Chapter 9

With Troy:

"WE'RE GONNA BE WHAT!!!," Mr. Bolton yelled standing up out of his seat.

"I'm sorry dad, it was an accident, we were safe but Gabriella as sick that week so her birth control pills didnt work," he explained, "But i'm going to take full responsiblitly of my actions.

"What about basketbal," Mr. Bolton asked with a bright red angry face.

"I'll just have to figure out how to make it work in my new life."

"What about College?"
"I'll just go maybe not at the time before but i'll still go. Both me and Gabriella will still go," he explained. The whole time Mrs. Bolton sat there on the couch not knoing what to do or say.

"You dont know anything about raising a baby, youre still a kid yourself!!"

"I may not know everything but i can learn and Gabriells is a great mother," Troy said,

"How do you know Gabriella will be good at it?"

"Because she's already an awesome mom to Lissy, and i know she'll be great with this baby," He answered. Mr. Bolton didnt know that LIssy was Gabriella's and when Troy just told him he was extremly shocked. Though Mrs. Bolton knew even before Troy did.

"So she's the one who draged you into sex," Mr. Bolton said. Troy couldnt believe what his dad said about Gabriella, to Troy Gabriella is the best girl in the world; his mom even took second.

"If it was anyones fault it was mine, i was the one who pressured her into sex, she said that we didnt need to have sex to show each other we loved each other and i told her that everything was great and it was okay if we had sex," Troy explained, "So dont say she's the problem because i love hr and the baby and Lissy too."

Mr. Bolton still thought his son was stupid and that if it was with some other girl then they wouldnt be in this situation. Mrs. Bolton was dissapointed but she knew that Troy could do it, but their was bo changing Troy's dad's mind.

After a while Troy didnt want to argue with his dad so he went up to his room, but he could still hear his dad yelling. But this is just what Troy expected from his dad but he was surprised but his mom's calmness to the situation. But to him it was all worth it, being with Gabriella seemed to calm him, to bring him back down to reality and he loved that part of her. Though they did have their moments when they wanted to just run away together they just stayed. They just needed to be with each other no matter where they were.

In his room there's a picture of Troy and Gabriella laying on the canopy in Gabriella's backyard asleep in each other arms, Troy looked at it and remembered the simplier times. He wanted everyday of his life like that, waking up next to Gabriella everymoring and just see her smile that sweet smile she has. He grabbed his phone and laughed when he saw his wallpaper wich was a picture of Gabriella and Lissy with whipped cream on their noses. In that moment he realised that his new life with his firl was going to be perfect.

With Gabriella:

After she talked to her mom, all she wanted to do was lie down in her bed, and be vurnerable, almost child-like. In her room Lissy was still fast asleep, curled up in a ball on her side of the bed. There was many times Gabriella wished she was a normal 16 year old, but to her this is what normal is and it's what the rest of her life is going to be. Her arms dropped to her flat stomach and she remembered the time when Lissy was in her and moving around, the unspoken bond that she was going to have with another beautiful human being. Maybe everything was going to be okay, that she'll be abe to handle all the stress of a teen mother.

She crawled in bed next to Lissy and turned to her side and stared at her alarm clock that read 9:06 and wondered what was going on with Troy in the moment. What he was thinking and what hos parents said to him after he told them about the baby. Two seconds later her phone sang, 'Whatever will be,' by vanessa hudgens and she immediatley knew who was calling: David.

"Hello," she said.

"Hey Bire are you okay i just heard about you going to the hospital," he said sounding very concered.

"Yeah i collapsed at the mall and the doctor told me that it was because of the stress and the combitnation of being pregnant."

"Did you just say you're pregnant," he asked shocked.

"Yep, sadly."

"Wow, whatever you need me to do i'll help," he said.

"Thanks, so are you still comming to get LIssy tomorrow."
"Yeah i'll be there before school."

"Okay thanks."

After she hung up with him she fell straight to sleep and dreamed about her and troy's new future.

The next morning Lissy was still asleep when Gabriella puked her guts out. She remembered how bad it was and couldnt wait for it to be over. When she came back into her room to get dressed Lissy was sitting on the bed watching the disney channel. Gabriella got dressed then her and Lissy went down stairs and ate breakfast. When they got down stairs, she saw two big boxes at the end of the stairs and a note laying on top of one of the boxes:

Gabby,

Here are some of Lissy's old things, i hope we will be able to salvage some of these things. I had to go to woek early but i wanted to tell you that tonight the Bolton's are comming over around 7. Go through some of these things, and call me when your shift is over.

Mom

"Ut are ease mama," Lissy said pointing to the boxes.

"It's the things from when you were a baby like clothes and toys."

"Ut are a ore?"

"Um it's for aaa......It's a surprise," Gabriella really didnt want to have to explain where babies come from to her two year old, so she streched the truth a little, "Go finish your breakfast because daddy's going to be here soon."

"Yay," she said and skipped to the table.

While Lissy ate, Gabriella started to go throught the boxes, the first one was filled with LIssy's old clothes. Gabriella smiled when she saw LIssy's first onsie. Looking at all that stuff made her reminise the past two years. She couldnt believe that LIssy used to fit in all those clothes. Gabriella looked over at Lissy who was wating her breakfast and watching 'Handy Manny.' she looked so big, so grown up.

Her thoughts were interuptes by the front dorr opening, Gabriella turned her attention to the door and saw David walking into the house,

"Hey," Gabriella said standing up and giving him a hug.

"Hey....o my gosh is that Lissy's old stuff." he said with a big smile on his face.

"Oh yeah my mom brought them down, i'm going through them, maybe me and troy could use them again."

"Daddy!," Lissy said running up to him.

"Hey baby," he said picking her up.

"Are'd i oing oo ang out with Grandma?"

"Yep but only for a little while and then we can go anywhere you want just you and me," he said.

Gabriella loved watching David and LIssy together, it's so cute and they both really love wach other.

"Yay."

"Go finish you breakfast, so you can go," Gabriella said.

Lissy hopped out of David's arns and skipeped back to the table and began eating her food again.

"So how are you mommy," he asked rubbing her back.

"I'm okay, little tired."

Before David could respond there was a knock at the door.

"Come in," Gabriella yelled.

The door opened and Troy walked into the house.

"Hey."

"Hey, i thought you would want a ride to school," Troy said.

"Yea sure....um David this is Troy, and Troy this is David," Gabriella said.

"Hey man, congrats on the baby," David said.

"Thanks," Troy said coldly.

They stook there in the silence.

"Um so...uh...I may have some of LIssy's old things at my house too, would you like to go through them too," David said trying to relieve the silence/

"Yeah sure thanks."

Lissy came into the room with her back pack on her back all ready to go.

"Okay bye baby, i'll see you later okay, call me before you go to bed kay," Gabriella said getting down to Lissy's level.

"Otay i ill mamma," LIssy said then gave her mom a kiss.

"I promise i wont brake her," David joked then gave Gabriella a hug and a kiss on the cheek.

After David and LIssy left Troy had a really pissed off look on his face but he wouldnt tell her what was wrong.

"So i was thinking that we could use some of Lissy's old things for the new baby, you know to save money," Gabriella sadi while they were on their way to school.

"Fine," he said coldly.

"What's youre problem," she said nudgung his shoulder.

"Nothing."
"Seriously tell what's wrong," she said.

He sighed and then said, "How come you let him touch you."

"What are you talking about?"

"David he was all over you and you were fine with it," he said.

"What the hell, he gave me a hug big deal," she said.

"And he kissed you, i was there so dont deny it," now he was souding rediculous.

"On the cheek, it's not like we were sucking face."
"Do you love him," he asked.

"What? Where is this comming from?"
"Just answer the question," he said sternly.

"I dont love him like i love you."
"Love is love," he said.

"I love him like i love taylor, he's my friend, But i love you like i love LIssy, i cant live without you," she explained.

"Whatever."

Once Troy parked, Gabriella grabbed her backpack and got out of the car, not waiting for Troy to open her door. And she just walked towards the school, she really hated the way Troy was acting. She never seen this part of him before and it made her wonder what kind of guy he really was.
