Troy quietly crept down the hallway to the bathroom.

It had been about 45 minutes since the ordeal, and he was dying to just hold Gabriella in his arms again.

He slowly stepped up to the bathroom door, and pressed his ear against it.

He heard quiet sobs coming from the other side.

" Gabriella?" He asked softly.

He heard the lock click and a small crack opened from the door.

He squeezed through to the other side and quietly sat down across from Gabriella.

Troy waited for her to start talking.

" Troy…I'm sorry…I look aweful!" She laughed through the tears as she swiped the still running tears.

" No you don't." Troy replied.

Gabriella smiled and looked at him.

" I guess you'll just have to choose!"

Gabriella's eyes brimmed again with tears.

Her face sunk into her hands, and was once again a sobbing mess.

Troy slid over to her and wrapped her into a bear hug.

Gabriella turned her body and cried into Troy's chest.

Troy let her as he gently rubbed her back.

" Shh…it's ok…" He soothed.

" No! It's not ok!" Gabriella exclaimed as she sat up.

Troy looked at her with a confused look on his face.

Gabriella took in a deep breath.

" Look…Troy, there's something I've been meaning-"

Faith's cries were heard from the bedroom.

Gabriella knelt her head against the bathroom door and sighed.

Troy laughed a little as he got up and went into Gabriella's room.

After a moment, Gabriella slowly and got up and followed.

It was obvious to Gabriella that Troy didn't know she had followed him.

Troy gently scooped Faith into his arms and began swaying back and forth, soothing her cries.

Gabriella stood to the side of the doorway, so she wasn't seen.

" This could be the start, of something new. It feels so right to be here with you, oh. And now looking in your eyes, I feel in my heart, the start of something new…"

Troy's gentle voice comforted the baby's cries.

Faith's eyelids slowly dropped, then would open again.

Gabriella smiled from her hiding place.

She walked into her room and wrapped her arm around Troy's waist.

He jumped a little, but smiled towards her.

He softly laid Faith back down in the crib and grabbed Gabriella's hand as he led her out to the balcony.

He sat down on the porch swing.

The light evening breeze tussled Gabriella's hair as she quietly shut the door.

She walked over to the swing and sat next to Troy.

Troy draped his arm over her shoulder.

The two sat in a relaxed silence, watching as the Albuquerque sun slowly sank into the horizon.

" So…what did you want to tell me back there?" Troy asked as he glanced over to Gabriella.

" Oh it's nothing." She said quickly.

Troy shrugged his shoulders.

Gabriella sat in nervousness.

" What am I supposed to do? I mean…I love Troy…he's my…everything…but Austin…he loves me…"

Her heart's feelings and her mind's fought through the calm scene before them

Gabriella fidgeted with her hands.

She drew an invisible line around her, still empty ring finger on her left hand.

" Someone's going to get hurt…but…who's it going to be?"
