A/N: I promise that I will update my other stories later but these two are my favorites right now so they are kinda my priority! Thank you for the reviews! Especially to the person that disagreed with 's behavior. I also don't believe Ms. Montez should have behaved the way she did but when you think one of your closet's friends and the parents of your daughter's boyfriend is calling your dying daughter a slut… I mean I would have called Mrs. Montez a crazy bitch too. Ha! I just figured I should explain her behavior, because I wanted it to be realistic. This chapter is not going to be long and I apologize for that. I do know that there really is some heart defect where your heart is on the other side. When I remember the name, I promise I'll tell you guys. I also feel the lyrics fit this mini chapter perfectly! Thank you all so much for reading! Really! Enjoy!
Chapter 6: Fragments
"I am the lie, living for you so you can hide.
Don't cry."
April 17th, 2010-5 a.m.
"This is the start of something new, and it feels so right to be here with you! Oh! And now, looking in your eyes, I feel in my heart, this is the start of something new."
Troy shot up in the hospital bed, his heart thumping wildly and his sweaty hair matted to his head. In his dream he had been singing, singing with someone, either a girl or a guy with a really really pretty voice. But every time he glanced over at him/her, their image was blurred and unrecognizable.
Troy pressed his thumb and forefinger to his nose to try to relieve some of the pressure from his headache but it didn't help so he laid back down in bed and closed his eyes, and once again fell asleep.
He was talking to a beautiful girl. She looked to be Hispanic; she had dark curly hair, perfect tan skin, and stunning white teeth.
"My name is… My name is… My name is…" She kept saying but Troy could never hear what her name was. He could see her lips moving but he just couldn't hear what she was saying.
Then she was dead. He saw her laying on some floor, her beautiful brown eyes open and unresponsive, and a dark circle of blood was seeping all over her yellow shirt. Her lip gloss covered lips open in a silent scream. But somehow she still looked so beautiful to him. He felt himself falling, falling, falling….
Troy once again jolted up in bed and covered his eyes with his hands. He wondered if he had killed that girl. Was he a murderer?
No, no he couldn't have killed her. There was something about her, that beautiful girl. As he remembered her image, the one the dream had given him when she had tried to tell him her name, Troy's heart began to speed up, his stomach twisted into knots, and he had the urge to smile.
Was he in love with her?

Gabriella had always heard that some coma patients were still able to hear, and if she ever woke up, she would make sure she would contribute to the science field and tell them that it was true.
If she was able to right then, Gabriella would have laughed. Leave it to her to think about science in this situation.
She had heard her mother talking to her the night before, right before the pain started, and she wished her mother was awake so she could sing that Spanish lullaby to her.
Gabriella, in her heart, knew Troy was ok. She just wished that she could see him touch him, kiss him, or just tell him about their baby.
Their baby, the baby that they, together, had made.
Gabriella hoped that the baby was a girl, and she hoped that Troy was happy about it. Right after high school, Gabriella could start working and maybe Troy could join the NBA early. She didn't know how any of that stuff worked, she just wanted to dream happy dreams and have happy thoughts.
Her mother had always told her never to give up and so she wouldn't. Gabriella would figure out how to wake up and she would figure out a way to keep her baby.
A/N: See, that was ridiculously short, I'm so sorry for that, but this is simply a filler chapter, the good stuff is coming up next! I just want to get you all excited. It is sad that Gabriella does not know about the death of her baby, but that will be addressed soon, and oh the name of the thingy where the heart is on the wrong side is called situs inversus. Thank you all for reading. Even though this chapter was tiny I hope it was enjoyed! Love ya! Mwah! *blows kisses*
