Troy was holding Faith in one arm, and Gabriella in the other.
Gabriella had dozed off and Troy didn't have the heart to move either of them.
Gabriella was breathing lightly, her chest gracefully rising and falling.
Troy watched her sleep, he smiled.
Then troy looked down at Faith.
Faith was sprawled out over his arm and had her small hand pressed to her ear. Her face was resting on Troy's chest.
Troy rested his head back on the post of Gabriella's bed.
When he did that, Faith whimpered a little and made a crying like sound.
Gabriella's head quickly sat up at the sound of her daughter.
Troy leaned his head forward again; he smiled when he saw Gabriella's panicked face.
" It's ok. She's fine" Troy softly said as he, with his free hand, lovingly rubbed her back.
Gabriella snuggled further into his arm, " I didn't realize I fell asleep…" Gabriella softly giggled.
" Well, most people don't…" He grinned.
Gabriella looked up at him and smiled.
" She's taken to you really well…" Gabriella said as she sweetly brushed the infants cheek.
Troy looked down and smiled, " Well, I am her dad…" He said as he hugged Gabriella closer to his body.
Gabriella looked up at him and pulled his face closer to hers, she playfully kissed him, and pulled away quickly.
Troy looked at her with pleading eyes as he leaned back to her face. Gabriella melted when their lips touched, as she usually did. She brought both hands up and cupped his face; she pressed her lips harder to his, so that their noses were squished together.
She giggled lightly under the kiss, and she felt Troy's lips form a smile.
" Ahem." A stern voice said from the door.
Gabriella and Troy quickly pulled apart.
" Oh, mom…I uhh…" Gabriella blushed.
Mrs. Montez had a very straight face on; she was showing no emotion other than annoyance.
" Gabriella, I need some help in the kitchen…could you help me. Now." She said forcefully.
Gabriella nodded her embarrassed head as she slipped out of Troy's grasp.
Troy looked frightened, as he held the still soundly sleeping baby.
Mrs. Montez scowled at Gabriella as she rushed out of her room, once Gabriella left the room, her mom smiled nicely at Troy.
When Mrs. Montez went into the kitchen, Gabriella was already there, sitting like a small child at the kitchen table.
Mrs. Montez sat across from her.
" You didn't tell him, did you?" She asked with a monotone voice.
Gabriella kept her head bowed and sadly nodded her head.
" Gabriella…" Mrs. Montez whined.
Gabriella's head came up, " Mom, I just don't understand. Why do I still have feelings for Troy? I think I even still-"
" Well it doesn't matter now." Mrs. Montez interrupted.
There was a short pause as Gabriella's head sank back down.
" I found this on the sink in your bathroom." She said as she slid her hand, palm down, across the table to her daughter.
Gabriella glanced up.
Her mother slowly moved her hand off of the table, and what ever was underneath her grip.
Gabriella gave a small gasp.
Her engagement ring.
" Did you think I wouldn't find it?" Her mother said sharply.
Gabriella's eyes brimmed with tears, " I…I took it off when…I got in the shower…" She lied.
Gabriella's mother raised her eyebrows.
Gabriella shook her head in defeat, " I'm sorry mom! I…I'm just so confused…"
Gabriella's head sunk once more as she began to cry.
" Gabby, what your doing…it isn't fair…for anyone. Including yourself." Her mother said with softness.
" I know." Gabriella said as she sniffed her nose.
" So…I suppose, you have to choose…" Her mother added solomnly.
Gabriella looked up angrily, " Choose? You want me to choose? Easier said than done mom!" She exclaimed as she angrily got up and briskly walked up the stairs, her tears still rolling down her cheeks.
She went past her bedroom, where Troy was.
Troy, who had just put Faith in her crib, saw her swiftly walk by, he knew she was upset.
He stepped out into the hallway, and heard the bathroom door close, he shuddered at the sound echo of the slam.
Gabriella stood in the bathroom, before slowly sinking to the floor.
She leaned her head against the door, and brought her knees up to her chest.
Gabriella laid her head upon her knees and broke down.
She began sobbing uncontrollably.
" I'm so screwed."
