I haven't updated in FOREVER. I've just been so busy lately with school because I'm in so many extra-curricular activities. But this story is done. Almost. Just one more chapter after this one. No Ones POV
Disclaimer- I do not own the HSM characters.
Recap:
"What are you doing here?" I asked as I stared at Tyler. Who would have thought after all he's caused he would be back here. "Look can I see you daughter…s?" He asked. I was guessing the s was to see both of them. "No you can't see my daughters. Do you know what you've caused following your father's footsteps?" I asked. He stared at me with thought. "No. But Mr. Bolton its hard to go on with my life knowing you hot daughters are mad at me." He confessed. "Good to know. Nice try. But no." I said. "But-" I slammed the door shut.
"Who was that?" Gabriella asked as she pressed a wet towel against Audrina's neck. "Tyler." I answered. "How does he have the audacity to come back her after what he did to Audrina?" Gabriella sighed. Tyler, a simple 14 year old boy was destroying this family.
End Of Recap
Chapter 12
Always in my heart
"Oh gosh, where is it?" Gabriella asked as she closed the closet. Even though she was living in the same room as Troy, who wasn't exactly the cleanest person ever, she couldn't find it. It was something that couldn't be easily lost with carelessness. She began to calm down and started to back-track to what she did to it.
Now she remembered." Man…" She let out a sigh. "Did you leave another thing at Ryans'?" Troy asked as he walked into the bedroom. Gabriella turned to face him and sighed again. "Yeah. But this thing is really important. I really need this." She explained to him. She told it as a question but it sounded more like a persuasive question.
"So what is this important thing that you need?" Troy asked as he grabbed his keys. "It's a scrapbook. I know it sounds weird but its really important to me." She continued to explain. "Adriana do you need anything?" She called as she walked up the stairs. He stared at her blankly.
"Why, are you finally going to his house?" Adriana said meeting her halfway down the stairs. "Yeah finally. So do you need anything?" She asked once more.
"I don't know. Can't I just come with you to see if I do?" Adriana asked rephrasing Gabriella question. "I guess so. Call your sister." Gabriella answered walking back down the stairs. Troy continued to stare at her but now with a more disappointed look. "Okay, I know what you're thinking but look at it this way. You are going to be there so if things get out of hand you can handle them." She explained before he had a chance to say anything.
"We're ready!" Adriana yelled as she walked down the stairs. ""How you feeling Audrina?" Troy asked. "A little better. At least the scar isn't that noticeable." She said turning her neck and revealing the scar.
"AND you tell me my house is huge…..look at this!" Audrina said in amazement. She walked farther into the house separating herself and Adriana from their parents. "Yeah well Ryan just bought it to impress my mom." Adriana explained in disgust. "Hurry up girls!" Gabriella called from the living room. "Come on." Adriana led her to her room.
"Wow, you're like a mini Sharpay with all these diamonds and pinks." Audrina concluded as she walked out of Adriana's closet. "Again, he was spoiling me to impress my mom. Look at this." She threw the white velvet box across the room. "Did he propose to you?" Audrina laughed.
As she opened the box her eyes widened in shock. "Are these real diamonds?" She took the necklace out of the box and began to study its detail.
"I got it for my thirteenth birthday. But I've never worn it." Adriana said as she zipped her bag closed. "Wow. This must be worth a lot." Audrina pondered, placing the necklace back in the box and placed it back on the table. "Let's go." Adriana picked up the bag and headed out the room.
"HOW many scrapbooks do you exactly own, Gabriella?" Troy and Gabriella were collected just a few thing , mainly scrapbooks, for Gabriella. "I'm not really sure. But I got another box packed." Gabriella ordered. Troy groaned in frustration before picking up the box and walking out the door. "Wait , here's another one!" He turned around expecting Gabriella but it was Adriana with more boxes and bags. "Oh boy." He said under his breath. Adriana added the boxes and bags on top of the load Troy was already carrying before going back up to her room to go pack more things.
"So…." Gabriella turned around from her packing and looked over across the room. "What do you want Ryan?" She asked in a harsh tone. He began walking towards her with a sympathetic look on his face.
"Hmm, you came back to me. I knew you would. Sharpay just doesn't listen." He said continuing to walk towards her. Gabriella took a deep breath before objecting. "No, I actually did not come back to you. I'm just here to get some things so if you would excuse me…" She explained as she attempted to walk past him but she was stopped.
"Do you really want to go?" He asked pushing her back into the wall. She looked up at him, staring into his eyes filled with anger. "What do you want?" She struggled to break from his lock on her. "I want you. That's what I want." He replied moving closer to her face. She now began feeling his warm breath beating down on her neck. Again, she tried to break from his strong hold but like before she did not succeed.
"Try as hard and as much as you want to but I'm not letting go. Lucky I'm not doing you like Tyler did to your daughter." He said pusher harder against her. She stopped and looked back up at him. "How did you know about that?" She asked. He let out a laugh. "How could I not? I set it up myself." He answered proudly. Gabriella now began to look at him with disgust.
"Gabriella?" Troy was calling her and his footsteps were getting closer to the room.
"Ryan just get off of me!" She ordered. Reluctantly, he stared at her then let go of her. She rubbed her aching wrists before looking over at him. "Ryan?" She asked. He stared at her for a couple of seconds before walking out of the room.
She walked towards a chair in the room and sat down, trying to recap what had just happened. "Gabriella have you seen Ryan? I mean he looks so….down. Did you talk to him?" Troy asked making himself present. "Yeah." She answered sadly. Her tears were threating to fall but she wouldn't let them otherwise Troy was going to get worried. She sighed quietly. "Gabriella do you need a moment? I could go if you want me to?" He asked edging towards the door. "No, let's just go." She answered lying to herself.
"IS mom okay?" Audrina asked as she watched her mother walk straight to the bedroom. "I don't know. Maybe we should call Aunt Taylor." Adriana suggested.
The twins agreed before picking up the phone and dialing the number.
Within minutes there was a knock on the door.
"Where's Gabriella?" Taylor asked. The twins pointed to the door down the hall. "She hasn't been out ever since we came back. She won't even let dad in." Audrina warned. Taylor nodded to the twins before heading towards the bedroom. "Gabriella?" She called from the door. She heard a couple of sniffs before a definite answer. "Tay is that you?" Gabriella called. Taylor opened the door revealing a crying Gabriella. "What's wrong Gabriella?" She asked walking towards her friend.
Gabriella sighed before falling back into the bed. "A lot of things. Its' just too much to handle. And oh my gosh Ryan…" Gabriella managed to say before she broke out into another sob. Taylor couldn't do anything but just watch her suffer painfully. "Why don't you talk to Troy about it. Maybe he can help you." Taylor advised. Gabriella sat up and stared at Taylor through her watery eyes.
"But Troy can't help me. I need to talk to Ryan." She said sighing. Taylor widened her eyes. " You mean Troy. Why would you talk to Ryan. He's….." Taylor trailed off. Gabriella looked at Taylor again and tears began to threaten to fall again. "Sorry. Why don't you go talk to him?" Taylor suggested. Gabriella began to smile and her lessened. "That's a great idea." She agreed as she got out of bed.
Taylor stared at her an began to wonder about her moods. "Thanks Tay." She thanked. Taylor got up and walked towards the door. "Good luck." She wished. "How'd it go?" Audrina asked as soon as Taylor walked out the door. "I don't know what happened at Ryan's but she's going over there to talk to him." Taylor explained. The twins shot nervous looks at each other. " Oh gosh." Adriana whispered under her breath. Gabriella walked out of the hall all dressed up and in a much perky mood than before. "Mom where are you going?" Adriana asked following her mother.
"Nowhere. I'll be back. Love you." She called as she closed the door. Adriana turned around and looked at her twin and Taylor. "Before she was in a much worse mood than that." She said sitting next to Taylor. "Girls, don't worry. Your mom will be okay." Taylor assured both herself and the twins. "Hey where's Gabriella?" Troy said bringing himself into the conversation. Audrina and Adriana stared at him with sadness. "Okay what happened?" He asked again. Adriana quickly changed her facial expression then began to answer. "Oh…She went out…to the store." She said piecing words together. He began to look at her suspicious. "Seriously." She said again. "Okay." He answered leaving it at that.
GABRIELLA knocked on the door quietly then backed up a few paces. She did feel guilty about not telling anybody about this not even her best friend but she had to clear things up with him. "What do you want?" Ryan opened the door at a small angle just barely enough to see half of his face. "Hi to you too. Um Actually, I was wondering if we could talk." She asked him smiling weakly at him. He opened the door more and let her in.
"Look today, it was kinda awkward for me. You...I just can't describe it." She said sighing. He walked towards her then began to back away. Shocked, Gabriella backed away also. "Do you still love me Gabriella?" He asked randomly. As much and Gabriella wanted to say yes she didn't. "I don't love you. I just still have feelings for you." She answered. Gabriella could feel her warm tears sliding slowly down her face. " I still love you though." He admitted. " With Troy back in my life and the twins together everything is great. But you were there to help me through my time of need. Thanks." She said choking through her tears.
He walked towards her and wiped a tear. "I'm always here for you Gabriella." He said looking at her. "I know. Even though I'm not always gonna think of you, I'll always remember you in my heart." She said as she wrapped her arms him. He pulled away from her and kissed her forehead gently. "I love you Gabriella." He said. She quietly waved goodbye before walking out. Even though, she still had feelings for Ryan she knew she had to let go because her love for Troy was stronger.
SHE opened the front door and stared within. There was Troy just sitting, looking like he was waiting for her. "Troy before you say anything…I was at Ryan's talking. I wanted to clear things up between us." She began to explain. He straight at her making her nervous. "Gabriella, what happened today?" He asked walking towards her. She let out her millionth sigh for today then began to talk. " I don't really know. I just had an emotional breakdown." She began to explain. His eyes filled with comfort as she started to explain. eyes filled with comfort as she continued to explain. "Why?" He asked.
"I don't know. It might have something to do with me being pregnant." She answered.
Gabriella's pregnant?
