Troy stood staring at his lost love, trying to think of anything to say to her. He hadn't spoken to her since he ended the relationship, and he had regretted it ever since.
"Ehm how are you…?" Troy asked, whilst trying to keep his composure. Gabi just staring straight at him unnerved him a little, but he kept her gaze.
After a few seconds, Gabi realized she was staring at him, and quickly turned to Danny and Katy.
"I'm so sorry but I have to go, I'll call you from the office to confirm everything" Gabi said, and with a final fleeting glance at Troy, she walked briskly out of the hall ignoring the call of Troy trying to get her attention. She quickly grabbed a taxi and told him to take her to her office; maybe there she could get her head in order. Everything was flooding back to her,. The break-up, the heartache, and every feeling and emotion she had felt during the lowest point of her life so far.
Tears were pricking her eyes as she paid the driver and entered the high rise building. She walked into her office and closed the door. As she was sorting out her muddled up thoughts, the phone rang, bringing Gabi out of the trance she had been in for a while now.
"Hello, Gabriella Montez speaking" She answered, "Gabi, its Troy, please don't hang up!". Gabriella let out a sigh, she knew she would have to listen to him at some point, might as well be over the phone.
"What is it Troy?" she asked, "Gabi, I need to see you, explain some stuff, and you know, catch up a bit, please?" he replied. "I don't know Troy, I've got lots to do for the wedding, I'm busy" she said. Troy sighed at the other end of the phone and said "Look, if you don't come to see me, I'll just come up into this big building in front of me and make you listen". "Fine Troy I'll come down now" she sighed.
Troy waited nervously outside Gabi's office, trying to remember what he was even going to say to her. When he heard the door open and saw Gabi come out his breath caught in his throat.
She walked over to him and stopped in front of him, "Ok so talk" she said.
"Ok, listen Gabi, ever since the day we broke up I've regretted it so much. I was such an idiot to end things with you and I should have had the guts to talk to you about my concerns, instead of jumping to conclusions. Look, I still love you but I totally understand if you don't want anything to do with me, I'll let you go and we can both go back to our lives, but I would never forgive myself if I didn't try!" Troy stopped for a reaction, trying to read the look in Gabi's eyes.
"Troy, you don't understand how much you hurt me, I don't want to open that wound again, I made rules for myself when you broke my heart. I'm not going to get hurt by you again, I wont let it happen. Now I have to go, before I end up falling all over again." She replied.
At this, she turned on her heel and walked back into the building leaving a broken Troy stunned outside. Tears were streaming down her face as she walked over to her desk and started to write a new song. An hour and plenty of tears later, she walked over to the piano and started to sing.
I'm here, just like I said
Though it's breaking every rule I've ever made
My racing heart, is just the same;
Why make it strong to break it once again?
And I'd love to say "I do";
Give everything to you
But I could never now be true
So I say...
I think I better leave right now
Before I fall any deeper
I think I better leave right now
Feeling weaker and weaker
Somebody better show me how
Before I fall any deeper
I think I better leave right now
I'm here, so please explain
Why you're opening up a healing wound again
I'm a little more careful, perhaps it shows
But if I lose the highs at least I'm spared the lows
Now I tremble in your arms
What could be the harm?
To feel my spirit calm?
So I say...
I think I better leave right now
Before I fall any deeper
I think I better leave right now
Feeling weaker and weaker
Somebody better show me how
Before I fall any deeper
I think I better leave right now
I wouldn't know how to say
How good it feels seeing you today
I see you've got your smile back
Like you say - you're right on track
But you may never know why
Once bitten, twice as shy
If I'm proud, perhaps I should explain
I couldn't bear to loose you again
Yes, I will.
I think I better leave right now
Feeling weaker and weaker
Somebody better show me how
Before I fall any deeper...
I think I better leave right now
She stopped playing and immediately broke down, how was she going to face Troy at the wedding now, she had to pull herself together and get business done, the time for crying was done.
As always, please review!!
