Troy was extremely nervous. Nervous, but excited. It was now 6:45 and his date with Gabriella is in 15 minutes. Troy's mother, aunt, and uncle went to some opera and the others were already long gone, demanding full information about the date when they get back. Troy already had everything planned out for their date and made sure it was ready and would be perfect.
Troy took over three showers and washed his hair down to the core. After his shower, he went to his room and dressed in the clothes he got from their shopping trip- a dark brown leather jacket with black collar, another black-t-shirt, dark jeans, and black high-tops sneakers. (A/N: The outfit he wore on TRL) He left his shaggy hair the same, but added a little gel in it. And sprayed some cologne.
He stood in front of the guestroom's door, holding a small box of Godiva chocolates he got for Gabriella, and knocked lightly on the door.
Gabriella opened the door and greeted him with a smile. Troy stood still for a minute, her spell casting upon him. Gabriella looked too damn stunning in (A/N: her TRL outfit.) an grey Erik Hart short strapless dress, a black boyfriend blazer with white cuffs, black tights, and black toe-open pumps, and added a cool black long vintage necklace that went with the outfit. Her nearly-black locks curly and bouncy. She wore the right amount of make-up and was wearing a too-good-smelling perfume that he found irresistible, just like her.
"Whoa," He breathed, feeling like he was about to faint from seeing her beauty. "You look beautiful." He handed her the box of chocolates.
Gabriella took the box and put it in her purse. "Thanks, you look pretty good yourself, too." She said.
Troy took her hand and escorted her downstairs to the lobby and then outside to the limo that was waiting for them. The limo driver drove them to a new French restaurant in downtown Manhattan.
Troy opened the door for Gabriella and escorted her to their table that was in a dimmed area, with a candle light. To his displeasure, their waiter was clearly checking Gabriella out and was flirting with her.
"What can I get you?" He said, clearly asking only Gabriella.
Gabriella turned to Troy and said "Troy?"
The waiter, unwillingly, turned to him.
"I think we'll first with the appetizers. We'll have the bread and the grilled chicken wings." Troy said, knowing its Gabriella's favorite.
The waiter wrote it down on his pad, and quickly turned to Gabriella, flashing a flirty smile. "And what do you want to drink?" He asked, as if Troy was invisible and Gabriella was the only one there.
Troy scowled, feeling a wave of jealously crashing over him.
Gabriella turned to Troy and said "Coke?"
He nodded, pleased that Gabriella wasn't paying to their flirty waiter.
"2 cokes." She ordered.
The waiter wrote it down, winked at Gabriella, and left.
Troy scowled after him, but smiled at Gabriella, who gently stroke his hand and smiled at him. They were silent for a minute, just smiling at each other, gazing deeply into each other's eyes, holding hands. It wasn't awkward for them at all. They just gazed into each other's eyes, loving the moment too much. In Troy's head, he was already sketching another beautiful angel sketch of Gabriella. In Gabriella's mind, she was already working on lyrics on a new song which she'll call Right here, Right now.
Unfortunately for them, their waiter came back and ruined the moment. He placed their appetizers and drinks on their table, and quickly turned to Gabriella, with another flirty smile. "Can I get you anything?" He asked.
"How about a plate of pasta for us to share?" Troy suggested, smiling at Gabriella.
She smiled back. She definitely liked that idea. It was really romantic.
"We'll have that." She told the waiter, not taking her eyes off Troy.
The waiter frowned, dissatisfied that he wasn't getting her attention, but wrote down their order. "Anything else?" He asked.
"Yeah, another bottle of champagne." Troy said, not taking his gazed off Gabriella.
The waiter rolled his eyes and left again.
Gabriella took a bread roll from the bread basket, buttered it, and bit into it. She moaned in delight.
"So, how's the bread?" Troy asked.
"Really good. You should try some." She said.
"Okay." He said, opening his mouth.
Gabriella figured out what he was doing and thought it was cute. She ripped a piece of her bread and fed him it. Troy grinned as he chewed it. The bread really did taste good. He opened his mouth again, wanting her to feed him more.
Gabriella giggled. She couldn't resist and fed him another. They kept on feeding each other until the waiter came back with their pasta and champagne and left again.
Troy poured them each a glass of champagne and handed her a one. They clinked glasses and took a gulp. They fed each other pasta and just talked. They took another bite and saw that they were sharing the same noodle. Troy and Gabriella looked at each other and smiled. This reminded them to much of Lady& The Tramp. They slurped the noodle until they were only 3 inches away from each other.
In Troy's eyes, he asked her if he should. Gabriella nodded, yes. Troy bit the noodle, leaned in toward her, and kissed Gabriella, passionately. Gabriella grinned as she cupped his face and kissed him back passionately. They both felt those same flaming sparks, the burning passion, and other feelings they couldn't describe, but loved it a lot. They felt as if there was no one else in the restaurant, besides just the two of them. They could have been kissing the whole night if their waiter hadn't interrupted them.
"What?" Troy asked, unwillingly pulling back from Gabriella, pissed.
"Can I get you anything else?" The waiter said.
"Yes, another bottle of champagne to go and the check." Troy told him.
He brought them the champagne wrapped in a bag and the check.
Troy paid the check, took the bottle and Gabriella's hand, and left the restaurant.
"Troy, where's the limo?" Gabriella asked, looking around for it.
"Oh, we're not taking the limo anymore." Troy said, grinning. Troy paid the check, took the bottle and Gabriella's hand, and left the restaurant
"Oh, so are we going to walk?" Gabriella asked.
"No," Troy said, and then pointed to a direction "We're going to be taking that."
Gabriella turned to the direction and gasped. It was a horse carriage.
Troy helped her onto it and the horseman winked at them and rode the carriage. As he stopped them if front of Central Park, Troy paid him, grabbed the picnic basket, that he hidden under his seat, and helped Gabriella off.
Troy took out a blind-fold from the basket and blind-folded her.
"What are you doing?" She asked, giggling.
"You'll see." He said, and then took her hand. He led her to a certain place in the park and then stopped. Troy set up the stuff. He turned back to Gabriella and said "You ready?"
"Yes." She said, nodding her head.
Troy un-blind her and showed her the surprise. Gabriella silently gasped. The surprise was a picnic dessert, with candle light, rose petals, with double chocolate brownie cheesecake for dessert and the champagne in the meadow under the stars.
"Wow, this is amazing!" Gabriella said, as they sat down.
"Glad you like it," Troy said, pouring them each a glass of champagne, grinning. "So do you remember this place?"
Gabriella looked around the place, a bit puzzled, until a smile grew on her face, remembering it. "Yeah, I do," She said, turning back to Troy. "This is where we first met."
"I'm glad you remember." Troy said.
Gabriella grinned at him as she cut a piece of the cheesecake, topped it with whipped cream, and fed it to him. "How could I forget? This is where I met a very interesting guy." She said.
Troy licked the whipped cream off his lips and grinned back at her. "And this is the place where I met a unique girl," He said "Would you mind if I told you a story?"
"No, not at all." She said.
"Okay," Troy said a bit nervous and cleared his throat "Once upon a time there was this little eight year old boy named …Roy. Roy visited New York City for the day. His two cousins and also friends gave him a tour of the city. One of his cousins...um…Shannon took him to Central Park to meet her best friend…Isabella. The moment Roy saw Isabella, he was stun by her. Isabella was only eight, and yet she was beyond cute and adorable. The moment he met her, he feel a spark that traveled down his spine. The moment Roy saw her, he knew he fallen for her. She was all he could ever think about. She was the most beautiful and perfect girl in the world. Roy wanted her and fallen in love with her. 10 years later, he came back to live in New York with his mom. When he met Isabella again, his love for her grew. But he wonders what they are now? And what this means? If it's love or just some crush? And this song helps him think…"
He grabbed his guitar from behind a tree, and cleared his throat again. He looked deeply into Gabriella's eyes, played a familiar song on his guitar, and began to sing David Aruchleta Crush.
oooh,oh oh wo wo wo
I hung up the phone tonight,
something happened for the first time, deep inside
It was a rush, what a rush
Cause the possibility that you would ever
Feel the same way about me
It's just too much, just too much
Why do I keep running from the truth
All I ever think about is you
You got me hypnotized, so mesmerized, and I just got to know
Do you ever think, when you're all alone
All that we could be, Where this thing could go
Am I crazy or falling in love
Is it real or just another crush
Do you catch a breath, when I look at you
Are you holding back, like the way I do
Cause I'm trying, trying to walk away
But I know this crush ain't goin away,away away ayaya goin away away away ayaya
Has it ever crossed your mind when we were hanging
Spending time girl, are we just friends
Is there more, is there more
See it's a chance we've gotta take
Cause I believe we can make this into
Something that will last, last forever, forever
Do you ever think, when you're all alone
All that we could be, Where this thing could go
Am I crazy or falling in love
Is it real or just another crush
Do you catch a breath, when I look at you
Are you holding back, like the way I do
Cause I'm trying, trying to walk away
But I know this crush ain't goin away,away away ayaya goin away away away ayaya
Why do I keep running from the truth
All I ever think about is you
You got me hypnotized, so mesmerized
And I just got to know
Do you ever think, when you're all alone
All that we could be, Where this thing could go
Am I crazy or falling in love
Is it real or just another crush
Do you catch a breath, when I look at you
Are you holding back, like the way I do
Cause I'm trying, trying to walk away
But I know this crush ain't goin away, goin away
When he reached end of the song, Gabriella was crying tears of happiness.
"Question, is Roy and Isabella really you and me? Was that story about us?" She asked.
Troy nodded, nervously. "So what you do think?" He asked.
Gabriella didn't answer. She instead leaned in toward him and crashed her lips against him, kissing him passionately, and grinning. She loves kissing Troy so much and wished she could kiss him forever, feeling the passionate heat between them.
Surprised but happy, Troy kissed her back, feeling the burning heat, thinking how absolutely, amazingly incredible it felt kissing the girl who he fallen for and stole his heart. He wrapped his arms around her and pulled her closer to him. And then laid Gabriella flat on the blanket, his lips still attached like glue to hers, and got on top of her, kissing her soft lips with passion.
Troy licked Gabriella's sweet lips and then bit her bottom lip. Gabriella opened her mouth and gasped, which gave him access to her tongue. They tongue-wrestling with each other, loving this moment too much.
Gabriella wanted to do this for as long as Troy has, and grinned more, that their wish came true. Needing time to breath for a moment, she pulled back. Troy looked at her, confused, wondering why she stopped.
Gabriella took a few breaths and said, as if she was reading his mind, "Believe me, I didn't want to stop, but I needed to breath for a moment. Now where were we?"
"Oh, I believe we were here." Troy said, leaning in and kissing her passionately again.
Gabriella wrapped his arms around his neck and kissed him back, grinning. They kept kissing and kissing.
"I could kiss you forever." She murmured, brushing her lips against him.
Then they finally pulled back, with their faces flush, but were smiling at each other.
Troy opened his mouth and was about to say something until he suddenly felt one followed by many drops on his head. He looked up at the sky and saw hat it began to pour rain.
"Oh shit!" He yelled.
Gabriella just laughed and said "Oh my god!"
To be continued….
