Chapter 15

Recap

"Troy what were you doing? Are you trying to kill yourself?" Gabriella scolded.

"If that's what it takes to get you to talk to me again." Troy said with a sweet smile that Gabriella could never resist.

"You really worked on your pick up lines!" Gabriella giggled, completely forgetting why she got angry with him in the first place.

"So do you forgive me now?" He said, wrapping his arms around Gabriella's waist.

"How could I resist those blue eyes of yours." She smiled and kissed him lightly on the lips.

"Don't worry! I like your tattoo too!" Troy chuckled as they pulled away.

"Ok love birds! Break it up!" Chad yelled causing the pair to groan.

"Wow Gabi! You forgave him that quickly?" Taylor giggled.

"Who could resist his ocean blue eyes?" Gabriella giggled as well.

"What are you talking about?" The girls said in unison. Troy turned around and the girls finally saw his eyes.

"Wow! Your eyes are blue! They look so much better!" Sharpay squealed.

"I know ey?" Gabriella agreed.

For the last few minutes, all they did was chill and do nothing.

"So guys, I don't want to ask this but when are you gonna tell your parents about your relationship?" Kelsi asked softly.

"We don't know yet." Gabriella admitted.

"I guess we'll find the right time." Troy shrugged not really care.

"Anyway, you look hot Gabi." Troy suddenly said, making Gabriella blush furiously.

"Was that really necessary to say?" Gabriella mumbled, nudging him by the ribs.

"Just telling the truth." Troy said as he wrapped his arms around Gabriella.
"Awww…" The gang cooed.

--------------------------

Troy and Gabriella arrived home just in time for dinner.

"I smell something nice!" Gabriella giggled and ran to the kitchen. She suddenly stopped when she saw Grandma Lyn.

"Ohh hi grandma!" Troy greeted while Gabriella just smiled.

"Where were you guys?" Carla asked as the whole family started eating.

"We went to Sharpay's place." Gabriella answered and smiled at Troy.

"Was it fun?" Jack asked.

"Yes it was!" Troy answered without hesitation.

"You guys are becoming close than I expected." Grandma Lyn said not looking anyone straight in the eye.

"What do you mean Grandma?" Troy said, getting angry at his grandma's tone.

"I'm just saying that you've never been so close with anyone before you met Gabriella." Grandma Lyn said with a calm voice.

"I'm full!" Troy said and walked up to his room.

"I'm sorry about Troy, mom." Jack said, apologetically.

"Its alright. He'd always been like that." Grandma Lyn said.

"Why don't you go and talk to Troy, Gabi?" Carla said quietly.

"Ok." Gabriella quickly went to Troy's room only to find him leaning on his balcony rail.

"Troy?" Gabriella called out and walked over to him.

"Yeah?" He asked, as if nothing happened.

"Why did you ran off like that?" Gabriella asked, standing next to him.

"Because my grandma seems like she doesn't want you to hang out with me." He answered truthfully.

"I'm sure your grandma didn't mean it like that." She said but deep inside, she was also doubting.

"Look. My grandma is very hard to impress. She didn't really like my mom at first. She wanted my dad to be with someone else." He explained and Gabriella nodded in understanding.

"If she found out about us, she will not be happy." Troy sighed while Gabriella bowed her head down.

------------------------

Its Saturday again and Jack and Carla planned to have a break from work and just stay in Grandma Lyn's house so Carla could get to know her better.

"So, don't do anything stupid Troy? Don't get into a fight and please keep the house as it is when we come back." Jack said while Gabriella just silently laughed at Troy.

"I'll try dad." Troy shrugged.

"Be a good girl ok Gabi?" Carla said as they head out of the door.

"So, what do you want to do now? The house is all ours Gabi." Troy said, wiggling his eyebrows.

"What are you thinking you dirty boy!" Gabriella giggled and walked over to the couch.

"Nothing." Troy smiled and followed Gabriella.

"How about we go out to the cinema?" Troy suggested and Gabriella smiled.

"Sure! That would be great!" Gabriella said as they both head outside.

----------------------

Jack, Carla and Grandma Lyn finally arrived at their destination.

"Jack, you can show Carla where you'll be staying." Grandma Lyn said and Jack quickly obeyed.

Jack didn't feel like eating that night because he was still full. Grandma Lyn and Carla were the only one in the dining room and eating quietly.

"Have you been watching your daughter and Troy lately?" Grandma Lyn started.

"What do you mean?" Carla asked, confused.

"They're awfully close and Troy had never been close to anyone except if he likes the girl." Grandma Lyn explained.

"Are you saying that they have a relationship other than being brothers and sisters?" Carla asked curiously.

"I've watched how Troy acted this past few days and I'm sure there's something between them. I don't want to jump into conclusions though." Grandma Lyn said while Carla just quieted down and thought about it.

-----------------------

"So, what do you want to watch?" Troy asked.

"I don't know, you choose!" Gabriella said.

"There's nothing good to watch. How about we just go to the park?" Troy said and Gabriella just shrugged in response.

"I really love this tree for some reason." Gabriella said, as they laid on the big tree in the park.

"If you're looking for me, you'll always find me under this tree." Troy said as he wrapped his arm around Gabriella.

"You're not planning to run away, are you?" Gabriella asked, worriedly.

"No way! Now that I found you? Why would I run away?" Troy said making Gabriella blush.

---------------------

Jack got a call from his work needing him to come back immediately.

"Who called?" Carla asked.

"It was my secretary. I need to go back." Jack sighed.

"I'm gonna come back with you." Carla offered but Jack just shook his head.

"You don't need to Carla. You can stay here if you want." Jack reasoned as he smiled at Carla.

"Its ok Jack. I'm a little worried about Gabriella and Troy too." Carla said.

"I hope Grandma Lyn is wrong." Carla thought deeply.

---------------------

"Gabriella, ask you something? What did you like about me?" Troy asked seriously.

"I answered that question long time ago. The real question is, what did you like about me?" Gabriella asked curiously.
"I don't know." Troy shrugged making Gabriella frown.

"You're so rude." Gabriella said, slapping his arm.

"Ok fine. You're nice, kind, friendly umm.. I hate to admit this but your beautiful." Troy chuckled, receiving another slap.

"What do you mean you hate to admit it!" Gabriella whined playfully.

"Just kidding." Troy said, still chuckling.

"Answer my question now." He ordered.

"Ok. I like your personality." She said without hesitation.

"Oh yeah? What's my personality?" He asked curiously.

"You're rude, bad tempered, impolite, you have no respect to people, you're a bully, you're mean…" She paused and looked over at Troy who was glaring at her playfully.

"You're a true, big, Devil!!" Gabriella exclaimed and ran for her life.

"Come back here!" Troy said, pretending to be angry.

Troy caught up with her and spun her around.

"I'm a devil huh?" Troy said, finally setting her down.

"Yup! Opposites attract!" She giggled and faced him, wrapping her arms around Troy's neck.

"Are you saying you're an angel?" He raised his eyebrow.

"Yup!" She laughed.

"Yeah right! You're the most evil girl I know!" Troy said, pinching her nose.

"Oh you love me too much Troy!" Gabriella exclaimed.

"Unfortunately, no." He said, with fake sadness that Gabriella didn't really catch.

"What?" She asked, shocked and sad.

"I am crazily, completely, absolutely in love with you, Gabriella Montez!" Troy said, kissing her on the lips. Gabriella smiled and just drowned in the kiss.

Troy and Gabriella soon went back home to find the house empty as they expected.

"I'm hungry. Can you cook something?" Troy whined while Gabriella just rolled her eyes.

"You're always hungry!" She exclaimed as they went in the kitchen.

"What did you say about me?" Troy said, pretending to be angry.

"I said that I have such a hot boyfriend." Gabriella giggled making Troy smile.

"That's more like it." Troy suddenly grabbed her by the waist and spun her around.

"What do I do without you?" He mumbled.

"You'll be fine." She smiled and kissed him on the lips. They got a little carried away and they didn't hear the door open.

-----------------------------

Carla finally arrived home. Jack already went to his office to take care of some stuff.

"I wonder where Troy and Gabriella are." Carla asked herself worriedly. She continued walking and finally reached the kitchen. She stopped dead on her tracks, dropping her purse unconsciously. She couldn't believe what she was seeing. Her own truthfully daughter, kissing the guy she least expected.

"Gabi?!!" Carla exclaimed, completely shocked, disappointed and hurt.

Gabriella quickly pushed Troy away from her as soon as she heard her mother's voice. The voice that she didn't want to hear that exact moment.

"This is completely stuffed up!" Troy thought as he stared at Carla, his heart racing like hell. Gabriella on the other hand was so pale that it looked like she was gonna faint right on the spot.

"Mom???" Gabriella said, nervous, scared and most of all, guilty!
