Troy and Gabriella layed on the kitchen floor, wrapped in the articles of clothing since neither one of them wanted to move to get a blanket. Troy stroked the top of her hair with his fingers gently, and kissed her forhead as she layed her head against his chest, using his arm as a pillow. Gabriella took his fingers, bringing them to her lips and she kissed them, and wrapped her mouth around them sucking on them. Troy smiled down at her, and kissed her lips, "You ok?" she looked at him, "never better." Troy smiled back, Gabriella looked around the kitchen, "This is..kind of getting uncomofortable."

Troy chuckled, "Well my princess," he crooned, moving hair out of her eyes, "would you like the couch or the bedr-" she interrupted him, "bathroom...a hot shower sounds lovely." she looked at him suggestively, "unless your too scared to shower with a girl." Troy smirked, "you're gonna eat those words." Gabriella giggled, wrapping Troy's shirt around her chest as she stood up and ran up the stairs to her bathroom, Troy following her in all his naked glory. And glorious it was.

After a long shower together, and getting dressed. Troy and Gabriella layed in the bedroom, Gabriella layed in Troy's arms as they watched A Movie together. After a little while, Gabriella had fallen asleep, and Troy smiled kissing her forhead, "Sweet Dreams Brie.." he wrapped the blanket around her and they both let darkness overcome them.

The Next Morning, Gabriella was in the kitchen with a big smile on her face making some breakfeast. She was so happy. she was inlove, and she loved him so much. she didn't wanna lose him. even though he was a complete stranger, who came and well, was planning on killing her, she fell inlove with him. even though he said he was going to and wasen't anymore, she was still suspicious and will have to learn to trust him again. Troy came downstairs and smiled wrapping his arms around her waist, "Hey Beautiful..I woke up, and you were gone." Gabriella giggled, "Sorry, I wanted to make breakfeast, you hungry any?" she looked at him.

Troy kissed her cheek, slowly moving his lips to her neck-where her shoulder met up with it-and started nibbling on the skin there. Troy chuckled, "I have my breakfast right here...but whatever your making smells great." Gabriella giggled, turning around in his arms, "bacon and eggs." Troy smirked, "how do you know that I'm a carnivore?" she giggled, her hands resting on his shoulders, "I'm one...a good little carnivore." Troy smirked at the innuendo she was implying, "well I am hungry."

Gabriella giggled turning around, letting her hand turn off the stove, and wrapping her arms around his neck and letting him pick her up and lift her on the counter. "mmmm your so beautiful." he murmured, as he stripped off her sleeve off her shoulder, landing his lips on her sweet spot. "Mmm Troy...you know all the right spots." she moaned. Troy chuckled, laying her across the counter, even though it was uncomfortable, Gabriella didn't care, she wanted him. Gabriella put her hand to his face, "Troy..I love you."

He kissed her deeply, his fingers splaying at her sides and his thumbs tracing circles under her shirt-well, his shirt, she had picked up the first shirt she founds; which explained why Troy was shirtless. "Troy..." she ran her fingers through his hair, and just when Troy was lifting her shirt (his shirt) there was a steady knock on the door. Gabriella sighed, "I have to get the door...Troy," she giggled, "the door." he moaned, but otherwise did not move, "hey...you're mine...I want you my Brie."

There was another knock on the door, and Gabriella giggled, "Troy, there is someone at the door." Troy chuckled nodding pecking her lips, "Ok, Fine...but you owe me." she smiled, "I promise." she quickly slipped on Troy's T-Shirt, "You Know I feel so comfortable in your clothes." Troy smiled wrapping an arm around her waist. "You can have them." he smiled kissing her cheek. she went over to the door and there was no one there, but something at the bottom of her feet caught her eyes. her eyes widened, "T-Troy.." Troy heard her cry, he ran towards her, "what's wrong baby?" she pointed at the object on the ground that was ticking, "someone left a bomb!"

Troy pulled Gabriella behind him, "Stand back Brie.." she looked at him, "what are you going to do?" she asked he looked at her, "Just stand back." she nodded standing back. Troy took a deep breath, and back towards the stairs, "1...2...3" and at the count of three, he dashed off sending his foot with the bomb, sending it out far away towards the river. Gabriella wrapped her arms around him, "Troy...who..who would send a bomb?"

He wrapped his arms around her shoulders; rubbing her back in soothing circles. He had a good idea of who would send it, thing is what did Pete want to kill Gabriella for? Troy whispered reassurances in her ear, "Hey..it's fine, your safe with me." Gabriella huddled herself against Troy's chest, "I...what did I do?" her eyes were moist and wet with tears. Troy kissed the top of her head, "Nothing. Absolutely nothing, I'll protect you...I'd die for you."

Gabriella looked up at him, "Troy..don't talk like that-" "I mean it Gabriella...I love you..I won't let anything happen to you..nothing..do you understand me?" she nodded and he crashed his lips onto hers, in a passionate fiery. Gabriella wrapped her arms around his neck as he kissed her. she pulled away looking into his eys, "I love you Troy." he smiled, "I Love you too." she smiled softly and she kissed him again.

Pete was sitting in the car across the street slamming his fist against the steering wheel. his plan didn't work. Bolton ruined it. he was gonna have to do it the hard way.. he was gonna have to murder her when Bolton was around. It was getting dark and he slammed his car door shut. he walked onto the porch quietly looking inside. Gabriella was sitting on the couch, and Troy walked in, he could hear their conversation. "Hey, I'm gonna take a shower.. if you need me, walk inside." she nodded, "I'll be fine." he smiled kissing her forhead. this made Pete's stomach twist in knots. As Troy walked into the shower, Pete opened the front door.

Gabriella heard the door close, and she looked towards the Kitchen. "Troy..is that you?" Silence filled the house. Gabriella gulped, and stood up from the couch walking towards the kitchen slowly. "Troy..is that you?" still silence. She sighed and spoke again, "Troy, this isn't funny-" she was pulled into the corner, she began screaming but Pete covered her mouth. her eyes went wide, she tried to escape him. she fell onto the floor, trying to get up and run but he grabbed her by the ankle. "Your coming with me princess." her eyes went wide, "Troy!" she screamed.

The screams echoed, mangling with the relaxing feel of the hot shower. Troy felt his insides clench into a tight knot, he opened the shower curtain, "Brie!" He called, no response. He went back to the shower only to turn off the water and step out to slip on boxers and a white tank top; he called again, "BRIE!" nothing. He walked down stairs, "Gab-" "Troy! Please...stay back." he turned to see Gabriella, with a gun pointed under her chin, and behind her (holding the gun) was Pete. Troy felt fire run through his veins, "You wouldn't do the job Bolton...I have to. And it'll be a big mess when I'm done." Troy took a step forward, Pete snarled, "another step Bolton and this pretty face won't be so pretty anymore."

Gabriella whimpered, "Troy...please do as he says-" "I'm going to protect you Brie." Pete feigned an awed expression, "how sweet, nicknames..." he looked at Gabriella, "what's your nickname for him? Pookie?" Gabriella's face was so twisted by tears that Troy wanted to see her smile again. Troy looked at the barrel of the gun aimed at Gabriella's chin, "I have a better offer for you Pete." He held his hands up in surrender, Pete glared at him, "better than killing this brat...?" the blue-eyed sex fiend wanted to punch Pete's face in at that moment, but he swallowed it. "Me."

Gabriella's eyes widened, "Troy no-" Pete pulled her hair, "what're you saying?" Troy swallowed, "Me...for her, you're not allowing Gabriella to defend herself...I can. At least make it a fair fight." Pete thought for a minute, then his dark eyes grew darker, "I like it...but I'mma fix something with that plan"-he aimed the gun at Troy's stomach and pulled the trigger. Troy went down to the floor with a bloody stomach, his eyes were watering. Gabriella squealed, "TROY!"

Troy layed there, his eyes winching in pain, and the pain shooting up through his stomach. Gabriella cried, "Troy!" she screamed trying to get over to him but Pete pulled her back, "Not so fast princess..its your turn." her eyes went wide, Troy looked up painfully. "you said you wouldn't-" Pete chuckled, "I didn't say nothing.. I'm gonna take this beautiful princess upstairs and bang her up, she looks so good in bed.." then he leaned in and whisper in her ear, "Maybe as good as her mother." Gabriella's eyes widened, "My-My Mother?" Pete chuckled, "Oh Darling, didn't you know? Your beautiful mother was a beautiful slut.. you look just like her." Gabriella gulped, "why are you doing this.." Pete chuckled, "Cause Sluts like your mother deserve to die.." Gabriella shook her head, "But I'm not my mother." Pete smirked, "I know..but your related to her...and could end up like her." Gabriella shook her head, "No..please." he grabbed her wrist dragging her upstairs, "No! Troy!" she screamed, Pete looked at Troy on the ground, "Hey, tell me, is she any good at sex..if she's like her mother, she's amazing... or better yet, how about we do it near your beloved Troy... so he can hear you scream."

Troy glared at him, a knot forming in his stomach, "I swear to god, you touch her, I'll fucking kill you." Gabriella had tears streaming down her cheeks, "Troy.." she whimpered, he looked at her, "Brie, everything is gonna be alright...do you trust me?" she nodded, "I trust you." Pete rolled his eyes, "I'm sick of these lovey dovey crap, I'm gonna take you into the living room and show you what a man feels like..your so small, so It can cause some damage.."

Gabriella shook her head, "Not..this time." she kicked him in the stomach, and he rolled over on the ground dropping the gun, Gabriella grabbed the gun and pointed it at him. he looked at her, "Gabriella, watch were your pointing that thing at, it's loaded." Gabriella smirked, "Shut the hell up, I'm a big girl now, no one tells me what the fuck to do!" she pulled the trigger, sending 15 shot towards his chest sending Pete to the ground. Gabriella bent over on Troy, "Troy.. are you ok?" she ripped her sleeve off and pressing it down on the wound in his stomach, "Baby, I'm fine, are you ok.." Gabriella had tears rolling down her cheeks, "we need to get you to the hospital.."

Troy grabbed her wrist gently, "no I'm fine-ow...okay I'm not.." Gabriella held on to him, but he slipped out of her fingers, "okay...I'm gonna call my friend Ryan.." Troy grabbed her wrist, "I meant it before-that I'd die for you." Gabriella felt tears well up in her eyes, she shook her head, planting the mother of all kisses on his lips, she pulled away after 3 seconds, "No goodbyes...Troy, no goodbye's yet. It's not time for goodbye." Troy smiled, "Brie, I'm bleeding with a bullet in my stomach-" she kissed him again, "Don't..." she mumbled against his lips, "I'm gonna call Ryan...he's gonna help me get you to the hospital." Troy nodded, running his hands through her hair, "it's not hurting so much anymore.."

Gabriella looked at him biting her lip, while she was still on the phone with Ryan. "Hello...it's Ryan Evans speaking." Gabriella sighed, "Ryan, I need your help.." Rylan giggled, "help with what?" Gabriella groaned, "I need your help getting a friend to the hospital.." Ryan nodded, "Ok" and he hung up. Gabriella sighed applying more pressure. "does that feel ok?" she asked him biting her lip.

Troy bit his lip, "Brie...it's not-it's not hurting so much." his vision blurred a bit, his shirt was soaked with blood. Gabriella grabbed his wrist, "Stay with me Troy...stay with me." she added more pressure, her hands getting more drenched with his blood. Ryan came in an hour and 30 minutes later; Troy was slipping in and out of conciousness. "Ryan, thank God! Help me get him to the car!" Ryan helped her carry Troy to the car, Ryan was driving, Gabriella was in the back with Troy's head in her lap. When they got to the hospital, it was chaos.

"Why are these people moving so snail slow?" Gabriella yelled, watching people walk to their cars in what seemed like super slow motion, Ryan rolled his eyes, "Gabs, you're in a hurry." a light groan, then Troy's half groggy half concsious voice, "you're in the parking lot..." Gabriella looked at her man, "Troy...please tell me your not going anywhere near the bright light?"

Troy chuckled, but it turned to a slight pained groan, "Brie...I'm fine-" "AH!" Ryan screamed, "no kissy goo-goo in this car...only for me and my boyfriend..." Troy slipped back into unconcsiousness, but Gabriella spoke to him anyway, "Ryan's openly gay..." Ryan giggled, "PROUD OF IT BABE!" when they finally parked near the entrance, Gabriella and Ryan carried Troy to the front desk. "Nurse! Anybody!"

The nurse looked at her, "I'm sorry miss, but the doctor is really busy." Gabriella looked at Troy who was losing blood, "I don't fucking care! my boyfriend needs help! now give me a damn doctor!" Gabriella screamed. Ryan was kind of scared from her screaming. The nurse sighed, "we'll be back soon." Gabriella sighed helping Troy over to the seat, "you'll be ok Troy..I promise." she kissed his lips gently, and sighed laying her head on his chest.

The Doctor came out, and looked over at the young couple, "Miss?" Gabriella looked at him, "Doctor, you have to help my boyfriend...his been shot, and his losing alot of blood..please..please help him." Gabriella begged, tears rolling down her cheeks, "I can do what I can Gabriella.." The doctor Took Troy back and Gabriella had to wait back in the waiting room, praying, hoping that he was ok.
