Graduation Day:

Gabriella rolled over in her bed and collided with a familiar warm body, then a smile grew across her face. She could faintly hear Journey's crying and Hannah trying to console her as she curled her body into Troy and tried to go back to sleep.

"Babe," Troy whispered.

"Huh."

"It's time to get up, remember we promised Hannah we'd get up early to show her the apartment," Troy said.

The day Journey was born Mr. Bolton told Troy that if he was going to stay engaged to Gabriella that they were going to have to move out, But his mom said that she would help them out financially. Troy was frustrated that his mom would agree somewhat with his dad but Gabriella's calmness about the whole thing made him relax.

"Yeah but I'm sleeping," Gabriella whined.

"Come on Brie….And anyways she sounds like she needs some help," Troy said. As they continued to listen to Journey's cries and Hannah's frustration.

Gabriella sighed and slowly sat up, "Fine."

Troy chuckled as she slowly trudged out of bed and walked out of the room and went to her and Hannah's old room that is now Hannah and Journey's room.

When Gabriella opened the bedroom door she saw Hannah sitting on her rocking chair that Chad bought her breastfeeding 3 week old Journey.

"Hey little sis," Gabriella said while walking to sit down on Hannah's bed.

"Hey," she said trying to keep her eyes open.

"You tired?"

"Yeah. She's not a big night sleeper," she answered.

"Do you still want us to show you the apartment before Graduation?"
"Oh yeah totally, just let me finish feeding her and get ready," Hannah said.

Gabriella smiled and looked down at Journey and lightly rubber her back before walking back to her and Troy's room. Gabriella loves to watch Hannah and Journey together and even though Gabriella's not a teen mom (she practically is) Hannah comes to her for baby advice and Gabriella's happy to help. Even James and Katie love to help out Hannah, and Katie loves the fact that she's an aunt.

Troy was in the shower so instead Gabriella went downstairs where James and Katie were eating breakfast and Mrs. Bolton was cleaning the kitchen. In the past few weeks Gabriella had tried her hardest to avoid Troy's parents but she didn't want any more tension between each other.

"Hi Gabriella are you ready for Graduation?"
"Do you want me to take them, all of them…..so you guys can spent your time having fun instead of raising kids tat aren't yours," Gabriella came out saying.

Mrs. Bolton was shocked at what Gabriella had just said, "Gabriella you've spent your whole life raising them and I want you to have a normal college experience….I love them all and I love you too and I already feel like you all are my children….I'd rather have all of you stay but because my husband is so stubborn I'll settle for seeing you and Troy on weekends….Please let them stay and I promise they'll be aloud to spent the night at your guy's apartment….and don't worry I'll pay for whatever they need and what Journey needs too," you could tell that keeping them is very important to her. Gabriella started to feel tears well up in her eyes at what Mrs. Bolton just said. It was one of those times when she really felt like people cared about her family.

"Okay I really appreciate it……I don't know where'd we be if I didn't have you and Troy," Gabriella said giving a big hug to her future mother in law. Gabriella pulled back and saw that Mrs. Bolton had a tear streaming down her face, "You better go get ready if you guys are going to go," she smiled.

When Gabriella got to the bedroom she saw a boxer clad Troy looking through he's already boxed up clothes.

"Hey babe have you seen my favorite pair of pants," he asked not looking up from the box.

"Um I think they're in the dryer," She said grabbing her clothes and her towel to go take a shower.

After Gabriella was done getting ready she walked to Hannah's room and saw Troy rocking a sleeping Journey. She smiled at how cute and natural he was with her, it was crazy that in the future she would see the same thing but with their own baby.

"Don't get too attached," she said walking up to him.

"She so cute," he whispered, "I want one of these."

Gabriella rolled her eyes, "it's not like a toy Troy."
"Yeah I know…..But we'll have some right?"
"Of course but I want to be married first and I'll have to get up the courage to actually have sex," She said. His eyes went sad, thinking that there was something wrong with him.

"Troy that's not what I meant," she said, "I love you and I want to it's just this thing I have, I worry that something will go wrong….ugh god that just sounded stupid…..I guess it's just that I'm really self conscious and I worry what people think."

He took one of her hands and gently rubbed it, "It's okay. I can wait as long as you want….I love you and you're the most beautiful woman in the world.:

"I love you too," she said and leaned down to give him a sweet kiss.

They broke apart, "you know Katie looked just like her when she was that little, I always had a hard time with her hair because it was so curly and hard to brush," Gabriella said.

Troy looked back down and smiled, "You're a great mom….I know really they aren't yours but there's a whole hell of a lot more to being a parent then just giving birth to them…you and Hannah have done a great job with James, Katie and even Journey."

"Stop your going to make me cry," Gabriella said now staring into Troy's blue eyes.

Troy and Gabriella watched Journey for a few minutes more before Hannah was done getting ready. The three of them, well four including Journey, went to go look at Troy and Gabriella's two bedroom apartment four blocks from the college, U of A.

Later that day they all went off to East high to see Gabriella, Tory and Chad graduate. The Montez kids jumped in their seats when they saw them walk across the stage, it was a day they had counted down to. Journey slept through the whole thing but was wide awake when the Montez's, Bolton's and Danforth's came together on the football field and took a picture. The Montez kids were now proud to show people this picture and say, "This is my family."
