Chapter 3: A different side
Gabriella's POV
Sometimes I wish I didn't exist, but honestly I'm not the kind of person to harm myself. I just cry and get it out. I just looked at the ceiling to my bedroom. I wanted him out, but not because of what he does with girls. I don't care about that. It's the way he acts that makes me want to stay away from him.
He acts like Ty in almost every way and it makes me sad just thinking about it. Maybe I'll tell you who Ty is one of the days, but not today. Not today...today I have to deal with Troy...
"Gabriella! Dinners ready!" I heard Alex yell from downstairs. I looked at the time and saw I had been up here for hours. I sighed and got up and went down the stairs not wanting to see Troy or anyone in this case. I walked into the kitchen to see dad and my brothers talking to Troy. I just stayed silent and got my food and went to the table.
"Hey Gabs. Do you know that Troy is a amazing basketball player?" Alex asked. I just shook my head and started eating. No one really noticed until Jacob came in to the kitchen. He immediately grabbed his food and sat next to me. "Whats wrong baby sis." He said. "It's Troy..." I tried not to tear up. "He didn't do anything to you did he?" His body got tense. "No. He reminds me him. I wanted to be rid of him." A tear fell from my eye. Jacob was the only person who knew about Ty.
"Hey forget about him okay? I can see the similarities, but Ty is gone and out of your life. I promise." I broke out in tears. "Jacob I can't do it. Not again." All the guys looked at Jacob and I, but I honestly just kept crying. "Hey it's okay it won't happen again." I just nodded.
"You okay?" I looked to see Troy had asked that. I could see his eyes full of worry. Something I've never seen from him yet. I just nodded.
Jacob covered for me. "She was being picked on at school." he said. Troy was the first one to speak. "If someones giving you a hard time Gabriella then don't be afraid to come to me about it. I'll set them straight. Okay?" I just nodded and looked at my brothers.
They looked like they were the awkward ones in the room. They eventually went to play basketball with Troy.
I was watching TV with the "baby" when Troy came in and sat down next to me. I looked at him and he looked at me. He leaned in and kissed me. My heart skipped a beat and my body got really hot. He pulled away before things went further. "T-That shouldn't have happened." I said.
I wanted run out of the room because I felt so humiliated. "Hey I'm sorry. I didn't know what I was doing." He said. "But I want to tell you something. I've had feelings for you since you've got here. There not like the girls I've been with. These feelings are stronger and deeper. I like you. A lot. Can we retry this?" I was in near tears when he finished. I didn't even know what I was doing all I know next is that I'm kissing Troy.

"We can try and date, but you'll have to settle down and be with only me." I said. He nodded and kissed me again. I did realize this was all soon. And I knew there were gonna be problems soon. I didn't know how bad they were gonna be so soon.
