Falling for my boss.
Gabriella got out of Troy's car and waited for him as he got out of it...he seemed pretty upset which was weird, he was fine moments ago. Gabriella was so nervous...what if Troy wanted to get rid of her...what if he didnt want her as his secretary? what would she do? she loved her job and she did it pretty well, or so she thought, she started to freak out.
Then Troy got next her with an upset expression.
"i dont know about yours but in my world ladies wait for the guy to open the door for them" he said.
She giggled "really? well your world is really old then" she said.
"my world has class" he replied and walked her inside the restaurant where the maitre got a private table for two. Troy helped her seat down and she looked at the menu. A waiter brought a bottle of wine and left it on the table.
"why are we here Troy?" she said.
"uh...to eat a nice lunch" he replied.
"i dont mean that, i..."
The waiter came back to take their orders. Troy let Gabriella order first and after she did he asked for the same...the waiter left and Troy took a sip of his glass of wine.
she sighed "Troy...you wanted to tell me something"
"you're not patient are you?" he asked.
"no"
It was his turn to sigh. "ok" he said.
Gabriella waited for him to say something else but he was quiet...like picking the right words to say. He looked into her eyes and relaxed.
"you remember tonights party right?"
"yes" she said..of course she remembered. "its Van Dyne's party"
"well...remember i broke up with Sharpay and Taylor" he said.
"i broke up with Taylor" she replied.
"yes...well anyways...i dont have a date for tonight"
"you want me to get you a date?" she couldnt believe the thing he was asking.
"no...not like that"
"then what do you mean cuz i dont understand" she said. "you lost me"
"Gabriella focus ok!" he said exasperated.
She nodded and he felt like he wanted to slap her...was she really that innocent?
"I...want you to be my date" he said.
Gabriella kept the same expression as moments before...like if it was frozen on her face. She wanted to laugh because it had to be joke...although it wasnt funny at all. He wanted her to be WHAT? Troy Bolton wanted her as his...date? ok maybe she heard wrong.
"what?" she asked. She looked at him like if he was speaking chinese instead of english.
"i want you to be my date...tonight" he said.
"huh?"
He groaned "Gabriella...FOCUS!"
"i'm sorry its just...why me?"
"i have my reasons" he said.
"can you at least tell me one"
"nope" he said.
"its just i dont get it...i'm just your secretary"
He got closer to her.
"trust me...you're much more than that" he said and smiled.
Gabriella felt like every inch of her system crashed when he said that...and that smile...she could stare at that smile forever. The waited walked over to them with the food, just then they noticed they were getting closer to eachother over the table...Gabriella sat up and Troy did the same, they were looking into eachothers eyes and when they waiter left, they had lunch in silence.
And it was still the same on their way back to the office...this time she waited until Troy opened the door for her, she thanked him and started to walk inside the building...he grabbed her arm and looked at her.
"so...yes or no?" he asked.
Gabriella felt weird with that intense look on her. She gave in.
"yeah"
He smiled.
"good...i'll pick you up at 7...and call a taxi...i'm giving you the rest of the day off."
...
Gabriella had 5 years working for Troy and she never had 1 day off...she went shopping to look for a great dress...the one she already had was pretty...but not pretty enough to be Boltons date, she had to be beautiful..not pretty, so when she found a one shoulder, really tight red dress she decided to buy it. It said Troy Bolton everywhere and it would fit her well, she wasnt that thin but she had some nice curves the dress would help her accentuate those curves. She felt satisfied when she left the store.
Hours Later
Gabriella was in her house getting ready...she was finishing her make up. When she looked into the mirror she couldnt believe that beauty was actually her...she looked so Kim Kardashian and she loved it. The doorbell rang moments later and she went to open the door. She was so excited and when she saw Troys expression she knew it was worth the effort.
Troy was out of breath...he knew she was gonna be beautiful...but that gorgeous beauty he had in front of him wasnt something he could imagine, he felt so happy he asked her to be his date.
"i can see you used the afternoon i gave you" he said nodding.
"is it fine...because i have something more simple i..."
"no no no, thats fine..." he smirked. "really"
Troy had to do a big effort to keep his hand down. He smiled bigger...under that gorgeous red dress he could still see his sweet and lovely secretary. She closed the door behind her and they walked to Troys Rolls Royce, that was Gabriellas favorite out of the 7 cars Troy had. When they arrived, Troy walked with her to the door...he had an arm wrapped tightly around her waist. She looked at him, he was smiling...it looked like he was really excited, he waited a lot for his contract with Van Dyne to be official. Before walking inside the room he took a time to fix his tux.
"are you excited?" she asked.
He took a deep breath.
"yeah" he replied.
"this contract is really important so...enjoy it!" she said.
He looked at her...yeah he was excited...but it had nothing to do with Van Dyne, he had other reasons to be excited...she was one of them. He smiled at her and grabbed her waist one more time before walking inside the huge room. Everybody was there...important people, celebrities...everyone. Troy smiled bigger and waved at James Van Dyne, the reason they were there. James had a glass in one hand and was holding a blonde model with the other so he smiled and kept talking. Troy looked down at Gabriella.
"want something to drink?" he asked.
"yeah" she smiled.
"stay here...i'll be back" he replied and left.
Gabriella watched him as he left to the bar...he was so hot! it was like a dream to be there as his date, it made her wonder if he would ask her to go home with him...maybe not because that would ruin their work relationship, but she wanted so bad to be with him...she loved him so much that she would take anything he could give her, thats why she was standing there with that gorgeous red dress.
Troy came back after a while and he gave her a glass, then he wrapped his arm around her and walked her to sit down somewhere, where they could just chat.
...
Hours later Troy and Gabriella were still sitting in a small spot away from the crowd, smiling and talking...suddenly a blonde girl walked over to them.
"...Mr Van Dyne is waiting for you in his studio." she said.
He looked at Gabriella.
"i'll go see what he wants then we can leave"
"ok" she smiled "i'll go to the restroom."
And they did...Gabriella hated to be away from Troy, she felt incomplete and insecure, she just hated it. Gabriella walked inside the restroom. In one night she saw a side of Troy Bolton she never met before...he was sweet and caring, and she just loved him even more. When she walked outside the restroom she found a surprise.
David
David was Gabriellas boyfriend like 2 years ago...he cheated on her and she broke up with him...she wasnt that mad cause she was in love with Troy but he was the last person she actually wanted to see.
"well...you look beautiul Gabby" he said.
"whatever" she said and tried to walk past him, he didnt let her.
"you never dressed like that for me? oh i forgot...you're in love with your boss...by the way where is he?" he asked...he was drunk.
"its not of your business" she said.
"you are my business"
"stay away from me David" she said.
He grabbed her arm.
"sorry" he said.
...
"no i'm sorry" another voice said. Gabriella looked up...it was Troy! thank God.
Troy punched the guy so hard that she felt sorry for him when he was on the ground. Troy grabbed Gabriellas hand and pulled her away.
"are you ok?" he asked.
"yeah...i am" she said.
"i want to tell you something...and i dont think i can keep it any longer"
"what is it...did Van Dyne said he wanted to cancel?" she asked.
"no! it has nothing to do with work...its about us"
"about us us?" she asked.
"yeah" he said.
Gabriella was confused on what he wanted to say.
"theres a reason why i broke up with Sharpay and Taylor and asked you to be my date"
"why"
"because i love you" he said.
Gabriellas world took a drastic change.
"you what"
"maybe you dont feel the same...but having you by my side these years just made me realize how important you are for me and..."
He couldnt finish, Gabriella threw her arms around his neck and huged him tight, he laughed and huged her back, she kissed his cheak.
"i love you too"
That was everything he needed, he grabbed her face between his hands and kissed her...he kissed her the way he wanted to for so long...with passion. He pulled back after a while...
"lets go" he said and she nodded.
On their way out the blonde girl walked over to talk to Troy again.
"Mr Van Dyne wants to know if you want to share a drink with him"
"tell him..i'll call him later...got something important to do now"
He started walking again with his hand holding Gabriellas...that was sure gonna be a great night.
