Chapter 18
You've got mail…
I woke up this morning on the couch. Troy must not have been home yet…I missed him.
I got up off the couch and went to the kitchen rubbing my neck. Then I got that nauseated feeling again. What is wrong with me!? I didn't puke this time but I felt like I was about to.
I looked on my list of wedding things…today I had to call the venue and make a day to go there and make the set up. Then I had to go through everything and divide it by the guest tables, and where they're supposed to go. Then I looked on my other list. Today I had to go to the store, go to the boutique, talk to the lead man that makes the perfume and also pick the new bottle out, and then I have to set up and appointment for the photographer for that endorsement. I was also waiting for the Fed-ex…
I made some toast with peanut butter and jelly and took a cup off coffee to Lettie. She was still sleeping so I put the coffee on the coffee warmer and put the toast next to it and walked out. When I walked back downstairs there was a knock on the door.
It was about 10 in the morning…
"Are you…Gabriella Montez" the man said.
"Yea" I said. He handed me the big computer thing I had to sign and he handed me the big box Michael sent me.
I decided that I would do my other errands before I look at it. Sure I want to see it but I want my full attention onto to it.
**
"So did you have fun?" I asked troy over the phone.
"Yea…but I missed you."
"Awww…when you gonna be home?" I asked. I was in the car on my way home from doing everything.
"At 5" he said. It's 4 now so I have to wait a whole hour!
"Ok well Michael sent me information on Daniela so I'll be looking at that"
"Who's Michael?" he asked
"Lana's brother, he's a Florida detective officer…thing…" I said. He laughed.
"Oh so he got you a lot of information?"
"I guess so I mean it's in a big box!"
"Oh wow…well I'll be home soon. Love you" he said.
"Love you too" and we hung up.
I parked the car in the garage.
When I walked in I first went up to our room and changed and then I went to check on Lettie. I opened the door slowly and she wasn't awake. I saw the plate and cup empty so I took them down with me. Then I let the dogs outside.
I sat down at the table…I couldn't do it. I thought it was going to be easy…I thought I wanted to hear about my sister. But I can't do it. Lettie came down seeing me stare at the box.
"what's that?" she asked.
"I talked to a detective who got me information about Daniela…" I said.
"In that box could tell us where she is?" she said.
"Yup" with a pop on the 'p'
She sat down next to me.
"Well what do we do?" she asked.
"We should open it…but I can't"
She got in the same position as me…chin in hands and elbows on the table looking at the box.
My phone rang. "Hello?" I said.
"Gabs…" john said.
"Uh oh…" I said.
"Look Troy's in the hospital" he said. My heart sank down to my butt in those words.
"WH…wha…what?" I finally got out. I felt like I couldn't breathe.
"He was walking to go get a car from the lot…and another one came in and hit him…" he said.
"I'll…be right there" I said.
I hung up the phone. "Lettie Troy's in the hospital he got hit by a car" I said grabbing my purse.
"I want to come with you"
"Are you sure?"
"Yea of course come on" she said. She was still in sweats and a tank top and so was I…we each grabbed a hoody from the rack and jumped in the car.
I sped to the hospital.
"Gabi slow down it won't do any good if we're in the hospital too!" lettie said.
"Lettie shush!" I said.
We finally got to the hospital.
"Where's troy Bolton!" I said. It was the same lady that was here when I came for lettie.
"Oh hey it's Gabi again!" she said.
"WHERE'S MY FIANCE!" I yelled.
"Gabi chill. We're looking for troy Bolton he was hit by a car"
"Oh they just came in" she said.
"And that would be…" I said.
"Just go through those doors and talk to that lady" she said and smiled. I ran through the doors and I saw john and Chad.
"Guys whe…where is he!" I said.
"Gabi I want you to calm down…they're examining him now ok" john said. I looked over and it was a clear window. I saw him my troy laying there all bloody and in that blue cloth.
I let out a cry.
"Cal…calls Lucy…" I breathed out.
"We already did. Gabi you have to stay calm." John said.
"I can't be calm john! He's my fiancé!" I said.
"Um excuse me…I need his close family to fill out his paperwork"
I walked up. "Who are you?" she asked.
"I'm his fiancé" I said. She nodded and gave me a sympathetic look and handed me the clipboard. My hands were shaking and I kept look at troy.
"Gabi that can wait" Chad said.
I looked over at him and broke down. He came over and hugged me.
What if I lose him! Then what do I do.
I sat there crying until I heard Lucy call me. "Gabriella!" she said. I looked up.
She hugged me. "Where is he?" she asked. I pointed to the window and she let out a cry and ran to the window.
I cried some more but now I was in Lettie's shoulder.
"Shhh Gabi…it'll be ok" she said.
It's been 6 hours and no word about troy. Now all of my family and Troy's family are here plus Taylor, Sharpay, Zeke, Jason, Ryan, and Kelsi.
"Um we need to speak to Troy's close family" the doctor said. I walked up to the doctor.
"Who are you?" he asked.
"She's his fiancée" jack said.
"Oh well…troy has a lot of broken bones…and has some bad scars…he's in critical condition…we're going to keep him here for a few days until he's stable"
"Can someone stay with him?"
"No I'm sorry, he's going to be in the ICU for now and there's no visitors"
"but im his fiancé you don't understand that guy in there is the love of my life I have to stay here!"
"Look ma'm I understand…but by law…I can't let you stay. But I know for a fact that he will be in a more permanent room by 7 in the morning…you can come then ok?"
"You will call me if he even flutters those eyes open!" I said.
"I will call you personally" he said. I gave him my cell and the house number.
"Gabi if you would like I can go over Mami's"
"No lettie I need you there…" I said.
"Ok" she said. She drove home.
"Do you need me to do anything?" she asked when we got in there.
"Lettie I know your beat…why don't you just go to bed…"
"Are you sure?" she asked.
"Yea…it's ok…" I said.
"Ok you know where I am" she said. I nodded. I didn't go to bed that night knowing my fiancé the man I love is in the hospital without me there. I should be there he needs me there. I then got sick again. I got really dizzy and decided to lay down on the couch. I ended up falling asleep and woke up when lettie came down.
"Oh…sorry Gabi…" she said. She was dressed in jeans and a t-shirt.
"Lettie…" I said.
"Yea?"
"Are you ok?"
"Yea I am going to clean up around here, and then I'm going to check out the boutique. You go and spend the day with troy"
"Lettie…"
"I'm fine! Really, Gabi go" she said. I looked at her and she looked back to normal.
I missed lettie. "Ok" I said and hugged her.
"Give him a hug for me"
I drove to the hospital and went to his new room.
He was awake and he smiled at me.
"Troy" I said walking to him. I collapsed in him softly.
"Brielle…I'm fine" he said. I was crying. I was so scared of losing him.
"I thought I was going to lose you" I said.
"Hey…" he said lifting my head.
"You're never ever going to lose me. Never, you don't have to be scared of that…I'm not leaving you" he said. I hugged him again.
"I'm so sorry Brielle" he said. I kept hugging and crying.
I finally got a hold of myself. "Why didn't they call me when you woke up" I said.
"Because I woke up at 3 in the morning and I didn't want you to rush here that late at night"
"Troy" I said
"Brielle you're here now…I'm ok"
"Have you eaten?"
"They should be bringing the breakfast tray in a little bit" he said. I nodded. I held his hand. I was so happy to have him…here with me.
A few minutes later the lady came in with his food.
"You want some?" he asked. I shook my head and just watched him.
I can't imagine not having him.
"Hey Mr. Bolton…is this perfect fiancé you kept gushing about?" the lady said. I suspected she was his nurse.
"Yea...that's her" troy said. I smiled.
"Well if you don't mind…"
"Gabriella" I said.
"Well if you don't mind Gabriella coming outside so I speak with you" she said. I nodded.
"I'll be right back" I said kissing him gently on his head.
"I'll be here!" he said. I laughed.
"Gabriella…he's got some broken bones…he has a broken rib, and shoulder blade, he had to get 56 stitches in all…not all in one place. He has some in his head, and some in his arm. All the rest is probably just bruises and aches…but we can't let him go home yet. We need to do some other test to make sure there were no internal injuries. As of right now he won't need any surgery, but we will keep an eye on the shoulder blade. He got really lucky. And don't worry he should be able to stand at the end of the aisle on July 16th at 5 pm right when the sun sets" she said. I smiled; leave it to troy to talk about the wedding at a time like this.
"I haven't even thought about that. Are you sure he's ok"
"As of right now yes, I will no more in a few days after we take the tests" she said. I nodded.
"Ok thank you" I said.
"Here you can take a look at his file"
I took the clipboard from her and looked at it. "Put it at the end of his bed when your done" she said and I nodded.
I read over it and it all basically said what she told me. Then I looked at the date…May 23rd …..That can't be right…
I walked back in the room putting the clipboard where she told me to.
A few hours later Lucy and jack came in. I was still a little dazed to think that I might be pregnant. I should've had my period the week of my birthday!
"Um visiting hours end at 4" the lady said.
"Oh…ok…well we'll go then" Lucy said. Its 3:30 now…
"You guys can stay till 4" I said.
"No…we'll give you guys some time" she said. They've been here for a few hours.
"Ok bye mom bye dad" troy said.
"Bye son" jack said hugging him.
"Bye my baby" Lucy said kissing his face a lot. I laughed.
Then Lucy came to me. "Sweetie you and Lettie can come for dinner anytime if you need anything at all I want your little butt to call me got it!" Lucy said sternly.
"Yes ma'm" I said. She smiled.
"Ok bye honey" she said and gave me all the kisses she gave troy.
"Well I've got bad news…" I said. He looked scared.
"It looks like your gonna live…so that means you have to spend the rest of your life in the bubble I'm making around you!" I said. He laughed.
"That's the best news I had all day" he said. I kissed him.
"Are you ok babe…you look…pale and lost" he said.
"I'm fine…just a little tired. Look I'll be here tomorrow morning" I said.
He nodded. "I love you. Don't escape. And don't flirt with the nurses" I said.
"Never" he said kissing me back. I kissed his head and looked back at him before I left. He was finding something on the TV and he looked just fine and in no pain. I can't imagine losing him…and now I might be pregnant. Is me and troy ready? What about the wedding? I can't think about all of this…I need to just go home.
