Chapter 5
Disclaimer: I own nothing!
Gabriella had been distant for all of the 30 minutes that the group had been walking around the mall. Everyone noticed but didn't say anything. Troy stayed close to her worried that something was very wrong. At one point when Troy looked down at her, she was staring hard at Nick. Troy put his hand on her back and leaned down so that he could whisper in her ear, "Brie, are you okay?" "Y-yeah I'm fine just thinking I guess." Troy chuckled, "Well I can see that Brie, but what are you thinking about?" Gabriella shook her head, "Not here Troy I'll tell you later." Troy sighed but said okay not wanting to make her upset. When everyone decided it was time to go home, Nick came up to Gabriella, "Hey, Gabriella, can I talk to you for a second?" She hesitated but slowly nodded. When they stepped away from the group Nick took a deep breath, "Gabriella, I was wondering if you wanted to hang out this Friday?" Gabriella bit her lip, "I shouldn't blame him for what happened to daddy," she thought. She looked up at Nick, "Okay sure Nick." Nick smiled, "Awesome how's Friday at 8, I'll pick you up?" She nodded and they walked back to the group.
Later that night Troy was hanging out at Gabriella's house watching movies. Troy paused the movie, "Hey Brie, you never told me what you were thinking earlier." Gabriella groaned, "Troy let's just watch the movie." "Brie I'm worried about you, you shouldn't keep things inside especially not so soon after….you know." Gabriella looked at Troy annoyed and raised her voice, "No I don't know Troy why don't you just say it. Why can't you just say that he's dead, huh? I'm not going to go all depressed just because you say it, okay? But I want my privacy I deserve privacy just like everyone else!" Troy looked at her shocked before snapping out of it, "Fine, Gabriella your dad is dead you shouldn't keep things inside especially since he just died, is that better for you!" Troy stood up and left, feeling a little hurt and confused. He thought they told each other everything; maybe they weren't as close as he thought.
A.N- I'm sorry that my chapters are so short I sit here writing them down, but then when I write them on the computer they aren't even a page most of the time. Anyways I hope whoever is reading out there that you are enjoying it. Please review I'll take anything to know that people are reading. So for the next chapter to come up I want at least 3 people to comment even if its just saying I'm reading it. That would be awesome. Loves!
Bye.
