Chapter 6

The next day Gabriella had at least checked about 30 houses online. She was currently on the phone with her Realtor who stated they had found the ideal place for her to move in. Gabriella smiled widely as the woman on the other line explained in full details Gabriella's soon to be home.

"Oh My Goodness! It sounds amazing Lisa! Can we check it out today? Because I'm going to be picking up my belongings from Austin's this afternoon." Gabriella asked.

"Well yes I believe we can meet me in 20 minutes at Ivan Hill Terrace and you can follow me to where the house is located." Lisa stated threw the phone.

"No problem. Thank you so much Lisa once again!" Gabriella said cheerfully.

"My pleasure Miss Montez now see you in 20 minutes." Lisa said hanging up the line.

Gabriella clapped her hands together excitedly and jumped out of the chair from the island.

"Sharpay!" She yelled.

"In my room!" Sharpay yelled back responding.

Gabriella smiled making her way up to Sharpay's bedroom. "Oh my gosh! I have the greatest news!"

Sharpay turned to Gabriella from looking at her closet smiling. "What?"

"I think I might have a house!" Gabriella squealed.

Sharpay smiled pulling her into a tight hug. "That's great Gabs! I'm so happy for you!"

Gabriella hugged her friend back. "Thank you it's such a great feeling to know that I'm going to be on my own. Doing this for me."

Sharpay grinned. "This is a big step. I'm so proud of you!"

She smiled widely back at the blonde. "I have to start getting ready I'm suppose to meet Lisa in 20 minutes so I'll call you once I make a decision and let you know."

Sharpay nodded. "Okay sounds good doll."

Gabriella began making her way to the guest room she was staying in a began getting ready to meet up with Lisa. She took a shower refreshing up and then walked back into the bedroom where she had fresh clothes laying out on the bed for her. She put on a pair of ripped blue skinny jeans and a white v-cut shirt. She wore her beige Christian Louboutin pumps with a beige cardigan. She pulled her long raven locks back into a pony tail. She began applying light make up. Once she was pleased with her appearance she grabbed her purse and shades, leaving Sharpay's house and heading to Ivan Hill Terrace.


Troy parked his car in his brothers driveway and hopped out. He wiped the sweating beads that were trickling down his forehead as he made his way inside the house. Troy was feeling rather good today. He woke up in a good mood, then had a good breakfast before going to work out and play some ball. All the stress and apprehension had faded away. He was beginning to feel like himself again. Troy walked into the kitchen to retrieve a bottle of water from the freezer.

"Hey man." Austin walked in the kitchen.

"Hey bro. What time is your flight leaving?" Troy asked.

Austin took a look at his watch before answering Troy's question. "In about 2 hours. I have to stop by my office before I go though so I'll be out the house soon."

Troy nodded while taking another gulp at the cold water.

"You do remember Gabriella is coming over to get her things?" Austin asked his brother.

Troy nodded once again. "Yeah I remember."

Austin nodded. "It's crazy how I'm not with her anymore. It feels wierd not having her around the house you know.."

Troy looked at his brother. "Yeah.."

"But I'm gonna go finish getting my things together so I'll let you know when I'm about to head out." Austin stated before walking out of the kitchen

"Ok.." Troy called out.


Gabriella finally reached Ivan Hill Terrace and she saw Lisa. She waved from her car and Lisa waved back before driving up the hill that led to the new home Gabriella was anxious to see. A minute or so later Lisa's car came to a stop. Lisa got out and Gabriella followed turning off her ignition. Gabriella took the time to glance up at the house she smiled once she had seen a glimpse of it.

"Come on there's more too see." Lisa smiled grabbing Gabriella's arm softly gesturing here to the gate.

Gabriella step up a few steps that led to a small gate. She opened the gate holding it for Lisa and then followed Lisa up some more steps that led to a sitting area and on the right you took a couple of steps that led you to the front door of the house it reminded her of her childhood how her family lived in a Spanish style home in Arizona. She admired the outside. The house wasn't huge but it wasn't small. It was Spanish style which Gabriella liked because of the house, looking at the long and wide windows that complimented the house very well. Finally Lisa brought her inside and she immediately fell in love. The wooden floors were a dark Cherokee wood through out the hall, lounge, and dinning area of the house. She walked into the lounge taking a couple of steps down and fell in love with the setting. The couches were white with red pillows. The small rectangular table in the middle was red. Her favorite color. There was a fire place, and a balcony that led out to the view of the city. She admired the lightening of the room and then moved onto the dining area and smiled seeing a dining table already placed there.

"Does the furniture come with the house?" she asked.

Lisa nodded. "Yes only if you want it."

"Well I so far like the lounge set up and the dining area is very nice as well." She smiled.

"There's more." Lisa smiled.

Lisa took Gabriella throughout the whole entire house and Gabriella fell in love with every bit of house had three bedrooms and three baths. It was in total 2,430 square feet. The master bed room was comfy and cozy. It had already supplied a queen size bed. Gabriella wasn't too sure about that but she will see. Rather than that she was completely fond with house and how the decorator had decorated it. Lisa took her to the kitchen again taking out papers.

"So do you like it?" Lisa asked smiling.

"Yes I love it. How much are we working with here?" Gabriella asked.

"Well, I tried to stay within the 1 million range like you asked. But this house is 1.15 million." Lisa looked at Gabriella.

Gabriella nodded and took a deep breathe before finalizing her decision. "I'm going to take it."

Lisa beamed taking out a pen. "And you want to keep some of the furniture right?" She asked.

"Yes, I'll probably buy myself my own bed though but the rest of furniture can stay." Gabriella answered.

"Sounds perfect. Now just sign a couple of these papers here stating that you are now owner of the house and are willing to keep the furniture." Lisa handed Gabriella the papers.

Gabriella read and signed everything she had to sign and once she was done Lisa handed Gabriella the keys. Gabriella hugged Lisa once more thanking her. And then reached for her cell phone dialing Sharpay's number.

"Sharpay speaking." the blonde answer.

"I got the house!" Gabriella squealed.

"Thats amazing girlie! Call me when you're at Austin's so I can drive over there and help you." Sharpay said.

"Okay I will." And Gabriella hung up the phone.

She walked up the stairs into her new bedroom, she smiled and walked over to closet. She had to admit she was a nice closet. Once she examined the closet she walked over to the queen sized bed and sat down bouncing up and down slightly to feel if it was comfy. It was pretty comfy but Gabriella wanted to be cautious. So she decided she'll just buy her own. She got up off the bed and walked down the stairs gathering her purse and cell phone before heading out the door. She thought that before she heads over to get her stuff from Austins she would buy a new bed and have it shipped over to her house by the evening.


"Troy I'm leaving man, I'll see you in two days." Austin shouted from the front door.

Troy came half way down the stairs waving at his brother. "Bye man have a safe flight."

And with that Austin was out the door. Troy walked back upstairs and into his room. He glanced at the clock and realized Gabriella should be coming soon. He smiled at the thought of her, he couldn't wait to see the beautiful latina again. He decided he was going to take a shower and get ready before her arrival.

Gabriella laid on another bed debating if this one was more comfortable than the previous one she just laid on.

"Ehh I don't like this one too much." She stated rising off the queen sized bed.

"Try this one." The man led her to another queen sized bed.

Gabriella laid on this one and immediately felt comfortable, she sighed in relief happy that she had finally found the one.

"This is the one." She smiled getting off of the bed.

The man gave her a smile back. "Good. I'm going to need you to sign a couple of things and then give me your address and a time you would like it delivered.

Gabriella filled out some papers, paying off the her new bed and giving the man her address. Once that was all done she was content and now ready to head over to Austin's.


Gabriella was happy that there hadn't been no traffic from the matress place to Austin's she arrived within 10 minutes. She parked her car behind Troy's within the driveway and hopped out pulling her purse along with her. She walked to the front door ringing the door bell and stood waiting. She waited for Troy to open the door but he hadn't. Gabriella placed her hand on the knob turning it realizing that the door was unlocked. She walked into the once familar house and shut the door closed.

"Troy?" she called out.

And she got no answer. She arched an eyebrow and made her way upstairs. She opened the master bedroom seeing noone was in there. She shut the door and walked over to Troy's room to see it cracked opened.

"Troy?" She said, pushing the door wide open. She saw that no one was present in the room. She walked inside glancing around seeing his belongings and luggage still here but there was no Troy. She knew it was wrong but, she began snooping around his draws, she smiled at his choices in underwear and then saw all his fitted t-shirts she loved that complimented his torso structure well. She picked up one of his bottles of colon and began sniffing it. She smiled softly at the amazing smell. But suddenly that smiled faded as she saw a door open and a naked dampt Troy walking out. Her eyes must have been as big as the moon at the sight she was seeing. The colon bottle that was once in her hand fell onto the floor. Her wide eyes fell upon his perfect body his chest, abs, and then his manhood.

Troy on the other hand was too shock to even move. Seeing Gabriella in his room wandering through his belongings and staring intently at his semi-hard member was intriging. He finally swallowed down the slavia that he had formed in his mouth and grabbed the towel that he had drived himself off with, covering his length.

"Um.." He choked out.

Gabriella finally snapped a hand across her eyes. "I'm sorry." she said quickly walking out of the room.

Troy scratched the back of his head with his other hand. "It's...fine." Troy sighed and shut the door beginning to dress himself. Once he was done dressed he picked up the bottle of colon Gabriella had dropped, he began wondering what was she doing in his room and with this bottle. He took a deep breathe spraying himself with the colon before slipping his vans on his feet and stepping out of his room. He walked down the steps to see Gabriella in the kitchen pouring herself something to drink.

She turned her head hearing Troy entering the kitchen. "I'm really sorry Troy... I- I had no business being up there in your room.. and then just staring at you.." she stammered before taking a sip of her wine.

Troy held up a hand. "It's ok.. it really is." he smiled slightly.

Gabriella nodded before taking another sip. "Um.. do you want some?"

Troy shook his head and chuckled lightly. "Not really much of a wine guy, I'm more into bear."

Gabriella nodded and smiled alittle. "So I.. um got a new house."

Troy's eyes lighten up as he took a seat on a chair near the island. "Really? That's great Brie."

Gabriella's smile widened up a bit once he called her Brie. "Yeah it is. You'll get to see it when we move my stuff over there."

Troy nodded smiling. "Sounds good I can't wait."

Gabriella stood staring at him with a smile on her face. He stared back with this cheesy smile played across his lips. "You look beautiful today." he said softly.

Gabriella's eyes flickered down, as pink flushed her cheeks. "You always do this to me." She giggled softly.

Troy chuckled bring up his hands. "I'm sorry! It's not my intentions I'm just telling you the truth."

Gabriella glared at him before taking another sip of her wine. "Stop it because it makes me go all red."

Troy chuckled. "So we're starting the party early?" He asked jokingly at her wine.

Gabriella laughed nervously. "Not exactly. After seeing you naked, I needed a glass of wine."

"Gabi!" Sharpay's voice called out from the front door.

"In the kitchen!" Gabriella responded.

Sharpay's heels clicked the wooden floor until they came to a stop and the blonde entered the kitchen smiling widely at the two. "Hey there Troy!"

Troy chuckled smiling at Sharpay. "Hey Shar."

"So what are you two up too?" She grinned before grabing Gabriella's drinking and taking a sip.

Gabriella glared at Sharpay. "Nothing just talking. Now can I have my drink back."

Troy looked down at Sharpay's heels and then Gabriella's. "I like how you two are wearing heels to move belongings up and down stairs." Troy spoke with an amusment expression covering his face.

"You're the one who's gonna be doing most of the moving Troy." Sharpay smirked. "We're just gonna stand here and look pretty."

"Oh great." Troy rolled his eyes laughing.

Gabriella smiled. "We'll come on guys lets get to work."


About an hour later Troy, Gabriella, and Sharpay moved all of Gabriella's belongings out of Austin's house. They placed the last of her things into each other their cars. Sharpay had brought already in her car Gabriella's two luggages that were at her house, so that she had everything she needed. Gabriella was the first to take off with Troy and Sharpay following behind her. Within 15 minutes of driving they finally arrived to Gabriella's new house seeing the mattress men just arriving as well. Gabriella pulled into her new garage while Troy and Sharpay parked infront of Gabriella's home. Gabriella told the men where she wanted her mattress, Troy grabbed the heavy things bring it into Gabriella's house and setting it where she wanted it. Once everything was put away Gabriella took off her heels in exhaustion and fell on the couch.

"My feet are killing me." She whined.

Troy walked down her staircase helping the delivers bringing down the mattress Gabriella didn't want. Once the men had left Troy walked back into the lounge where Gabriella was laid out on the couch.

"Tired?" He asked chuckling.

"Just a bit.. My feet just hurt." she smiled softly.

Troy took a seat at the end of the couch where Gabriella's feet were and began massaging them with his hands. He watched as her expression was filled with contentment. She sighed softly as he worked magic on her feet.

"That feels so good." She groaned lowly.

Troy shot her a smile and continued massaging them.

Sharpay walked into the lounge looking at the duo and smirking. "We'll Gabs I'm gonna head home. I put clean sheets over your bed for you."

Gabriella smiled pulling her feet away from Troy and rising to hug Shar. "Thank you so much. You're an amazing friend."

Sharpay hugged her back. "Anytime. So call me tomorrow okay?"

Gabriella pulled away and nodded. "Will do, Love you."

Sharpay smiled. "Love you too bff." She turned to Troy and gave him a small hug. "Bye Troy."

"Bye Shar." He smiled.

Sharpay walked out of the house waving at the duo before shutting the front door. Troy lifted himself off the sofa and scratched the back of his head.

"I think I should get going too." He said.

Gabriella looked at him and bit her bottom lip softly. "You can stay alittle longer... I- I mean if you want."

Troy let a smile fall upon his thin lips. "I'd love to."

Gabriella grinned. "Are you hungry? I haven't really done any food shopping but we can order out.."

Troy nodded smiling. "Yeah that would be fine."

"Pizza?" She asked getting her cellphone.

"Sounds delicious." he grinned.

Gabriella ordered one pizza pie for her and Troy. As they waited for their food to arrive they began talking about everything. Asking eachother personal questions about their lives before they had met one another.

"I remember the day I met you." Troy chuckled.

"Me too. I thought you were like stuck up." Gabriella giggled.

Troy gasped acting like he was hurt. "Me stuck up? Never!"

Gabriella giggled. "Yeah you're definitely not stuck up. Your brother must have mistaken himself for you.."

Troy smiled at her. "The day you were introduced to me, I was stunned at how gorgeous you were... I actually felt a bit of envy towards my brother.."

Gabriella's cheeks turned rose red in a matter of seconds. "Troy!"

He laughed. "No Brie I'm serious. I couldn't understand how my brother had gotten so lucky. I wish I would of met you before he did.."

Gabriella looked down at her fingers, fiddling with them. "I kind of.. wish I would have met you first before I met him..." she said softly before rising those chocolaty orbs at his baby blue ones.

Troy looked back into her eyes. "I wished the same thing."

Gabriella bit her lips softly watching as Troy began to lean in, she shut her eyes leaning up a bit as she felt the warmth of his breath just inches away from her soft lips. She wondered for weeks how his lips tasted, and now this was the moment when she was about to find out. She anticipated waiting for his lips to connect onto her own until the doorbell rang causing them both to open their eyes and realize how close their faces were. Gabriella blushed rising from her seat as she walked to the front door. She paid off the pizza man and brought the pizza along with the soda that came with the order into the lounge. She opened the pizza box letting Troy grab his own slice as she grabbed her own. They ate in silence for awhile until Troy saw a piece of sauce running down the side of Gabriella's lip. He lifted his thumb and wiped it off causing her to turn and look at him. As he wipped it off Gabriella turned her face slightly taking her lips and placing them over his thumb, licking the sauce that was now on his thumb off. Troy's breath hitched as he felt the warmth of her mouth and the softness of her tongue surrounding his finger. He bit his lip feeling himself beginning to arouse. She let her lips slide off of his thumb as she looked into his eyes seeing the expression of desire form over them. Troy put down his pizza and grabbed Gabriella's heart shaped face carefully into his hands before placing a soft kiss full of desire and passion upon her lips. Gabriella put her pizza down moving closer to Troy and letting his tongue explore the depths of her mouth as she explored his. Gabriella felt these amazing feelings fly through her entire body, it was like electricity had been sparking within her. The feeling of his lips against hers was unexplainable. She couldn't think of words to describe what they were doing to her. Moments after their tongues felt one anothers Troy pulled back slowly trying to catch his breath. Gabriella bit her bottom lip with her eyes still closed as her chest rose and fell heavily. Troy leant his forehead against her small one staring at the beauty. She finally opened her eyes seeing the blue orbs looking down at her.

"That was... wow.." She breathed out, smiling softly.

"You don't know how long I've waited to do that Brie.." He spoke softly.

"You know how wrong of us it is to be doing this right now.." she whispered.

"I don't care." Troy smiled.

She giggled softly. "And frankly neither do I."

After there first breath-taking kiss Troy stood alittle longer as the two finished eating their pizza and chatted up a bit more before Troy left to go home. As Troy drove he couldn't keep this goofy smile off of his face. Her lips against his own felt amazing. He couldn't even begin to describe in words just how amazing it was. Gabriella was special, he knew that and he knew that just because they had kissed didn't mean that they were together now. He knew Gabriella still needed time to be on her own before she could ever be with anyone else. And Troy was willing to wait however long he had to for the raven hair girl. Because it's true... he is absolutely crazy about her.
