A/N: This is the longest written chapter so far. I must warn you about the first part of this chapter. Troy is basically forced to do something to Gabriella. If you don't want to read it, skip to the middle part of the chapter.
Chapter 8
The sound of the doorknob jiggling awoke Gabriella from her sleep. Her brown eyes flew open and she nearly panicked when she felt the arm around her waist. Turning, she sighed in relief finding Troy behind her, sleeping soundly. The jiggling doorknob reminded her of their current situation and she shook Troy gently.
"Troy. Troy, wake up."
He groaned and opened his eyes. "What? What's wrong?"
"Someone's trying to get in the door," she whispered.
He sat up and listened to the voices coming from the other side of the door. "Fuck." He ran a hand through his hair and tried to think of something. "Um. Okay, I know this is going to make you uncomfortable, but I need you to remove your clothes."
"What?"
"It's only to make them think we did something."
"I can't," she said looking down.
"You have to. It's only until I can make them believe I did something to you." He touched her cheek softly. "Do you trust me?"
Her eyes shifted to his and nodded, a single tear sliding down her face. "Yes."
"Then do this one thing for me. Okay?"
"Okay." She reached for the hem of the shirt she was wearing, but didn't raise it. "Could you turn around please?"
"Sure." He turned his head and she undressed. A knock, more like a pound, came at the door and Troy turned slightly to see if she was finished.
"What should I do next?"
"Just lay down," he said, trying not to let the sight of her naked affect him. He stood up and unbuckled his pants before walking over to the door. "Do you guys mind?" he asked when he opened it.
"We were just checking to see what you were doing," Adam said with Roger standing beside him.
"What does it look like?" He motioned to the naked brunette lying down on the bed, her eyes facing the opposite direction.
"Mind if we join?" Roger said, his eyes sweeping over her naked form.
"I…"
"Of course you don't," Adam said, cutting Troy off from what he wanted to say. Adam pushed his way in with Roger following behind.
Troy looked over at Gabriella, her eyes now facing him, fear laced within them. "I do mind, actually."
"Aww, come on Troy. We all share here. Why not share a piece of this lovely body with us?" Adam licked his lips as he pulled Gabriella to her feet. Roger ran a hand along her ass and she whimpered, looking over at Troy.
As much as he wanted to intervene, he didn't know what to do. If he stopped them, then they would get suspicious. In Adam's case, even more suspicious. He watched, horror stricken, as Adam's hand slid between her thighs. His eyes flew to hers and he could tell she was trying not to cry.
"Adam can I go first?" Roger asked.
Adam's green eyes glanced over at Troy's stoic form, a mischievous smirk on his face. "I think since Bolton over here was complaining about being interrupted, he should go first."
Troy's blue eyes widened, but he quickly hid his shock. Seconds later, Gabriella was thrown into his arms. He caught her with ease and looked down at her, her brown eyes pleading with him.
"Go ahead, Troy. We'll wait."
He knew Adam was testing his loyalty to this operation and Troy knew if he didn't participate with this, they would know he wasn't one of them. But if he did this, there would be no doubt that it would break Gabriella completely. He closed his eyes, taking a deep breath before coming to his decision. Opening his blue eyes, he stared at the brunette emotionless and dragged her over to the bed. Throwing her onto the soft surface, he stripped himself of his shirt and pants; boxers included. She watched him, fear and betrayal shining brightly in her brown eyes. He moved to hover over her, catching her waist when she tried to run.
He leaned down, putting his mouth near her ear and whispered, "I'm sorry," before sliding himself inside of her. It was then that she broke and tears spilled out of her eyes. She couldn't believe that the guy she trusted the most was doing this to her.
"Come on, Troy, give it to her hard," Roger said.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry," he whispered as he pounded into her.
After he had done his part, Troy put his pants back on and moved to the corner of the room. He sat there, emotionless, as Roger and Adam continuously raped her. When they finished, the two men left, leaving Troy alone with a broken Gabriella. She laid with her back to him, staring blankly at the wall. Sighing, he walked over to her and sat down beside her.
"Gabriella…" He touched her shoulder and she flinched away. "Gabriella, I'm sorry."
"Why did you let them do that to me?" she asked. "W-Why did you do that to me?"
"What else was I supposed to do? If they find out I won't think twice to rat them out, they'll kill me. Then how would I be able to help the others…to help you?"
She slowly turned on her back and looked at him, her brown eyes showing no life. It broke his heart seeing her like this. "W-Would they really?"
He nodded and touched her cheek, grateful that she didn't flinch this time. "I really am sorry for what I did to you."
"It's okay. I just…I need to rest."
"You want me to take you back to the other room?"
"Yes, please," she said softly, trying not to cry. She stood up and he waited for her to dress. His eyes never left the floor. "Troy." His head snapped up and she stood there, completely clothed, her bottom lip between her teeth.
He stood up and went to the door. He held it open for her, unsure if she wanted him to touch her or not. She walked out of the room and he followed behind, walking to the room where the others were.
"I really hope that you can forgive me completely one day."
"Troy, I said it was okay."
"I know, but…I also know that you're going to need some time before you can trust me again." She looked down, knowing he was right. Hesitantly, he reached his hand up and placed it under her chin, making her look at him. "Just remember I'm here for you, alright?" She nodded. He smiled and kissed her forehead. She flinched slightly, but smiled anyway. "Night, Gabriella."
"Goodnight, Troy." She walked inside the room and he went back to his.

"I want that one, the blond at the end." Sharpay's head snapped up and her eyes widened. She watched as the client walked up to her and took her arm. "Come on blondie, we're gonna have a good time."
Sharpay reluctantly followed him to an empty room and watched as he closed the door before he threw her on the bed. She crawled up to the headboard and pulled her knees against her chest. He smirked and slowly crawled towards her.
"Don't worry," he said, touching her cheek. "I won't bite." He grabbed her by the neck and pushed her onto the bed. "Much."
He pried her arms away from her body and pinned them above her. Sharpay closed her brown eyes and tried to think of a happier time and place, but she wasn't an expert at blocking out things. The second she felt his hand on her chest, her eyes flew open and a sob escaped her lips. He grinned and pressed his lips against her neck.
She wanted to be anywhere, but there. She wanted to be back home. She missed shopping with her mother, planning gala's with her father, and hang with her brother. She couldn't do this anymore. Gathering all the strength she could, she pushed the man off of her and moved away.
"Where do you think you're going?" He grabbed her leg and pulled her back. Turning around, she curled her hand into a fist and connected it with the man's nose. "Bitch!" he yelled as his hand held his nose.
She pushed him away with her foot and got off the bed. She tried to get to the door, but he beat her there. "Move," she said.
"Or what?"
She didn't know what she would do, but she had to think of something fast. He moved towards her and she did a swift kick to his groin. He fell forward and she pushed him out the way of the door. Opening it, she looked around before walking out and closing it behind her. As she moved down the hallway, she heard the door she had just exited open and she began to run. From another doorway, a hand shot out and pulled her into the room. Before she had a chance to scream, a hand covered her mouth and muffled any sound from her lips.
"It's okay, Sharpay, it's just me." Looking up, she looked into Troy's blue eyes and sighed. He removed his hand and let her go. "You alright?"
She nodded. "Yeah. Thanks."
"No problem, but you're not out of the water yet. You and I both know you're not gonna be let off easy for what you did."
"How did you know?"
"I was walking past and I heard the commotion."
"Where is that little slut?!"
Sharpay froze and stared at the closed door. Troy touched her shoulder and she looked at him. "I have to take you out there."
"I know."
"You ready?" She shook her head and he hugged her. "Soon you'll be out of this."
"I wish it was now."
She took a deep breath before allowing Troy to lead her back into the hallway. "Is this who you're looking for?" he asked the five men that were standing there. "I found her trying to escape."
"Good job, Troy," Vernon said. He walked up to Sharpay and grabbed her arm, forcefully. "You know what defiance means, bitch." Troy inwardly cringed, but let Sharpay's arm slip from his grasp.
He watched as Vernon and the other men led Sharpay down the hallway. She turned her head back to Troy and he could see the fear in her eyes. He didn't know how much more of this he could take.
