The comfortable silence that had settled in the Montez household broke when Gabriella through back her head and laughed at her boyfriend's attempt to bring a bowl of M&Ms closer using only his feet. The blue ceramic bowl, filled with candy-coated chocolate, sat on the coffee table in front of the couch that Gabriella and Troy were currently tangled up on.

"You are such a lazy bum" she giggled swatting his feet away and grabbing the bowl with her hands.

After taking a handful of M&Ms (only green and blue of course) she passed it over to a grinning Troy. He laughed at her pickiness and popped a red one in his mouth. The couple had been hanging out together at Gabriella's enjoying the fact that their crazy week had come to a close and at the moment, nothing demanded their attention beside's each other.

Gabriella leaned over and placed her head on Troy's shoulder, "Did you ever play that game with M&Ms where for every M&M in your cup you had you say something about yourself?"

"You mean the one that you play, like, at the beginning of the year?"

She nodded and placed a green M&M on her tongue.

"Yeah, I liked that game, but that's probably just because we got candy in class" Troy laughed before taking another handful.

Gabriella looked up at the blue-eyed boy, "Do you want to play?"

He smiled at his girlfriend's innocence and spontaneity, "The M&M game?"

"Yeah."

"Sure, you go first"

Gabriella took another of handful of candy and after sorting out any piece that wasn't green or blue (and ignoring the laughs from the boy beside her) she shifted her body so she was laying on Troy, their bare feet touching at the end of the couch. She held up a blue M&M. "I stole your blue striped shirt and sometimes wear it to bed"

Troy's body moved as he laughed, "I thought I was going crazy when I couldn't find it!"

"Sorry," she giggled, "I'll give it back."

"No way, I want you to wear it."

"Okay, but can you take it back for a little while, it doesn't smell like you right now"

Gabriella couldn't see the grin on Troy's face, "Sure, just like the sweatshirt."

Gabriella made Troy where his red Wildcat sweatshirt every so often as to not lose the scent. He didn't mind at all, no one made him feel as special as she did when she came waltzing into school with his number on her back. He remembered back to the first time she had him wear it after he had given it to her; she had gotten home from a rough day at school and was almost in tears when she wrapped it around herself only to find that his familiar scent had disappeared. She had called him right away and asked him to wear it the next day at school, of course he agreed within seconds; her sad voice was enough to convince him of anything.

Gabriella snapped him back to the present when he felt her bare toes rub against his own and her hand run up and down his upper leg.

"It's your turn you know." she nudged him.

Troy picked up a brown M&M from the pile in his hand, "Sharpay made me cry in second grade."

Her entire body jolting from laughter, Gabriella had to catch herself before she fell off the couch. "Are you serious?!"

"Yes, and it was rather traumatic, thank you very much."

"What happened?" she giggled.

Blushing and grinning at the same time Troy held on to his girlfriend before she tumbled onto the floor, "Let's just say it involved glue and glitter and all my clothes"

This only caused Gabriella to laugh harder, but as she continued to giggle she suddenly felt Troy's body shift and his lips pressed against her own.

"You're just trying to shut me up" she grinned as he pulled back.

"Maybe" he said softly leaning in to kiss her again.

"But it's your turn now" he told her just centimeters away from her lips.

"Tease" she mumbled under her breath as she adjusted herself back onto his stomach. She grabbed another M&M and sighed, trying to think of something to say.

"Tell me" he said to her as he stroked her hair, "something that you've never told anyone else."

He silently wondered if he had asked too much, Gabriella was sensitive and might not want to reveal her secrets, but it was only a few seconds before she replied. "You made me cry last week."

Troy's breathing stopped the second those words came out of her mouth. He had made her cry? He suddenly felt like a traitor, a player, anything and everything horrible.

"How?" he asked, racking his mind for what he could have done.

"It's really stupid, I didn't tell you because I knew I was overreacting."

Dropping the M&Ms he was holding back into he bowl he reached down to put his hand over hers, intertwining their fingers, "I still want to know Brie."

Gabriella let out a small breath, "Well, I was talking to Sage Eden and Nichole Mariano and they started telling me how I about to be the first to break your three-month rule but I had no idea what they were talking about."

Squeezing his blue eyes shut he could already hear the words Gabriella was about to say. Troy had never had a relationship that went past three months, and people at East High construed this to mean something different than it did, which was just that he had never cared enough about the girls he had dated to make it last that long. However, the rumor mill at East High made it out to be that he dumped every girl after three months so he could hook-up with someone new.

"And when they explained it to me I was really surprised, but I wasn't worried. But then, you started getting really busy and I began to wonder…if it was true."

"Oh god" Troy muttered, mentally kicking himself for not warning his beautiful girlfriend about that rumor before hand.

"I should have told you about that Gabs, I'm sorry."

"No, its okay Troy, I realized the next day I was being stupid and just overreacting about something that I didn't even have proof of."

She sighed and snuggled in closer to his body, her long brown curls falling down his chest.

"Let's just forget about it" she said in a sing-songy voice, "and isn't it your turn now?" She asked reaching over to the cedar coffee table, where the blue bowl was now placed, and picked up a single green M&M. She put it into his open palm and waited for his answer.

"The way you make me feel scares the crap out of me."

A smiled crossed Gabriella's face and she reached her arms above her head, wrapping them behind her, around his neck.

"Good. That was my plan" she teased.

Then closing her eyes she took in her surroundings. She wanted to forever remember how Troy smelled, how he felt as he held her, the rhythm of his breathing and the familiar beat of his heart.

"Good Montez" he whispered into her hair as he drew invisible shapes on her stomach, "I'm very glad."

A/N: Again, too rushed? Maybe I just think that because I wrote it and I'm very critical of my work, but let me know. And also, did the mood shift from silly to serious to silly to serious too fast? I think this might be my longest one-shot yet :)

Reviews are love ♥
