Author's Note: So most of you said, skip the wedding and then some of you said do the wedding. So to find out your just gonna have to read:) Sorry I haven't updated in a while. I've got 2 weeks of school left, Finals are coming up and I've been extremely busy with helping out around the house and helping my dad out. His liver is failing and he feels terrible. He's going to start this interfer...something. I forgot what it's called. But he's probably going to be on that for two years. It's like Chemo, but for a failing liver. So all I have to do is wait and see how he's going to feel. Thanks for all your guys support and it's really nice to know you guys are there to talk to:)


Chapter 18

Troy's POV

It's been a month. April passed as well as Keith and Andrea's wedding. It was absolutely gorgeous. And Gabriella, was beautiful in her maid of honor's dress. That was a actually funny thing that happened a week before the wedding. That's kinda why Tess wasn't really around as much. She just stayed cooped up in her bedroom at the Montez house hold. I went went all the girls, since for one I didn't want to go tux shopping and Andrea and I had already gotten it prior, and I just wanted to tag along with my fiance. They were in the bridal shop and it was a show-down.

Flashback

A week before the wedding...

At the bridal shop

I sat down and Ella came and sat in my lap and wrapped her arms around my neck and cuddle up to me. Tess, Taylor, Sharpay, Sam, Kelsi, Tareney, Emma and Lucy all came along to help Andrea with her wedding dress fitting. She had it all picked out and all she needed now was to get it fitted.

Andrea walked into the fitting area and get her dress on and I chatted with the girls.

"So Troy, how do you like tagging along with us girls?"Sam asked me.

"Personally, I like it."I said and smiled.

"You only like it because your precious 'Ella' is here."Sharpay pointed out. I looked at her for a moment trying to think and then came back to life.

"And that."I said and got a giggle out of Ella.

"Oh, please dear lord help me so..."I hear Tess mumble.

"Do you have a problem?"Gabi asked her. Tess looked at us and then smirked.

"Yes. Yes I have a problem with all of you. Especially him."she said and pointed to me. What!? What the hell did I do!?

"What the hell did I do?!"I practically shouted.

"You chose her over me."she said and pointed to Gabriella and then her. I snorted.

"Of course I would. I don't want to date a whore."I got smacked in the head by Lucy.

"Troy! It's really not nice to call her that even if you don't like her!"she shouted. I nodded at Lucy. I heard Ella giggle and I chuckled.

"You think it's funny that you got smacked and told off?"Tess asked.

"No I think it's funny that Gabriella giggled."

"Hey! I like my laugh!thank you very much."Gabriella said defending herself. I pulled her closer.

"Hey I love your laugh too!"I said and kissed her. She giggled into the kiss and I heard gagging noises. I knew it was Tess. GOD! I hated her. Gabriella and I pulled away and All of us were looking at Tess like she was 2.

"What are you 2?"Taylor asked.

"No, I just think PDA is gross coming from them."she defended herself.

"Well if it's so gross then stop looking. At least they have each other and you no one."Sharpay snapped. Whoa! Drama Queen on fire! Damn it's hot! Not her. Just all the raging hormones that are going to be turned into a fist fight that won't be pretty. Blood all over the nice pretty white dresses here and ambulances here and there gathering all the bloody people and taking them to the hospital and so on and so on. I could go on for days. But nah...

"Erg!!"Tess let out and we all laughed at her.

"Mhmmm.."we heard and looked up to see Andrea in a beautiful silk gown that had a trail and had thin straps to hold up her dress and a bow in the back. It was simply gorgeous. Gosh, I can't wait until I see Ella's when I'm up there on the alter.

"Andrea you look beautiful." I told her sincerely.

"Look Gabriella, your boyfriend is hitting on my mother."Tess shouted.

"Tessandrea Melony Mason! Stop it this second!"Andrea commanded. Tess gasped at her full name. I never knew that! I was laughing on the inside so hard!!

"Mom!"she screeched.

"Shush."Andrea told her and I chuckled quietly.

"It's gorgeous, Andrea."The girls said except Tess.

"So who are your maid of honor and bride's maids?"I asked her. Tess was going to get Maid of Honor since she was Andrea's daughter and I think Gabriella, Lucy, Emma and Tareney would get Bridesmaid because well Ella's going to be her step-daughter and Lucy, Emma and Tareney are all dating her future son in laws.

"My bridesmaid's are Lucy, Emma, Tareney and Tess and Gabriella will be my maid of honor."Andrea said. I was dead dropped shocked! Tess isn't going to be happy!

"WHAT!?"damn Tess has a set of lungs.

"Tess, you've been acting out lately and ever since the whole ordeal thing between you, Troy and Gabriella, I just don't think you can handle being my maid of honor."Andrea said. I agreed!

"What the fuck ever. I'm out!"Tess shouted and ran out of the store. wowzer.

"Well that was entertaining."I said out loud. All the woman look at me. I shrugged and continued to do what I was doing.

End of Flashback

"Troy..."I turned around from where I was sitting on mine and Ella's bed and saw Ella standing there looking at me.

"Hey babe."I said and got up and wrapped my arms around her pette frame. I brought her back to the bed and we started talking.

"Troy?" she called out my name after a while of silence over took us.

"Yeah, babe?" I looked at her. She was concentrating hard on whatever she was going to tell me.

"After we're married, um, are we going to find our own place or live with my dad? Because...I'd rather live with my dad." She said and I didn't mind living with her father. I had gotten along with her father and brother's these past few months.

"I'd live where ever you wanted to live, honey." She smiled at me my favorite smile on her.

"What college are you planning on for next year?" the question surprised me a little. I hadn't really thought of it. I mean with everything that went on in the last several months it's kinda hard to think about where your future lies of education wise.

"I haven't really thought of it. I guess U of A or maybe UNM." I replied to her question.

"What about you Ella?"

"Ummm, same." I smiled. At least we would get to go to college together hopefully. I couldn't wait to marry this girl in my arms.

"How many kids do you want?" that question took me by surprise completely! I seriously didn't know the answer to that. After Ella's pregnancy scare, I just shut myself off from thinking about kids. I mean we're young and we should live out our lives and then plan kids. I know Ella and I moved fast in our relationship, but I love this girl more than money could buy.

"I don't know. I guess 2."

"C'mon Troy...how many." I thought about it for a second. My parents just wanted one kid and that was all. I guess I would like a big family.

"Fine...umm 6." I heard a giggle come from her.

"Are you having 3 of them?" she asked. I chuckled along with her.

"C'mon Ella, you asked me and I answered. How many do you want?" I asked her.

"At least 6 maybe a couple more who knows." I was stunned.

"Why 6?" I asked. I was fairly curious.

"I love kids. I honestly love them. And I always wanted a big family. I even talked to my mom about this before she died. She said find the man of your heart and soul and dreams, marry him and raise a family. Make sure you have a big one though. Because it would totally be worth it in the end."

"I agreed. You mom was a smart woman." I said and I earned a great big smile from Ella. This was all going to work out just fine.
