hello all :)
here i am with yet another story!
okay, now i know i already have a story in progress (Broken), but i really wanted to put this one up. Broken isn't going to be that long anyways, 3-4 chaps max. this is going to be my next fully-fledged story. I'm also finding this story a lot easier to write. it's not exactly as happy as Sing With Me, but its not nearly as gloomy as Broken.
aaanyways, im getting off topic. im exploring more new terrain with story, because it will also have some Troyella parts, which should be interesting. i also plan to include sex scenes... ive been inspired by BitterGrin's By Moonlight (READ IT, IT'S GOOD!), so look out for those. i wannt do a lot of experimenting with Troy's relationships with different people in this story, mainly Ryan and Gabriella, so be prepared for a lot of new stuff. i also think this story will be even longer than Sing With Me.
so ummm, i dont know what else to say. i mightve already said too much, its such a bad habit. XP This story also draws some inspiration from the movie Hairspray, but its very subtle.
enough babbling from me, i'll get the disclaimer underway and let you read!
Disclaimer: I think it's pretty obvious i don't own HSM, or any of its characters. Please also note, this is a slash fic, which means boy on boy stuff. Parts are also boy girl, but this story's main focus will be Tryan, and not Troyella.
OKAY IM DONE! you can read now :)
A Romance Story by tryanforever91
Chapter One: A Girl, a Boy, and Ryan
Sitting slumped in his desk, Troy Bolton was playing with his pencil absently. His gaze strayed from the blackboard, covered with complex algebraic formulas, and wandered over his many classmates. Most of them were hunched over their homework, writing furiously, including the girl Troy was staring at.
"Gabriella!" Troy whispered, but she apparently didn't hear him. She was intently focused on scrawling out her math homework. Troy tried getting her attention again, in vain.
He chanced a glance at the teacher, who was busy marking the last test. Troy nabbed this chance to crumple up his blank piece of paper and toss it in Gabriella's direction. It hit its target on the dot, and she looked up in surprise. Her eyes met up with Troy's and a small smile stretched across her face.
"What?" She mouthed. Troy shrugged his shoulders. Gabriella let out a small laugh and shook her head. Troy was slacking off yet again. "Get back to work!" She whispered. Troy tilted his head and rolled his eyes. Yeah, fat chance Troy was going to do his homework. Gabriella sighed and reverted her attention back to her homework. Troy hissed her name again, and she looked up.
"What?" She said again.
"Meet me after class." Troy whispered. Gabriella nodded and lowered her head once more. Troy leaned back into his seat, folding his arms behind his head, and stared at the clock. He started humming Lucas Grabeel's You Got It, which had been stuck in his head all day, and tapped his toes to an imaginary beat.
A few desks over, Ryan was trying to concentrate on a particularly difficult question. His ears picked up a distracting tapping sound, and he turned to see Troy bobbing as he hummed some annoying song. Ryan grumbled. It was so like Troy to just sit around and do nothing. And it wasn't enough to hinder his own progress. He had to whisper, and pass notes, and whistle, making focusing on homework a constant battle for the students who actually cared about passing math. Of course, Ryan didn't do anything about it. What could he do? Ask Troy to stop? Troy barely noticed Ryan, why in the hell would he listen to him? Ryan found himself looking at the clock, as he counted the minutes left of this agony. To his delight, he only had to count the seconds, and packed away his things before the bell rang. As it sounded, the class got up and left for their lockers. The end of the day was finally upon them. Ryan slung his back over his shoulder and followed the mob of students out the door. He made it to his locker and opened it up. He groaned as he packed his books into his bag one by one. Tonight was going to be a homework night for sure. He heard someone giggling, and Ryan turned to see Troy and Gabriella a few lockers down. This was ridiculous! Would Ryan ever be able to escape Troy Bolton and his annoying antics? He slammed his locker shut and stalked away.
Gabriella turned to see Ryan stomping away. "What's eating him?"
"Hm?" Troy hadn't noticed anything, and he didn't bother to find out who Gabriella was talking about before turning her face back in his direction. He flashed her a grin and leaned in to kiss her on the lips.
"Troy." Gabriella said playfully. "Stop it!" Troy pulled away and took Gabriella's hand. "So what's up?" Gabriella asked, following Troy out of the school.
"Just wanted to see you." Troy said, as they made it outside. Spring had finally come, but it was still pretty nippy outside. Troy zipped up his windbreaker as Gabriella slipped on her gloves. They took each other's hand again and walked down the sidewalk.
"Wanna grab some hot chocolate?" Gabriella suggested. Troy nodded.
"Sure." They continued walking toward a popular café around the block. It was pretty busy when they got there, and they were hard pressed to find a table after getting their drinks. They saw a lone blond sitting by the window, staring through the foggy glass.
A nice cup of hot chocolate was just the thing Ryan needed. He sighed contentedly as he watched the hustle and bustle outside.
"Hey Ryan!" Ryan jumped, spilling some hot chocolate on himself. He looked up to see Troy and Gabriella standing before him. Oh what did he do to deserve this?
"Hey guys!" Ryan said, feigning a bright and cheery mood. "Take a seat." He said in spite of himself. The other two took their seat as Ryan dabbed at his sweater with a napkin.
Troy smiled at Ryan, sporting a hot chocolate moustache. "What's up?"
"Not much." Before he could say much else, Gabriella let out a laugh.
"Oh Troy, you've got cocoa all over your mouth." She took a napkin and wiped Troy's mouth clean. Ryan sighed quietly as Troy and Gabriella shared their cute moment. He came here for some peace and quiet. Troy and Gabriella he didn't need.
"Well, I've got a mountain of homework." Ryan said. "I should go." He didn't really want to leave the café so soon and do his homework, but if he stayed, he'd have to resist vomiting because of Troy and Gabriella being all… cute.
"Aww, okay Ryan." Gabriella said disappointedly. "See you later then."
"See ya man." Troy said. Ryan waved before squeezing his way out of the café. He zipped his parka up and pulled his mittens on. If there was anything more annoying than Troy, it was the cold. Ryan grumbled as he trudged through the melting snow. Ryan felt a little guilty leaving Troy and Gabriella so abruptly, but seeing them together was not exactly fun for him. Gabriella was a nice girl, and Troy was… okay, but something about them got on Ryan's nerves. Maybe it was because they were always together. As Ryan stopped to the think about it, he realized he had never really seen them apart. Ever since Gabriella showed up at East High, they pretty much spent every waking moment together. Ryan didn't really know why it bothered him so much, but it did. Was it jealousy? Was Ryan jealous of Troy because he was with Gabriella? Did he even like Gabriella that way? …Not really. She was too much of a goody-goody. What Troy saw in her, he couldn't see. Ryan found it a bit stupid that he was thinking so much about people that were putting him in such a bad mood, so he tried to push them aside as he made his way home.
what a grump. Ryan's no fun at all. well, not yet, heh heh heh...
ugh, you know how cutsey couples like Troyella get, it's so disgusting sometimes.
anyways, i hope you're liking this new story. i have big plans for it.
thanks so much for reading!
