Okay so I didn't get as many reviews as I hoped I would on the last chapter but I will still update, It has been so busy all week with my summer job I can only update now, I have even just finished babysitting!

Chapter 7

Gabriella sat in the waiting room half asleep due to the tiring day, this was the last thing she wanted. After what seemed like an eternity the nurse said the name she had been waiting for.

"Mrs. Bolton?" said the nurse looking for a face to match the name. Gabi stood up with Chad and Taylor by her side. The nurse led them to Troys room. Before they entered the doctor came to discuss his condition.

"Please tell me he's ok" said a concerned and distressed Gabi.

"He has a concussion but he was wearing a seat belt which we are hoping prevented brain damage, he will need a scan just to make sure, however if you remember the position he was in when you found him in, well..he has broken his penis on the gear stick" said the doctor. Chad doubled up laughing and then recieved a poke in the ribs from Taylor. Gabi nodded not knowing if she should laugh, be relieved or cry. She thanked the doctor and walked into Troys room. The doctor had also told her that he was still in and out of consciousness. She saw him out cold with wires attached to him. She found the constant beep from the heart monitor comforting after the worst case scenarios went through her head.

"Gabs do you want us to stay with you?" asked Taylor.

"I'm ok now guys I know he's being looked after, and It's your wedding night, go have fun" she winked at Taylor which made her blush.

"Thanks Gabi, we'll see you later once we've had some sleep" said Chad. He grinned and kissed Taylor on the check.

"For some reason I don't think you guys are going back to the hotel room to sleep" said Gabi raising her eyebrow.

"You might be onto something there Gabs" said Chad wrapping an arm around Taylors waist "Come on Mrs. Danforth". Taylor blushed again as the two left the room.

"Oh to be newlyweds with not a care in the world" said Gabi to herself. She sat down next to Troy and moved some hair out of his eyes. She sighed thinking about all the what-ifs. What if she had packed an extra dummy just in case? What if they had waited to put the twins to bed and then Bella would have been more tired and didn't need the dummy? What if that driver had just gone for a drive a bit later? What if she had gone instead of Troy? She pulled a comfy chair next to Troys bed and closed her eyes just for a moment.

When she opened her eyes she found his bed empty. She panicked thinking the worse and ran out to the nurses station.

"Troy Bolton, yes he was brought down for a scan of his brain 20 minutes ago, he should be back in the room in about 25 minutes" said the nurse.

"Oh, thanks" said Gabi "Em where's the canteen?" she asked as she felt her stomach grumble. The nurse pointed down the hall and Gabriella quickly headed in that direction. Once she had purchased her food she went to sit down when she saw a familiar face.

"Gabi what are you doing here?" asked Ryan Evans. At that moment Gabi broke down in tears, after trying to be strong even in front of her best friends she needed a shoulder to cry on.

"Gabs what is it? Are you ok? Did something happen to Bella, Tyler, Troy?" he asked sitting down next to her.

"Troy" she sobbed "He was in a car crash" she then told him all about her hectic night.

"Wait why are you here?" she asked.

"Oh Sharpays best friend had a baby, her license is suspended so she asked me to drive her here" he said. Gabi nodded silently, even hearing her name reminded her of all the pain she caused. Sensing this Ryan changed the subject.

"So how are Bella and Tyler?" he asked.

"They are great, and it's so nice to see their own personaities now, you should come visit more, Bella loves her uncle Ryan" said Gabi smiling.

"Thanks again for making me her godfather, after everything that happened, I thought we would lose contact completely" said Ryan.

"You're a great godfather and you'll be a great dad when the time comes, it's crazy isn't it, I mean who would have guessed that I'd be 20, well almost 21, married with two kids!" exclaimed Gabi.

"Sure is" Ryan paused for a moment "Gabriella, do you think we'd still be together if the twins hadn't come along?" he asked for the first time since the break up almost 3 years ago.

"Honestly Ryan, I love you but I wasn't in love with you, you mean so much to me... but I'm a strong believer that whatever happens is meant to happen and I think I was meant to end up pregnant, because that meant I ended up with Troy" she told him as gently as she could. Ryan nodded, part of him always knew that but he had to ask.

"Hey will you come with me to see if Troy is awake, Taylor and Chad went back to the hotel so I'm by myself" she asked him.

"Sure Gabi" he stood up with her and left the canteen. Once they entered Troys room they noticed he was finally awake. Gabi rushed over and hugged him. He looked slightly confused and looked over at Ryan who smiled back at him.

"Troy I'm so glad your awake, I've been so worried, I wish I hadn't asked you go go get that dummy for Bella" said Gabi close to tears. Troy looked even more confused.

"Who's Bella?" he asked. Gabi's heart stopped for a moment.

"Our daughter of course" she replied.

"What?!" he exclaimed. Gabi recoiled shaking her head. She rushed out the door and ran to the nurses station.

"My husband can't remember our daughter, he must have memory loss" she sobbed. Luckily Troys doctor heard her talking to the nurse.

"Mrs. Bolton, yes I was just coming to talk to you about that, his memory has been affected by the crash but we are not sure how extensive it is" he said walking with her to Troys room.

"Troy, what age are you?" the doctor asked him.

"18" replied Troy.

"21!" shouted Gabi as she broke down in tears. The doctor sighed.

"This is worse than expected" said the doctor.

Thank Goodness I finished this chapter, one of the hardest to write, I don't know why though... Anyways please tell me what you thought, I'm not very happy with it, but I've rewritten most of it twice and I just can't do it again!
