Angelo walked up to Troy in the locker room and sat down. "Bolton we need to talk."

Troy looked up from his math book, "Ok.

"Its about my sister." Angelo said.

"What about her?" Troy asked.

"You guys need to break up." Angelo told him.

Troy looked at him, confused. "And why would I do that?"

"Because I know that you were dared to ask her out." Angelo said.

Troy looked him with a smirk, "And I know that you were the one who came up with the dare. Now your sister and our friends are gonna hang out at my place tonight. .So don't try me. I actually like your sister so leave me alone." Troy gets his stuff and leaves.

~Later That Night~

"Ok I got the drinks." Gabriella said, walking out of the kitchen with a couple bottles of beer.

Troy smirked, "Easy there, killer. You know what happened last time you got drunk."

Gabriella gave him the finger, "I get crazy when I go to parties. But unlike Sharpay and Chad, I can hold my liquor."

"Look just shut up, Gabster. I had a lot of beer that one time…just that one time."

Kelsi twisted up her face, "You almost threw up on me. Thank God I moved in enough time."

"Chad is…Chad." Troy said. Chad was like Marcus-there were no ways to describe him.

Chad looked at them in mock anger, "Guys I am right here." He takes a bottle and opens it.

"Ok lets watch a movie." Troy said. "All action. Bad Boys, Bad Boys II Mr. and Mrs. Smith, Transformers, and Rush Hour 1, 2, and 3."

"I vote for Rush Hour." Jason said. The rest agreed so Troy put it into the DVD player.

"Ok so are you guys gonna talk through the movie?" Troy asked. Gabriella and Zeke were the only people who he could go to the movies with because everyone else talked to much.

"No." They all replied in unison.

Troy smiled, "Good." He grabbed the bowl of popcorn and took a huge handful.

"You know what's weird?" Chad asked. "Our parents are always out of the country."

"It's not like they neglect us." Sharpay said. "They just like to travel."

Troy groaned, "Shut up."

Gabriella grabbed the popcorn and winked at Troy. She a kernel at Chad and it landed in his hair. Troy started laughing.

Chad looked up at them, "What's so funny?"

"Its an inside thing." Troy told him.

Chad nodded and turned back around. Gabriella put her head on Troy's shoulder and giggled. She's so cute…wait the hell. I'm Troy Bolton. I don't call people cute…except for my cousin, Andy. Ugh, Troy thought. He shuddered.

"Are you alright?" Gabriella asked.

"Yeah just a little cold." Troy lied. Am I falling for Montez? I cant. This was just a stupid dare. Falling for her was not part of the dare. Troy looked down at Gabriella, who had her glasses on and was studying the movie.

"Well it is February. Turn off the fan." Gabriella demanded. Troy got up and turned off the ceiling fan. "Are you alright? I know we're watching a movie but you seem out of it."

"I'm fine." Troy lied. "Just a little tired."

Gabriella shoved him, "Could you get any more boring?"

Troy scoffed, "It has been a long day."

"You wanna talk?" Gabriella asked.

Troy shrugged, "Maybe a bit later."

Gabriella smiled, "I'm holding you to that, Bolton."

Chad stood up and stretched, "I'm gonna go home. See you guys at school tomorrow."

Everyone else besides Gabriella all decided they should leave too. Once they left Gabriella turned to Troy, "So what killed your mood today?"

"You waste no time, huh?" Troy teased.

"I'm your girlfriend…and I want to be your friend and confidant too. Tell me." Gabriella said.

Troy wanted so badly to tell Gabriella the truth and just get it over with. In his mind, she would accept him and they would just be happy. But, Troy was smart and he knew that wouldn't happen. Gabriella would either a) cuss him out b) dump him c) be heart-broken d) all of the above. "Your brother doesn't want us together."

Gabriella's expression took a turn downward. "What do you mean?"

"He doesn't want you to get hurt and thinks this a mistake." Troy said, honestly. Even though he left out some vital information.

"Don't listen to my dumbass brother. He's been through a million cheap whores and not once have I said anything so he should fuck off." Gabriella said, fuming.

Troy took her hand, "Calm down."

Gabriella stood up and grabbed her bag, "I think I should get going."

"Stay with me tonight." Troy said.

Gabriella rolled her eyes, "I'm not in the mood to have sex Troy."

"We don't have to have sex. Just stay with me tonight." Troy begged.

Gabriella smiled, "Alright. But, I don't have any pajamas."

"You're wearing sweats, but you can borrow one of my shirts. One of the stupid ones Marcus buys me." Troy told her.

"Wow has a girl ever just slept over?" Gabriella asked.

Troy shook his head, "You're special. The only girls that have ever slept over are my girl cousins."

Gabriella giggled, "Ooh I'm special. Now lets go get me a shirt before I change my mind." They get up and walk to his bedroom. "Why are all the shirts Marcus get you in the back of your closet?"

Troy chuckled, "I don't like to wear them." Troy tosses one to her that said 'I'm sorry, your complaint is way too whiny to be received'. "They are funny though."

"Lets do something fun." Gabriella said.

"I could have sworn you said you didn't want to have sex with me tonight." Troy replied.

"We don't always have to have sex, Bolton." Gabriella snapped.

"Well that's my definition of fun, Montez." Troy snapped back.

Gabriella rolled her eyes, "Why do I go out with you?"

"I don't know. I'm selfish, pigheaded, stubborn, I don't really care about other people's feelings, I like sex…a lot, I'm very blunt, and I'm not that romantic. This is probably the most romantic thing I have ever done in my life." Troy answered.

"You irritate me." Gabriella said.

"You're cute when you're mad at me." Troy said.

"Compliments, sex, and gifts don't distract me easily Troy." Gabriella explained to him.

"Ok then. Lets go to sleep." Troy said turning off the lights.

"You still irritate me, Bolton." Gabriella said in the dark.

"Montez, shut up and go to sleep."

~The End~

Sorry I didn't update sooner. I restarted this chapter about a million times before I stuck with a plot. Gabriella should be finding out about the dare in the next few chapters.

PS: should I write a chapter where Gabriella gets into a fistfight with Troy's ex?
