"My elbow is twitching."

"How can your elbow twitch? It's not a muscle."

"I'm telling you, my elbow is twitching!"

"Like I said…. It's not a muscle, your elbow can't twitch."

"Put your hand right there and feel then…. no there."

"Will you two shut up! We have to figure out how to get ourselves out of this mess." Troy snapped at Zeke and Jason, Zeke who had his hand on Jason's elbow.

"What can we do? None of the girls will talk to us, not to mention I can only live in the pool house so long. I much prefer my room." Ryan replied rolling his eyes.

"Maybe if…no that won't work." Jason said, looking disappointed.

"Both you and Chad need to do something incredibly amazing in order for this to be fixed I believe." Zeke said sighing.

"What though? We don't really have any money, I mean come on now. We're at a Sonic, sitting at the tables, and only having a drink when we're all starving." Chad replied, sipping his lemon-berry slush.

"Only being able to get drinks here isn't that bad though, I love Sonic." Jason replied smiling.

"Okay, yes Sonic Drive-Ins are great. But focus!" Troy replied, exasperated. Jason and Chad seemed exceedingly dull sometimes.


Gabriella looked back at the McKessie's back door one more time before hitting speed dial one on her phone.

"Hello?" Troy asked, picking up his phone.

"Hey." Gabriella whispered back. "How are things going there?"

"Well, we met today and tried to figure something out, but all we got done was discussing which slush from Sonic was better." He replied, very irritated.

"I'd ask if you're kidding me, but then I realize who started this mess in the first place." She replied, sitting on Taylor's old swing set.

"You have any ideas?"

"Nope, none at the moment."

"Gabriella?"

Gabriella jumped, and turned around to come face to face with Taylor, who looked anything but happy.

"I gotta go." She quickly said, hanging up the phone.

"So, who are you talking to in my backyard at 10 at night?" She asked, arms crossed.

"Um, well-" Gabriella started, but Taylor interrupted.

"How could you talk to Troy? Far as I knew, we weren't going to talk to the guys now, or ever again!" She yelled at Gabriella.

"Ok, here's the deal Taylor." Gabriella replied, now very irritated that she wasn't even allowed to talk to her own boyfriend. "Me and Troy are boyfriend and girlfriend. I know that you and Chad were, but aren't now because he made a very stupid mistake, but I'm not losing my boyfriend just because he's your ex's best friend. Both me and Troy are Switzerland on this, got it?"

The two of them glared at each other for about thirty seconds before Taylor turned quickly around and marched back into her house and slamming the door.

Gabriella sighed and picked up her phone and dialed Troy again.

"Is everything alright?" Asked an anxious Troy.

"I'm not sure if I'm very welcome in Taylor's house at the moment." She sighed back in reply.


Chad Danforth was almost always a happy person. He was always smiling and always joking, but now, after dumping Taylor McKessie, not so happy. Not too happy at all. He could barely sleep, let alone concentrate on anything, or eat….. and Chad Danforth loved to eat.

"Chad! What's wrong with you! You have never not wanted any of my fried chicken!" His mother yelled at him a week after the incident as he and his parents sat at the dinner table.

"Sorry Mom." He replied and continued to push the food around his plate, not really paying attention to anything. She continued to watch him irritated before snapping her fingers in his face, making him jump.

"What did you do?" She asked assuming and apparently assuming right when he looked up at her pathetically.

"Jason dared me last Saturday to dump Taylor. I did figuring that I would ask her out right away afterwards, but when I dumped her she said 'fine' and walked away. Now she won't even let me talk to her." He replied, still pushing his food around on his plate, and not really realizing that he told his parents.

His dad dropped his fork and shook his head, "Why would you do that? You possibly just lost out on the best thing that ever happened to you."

"Because I'm stupid. I can't think of anything to fix it either." Chad replied, moving his plate to the middle of the table so he could slam his head down on the table.

"I'll loan you the money that you'll no doubt need to fix this, but you have to pay me back within six months, got it?" His father asked, pulling out his wallet.

"Sure…." Chad sighed, turning his blood shot eyes to look at his father.


"Um, hi Gabriella."

Gabriella turned away from her locker in shock to find Taylor standing next to her, looking down in shame.

"I'm not the black plague anymore? I'm worthy enough to be able to spend time with my best friend and my boyfriend?" She asked, turning back to her locker. Taylor hadn't talked to her for four days now, which proved very difficult when you were staying in the same room for three of those days.

"I'm sorry. I'm being stupid. Apparently all of us are." She said, glaring at Chad as he passed by.

"It's okay. Just let me talk to who I want to. I'm not putting up with people who tell me who and who I can't talk to." Gabriella replied, shutting her locker. Taylor smiled back.

"Deal." She said happily and hugged Gabriella.

"Just to let you know also, Troy tried for two hours to stop Chad, so could you possibly forgive him too?" Gabriella asked as they started to walk to class.

"Fine, I'll forgive Troy." She replied as they walked into their chemistry class.

"So how are you feeling then?" Gabriella asked skeptically.

"I really have no idea yet to be honest." Taylor replied sighing.


Wow, ok so I last posted on May 19th…. and it's October 7th…. I'm so sorry you guys! I had really bad writers block though and had no idea where I wanted this to go. Still don't really know where it is going (well for the most part), so any ideas would be really appreciated. Also, I don't own Sonic no matter how much I desperately wish I did. Seriously, you have NO idea how much I did.
