*Gabriella POV*
O my god did he just apologize, I cant believe that he's standing there apologizing and wanting to be with us again. The baby is happy too she's kicking me like crazy. Now he's going to think I'm crazy for crying.
*No One's POV*
"Gabby why are you crying," he asked grabbing her hand.
"I'm sorry, I don't mean to cry…I'm just….Happy I guess."
"Does that mean you'll take me back?"
Gabriella nodded and smiled; after a speech like Troy's how could she not. He was so relived and happy to have Gabriella and the baby back. He leaned in and kissed her so passionately they both could feel sparks. They kissed for what seemed like forever, they had 5 months of kisses to make up for.
"Hey, isn't that what wounded you up here in the first place," Ms, Montez said walking into the hospital room. They pulled away and blushed.
"Hey mom."
Troy stood by Gabriella's bed rubbing her knuckles with his thumb.
"So I'm guessing the talk went well," Ms. Montez said.
They both grinned and nodded.
Together they all sat there and ate lunch and caught up on the past few months. It was like old times, laughing, joking, having fun. Lissy woke up a few minutes later.
"Untle Troy tan oo play wit me and I olly's," Lissy asked pulling on Troy's pant leg.
"Yeah sure."
They went over to the table and played with Lissy's princess dolls. Gabriella smiled as she watched Lissy and Troy play, only a real man would play with a 2 year old and her dolls. Something about him in that moment just made Gabriella feel really happy that he was back; he just made their family, he completed it.
Gabriella drew drawing with her finger on her stomach as she laid on the bed. Ms. Montez had already brought Gabriella a change of clothes for the nest day and took Lissy's land went home. Troy went out to the hallway to call his parents to tell them that he was staying at the hospital with Gabriella. While Gabriella sat in her room she imagined what her life was going to be now that Troy was back.
Troy walked back into the room a few minutes later. He didn't look too happy.
"So how'd it go," Gabriella asked scooting up in the bed.
"Not so well…I mean my mom was happy but my dad, well lets just say I never knew he knew those words."
"O I'm sorry," She said grabbing his hand.
"No it's okay, I don't need him anyway."
"You know what I was thinking, we should get our own apartment," Gabriella said.
"Really?"
"Yea, I have over
14,000 in the bank from work and I already have almost everything for
the baby, I think we can do it," She said.
"Are you sure, I mean I thought you
wanted to live with your mom?"
"Well I love my mom but I think
we need to be a little more independent and do things for ourselves,
show our parents we can handle it," She said.
She knew it would be a little hard but she kinda just wanted to stick it to Mr. Bolton. Troy didn't really know if it was a good idea, they are 16 and in school with kids, that might be really hard, but he did want to do it.
"Okay, lets do it….BUT lets wait until school's over," he said.
"Really, in a month we'll get a place," she asked excited.
"Yea….I have about 5,000, so we can use that too."
"Awesome," she said.
She was so happy, she thought he was going to say no.
"You really want to be independent huh," he said.
"I know that's weird but it's just something I've always wanted to prove to people, since they already think I'm irresponsible."
"No I get it, hopefully my dad will respect me more now," he said.
*Troy's POV*
Gabriella fell asleep a few minutes ago. It's 10:30 and I'm just watching her sleep. She's so cute when she sleeps, I just love to watch her chest rise and fall and her hair that lays peacefully on her face and resting on her shoulders. I'm happy to have her back in my life, I don't know what to do id she wouldn't have said yes.
While she slept I decided that I would go get a paper, and looked at the listings for apartments and higher paying jobs. I ended up finding one in the cafeteria. I grabbed one and got a soda then went back to Gabriella's room. I sat at the table and began circling the two and three bedroom apartments. I never would have thought that I would be 16 and already looking for apartments and sitting in a hospital room with my 5 month pregnant girlfriend. However, I would never go back to being a regular teenager.
*No ones POV*
All of a sudden everything was fine, or at least it seemed fine. Although they have a lot of hard times ahead of them. But none of it seemed to matter to either of them, all that mattered was that they were back together, ready to take on anything together.
