Chapter 21
Gabriella's POV
I sat in the couch and saw Troy walk in with Evanne sleeping in his arms. He carried her in his arms upstairs. I smiled at the sight.
He walked back down and sat next to me. I leaned back onto his shoulder.
"Hey, how did the party go," I asked him.
"It went good, she had fun. None of the "mean girls" were there, so it was good." He said putting finger quotes around "mean girls". He told me.
"That's good." I said.
"How are you feeling today," He asked.
"Better than earlier." I replied.
"Good, when do you want to tell everyone." He asked me.
"Um, I know I want to tell Evanne before everyone else." I said thinking.
He nodded. "And after we tell her, we just have to find a day when everyone can get together," I added.
"Ok, when do you want to tell Evanne." He asked me.
"Um, what's today, Saturday," I asked.
"Yea, I think," Troy said.
"Ok, we can tell her tomorrow." I asked.
"It's up to you," He said.
"Ok, tomorrow." I said.
I woke up wondering how Evanne would take the news. I know she wanted she wanted a sibling, but now that's she'll have one, will she be happy.
I looked at Troy and he was still sleeping. I looked at the clock and it was nearly 7 am. I got up to go to the bathroom. As soon as my feet hit the wood tile, I felt my stomach turn around. I was around 3 months pregnant, so I'm hoping the morning sickness stops soon. I ran to the toilet and barfed everything up.
I stood up and brushed my teeth and climbed back in bed. I felt Troy stir next to me.
"You ok," He asked.
"Yea, morning sickness stinks though." I griped.
"I know," He said.
"No you don't, you never had to go through it before," I snapped.
"Sorry," He said quickly. I was still mad, but not to bad.
"Whatever, I forgive you," I said. I don't know what I forgive him for, but he said sorry!
"Are you sure, you seem mad," He asked.
"Of course I'm mad, not at you, but at other stuff, like morning sickness, and getting mad all the time," I ranted.
"Don't worry," He said hugging me. I fell back asleep in his arms.
I woke up an hour later and Troy was gone. I walked downstairs and saw him cooking breakfast with Evanne. They were making pancakes.
I laughed when Evanne poofed some flour on her face and they turned and looked at me.
"You think that's funny," Troy said. "What about this," He asked flicking flour in my face.
"Oh no you didn't," I said snapping my fingers around my head.
"Oh yes I did," He said mimicking me.
I rolled my eyes and walked to Evanne and wiped the flour off her face with a paper towel.
She laughed and used the rag to wipe the flour off my face. "Thank you," I said.
I looked at Troy, "Do we tell her now, or wait." I asked quietly.
"Now I guess," He said.
"Evanne, hon', come over here." I said walking over to Troy and kneeling down to her.
"Um, so you know how you wanted a little brother or sister." Troy started.
"Yes," She said confused.
"Well, you're going to get one in a about 7 months." I finished.
"So, I'm going to be a big sister," She asked.
"Yes," I said.
"Where is the baby," She asked.
"Um, well, you see," I looked for Troy for help. If I said in my tummy, she would want to know how it got there.
"The stork put the baby in mommy's tummy a while back," He said reading my mind and answering a future question Evanne would ask.
"Oh, ok," She said unbelievingly. Knowing her she would most likely asked Chad. And knowing him, he would answer truthfully.
"So, are you happy," I asked.
"Of Course!!" She exclaimed rolling her eyes, "Why wouldn't I be," She said.
"Well, I don't know." I said smiling.
"Will it be a girl of a boy," She asked.
"I don't know, we find out next month." I said.
"Oh, I want a little sister." She said.
"Why," I asked.
"Well, I don't want to get peed on, and I can play dress up with a girl." She told us.
I just laughed.
"Mommy, no one believes that Daddy is my daddy," I heard her say.
"Well, how bout Daddy walks you in to school Monday." I suggested.
"Ok," She said quietly, "Are the pancakes done." She asked.
"The pancakes...OH, THE PANCAKES, I forgot." Troy shouted running to the stove.
"They are burned." He said sadly.
"We can go to IHOP," I suggested.
"I guess," He said sad about losing the pancakes.
Me and Evanne ran upstairs to get dressed and we hopped in the car.
We drove to the nearest IHOP and walked inside.
"Congrats dude," We heard people say as we walked inside. We were seated quickly and we ordered our drinks. I looked at my menu for a few moments before deciding what I wanted.
The waitress came up and took our orders, a smiley face pancake for Evanne, and normal pancakes with eggs and bacon for me and Troy.
"Congratulations," A stranger said to us walking toward the door.
"Why do people keep saying that." I asked.
"I don't know," I said.
Our food came and we started eating. We finished and walked back to the car after paying. We were getting in the car when we heard a camera flash, Troy looked around and saw a head disappearing behind a bush. "Hurry, get in the car," He said.
We hurried and he drove off toward the house not thinking much of it.
In the house, I walked into the kitchen and cleaned up the spilled flour.
I few hours later, I walked in the living room and flipped through the channel and saw something on Entertainment Tonight. Troy Bolton is Off-Limits
I stopped on that channel and watched it.
Today, we received an interesting picture. As you can see, this is Troy Bolton, a mysterious woman, and a young girl. In another picture, we see this same woman leaving a drug store with Troy after buying pregnancy tests. If you look closely, you can see an engagement ring on her finger. Could there be a secret engagement going on.
I paused the TV. "TROY," I called frantically.
"Yea," He said walking into the room.
"Watch this," I said rewinding the TV.
The clip replayed and when he looked back at me, he was a bit pale.
"What do we do," I asked.
"Well, first, we should tell the family about you. We will have to wait to tell my parents until they are in town." He said.
"Yea, call the guys, I'll call the girls and my parents. See if they can go to dinner tonight at Pelican." I said grabbing my phone.
I made the calls and everyone was coming. We were meeting up there at 6 PM. I had six hours to get ready.
"I'm going to take a shower." I said walking upstairs.
I went upstairs and walked in the bathroom. I lifted my shirt up and looked at my stomach. It was perfectly flat. Not for long though.
I hurried with my shower and got dressed. It was 12:30 now, so I had a while.
I walked downstairs and saw Troy reading to Evanne.
I smiled and went back upstairs. I blow dried my hair then looked through my closet for an outfit. Settling on one, I put the shirt on so I could do my hair. I straightened it, then got my curling iron and curled a few pieces. I pulled some of it back and used a giant pin to hold it. I looked and I had 3 hours left. Took awhile to find an outfit.
I started on my makeup and soon, I was all ready.
Soon, it was time to go, and I finished putting Evanne's hair up and we walked to the car.
We reached the restaurant and got a table in the back for 8 people.
A few minutes later, everyone was there. We ordered our food, and while we were waiting for it, we decided to tell everyone.
"Um, so, we invited you guys out tonight, because we had something to tell you." I said.
"I am pregnant," I told them.
"And we are engaged," Troy said.
I smiled feebly.
Everyone jumped up and hugged me except my mom. She was already disappointed that I had Evanne when I was single.
I walked over, "Mom," I said.
"Gabriella, you had such a bright future. Why'd you have to ruin it." She said getting up leaving.
