"And this is my apartment." Chad said bringing Troy into the house. The dirty blonde with light eyes observed the house. The living room was long and spacious looking like the living room was a loft. He had beige couches, with a black coffee table in the center. His apartment was a bricked loft with a spacious living room and four doors. He assumed Chad was using them as extra bedrooms.

"Sharpay moved all your things into the spare room so I guess everything is good." Chad said answering Troy's mental question walking over to the fridge. "Beer?" He asked getting a bottle. Troy looked at the built African american male in his temporary kitchen.

"Yeah sounds good." Troy said taking the bottle from this guy he just met. Chad smiled at him.

"So I have a basic understanding of your story, can you tell me a little more?" He pushed on.

"Well for starters we all work together at the magazine company." He said thinking about why he up and moved to Chicago. "Well Sharpay is good friends with my girlfriend." He said seeing Chad nod to continue. "We were both living in New York, but Sharpay suggested that we come to Chicago for a year and view different styles in Chicago." Chad nodded.

"That's amazing." Chad said smiling. "What's her name?"

"Renée." Troy said sipping on his beer. "And what do you do?" He asked.

"I'm a sports agent for the White Sox." He said smirking. "I help them organize their players and help with trades and free agents." Troy nodded.

"Impressive." He said cooly observing the house.

"Big sports fan?" Chad asked taking a sip of beer.

"You know it." He said smiling back when the door flew open. A tall blonde walked in, shades on her face and a tight knee lengthened dress with black pumps on.

"Oh Troy! You're here." She squealed running over to him. She hugged him tightly. "You like Chicago?!" She asked him putting her colossal bag on the counter.

"Yeah! It's nice." He said observing his new surroundings. Sharpay clapped to herself.

"This calls for a celebration!" She said grabbing her bag again. "Lets go to Molly's!" She cheered.

"I'll call Gabriella." Chad said rolling his eyes.

"No! We'll surprise her!" She said enthusiastically. She ran over to the door leaving.

"I can't believe she's always like this." Troy said following her.


The brunette walked out of the kitchen with a tray of chocolate covered strawberries she just made. She was about to drizzle white chocolate on the tops of the fruit. She turned back around into the kitchen looking for the pipette full of white chocolate. She walked back out grabbing the tray and moving over to a counter. She started to drizzle the strawberries one by one. Her door opened and she heard a squeal. She looked up seeing Sharpay run in. The brunette winced knowing where this was going.

"Hi baby!" She said walking over.

"Yes?" She asked looking at the strawberries. She saw a pink manicured finger take one off the plate. She groaned. "Can you not?!" She said looking at Chad and another man walk up.

"Oh Gabriella lighten up." She said popping the strawberry in her mouth. Gabriella rolled her eyes working back on the strawberries.

"Hey Chad." She said focused on her work. "New guy." She added. Chad smirked taking another strawberry. She looked up putting the bag down. "What the fuck." She said grabbing her tray and walking it into her kitchen. "You two have no boundaries!" She shouted staring at the two eat the sugared treat. "I have to sell that shit." She added scolding them. They all laughed. Troy felt awkward. Sharpay noted him.

"Gabi, this is our friend Troy!" She said introducing them. She looked up at him. Her brown eyes met his as he looked at her with his blue orbs. She was almost mesmerized by his appearance as he stared into her eyes. She looked back down to her work.

"Hello." She said tight-lipped. She punched some numbers into the register. He looked at her then back to the two. "Why are you here?" She asked looking at them.

"Celebration at Molly's!" She said to them. Gabriella frowned.

"Oh, sorry I'm closing." She said lying. Bernadette in the background smirked.

"She isn't, she's all yours." Gabriella turned around and shot her a glare. Sharpay squealed running around to the counter and grabbing her.

"Time to party!"


They all sat around the table, drinking their beverages. Gabriella and Chad were arguing about the Hawks versus the Bruins. The series for the Stanley cup finished about two months ago having Chad and Gabriella in a frenzy about the games. Now nearing the end of august, the two were ready for beginning of the hockey and football season, and excited for the playoffs for baseball to begin. Troy had idle talk with Sharpay when the arguing came to an end.

"Ha! You can suck my cock." She said sipping her beer. "I was right." She pointed at him. Chad put his hands up.

"Are you always this obscene?" Troy asked her. The smile fell off her face, as she just gave him a fake smile.

"Yeah actually. Are you always this uptight?" She asked him. Chad hit her, resulting in a hit ten times harder.

"Not uptight, just mature." He said sipping his beer. He put it down placing his hands on the table. "How old are you again?" He asked in an unamused tone.

"25." She said not even feeling upset by him. "And you are what? 78?" She asked.

"Okay, knock it off." Sharpay said to both of them. Troy simply sat back and observed as she kept going.

"Someone's dick is a little unused." She said to him.

"I have a girlfriend and it's anywhere far from unused. What about your cobwebs?" He asked casually.

"Haven't had any. I actually had hot rough sex last night with my boyfriend." She said smiling.

"How does a creature like you have a boyfriend?" He asked her.

"Can you guys stop?! Please?!" Sharpay shouted. "You guys are really annoying me." She said. Gabriella shrugged walking away from the table walking up to the bar tender. Sharpay looked at him annoyed. "And what was that about? She's my best friend." Troy just shrugged.

"She was getting irritating, some one had to tell her." He said looking at her at the bar smiling at the bar tender, opening her mouth to let a giggle or laugh out. She winked at him walking back with a beer in her hand. He shrugged looking at her as the night began to grow longer.


The scene had ended at the bar for Troy as he wanted to go back to Chad's and prepare for his next first day at work. He scored an amazing job working in Chicago on a one year transfer. He missed New York, but he loved it in Chicago. The city was alive and more well kept in his opinion, but New York was his one true home. He grew up in Alberquere, New Mexico, but he was given an amazing opportunity to have a job given to him in New York. So he shipped up and moved himself to the 'City that never sleeps'. There he found his girlfriend of six months, that soon would be staying with him and Chad. As he walked out the bar, he stood by the side walk waiting to call a taxi. There he found the brunette monster waiting for one too. He rolled his eyes looking at her. She quickly caught his glance and looked at him.

"Oh hey cocky asshole." She said smiling looking back to the street.

"I just think that you think you're this little bad ass that can boss and scare everyone..." He said crossing his arms. She smiled at him turning to face him so he can get a good look at her face.

"I don't think... I know." She said turning to the street and watching for a cab.

"This is what I mean." He said turning to face her. "You're this little thing full of hatred." He said getting in her face annoyed. He took in how chocolate and warm her eyes were. He swore if you looked at her before meeting her, you would think she was an angel.

"I think your this ignorant man that works at a less than pleasing job, who probably over compensates for his small penis." She said with a smirk looking up at him. "At least I enjoy my life." She said with a laugh. He boiled feeling anger rush throughout his body.

"I do enjoy my life!" He said getting fired up. "And I do enjoy my job." He added. She threw her head back looking at him.

"Really?" She asked and he nodded. "Tell me, does growing a vagina fit in the job description?" She asked him. He felt more anger rise after that comment. Okay, he does work at a magazine company, but that didn't mean he was a female.

"You're a little monster." He said seeing her hail a cab. She walked up laughing to herself again.

"And you're a pussy for not having quality come backs." She said opening the door. "Oh and nice to meet you asshole." She said stepping into the car. The taxi drove off, leaving him standing there. He sighed. This was going to be rough.
