Chapter Four
I hopped in my car after finishing up at the coffee shop. Troy called me up and said he had a surprise about the firm. He told me it was crucial for me to be there before the day was over. I swear, if he's playing some kinda joke on me...he's dead! I have a headache, and I'm confused. Yes, it's about the dream. It freaked me out, yet it felt so right. As if it were really happening. I can't explain it, but I felt every single touch of his. It felt good, and that's what scares me. The fact that I enjoyed every touch and sensation that he'd made me feel even if it was a dream. Gosh! Why can't I get this out of my head?!
"Argh!" I said loudly as I burried my head in my hands.
"Hey" Troy's voice came from in front of me. "Everything okay?" He asked, concern evident in his voice.
"I'm fine, just...confused." He nodded in understanding and gave me a soft smile.
"You want to talk about it?" As much as I trust and love Troy, this was something I definitely couldn't tell him.
"I don't think I should." He seemed shocked and a bit hurt. He nodded once more and cleared his throat.
"Well, I approved the building over in South Carolina. I think we'd have much more bussiness if we expanded."
"Sounds logical to me. All we need to do now is get a few people out there, and a good supervisor."
"Yeah. Who should we let go? Everyone here will fall apart without you or me here." True. As a team, all of us are strong, but without Troy or myself they would break under the pressure.
"So...that means one of us has to go." I breathed. There was this huge silience. I'm not so sure about what's going on in his head, but in mine...there's only one thought. That's being away from him. Not being away like on vacation with my divorced parents, but being away as in on the other side of the country.
"Listen, I know it's a lot to ask, but I was wondering if you could go. Cassie wants to stay close to her family. They're here in New Mexico. If we leave, she'll be heart broken." I love how he puts her happiness in front of mine. Don't you?! Folks, that's a little taste of sarcasm. Isn't it just lovely?
"Yeah, sure. I can go. I've always wanted to move." I'm lying right now. Wouldn't he know that? I love NM! Who would ever want to leave? This place is my home, and now I'm being forced out of it because little-miss-carrott-top doesn't want to leave her mom and dad? They just moved here last year! You know, the more I think about it...the more this engagement is becoming a pain in the...
"As long as you're sure? You seem a little ticked." Wow he can still read my like a book after inhaling all the hairspray she uses?!
"Troy, I'm fine. Go tell her the good news." I smiled fakely.
"No need! I heard it all!" Cassandra walts into my office and put her arms around my Troy!...My Troy?
"Great!" I laughed fakely. See a pattern forming in my actions? Troy's cell phone went off and he went outside to take a call.
"I have to go. Chad and the guys want to talk about suits." He laughed. He kissed me on the cheek and then kissed Cassandra on the mouth...BLEH!! "You gonna be okay?" He asked with his hand still on her left cheek. She nodded and smiled.
"This gives us sometime to talk girl talk!" She beamed. Oh great!
"What do you wanna talk about?" Seriously, the last time we hung out was when she and Troy were dating for 16 months?
"Troy." Curse this subject!
"Okay...what about him?" This girl is seriously evil. The one thing I want to avoid at the moment, she picks!
"Well, there must be something about him that you know that I don't." Trust me carrott-top, there's a lot. "He won't tell me anything about who he dated in high school." My eyes widened.
"No?" Was all I could get out.
"Not her name at least! It was this one girl. All he said was that he loved her so much and that she was so breath-taking and how everyone loved them together. They even had a nickname! You know, like 'Zanessa'. They had one like that. He wouldn't tell me what it was though." She exclaimed. When those words left her mouth...I knew he was talking about us. We were known as 'Troyella'. Did he really love me? Did he really say I was breath-taking?! Aw shucks!
"Hm, doesn't ring a bell." If Troy didn't tell her, than neither should I.
"Are you sure?" I nodded as she let out a breath. "Oh well. What about Seth?"
"What about him?" I countered.
"Are you two seeing each other?"
"No, we're just really good friends."
"Yeah, and Zanessa broke up." She scoffed. Why wouldn't she believe me?!
"I'm serious. Nothing happened that night accept for one little kiss." It's true. I even used my fingers to show her how little! I know I believe myself.
"Well what about the dancing? Friends don't dance like that Gabriella." Troy and I do. Deja vu much?
"That's all we were doing." She raised her hands up in defense and smiled. She's easy to talk to, but man if she doesn't use her interrogation skills from time to time.
"Okay, but would you ever date him again?" Would I? Seth is wise, sophistcated, humorous and sexy. Then again, so is Troy.
"Yeah. There's nothing not to like. He understands me." I speak the truth!
"That's sweet. Who knows, you and Seth might be the next to get married. By the way, tell him he's invited." I nodded and smiled. I raised my eyebrows. My mind just took in what she said.
"Why?" She barely knows him, and Troy can barely stand him.
"Well, you need a date for the wedding and going with him would be perfect. You already know each other, so there wouln't be any of those akward silences." She makes some sense...
"I can undertsand that. I mean, 6 months isn't a whole lot of time to get a date anyway. Well, unless you count one of those escort service things." Cassandra and I laughed.
"Yeah. I'm really sorry about all this. We just can't wait to settle down together. He's just so perfect!" She gushed.
"He's not perfect. Once, he left the toilet seat up and I fell in." She laughed again.
"Yeah, that's happened to me too." We laughed once more. If there was anything the two of us had in common, it was the fact that both of us could share our weird expireinces that happend with Troy. I know that you guys have been through everything. Even when your parents got divorced. Troy dropped everything he was doing with me and came to your rescue. It's like he has 'Gabi Senses'." I giggled a little at her words.
"I've gotta head out, but thanks for talking and stuff. I'll meet up with you guys tomorrow." I waved my hand as I left my office. So many things are going through my head...again! There was nothing I could do to take my mind off of Cassandra's words. Why hadn't Troy told her about us? Was he embarrased? No. It couldn't be that. The way he'd talked about it to her was too detailed for embarrasment. Note to self: ask Troy about this next time he sleeps over! I felt a vibration coming from my pocket.
"Hello?" I answered as I picked up the phone.
"How're things with Cassie?" Troy!
"Good. I actually just left."
"I just wanted to remind you about tomorrow morning."
"I'm a lawyer Troy, I don't forget little details and events." I smirked. There was no way he could counter that!
"Ha Ha. I'll be picking you up early since it's about an hour drive."
"Fine by me minster morning person." Troy chuckeled, and I could tell he was smiling.
"Bright and early! I don't want to have to drag you out of bed, but I will." Blah, blah, blah!
"Okay Dad." He laughed again.
"I gotta go. Bye Gabs!"
"Bye." I closed my phone after I heard the 'click'. I noticed that I was grinning like a fool the entire time I was on the phone. Why? Why was all of this happening now? Nothing in that conversation was funny...I think? Why am I all happy when he calls?
This is all too confusing for me...
