I got the idea to write this after listening to "Don't let me stop you" by Kelly Clarkson. Hope you like it

Don't Let Me Stop You

We were holding hands. That's what we do. Now that I think about it, that's all we ever do lately. He never let's me hold him, when I try to get close to him, he just moves away, yet, he won't tell me what's going on. He'll give me lame excuses like 'I'm just tired' or 'family problems.' I know them to be lies because, one, he's always laughing and things with his friends, never messes up in practice, and two, his family has never been closer; with graduation being right around the corner and him getting a basketball scholarship to the University of California, Berkley.

Just as we silently rounded the corner, Gabriella showed up and we all ran into each other. Her books went flying, yet neither one moved. I decided to grab her things and apologize.

"Gabriella, I'm so sorry, here's your things." I handed her her books as she just gave me a nervous smile and walked away quickly.

I looked up at Troy and saw him looking around the corner, staring at Gabriella as she walked into the Chemistry rooms. I knudged him. "Hey, Troy, why didn't you say sorry." He didn't even turn to look at me, he just kept staring at the classroom door. "Troy!"

He finally turned his head and looked at me emotionless. "Huh, wh- what?"

I shook my head. "You didn't say sorry."

His eyes were on the classroom door again. "Oh, I'm sorry, Sharpay." He sighed then grabbed my hand, leading me to my first class.

The last couple of weeks have been like this. Every time he sees Gabriella, he just stops and stares at her. It drives me crazy, but, he's helped me through so much, I figure I could just let him look at her. I mean, it's not like he's cheating on me or anything! Troy's not like that.

When we made it to my class room, I decided I wanted to try and kiss him. We haven't kissed in days. I lifted myself onto my toes and kissed him sweetly. He kissed me back, but it wasn't filled with want like it used to be. I stepped down and gave him a fake smile.

"I'll see you after school then?" We have to talk after school; I can't take him not "being" with me anymore.

His beautiful blue eyes that were once filled with love were now filled with sadness. "Um, yeah, sure." He then walked away.

Soooooo, what did you think????? It'll only be two chapters, just to let you know. Plus, if you've heard the song, you'll know where this is going!!
