'GO TROY!' yelled Gabriella.
She was at Troy and Chad's debut game with Taylor who had little Mattie on her lap, he had earplugs in to protect his ears from all the noise. Gabriella was 6 and half months pregnant but was surprisingly active.
'He's such a cutie!' Gabriella cooed.
'Thanks,' Taylor said, 'so is your boyfriend'
They giggled and Gabriella said,
'You know I met this gorgeous thing'.
'GO CHAD! GO TROY!' screamed Taylor.
She sat back down and turned to Gabriella who had a strange look on her face.
'What's up?' Taylor asked.
'Tay, my waters just broke' Gabriella replied.
'What! But you're only 6 and a half months!'
'I know Tay! What should I do? I need Troy!'
'Wait here, sit down and breathe'
Taylor ran over to the tannoy and whispered to the man, he nodded and handed her the mike, signalling for time out.
The game stopped and Taylor said over the loudspeaker,
'Troy Bolton you better get your sweaty ass off that court and into the stands 'cause your girlfriends gone into labour! NOW!'
It took a moment to sink in before Troy realised and ran off, he leapt up the stairs three at a time and reached Gabriella.
'Ella, this can't be happening, you're barely 7 months!'
'Troy, all I need is an ambulance, get me an ambulance' she said through gritted teeth.
It took ten minutes for the ambulance to arrive and they carried Gabriella out. The people in the stands were cheering but Gabriella wasn't so grateful.
'They wouldn't be doing that if they were about to go through what I am' she said under her breath.
They got her to the hospital with Chad and Taylor following, Troy was in the ambulance with her. They'd postponed the match until further notice.
Gabriella was wheeled through to a room; the doctor was there within seconds.
'She's only 6 and a half months, how can this be happening?' Troy said worriedly.
'I can't tell you Mr Bolton, all I can tell you is that this baby wants to come out'
'What, now?' Troy said.
'No, Miss Montez isn't fully dilated yet, it could be a few more hours, we'll just have to wait'
'But what about the baby, surely it's not fully formed yet?'
'That is what I must talk to you about, I should warn you that baby's born this early have a higher chance of having defects'
When they said the word 'defect', both Gabriella and Troy went pale, Gabriella gripped Troy's hand.
'These defects can be among, non-fully formed limbs, or brain damage or heart problems'
'What?' Troy said in a strangled whisper.
'What I must also tell you is that it is quite possible that the baby will be completely healthy'
'So there could be nothing wrong?'
'Yes, but I'm afraid to say the odds are against us, I'll leave you in peace'
Gabriella stared silently at the wall in front of her, tears rolling down her face. Troy was dumbfounded; their parents walked in and the doctor explained. Gabriella's Mum rushed to her side. Troy's mum hugged him, crying silently, as was Gabriella's mum. Jack shook his head and looked at Troy. He watched a tear roll down his cheek. He caught his eye and motioned his head towards Gabriella. Troy nodded and he turned to face Gabriella and said,
'Ella, no matter what our baby turns out to be, whether it has a defect or not, I want you to know that I'll love it all the same. I'll take care of it, I understand if you don't want to but whether this baby is different it's still ours. No matter what it looks like, whether it has only one arm, whatever, it's still our little child and I'll love it and you for the rest of my life.'
The parents looked on as he said this. Jack had a proud look in his eye.
Gabriella faced Troy and said,
'I'll be there to raise it with you, like you said; it's our baby and nothings going to change that'
They smiled at each other and the parents went out to tell the rest of the gang who had arrived, what might happen.
'I love you Troy'
'I love you too Ella, and this little one'
'Forever?'
'Forever and ever'
