Chapter 23
"Brie Casey is on the phone" says Troy
"I'm going out" says Gabriella on the verge of tears
"Casey she'll call you back what because she's like a sister to that's why I love her what ok thanks I gotta go" says Troy hanging up and pulling Gabriella into his arms.
"Brie it's gunna be ok" says Troy
"My granddad has just died Troy how is it going to be ok?" asks Gabriella
"Well it's not going to the be the same but I'm going to there for you every step
of the way I don't care about Casey and your Granma" says Troy
"Thanks Troy" says Gabriella
"No problem Brie now how about we get some Ben and Jerry's chocolate ice cream and get ready for bed and watch a movie in bed" says Troy
"Yeah that sounds good" says Gabriella
"You go get ready for bed and pick the movie I'll grab the ice cream" says Troy
Gabriella goes and gets ready for bed and picks a her favourite movie The Notebook.
Troy goes into the bedroom with 2 spoons and a tub of ice cream to find Gabriella curled up in a ball on the bed sobbing the realization of her granddad's death obviously only just sinking in.
He puts the carton and spoons down on the bedside table and sits down on the bed, Gabriella feeling the weight of Troy getting onto the bed crawls across to him and breaks down into his arms.
"I'm here for you Brie I'm here for you" says Troy
"I love you" says Gabriella
"I love you too" says Troy
"Ice cream?" asks Gabriella
"Yeah I've got it. The notebook I'm guessing?" asks Troy
Gabriella nods as a fresh tear slides down her face. Troy wipes it away with the pad of his thumb and reaches for the ice cream with one hand and then when Gabriella is holding that starts the DVD.
A while later when they're about half way through the DVD and Noah's dad dies Gabriella breaks down but insists she is fine.
Troy just holds her and rocks her gently as they continue to watch the DVD.
Just as the DVD finishes Troy realizes that Gabriella is asleep he gently prises the ice cream out of her hand with one hand while holding her with the other. He then pushes the cover aside with one hand and places her down and covers her as he then starts to tidy up, wash up and lock up for the night. He gets ready for bed which consists of him taking of his top and trousers. He turns the TV off and then gets into bed next to Gabriella wrapping his arms around her and is about to drift of to sleep when the phone rings.
"Hello" mutters Troy groggily
"Hey bro" says Casey cheerily
"Let me guess" whispers Troy "You're in a club having fun" whispers Troy
"Yeah why are you whispering" shouts Casey into the phone
"Because-"
"Troy who you talking to?" asks Gabriella half asleep
"Casey go back to sleep Gabs" says Troy
"I want to speak to Gabriella" says Casey
"You've just woke her up speak to her in the morning" says Troy
"No she needs to knows this it's like the talk of the night and it'll be old news in the morning" says Casey
"Casey I highly doubt that Gabriella will want gossip of home at midnight when she has just been woken up" says Troy
"Gossip give" says Gabriella
Troy looks at her with a look are you serious.
"Troy" whines Gabriella with her puppy dog face
"Fine" mutters Troy handing over the phone
"What the goss?" asks Gabriella?
"One I'm back with Mark Two You know super swot Cherry she's pregnant apparently Tyler Stanson and is about 3 months along and keeping the baby full parents support even though it goes against everything her mum and dad where bought up to believe and everything Cherry was bought up to believe" says Casey
"Do you know how or why it happened cuz Tyler never mixed with Cherry they were like total opposites" says Gabriella
"Together since sophomore year" says Casey
"Get out" says Gabriella
"Nope completely true" says Casey
"Anyway gotta go if look could kill and get through the phone you'd be dead on Troy's face so bye" says Gabriella
"Why does my brother love you?" asks Casey
"Didn't he tell you that when you phoned this morning?" asks Gabriella
"Yeah but I want your side of the story and do you still have that crush on him?" asks Casey
"Where like brother and sister Casey that's um why he loves me in a brotherly way and no I don't" says Gabriella
"What's with the um I may be tipsy but I heard the um what's the um is there something I should know?" asks Casey
"Um no" says Gabriella
"There's the um yay my best friend is shagging my brother how nice" says Casey
"I'M NOT SHAGGING HIM WE'RE JUST FRIENDS" shouts Gabriella
"Way to bust an ear drum Gabs and shouting total denial" says Casey
"I'm not though you know I'm not like and that and I promise we're just friends" says Gabriella
"BFFL and sister promise" says Casey
"BFFL and sister promise that's a big promise Casey and promise is a big word Casey" says Gabriella
"I know and I know you'd never break the promise I mean we made the promise almost a year ago and I know you'd never break it even if I gave you permission" says Casey
"Um yeah sure of course anyway listen Casey I'm tired and really want to go to sleep" says Gabriella
"Your going out with my brother aren't you" says Casey
"Casey I said I want to go to sleep and I'm not going out with your brother we just had the convo that he is like a brother to me that would be eww" says Gabriella
"Ok I believe you but if I find out you've double crossed there is one hell of a ass kicking coming your way" says Casey
"Ok night" says Gabriella and hangs up
"She thinks we're going out?" asks Troy
"Yeah but I think I might of put her off but if she finds out that we are together there is one hell of an ass kicking coming my way" says Gabriella
"Why can't our love be so simple instead of so like um" trails off Troy
"Like Romeo and Juliet's" supplies Gabriella
"Yeah" says Troy
"Ugg I'm never going to sleep now" says Gabriella
Troy pulls her into his arms and starts gently singing to her.
There's no one in town I know
You gave us some place to go
I never said thank you for that
'thought I might get one more chance
What would you think of me now?
So lucky, so strong, so proud
I never said thank you for that
Now I'll never have a chance
May angels lead you in
Hear you me my friends
On sleepless roads, the sleepless go
May angels lead you in
So what would you think of me now?
So lucky, so strong, so proud
I never said thank you for that
Now I'll never have a chance
May angels lead you in
Hear you me my friends
On sleepless roads the sleepless go
May angels lead you in
(May angels lead you in)
May angels lead you in
(May angels lead you in)
May angels lead you in
And if you were with me tonight
I'd sing to you just one more time
A song for a heart so big
God wouldn't let it live
May angels lead you in
Hear you me my friends
On sleepless roads the sleepless go
May angels lead you in
May angels lead you in
Hear you me my friends
On sleepless roads the sleepless go
May angels lead you in
Troy looks down at his girlfriend and then closes his eyes and drifts of to sleep.
