibrate. Checking it she saw she got a text message.

Hey Baby G

We are stuck in traffic could be a little while. Is everything okay at home?

Love candy xxxx

P.S could you think of a new nickname my sisters are teasing me about that one lol.

Gabriella smiled and wrote back…

Hey my gorgeous wildcat (hehehe)

That's ok I just started making dinner. Mr. Sox is keeping me company (referring to his cat) Oh yer I found your boxers. They were in some weird places. Lol. See you in a little while babe.

Love Brie xxxx

P.S like your new nickname?

Gabriella continued cooking and once the sauce and pasta were down she put them in the tray to be cooked up (I'm not going to go on about the dish but just to let you know it's the best dish ever!), she started washing the pots she used and cleaning up the benches then she moved onto setting the table before she knew it, it was quarter past 6. With nothing left to do Gabriella pulled out her school books and started study, something she always did when she had nothing to do.

At around 6:30pm Gabriella received yet another text.

Hey baby G,

Sorry we are taking so long we are about 5 minutes away.

Love Wildcat xxxx

Gabriella smiled and simply text…

OK

Soon the door opened and the very agitated and tired Bolton's walked in happy to finally be able to get out of the cramped car. Gabriella quickly got up to greet them.

"Hey Brie." Troy said walking over to Gabbi wrapping his arms around her waist and giving her kiss. Gabriella slipped her arms around the back of his neck out of instinct and kissed him back. "Hey, I missed you." Gabriella whispered so only Troy could hear her.

"I missed you too" Troy said dipping down to give her another kiss before giving her a hug.

"If you guys are done I would actually like to give her a hug as well you know." Christine said interrupting their little moment.

"Hey you. I missed you. You look great." Gabriella said with a huge smile on her face and giving her a hug.

"Thanks. You too." Christine replied.

"Gabbi!!" Justin exclaimed from his Grandma's arms. He wiggled out of them and jumped into Gabbi's loving embrace.

"Hey munchkin. Look how big you've gotten." Gabbi said giving him a kiss on the cheek which he replied to with a giggle. "Are you hungry?" Gabbi asked him while carrying him to the kitchen.

A chorus of yes's was spoken by everyone.

"Well then I guess everyone you take a seat while I prepare the food."

Everyone was soon sitting down and eating happily talking about anything they could think of. Soon enough everybody's hunger needs were satisfied, dishes were cleaned, and everyone was in their pajamas in the lounge room watching TV with the exception of Justin who had gone to bed. Jack, Julie and Lizzie were all on the 3 seater couch which sits directly opposite the TV with Jack and middle and the girls leaning the heads on his arms. Christine curled herself up on the single couch with a blanket and Troy and Gabriella were on the 2 seater, Troy laying down on his back with his head looking at the TV and his legs over the other end of the couch and Gabriella on her side with her back to the back of the couch, legs crossed slightly and her head resting on his chest while her hand was entwined with his, his other hand gently stroking her hair. Both drifting off to sleep.

Everything was truly perfect…

There we go chapter 2 like it? Hate it? Let me know if you don't like it then say it nicely please.

Constructive criticism always welcomed.

I decided I would do a full story although they will seem more like a bunch of one-shots or two shots.

Anyway thanks for reading. I will be starting school soon again so I wont be updating as much probably one a week depending on homework.
