What a Drag

Chapter 22

Gabriella's POV

"Troy, just leave me alone." I yelled at him. It was five in the morning and he was getting up to go to work. It's been two days since we found out about Chad. Taylor had been keeping to herself lately and was always taking Catherine from me.

"Gabriella, come on and visit Chad. Everyone else is up and drinking their coffee. Even little cat is up." Troy whispered into my ear. He kissed it gently and I smiled. I was ticklish in my ear, but then I knew what he was doing. I paled my hand on his chest and pushed him away.

"No, don't do something that you can't finish." I said sitting up and looking at the clock. I leaned against my bedpost and looked at him. "Will Chad be able to walk again?" I asked quietly.

"Gabi…" Toy started, but I stopped him.

"Tell me." I stated.

"We're checking both of his leg veins today for any blood volt. If there is a blood clot we go right into surgery and fix him, but we can be sure." He said looking at me.

"Good, now get me my crutches and some nice undies, bra, and cloths to wear." I said looking at my pink cast. Chad even wrote his name and for once you could read his script. Sharpay handed him a pink sharpie when he asked to sign my cast, she had one…in her purse.

Half an hour alter we were sitting in the hospital room of Chad Danforth's. He was upstairs getting an MRI and a blood clot test done. Taylor was holding Catherine in her chair and staring at the empty bed. My underarms were killing me from the crutches so I took a wheelchair while Troy stored my crutches in his office. I looked at Taylor as everyone talked and her face just had this…glow if you could call it, but at the same time her she was frowning. "No I start tomorrow." Ryan answered to the gang. I turned my somewhat attention back to the gang listening to parts of their conversation.

Cloths…she borrowed my pants that I wore before Catherine was….born…" Oh my god another pregnancy?" I asked, but I didn't really realize I said it out loud.

"Pregnant?! You, again?!" I heard Sharpay yell. I looked up. "No, guys I just…Taylor help me to the bathroom." I said before anyone could ask questions. Taylor stood up and handed Catherine to Zeke. She stood behind my wheelchair and pushed me out of the room. About ten rooms down I told her to stop.

"What's wrong, Gabi?" Taylor asked.

"Your pregnant aren't you?" I asked as she collapsed in a chair close to us.

"Is it ok?" I asked wheeling myself close to her.

"Oh, it's fine…it's doing great, I was supposed to tell him last night. I planned to tell him last night. It was on my calendar. I even wrote it down three minutes before we left for the movies. I hid the test in your bathroom. I just…everything is going too fast. We were planning a wedding; I got pregnant the car crash…his memory lost and now his legs. Gabriella I thought you had it bad, but now just reflecting on what Troy did to you in the past, I would want now, not this." Taylor sobbed.

I wanted nothing, but to just stand up and hug her to death, but I couldn't. "Taylor, you know there's a chance that he'll come out walking again. And his memory Troy said that yesterday Chad even spoke of his mom." I stated.

Taylor smiled and looked at me. "Catherine, um…I've been practicing with her. Changing her diapers." Taylor said.

"Remember when Chad tried to change a diaper? He used duct tape and a roll of paper towel." I said giggling.

"And Troy with the mug." Taylor said giggling too.

"You're going to be a great mother and Chad he'll be a great father." I said smiling.

But that's when she frowned. "That's if he ever walks again." she said. I looked at her with sad eyes and was about to reply to her when Sharpay came running down the hallway. Just this morning she was complaining about her ribs and now look at her, she's running.

"Chad's back!" she yelled. Taylor stood up and went behind me immediately and started running while pushing me.

"Hey, people slow down!" I squealed as we entered Chad's room.

The room was silent as Chad looked up form the paper in front of him. "Taylor?" Chad asked. I looked behind me and saw Taylor crying. "What's wrong, baby?" he asked her. I knew he wanted to get out of bed, but he couldn't because of his legs.

"Oh god." She cried breaking down. She fell to the floor and I wheel front so Zeke and Troy could get her.

"He got his memory back?" I asked his doctor who was right next to Chad.

"Mr. Danforth got his memory back while we were testing his legs. We brought him back here for you all to ask him questions, to see if he's alright." Dr. Weiner said. "We'll have his test result back by Wednesday." He said leaving the room. Three days tills the results were back. Three days.

"What's my daughter's name?" I asked him once the door was shut.

"Her name is Catherine. The father is Troy Bolton." Chad said sitting in his bed not really getting what was going on. "Taylor, honey what's wrong?" Chad asked again as Troy and Zeke placed her in a hospital chair.

"Chad what was the last thing you remember?" Ryan asked.

Chad looked away form Taylor and looked at all of us in the eyes. "Um, movies. We went to see Harry Potter and then there was a yell and Catherine was crying. I remember a man yelling call the cops…Uh, that's it.

"We were all in a car crash." I said to him.

"Is everyone ok?" Chad asked we all nodded our heads. "Catherine?" he asked. I nodded my head again. "Taylor?" he asked looking at her.

"She's fine. She just got some scratches." Zeke said.

"Guys, I think we should let them talk." I said wheeling myself out of the room. Kelsi carried Catherine out of the room and we all just waited in the room. We could hear Taylor's sobs to Chad and then him whispering to her…why did they have to go through hell and back?

A/N ok now before anyone decides to kill me for another short chapter, just hold on. School is being a real pain and a lot of homework. Teachers just love us. But I'll try my best to update as soon as I can and maybe the next chapter can bew longer, but as I said, no promises.

NOW I think you've all heard about Vanessa' pictures. For my own point of view, I'm still supporting her. her privacy was violated and yeah that's all I have to say, but people should just be quiet about them, we know she took the pictures. There's nothing wrong with the naked human body and loving your own body. Oh well.

Just want to thank everyone who reviewed the alst chapter. If I don't reply to your review, I am sorry, but I'm trying to update all five I think stories, for everyone:)

Hope you enjoyed!
