1 week later

For the past 2 days, Gabi has been acting weird. Mood swing, weird cravings, feeling sick but not throwing up, and she's been very pale. Troy is starting to worry about her a lot.

It was a saturday morning. Troy had spent the night. Troy woke up first.

Opens his eyes and sees that Gabby is sleeping peacefully.

"Morning Beautiful" He said and kissed her forehead.

Her eyes fluttered open.

"Good morn... oh no!" She covered her mouth, got up and ran into the bathroom

with Troy right behind her. She reached the toilet and threw up. Troy held her hair up.

"You alright baby?" He asked softly.

"No.. Im gunna puke aga..." She threw up.

Ms. Montez, Maria, ran into the bathroom. "Oh, sweetie. Are you alright?"

She shook her head no and threw up again.

Troy put his hand on her forehead. "She feels a littlewarm, but not much. Maria, could you go get the thermometer?"

"Of course" She left the bathroom.

"Alright, I think im done." Gabby said back against the wall. Troy got up and got her some water and mouth wash. After she was done with the water and mouth wash, Troy picked Gabby up, walked to the bed, sat down and leaned against the head board. He laid Gabby back on him and stroked her hair.

Ms. Montez came back. "Here. Put it under your tongue." Gabby did so.

"99.9. Not bad, but still a fever. How did you feel when you got up. Tell me everything you felt this morning Gabby." Ms Montez said.

"Well, I got up, and suddenly felt a wave of nauseacome over me. I also had a slight head ache. When I got up to run to the bathroom, I got very dizzy and

lost my balance but was still able to run to the bathroom." Gabby said weakly.



"Umm. Alright. Troy, Gabby, I want to ask you guys some questions and I want, no, I need you to be very honest. Okay?" Ms. Montez said emphasizing the word

need.

"Okay." Gabby and Troy said nervously.

"Have you two had sex?" Ms. Montez asked.

"Yes." They both said quietly.

"Did you use protection?" Ms. Montez asked.

"Ye..." Gabby started but then stopped. "Every time except once..."

"And when was that?" Ms. Montez said.

"About a week ago. On Friday." Troy said honestly.

"Mom, you don't think im.. pregnant do you?" Gabriella said slowly, scared, nervous, and said the last word quietly.

"I don't know honey. But im going to run to the pharmacy and pick up a pregnancy test. I will be back in about 10 minutes. Until then, stay in bed, and drink some orange juice or water. Alright?" Ms. Montez said.

"Okay and Mama, thanks for not being mad." Gabby said with a weak smile.

"Your welcome sweetie. I know how in love you and Troy are so it might not be so bad." Ms. Montez said smiling. Then she left.

"Im so sorry Troy." Gabby said as a tear slid down her cheek.

He wiped her tear with his thumb and asked,

"Baby, why are you sorry? There is nothing to be sorry about."

"I might have just ruined your future though. If i am pregnant, then we are going to have to miss a few weeks of school to take care of the baby. Maybe no college. And basket..." Gabby said now crying.

Troy cut her off. "Shhh. Brie, its not your fault. And I don't care about that stuff. I only care about you, and this baby if you are pregnant. We can make it through this. Our love is strong. Your my one and only and I love you. We can make it through anything and I will be right beside you during this whole thing and I will help you raise this kid. And this may not be a

bad thing you know." He said with a smile. Then kissed her.

"Why do you always know exactly what to say?" she said giggling.

"I love you too Troy. Your my one and only.And thank you."

"Your welcome. Now, lets put a movie on until your mom gets back alright? What do you want to watch. Your choice." He said smiling.

"Umm... we should watch... The Pursuit of Happyness." She said excitedly.

They watched the movie. About 15 minutes went by and Ms. Montez came home.

"Alright Gabby. Use all 3. We will wait 5 minutes, and it will tell us. Okay?" Ms. Montez said while giving it to her.

"Okay mama. And again, thank you." She said while walking into the bathroom.

5 minutes went by.

"Okay. Ready?" Ms. Montez asked?

Hmmmmm... What will happen. Is she pregnant? What

will happen if she is? Will their love survive? How

will their friends and the rest at East High take it?

And especially, how will the Boltons take it?
