FINALLY OVER !
Yes , I pulled myself together and wrote the last chapter for Opposite Attractions. So finally, finally, finally, it's OVER. Though I did like it when I first wrote it, this story turned out to be such a pain in my butt to keep writing. I'm sorry for the extremely long wait, and I do hope that someone is still reading it (probably not...)
For those few who are, here's the missing piece to make this story complete :)
Chapter 38/Epilogue – Gabriella's point of view
5 years later
I observed my reflection in the mirror. I knew that it was me, that girl I saw in the mirror, but I couldn't really process it. She was beautiful, that girl in front of me. Everything about her was beautiful – her hair put up in a perfect up-do with curls falling elegantly down her neck, her face, and most beautiful of all; her dress. She wore a long, sleeveless white dress, embroidered with white and silver beads across her chest. Everything about this girl in front of me was magic-like. She looked like a princess.
I smiled to myself and looked at this girl one last time, before I turned around to face my two best friends.
"So, what do you think?" I wondered, and their smiles alone could tell me that everything looked perfect.
"You are gorgeous!" Sharpay squealed and clapped her hands together of excitement.
"I have never seen a more beautiful person in my entire life!" Taylor whispered, and I noticed how her eyes started to well up with tears.
I smiled at them. "I love you guys"
With a long, loving group hug I knew that I was ready to walk down the aisle. I knew that I would be safe knowing that the two people I loved the second most in this world was right there with me, replacing the empty space that would have been my father's if he was around. And most of all, I knew I would be safe knowing that the man I loved with all my heart, would be waiting for me at the end of the aisle, ready to do risk his own life for me.
I smiled as I started to walk, slowly and carefully, with hundreds of people watching my every move, gasping and gazing as I walked passed them, one by one.
I smiled as I stared in to Troy's eyes, as soon as I saw him standing up in the front of the church, waiting patient to turn me from Miss. Montez in to Mrs. Bolton.
I smiled as I thought about Troy's proposal, how he kneeled down and showed me that beautiful diamond ring. It had been one of the first nights we spent out on the balcony of our first apartment together. 'It's been four years now' He had said. 'Four years since I first asked you to marry me' He added, and immediately I remembered that one morning, when we had been staring at the sun rising, our naked bodies covered by nothing else than the sheets from his bed. 'I didn't think it was possible to love you more than I did at that moment, but I know better now. My love for you have grown immensely, and I love you with all my heart, Gabriella' By then, my eyes were filled with tears. 'I want to spend the rest of my life with you, so will you do the honor of marrying me, Gabriella Montez?' I had wrapped my arms around his neck and agreed in every language I knew – Si, Oui, Yes, Ja! Right after that, he had reminded me of the promise I had gave him that one night we had shared in High School. My promise of marrying in five years.
I smiled when I reached the end of the aisle, and tangled my fingers together with Troy's.
It was the most perfect day of my life. Together with Troy, my family, and all of our friends, I stepped in to the greatest adventure yet to come.
I smiled as I thought about how funny life can turn out in a way. Sometimes, the one that you hate with all of your heart can turn out to be the one that's perfect for you in every way.
I looked at Troy, and my heart skipped a couple of beats when he smirked at me.
Opposites do attract.
