Chapter 16

Gabriella awoke to the sound of a phone ringing, non-stop. Her head pounded as she arose slowly from her bed. She searched the dim room for her phone until she found it in her purse. Her eyes widen as she sees she has over 100 missed calls and text messages. As she goes through her notifications she sees a particular photo of Troy carrying her out of the nightclub.

"Oh my god…" she mumbled and turned around to see a peaceful sleeping Troy.

"Troy wake up!" Gabriella says and Troy doesn't stir one bit. As she goes to say his name again her phone begins to ring and she sees it's her manager.

"Hello..." she says.

"Gabriella! I have been trying to get a hold of you all morning! There's a lot going on regarding your night out last night with your ex-fiancé brother! Which I need an explanation for, matter of fact I need a whole bunch of explanations Gabriella!" Gabriella winces at her manager's tone.

"I'm sorry Denise, it's not at all what it looks like Sharpay was there too. We had went out for some drinks, I might have had one too many. I don't remember being carried out." Gabriella says.

"It only gets better; you both took a cab to your house and guess what? The cab driver obviously knew who you both were and gave out your address to the media! So not only did you and Troy go out to a night club but now everyone knows he stayed with you last night." Said Denise.

Gabriella couldn't believe it, her mouth and eyes were wide open as she made her way to the windows leading to the front of her house and there she saw not only paparazzi but her fans, Troy's fans standing outside the gates of her house.

"Denise what am I going to do?" Gabriella said in shock.

"Where's Troy?" Denise asked.

2 minutes later Gabriella stormed back into her room and began to shake a deep sleep Troy.

"Troy," Gabriella said sternly continuously shaking him.

Troy's eyes shot open as he woke up to Gabriella shaking him; he gave her a small smile.

"Hey Brie." He yawned.

"Don't 'Hey Brie' me. Troy what happened last night? I woke up to a hundred missed calls and there are so many people outside of my gate that I don't even know! My manager called me and told me we took a cab home? Why didn't we take the limo back with Sharpay? There are pictures of us all over the internet Troy ALL OVER!" Gabriella stated looking at Troy.

Troy's eyes were as big as the moon and his mouth was wide open. "I…I don't know Gabriella. You and Shar were really wasted; when we were leaving I didn't see Sharpay I thought she might have left. And I took a cab because the limo was not outside. I know it probably wasn't the smartest but…" he trailed off.

"But what Troy? We were way to reckless last night, especially since the public recently found out about me and Austin splitting up but now they see me and you together. I look crazy Troy! I look like a whore jumping from brother to brother." She said as she shakes her head.

Troy got up from the bed grabbing her to him all in one motion. "Don't you ever say that Gabriella. You are not a whore. You know damn well you are not. Yes…this whole situation is crazy me, you and Austin. But I want to be with you Gabriella. It's really shitty how we ended up here and hey we have a heck of a story to tell in the future some day but I don't regret this. I feel way to sure about this, my feelings are real. I could give a fuck about what others may think or what the media thinks because I know what's really going on not them." Troy said looking into Gabriella's eyes intently.

Gabriella felt a tear escape and slide down her cheek. "It's just hard Troy…this, us it's going to be hard. I have all these intense feelings for you and I want to be with you too Troy but I was just engaged almost two weeks ago to your older brother who I still have feelings for too. I…maybe this is all moving too fast…you still are trying to your divorce settled and I'm still trying to get settled into my new life." Gabriella said lowly.

"So what are you trying to say Brie? You don't want to do this anymore?" Troy said in a hurt tone.

Gabriella felt her eyes water and she just looked down to the ground.

Troy cupped her damp cheeks forcing her eyes to look into his. "Answer me."

"I don't know what to do." Gabriella cried softly.

Troy remembered what she said in the cab last night, those three words that made his heart swell. He grabbed Gabriella's face and kissed her passionately. In his head he was saying I love you, I love you over and over. He swept he tongue at her bottom lip begging for permission and he was so happy when she granted it, he was afraid she might resist. He felt her hands sit upon his waist and he took the opportunity to grab her by her waist lifting her up and placing her on the bed softly. He then moved his kisses from her lips to her neck where he felt her let out a breath and small moan. He removed her t-shirt as he continued placing kisses down her petite body and removed her thongs as well. Troy looked back up at Gabriella as he saw her looking down at him with so much passion and desire in her eyes. He placed a kiss on the top of her pussy which caused her to squirm. Troy was taking so many chances here but he didn't care, he wanted to Gabriella to only have feelings for him. He wanted to make her forget about his brother.

"Troy..." Gabriella moaned softly. She placed her small hands at the side of his face bringing to up to hers.

Troy kissed her, letting there tongues slide and glide along each other. He slipped off his boxer briefs in the process and positioned himself above Gabriella. He stopped kissing to look into Gabriella's eyes, once he got her approval he slides himself inside her of slowly.

Gabriella moaned and wiggled her hips adjusting to his length. She looked up at Troy, locking eyes with him as he began rocking his him back and forth gaining speed with each stroke. Gabriella felt electricity following through her body each stroke. This feeling was like no other, Gabriella felt as though she was on a high her body was floating into those blue ocean orbs she couldn't stop looking at. She felt every need and ache in her body being satisfied, she had definitely never felt like this before. His length filled her up, while she tightens around him.

"Oh god Brie." Troy groaned.

"Cum for me baby." Gabriella moaned, and with that Troy exploded.

Gabriella felt her body vibrate as she came along with Troy.

Troy took his member out of her and lay down next to Gabriella pulling her close. "I know this feels like were moving fast but my feelings are moving faster. I am falling for you Brie and I'm willing to do whatever it takes to have you by my side because I don't think these feelings can just go away."

Gabriella looked into his eyes. "I know how you feel Troy, I feel exactly the same. I'm just scared at what the world is going to think or do."

"Don't worry so much about them. Let's worry about us." Troy rubbed her cheek softly.

Gabriella just nodded and snuggled her bare body into Troy's. Maybe Troy was right, who cares what the world thinks.
