Disclaimer: I own nothing!
A.N- I have only up to chapter 14 written but I'm hoping to write more tomorrow I wanted to put up a few chapters to make sure you guys had something to read just in case it takes me a while.
Gabriella whimpered and woke up screaming, "NO STOP!" She sat up pushing the hands, that she thought were touching her, away. When she opened her eyes she was met with darkness. She heard a noise and turned her head quickly to see a figure running into the room. "Troy?" "I'm here Brie, I needed a drink." He walked over to her quickly and sat beside her pulling her into his arms. "It's okay just please hold me." Troy nodded and held onto her laying his head on hers, "I'd be happy to Brie." A little while later Gabriella fell back asleep. Troy laid back with Gabriella in his arms. He fell back asleep only to be awoken by Gabriella about an hour and a half later. This went on most of the night, and Troy just held her and whispered sweet nothings into her ear. At 8:00 Lucille and Jack came downstairs to find Troy and Gabriella sleeping and holding onto each other. The two adults decided to let the teens sleep since they knew that the night before wasn't very good. They had heard Gabriella off and on all night but knew that Troy would want to take care of her himself, so they left them alone. Because they knew if Troy needed them he would let them know. Lucille and Jack went to the kitchen and while Jack read the newspaper Lucille made breakfast. Gabriella woke up about 30 minutes later and looked up at a still sleeping Troy next to her. She rubbed his cheek and bit her lip, "I'm in love with you, why can't I just tell you?" She felt Troy stir under her touch and she removed her hand. "Hey Brie." "Hi Wildcat." "How are you feeling?" "I'm okay." "That's good it'll take time, Brie, hey I smell breakfast so why don't we eat and then go hang out together." Gabriella nodded, "Sounds great." Troy smiled and stood up offering his hands to Gabriella. She took them and he pulled her up and wrapped his arm around her shoulders. They walked into the kitchen, "Good morning guys. Breakfast should be done soon. How are you two feeling?" Mrs. Bolton hugged both teens, "I'm good, ma." "I'm okay Lucy, thanks for asking." "You're welcome deary." Gabriella and Troy sat down at the table and Gabriella leaned over to whisper in Troy's ear, "Thank you for everything you are doing, its really sweet of you. You're the best." Troy smiled and whispered back, "I always want to be here for you no matter what happens, ever, I will be here." Gabriella kissed his cheek and Lucille brought over breakfast and sat down. Everyone dug in and through out breakfast they just talked and enjoyed each others company.
Hope you enjoyed!
