SORRY FOR SPELLING - Check out my blog! (Address below)
It had been a some-what difficult day all around really. If i wasn't getting told off in lessons for not paying attetnion, i was having one one of my bestfriends confessing his un-dieing love for me or i was worrying about what the situation was with Troy. It was all just soo confusing.
Riley hadn't spoken to me since lunch, i had tried to get his attention numerous times, only for them to fail miserably. Whenever he saw me walking down the hallway, he walked the other way - When i smiled or mouthed anything at him, he pretended he hadn't seen me and look away, and whenever i wrote him a note and past it to him, he left it on his desk, un-opened, like it was just a piece of scrap paper. I'd be lying if i say it didn't hurt. I had no idea he liked me that way, if i did i would have been a bit more sensitive towards him...
Turns out though, Taylor knew. When i had told her she said it had been obvious for years and was surprised that i hadn't figured it out by now.
Now though, for some strange reason i found myself standing outside the door of Troys apartement afterschool, wondering wether to knock or not (My dad thought i was at Taylors). I was just too nervous and scared that he would slam the door in my face. My hand went to the door, preparing to knock before i sprang it back, still un-decided. What if Sharpay or Chad answered? I would look like a right idiot. I sighed, staring at the door as if the answers to all my problems would just leap out of it and fix everything.
I should be so lucky.
I reached my hand out again to knock, jumping when i heard a voice come from behind me "I wouldn't bother knocking, no ones home"
I felt my pulse begin to race at that voice - Troy's. I spun around, coming face to face with him, he wasn't alone though. He was with Chad and Sharpay. "Hi" I squeaked.
"Hi" Troy said
"Ok, Enough hi's" Sharpay sniped, pushing past me, her shoulder colliding with mine as she went to the door, putting her key in and unlocking it. Chad walked past me too, giving me a small smile, before following Sharpay in. Leaving me and Troy.
"Whats up?" Troy asked.
"Can we go inside and talk?"
"I'm not sure, are you going to run out again?" Troy asked, a small trace of anger in his voice.
I looked away ashamed. "Im sorry" I said truthfully "Please, lets go talk?"
Troy seemed to think before nodding briefly and walking past me, into the apartement. I followed noticing Sharpay sitting on the sofa talking to Chad and watching Television. When she noticed me she gave me the worst, most evil glare i had ever seen. I ignored her and followed Troy down the hall to his bedroom.
I closed the door behind us as we entered - Troy heading straight away to go sit on his bed. I however, stayed standing. "So talk? Why did you run out on me saturday?"
"You told me you loved me" I said timidly.
"And i meant it. But whats the big deal? I didn't expect you to say it back if thats what you were scared about." Troy said
"No, it wasn't that" I began
"Then what was it?"
I sighed, running a hand through my hair while trying to gain the strength to continue "I didn't think i deserved it"
"You didn't think you deserved love?" Troy asked confusedly as i began to pace back and forth.
"Yeah that and...I especially didn't think i deserved your love." I admitted.
I didn't really register Troy standing up and walking over to me, but he must have because all of the sudden i felt his two familiar arms wrapping around me and my head getting buried into his chest, breathing in his familiar scent.
"Of course you deserve love" He said "What makes you think you don't?"
How long does he have? "Lots of things.."
"Like?"
"I don't really want to go into it to be honest Troy. All i know is that when you told me you loved me. It scared me, that someone cared enough to tell me that"
Troy pulled away from me, holding me at arms length so he could look into my eyes. "Its ok to be scared. Brie, when i told you that i loved you, i was scared. Petrified even. I have never told any girl that i was in love with them" Troy confided "And it scares me that i could fall for you so quickly."
I nodded in understanding "Its just hard for me to accept it Troy. That someone loves me" ...Or that 2 people love me.
"I do love you Brie, i'm not gunna take that back. I mean it when i say it now and i meant it Saturday. Its ok if you don't say it back"
Suddenly, i found myself reaching up and pulling Troy down, kissing him fiercely. It was strong, passionate and fast. It was like we had been away from each other for weeks and weeks. One of Troys hand crept up my top, massaging one side of my stomach, while the other tilted my head back so he could attack my kneck. I moaned softly as he kissed my spot, sucking on it lightly as to not cause any marks. My hands were all over his body, up his top, one stroking his back and one stroking his ripped abs.
Troys hands fell from my stomach and neck as he kissed me again. I gasped as his hands went to my backside and lifted me up, my legs instantly wrapping around his torso as our tonuges became involved in the languid kissing. Troy walked us over to the bed, laying me down and kind of straddling my waist, although keeping his full weight off of me. I sighed blissfully as Troy began to peel my clothes off of me, much like he had done before now and i peeled his off. He smiled at me, running a hand through his hair before saying "Your so beautiful" and then our lips connected, as our bodies melted together as one...
Troy pulled the bed sheet over our naked bodies after our intense love-making session, smiles gracing both of our faces. He rested back onto the bed, turning to face me as i was laying on my side. He pulled me closer, his hand resting on my naked waist. "I love you" He said, his hand gripped slightly harder on my waist, in case i just got up and ran, but this time, i didn't move. I layed there, staring into his sincere, lust filled eyes. I could tell he was telling the truth and he meant it. The way he looked at me was if i was the most special person in the whole world - Like i was the only one who mattered. It was then that i realised, 100 percent, without a doubt, that i was in love with Troy Bolton.
I gulped nervously as Troys hand that had been on my waist, slid gracefully up my tanned, glowing skin towards my face, the pad of his thumb, tracing sensually over my lips before moving up my face to my hair, brushing it from my eyes.
"I love you too" I said. Troy stopped his actions, looking at me curiously.
"You do?" He asked hopefully.
I nodded, smiling gently "I Love you"
"And your not just saying that?"
I shook my head before repeating once again "I love you Troy"
Troy smiled, leaning forward and kissing me with his dry, pillowy lips. "Your make me so happy Brie"
"You make me happy to. More then you could ever know" I said before my face faltered as i remembered my bestfriend from lunch time, telling me he loved me.
"Whats the matter?"
"Nothing" I replied
"Your lying, your face shifted Gabriella and you have this stoney expression. Whats the matter?"
"It doesn't matter Troy. All that matters is me and you" I told him
"But, if whatever it is, is bothering you. I want you to be able to share it with me" Troy said.
I sighed.
"Come on Brie, your always very guarded. Let me in just this once?" Troy asked.
"..Ok" I said, taking a deep breath "Its Riley"
"Right...Riley is one of your bestfriends yeah?"
"Yeah" I nodded "Well, he hasn't been talking to me for quite awhile and well today when i went to speak to him about it...He told me something" I said, sitting up and wrapping my self in one of the bedsheets to cover myself.
Troy shifted so he could sit up a bit more, covering his modesty in the process "Ok, so what did he tell you?"
"Your going to think its stupid and i don't know, im scared you will find him as a threat or something"
"It can't be that bad...why would i find him as a threat? I hardly know him. Now, what is it?"
"He told me...He told me he loved me and had been in love with me for quite sometime now."
Much like i had expected, Troys features changed instantly, from a concerned, worried one to a annoyed, wierded out one.
I moved so i could sit on my knees. "But don't worry, i only see him as a friend - A best friend. Nothing more Troy and he understands that" I said, feeling slightly panicked that Troy would leap up and go hunt Riley down.
"Your not mad are you?" I asked a quiet Troy.
Slowly he shook his head, his fatures softening at the concern on my face. He reached forward and pulled me and the bed sheet i still had wrapped securely around me onto his lap, holding me tight as if to say 'Your Mine'. "Of course im a bit upset. But give me some credit Gabriella, no guy wants to find out another guy is in love with his girlfriend"
"I guess...But i do only see him as a friend Troy. Nothing more, i promise. Trust me"
"Don't worry i believe you and I trust you. Its this Riley guy i'm beginning to not trust." Troy admitted.
"Look, don't worry Troy. I love you remember"
"Yeah and I love you too."
"Good" I smiled, resting my head on his chest as we basked in the love we had for each other.
I stood up and pulled my top on over onto my body as i finished getting dressed later on that night, ready to leave Troys, much to my dismay. I smiled at Troy who lay on his bed in a plain white t-shirt and some light blue basketball shorts while waiting for me to finish getting ready. I pulled on one pump, nearly falling over as i heard Troy say "I'm going away this weekend"
WHAT?!
"What? Where?" I asked, forgetting the fact i still had one more shoe to put on.
"To my parents house, they are having this huge family get together. Grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins...etc" Troy said off handedly, like it really wasn't a big deal.
"So im not going to get to see you all weekend?" I pouted, causing Troy to laugh and sit up.
"Well no, unless you come with me" He asked, a glint in his eyes.
"You want me to come meet your family? ALL of your family?" I asked astounded.
"Yeah it will be fun. Anyway, my mom...she has been kind of begging me to introduce my girlfriend to her. I haven't really had many and well...I'm leaving Friday night if you want to come? We will only be staying there 2 nights" Troy asked
Meet his family? Oh fuck, thats really huge. Like, SUPER GIGANTICALLY HUGE!! What if they found it really easy to spot i was only 16? I really wanted to go but how could i explain this to my dad? What lies did i have left to use?
"I'll ask my dad and get back to you?" I said, recovering and pulling on my last shoe.
"Thats ok. But i would really like you to come. I get to show you off then" Troy winked, standing up. "Anyway, let's go"
"Go? Where are you going?" I asked confusedly.
"Im driving you home. I'm not going to let you walk am i?" Troy asked rhetorically, leaving his room, indicating for me to follow.
"Let me get this right Gabriella, you have told your dad your staying with me for the weekend, when in reality, your going to Troys parents house in West Alberqueqe to meet his family and stay for 2 nights?" Taylor said all in one go as we spoke over the phone, an hour after Troy had dropped me off in his car around the corner to my house.
"Yeah, I know this is a HUGE deal but i really want to go. It will give me a chance to get away from my dad and be free for awhile. Besides, its only like a hour and half drive."
"But meeting his parents and the rest of his family Gabriella...What if they figure out..." I knew what she was talking about.
"Well, i will just have to convince them otherwise right?" I interupted. "But anyway, i was calling to ask if it was ok if i told my dad i was sleeping around yours for the weekend?"
"Do i really have a choice?" Taylor giggled "But you know me hun, of corse i will."
"Thankyou. I was hoping you would say that because i have already told him and he said it was fine."
"Ok" Taylor laughed "I spoke to Riley earlier"
"Oh?" I tensed up at his name. "And?"
"He is pretty broken up. But i think he wants to be your friend Gabs"
"I want to be his too. I have been trying to speak to him all day since lunch"
"I know, but i think i talked him around a bit. He is mostly embaressed Gabs, he admitted he loved you. Its not just something you can laugh off"
I sighed "I know, i'll talk to him tomorrow, i just want to be friends with him again. Bestfriends..." I trailed off.
"Yeah, but at least you made up with Troy. I can't believe you told him you loved him. Thats so great"
I smiled as i heard my name being called from downstairs. "Yeah" I said, standing up and leaving my room, still holding my phone to my ear. "Did you find David?"
"Oh yeah, turns out he had a good reason for bailing on our date" Taylor said
"And that was?" I asked, reaching the bottom of the stairs.
"His sister was giving birth" Taylor said, her embaressemt of the anger she had, had earlier evident in her voice. I giggled, entering the living room.
I burst out laughing at the scene in front of me, my dad sitting on the sofa, trying to braid Elisas hair and doing a very very very bad job. "Its not funny" Elisa said in a huff, trying to patt down her messed up hair.
"What are you laughing at?" Came Taylors voice through the phone.
"My dad, trying to braid Lisas hair, I got to go. I better help fix it" I giggled
"Alright, see you at school." Taylor said before hanging up.
I closed my phone before walking over and sitting on the sofa next to my father as he stood up to move to a chair, so to be out of the way while i tried to do some damage control.
It had taken me 20 minutes but luckily every knot was succesfully out of Elisas lovely brown hair. I was just getting ready to braid it when my cell began to ring. I answered it quickly, not looking at the caller ID.
"Hello?" I said into the phone, using my chin to keep in place near my ear and on my shoulder, while i used both hands to do Elisas hair
"Hey babe" Came Troys voice. I knew straight away it wouldn't be a good idea to continue this conversation in the same room as my dad and sister but i couldn't stand up and stop doing Elisas hair otherwise world war III would have broken out.
"Hey" I smiled softly, ignoring my fathers curious looks from the otherside of the room.
"So, have you spoken to your dad?" I heard heavy breathing and then a door shutting - He had probably just walked into his room.
"Yeah. All set." I said, leaving my sentences to a minimum, not wanting to cause any suspision from my dad.
"Excellent!. But i miss you now, i wish you didn't have to go and could of stayed the night" Troy mused "What are doing right now?"
"Im braiding my little sisters hair" I told him.
Troy chuckled "How are you holding the phone?"
"Im not sure, but im getting a cramp" I giggled.
"Oh my bad, i'll see you probably friday ok. Come to my apartement around 7 ok?" Troy asked.
"Sure. Bye" I said, sturggling to maneuvre my hands so i could hang up. Once i had done it, my father turned to me.
"Who was that?"
"Riley" I told him as that was the first person that came to mind.
"You made up with him then?" He asked
"Seems like it" I lied, turning my attention to Elisas hair once again.
Once it was done, Elisa looked at it in the mirror. "Wow its great. Thankyou Gabi!"
"Its ok" I said as she hugged me briefly before running away to her room.
"Thankyou" My dad said.
"For what?" I wondered.
"For doing your sisters hair" He replied
I nodded "Im going to bed, night"
"Night Bella" He said.
I smiled slightly before walking out of the living room and to my bedroom.
In 4 days i would be meeting Troys parents and family. 4 days.
God help me - How the hell was i meant to pull this off?
