Madeline looked terrified knowing her mom was being hurt. She didn't know what to do. All she could think of was calling for her dad.

"DADDY!" She cried jumping off the couch.

Troy finished putting his shirt on and walked out of the bathroom. He then heard Sharpay scream his name, and then Madeline. He walked down the hall to find Madeline standing in the middle of the living room crying. He picked up his pace and walked faster towards her.

"What's wro—"

He looked over to where Madeline was pointing it at and rushed over to Sharpay who was trying to get loose from some drunken man. Troy pulled the man away from her as hard as he could. He a little scared that the man would fight back as he could smell the strong alcohol from the man's mouth.

"WHAT THE HELL?" Mike screamed falling to the floor.

"Who the hell are you?" Troy asked.

Troy wrapped his arms around Sharpay who was shaking like crazy. He placed a kiss on her head and held her tighter.

"Stay away from her." Troy said quietly as Mike stood up to walk towards them.

"You stay away from her," Mike barked trying to pull Sharpay away, but she just held onto Troy tighter.

"I'M ALLOWED TO BE NEAR HER." Troy shouted.

"WHO SAID?" Mike yelled back.

"I did." Sharpay spoke.

"I'M GOING TO GET WHAT I WANT AND WHAT I WANT IS YOU!" Mike growled storming towards Sharpay.

Sharpay clung onto Troy tighter. Mike turned around and found Madeline standing, crying. He walked after her.

"DO NOT TOUCH HER!" Troy slowly let go of Sharpay going after Madeline.

Mike tried to grab the little girl; only Madeline managed to run off towards Troy.

"What do you want?" Troy asked loudly.

Troy let go of her next to Sharpay and shoved Mike out of the house. He slammed the door shut and locked it. Madeline rushed to her room, where she mainly ran to when she was scared. Troy was glad that she wanted to be out of this scene. He didn't want to put this image in his daughter's head. For all he knew, it could haunt her for the rest of her life. Little kids did get affected by any physical abuse or anything that looks like danger through a child's eyes.

"You okay?" He turned around and asked Sharpay.

"That was so scary." Sharpay stood up giving Troy a hug.

"It's okay. You're fine." Troy hugged her back.

"I thought I was going to die." Sharpay smacked her head against his shoulder.

"You're fine. Don't worry." Troy rubbed her back.

"Hmm…" Madeline's cry came as she walked down the hall.

Madeline slowly walked over to her parents and looked up at them. Troy removed his one hand off of Sharpay's waist and picked Madeline up. He could tell she was scared too. Madeline rested her little head against Troy's shoulder. Troy exhaled and rested his head lightly on Madeline's head while rubbing Sharpay's back and holding her close to him. Madeline let out a soft cry and buried her face against his neck, making her usual mumbling noise.

…………….

Troy walked back to the living room checking the door to make sure it lock and all the windows were lock too. He turned off the lights and checked every room in the house. He didn't want some stranger walking in again. Once he was sure the windows were lock he walked back to the bedroom and watched Sharpay sitting on the bed reading some book.

"Ready to call it a night?" He asked standing by the light switch.

Sharpay nodded and sat her book down on the nightstand. She tucked herself under the cover and waited for Troy to get in as well. As soon as he was fully laid down, he could feel Sharpay snuggle close to him. He got an idea that she was feeling still scared.

Troy thought of ways to bring up the conversation without him sounding so noisy, it was important for him to know anyways. She's is his wife and he needed to know everything to be able to keep her safe and secure under his arms.

"Who was that guy?" He whispered in the dark.

"My friend's crazy husband." Sharpay said while Troy wrapped his arm around her waist.

"And what did he want with you?" Troy asked looking at her through the darkness.

Even though it was dark, he could perfectly make up her face, her eyes, and her whole body. He memorized every bit of her.

"I don't know! He's drunk. Couldn't you smell him?" Sharpay frowned.

"Has he ever done that to you before?" Troy asked.

Sharpay raised her eyebrow in the position of trying to think back. Then she shook her head.

"Nope." She answered clearly.

"Sounds insane." He murmured kissing the side of her head softly.

Sharpay looked up at him and kissed him with deep passion. Troy responded quickly and pulled her closer to him to depend the kiss. He dove for her, his body half way on top of her as they continued to kiss. Sharpay's hands made it all the way tot his hair, forcefully running her fingers through it. Troy rubbed her waist as t heir kiss became more and more passionate.

"I think we both need to go home—all three of us." Troy broke the kiss.

"I agree." Sharpay lightly kissed him.

Troy explained to her about the whole moving back to the house and going over there with Madeline. He told her all about how it just needed a little renovating and it'll be as good as new. She seemed to have liked the idea, but hated knowing she had to pack up stuff and then unpack them and set the house up and organize things. She wasn't looking forward to that, but it would be nice to get back home. It is their home and they both belonged in it together.

"I don't want anyone crazy going after you or Madeline." Troy said seriously.

"That was just weird. I didn't know. I didn't see it coming." Sharpay nodded her head.

"Why was he here? Your friend, what did she do to him?" He asked.

"He said they got in an argument. He's usually a really cool guy. But he does get into alcohol a lot and it's a little scary. But it's never been that bad!" She exclaimed.

"That was horrible. That did scare me too." Troy admitted.

"Well I had you to protect me." Sharpay kissed is cheek.

Troy kissed her deeply once again.

"I love you, Shar." Troy said in a soft voice, as they pulled apart for air.

"I love you too." Sharpay smiled feeling Troy's warm body close to her.

She cuddled close to him, feeling secure and suddenly sleepy. Troy rested his chin on the top of her head and closed his eyes.

Not a lot of drama……….I'll fast forward a few months next chapter. Don't worry, you won't miss anything. I just don't have anything plan for the next day or something and I really don't want to write about them packing their stuff to move, that's kind a boring. LOL.
