Love's spelled D.I.S.A.S.T.E.R 1x30
Breakfast went by like any other. Troy and Gabriella would just sit in silence and hear their parents' conversation. Jane just kept giving them the look of 'do it already!' but Troy or Gabriella would just shake their head at her and continue eating their scrambled eggs.
Tom didn't show any signs of life. He would usually just joke around with Jane or participate in the adults' conversations, but now… he was very deep in thoughts. What was he thinking about? Well he was thinking about Troy's and Gabriella's reaction in the moment when Lucille opened the door; Gabriella just ran to Troy and wrapped her arms tightly around his waist. It was normal for him to see it, since he spent a whole week in their apartment watching them; but what he didn't know is why they got to say 'hi' to each other like a couple, when their parents still don't know about them.
He thought of Gabriella's silly and happy smile of earlier… and noticed that Troy was wearing the same smile. He frowned. What did they do to make them be so cheerful and not care if they said 'hi' to each other in an unusual way? His thoughts immediately focused the lingerie set that he found in Gabriella's room. Had they…? No, impossible! Gabriella wouldn't even think about doing that with him and his mom in the house, right?
But… he wasn't home until 1:20 am and his mother arrived home around mid-night. Had Sharpay lied to him? What if his baby sister had used that obscene piece of clothing the night before to satisfy Troy? He trembled at that idea.
"Well, you two have been pretty quiet" Lucille said to Troy and Gabriella "Is something wrong?"
Tom snapped out from his thoughts and looked up at Troy and Gabriella; would they finally say it?
Gabriella and Troy looked at each other. Only they knew what those looks meant; it's time. Troy sighed and held Gabby's hand underneath the table looking for some kind of support; Gabriella squeezed it lightly.
"Nothing's wrong…" Troy began.
"…But?" both Maria and Lucille questioned.
Troy looked at Gabriella again and then at their parents "We have something important to tell you…"
Jack sighed "Who did you knock up, Troy?"
Jane giggled and looked at Tom, hoping he would laugh. She frowned when he didn't; he was just staring at Troy and Gabriella.
Troy sighed "No one, dad!" he rolled his eyes.
"Then what is so big, that you're making a huge deal out of it?"
"We're not making-"he sighed "Could you just listen up?" he asked a little annoyed.
Jack raised his hands in defense "Alright…"
Troy sighed again and scratched the back of his neck with his free hand. "Me and Gabriella…"
"Yes?" Lucille encouraged him to go on. She had no clue what was he going to say; she may have had the slightest idea… but she never even thought about those possibilities since their kids swore that they didn't like each other that way.
"We're… sort of… you know…" he chuckled nervously. Gabriella rolled her eyes, hoping he would just make it quick, which he didn't.
She sighed "We're dating…" she concluded Troy's nervous sentence.
There was complete silence on the table. Lucille looked at her husband and then at Maria, the three of them were completely shocked; it was a dream they had ever since Troy and Gabriella met in High School, but it was a complete shocker that it was finally happening; it was a complete shocker to hear it.
Tom and Jane looked at each other and then at their parents' ridiculous expressions. They thought that they would be jumping up and down like neurotic people and their moms squealing like a dog's toy.
"Didn't I say it loud enough?" Gabriella whispered at Troy.
Troy shook his head and whispered back "I think you said it high enough…"
"Then why aren't they jumping like weirdoes?" she whispered.
Troy rolled his eyes "Give them a moment…"
And Troy was right, after a few moments… Maria was the first one who reacted.
"Well… uhmm… wow... I mean… WOW!" she blinked twice and then smiled at her daughter and then at Troy.
"Wait!" Lucille held her hand up to stop Maria from doing anything else "You're not joking?"
Gabriella frowned "Oh hell no! Why would we joke about something like this?" she asked her mother in law.
"Did you knock her up?" Jack asked smirking.
"Jack!" Lucille slapped him on his chest.
Troy rolled his dad "No dad, she's not pregnant…"
"Boo, you fagg…" he said only to be smacked by his wife once again "Ow!"
Lucille rolled her eyes "Don't listen to your dad, you know how he is" she smiled "We're so happy for you guys!"
"Thanks Lucille" Gabriella smiled at her and then at Troy.
"Thanks mom…" he took his glass of orange juice and took a sip.
Maria clapped her hands "Oh, oh, oh! Lucy! What about the little park in front of the church, for their wedding?"
Lucille squealed "Yes! Totally! I've got some great ideas of where we can go dress hunting!"
Troy spit out the juice getting Jane and Tom all wet "Mom!"
"TROY!" Jane and Tom complained as they wiped off themselves with the napkins.
"Sorry…" he turned to the mothers "Don't you think it's a little bit early to be thinking about weddings?"
Gabriella giggled "What? You don't want to marry me? If that's so, maybe I could call that Jason guy who was flirting with me…" she smirked at him teasingly and he glared at her.
"Ha-ha. You're so funny" he sighed "What I mean is that… we just started dating…"
"Yeah, weddings are too early, but when it comes to fucking..." Tom mumbled to himself.
"HA! I knew he got laid!" Jane exclaimed and everyone in the table turned to her. Troy and Gabriella glared at her.
"Who got laid?" Jack raised his eyebrows.
"Uhmm…" Jane looked at Troy and then at Tom; they were the only guys in that room who could actually have sexual intercourse. "Uhh…. LOOK A BEAR!" she pointed at the window behind Troy and Gabriella and ran out of the dinning room.
"Huh…" Troy raised his eyebrows "Look at that! She went mental…" he smirked and took another sip from his juice.
**That afternoon**
Tom looked from his window how Troy and Gabriella got inside his car and drove off for their 3rd month anniversary date; a couple of days later would be his with Sharpay and he still didn't have any idea of how to tell his mom about it.
He sighed as he flopped on his bed and put his hand behind his head. Even if he wanted to cut Troy's dick off, he couldn't. He was almost like a brother to him and he trusted him with his life; even if he wanted to be mad and demand him about taking his little sister's virginity away… he couldn't; after all, Troy was the one who protected her from Shane when he wasn't able to be there and do it himself.
All he wanted was for his sister to have a happy and healthy life, and apparently Troy was giving her that and more; he simply couldn't hurt him… he owed him too much. He just wished that he could still be Gabriella's hero instead of Troy.
"Guess things changed now…" Tom sighed.
Troy and Gabriella stepped out of the car in front of the mall; they didn't want to make such a big deal for their month anniversary, so they just decided to hang out at the mall and get some smoothies.
"So? What are we doing first?" Gabriella asked as she intertwined her fingers with Troy's as they walked.
Troy pursed his lip as he thought "Well… I did promise to buy myself a Speedo for you" he smirked down at his girlfriend only to see her shrink her nose and giggle.
She looked up at him "Let's go then…" she smiled and pulled him to the first store she found on her way.
Gabriella took out a pair of tight Speedos and placed it in front of Troy's waist. She cocked her head to a side and Troy blushed lightly as he saw other guys and girls in the store looking at them with grossed out expressions on their faces.
"Uhmm… Gabby? Do you have to do that where everyone's watching?" Troy asked her with slightly flushed cheeks.
Gabriella rolled her eyes "Stop being such a baby, it's not like I'm the only one doing that" she nodded with her head at a couple a few of feet away from them.
Troy looked at them and sighed as he looked back down at his girlfriend picking between a black Speedo and a blue one.
She sighed "If we want to match it with mine, then the black one…" she groaned "But I really do like the blue one…"
Troy rolled his eyes and took the Speedos from her hands "Then let's buy both…"
Gabriella smiled excitedly "You need to wear one tonight!" she giggled at her blushing boyfriend.
"Okay fine! I will if you stop yelling it out loud!" he whispered yelled at her and then went to pay for the Speedos.
As soon as they payed for the Speedos, Troy and Gabriella walked to the food court to get something to drink, they weren't very hungry yet. Gabriella wrapped her arms around Troy's neck and began walking backwards; Troy chuckled at her as he wrapped his arms around her waist.
"Why are you so cheerful?" he raised his eyebrows at her as he picked her up a little so she could place her feet over his.
She shrugged "I'm just really happy that we don't have to hide it from out parents anymore" she smiled "Now I can kiss you in public without worrying if anyone familiar to us sees us…"
Troy nodded "Then kiss me in public…" he smirked and leaned down.
Gabriella smiled and placed her lips over his and kissed him tenderly. And once again they were in their own little bubble floating around not noticing a blonde girl, an African American girl and the sudden companion of an Afro haired guy staring at them.
Sharpay gasped surprised to see them in the mall and by the fact that neither Chad nor Taylor knew about them. She turned her head to her friends and saw that they had recognized Troy and Gabriella and that their eyes were as wide as plates.
"Oh…crap…" Sharpay said and placed her right hand over her face.
"You knew about this?" Taylor turned to her pink dressed friend.
She shrugged "I live in the apartment in front of them" she smiled nervously.
Chad smirked "Well I'm not letting this opportunity pass…" he rubbed his hands together and walked over Troy and Gabriella.
"No Chad!" Sharpay groaned "They're going to kill me!"
Taylor laughed "Let's go!" she pulled from Sharpay's arm and they walked towards the happy couple.
"If they kill me…" Sharpay began.
"They won't kill you!" Taylor rolled her eyes and kept on following Chad.
"Ugh! You guys make me puke" Troy and Gabriella suddenly heard a voice say behind them.
Immediately recognizing it, they pulled back and turned around to face a smirking Chad.
Troy smiled "Chad! Hey!"
"Now I see what I haven't heard from you" he kept the smirk on his face.
The boys made their little handshake and then Chad went to hug Gabriella. Sharpay still wanted to set herself lose and run away before they found out that she was with Taylor and Chad.
"Hi Chadster…" she smiled as they pulled back.
Chad smirked "So, how come you guys started sleeping with each other?"
"Chad!" Taylor scolded him as she arrived, still dragging Sharpay with her.
Troy laughed as he saw Sharpay's 'sorry' face "Thanks to the girl, Taylor's dragging around…"
"Really? How come?" Taylor asked as she hugged him and then Gabriella.
"It's actually a long story…" Gabriella blushed as she held Troy's hand in hers.
Taylor rolled her eyes "Well, I want to hear it! I haven't heard from you in ages and I need to know everything that has happened in your life…"
"Uhmm… Tay?" Shar said "They're in their 3rd month anniversary date…"
"Just half an hour" Taylor groaned "You guys can catch up while we, girls, chat for a while…"
"Tay…" Sharpay began but got interrupted by Troy.
He shook his head "Actually it's a good idea…"
"It is?" The blonde raised an eyebrow.
Gabriella giggled "Yeah. We actually didn't want to make our date too much of a big deal…"
"Plus we didn't have anything planed until tonight, right?" Troy winked at Gabriella and she blushed lightly.
Taylor squealed "THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!" she clapped her hands "We'll meet you in the food court in 2 hours, alright?"
Troy chuckled "Sure, go have fun girls…"
As soon as Taylor dragged Gabriella and Sharpay away with her, Chad and Troy began walking around the plaza with nothing much to say.
"So? Tell me how exactly did the ice queen get you guys together?" Chad asked as he got his hands inside his pockets.
Troy smiled "It was pretty simple. She knew we liked each other but wouldn't admit it… so all she did was making me text her that I liked Gabriella and she left her cell phone in my house for Gabriella to see…" he shrugged and chuckled.
Chad laughed "And what did she do?"
Troy smirked at his friend "she slapped me and got really mad at me for not telling her…" then he sighed "I tried convincing her that I wasn't in love with her and that it was all a joke… she only got more angry and then ran out of the apartment…"
Chad smiled "And being the dumbass you are, you went after her, didn't you?" he raised his eyebrows at him and smirked.
"Yeah… "He sighed "I barely could see or hear anything… it was raining really heavy…"
Chad burst out laughing "And you kissed under the rain, like a freaking romantic movie?" he asked, mocking him.
Troy blushed a little "Shut up. It was a 'Now or Never' situation. Plus the clime is really weird. Not my fault it rained that day!"
"Awe" Chad put a hand on his heart "That was so romantic" he laughed.
"Fuck off!" Troy rolled his eyes. At the moment he did, the guys were passing in front of a jewelry store; that was when an specific piece of jewelry caught Troy's eye.
"Come…" Troy commanded as he entered the store. His best friend followed right behind him with a confused expression on his face.
