WOOH I'm on a roll! Let's give a round of applause for CHAPTER 11!! Thanks for reading!
Alex had arrived at Carla's party with Kendra at his side. The house was humongous and had an indoor pool next to the dance floor. He hardly knew who Carla was, but Alex knew she threw awesome parties. The house was very modern and the walls were painted a clean white. There were neon lights in the corners of the ceilings and there was D.J near the pool. It was almost like a night club.
"Wow. This is awesome," Kendra said as she looked around still holding on to Alex's arm.
He spotted Gabriella and Troy dancing and he felt a shiver of jealousy run down his back. Alex grabbed Kendra's hand and pulled her to the dance floor. They started to dance.
Kendra's forehead touched his and he put his arms at her waist. He was dancing close to her and although under normal circumstances he would find this uncomfortable, today he didn't care.
"I'm thirsty. Wanna get a drink?" Gabriella asked Troy who had been smiling all night. His mouth was probably numb by now. He agreed and she took him by the hand and walked towards the table where the drinks were. As she walked by Alex, she purposefully bumped into him and didn't look back to see his expression.
Troy noticed what had been going on the past week between Alex and her. He sensed anger whenever Gabriella was near Alex and Troy liked it this way.
Alex had had enough. He had to talk to Gabriella.
"I'll be right back." He said holding his index finger in front of Kendra.
He walked over to her and tapped her shoulder.
"Gabriella, I know you're mad at me but we really need to talk," Alex said as both Troy and her turned to look at him. She ignored him and turned to open a Coke can.
Alex grabbed her arm and made her turn around. "Am I speaking Chinese or something?" he joked.
"What is it?" she said as she took a sip of the Coke.
"Why are you mad at me?" he said.
"You lied to me, Alex. You never told me that you and Sharpay were related," she explained. Alex looked at her as if she was crazy.
"I didn't think it was important." He was going to say something else when Gabriella opened her mouth.
"You also left out the little detail that you and Sharpay were trying to separate me and Troy," she said on the verge of tears.
"Who told you that? Gaby, I would never-" seeing that Alex was going to make Gabriella realize that his words were a lie, Troy interrupted.
"Look why don't you go back to California and leave us alone," Troy said while pushing Gabriella closer to him.
"Stay out of it," Alex came closer to Troy trying to be more intimidating.
"Alex, just leave me alone," she whispered and looked down at her feet. It hurt her to say those words. She never thought she would say that to him. He was her friend.
Troy smirked at Alex.
Ryan had been questioning Sharpay about Troy ever since school started. Why was his sister so obsessed over him? He had to know. He followed her as she made her way through the crowd at Carla's party.
"Ryan, go away," Sharpay said.
"No. I'm not going to stop singing until you tell me. The itsy-bitsy spi-" her finger was held to his lips. She took his hand and led him to one of the rooms of the house.
"Okay I'll tell you but you can't tell anyone," she said as she closed the door.
XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO
"Carla? Where's your bathroom?" Gabriella said. Carla pointed down one of the hallways and Gabriella smiled and left.
As she approached the bathroom she heard Sharpay's voice from inside a room. She put her ear to the door and listened.
"This summer at the party we had… Remember the time daddy went to England?" Sharpay started. Ryan nodded waiting for her to carry on. "Troy came to that party. Me and him were fooling around the whole time and he was being very sweet and stuff and nice.." she started to day dream.
"Sharpay!" Ryan clapped his hands for her to snap out of it.
"Anyway, he slept with me that night after we were both drunk. It was fantastic and-" she put her hands to her chest.
"Skip the details," Ryan said waiting for the rest before he asked what the hell was wrong with her.
"Okay. When we got back to school I thought we were together since he was my first and you don't just stop seeing each other after something so personal!" Sharpay raised her voice but then caught herself. Gabriella silently cried outside the door. "But no he still liked Gabriella. Before I knew it, Gabriella had seen me and Troy together. I liked the whole idea thus far and Alex and her were hanging out so I thought there was nothing to worry about. I told Troy that Alex was my cousin and the day after that Gabriella and him were suddenly together." Sharpay said.
That's all Gabriella needed to hear. Troy had lied to her. He had ruined such a great friendship; he had taken Alex away. He was an unfaithful asshole.
Gabriella angrily stormed out of the house. A pair of eyes noticed her.
Hope you liked it! That was a pretty long chapter. Please review!
