Chapter 17- Oreo
"Troy!" I yelled I walked into our new house, it still smelled like one too. I then put my school books on the counter of the apartment. I didn't hear him call back; I walked towards the kitchen to see a note. Aw at least he left a note.
Gabi-
I had to run to a last minute practice. I might be home for dinner, I don't know. I love you!
-Troy
Practice? That wasn't on his schedule, I guess he did say last minute; I walked into the living room and turned on the TV. I kicked my shoes off and pulled out my cell phone. I then sent Taylor a text message, they were upstairs together but I didn't feel like walking all the way up there.
Hey, since the boys are at practice do you want to study together? I am downstairs…
I layed my phone down and pulled my books out of my bag, I put my hand on my stomach, I couldn't wait. I couldn't wait for this little baby to come out, and I was only at mouth 4. This was going to be forever. My phone then vibrated, I looked down and picked it up.
What practice? Chad is sitting right next me? We are watching TV
What the hell? I shook my head thinking it was a joke.
Troy left a note saying he was going to practice…
I then silently began to panic, I got up and went back to the note, and I read it over and over. To make sure I didn't miss the most important words, to make sure he didn't give a hint away. I then heard my phone ring from across the room. I raced to it and picked it up.
Nope. No practice. I am coming down…
I started to cry, tears falling towards my feet. I then hit speed dial 2. Troy. I heard it ring once…twice…three times…fourth…fifth.
"Hey, this is Troy, leave a message and I will get back to you as soon as possible! Bye…"
I started to cry a little harder, I then threw my phone towards the other couch in frustration.
"Gabs?" I looked up to see Taylor; she was standing there in her PJ's.
I then broke down crying in front of her, she went over and wrapped her arms around me.
"W-what I-if h-he I-is c-cheating on me" I wailed in her arms, she shushed me and rocked me back and forth. I let go of her and picked up my phone again, I tried again. This time it went straight to voicemail. I started to cry even harder.
"Gabs, maybe he is at the gym" Taylor said shrugging
"No! Taylor he turned his phone off!" I screamed
She silently looked at me, I walked into the kitchen and sat down at the table and cried. I felt Taylor come over and start rubbing my back.
"Troy probably isn't doing, he just might be busy" She said
"Busy making out with some other girl" I mumbled, she sighed and looked at me.
"Troy wouldn't do it"
"How do you know?" I asked, I looked up at her
"Because, Gabi he loves you. Not loved or did love he LOVES you" she said loudly, I wiped the side of my eyes and stood up.
"I am going to look for him" I said quietly, I grabbed my jacket and car keys.
"Gabi! Why not wait for him?" Taylor asked
"Because, then it might be too late" I whispered, I opened the door and started walking towards my car, I backed out of the drive-way and out the gates. As I was driving down the street I saw his car fly by mine, I screeched my brakes and followed him.
He didn't turn at my drive-way, he drove straight, I stayed a few cars behide him to make sure he didn't see me. He then pulled up to the beach. What was he doing here? I parked my car a few ways down, I saw him get out and start walking towards the sand, and he slipped off his flip-flops and then sat down to where the waves barely touched his toes. I got out of the car and walked towards him quietly. I slipped off my flip-flops and then stood behide him.
"Troy Bolton" I said putting my hands on my hips, his head spun around and looked at me.
"Shit, Gabi I didn't know you were here" He said rambling, tears pricked my eyes.
"Oh!" I said flinging my hands up in the air "I guess I will leave you to your other girl!" I screamed the tears falling down my cheeks quickly. I turned around and started walking back to my car, I would run but I can't for the baby. As I took a step I felt his hand wrap around mine.
"Gabs wait" He said, I turned around wiping my tears away.
"What?" I screamed, he then leaned in and kissed me, it was the most romantic kiss ever. It was gently yet passionate. The fireworks blowing up in the distance. I pulled my lips back and started to back away.
"No, Gabi" He pleaded, I started to cry and little more, he brought me into a hug. His chin rested on the top of mine.
"There is no other girl; I could never hurt you like that. I love you too much Ella. I promise I wouldn't do that to you"
"B-but you lied in the note" I said, my voice a little shaky.
He sighed and rubbed my back, "I really didn't lie, I went to the gym to play some pick-up but I thought it would sound better if I told you it was practice" He whispered
"You don't have to lie to me Troy; I promise I won't freak out because you went somewhere. You aren't a prisoner, you are a guy Troy, go do what you want, when you want. If you leave a note telling me great" I whispered into his ear, he then slipped his arms around my waste and started swaying, we were dancing.
I giggled softly "Troy, there is no music" I said
"Does there need to be music?" He asked
I shook my head no as we danced as the sunset behide us, the breeze from the ocean feeling wonderful. The sound of the ocean making it peaceful.
"I have something to share with you" He whispered
"Where is it?"
"At home, get in your car and then meet me in the kitchen" He said, I nodded my head, and we walked towards the car hand-in-hand. When we parted he kissed my cheek and said I love you.
"I love you too" I smiled at him and walked towards the car, we drove home and I met him in the kitchen.
"So what is this surprise?" I asked him, I wrapped my arms around his waist. He smiled and kissed my forehead.
"Oh well, it's just that room" He said
I gasped, "Oh and speaking of rooms we need to turn a guest room into the nursery, I haven't told you my idea yet either!" I said, he smiled and shook his head.
"Yeah we do before everything gets to hectic and I have practice all day which starts next week." He said
"We have a week?" I asked with a disappointed frown, I was hoping he would do it. Not me and Taylor.
"Yep, sorry baby girl" He said, we then stood outside the room. His hands covered my face and I heard him open the door.
"Surprise" He whispered, he removed his hands from my face. I gasped.
"Troy, you didn't" I said softly turning to look at him, a gently smile taking over his face.
"I did"
"But how did you know"
"Sharpay"
I nodded my head, it was perfect. Two walls were brown, the other two waiting on the baby to be born. The crib and changing table were white with brown bedding. There was a basketball mobile above the crib. I turned to Troy laughing.
"Really?" I asked
"Why not, I mean it could be girl or boy" He said
I nodded my head "yeah but it doesn't have to play basketball, it can do what every is wants." I told him, he nodded his head.
"Yes of course, and I will go to every single game, or recital or whatever he or she does." He said with a small smile on his face.
I looked over to see a yellow and green stroller, the white high chair placed in the corner. The car seat was sitting in the stroller which was yellow. The dresser was empty.
"I get to go shopping" I mumbled, I heard Troy sigh from the other side of the room.
Then there was all these toys, they were all set-up and ready to go. I smiled and looked at Troy.
"Have you looked in the crib yet?" he asked me, he raised an eye brow at me.
"Uh no" I said, he then nudged his head in the direction of the crib, I then walked over to peered inside the crib, I gasped from the present inside.
"Troy! You got us a dog!" I said, I leaned over and grabbed the puppy that was sitting in the crib sleeping. It was white and fluffy, it was also very soft, and she had a black spot though in the middle of her back, like a birth mark.
I turned around to see he had the most loving smile on his face.
"Yeah I did, if she would wake up you would see her beautiful brown eyes" He said
"What type of dog is she?" I said cradling her in my arms
"An American Eskimo, they are supposed to be a good pet for little kids. She won't get much bigger than that" He said
"How old is she?"
"6 weeks, just a baby, she also is the runt. She will be small" She then started to wake up, I looked at her as she did, she yawned and then looked at me.
"Hey baby girl" I said, she then started to wag her tail. It almost looked like she was smiling. I giggled and looked up towards Troy.
"Let's take her outside then to Petsmart" He said, I nodded my head and carried her outside, I sat her down on the grass and she started to walk around, her legs were really unstable. She almost looked drunk.
"Troy she looks drunk" he then started laughing
"She doesn't have any legs yet Gabs"
Then the wind started to pick up, her hair blew in the wind. I reached down for Troy's hand.
"Oreo" I said into the air
"For the dog?" He asked me
"No for the baby!" I said sarcastically, I then smiled "Yes for the dog"
"Well I love it, just like I love the cookie" He said poking my nose.
"Yep, just like me, she is really cute Troy" I said
"I thought so too, they were just going to get rid of her because she was so small but I took her before they did. She was too cute not to" He said shrugging; I smiled and looked at him.
"You are going to be one whipped dad" I said to him
"I am not!" He cried out, I nodded my head giggling. I then chased after the puppy. I picked her up in my arms and started running around with her. She barked in my ear as we played along. I giggled the entire time. I then stopped to catch my breath.
"Ready to go to Petsmart?" Troy asked me, I nodded my head and walked towards him.
"Hey can you hold her for a second?" I asked him, he nodded his head and I carefully handed over Brie. Troy then held her up.
"Just like a baby"
"Yep, its almost perfect practice" I said to him, I threw my hair up into a messy bun and took my dog back.
"You are too cute!" I exclaimed to her, she then sat up and licked my face, I laughed softly and she barked.
"Oh really? I thought so," I said, Troy just looked at me.
"What did she say?" He asked clearly amused.
"Said that your pretty hot" I said as we sat down in Troy's car. I heard him laugh and start to the car.
"Well Oreo I am pretty hot, just ask El's" He said laughing; I smacked his shoulder as we drove down the street.
"Be nice" I warned him
"Shouldn't you be telling the dog that?" He asked, I shrugged my shoulders and played with Oreo some more. When Oreo started to fall asleep, I put her head on my shoulder and held her like that.
"You are going to be a fantastic mom" Troy said, I looked him.
"You have already told me this once before" I said to him
"I know, but I see you doing something that reminds me that you are a great mom. You will be a great mom." He said softly, we then pulled into the Petsmart parking lot. I opened the door and got out with out waking the puppy. I grabbed Troy's hand with my free one and we walked towards the entrance of the store. Once we got in the sales lady greeted us.
"Why Hello, welcome to Petsmart! Is this a puppy I see?" She asked, I nodded my head
"Yes, we just got her" I said, the lady smiled.
"Its so cute, boy or girl?" She asked Troy
"Girl" he said, the sales lady nodded
"An American Eskom is great with kids, whats her name?" She asked
"Oreo" I said giggling, "because she has this black mark right here" I said pointing, she smiled.
"So cute, well find me if you need anything" she said, I nodded my head and we walked forward. We went down the leash section.
"Let's get her pink with white poky dots?" I said
"Pink?" He asked
"It is a girl Troy" I said, I shifted her over to my other arm and grabbed the collar. I wrapped it and it fit perfectly. I snapped it in place and left it on. I grabbed the leash and we walked towards the food. Troy grabbed a bag of Puppy Chow and we then went over to the collar tags.
"Let's get a white and black on and have rhinestones on the front in pink?" I said, Troy only nodded his head.
"Anything for you baby girl" He said, he then leaned down and kissed my temple. I smiled and made the collar tag. I put our phone number and address on the back. When I got it back from the machine, I hooked it onto Oreos collar; Troy was holding Oreo at the time. She was up and ready to play. We grabbed the last few things and were ready to go, we went to the check out line and we put everything on the counter.
"She has her collar and tag on" I said to them, the lady nodded and then leaned over and scanned it. I smiled; she rang up the treats, the kennel, toys, and the food. She also got leash. When we finished with check-out she handed Oreo a milky bone.
"Here you go Oreo!" I said to her, she chewed on it for a minute and then started to eat it. We all laughed at her.
"She is a very cute dog" The sales lady said, I nodded my head.
"Thank you! My boyfriend gave her to me today" I said looking up at Troy who was smirking.
"Well that was very kind of him now wasn't it" She said I nodded my head and kissed Troy cheek. He chuckled a little and grabbed the bags while I picked up Oreo.
"Thank you" I said to them as we left, I heard a few faint your welcomes but we were already by the car.
"Ready to go home?" I asked Oreo
She only looked at me; I then grabbed her leash and put her on it. I took her over to the grass and let her go potty real quick. When she was done I led her back to the car. I helped her in and shut the door.
The ride home was silent, listening to music. Troy was concentrating on driving.
"I love you Gabs, and don't forget it" He said as he parked the car, I nodded my head.
"I wouldn't forget it for the world" I said, he nodded his head at me.
"Good, now lets go show Chad and Taylor Oreo" He said, I nodded my head and we walked up the stairs.
"Chad! Taylor! Come see our newest addition" Troy yelled Chad and Taylor both came running down the stairs.
"You had the baby already?" They cried together, Troy and I bursted out laughing.
"No! We got a dog" Troy said, his hands then went straight to my stomach, as if protecting he was protecting the baby. I wrapped my hands around his.
"Aw really you did?" They asked
I nodded my head and pointed behide me
"Oh my! It's so cute! Whats its name" She asked
"Oreo and it's a girl" I told them, they both then went down and played with the dog, I turned and looked at Troy. I laid my head down on his chest. His arms wrapped around me.
"Thank you Troy for these wonderful presents" I said
"Mmm…You are welcome but how about a make-out session in return" He whispered in my ear, I giggled and nodded my head.
"We are going to get her stuff settled, can you guys watch her?" I asked them
"Yah, does she need to go out?" Taylor asked
"Yeah, probably" I said, I grabbed a few bags and went upstairs, with Troy at my footsteps. I then returned all my gifts to Troy.
