Gabriella and her mom and dad walk into the Bolton's House. Rae, Troy and Josh are all standing there. "Maria! George! how are you two? it's been so long." they all hugged each other. Maria smiled, "Were lovely, and thanks for inviting us all over for dinner." Rae nodded, "No problem." she turned to Gabriella, "Oh my gosh, Gabi, you look beautiful.. I haven't seen you around much, you don't ever come over anymore." Gabriella smiled sadly, "I just been busy I guess." she looked at Troy, and then back down at the floor. Troy noticed she was becoming super skinny, and losing to much weight. she was too skinny. you could almost see her rib-cage, and she had bags under her eyes.
'You ok?' he mouthed, stupid question; of course she wasn't okay. Gabriella bit her lip, nodding slowly. A Lie. "Well," Rae said, "Josh, why don't you go check on dinner." Josh nodded, "yeah mom..." Rae smiled at the Montez' "Let's all sit in the family room and talk."
Gabriella bit her lip, "uh..I need to go to the bathroom so I'll just...go." Rae nodded, "of course dear...just go, we'll see you in there." Gabriella nodded, walking to the bathroom as the adults walked to the family room. Troy followed Gabriella, grabbing her bony elbow gently, "Brie..we need to talk-" she looked at the ground, "Th-there's nothing to talk about..."
Troy sighed, "just look at me please Brie...we need to talk, it's important-" she yanked her arm away, trying not to yell or draw attention to her from their parents and Josh. "No Troy, I'm sorry...but-but...there's nothing to talk about." Troy bit his lip, it was silent for a few seconds, then he smiled sadly, "remember when we were younger and...you'd bury me in the mud because you saw that on the Nanny when Fran went to the spa?" Gabriella bit her lip, smiling the tiniest of smiles. "what about the Gabi who doesn't care what people say or think about her? I miss that Gabi, I'd like to see her again." she looked at him, "people change Troy...we're not kids anymore. I have to start caring-Austin says so."
Troy sighed, "Come here, I need to show you something." he grabbed her hand leading her upstairs and into his bedroom. he shut the door, and looked at her leaning her against the wall, "Brie.. Austin, he stopped by here today-" her eyes went wide, "what?" he sighed, "We.. We got into a fight.. and.. and he said things that made me so mad brie...you deserve much better then him." she began breaking down sobbing into his arms. he held her close to him as they slid down to the floor. she began sniffling. "I don't understand...what went...wrong.." she covered her mouth crying a little bit more, "I..hate him troy...I..I don't wanna be with him-" "You don't have to be-" she shook her head, "No...you don't understand, I have too..or..he'll kill me.. he told me that himself." she cried into his chest, and he pulled her close to him, "Brie.." he felt her back with his hand, he could feel her spine completely almost out of her skin if that was possible.
He pulled away from her for a second, "what are you doing to yourself?" She sniffled, "I-I...I'm making myself look like Vanessa Hudgens...Austin likes her-how she looks-" he cupped her round face, "Brie, if you were with me you wouldn't have to do this!" his voice was a tad bit louder than intended. She jumped back a little bit, but her gaze on him didn't waver. "Austin loves me though Troy-" "that's crap Brie, you know it is...he doesn't love you-" "he does..." Troy sighed, tilting her chin up so his lips were almost align with hers. "He doesn't-but I do." she looked at him strangly, "wh-" he touched his lips to hers before she could get a word out.
Gabriella wrapped her arms around his neck. he put more force into the kiss so it would become more passionate. Gabriella loved his lips on hers. she loved the feeling, the spark, he gave her. Gabriella ran her fingers through his hair, he moaned into the kiss. Troy pulled away breathlessly, leaning his forhead against hers. Gabriella sighed, "I..I can't do this-" Troy shook his head, "You know in your heart this is so right Brie...I love you.." she bit her lip, "I love you too..but I can't..I..I..I'm going to get killed if I cheat on Austin.."
"Sh," Troy whispered, pecking her lips, and fluttering his eyelashes against her cheek. "Brie...let's pretend-like when we were little-just for tonight, Austin doesn't exist-" "but-" peck. "Brie, he's a forgotten imaginary friend." Gabriella bit her lip, staring into his eyes; she couldn't stop the smile that spread across her face; the same smile that matched Troy's when they kissed again in a passionte, heated kiss.
Gabriella pulled away, "But Troy.. Austin. He-" "Sh..what did I say?" she giggled, "Austin doesn't exist." he nodded, "Alright, he doesn't exist." he nodded, "good..now, let's get some food in you-" she shook her head, whimpering, "Troy No, I can't-" "why? Brie, your losing to much weight.. you need to gain a little bit." she bit her lip nervously, "Troy, If I eat anything, I..I..I'm going to get in trouble.."
He sighed, holding her hand gently; he wasn't supposed to feel the bones of her hands-any part of her. "Brie, no, please...just for me-Austin, he doesn't exist, in fact, he's nothing." Gabriella gulped, shaking her head, "he won't like it-" Troy groaned, he was tired of hearing 'Austin this, Austin that, Austin won't like it'. He crashed his lips on hers to make her stop talking about him.
He let go of her hand, grabbing her hips and pulling her toward him. She wrapped her arms around his neck, she just...Austin nver kissed her like this; never made her feel this way. Too short after, Troy pulled away, leaning his forehead on hers. "Brie...no talk about him all right? But please...eat something."
Gabriella cupped his cheeks with her hands, nodding, "Okay, I'll eat something-" "You promise?" he narrowed his eyes at her. she sighed, "Yes, I promise." he smiled, "Good." he took her hand leading her downstairs were dinner was already done. Troy and Gabriella took a seat. Rae smiled, "Gabi, I made your favorite, Lasagna." she smiled softly, "Thank you Rae, It's looks delicious." Troy looked at her under his eyelashes, making sure she ate real well. Rae looked at her, "Dig in Sweetie." Gabriella bit her lip, "Oh umm yeah..uhh.." she lifted up a fork, and began to eat it. Maria smiled, her daughter was finally eating again. after dinner was over, Gabriella sighed, "Umm may I be exscused to the restroom?" Rae nodded. Gabriella slipped out of her chair, rushed to the bathroom to throw up.
Troy sighed jumping out of his seat and going to the bathroom to turn the knob, but it was locked. he sighed began banging on the door. "Gabriella..open the door..please." he heard her throw up, and she sniffled, "No..." she cried. he sighed, "Please sweetheart..please." she began throwing up again. "N-No..leave me alone..go away.." she threw up again.
Troy knocked on the door again, "Brie, please...just open the door-" the sound of her retching had finished, then followed the sound of the water running; so she was trying to hide it? Well, she couldn't hide it from Troy...just as Troy was about to pound on the door again, he felt Josh put a hand on his shoulder, "Dude, leave alone all right and also..another letter came for you-it's from"-Josh looked both ways, Troy had seen because he had turned around-"dad." Troy narrowed his eyes, "I don't give a rip-" "Troy he just wants to reach out to you-" "I don't care! He can spend all his life away from me!" he pushed Josh away, grabbing the letter from his hand and tearing in fourths before marching upstairs. If..Gabriella wanted to make herself sick, then she could; but that doesn't mean that he won't try to get her away from Austin and make her better. Hell would have to freeze over to keep him away from her, and Hell would have to crumble to nothing to have him open, read, and reply to any of his dad's letters.
TGTGTGTG
The Next Day at School, Gabriella rushed inside the school. she was trying to avoid Austin. but luck wasen't on her side at the moment. Austin grabbed her arm, squeezing it tightly. "where were you yesterday? you didn't answer your cell phone? you weren't home? where the hell were you!" she gulped, "Austin, please let go of my arm.. y-your hurting me.." she whimpered. he didn't let go, he just squeezed harder. "Where were you-" "Austin please-" Troy was coming down the hallway, and saw the scene unfold, he went behind the corner, so he could hear them. "Where the hell were you Gabriella! Tell Me!" she began whimpering, "Austin please your hurting me-" he pushed her on the ground. "Fine! don't tell me! do you have my history paper done?" she nodded digging through her bag, and gave it to him.
He nodded with a smirk, "Nice penmentship." she gulped nodding, he saw everyone show up,watching, they weren't there for the full scene, so he just put on an glared at Gabriella, and then he smiled putting on an act, "Oh Sweetheart, let me help you up, are you okay pumpkin?" Gabriella sighed, 'Yeah I'm fine.." he glared at her, she kissed his cheek, "Thank you baby." everyone smiled, and went on. he smiled then glared at her, "lose some weight.. I don't need a fat girlfriend..got that." she nodded, "Yes sir." he smiled, he loved having the power over her. he kissed her cheek, and walked onto class. Gabriella ran up to the rooftop, and sat on the bench and sobbed.
Troy sighed, biting his inner cheek. He watched as Gabriella run up to the roof top; he wouldn't let her do this to herself, and he sure as hell wouldn't let Austin do it to her. Sighing, he pushed away from the corner he was hiding behind and went to his first class of the day.
Troy made his way into the classroom. he looked over to find Austin with the biggest whore of East High on his lap. his blood boiled. he couldn't believe Gabriella hasen't even left the bastard already. he took a seat up front, he would check on Gabriella after class. The Teacher walked in, and held her coffee cup in her hand, "Okay students, I need your essays now." Austin smirked walking up with his paper, more like Gabriella's paper. "Read it, I want you to tell me how great I did." he crossed his arms. The Teacher analyzed it, "Wow, this is great work, even the handwriting is amazing." Austin nodded, "Thank you, I worked all night on it."
The teacher smiled, "Good work Austin, your commended for your hardworkman's ship." The bastard smiled-SMILED! It made Troy want to bash his face in, but he couldn't do it now; getting expelled from school was not on his todo list any time soon. Instead, he bit his inner cheek, grabbed his essay and walked up to the front of the class, he smirked when an idea hit him in midstep to the front; that's when he walked back to his desk, picked up a pencil and slightly shoved the tip so far into his palm that he saw a light trickle of blood. His teacher went all wideeyed, "Troy! What happened to your hand?" Troy shrugged, making sure to speak loud enough so the bastard could hear him. "Oh..just Austin stabbing me with a pencil cause he wouldn't let me hang out with my best friend, no big deal."
Austin's eyes widened, "What?" the whole class jumped at the outburst, others gasped in shock when they heard Troy say this. Troy inwardly smirked, if Austin liked picking on people, and hitting them where it hurts, Troy was going to have Austin see how it feels. However, it might piss him off. "Austin..." the teacher said, his mousy eyes still bulging, "is this true?" "Wh-wh...ah! NO!"
Troy smirked, then hissed, "My hand is really hurting, can I go wash my hands?" The Teacher nodded, "Of Course Troy, and Austin, I want you up here.. now!" Austin glared at Troy, Who Troy was the one smirking as he left out the door. truth was, he was perfectly fine, he just needed to get to Gabriella. he came up to the rooftop to find Gabriella sitting on the bench. she looked awful, she had bags under her eyes, she was really pale and really skinny and weak. "Brie..." she closed her eyes, then opened them to look at him, "T-Troy.?..what are you doing up here?" he sighed taking a seat by her, "Brie, you look sick.. are you okay?" she nodded, "I'm super..I..I need to get to class." She tried to get up but when she did, she felt lightheaded, she grabbed her forhead, "ow.." and then she started to fall backwards, and was going to land on the ground.
Troy caught her, "Brie.." she snapped her eyes to him, "I..I'm fine Troy..really..I.." Troy bit his lip, "listen, I'm gonna ditch school, take you back to my house, get some food in you, and you rest okay? I'm gonna take good care of you." her eyes went wide, she began panicing. she shook her head, "N-No..you-you can't...I'll I'll get in trouble.. please..please Troy.. I'm okay..please..I'm fine..don't worry about me."
"Well, that's a problem Brie." her eyes slighlty narrowed, but still had that 'dear caught in headlights' look. "Why is it a problem? Just- just don't worry about me I'm-" he wrapped his arms around her, picking her up bridal style. "I'm always gonna worry about you..." Gabriella bit her lip, balling her hands into fists, "Troy...p-please...I just want to go to class, I don't want to get into trouble-" he kissed her forehead, "No, you won't...you won't get into trouble at all because I'll always be here to protect you." she sniffled, biting her lip, "Okay..b-but-" "Brie..." he said, holding her gently to his chest as he took her home.
When they got there, Troy kicked the door opened gently with his foot; half shocked when he found the door unlocked. But not fully, considering his little brother Josh was homeschooled. "Josh!" he called, but what he saw-more of a who-when he came to the entrance of the living room was, "Troy..." his father. Troy's stomach curled, his eyes narrowed at him as he turned swiftly and walked up the stairs. He didn't want this man back in his life, nor did he want anything to do with him. Gabriella had fallen asleep, but when he sat her on his bed, she stirred awake. "Troy...?" "Shh, I'm going to get you some food." and try to ignore the image that was his 'father'.
Troy walked downstairs going through the cabniet. Drake Bolton walked into the kitchen. "Son.. please, talk to me.. I know you hate me, but I love you son, always have, came back for your forgiveness." Troy just ignored him. he didn't care for this man anymore, this man wasen't even his 'father' to Troy, he had no 'father' the main important thing on his mind was Gabriella. the love of his life, his best friend, he needed her to get better. he finished up ramon noodles, and stir it up a little bit, with some milk on the side. he walked passed his 'father' going up the stairs. Drake just sighed. Troy walked into the room and sat the tray on the counter next to the bed, "Hey Brie, you hungry?" she bit her lip, whimpering, "I..I'm not aloud Troy..please.. please I'm going to get in trouble."
Troy sighed, "Brie, your not going to get in trouble for eating, I promise you that, I'm here to protect you." she had tears in her eyes, he bit his lip getting into bed with her and she cuddled up against him. "I..I want a guy like you Troy.. someone who loves me, and don't treat me like..like I'm worthless..d-do you know what austin said to me? why he ever dated me?" Troy just looked at her, she began crying, but sniffled up her tears, "Cause he wanted power over a girl..." she looked up at him, "I love you Troy...I don't wanna be with Austin. but I am so scared of breaking up with him, I am terrified."
Troy rubbed her back, "It'll be fine...you don't have to scared...I'm here." Gabriella sniffled, involuntarily letting a yawn escape her mouth. Troy chuckled, "I think you should rest-I'll be here when you wake up...I promise." She smiled softly, her eyes fluttering closed slowly. He kissed her forehead as he stood up slowly, and tugged the blanket over her shoulders. There was still ramen noodles in the bowl, but the glass of milk was empty, so he took that down. Drake was waiting in the kitchen again, his hands holding up his head; that is until he heard Troy come in.
"Troy please-" Troy groaned, rolling his eyes as he went to the sink and started to rinse the glass slowly-a distraction. "Okay," Drake said, "maybe I deserve this but I'm trying to-" Troy bit his inner cheek, turning around slowly, crossing his arms over his chest, "And what is it your trying to do? Make sure my guard is down? Why? So you can ..hmm. ..oh yeah hit me again?" Drake sighed, "Troy, look, I've done a lot of thinking in-" Troy rolled his eyes, "Oh yeah, full story tonight on Buzzline! Drake Bolton finally uses the head that's he's been neglecting..uh huh..." Drake pinched the bridge of his nose-something that Troy inherited from him. "Troy please I know that-" "Just leave me out of it all right, you're out...fine, but don't even think that I'll be calling you 'dad' or 'pops' anytime soon."
he pushed passed him and thundered up the stairs, going to Josh's room, where his brother was blowing out his ears with Three Days Grace from his ipod. Troy yanked his earphones out, "Hey!" Josh griped, Troy lifted him up by the shirt and set him on the ground, "you couldn't tell me he's back?"
Josh sighed, "Troy, come on.. it's been a long time.. don't you think we should move on-" Troy became furious. "MOVE ON! I CAN'T FUCKING FORGET WHAT HE DID TO ME, AND MOVE ON!" Josh gulped, "Look Troy, Listen-" Troy sighed, "No.. The only person who can understand me right now is Gabriella, that's where I need to be, don't even come and bother us!" he slammed the door heading back to his room. he walked into the room and saw Gabriella awake. "Brie, why are you awake?" she bit her lip, "I heard yelling, I couldn't sleep." he sighed getting into the bed with her, "I'm sorry about that, but some things are gong on.." she bit her lip, "I saw your dad was back." she threw the blanket off going over to his counter and playing with his stuff, "You never told me the real reason, why he...left."
Troy gulped, scratching the back of his neck in a nervous tick. "uh...family stuff." Gabriella looked at him, "Troy...your family-it's like the happiest family I know...and then your dad left-something had to have happened.." he looked away, scratching at his neck again and pulling on his ear. "Brie...look let's not talk about me..it's you I'm worried about-" she rolled her eyes, "you said"-she bit her lip, stuffing her hands in her pockets-"that you'll always worry about me...can-can you give me that same courtesey? and let me worry about you?" Troy smirked, standing up from the bed, taking her hands in his. "Of course-" "then answer me-" "Brie.." "please?" he sighed, "maybe...but not right now okay?" Gabriella bit her lip, but nodding slowly, "Yeah...okay, but I'll hold you to that Bolton." he chuckled, "fair enough." he wrapped his arms in a hug, her eyes closed for a brief second, then opened again-widening when she saw something on the floor next to his dresser. "What's that?" she asked, pulling away, and walking over to the box.
Troy looked to where she was headed and his eyes went wide, "Those are nothing." he went behind her as she picked up the box and he took it from her. her eyes snapped up to him, "Troy-" he crashed his lips onto hers. she moaned wrapping her arms around his neck. he set the box of letters ontop of the dresser. Gabriella moaned as Troy picked her up. he began kissing her rapidly and passionately, and hungerly, and he growled and he layed her on the bed and slipped off her pants, and now she was only in panties in bra, but him he was completey in his birthday suit.
Clothes were gone onto the floor. they were both panting heavily, and sweating. Gabriella held onto him. "mmm Troy.." she moaned as his lips traveled up her stomach, and her hands roamed his hair, pulling tuffs of his hair. Gabriella loved this. Troy making love to her, was so much more gentle, and she felt loved. she felt love from him, and she knew this wasen't a mistake. "mmm Troy...Troy?" he was panting, he looked into her eyes, kissing her forhead, then pecking her lips, "yeah brie?" she breathed, "Condom..do you have a condom?"
He smirked, "Yeah..." he brought his lips up to hers again and kissed her raw and passionate, as his hand went to a drawer in his bedside table; pulling out a large package condom and slipping it on his 'little friend'. Gabriella smiled, "Troy..." she whispered, running her fingers through his hair, he was kissing her neck when her cellphone rang. Immediately she tensed and a cold sweat broke over her skin. "T-Troy...my-my phone...please don't let it be Austin..."
Troy stopped the kisses on her neck, looking at her pants that were in a pile on the floor by his bed. He looked at her again, "Brie...forget about him, this is not about anyone but us..only us. Like kindergarten." Gabriella bit her lip, but Troy kissed her lips passionately...sweetly...heatedly. Her blasted phone kept ringing.
"Troy..." she whispered into the kiss, Troy moaned, leading his hands down her sides and resting them on her hips and pulled himself inside her gently, she jumped but relaxed immediately. "Troy..mm.." she moaned lightly, he chuckled, leaning his forehead against hers and kissing her lips gently, "enough of talking about things that don't matter-Brie, when it's us alone, it's only us. The rest of the world doesn't exist."
Gabriella smiled, and moaned, "Oh..Troy just kiss me, and go faster!" Troy smirked and kissed her lips fully but passionately. His member pulsing inside of her, her walls crashing down on him. "Oh..Troy!" she scratched his back with her nails. "Mmmm feels so good." Troy smirked and moaned when she began sucking on his neck. "Oh Brie...Oh" then the door flew open, "Troy, Mom says-" Josh stopped when he saw his older brother ontop of Gabriella doing...just.. he couldn't even think about it. Drake was beside him, walking in, "what the hell is going on here!" Gabriella gasped pushing Troy off of her and covering herself up, "I am so so sorry.." she bit her lip, looking at Troy, "I am so so sorry.."
Troy looked at her shaking his head, "You have absolutely nothing to be sorry for. this was something between me and you." his head snapped to his brother and that man. "It's them who need to apologize who barge into my room without knocking! will you leave and give me and her some privacy!" Josh nodded, "Sorry." he closed the door, and Gabriella bit her lip, "I..umm.." then her phone began ringing. she sighed digging through her jeans, and answering it, "Hello?" Austin began yelling, "WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU! I NEED YOU HERE AT MY HOUSE NOW! YOU HAVE ALOT OF EXPLAINING TO DO!" he hung up. Gabriella shut her eyes tightly, to stop from tears flowing. she sniffled looking at Troy, "I have to go..It's Austin.. I'm in trouble.." she got up quickly gathering up her clothes.
Troysighed, grabbing his boxer's off the floor and standing up as he pulledthem up to his hips; letting them settle and then his jeans. He was shirtless, Gabriella was struggling with her red lacy bra-which he remember was too ...risque for her taste. She never wore one before. Troy went behind her, "Here let me help you with that.." she sighed, biting her lip. "Thanks." she mumbled, hugging her arms around herself. Troy bit his inner cheek, "new bra?" she turned her head to look at him,"what?" he held her gaze, "your mom always said that...you wouldn't wear a bra like this. A push up." Gabriella bit her lip, "Austin likes it...he gets mad when I don't wear what he likes-" "it shouldn't matter what he thinks or not Brie."
She shook her head, backing away from him, "it does...I'm sorry but it does." he cupped her face, bringing her lips to his as he placed a gentle peck on her lips, "you wouldn't have to change for me Brie. Not ever." Gabriella sniffled, smiling sadly, "that's what I l...what I love about you, Troy...why your my best friend." Troy smiled, but it didn't reach his eyes, "there's always hope for more, but I'm patient...and willing to help you with anything." Gabriella smiled again, standing up on her tiptoes to give him a hug and a kiss on the cheek. Before she could pull away, the most shocking words left her mouth, "maybe we could do this again..."
Troy smiled, wrapping his arms around her waist. "Maybe.." he whispered in her ear, pulling away, "want me to go with you-" "No.." she looked down, "I'm..I'm fine to handle this on my own." Troy knew better but he didn't want to fight with her, he lifted her chin so he could stare into those eyes he loved so much. "Your always welcome here...always. Just come here right after." Gabriella bit her lip, nodding slowly, "I..I..I love you Troy." he smiled, kissing her lips slowly, gently. "Always." When she walked downstairs, Drake was waiting in the living room, with a scowl on his face, Troy ignored him as he walked Gabriella out on to the steps. "I know you're strong Brie...and you're strong enough to leave Austin-you just have to find it in yourself." Gabriella giggled, then she ruffled a hand through his hair, "you sound like a fortune cookie." Troy chuckled, "yeah well...it's true. Your the strongest person I know." Gabriella smiled, when she said those three little words, she didn't hesitate-cause they were true. "I love you."
Troy held her close in a embrace, kissing the top of her head, "I love you too.. be careful and be safe..alright? call me when your done." she nodded pecking his lips, "I'll leave him Troy, just.. just give me time." he nodded, "Yeah, I love you." she pecked his lips going out the door. Troy sighed rubbing his forhead, and Drake's voice came in, "what was that up in the bedroom?" Troy looked at him, and glared, "why do you care? it's none of your buisness." he walked passed him but Drake grabbed his arm, "It is my buisness, your my son." Troy scoffed pulling his arm away, "No, you have no son, and I have no 'father' " Drake sighed, "Troy I'm trying to reach out to you-" "Well your wasting your time!" he crossed his arms, Drake glared at him, "why can't you be like Josh, Troy! he doesn't go around sleeping around with girls!" he yelled, "what if that girl ends up pregnant? did you even use protection!"
Troy glared at him, "Of course...you think I wouldn't-You think I'm stupid don't you!" "I didn't say that.." Troy rolled his eyes, "yeah right...why don't you just jump off a balcony." "Hey!" Drake yelled, grabbing Troy by the wrist, "I'm you father, you don't-oof!" Troy had interrupted him, stopping in him in midsentence when his fist collide with his nose. Troy was seething, "Don't you dare touch me..." Troy Bolton doesn't yell, he does the one thing that always frightens his enemies, and that is his voice goes into a deadly whisper that makes people think 'if looks could kill' because of the feral look on his face. Troy went to pounce on Drake, Josh grabbed him, "Dude..come on! Stop it!" "Drake stood up from having fallen on his rear, "Troy I'm just concerned-" "That's crap!" He yelled, "you've never been concerned, you never will be!" "Troy!" Josh yelled, "knock it off! Cool it..." the three men didn't realize that the front door had opened, that is until Rae Bolton gasped for two reasons, shocked that her...ex? Husband was standing in her house right now or the fact that her normally peaceful house was being shouted in and there was so much negative energy in it.
Rae pulled her son away, "Drake, what are you doing here?" Drake sighed, "Rae, I just came back to see two boys, and.. and try to make things right, between all of us." Rae sighed, "Listen, Drake, It's sweet that you want to try to be in both your son's life." Troy couldn't believe this, his own mother. "But, If Troy doesn't want anything to do with you, don't push him, If Josh wants you in his life, I have no problem with it, their both old enough to make their own decisions." Troy smiled hugging his mom, "Thanks for taking my side mom." she smiled, "I didn't take your side, I'm just doing what is right."
