((I seriously enjoyed writing "Forbidden Love"! It was a blast seeing how everybody liked it. There will be more songs in "Love and Depression". The first one is "30 Minutes by t.A.T.u. I have altered it a little bit from the way I original wrote it. I added a few things and took some things out. Well here it goes the sequel to "Forbidden Love"! Warnings: Language.))
Chapter One: Guilt And Angels
Sharpay POV
It has been five minutes since the gas cans exploded. The firemen had put the fire out and they pulled out three bodies. Weird, I only noticed that two people were missing.
"Excuse me ma'am, I know this isn't regulation protocol, but can you please identify the bodies so we can notify the families?" One of the paramedics asked me.
"OK, but I am terrified though. I can't seem to find one of my friends. And I know that one of them is under those sheets." I told him.
I walked over to the gurneys and he pulled the first one down to the neck.
"That's Nicka Panalini. He was one of Alex's friends. May I ask where you found him?" I asked him.
"He was on the first floor when the fire happened. The shock must have given him a heart attack." The man told me as he was covering him back up. He walked to the next one in line and he did the same as Nick, pulling the sheet to the neck.
"That's Stephanie King. She owned the property and she was one of my best friends." I told him as he covered her back up. As we walked to the final gurney my heart had started racing. I got this horrible cold him down my back and I knew, just knew that something wasn't right. When we reached the gurney he pulled the sheet down to the neck like before. I took two steps back as I saw who was under it.
"That…That's Alex Bolton." I said bursting into tears.
Troy POV
We got our cars packed and Gabriella offered to ride with me.
"Sure, Gabi, As long as you can stand listening to t.A.T.u me singing it." I told her popping in my mixed t.A.T.u CD. I turned it to track five and pressed play.
Momma, Poppa forgive me.
I whispered along with it.
Out of sight
Out of mind
Out of time to decide
Do we run?
Should I hide?
For the rest of my life
Can we fly?
Do I stay?
We could lose
We could fail
In the moment it takes
To make plans
Or mistakes
I sang as I started to cry. The weight of what just happened finally falling on my shoulders.
30 minutes, a blink of an eye
30 minutes to alter our lives
30 minutes to make up my mind
30 minutes to finally decide
30 minutes to whisper your name
30 minutes to shoulder the blame
30 minutes of bliss, thirty lies
30 minutes to finally decide
"It's going to be okay, Troy." Gabriella told me when she looked over and saw me crying as the music started playing again because she paused it.
Carousels
In the sky
That we shape
With our eyes
Under shade
Silhouettes
Casting shade
Crying rain
Can I fly?
Do I stay?
We could lose
We could fail
Either way
Options change
Chances fail
Trains derail
30 minutes, a blink of an eye
30 minutes to alter our lives
30 minutes to make up my mind
30 minutes to finally decide
30 minutes to whisper your name
30 minutes to shoulder the blame
30 minutes of bliss, thirty lies
30 minutes to finally decide
To decide, to decide, to decide,
To decide, to decide, to decide,
To decide, to decide, to decide,
I sang through the fade. We are two minutes away from Ryan and Sharpay's home.
"Gabi, I don't feel good. Something bad is about to happen. Something is not right. I just know it." I said looking at the radio to turn it off.
"HOLY SHIT!" I screamed slamming on the brakes, the car lunching forward. We are one house away from their driveway.
"Troy! What the fuck is wrong?!" Gabriella practically screamed at me.
"I think I just saw Alex." I told her.
"Troy, no one is there." She told her looking nervous as I started to drive again.
I looked at the spot where I saw Alex and he was still there. Staring at me, looking at me like asking for forgiveness. As we pulled into the driveway I saw Chad and Ryan were already pulling my clothes and boxes out of their cars when we pulled up. As I parked behind Chad's hummer my cell phone started to ring. Mom came up on the caller ID.
"Hello?" I asked.
"Troy, it's about Alex." She told me crying.
"What about him?" I asked worried.
"He- He is…" She said crying. "Alex is dead. He died at the party. Him, Nick and one of Sharpay's friends. Stephanie I think her name is." She told me crying severely now. "Sweetie I have to go. Your father is coming. Bye."
"Bye mom. I love you." I told her as I hung up the phone.
"Baby, are you all right?" Ryan asked me.
"Alex is dead." I told him before collapsing into his arms bursting into tears again.
((I hope you liked the first chapter! I might write a Degrassi/HSM over when this is over! R&R!))
