Chapter 3

June 3rd 5:22 P.M. Oshners Park.

"Higher Mommy, Higher!!!" She squealed as I pushed her higher on the swings. Today has been a very productive day. We went to the water park, which was free since I work there, Culvers, and now the park. It's been weeks since I've been able to take her anywhere, and I'm so glad I got this chance. I would hate it if she forgot all the fun times we've had together before she grows up and hates me like all teenagers do. I'll admit that between the ages of 12 and 17, I hated my mom too, then when you turn 18, there's a bigger sense of respect for your parents, at least that's what happened for me. My phone started buzzing so I reached into my pocket and saw that the Kalahari resort was phoning me.

"Hello?"

"Higher Mommy!" She giggled. I was able to swing her and talk at the same time.

"Hi, Gabriella, it's Jake form the Kalahari."

"Oh, hey Jake. What's up?" Jake is my supervisor. Everybody thinks he's a jerk, but I've gotten to know him better than others so I know he's pretty cool.

"We have a situation. There's a high profile guest coming, so I need you to cover for Sasha."

"She called in again, didn't she." Sasha is a stubborn 17 year old that takes everything for granted. I'm not quite sure how she even got the job, but oh well.

"I'm sorry. I know you were supposed to have those days off, but you're our best girl."

"Aww, thanks Jake." I sighed.

"You didn't have plans did you?" He sounded sorry.

"Um, well, actually I did. Since Belle's birthday is in December, I figured I would let her and her friends have a party at the resort and all, but I guess I can come in."

"Oh, well, You can still have the party here. Um, We'll just have you work a morning shift and the kids could come in in the afternoon. Everybody's happy." He really was trying to help.

"That's a good idea, thank you soo much Jake."

"Oh, you're welcome Gabs, it's the least I can do."

"Ya, well hey, who are the high profile guests, A.K.A. celebrities?"

"Well, we actually don't know. His agent called and gave a secret name."

"Right, like that will keep the paparazzi away." I joked.

He laughed. "Ya, well I gotta go, I'll see you tomorrow?"

"Ya, Bye."

"Bye."

I hung up and grabbed the swing as Belle came back. "I gotchu!"

She screamed with laughter as she jumped off the swing and ran off into the soccer field. I ran after her picked her up, swinging her around.

"Mommy, put me down!!" She laughed.

"O.k., o.k.!" I laughed. When I set her down, my eyes caught the necklace I had allowed her to wear. I felt that if she wore it, he would come to her. I know it sounds far fetched, but I can still dream.

"Mommy, like the necklace daddy gave?" She was laughing still.

I just smiled and tickled her sides. "I love it, just like I love you!"

"For ever and ever?" She giggled.

"Forever and ever."

"I love you Mommy."

"Forever and ever?"

"Forever and ever." We laughed as I swung her around again and headed towards the car. It was getting late, so we needed to head home. "What do you want for dinner?"

"CANDY!!" She giggled, knowing I would say no.

"O.k." I Simply said and laughed when her head whipped around and looked at me like I was crazy. "Gotcha!"

She smiled. "Mommy, silly!"

"I know, I know!" We laughed and drove back home.

June 4th 11:30 a.m. Private Jet 14 to Madison, Wisconsin.

"Thanks again, Troy, for helping me move. I really appreciate it!" She smiled at me. "You too, Chad!" She giggled as she saw the look on his face. Chad isn't a fan of flying, so he was pretty tense. Sharpay would bust out laughing because every time the plane would shake a little, Chad would grab the arm rest and have a death look. I had to admit, it was pretty funny.

"No problem Shar. It's the least I can do." I smiled.

"Ya, thanks a lot, Troy!" I looked at Chad and laughed. He still hadn't loosened up.

"Chill man. You're not going to die, I promise!" I chuckled again.

"Ya, o.k., keep telling yourself that Bolton."

"O.k., cuz it's keeping me calm, you should try it, loosen up."

Just when he was about to loosen up, the plane shook and he clung to the seat again. We laughed again. After the first hour of making fun of him, he stopped glaring at us. He was just so funny.

"O.k., so, where is this dance studio of yours again?" I asked Sharpay.

She perked up and looked at me, smiles and all. "O.k., it's in a small town called Baraboo, and the dance studio is right next to Circus World. It's called the B.R.A.V.O center. I'm soo excited. Kids have been going to this studio for years, and the owner is retiring, so I'm taking over. I'm soo excited!!"

"In Baraboo? I though we were going to the Dells?"

"Oh, well, Baraboo is about 10 to 15 minutes from the Dells, so ya. It's such a cute little town. You'ld love it! Not a lot of people know it exists."

"Ya, I know I didn't." We both laughed."

"Mr. Bolton, we'll be landing in about 10 minutes." The pilot announced.

"Great, now we can off this stupid plane!" We laughed at Chad again.

After we landed, there was a large rental car waiting for us to put all of Sharpay's things in and make the hour drive towards the small town of Baraboo. The drive wasn't to bad, I surely haven't seen this many farms in my life! Part of the drive was through some mountain like things. Sharpay said they were bluffs but whatever.

Finally we made it and as son as we were in the town, it felt like we had left it. We weren't stopping right away at her apartment, she still couldn't move in for another day or so, that's why we had booked a suite at the Kalahari resort. It's supposed to be amazing, so why not!

It didn't take long to get the Wisconsin Dells, Dells for short. The moment we drove under the 90/94 bridge, resorts were everywhere. The Kalahari resort was on the right, while the Great Wolf Lodge was on the left. There was a cool outlet mall behind the resort and plenty more ahead. The resort was right inside the dells, so we would have to explore the rest later. When we pulled in to the Kalahari, we noticed it was connected to the movie theatre, Damon's, a bar/ restaurant, and a giant 2 floor indoor amusement park. I had to admit, it looked pretty sweet. We're staying in the Entertainment Loft, so it should look like an upscale apartment. I'm excited, but Chad, he just wants to meet some girls. Typical Chad.

"Woah!" Chad, I guess, changed his mind about staying here when we stepped into the Kondo. It truly was amazing. Everything was African themed, there was even Zebra skin in the room.

"Wow, this really is amazing, Troy! How much is this costing you?" Sharpay seems to have forgotten that the rate here equals about 5 minutes on the court.

I chuckled. "Don't worry about it, I've got it covered."

"O.k.…" She set down some of her bags and walked around the condo. "I call the master bed!!!" She squealed as she darted into the bedroom.

"Aw, man!" I chuckled as Chad made his way into another room.

Sharpay came running back in the living room. "How long are you guys staying here for?"

"As long as we want. We just tell them when we're ready to leave and then we leave."

"Fabulous!" She giggled and ran back into her bedroom.

"Hey, we should hit the water park!" Chad suggested.

"Ya, man." I walked into another bedroom and set my stuff down. "Sharpay, we can get your car tomorrow. There's this sweet little small town dealer ship in, um, Reedsburg, so we can go there tomorrow!"

"Wait, what? Who said anything about a car?" She was puzzled, I chuckled.

"I did, now go get ready, we're going to the water park!"

After waiting about an hour for Sharpay to get ready and get started towards the water park, we walked in and stared in awe. There was an up water slide. Yes I did say up! It would shoot you down, then use water to push you back up. There was a thing called, Flo rider, where they taught you how to surf and tons of Hot tubs!! I made my way over to one behind a slide called the toilet bowl and made myself comfortable.

"Yo, hoops, lets hit some slide!"

"Nah, I'm gonna just relax, you guys can go ahead."

"Whatever man. Come on Shar, let's have fun while troy sits and gets wrinkles." I laughed at him while he sounded like a child.

The hot water was relaxing on my stressed out back. I had been stressing about Gabriella so much lately that I needed to just relax. I was about to relax completely when a high pitched squeal sounded behind me followed by a giant splash, getting me all wet.

"Hey!" When the culprit surfaced, I noticed it was a little girl, around 4 or 5, equipt with floaties. She smiled at me.

"Hey!!" She said, staring at me.

I looked around, trying to find her mother, with no luck. I looked back at her and gave her a small smile. "Um, hi."

"You look like my daddy!"

"Um, o.k." What do you say to that. "What's your name?"

"Annabelle, but mommy calls me Belle."

"Oh, like the princess?"

"Yep, mommy's favorite."

"Cool."

"What's your name?" She made her way next to me and stood there; she was too short to sit down. It surprised me that she could stand the heat. Brave girl.

"Um, Troy." She wouldn't know who I am.

"That's my daddies name too." She was still smiling at me. Her eyes were very blue, with dirty blonde hair, curly. She reminded me a little of Gabriella.

"Oh, cool. Your daddy is a cool guy than."

"Yep."

"I like your floaties!" Where is this girl's mother?

She smiled and tried to hide her face, her cheeks flushed red, just like Gabriella's used too."Thank you." She giggled. "Want to come to my birthday party?"

"Oh, well, um…" How do you tell a 4 year old that that would just be weird. "I have grown up things to do." I nodded, pleased with my answer.

"Oh, o.k." She looked down, a little sad.

"Um, so, where's your mommy?"

She stood up straight and looked me right in the eyes. "She's working, but auntie Nicky is watching me."

Sure she is. "So, um, where is your auntie Nicky?"

"Umm…" She looked around, worried. I'm guessing she had no idea. Great, just what I needed, a lost kid.

"Do you need help looking for her?"

"YEAH!!" She jumped out of the pool and waited for me. "Thank you Blue!"

"Blue?" Did I tell her my name was blue?

"Yep, your eyes are pretty, so you will be called blue." She said it matter of factly. I couldn't help but chuckle. She was the cutest thing I've ever seen.

"Oh, well thank you. Can I call you little blue?" I chuckled again.

"Little blue?" She looked puzzled as I took her hand and we walked around the water park in search of Auntie Nicky.

"Yeah. You're eyes are pretty too." I laughed as she smiled up at me. She really was cute.

"O.k., you big blue, I little blue."

I chuckled. "O.k., so where to little blue?"

"Um….uh oh!" I looked up and saw an angry blonde running in our direction. I would guess this was auntie Nicky.

"Annabelle Jane!!" She was furious.

"Is that Auntie Nicky?" I looked down at her as she hid behind my legs. She just nodded her head. The blonde finally reached us and stared angrily at little blue.

"Annabelle Jane!! How many times do I have to tell you not to run away!"

"Sowwy Nicky!" She said, hugging onto my legs. I chuckled again.

Auntie Nicky looked up and me with an apologetic expression, which changed to complete surprise.

Uh, oh, here it comes, the crazed fan. "Oh, um, hi, um…" She cleared her throat and attempted to not look at me. I chuckled. "I'm so sorry about her."

"Oh, hey, it's o.k., kids will be kids." I chuckled, letting her know it was o.k.

She gave a nervous chuckle. "Yeah, ha, um…" She looked back at little blue and scowled. "You, missy, come here right now!"

I looked down at her and nodded, telling her she better go. She walked out behind my legs and made her way over to the slightly calmed down blonde. "Sowwy Nicky." She said. Her bottom lip out and everything. She totally reminded me of myself.

The blonde took a breath and sighed. "It's o.k. Belle, just don't run away, o.k.?"

"O tay." The blonde took her hand and looked back at me. "Tell the nice man thank you."

"Thank you big blue!" She said with a big smile on her face.

I smiled back and chuckled. "You're very welcome little blue." I waved goodbye and headed back towards my ho tub. "What a cute kid." I mumbled as I sat back down in the hot tub. Chad and Sharpay would be back over soon, so I decided I should try and take a small nap before they drag me out all night. My nap consisted of dreams about Gabriella, again.

June 4th, 3:30 P.M. Kalahari Guest Relations

"MOMMY!!" I heard Belle's squeal as I turned and opened my arms wide, letting her run into them and gave her a big hug.

"Hey sweety, how was the water park?"

"Tell her Belle." Nicky walked in, a little flustered.

"Belle, what did you do?" I didn't want to sound angry.

"Well, I, um…" She rubbed the back of her neck, just like Troy used to do when he was nervous. She looked so cute when she did it.

"Go ahead."

"I ran away from Nicky." She put her head down, knowing she would be in trouble.

I reached for her hand and forced her to look at me. "You know better than to run away like that."

"I sowwy mommy."

I was feeling generous so I just smiled. "It's o.k. baby." I looked up at Nicky and gave her a reassuring smile. "Kids will be kids?"

Her face lit up. "Oh my god, that totally reminds me of something. When I found her, she had this extremely hot guy walking her around the park. I'm telling you Gabs, he was F.I.N.E!!!"

"Oh, Big Blue!!" Belle busted out into giggles.

"So, you met a Mr. Blue?"

"No, mommy, he big blue, and I little blue."

"You're little blue?"

"Yes mommy. We boff have blue eyes, so he big blue and I little blue." Her eyes were big with excitement.

I looked at Nicky and smiled. "Is that so?"

"He looked kind of familiar, but oh well, He was FINE though!!" I laughed at her expression. She looked like she was on a big blue high.

"Well, maybe I should meet this FINE big blue!" We all laughed as we made our way out of the room and led Belle into the convention room to get ready for her party.

YEAH!!!!! He met Annabelle!!! O.k., so it's only a matter of time before Troyella meets again….or is it???? Muwahahaha!!!! Sorry about that….o.k. so I personally love this chapter, but I need your feed back. Tell me what you think!!! SuzzieD
