He had fallen asleep after her and he was up before her so for her to wake up without him felt empty and scary. She got up and found her clothes and put it on then she went to the kitchen where he sat not knowing what to do. If he sat still he thought to mush about what could have happened during the night Nate was alone at the hospital. And if he did something else he felt like he wasn't caring enough about his brother. He felt caught at a dead end. But he knew once he got to the hospital and met his brother everything would be fine.
She sat down next to him at the table. Staying quiet, not really knowing how to act when he was upset like this. Something that was so unfamiliar for her. He was always happy and he knew what to say and how to act in every given situation and here he was, quiet, staring empty in front of him. He looked at her, his eyes were dull and dark bags under his eyes. Not like the Troy Bolton he was just two days ago.
"Do you need to go to school?" He asks quietly avoiding the real issue.
"Not if want me to stay…" She answers knowing her mother would call her in sick if Troy wanted her to be there because her mother had been a nurse and understood that Troy might need somebody else outside his family who was there for him. Nothing her father understood who only saw that Troy made her miss school.
"Thank you…" He mumbles kissing her forehead. She took his hand in hers and smiles at him softly.
"I'm always here for you Troy…" She replies. He rest his head against hers feeling exhausted. He barley slept any last night, his mind wouldn't let him. If he ever doubted that he would love this girl in a near future he was hundred percent sure she was holding his heart. And she didn't know it yet.
"I just wish you could meet my family under other and better circumstances…" He says quietly. "You want anything to eat by the way?" Trying to change the subject she notices. So even for just a second he didn't have to think about his brother being in the hospital. "What do you want?" He gets up from the chair searching the cabinets for her breakfast feeling panic in his body and his mind was just blank. He forced the tears inside his eyelids not wanting to be weak in front of Gabriella. But she sensed he was near a mental breakdown.
Gabriella got up as well standing behind him for a while as he close a cabinet. His back fell forward when his hands support him on the counter. She reminded her self to never ever be a physiologist… ever! She put her hand on his back rubbing softly. "Come on… Lets go to the hospital… I can get something to eat there." She says softly. He breathes heavily trying to collect him self. "Troy… Come here." He turned around and she hugged him tightly. His head rested against her shoulder when it started to get wet with tears that needed out.
Later they were at the hospital. Troy refusing to meet Gabriella's eye sense he didn't wanna talk about the incident were he cried on her shoulder. No he wasn't a fan of showing weakness and especially not in front of his girlfriend. Instead he stared into to the wall until the doctor was done at his brother.
"You can come in now…" The female doctor says gently and leaves the door open for them to go inside. He glances at her and then gets up from the plastic chair, Gabriella unsure if she should fallow or stay in the chair. She decides that she should stay, because he's been quiet and barley looked at her sense he cried at his apartment. Something she saw as a good thing that he trusted her enough to see him in that state but now he was quiet and avoided her at all cost.
He turned around before going into the room looking at her, wondering why she wasn't coming.
"Something wrong?" He said, the first thing he had said to her since they left his apartment he looked at her trying to read her but she was completely closed for the outer world… For him and that stung a bit.
"You tell me…" She replies some what annoyed. Feeling hurt of the rejection she was given.
"What are you talking about?" He is just isn't up for this! He is tiered and just wants to make sure his brother is okay and she throws this dirt at him.
"Nothing we can talk about it later…" She mumbles. Trying to make it comfortable in the hard plastic chair made it nearly possible to not think about the fact that Troy was staring at her from where he stood.
"No… We talk about it now!" He demands. "Everything on the table right now! About yesterday and why you are mad at me now… So what do you wanna start with?" He asks her. He walked over to her sitting down next to her.
"About you! Because ever sense we met you have been some type of super human that doesn't show any emotions other then happiness and perfection and when you actually do show that you are human and can feel things other then happiness and your stupid perfect smile isn't on you shut down completely and you don't speak to me or even look at me." She looks so desperate at him that makes him insecure and he barley knows what to say let alone breathe. He was not the person she believed he was.
"Gab… I am not more human then anyone else… I just don't like showing weakness or talking about how I really feel… And when you saw me…" He is quiet for a while debating with himself what word he should use. "In that state and I didn't know what to do… I want to be the strong one… Can you try to see it from my point of view?" He takes her hand in his and rest his head against her temple.
"You don't always have to be strong… Not with me… I mean I am not the best person to give advice but I can always listen." She turns her head slightly making their forehead rest against each other.
"Thank you…" He looks at her for a moment before moving on. "And what about yesterday? Why were you crying?" He asks he also tries to look her in the eyes but they were focused on the floor. "Talk to me…" He begs.
"You don't talk to me…" He looks at her with this look begging her to understand. Then she sighs. "My cousin said that I was boring and uptight and it was impossible for a girl like me to keep a guy like you without sleeping with you…" She gets out. "And because as long as I can remember every guy have wanted her more then me and I can see why I can really so I don't blame you if you want to choose her instead of me…" Her eyes is still focused on the floor to embarrassed to look him in the eyes.
"Hey… I would never ever push you to do anything you don't want to do… Okay? You just got to trust me and if you feel uncomfortable when I touch you or whatever it is just say stop and I'll stop…" He promised her kiss her nose gently. "I want you and I want to be with you because if I didn't I would be with someone else…" He says softly to her.
They stay there for a minute before they get up from the chairs and in to the room of Nathan Bolton. The young mans head was bandage and his face was covered in stitches and bruises while he looked at something at the TV.
"Look who dragged his as out of the office…" Nate teases when he sees the couple. "And I hope that fine girl is for me so I have motivation to get better sooner. Because if it is way better then a card!" He says sounding kind of high of something Troy, guessed was the morphine speaking more then his little brother. Gabriella is blushing rather wildly at the younger Bolton's words.
"Actually she is mine Nate…" He smiles proudly to Gabriella before turning back to his brother again. "This is Gabriella Montez… Gab this is my brother Nate.." Gabriella smiles shyly against him and takes a step forward, wishing she could have worn something else then her sweats.
"Hi…" She says quietly.
"So you are the one who calms my brother down…" Nate says to the brunette. "And you know if I have been in better shape you would have dumped his sorry as and gotten with me instead because I am more fun then he is!" He says and starts laughing that turns into a cough.
"Are you okay Nate?" Troy asks, as the caring big brother he could be when he wanted to.
"Yeah the drugs are wearing out though…" He mumbles with a grin on his face. "You should try it… Its better then alcohol." He says laughing gently. Gabriella smiles at the interaction between the two brothers. The brothers joked and talked like nothing happened yesterday. And she would give anything to see that calm and content smile on Troy's face.
It was Friday and Gabriella is forced to have a girls night with Sharpay something she didn't mind really, but Troy on the other hand had whined about not being able to sleep properly when she was away, probably because she had spent every night at his place this week and four days before that so yes they had become pretty comfortable to share bed and both of them enjoyed it. A lot. But today she was going to share bed with Blondie and that was pretty good to.
"So why is it emergency girls night Shar? I thought you and Chad were happy. Or is it something else?" She asks when they sit on the bed in their pajamas and their faces covered in green goo and hair wrapped in plastic hats for best effect of their impacts. It was traditions for the two friends every once in a while.
"I missed my best friend…" She says. "I mean I am happy that you got Troy I really I am but I kinda miss you and me just hanging out." Sharpay confess. And Gabriella can't get mad either knowing that she has right. She have been spending most of her time with Troy.
"I'm sorry… I just… I don't know I guess I was so caught up with having a boyfriend that I took you for granted.." Gabriella says to her best friend. "I never meant to hurt you or Chad, but to my defense you have been pretty busy with Chad!" Then the girls burst out laughing. Why, neither of them really knew why. But they who needed a real reason to laugh had a bad life.
"So how far have you and Troy-boy gone into your relationship… And I don't wanna hear the crap about feelings. I want the physical department." Shapay sounded eager about knowing about her best friend growing up and about Troy Bolton's body in close up.
Gabriella started biting her lips and her cheeks turned red just thinking about the things they did even if it was pretty innocent so far something that suited Gabriella so far but lets face it, she is a teenager and teenagers a full of hormones and she would want to take things further with Troy because she felt comfortable with him and she also knew that she could say no, no matter how far they had gone. And that makes a girl feel secure with her boyfriend.
"Eh…" She giggles nervously. "We have showered once and we make out without shirts… That's it I guess." She says with burning cheeks to her best friend, glad it was covered.
"Showering?" She asks approvingly of this activity. "Did he ask you or did you ask?" Shar asks exited loving the news about the relationship.
"Neither… He was in the shower and walked in after, and honestly? I wouldn't mind doing it again…" She was sure that the facial mask was gonna melt form her face any second now mainly because she was blushing so hard and her face was burning up from the confessions she told her friend. She never thought she would tell anyone this. It was something that was going to stay between her and Troy.
"Are you serious! Oh My god! My best friend is growing up!" Sharpay seemed to be more excited then Gabriella and all she could do was laugh.
It was a bit too quiet for him. It was a bit to cold for him. It was just to empty for him. He missed Gabriella and wanted her in his arms again. But he had to sleep alone tonight. It wasn't a thought that was appealing for him; he had kind of grown addicted to having her beside him when he woke up. Just having her there made a huge difference for him. But he could hardly force her to choose between him and her best friend sense forever (her words not his, he thought she should choose him).
He sapped trough the channels for what felt like the hundredth time that night. He had already eaten and was bored out of his mind. He thought about calling Kelsi but she was probably trying to get Dani to sleep, he felt kinda pathetic that he, a 22 year old was bored and alone on Friday night with out even a hint of a party or something he just sat on his couch doing nothing. He could might as well go to sleep or pack sense he was supposed to be in New York on Wednesday for a charity. There was something else that was supposed to happen on Wednesday to… He couldn't put his finger on it though.
He left the TV to find something to eat. Not that he was hungry… He just wanted something to do. He looked at the clock. 9.30. He might as well go to bed he had hardly slept any this week plus he might will be able to convince Gabriella to stay at his place again tomorrow. Maybe while he was home, coming week as well. She didn't seem to mind the stay this week. But it was mostly because he could hardly breathe without her this week so she stayed with him during the night sense it calmed him down.
But now that Nate was healthy and would be out in a week he was calm about his brother again. Now he just missed her. It was almost scary how one person could affect your entire life, and he thought he was untouchable no one could ever get under his skin this fast that she had gotten under his skin.
Sighing when he found nothing good to eat he decide to be a boring person and go to bed and at least try to sleep.
The girl giggles loudly with out even a thought that there was others in the house and the former distance between them was now closed with giant steps. They had talked about everything and nothing tonight. Just like two best friends should. They talked about their boyfriends how good they were and the next minute they talked about their flaws but in a loving way and of course the most important stuff (according to Sharpay) their packages!
Gabriella being innocent blushed deeply when she tried to explain Troy's size, she was unfamiliar with this and didn't know what was normal and big and small. And she didn't wanna know about Chad's package.
"Do you think you will have sex with him?" Sharpay asks her.
"Yeah I think I will and he said he won't push me and I trust him on that because he is too good to do something like that to me or anyone for that matter." She answers feeling good to know she had such good boyfriend.
"He sounds perfect for you…" Sharpay giggles.
"He is… And he says he have grown addicted to share bed with me… And I kinda like the safe feeling he gives me when he holds me before going to sleep and that he is still holding me when I wake up." Gabriella was smiling goofy and bit her lower lip gently.
"You miss him now don't you?" Sharpay teases.
"I kinda do… Sorry but you don't provide the same comfort." Gabriella giggles quietly. "And my mother is taking me to the hospital on Tuesday to get me on the pill…" Also confess.
"Why?" Sharpay who had a hard time believing that innocent Gabriella would eat birth control.
"Mom wants me to be protected incase we have sex in the heat of the moment…" To tiered to actually blush.
"It's a smart move if you consider how fast you shared a shower with him." Gabriella stares at Shar.
"I think we should go to sleep now!" Gabriella says turning around so her back was facing Sharpay who was just giggling. They both needed their sleep and Gabriella didn't wanna hear her stupid comment anymore. She checks her phone before actually going to sleep.
Can't sleep without you and I miss you.
She smiles before answering knowing he cared more then she could fully understand in this moment. Biting her lip gently before sending the message.
I miss you to
