"You fucking took my stuff!? YOU FUCKING BITCH!!" Sarah screamed loudly. Sarah's hand was 3 inches away from hitting Gabriella's cheek when Troy caught her wrist.

"Don't you dare hit the girl I love" Troy hissed in a dangerously low voice

"WHAT!"

"What?" Sarah yelled and Gabriella said at the same time.

"Oh shit" Troy muttered.

"YOU LOVE HER?!" Sarah screeched.

Troy nodded meekly. "Yeah" he said faintly. "Yeah I do" he said with more confidence.

"Oh my god.." Gabriella said looking at Troy.

Troy rubbed the back of his neck. "Yeah…"

"That's what I fucking call a MAN-STEALER, bitch!"Sarah shouted referring to Gabriella.

"She is not a man-stealer or a bitch!" Troy defended.

"Yeah she is! You know it too!" Sarah retorted. While Troy kept defending Gabriella and Sarah insulting her, Gabriella ran out of their sight.

"Oh my god. Oh my god" Gabriella repeated running to her cabin.

"Hey Gabi!" Taylor greeted cheerfully, sitting next to Chad.

"Gabs, whatsup?" Jason asked seeing the stressed look on her face.

"Troy loves me." She spit out. Everyone's eyes went big.

"He told you?" Chad asked still shocked.

"Ye-yeah.. well didn't exactly say it didn't come out like it was really suppose to…I think?" she explained.

"How did he say it?" Chad asked.

"Okay, well we found Sarah at the lake crying. And well Brandon broke up with her. And like Sarah started calling me a bitch and everything and so she was so close to slapping me but Troy stopped her and said exactly, 'Don't you dare hit the girl I love'" she explained. Everyone remained silent.



"Ella!" Troy shouted running into the cabin. Gabriella shut her eyes, back towards Troy. Troy jogged in front of Gabriella and engulfed her into a hug. Gabriella opened her eyes and looked at her friends questioning. They all shrugged. "I'm sorry"

Gabriella simultaneously put her arms around him and gave him an awkward hug. "What for?"

"I don't exactly know…are you..mad?" he pulled back analyzing her face.

"Mad about what?" she asked with a questioning look.

"That…That I love you?"

"Oh" she said. "No?"

"Oh" he said awkwardly. "Uh, then what….can we just take a walk?" he asked looking around the cabin seeing their friends.

"Sure" Gabriella said. "Wait, can I just talk to Taylor and Kelsi real quick?"

"Yeah" he said rubbing his neck. Taylor and Kelsi got up and they walked to porch.

"Guys I don't know what to do!" Gabriella shouted quietly.

"Well, how do you feel about Troy loving you?" Taylor asked.

"Shocked and happy" she grinned.

"Okay, so then why were you being so..awkward and weird?" Kelsi questioned.

"Uh, how was I suppose to react?"

"Well, tell him you love him back!" Taylor shouted.

"That's the thing.." Gabriella bit her bottom lip. "I don't love him.."

"WHAT!?" The two girls screamed. The three guys looked through the windows and the 3 girls gave their thumbs up, then the guys disappeared behind the curtains.

"I don't love him though.. just like, a lot. Like a lot, lot. It's close to love but not all the way there" she explained. Kelsi and Taylor stood there remaining silent. Gabriella sighed. "What do I do?"

"Just talk to him, and tell him how you feel" Kelsi advised.

"Yeah, good idea!" Taylor agreed. Gabriella nodded and they went back in with the guys.

The guys, couple minutes earlier.



Once the 3 girls left, Troy just stood there sighing. "Guys, what am I suppose to do? She doesn't love me. I should've been more careful of what I say"

"Nah, Gabriella likes you, A LOT, man. Don't worry bout it." Chad told his best friend.

"Yeah but she doesn't love me. I just made one of the biggest mistakes of my life" he sighed.

"No you didn't. Gabriella and you could get together now!" Jason realized.

"WHAT!?" They heard the girls screamed. They dashed for the window only to see the girls giving them a thumbs up. They shook their heads and went back to the middle of the cabin.

"Just, talk to her? Normally? Maybe you guys will date, that is if you ask her" Chad helped.

"Okay fine" Troy sighed. The door opened revealing the girls. "You ready for that walk yet?"

"Mhmm, can we go to the lake instead?" Gabriella suggested.

"Sure" Troy agreed. They left the cabin and took a silent walk to the lake. "Soo" Troy broke the silence.

"Yeaaaaaaaaah"

Troy rubbed the back of his neck nervously and gave off a chuckle. "Do you..do you love me?" They reached the lake and lied down.

Gabriella frowned and Troy did the same. "No" Troy looked the other way hiding his watered eyes. "Hey" she said sitting up and cupped his head in her hands facing hers. "I like you a lot. Like a lot a lot. Just..not love..yet" she said pushing a piece of hair away from his eyes. He didn't reply. Gabriella frowned.

"Why not?"

"Because… I don't know. I just can't trust anyone right now after what happened with Zeke" She said pulling her knees to her chest and resting her chin on her knees, looking out at the lake.

"You can trust me. You know that Ella" he said sitting up, facing her.

"Yeah, I know. I'm just afraid of getting hurt again."

"I won't hurt you baby." He said rubbing his thumbs in circles on her arm. Gabriella sniffed and he put his arms around her kissing her temple. Gabriella rested her head against his chest hoping he would ask her to be his girlfriend.

"Okay" she said wrapping her own hands around his torso.



"Come on, lets get back to the cabin and go to bed." He said standing up and pulling her up as well. The two went back to the cabin in silence, holding hands.

"Oh my god! Are you guys dating now!?" Taylor squealed. Gabriella let go of Troy's hand and walked to the bathroom in silence.

"No" Troy said once she was in the bathroom.

"What? Why!?" Chad asked.

"Just..don't worry about it." Was all where Troy left it at and falling into a deep thought.

Gabriella woke up at 12 in the morning and couldn't find Troy but a note.

If you just woke up, im at the lake, text me and tell me if your coming or not.

Xoxo Troy

Gabriella sighed and reached for her phone.

To: Troy Boy :P

Im coming

She got out of bed and fixed up a little and left to the lake. She walked to the lake and saw candles and a blanket. She grinned and walked around looking for Troy but he was no where to be found. A few moments later she heard a guitar strumming and she looked at where it came from. Troy emerged from the bush singing and playing the guitar, making Gabriella smile.

They come and go but they don't know
That you are my beautiful
I try to come closer with you
But they all say we won't make it through

But I'll be there forever
You will see that it's better
All our hopes and our dreams will come true
I will not disappoint you
I'll be right there for you 'til the end
The end of time
Please be mine

I'm in and out of love with you
Trying to find if it's really true


oh no no no no
How can I prove my love
If they all think I'm not good enough

But I'll be there forever
You will see that it's better
All our hopes and our dreams will come true
I will not disappoint you
I will be right there for you 'til the end
The end of time
Please be mine

I can't stop the rain from falling
Can't stop my heart from calling you
It's calling you
I can't stop the rain from falling
Can't stop my heart from calling you
It's calling you
I can't stop the rain from falling
Can't stop my heart from calling you
It's calling you

But I'll be there forever
You will see that it's better
All our hopes and our dreams will come true
I will not disappoint you
I will be right there for you 'til the end
The end of time
Please be mine

"Gabriella will you be my girlfriend?" Troy asked caressing her cheek.

Gabriella gave a soft, warm smile. "Yeah, I will" she said giving him a hug. Troy kissed the top of her head.

"I love you Ella" Gabriella pulled back and looked into his shining blue eyes.

"Im sorry but im not ready to love you" Troy's face fell. "but, I like you a lot, know that okay?" she said caressing his cheek.

"Okay" he said kissing her head again as she pressed her head against his chest.

"Can-can we not kiss yet? I want my first one to be really special" she explained.

"Sure baby" he said pulling back. Gabriella grinned. He was always so understanding and she loved that. "Come on, lets lay down for a while." The new couple laid out on the blanket, Gabriella molded into Troy with her head on his chest while Troy's arm is around her waist.



"I liked that song that you sang" she grinned against his chest.

Troy grinned. "Really? I wrote it just for you." He said stroking her hair.

"Aw, your too sweet" she giggled softly.

"Thanks baby." He sighed. "So how was your day?"

"It was interesting and great"

"That's good to hear." He chuckled.

"I guess, how was your day?" she asked looking up at him.

"It was great" he kissed the top of her head. Gabriella smiled and yawned. "Let's go back to bed" he pulled her up with him and they walked back to the cabin in silence.

Once they reached the cabin, Gabriella brushed her teeth and went to lay in bed next to Troy, he put his arms around her waist and her face was buried in his chest. "Good night, Ella. I love you" he said kissing the top of her head.

"Good night Troy" she said pulling up and kissing his cheek.

Gabriella's POV

I woke up to my phone buzzing but no Troy next to me. I yawned looking around thinking he was in the bathroom and shrugged it off. I fixed myself up a little and went to the lake with my hoodie on.

"Icee" I giggled as I reached the lake.

"Cream" Alex chuckled.

"Hey. Whatsup?" I asked while laying down.

"Not much what about you?" he replied.

"Same here" I sighed.

"You seem kind of cheerful and happy" he chuckled.

I giggled. "Yeah, actually I am"



"Oh, and why is that?" he questioned.

"I have the most perfect boyfriend ever! He's so sweet and kind and ah, im so close to being in love with him right now, and he loves me and I just love it all!" i giggled.

"Keep going, I know your not done" he chuckled while I giggled.

"Thanks, hmm, well he's really understanding. I love that,but sometimes, i get scared when he's mad, like it reminds me of when he used to hurt me" I said the last part quietly.

"He used to hurt you?"

"Yeah….like in high school. He bullied me and its all so weird and confusing but its all different now, and I'm really glad about that! But what im afraid of is if he becomes famous then he'll forget all about me find someone better or something like that"

"Aw, im sure he won't be like that, maybe? I don't even know the guy..but keep going"

Trust me..everyone knows who he is.. "Hmm, well he's just a great guy and everything im so close to loving him, its like, never been like this before" i giggled.

"Okay, mushy much?" he chuckled, I giggled. "Your very giggly today" he chuckled. "Well, I got myself a girlfriend!" he kind of shouted.

"Really?! What's she like?" I asked curiously.

"She's absolutely beautiful. She never needs make-up or anything. She's really sweet and nice. She can stand up for herself whenever she has to and I love her so much you don't even know. I can see myself with her, married and having kids."

"Yeah, and you call me mushy" I giggled.

"Whatever" he chuckled.

"Can-can I suggest something?" I asked hesitantly.

"Sure"

"Can we like show ourselves? Because we both have someone we practically love, well you but im almost there and like well, I just don't want to be falling for you when I have someone"



"Yeah, I feel the exact same" he chuckled nervously. We both stood up and walked to each other. Once we were in front of each other we both took off our hoods from our jacket and gasped.

"Troy?"

"Ella?" we shot out.

"Wow" I said.

No ones POV

"So that's why I can't find you sometimes at this time in the morning" he chuckled.

"Hmm, so your Alex, that's very interesting and shocking" Gabriella giggled. They both interlaced our fingers with each others.

"Yeah, I definitely agree Brie he chuckled. How could we not know?"

"I don't know" Gabriella giggled.

"Why didn't you tell me you felt that way?" Troy asked.

Gabriella frowned. "I don't know. But im really scared it would happen.."

Troy pulled Gabriella into a hug. "I would never hurt you again, I promise you that, and I won't ever forget you and find someone better. I love you way too much to do that baby, don't forget that okay?" he said putting a strand of hair behind her ear.

Gabriella smiled. "Okay" she said kissing his cheek. "So you can see us together when we're older having kids and being a family?" she asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Maybe" Troy murmured.

"Awh, that is so sweet" I giggled. Troy chuckled.

"Promise me something Ella?"

"Anything"

"Promise me that we can tell each other anything even if its bad or something, and always tell me if I hurt you"

"I promise Troy, you'll be the first person I'll tell anything to." Gabriella said. The couple went to lay down on the grass and they were silent for a while, just enjoying each 

other's presence, Gabriella laying on top of Troy and Troy's arms around her. "Troy?" Gabriella broke the silence.

"hmm?" he murmured into her hair.

"I love you" she smiled softly.

Troy sat up, making Gabriella slide slightly, grinning goofily. "I love you too baby" he said kissing her cheek. Gabriella rested her head on his chest again, both silent and happy. After more silence and Gabriella thinking, she straddled her waist and sat on Troy grinning. "What are you thinking?" He asked snaking his arms around her waist.

Gabriella didn't answer. Instead she leaned down and gave him a soft, sweet kiss on the lips and pulled back smiling. "Maybe that's what I was thinking" she winked.

"Oh god" he chuckled and pulled her down to his level and kissed her back,they continued kissing, not wanting to end the perfect moment.


Aw yay! They're finally together! That was such a cute chapter, don't you think? (: I'm gonna have a one-shot up sometime this week. I have school next Monday! YAY! (: ha ha ha.

The song Troy sung was Please Be Mine-Jonas Brothers
