Note: I've never seen either movies but I love the Traylor pairing.


Taylor McKessie quickly checked herself out before rushing downstairs to greet Chad Danforth. She was finally getting out of the house, to attend a going away party for Troy, and she wanted to look perfect. Not for Troy, but for Chad. He was her boyfriend after all...

She picked at imaginary lint on her red v-necked dress and walked down only to be drooled over by Chad. "Gosh, Taylor. You sure I don't have to follow you everywhere at the party?" The poofy haired teen wrapped his arm around Taylor's waist and led her down the block to Troy's house. "You look amazing."

"Thanks. Now no one will notice how bad you look." They both laughed as they reached Troy's mansion of a 2 story home. Loud music and chaotic yelling could be heard down the road. "This is quite the party," Taylor whispered to Chad.

Chad simply opened the door and walked in, scanning the large living room and kitchen for Troy and Taylor for Gabriella. When they found each other, Taylor swore her heart stopped when she saw Troy. The 6'0 brunette looked absolutely gorgeous. She found herself drowning in his sapphire blue eyes.

Taylor heard Troy laugh and thought he was talking to Chad when she heard him say her name. "Someone has an eye problem, don't they Taylor?"

She froze. "Uh, what do you mean?" She tried to play it off. "Just trying to see if a basketball lunkhead had a mind in there." The group laughed and Taylor rubbed her sweaty palms on her dress, knowing he was the only guy who could make her sweat.

"Ouch, Tay. And to think I was going to compliment your outfit."

Gabi giggled at Taylor's 'deer in headlights' expression. "C'mon, lets go meet up with Martha and Kelsi." She began walking towards the patio doors when Taylor stopped and shook her head.

"You go ahead. I gotta make a pit stop." Taylor didn't really need to go but she had to leave the living room. Being near Troy was too much at that moment. "I'll meet up with you later." She decided to use the upstairs bathroom thinking she'd get some privacy. She got everything but. Not only was Troy in the bathroom, but he seemed to be doing the same thing she was doing.

He ushered Taylor into the bathroom and shut the door behind them. "I needed to get away, too." Troy looked Taylor up and down. "You look nice, Taylor."

Taylor just stood there before meekly replying, "Thanks." She sat on the edge of the tub, opposite Troy on the toilet. "So, what'd you need to get away from?," she asked. "Your parents let you throw an unsupervised party, you got accepted into USC like you wanted, and you have people who support you." She walked over to him and placed her hand on his shoulder. "Like me."

"Yeah, I know that much." He placed his hand on hers and looked into her eyes. "I'm not smart like you Taylor. I'll probably be kicked out in a month's time." Troy got up and started to pace in the spacious bathroom. "I can't have a tutor 24/7."

Taylor sat down on the edge of the tub and watched Troy pace. She never thought that he worried about college. She figured that he'd just get by with B's and C's like in high school. "It'll be okay, Troy. You can call me anytime and I'll help you study."

"Yeah, right." Troy sat beside her and she lay her head on his shoulder. "Thanks for the offer," he whispered before taking a deep breath and rubbing her bare thigh. "Let's get back to the party."

Taylor reluctantly got up and walked towards the door, only to stop and walk back to Troy. "Good luck in California." Before she could realize what she was doing, her lips softly met Troy's. When she opened her eyes, she saw Troy's wide eyed expression and backed up. "Oh, Troy, I'm so sorry."

She fast walked towards the door but Troy ran in front of her and blocked it. "No, don't leave now." He walked towards Taylor and caught her lips in a passionate kiss before pulling away and opening the door.

"Now, we can leave."
