Chapter 7
Title: Vienna
Disclaimer: only the plot!
A/N: The Final Chapter is here! Thank you to everyone who has read this, and reviewed. I appreciate it times a million. : )
If I don't say this now I will surely break,
As I'm leaving the one I want to take.
Forgive the urgency but hurry up and wait.
My heart has started to separate.
"Vienna, baby, I have something to tell you," Gabriella softly told her daughter in the most level voice she could have, knowing the events of that day and the fact that her daughter's father was standing right of Vienna, and she didn't even know it.
"What Mommy? Does it have something to do with Mr. Troy?" Vienna asked anxiously.
"Yes it does," Troy answered for Gabriella, noticing her fear.
"What is it? What is it!" Vienna asked her vivid blue eyes flicking over her mothers and her fathers.
"You know how you always ask where daddy is? And I always tell you that one day you'll find out?" she started out slowly, picking her words carefully. Vienna nodded and Gabriella continued, "Well, your daddy was in England, baby. Mr. Troy is your daddy."
Vienna gulped, trying to understand everything, "Mr. Troy is my daddy? That's why he has the same blue eyes?"
"Yeah Vienna, that's why I have the same blue eyes." Troy answered getting lost in the moment.
"Okay, I think I understand," Vienna said in a small voice, then continued a little louder with a smile, "I'm glad you're my daddy Mr. Troy, I wanted you to be anyway."
Troy wrapped his daughter in a hug, and gripped onto Gabriella who was crying softly at the scene.
Oh, oh,
Be my baby.
Oohh.
Oh, oh,
Be my baby.
I'll look after you.
Gabriella was startled back to reality, when the bell rang, signaling the children to come back in from recess. She was surprised she was daydreaming about that day about a year ago still. Whenever she thought about it, she always seemed to get tears in her eyes, and a smile that no one can replace.
"Mommy!" Vienna yelled out going to her second grade classroom.
"Go to class Vienna!" Gabriella yelled jokingly. Vienna just poked her tongue out and kept walking, but not in the direction of her room. Something must be up. Gabriella thought. Someone tugged at her pants, yelling Ms. Montez, and she quickly came back into the classroom. When she arrived in class, all the little girls were giggling, and the boys were saying "ooooh". Gabriella looked to the front of the class, and there was, Troy Bolton, standing with their daughter.
There now, steady love, so few come and don't go.
Will you won't you, be the one I always know?
When I'm losing my control, the city spins around.
You're the only one who knows, you slow it down.
"Troy? Vienna? Whats going on? Why is she out of class? And why are you here? And why is our song playing on the intercom?" Gabriella asked them wildly.
Troy covered his tracks quickly, "Just thought you'd like some mood music, come next door, Vienna called me and said she couldn't find something in her locker, so I came by to help. I mean, I only work next door." Troy worked at East High School, while Gabriella taught kindergarten in the elementary.
Oh, oh,
Be my baby.
Oohh.
Oh, oh,
Be my baby.
I'll look after you.
And I'll look after you.
"Uh, Okay?" Gabriella reluctantly took Troy and Vienna's hands, and told the class to stay still, and their helper would watch them. The family walked over to Vienna's room, where she saw her best friend, and Vienna's teacher Mrs. Danforth teaching.
"Hey Tay, Whats going on? What are you three planning?" Gabriella asked her, feeling left out of what was happening, and a twist in her stomach.
"Nothing, I just couldn't find what Vienna was looking for." Taylor secretly smiled.
"If ever there was a doubt,"
My love she leans into me.
"This most assuredly counts."
She says most assuredly.
Vienna led them over to her locker, she excitingly screeched, "Find it!"
"Find what Vienna?" Gabriella asked exasperated.
"Just find it Mommy," Vienna told her, and kissed her cheek.
Gabriella dropped their hands, as they pushed her towards the locker, she rummaged through it, pushing through her jacket and back pack. Finally her eyes laid upon a tiny black box.
Oh, oh,
Be my baby.
I'll look after you.
After you.
Oh, oh,
Be my baby.
Oohh...
"Oh my gosh, Oh my gosh…" Gabriella drifted off speechless, she turned around to find Troy down on one knee, Vienna propped up on it.
"Ella, I love you, and I know you always wanted to hear a really long drawn out speech, but nothing puts it better than this, I love you more than words could ever produce. Will you marry me?"
It's always have and never hold.
You've begun to feel like home.
What's mine is yours to leave or take.
What's mine is yours to make your own.
Vienna jumped off Troy's knee and watched her mother, waiting excitingly. Gabriella pulled Troy up and crashed her lips against his. She nodded her head, and continued to kiss him. Vienna cheered behind them, and Gabriella's smile became even wider. At least as wide as it could get until her wedding day, and maybe kid number 2 and 3 and 4…
Oh, oh,
Be my baby.
Oohh.
Oh, oh,
Be my baby.
Oohh.
Oh, oh,
Be my baby.
Oohh.
Oh, oh,
Be my baby.
Oohh.
