Okay so I hope you forgive me, but I lost internet, again. For like a week, maybe more. It was killing me but I got some good writing in. And I finished Eclispe!! It's amazing!! I hope you like the chapter.
Disclaimer: I don't own anything.
"Thank you Gabi," Jack said. "I promise I will get him a tutor and make sure he actually studies, as long as it doesn't cut into basketball time." We all laughed.
"how do you think they're doing?" I asked. Occasional thumps were being heard from the ceiling.
"As long as they don't break anything they'll be fine. They're both tough," Lucy said. Suddenly there was a big crash. We all stood up and ran up the stairs without saying a word. Checking each room we found them in Hannahs room, nothing was wrong, only there wasn't a door.
"What did you two do," Jack asked in his fatherly voice.
They both started on different stories but I'm guessing Hannah locked Troy out and Troy somehow broke down the door.
"You two are both grounded for a week and you're paying for the new door. Now get downstairs so we can finish dinner," Lucy said half yelling and half well I'm not sure what else.
"Sorry mom," They both mumbled and walked downstairs. I followed them while Jack and Lucy stayed behind to pick up the pieces of wood.
"I don't even want to know how you broke that door down," I said as we sat back down and continued eating like nothing happened.
"What happened when we were chasing each other?" Hannah asked. "Or Troy was chasing me!"
"You deserved it," He said.
"I told your parents the whole story and your dad begged me to help Troy study and guess what? I finally gave in," I said.
"Yes! Thank you so much Gabriella!!" Troy ran up and hugged me. I think he noticed that I tensed up a little because he let go and stood off to the side awkwardly.
"That was such a stupid thing to do Troy," Hannah said. "Go up and squeeze the living daylights out of your ex-girlfriend who you broke up with not even a month ago." He sat back down and glared at his sister.
"Well Hannah you won't have a door for a little while so we're going to hang a curtain there for now. Let's finsh eating in a peaceful way," Jack said. Once everyone was sitting the normal dinner started.
"I want to thank you again for helping Troy Gabi," Jack said for the tenth time.
"It's fine, but only this once," I said.
"We understand, don't we Troy," Jack said. Troy looked up from his food clueless. "We understand right?"
"Understand what?"
"That Gabi helping you is a one time thing because of what you did," Jack said.
"Yeah," Troy said sadly. "Don't remind me."
I went home that night with a very weird story that I could tell one day, maybe. But nothing else happened, I talked with the rest of the gang for a little bit before going to bed.
The next morning I woke up and realized it was Sunday and I forgot to turn off my alarm. So I went back to bed only to be awaken again by the phone. "Hello?"
"Hi Gabi, my mom wanted to now if you wanted to go out to lunch with us, and by that she means she's ordering pizza and then you can come back and help my retard of a brother," Hannah said happily.
"Yeah sure whatever. What time is it?"
"It's around eleven right now. The pizza should be here in like an hour because my mom hasn't ordered it yet," Hannah said in the same voice.
"What happened," I asked.
"I got a boyfriend!!"
"I'll be over in a little bit and you're telling me everything," I said getting up and dragging myself to the shower.
"Thanks Gabi because there's also a little problem that comes with it," She said. "Okay I'll be waiting but hurry!!" I just hung up and started the shower.
"Gabriella?" Troy asked opening the door.
"Hi I'm here to help your sister. Where is she?" I asked walking in the house. I didn't even dare look at him because there's no telling what he would look like.
"She's upstairs in her room pacing and talking to herself." I ran up the stairs before he could finish the sentence.
"Gabi!" Hannah ran over to me and pulled me so we were sitting on the floor facing each other.
"What's the problem, you should be happy you've got your first boyfriend and in the ninth grade! Mine was well it was almost right before your brother," I said thinking about the one other boyfriend I had before Troy.
"Okay but anyways, so there's this guy and he's new and he's so cute! And so sweet! We've already been on a couple of dates but his first day of school was Thursday and you know how we have cliques?"
"Yeah," I said. "Well we don't really have them anymore."
"In my grade we do because we just got out of that and we're in totally different cliques, what should I do?"
"Be with him, if you really like him then just do it. Don't think about what anyone will say, if you're happy then that's all that matters. And don't let your friends get to you, you'll only hurt him. I know from expirence," I said.
"Yeah that and my stupid brother," She said.
"Look don't be like your brother, cliques don't matter, look at my friends, we're all different and everyone but me is in love," I said.
"I still can't believe that my brother broke up with you, he was soooo stupid, no way am I going to be like him and break up with Drew," She said. "I still want to kill him I mean he didn't even have a reason." Hannah kept on going with her rant and didn't notice her brother walk in.
"Hannah," I said.
"What?" I turned her shoulders around and made her look at her brother. "Oh, hi Troy," She said.
"Gabi's right, don't be like me, just be happy. And another thing, don't try something you don't know the result of," He said. "Pizza's here."
"Wow," I said once he was gone.
"Now do you think he's missing you?" Hannah asked me. I shook my head and shrugged. "Well he does and he's going to try and get you back. Come on, I'm getting hungry."
"One more thing," I said. "Well two, when's your next date, and is he cute?"
"Gabi!"
"What, I want to know? I'm an unofficial big sister here," I said defending myself.
"The next date is tonight and yes he's amazingly cute." She said and ran down the stairs probably not wanting to answer any more of my questions.
Lunch was normal, no chasing and no breaking of doors. It was around one by the end of lunch so Hannah and I just hung out around the house until it was time for her date.
"What am I going to wear," Hannah asked. She was running around with her hair still up in a towel with shorts and a tank top on.
"Where is he taking you?"
"dinner and movie," She said. "But his brother is driving us."
"Okay then wear some nice jeans and this shirt," I said holding up a silk black halter top. "And if it get's cold you have this." I handed her one of the jackets and pushed her into the bathroom. "Hurry we don't want your hair to dry like that!"
"How do I look," She asked coming out of the bathroom.
"Great now time for your hair," I said pushing her back into the bathroom and grabbing the blow dryer. "Do you want it down?"
"What's the weather?"
"I think it's supposed to be windy," I said thinking back to the weather it had on my computer. "We'll put it half up half down." I got to work on her hair and make up and we were done.
"Wow, who knew my sister could actually look good," Troy said leaning on the door frame and pushing the curtain aside.
"Shut up Troy," She said. "Thank you Gabi, are you sure you're okay with being alone with this thing tonight?" Jack and Lucy went out too but they had left already.
"Yes I will be fine but you know when he gets here I'm going into sister mode right? Like protective sister mode?"
"Do you have to?"
"That's my job," Troy said.
"I knew you were a girl but I think Gabi's better qualified," Hannah said. We both started laughing at his face. "He should be here any minute."
"Come on, we'll wait downstairs." All three of us walked down the stairs and sat somewhere by the door. When the doorbell actually rang I was first to get there.
Okay so I'm not going to go into a lot of detail about her date, probably no detail at all unless you want me to. But please review, I had a lot of time to work on this.
Amanda!
