"I'm sorry Ryan. I can't do this." She stood up, lifting her body off of him and fixing her now messy hair. Ryan sighed and relaxed into the couch. Both their faces were red.

"Why can't you do this?" He asked, stretching out his hand and snatching for the girl's waist. She stepped out of his reach.

"Because I'm Troy's girlfriend," she stated.

"Can't we just forget Troy? He doesn't love you like I do," he said. Then he covered his mouth. "I'm sorry!"

"No, Ryan. Your right. He never does anything for me." Gabriella looked as though she finally had accepted the bitter truth. Ryan took his hand away from his mouth. He stretched as far as he could and grabbed waist, pulling her towards him. "I've never seen this side of you Ryan," she growled.

"I've never been so in love," he whispered back. Their lips met again, but this time in a slow manner. The door opened. Ryan and Gabriella, oblivious, kept up their business. The door gently shut again. A few minutes later, when Ryan and Gabriella were kissing more passionately, the door quietly opened again. Then there was a hand on Gabriella's shoulder.

"Ryan," she giggled from under his lips. Someone cleared their throat. Gabriella looked up. She stood up guiltily. Ryan groaned and opened his eyes. The tall head basketball player stood there, looking angrily between the girl and the boy. Sharpay stood in the doorway, giggling with delight.

"Gabriella, what are you doing?" Gabriella stayed silent, her head down. "You're cheating on me, that's what. And with a guy who can't read the words,' Drama Club

Rocks!'"

"He's more than you'll ever be, Troy." she said sharply. She looked him straight in the eye. "Yes. I do love him more than you. I can prove it." She lay back down on top of Ryan and kissed him again. To emphasize her point, she groaned onto his lips. Troy groaned in anger and left the room.There was only one word Ryan felt right now. Bliss.
