AN: Here you go guys another new chapter :) Enjoy! (So sorry it's late!)
Chapter 3
He would accompany her tomorrow.
'Oh the joys' Troy thought to himself.
"What have you got yourself into Bolton. What have you done." He said to himself before he heard his name being shouted from down the hall by one of the maids.
'Beep!Beep!Beep!' sounded out through Troy's new room. Rolling over in his single bed, feeling as though he had not long closed his eyes to fall asleep, he grumbled when he saw the red numbers flashing on the small digital alarm clock.
"Five fucking o'clock!" Troy said letting his head fall back onto the pillows. Being a Navy Seal Troy was used to getting very little sleep and waking up at the strangest hours, but after his accident he had fallen into the happy of sleeping in to the normal hour of half past eight, sometimes nine o'clock.
Rubbing his eyes, Troy slowly pulled the thin dovey off of his well built body, and dragged himself out of his warm comfy bed.
Thirty minutes later found Troy washed and dressed in a black suit, and standing in the middle of the Montez kitchen. Omelet was on the menu for breakfast this morning. That was one thing about Carlos Montez, he took great care of all his employees.
"There you go Troy. Fresh omelet." Marco handed Troy a rather warm white plate, with an omelet placed in the middle. He thanked both Frank and Marco and made his way over to where all the other staff sat and ate, will chatting away to each other.
"Troy pull up a chair." James, another security officer said, as Troy approached the rather large group. Everyone gave Troy a smile or a good morning. They had all got to know Troy over dinner last night and he seemed to fit right in.
"So Troy are you ready for today?" Dakota asked Troy, in very strong Polish accent.
"Not sure yet. I shall let you know tonight if I am ready for today." Troy said and the rest of the group gave out a chuckle.
"Miss Gabriella is not that bad really." Henry said. All the staff looked at him.
"Just stubborn." Leon said to Troy and the rest of the staff agreed.
"So I have my work cut out for me then?" Troy asked as he finished his omelet.
"Pretty much. I was her bodyguard for a day, when I first started last year." James told Troy.
"Really what happened?" Troy asked eager to find out what it was like.
"Let's just say good luck mate." James said putting his head down.
"Brilliant." Troy said sarcastically
"Right lads finish up. Meeting in five." Leon said handing his plate back to Marco and leaving the kitchen. All of home security including Troy finished up and headed to the security room. As the rest of the staff began to get ready for the day which lay ahead.
'Beep!Beep!Beep!' echoed out into the pitch black. And a rather loud groan was heard from within it.
"Go the fuck away." Came the tired voice of Gabriella Montez She reached her hand out of the covers in search of her alarm clock. Will searching for her alarm clock, she hit a few things which she assumed were lying on her bedside table. Finally after what seemed to take forever, her hand found the device and she slammed her hand on top of it. All that was heard in the pitch black room was of flesh smacking plastic.
Gabriella feeling very good about herself, as she had managed to shut the damn thing up, turned over, pulling the covers up to her neck and settling back down. The room was silent and peaceful again, just how Gabriella liked it. It was however short lived, like most things in life, by her bedroom doors being thrown open and someone stomping through her bedroom like a stampede of wild animals.
"Miss Gabriella it is time to get up." One of the older house maids said in a deep Scottish accent, as the throw open the drapes which were blocking out the bright sunlight.
"Mrs Potts!" Gabriella shouted as she pulled a pillow over her head.
Mrs Potts, is the longest serving member of staff next to Henry working in the Montez house. Having been Gabriella's own personal maid and carer from a very young age Mrs Potts had learned over the year to ignore Gabriella's attitude and demands.
"Now Gabriella it's almost past seven and yah have tae get ready for Mr Bolton tae take yah tae school." Mrs Potts said as she tied the curtains back and let the sun take over Gabriella's rather large room.
"Ahh!" Gabriella screamed into her pillow at the mention of his name.
"Gabriella..Up…Now!" Mrs Potts said pulling the warm comfort, which Gabriella was buried under, off her and proceed to drag her out of her bed. Gabriella had never been one to rise early she was more one to stay up as late as possible even as a young child. But with the years of looking after Gabriella Mrs Potts had learned how to handle her and knew just how to get her out of her bed.
Gabriella finally after ten minutes gave into her demands and rolled out of her four poster bed and slowly wondered across her room to the en-suit so she could get ready in peace. A few other maids made there way into Gabriella's room in order to clean it and make sure the bed was made, in time for Henry to bring in her morning coffee and toasted bagel. Mrs Potts over-seed the work being done to make sure it was done correctly.
Gabriella walked out of her bathroom, hair done, make-up done and wrapped in a fluffy pink towel. Mrs Potts left her to it reminder her she only had twenty minutes before she had to be in the car and on her way to school.
"Yes Mrs Potts I will be down in twenty minutes." Gabriella was now irritated like most mornings by Mrs Potts nagging. Not many people including her own parents knew that this was the best way to deal with Gabriella and to get her to co-operate.
"Twenty minutes Gabby." Mrs Potts was the only person to call her Gabby or the only one who was staff that she allowed to use a nickname for her.
Rolling her eyes Gabriella walked into her walk in closet to pick out what she would be wearing to school that day. She did however flash a smile as she saw breakfast and her school books laid out for her day. Who she hated to love Mrs Potts.
"Ah good morning Troy." Carlos Montez said as he meet Troy in the reception of the house. Troy smiled at his boss and offered a good morning back. Carlos Montez was fixing his tie and he descended the last remaining set of steps of the grand staircase. "I do hope your room and everything is to your liking." Carlos said to Troy as he looked at himself in the mirror.
"Yes Mr Montez. Thank you." Troy said, as Mrs Potts entered the reception area.
"Ahh…Troy I think you have yet to meet the lovely Mrs Potts." Carlos said kissing Mrs Potts check.
"Aye so this is Mr Bolton…well how do yah day son." Her Scottish accent putting a smile on Troy's face.
"Mrs Potts."
"Mrs Potts works mainly with Gabriella and is always on hand if you should ever need any help with her. If anyone knows our Gabriella it is Mrs Potts." Carlos said. "Well must be getting off I have a long day ahead of me…Goodbye Ella." Carlos shouted up the stairs to his only daughter. The three heard back a muffled 'Yeah bye..whatever..' Carlos could only shake his head.
"Dinnae worry Carlos…I 'hink the maids got the biggest part aye her grudge this morning." Mrs Potts said and both Troy and Carlos laughed.
"Well have a good day." After the three bid goodbye Mrs Potts rushed off saying something about fixing some sort of mess a maid had made of some sort. Troy never really caught what she said due to her accent.
"Ah Mrs Potts, you just can't help but love her." James the security officer from breakfast said coming up beside Troy.
"Fergus wants me to accompany you this morning…just so you don't get lost or whatever. Miss Montez can be quiet the handle full. And from what I hear she is in a horrible mode this morning." James said looking up at the top of the stairs.
'Great' Troy thought to his self.
"….I hear she is in a horrible mode this morning." Gabriella heard James say as she neared the top of the satires.
"James I hope that you are not talking about me!" Gabriella said surprising both James and Troy of her sudden appearance at the top of the grand staircase.
"No Mam. Not at all." James said looking at Gabriella.
"Glad cause I would hate to see you out of a job, because you bad mouthed your employers daughter wouldn't you?" She asked James in a sickly sweet voice that made Troy cringe.
"Yes Mam."
"Good don't let it happen again. Ah if it isn't Mr Class One Dick."Gabriella said as she stepped off the finale step into the reception area of the house.
"Princess. Don't you look especially bitchy and bratty today." Troy said with a huge smile on his face and James had to stop himself from laughing. Gabriella glared at them both.
"What in God's name are you still doing here!" Mrs Potts voice rang out. The three of them jumped at her rough and loud voice.
"Get her tae the school know!" Mrs Potts shouted at Troy and James. And all three turned and headed out the door to the awaiting Range Rover.
Only know outside did Troy get a good look at Gabriella. She was wearing a pair of light blue destroyed jeans, with knee high brown boots, she had some sort of white top on under her brown leather jacket and she carried an A4 binder and her brown over the shoulder - which swung with how quickly she was walking to the car. He could not deny that she looked good but her attitude this morning was a lot to be desired. Troy jumped into the the drivers seat while James let Gabriella into the back of the four-by-four.
"You know Mr Bolton…" Gabriella emphasised his name.
"What Princess?" Troy asked her he put the car into drive and pulled out of the driveway.
"I don't like you. And I don't need a bodyguard." Gabriella said pulling out her iPhone 4 from her bag.
"Good to know Princess."
'Man was this going to be a long first day' Troy thought to himself as he pulled out on to the main road.
"It doesn't get any easier." James said and Troy almost laughed. He had gone to war, private-classified missions, torture, even killed. He was sure he could handle a eighteen year old girl.
But how wrong he was. Troy Bolton was about to find out.
AN: Hey guys okay so it has been ages since I updated. And I am truly sorry for that. A lot happened this summer with my prom, graduation,and then my dad surprised us and took us away for like the whole summer. To visit relatives and such so with being on the road all the time I had not time to write. Then it was my birthday (finally able to have a legal drink!) and then my sister went back to school and I have just been so busy and I am really sorry for my lack of new chapters.

If you guys want just let me know and in future chapters I will put up the translation of what Mrs Potts is saying. Wink Wink Mrs Potts is going to play a huge role in this plot so watch out for good old Mrs Potts.
