Ok guys, thanks for the reviews. Here is the next chapter.

Chapter 13

As 3 days went by, Gabriella and Troy told Lucy what happened. It turns out that Gabriella was

raped twice. Once by Jack and the other by Greg. Gabriella is more scared of Greg and Emma

now and she knows they are mobsters and murderers. Troy and Gabriella sat outside by the pool,

in November, since it's really warm. It was the weekend, really warm and a new school year.

Mrs. Hard is their teacher again. Troy and his friends are in grade 4 and Gabriella is in grade 2.

Mrs. Hard teaches grade 4, but Gabriella is with them so she's protected by Mrs. Hard and Troy.

As they sat outside, Lucy watched them from the kitchen window as the phone rang.

"Hello?" Lucy asked as she picked up the phone.

"Hey Mrs. Bolton. It's Mrs. Hard" Mrs. Hard answered

"Hey Stephanie. Just call me Lucy. What can I do for you today?"

"Oh, I was just wondering if you can come with us for our camping trip. I'm sure Troy and Gabi told you"

"Yes they have, I would love to come. When is it?"

"We leave Friday next week, and come back on Monday. It's for the weekend"

"Ok, I'll come. Troy and Gabi will have to be in my tent though"

"That's no problem. I'll see you Monday, when you bring them in for school"

"Ok, bye"

"Bye" as Lucy hung up, she saw Troy and Gabriella laughing, so she walked out.

(As Lucy was on the phone)

"You're my best girlfriend" Troy told Gabriella with a smile.

"Girlfriend?" Gabriella asked confused

"A girl that's a friend. You're the best girl that is my friend"

"Oh" (back to when Lucy hears them laughing from the house) as they laughed, they saw Lucy smiling as she walked to them, "hey mommy"

"Hey sweetie" Lucy kissed Gabriella's forehead, then Troy's, "guess what?"|

"What?" Troy and Gabriella asked together

"I'm coming on the trip with you. It's from Friday to Monday. The whole weekend"

"YAY!" as they 2 kids hugged Lucy, Lucy hugged them back. After the hug, Lucy sat beside Troy and splashed him.

As Gabriella, Troy and Lucy ran into the house, soaked from the water fight, they got changed into their pjs and Lucy made supper.

As Sunday finally arrived, Gabriella and Troy hung out more and more. Troy found out, he likes to hang out with Gabriella more then his friends, and he went to Lucy to find out why.

"You are starting to like Gabi more then a friend. Like your cousin and his girlfriend" Lucy told him.

"Like Adam and Sarah?" Troy asked.

"Yes. When your older you will understand better"

"Ok, what do I do?"

"Just have fun, and hang out with her like you already are"

"Ok mom" as they hugged, Troy went back upstairs to his room, to play video games with Gabriella.

What did you think? I know it's not as good as my other chapters, but I want them to have some down time, before more drama comes. I'm aiming for this story to be 62 pages before I start the sequels. (plural) I know I said it would be one more or 2, but I decided it to be longer then that. I have ideas for the next ones, but I need your help for this one before Gabi gets kidnapped. Any ideas after the camping trip? And thanks to Bluebell140 for the camping trip idea. Please review guys
