Chapter 8 – The Truth and A Near Death

"Yeah?" He asked, turning round slowly.

"How about we stay in contact? I'd love for Troy to meet you if we ever came back out here." I said happily.

"Oh." He said sadly. "I mean, that would be great! I'll give you my number." He said, grabbing a pen out of his pocket and piece of paper. He wrote the number then slid it under my door.

"Wont have to carry it around with you now, will you?" He laughed weakly, and then walked off.

I stood there for a moment, then cleared my head and knocked on Casey's door.

"Ooh la la." She laughed.

"You look great yourself. You ready?" I asked.

"Oui!" She grinned then closed the door behind her.

"Okay.." I nodded then knocked on Taylor's door while Casey got Sharpay.

"Ready?" I grinned.

"Yep!"

4 Hours later, me Sharpay Casey and Taylor, were what most people would call it, drunk. We thought of ourselves, as happy, energetic women.

"Hey you, want to come back to my place!" Sharpay winked at some random man.

"Sharpay you're married!" Taylor slurred.

"No I'm not, you are!" She giggled.

"Who am I married to?" Taylor asked.

"CHAD!" I butted in.

"Oh yeah, I remember him!" Taylor said then burst into laughter.

"I'm not married am I?" Sharpay asked confused.

"No your not!" Casey giggled.

"I love pie." I giggled to myself.

"Let's go on karaoke!" Casey squealed then dragged us all up onto the stage.

"Okay, let's sing.." Taylor started, downed another shot then passed out.

"Uh oh, someone's in trouble." Sharpay sang.

"I think were the ones in trouble.." I doubtfully.

"Okay let's sober these girls up!" I heard someone shout. After the shouted that, I felt two buckets of waters thrown at me.

"AAAAH! DO YOU KNOW WHO MY HUSBAND IS!?" I yelled at them then paused. "Wait, I don't even know who my husband is.."

"Okay girls, we've called an ambulance for your friend.." A woman said.

"Who?" Casey asked.

"Your friend, on the floor over there.."

Casey looked over to her and shrugged. "Well I don't know her." She laughed then began to walk away.

"CASEY!" Sharpay shouted. They were both drenched in water as well.

"What?" She asked.

"I think that's Taylor!" Sharpay gasped.

"Who?"

"T-A-Y-L-O-R!" She spelt out.

"Sharpay you can't just go making up letters like that, it's against the rules!" Casey cried.

The woman behind the bar filled up another bucket of water and then threw it over Casey.

"UGH!" She said waving her arms about.

"OKAY MOVE BACK, CAN WE SEE THE WOMAN ON THE FLOOR!" A paramedic shouted as he came through the doors.

----

"How is she?" Sharpay asked me as I sat down beside her. All three of us had finally sobered up and were at the hospital.

"She's fine, she's just woken up, so we'll be able to see her soon. The doctor said she'll be fine, she'll just have a huge hangover and head ache for a few days."

"Oh my god. Were we really that drunk?"

"I can't remember that much.." Casey said rubbing her head.

"What time is it?" Sharpay asked.

"It's 2am.." I said looking at my watch.

"We have a flight at 7am."

"Guess were staying here for another few days then." I shrugged then got my phone out and dialled Troy's number, it was off so I left a message.

"Troy, were not leaving today, Taylor's in hospital, she's going to be fine – we just got too drunk, but don't worry we'll be home in the next few days – I'll call you soon, bye."

"Taylor Mckessie?" A woman called out.

We all stood up and she motioned for us to follow her. We followed her down the hallway to the last room. We walked in to see Taylor with a bruise on her head lying in a bed.

"How are you sweetie?" Sharpay asked softly.

"I feel like my heads about to explode." Taylor cried.

"Were really sorry.." Casey said sadly.

"It's not your fault, I drank too much." Taylor smiled weakly.

"Yeah but we were no help. Even after you did pass out – we didn't even call an ambulance." I whispered.

"Look girls, you drank as much as I did, possibly more. I'm surprised your babies are okay.." She said looking at Sharpay and Casey.

"Everything's fine.. The doctor checked us all over earlier. He did say were lucky there was no damage. I'm never drinking again." Sharpay said quietly, tears forming in her eyes.

"How long do I have to stay here?" Taylor asked.

"The doctor said you'll be out within 2 hours, he just needs to do another check up, and make sure you have your tablets to get your blood pressure back down to normal, and then we can go."

"Good, I wouldn't want us to miss our flight."

"Tay, were gunna go home in a few days, I think we all need the rest." Casey said.

"No! It's my mum's birthday tomorrow! She's flying in, I have to be there – she hasn't seen Tallulah in ages!" Taylor cried.

"Taylor, we won't make it." I said.

"Oh, we will. You three go back to the hotel now, get everything ready, the bags and suitcases, take them down to the limo then come back here to pick me up." Taylor said proudly.

"Were not leaving you Hun."

"Fine, Casey and Gabi – you two go!" Taylor said.

"Maybe we can make it.." I said slowly. "Okay, we'll get everything in the limo and be back here as soon as we can!"

----

"Can all passengers on the flight to New York, please make their way to Gate 9!" A voice came through the speakers.

"Are you sure you girls are okay?" My mom asked, worried.

"Were fine mom, it was just a rough night, all good now." I said reassuringly.

"Okay, we'll take the children off you for the flight, so can have some sleep." She said, taking Imogen and Jared off me and handing Jared to Mark.

I smiled at her then headed to Gate 9. I handed our tickets over, then we all got on the plane.

"I'm just going to head off to sleep.." Taylor said, then turned over.

"What an exciting holiday, Gabriella met a new man, Sharpay practically owns every clothing in Paris, my baby could of died because of how much I drank, and Taylor nearly died." Casey said sarcastically.

"I think its best, we keep me meeting James quiet – I don't want Troy to over react, me having a friend who's a man.."

"The way you done with him and Amy?" Sharpay asked.

"It's not the same." I said shaking my head.

"How?"

"Would you like food, magazines, or drinks?" A member of the cabin crew asked.

"Can I have today's newspaper please." I asked politely then handed the money over.

"Gabi, how's it not the same?" Sharpay repeated.

I froze as I seen the front page picture. "Because I didn't kiss James in Paris. Troy's kissed Amy while I've been away." I whispered, tears rolling down my cheeks.
