"I don't hate you," Temperance said, pointing at Troy and Gabriella, after shoving her suitcases off on Troy and turning back to face her parents. "I hate you!"

Troy looked at Gabriella, shifting the suitcases slightly in his arms before looking back at Temperance.

"So you're dying. Boo fuckin' hoo! People die all the time!" She said to her mom before looking at her father. "But you're just fine. You don't have to go anywhere, yet you're leaving me here with a sister I've never met. Who cares that she's some superstar diva and her lover is some superstar sports coach. I don't know them and they don't know me! But you want to leave, so just get the fuck out of here! You don't want me, I don't want you! Get out! We don't want you anymore!" She smirked, stepping back by her sister, wrapping her arm around her sister's waist and smirking at her parents. "Don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out."

Gabriella tried not to laugh. She loved her sister's attitude. She wished she could have been this strong against her parents earlier. Sure she had told them to leave, but she had broken down in front of them and she hadn't wanted to. She slowly wrapped her arm around her sister and stood firm beside her.

"Lo siento," their parents said to both of their daughters for so many different reasons, but neither of them were shedding a tear.

Gabriella wasn't this time and Temperance wasn't. Not a chance.

"Just go," Troy said, stepping closer to Gabriella, his gaze connecting with Eduardo's, showing him that he was serious.

André was right inside the door and he would call him out if he needed to. Maria looked up to Eduardo with tears in her eyes, both of them nodding to each other before they looked back to their daughters, nodding to the two of them and to Troy.

"We do love you. Both you," Eduardo said, looking up at Troy. "You will take care of them?"

Troy took a deep breath, insulted that he, of all people, would ask. "I've taken care of Gabriella. You have no reason to doubt I will take care of Temperance."

Eduardo nodded, turning back to Maria, nodding and taking her by her hand. "I'm glad you have each other now. Hermanas." Eduardo turned her away from them, and they walked to the car.

"Can we just go in now?" Temperance asked, turning away, not wanting to watch them leave.

Gabi nodded, turning to open the door. "Vamanos," she whispered, looking up at Troy.

He took a slow breath, nodding helping her open the door, even with Temperance's bags in his arms. Temperance didn't wait for them, walking inside and looking around the place.

"Somebody likes a little too much purple."

Toy looked at André as he walked in taking a deep breath. "You can stand outside the door now."

André nodded and stepped outside the door. Temperance dropped her other two bags she had hanging on her shoulders as André pulled the door shut. Temperance turned around, looking Gabriella up and down, noticing her outfit. Gabriella usually dressed in some shade of lavender or lilac.

"That would be you. Nice."

She was a little bit too sarcastic, but both Troy and Gabriella were sure it was because she was bitter about her parents abandoning her, not because of Gabriella;s choice of clothing or house décor.

"Are you hungry?" Gabi asked, taking a step toward her little sister, rubbing her own arms softly, not knowing what she could do to help her sister feel comfortable.

"No, I'm not hungry. I'm not thirsty. I'm angry. I'm mad. I'm pissed off... Do you see a pattern here? Good. Why don't you just show me where I'll be sleeping so we can get this first night over with and we can get on to day two? Sound like a good idea?"

Troy saw Gabriella's eyes fall and he wished that he could make things better for her, but he knew that Temperance would have to come around on her own time, just like Tori had, but he was going to do his best to make things go as smoothly as possible on both of them, but mostly for Lily.

"Come on, Temperance. We'll show you to your room. It's actually your niece's room, but she's giving it up for you until we can figure out something better."

Temperance held up her hands. "Whoa! You're sticking me in the mini diva's room."

Gabriella took a step forward, really tired of her sister's attitude already. "It's only temporary, Temperance. Now just suck it up and we'll figure things out."

She tucked the custody papers under her arm as she crossed her arms over her breasts, walking past her sister up the stairs. She would have tried to take a suit case from Troy, but she knew him too well to know that he wouldn't even let her take one from him. Troy nodded at Temperance, nodding his head toward the stairs.

"After you," he said, waiting for her to pass in front of him.

She rolled her eyes and headed up the stairs in front of him. "Odio esto," she grumbled, practically stomping up the stairs.

"Cuidado, Temparance. I may be a Gringo, but that doesn't mean I don't know some Spanish. Your sister and your niece have been teaching me."

She turned around and glared at him, rolling her eyes. "Pajúo!"

Troy shook his head. "Yeah, do you think I haven't heard that one before? You know, we're practically related, Temperance. Your sister and I are going to be married. I'm your niece's father. Do you think we could try to get along here?"

She came to the top of the stairs, looking down at him. "No sé. Tu me dime, Papi."

Troy took a deep breath, shaking his head at her flippant tone. "This is hard on your sister. I don't care how you treat me. I can take whatever you want to dish out, but as long as you're under my roof, and yes, this is my roof, I live here with Gabriella, we live here together, you treat her and our daughter, your niece, with respect and love, even if you don't feel it yet. Do you understand me?"

Temperance smirked down at him. "Damn, you're hot. No wonder Gabriella is fucking you." She looked him over again, taking in a heated breath, looking back into his eyes. "Tell me what to do again."

Troy's eyes widened drastically, shaking his head. "Just go into the room, Temperance."

He was done with her. He couldn't believe she had just said that. He was used to forward girls. He worked with cheerleaders, but she was just a child for Christ's sake. Then again, cheerleaders were just like that in high school too. He led her into the room where Gabriella was making the bed with some new sheets. Temperance came in behind Troy and dropped her bags on the floor.

"You've gotta be shitting me! Do you have ANYTHING that isn't purple?"

Troy turned to her, setting her suitcases down at the bottom of the bed. "They're not purple, right, babe? What hue are these?"

Gabriella picked up a pillow and tucked it under her chin, starting to shimmy the pillow case onto it. She looked up at Troy and he could see the tears in her eyes she wasn't allowing to fall. Temperance wouldn't know they were there, not unless she was the same kind of crier... And she was, but Troy wouldn't know that yet. Temperance knew those eyes, because she had those same kind of eyes herself. She had those same kind of eyes downstairs when she was saying goodbye, or when she was refusing to say goodbye to her parents, but she was refusing to look at anyone but her parents, and they wouldn't know those eyes, because they would have never seen them.

"It's fine, Troy. The purple sheets are fine." She kept her eyes on Temperance as she put the pillow on the bed.

"I can make my own bed. I'm not a child." Looking over at Troy, she smiled at him. "Can I have a minute with my sister?"

Troy smiled, nodding his head. "Yeah, of course."

Gabriella looked up at Temperance and then over at Troy who leaned in and pressed his lips to her forehead. "I'll be in the bedroom with Tori. Take your time."

She blinked her eyes a couple times, nodding slowly.

"Te quiero," he whispered, giving her arm a soft squeeze as stepped away from her and left the two of them alone in the room together.

Gabriella pulled the comforter up on the bed and Temperance sat down on it, smiling up at her sister, patting the bed. "Sentarse."

Gabriella inhaled softly, letting it go slowly before sitting down on the other side of the bed and looking at her sister. She looked so much like her. How her parents ever kept her from her, she would never know. But she had kept Tori from Troy, so she wasn't anyone to question her parents at all. She had no right, no matter what her parents did to her.

"I'm sorry. What our parents did here tonight has nothing to do with us."

Gabi nodded, smiling across the bed at her. "No, it doesn't. I just want you to be happy while you're here. That's all. We can get you a different color of sheets if you need. I do have a lot of shades of," she smiled brightly, "purple around here. Lilac is my favorite color. Lavender. Amethyst. Periwinkle."

Tempe curled her knee up on the bed under her, leaning back just a little bit. "Isn't it easier just to say purple?"

Gabriella shook her head. "No, because I really don't just like the color purple. I really don't like the plain color purple. I like the lighter shades, and the variations of the color."

Temperance shook her head, raising her eyes slightly. "Wow! You can't just say you like purple, can you?"

Gabriella laughed slightly, looking down at one of her favorite comforters. "No, not really."

Temperance nodded her head, looking to the side of the bed. "Ok..." She looked back at her older sister, smiling a little deviously. "So that Troy guy... He's kinda cute."

Gabriella looked back up at her sister, her eyes widening slightly, looking over at the door and back at her sister. "¿Que? Troy?"

Tempe smirked. "Yeah, Mr. Tall dark and stormy sea blue eyes." She winked at her big sister. "What's that like?"

Gabriella blinked, shifting slightly on the bed. "What's what like?" She wasn't for a second going to believe that her sister was asking what sex was like with her boyfriend.

"Oh, everything! Don't spare any detail, sis!"

Gabriella's eyes widened as she stood up off the bed. "Ummm, maybe we should get some sleep, Temperance. We've had a pretty emotional evening... day... I think we should just say good night... Talk about things tomorrow. Get you set up in a school. Or maybe I can take you to your other school until we figure out what we're doing around here." She nodded, walking toward the door, trying to clear her head. "That might be a better idea. Maybe the fewer things we change for you the better. So... I'll talk to you in the morning. You just … sleep well, and I'll see you tomorrow. Buenos noches."

Temperance tried not to laugh... at least not too much as her sister practically ran screaming for the hills. "Good night, big sister! Have fun!" She shook her head, looking around the room that was completely too sporty for her. But it wouldn't be for long.

Gabriella walked into the bedroom she shared with Troy and now with her daughter, shutting the door behind her. "Jesucristo, T! I cannot believe what she just said to me!"

Troy looked up from where he was watching Tori play her DS, taking a deep breath, refraining from the smile that he would have played across his lips had it been Chad who had just said those words. "If it was anything like what she said to me, yeah, I can."

Gabriella walked across the room and crawled up on the bed, snuggling in up under his arm. "Tell me I wasn't that … vulgar in high school..."

Troy kissed the top of her head, pulling her closer to him. "She hit on me in the on the stairs," he whispered in her ear, not wanting Tori to hear him.

Gabriella looked up at him, her eyes wide as possible. "What is her deal?! Does she not have any decency?"

Troy smiled softly down at her. "Don't you worry. I only have eyes for one Montez hermana. She's the mother of my child. Wearing my ring. Sitting right beside me. Everything is as it should be."

Bri blushed, lifting her face up toward his, licking her lips softly as he leaned forward to kiss them softly. "Te quiero, Lily."

She smiled, whispering against his lips. "Te quiero, mi amore."

Troy groaned slightly with Tori by his side. He couldn't make love to her here in the bed now, but they did have a bathroom with a shower and a door that could lock. Troy pulled back slightly, looking at the bathroom door and back at Bri.

"Shower?"

She noticed the gleam in his eyes and started to blush. "T..."

He winked at her. "Por la bebé..." he whispered, sliding his hand over her stomach.

She wasn't pregnant yet, but they didn't give up an opportunity to try to change that. Bri bit her lip, nodding slowly.

"Sí..."

Why she couldn't say no was beyond her, but she needed him badly. She slid up off the bed and walked toward the bathroom as Troy turned to Tori. "Hey, Princess, Mama and Daddy are going to go take a shower. You go ahead and continue playing your game. Listen to some music on the radio if you want to. Play some CDs. Turn it up if you want. Don't worry about the volume."

Tori looked up at her daddy. "Are you two going to have sex?"

Troy stared down at his daughter for a moment. He was sure now that this bold nature was a family trait. "Why are you always so interested in your mama and me having sex?"

She shrugged her shoulders. "No sé."

Troy nodded, running his fingers through his daughter's hair. "Riiight. Mama and I are just going in to the shower to … work on trying to have another baby. You alright with that?"

Tori looked back at her DS. "In other words, you're going to have sex. I'm nine. I'm not supid."

Troy cleared his throat. "No, you're not, this just isn't a conversation I expected to be having with my daughter until she was at sixteen, maybe thirty."

Tori smiled back at him, exposing her pearly whites. "I'm a quick one, Daddy!"

Troy nodded his head, knowing full well the type of girl she was growing up to be. "Yes you are, Princess! Yes you are." He kissed her head quickly before sliding off the bed and following Gabriella into the bathroom, trying to push all the nightmares of being a father to a girl out of his head.

Gabriella turned to see Troy stepping into the shower, smiling at him. She lifted her arms to wrap them around his neck as he wrapped his arms around her waist, pulling her against his tight body. She gasped softly, feeling him already hard against her.

"Like that?" he asked, hearing her gasp.

She nodded her head softly. "Sí, T. Muchisimo."

She pulled her body up against his, her naked breasts rubbing up against his naked chest as he wrapped his arms around her waist, pulling her closer to him, lifting her off the ground. She wrapped her legs around his waist, pressing her lips tightly against his, kissing him deeply. He gripped her ass, groaning into mouth. She made a soft sound as her back hit the wall and he smiled up at her.

"Lo siento, Lily," he whispered, looking up into her chocolate eyes.

She smiled down at him, smoothing down his wet hair. "Está bien, T," she whispered, licking at his lips playfully. "Está muy bien," she giggled, pushing him away slightly and falling back against the wall herself.

He smiled up at her, shaking his head. "You're so beautiful, baby." He was always so amazing with her when they made love, she knew he always would be.

"I love you, Troy," she moaned beside his ear, letting her breasts slide more against his chest. He grunted, feeling his cock grow more under her dripping wet pussy. He loved making love to her in the shower. She wasn't just wet from her own juices. She was wet from the shower as well and that turned him on even more. Sliding into her was going to be even easier and that made him harder.

She was aching for him by the time he actually slid inside of her. She gasped out, arching her back to him, sending him deeper inside of her. "Sí," she moaned out breathlessly from her lips.

He smiled, leaning down, taking one of her nipples into her mouth. "Lily," he groaned against her breast, sucking more into his mouth. She pulled back slightly, looking into his eyes, moving up and then back down onto his cock, whimpering slightly.

He gripped her ass more, helping her move more on top of him. "You feel so good, baby."

Gabriella closed her eyes, letting her head fall back against the shower wall. The water splashed in her face, but she didn't care. Breathing in deeply, she pulled him tightly against her.

"Oh, T."

She breathed in deeper, her breasts moving more against his chest, her nipples brushing against him. Troy groaned, closing his eyes, pushing harder up into her. He could feel her walls gripping around his cock and he knew she was about ready to cum. Closing his eyes, he felt his balls tighten up and it was all over for him as well. His release came deep within her with one more thrust hard into her as she grabbed onto his shoulders tighter, pulling him tighter to her so she could kiss him again, letting her moans escape into his mouth. Troy let his groan escape into her mouth as well as he held onto her, leaning against her slightly as he let everything he had release into her. Pulling back and breathing heavily, he looked into her eyes, smiling brightly.

"I love you, Lily."

She smiled at him, running her fingers through his hair. "I love you, T. I love you so much!"

He leaned in, pressing his lips to hers again, kissing her sweetly. "Por siempre."

She smiled at him gently, whispering in return, "Por siempre."

He stepped back slightly, letting her down to her feet. She took a deep breath, looking up at him.

"I haven't told you how proud I am of you that you've learned all of that Spanish, T. You're so amazing."

He picked up the shampoo, pouring some out on her head. "I did it for you, babe. I can do anything for you."

She smiled, turning her head down slightly, hiding the blush that spread across her cheeks.

"Don't hide. It's the truth."

She looked up at him as he lathered the soap into her hair. "I know. It's just after everything I've done, I still can't believe how forgiving you are."

He stopped lathering her hair, taking her head in his hands, lifting her head up so she was looking at him. "I love you." He said looking straight into her eyes. "I. LOVE. YOU. Ok? Never forget that. And because I love you, there's nothing I can't forgive you for."

She looked up at him a little timidly. "Are you sure?"

He smiled down at her softly. "I'm sure. What about you? Couldn't you forgive me?"

She smiled back up at him, nodding. "I know I could."

He had been in a relationship with Sharpay after all. She had been her best friend and that was easily forgivable. "But I kept Tori from you for ten years, and I didn't even tell you about her as soon as I saw you after all those years."

Troy leaned down closer to her, his eyes inches from hers. "Lily, baby. I forgive you. I forgave you. I haven't said it, I know, and I'm sorry. But I do. I love you and I forgive you."

Gabriella nodded, tears in her eyes, looking into his eyes.

He pulled her head the rest of the distance to his, kissing her softly and briefly before whispering against her lips, "I forgive you, baby."

That was all she needed to hear. It didn't matter what had happened between them. It didn't matter all the space and time between them. It didn't matter what had happened since they had gotten back together. He had said he forgave her and it made things all better. They were in love and they had a family together that was growing by the minute. They had a daughter and they were now raising her sister they had just found out about. With any luck they would be having a baby soon.

She'd been to see her gynecologist and everything was well with physically so they could be getting pregnant at any time, so they weren't going to give up an opportunity to make love. It would be difficult with Tori in their bed, but they'd find moments like this where they could do it in the shower or something like this. They would have to find out a better solution though, probably buying a new place. She'd lived here for more than six years and it was going to be hard for her to move, but if it was for her family, she could do anything.

By the time they finished their shower and got back to the bedroom, Tori was asleep, so they didn't have to worry about asking her to turn away or anything. They got dressed and crawled into bed on either side of her. Troy smiled over the top of Tori' head, kissing her forehead softly.

"So, you think we have five people living in this house yet?"

Gabriella giggled slightly at him, shaking her head. "I don't know, T."

Troy reached over Tori's tiny body, placing his hand on Lily's stomach, rubbing it softly. "I hope so."

Lily placed her hand on his, whispering, "Me too."

They both leaned over Tori's head, pressing their lips together, whispering to each other, "Buenos noches."
