I DON'T OWN KATY PERRY'S SONG WAKING UP IN VEGAS OR HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL. If i did I wouldn't be here.

He laid there on his bed playing with the ring on his finger. He didn't understand how the hell it got there, he knew how but he didn't understand how he could let it happen. Troy had only gotten back from the away game to Las Vegas, being the captian of the Lakers was his dream and he loved the fact he got to share it with his three best friends Chad, Zeke and Jason who had also made the team straight out of High School. Everything in his life was simple and set out. But now he was lying on his old bed, in his parent's house back in Albuquerque more confused then he had ever been in his whole entire life.

Gabriella Danforth had just woken up from the banging on her hotel room door slowly sitting up and cursing herself for drinking so much the night before and wondering why she had only underwear on. She got up grabbed the closest pair of jeans and top, putting them on and then opening the door only to find her brother and two of his best friends standing at the door.

"Chady why are you at my door?" Gabriella asked sweetly. People thought it was very weird that Gabriella and Chad were so close but they had been that way since she was born 10 months after Chad was. They had always been in the same grades at school and Chad had always kept a protective eye over her growing up. Their parents did the same while they where young. Their mom Maria gave up her job when Chad was born so she could stay home, and give her every moment to him and it was the same when Gabriella was born. When their Dad, Corbin wasn't at work he gave every waking minute he had, to her and Chad. Seeing that they were not many months apart in age they had their hands full but no one could doubt how much either of them loved the both of them.

"Gabby I would love to know why my baby sister is in my best friend's hotel room," Chad said making Gabriella's mouth drop, "At 9:30 am, so if you don't mind PLEASE EXPLAIN!" Chad exclaimed guiding her back into the room followed closely by Jason and Zeke.

"Umm I'm not, am I?" Gabriella asked turning to her brother.

"No we just walked to the end of the PLAYERS floor to the captains of the LAKERS room to find out why TROY left early with some girl," Zeke said putting emphasis on a few words. Like Chad and Troy, Jason and Zeke had become protective of Gabriella over the years, but they weren't and never could be as protective as Chad and in many was Troy who was most of the time more protective of her then Chad.

"OH MY GOD!" Jason yelled, "You were that girl,"

"Oh he must have been just bringing you here to stop some other guy hitting on you," Chad said starting to get angry. He didn't want to think about any guy he didn't like going near her. The only problem was he didn't like any guy she liked. Gabriella started playing with the ring on her left ring finger. After having many years of having a purity ring on that finger she had grown a habit of playing with the ring that Chad and Troy had gotten her when she first told them she wanted to take the pledge. After playing with the ring she noticed it wasn't right so she looked down at it and screamed.

"OH MY GOSH!" She yelled covering her mouth, "Oh no no no NO!" she repeated falling to the floor crying.

"Gabby what's wrong?" Chad asked walking over to her, "Why are you crying?" Chad asked as he knelt down next to her. Gabriella continued to cry making Chad, Zeke and Jason more worried. It was times like this Chad loved having Troy around; Chad and Troy were the only two people who could get through to Gabriella in these kinds of situations. Chad reached out to pull Gabriella into a hug but she hit his hands away.

"Gab darling?" Zeke asked softly walking over to her and knelling down next to Chad. Gabriella had never push Chad away, the only time she did was when they had had a huge fight but Troy was always there. No, Zeke knew something very wrong was going on. Troy wasn't here so he could not understand why she wasn't letting Chad touch her.

"I….I'm….I'm… so….so..sor…sorry..Chad," Gabriella choked out between tears. She spoke so softly that the boys almost didn't hear her.

"Gabby, what are you sorry for?" Chad asked calmly. All Gabriella did was, hold up her hand in front of his face. Once Chad, Zeke and Jason realized what the huge rock on Gabriella's finger meant their mouths dropped. Zeke and Jason stood up and started pacing. Chad fell back so he was now sitting on the floor, after looking at Gabriella for a while he put his head in his hands. Out of no where Chad jumped up and punched the wall making Gabriella scream in fear and Jason and Zeke run to his sides to make him calm down.

"I'm going to kill the son of a bitch that did this to you!" Chad yelled pacing, "Just wait till I find Troy," once she heard this Gabriella jumped up.

"Chad No," Gabriella cried grabbing on to his arm.

"Gabby," Chad said calming looking into her eyes, "Troy is going to want to kill this guy as much as I do," Gabriella only broke down in tears and latched on to Chad.

"Oh Shit," Jason said to himself.

"SHIT, SHIT, SHIT, SHIT!" Troy exclaimed to him self, "How the hell did this happen? Oh My God! I married my best friends sister, how am I ever going to live this down?" Troy asked him self pacing up and down his room. He stopped to look at the picture of the Gang that hung on his wall. In the middle was Chad and himself, on the other side of Chad was Gabriella and Taylor, on the other side of Troy was Zeke and Jason. It had been taken and one of the many family BBQs that his parents had thrown, the gang had been sitting down under the tree in his back yard talking, he couldn't help but notice Gabriella looking at him while by the looks of it playing with her ring.

"How could I forget," Troy said falling back so he was sitting on his bed, "Chad's going to have my head for this, him and I spent our high school careers protecting her and keeping sex crazed boys away from her, so she could keep the promise of all promises," Troy himself in the head, "We payed for that ring after spending two weeks looking for it," Troy said lying down, "Fuck I stole her virginity, hell I'm going to kill myself and save Chad the trouble," he said jumping on to his feet.

He was meant to be protecting her. Chad and he knew that being the only girl on the Lakers Cheer leading team that was a virgin gave off some type of fun for some of the players on the team and from other teams to try and get her. The ones on the team where, 1. Trying to test him or Chad 2. wanted to break her heart and take the one thing off her that she could never get back or 3. They where trying to do both, which would make Troy and Chad even more pissed when they found out. The ones from other teams where trying to piss Troy and Chad off. They had worked out that going to close to her would put the Lakers star player off but at the same time make him play more fiercely.

"How did I let this happen," Troy asked himself. "I took her out of the party because 1. she was drunk 2. players where hitting on her," Troy said counting off on his fingers, "Remember to kill Josh, Matt and Alex, 3. I hated the way guys were looking at her 4. I love her 5." Troy said coming to a halt.

"Did you just say that son," Troy spun around to see his Dad standing at his bedroom door.

"Dad I," Troy started but realized it was a lost course, "I didn't mean it to happen, I wished and hoped she would be mine for years that's why I keep her close to Chad and I at all times," Troy said sitting on his bed and Jack sat down with him after shutting the door, "Why I beat the shit out of any guy that came onto her, why I tried to talk her out of her dream of becoming a Lakers girl," Troy said.

"Troy its ok I could tell that all a long," Jack said coursing Troy to look at him, "I knew the long arguments with Gabby about her following you guys up there and becoming a cheerleader wasn't just the only reasons you said out loud," Troy nodded, "You have always loved her Troy I knew straight away, it was in your eyes son, let alone in the way you protected her from anyone and everyone, heck you turned on Chad if he was mean to her," Jack chuckled remembering the time he had to stop practice so he could pry Troy away from Chad because he had accused Gabriella of being a slut for wanting to be a cheerleader in sophomore year, "You would do anything for that girl and you still do, Troy I think you need to go back and talk to her, seeing you got up and left and got here at 4 am," Jack said standing up, "Troy I know she feels the same way as you do right now," with that Jack left his room. Troy got up and walked out of his room, said goodbye to his Mom and Dad and when home to L.A.

Ok well there you go. PLease tell me what you think. I would love you to know what you think and even you just wanna talk i don't mind. The more reviews i get the faster I'll update.
