A/N- So yeah I know half of you probably hate me right now but my cousin came and we did a bunch of stuff so I didn't have time to update so I'll have 2 updates today and 3 tomorrow so be looking out. Enjoy the chapter!

Taylor McKessie had finally been released from the hospital. She was in the car with her father on her way home. It was completely silent and every few seconds her father would look over and glare at her.

"Daddy how long is you going to ignore me?" Taylor asked finally breaking the silence.

He didn't anything. He hadn't even grounded her just the silent treatment and mean looks. She would have much rather had been grounded.

They finally arrived at home. She walked inside the house and didn't hear a peep. Her father spoke, "Go outside for a minute."

She obeyed him and walked outside. As soon as she stepped out the door "SURPRISE!" All of her friends and family were there.

"Were you surprised?" Chad asked Taylor as he noticed that she was shaking in fear.

"Yeah I didn't know what was going on. Really I thought this would be the last thing I got from how my dad is mad at me," Taylor admitted.

"I know I was surprised when he told me too I thought he wanted to kill me. Then your brother Travone has been on my case since we got here, but I don't want you to worry about anything just have fun and take it easy. I love you," Chad said.

"I love you too." Chad leaned in and kiss until Travone came over and pulled them apart. "Tay, don't you want to get into some party clothes?" Travone said, "It would be way more fun then passing spit with Chad."

"Ok yeah I'll be back tell everyone I'm getting dressed," Taylor said.

On the way to her room she grabbed Sharpay and Gabriella.

"Tay! I'm so happy you're finally out of the hospital!" Gabriella hugged her best friend.

"Yeah glad you're out Tay," Sharpay hugged her.

"What did you want us up here for?" Gabriella asked.

"I need you guys help on picking out some clothes," Taylor said, "I have no idea on what to wear." Taylor went to her closet and started throwing out everything she had. "I kind of want to look good for Chad."

"Oh okay I understand now just leave it to us we'll work it out for you," Sharpay said. "Get out!"

"I'm going, I'm going," Taylor moaned going outside her door.

A couple of minutes later the door opened and Sharpay pulled her in.

"After looking through all the cute clothes you have that you don't wear we've finally come up with something," Gabriella said happily.

"Thanks," Taylor said.

"You should really consider wearing some of these other clothes. They are really cute and would make Chad go crazy," Sharpay said.

"I'll think about it," she said pushing them out the door.

She put on a brown and white striped Hot Kiss flutter sleeve tank, denim Hot Kiss skinny capris, and white buckle sandals.

She finished getting dressed and opened the door to let them back in.

"Perfect!" Sharpay said cheerfully.

"Except tuck the shirt and put on that brown Hollister belt lying on the bed," Sharpay said.

Gabriella grabbed some Hollister Ryder perfume and sprayed it on her. "Guys love this," Gabriella said.

"Okay now you're all set go downstairs and party like a rock star!" Sharpay said pushing her out the door.

Taylor went downstairs and everyone was on her. She got asked all types of questions about what happened. She had told the story at least 7 times before Chad came and rescued her.

"Thanks," Taylor mumbled.

"You looked like you were about to die over there," Chad said.

"I was my grandmas, aunts, uncles, and cousins have been busy bugging me since I got here. The only people I have even talked to are you, Sharpay and Gabriella. I haven't had a chance to say anything to the rest of the gang."

"Jason and Kelsi haven't gotten here yet so you've only missed Troy and Zeke. More importantly damn you look good. I don't even see a scar on you."

Taylor laughed, "There's this thing called make-up and most of them are on my side anyway."

"Taylor! Where have you been it's time to cut the cake?" Her mother said pulling her away.

"This cake is beautiful!" Taylor exclaimed.

"Yup and Zeke baked it vanilla your favorite," Sharpay bragged.

"Thank you Zeke!" she said giving him a hug.

"Anything for a friend."

"Hi Tay," Troy said.

"Hey Troy I haven't seen you today!"

"There's so many it's been kind of hard to get to you."

"Yeah," Taylor said before being pulled away again by her little sister.

"Tay you need to see some of the presents you got!"

Taylor laughed, "Okay I'll open my presents everybody!"

Taylor opened up all her presents and thanked everyone. She had gotten some amazing presents but her favorites were the Babyphat stage model kit Gabriella had got and the tickets to the Usher concert she wanted Chad had gotten for her.

Taylor was outside in the front yard when she saw a red Dodge Durango. Out came Kelsi and Jason.

"Hey Taylor sorry we're late," Jason said giving her a hug.

"Yeah it was all Jason's fault," Kelsi said.

"It's okay as long as you made it."

"Hey can I borrow my girlfriend for a minute," Chad interrupted.

Taylor smiled, "Yeah what is it."

"I want to talk in private."

Chad dragged her all the way upstairs. They stopped in the hallway in front of her room.

"I'm really sorry that all this happened but I'm glad it has a happy ending. I don't think that I could live with myself if something bad had of happened to you."

"Chad I don't really want to talk about this. Look I'm okay I'm fine walking just some bruising and a little pain."

"I know but it's just that I love you so much and I will do anything to make sure you're happy."

"I'm very happy and I'm glad that you are my boyfriend. It makes me happy to know that despite everything that happened we are together going stronger than ever before."

"I know what you mean and I love you so much."

"I love you too Chad." Chad leaned in and gave her a passionate kiss on her lips. She pushed him up against the wall and he moved his hand down to a butt. He moved her lips from hers down to her neck.

Travone was coming out of the bathroom when he saw the last thing he wanted to. Chad Danforth was mauling his little sister like she was a piece of chicken. He was pissed so he charged full force at Chad knocking him into the wall. They started to wrestle each other and Travone had managed to pull a piece of Chad's hair.

Chad was pissed off even more so he started throwing punches that were landing straight into Travone's face. Travone escaped his aim with a black eye and ripped out one of Chad's earrings. Despite the pain Chad was in he wasn't going to give up so he continued to throw punches landing Travone a broken nose. Travone punches him back with more force considering he was stronger busting his lip with one punch.

Chad fights him off of him and pushes him into a wall knocking a picture on top of his head. Travone punches him in the chest almost knocking the wind out of him but Chad karate flips him onto his back. Travone gets up pushes him against the wall landing several blows to him in the stomach.

Chad had to stop the punches from coming before he could do anything so he kicked him where the sun don't shine making him fall to ground. It works for a second until Travone trips him making him fall on the ground beside him. Chad gets back up and before Travone can get up he starts kicking him as hard as he can.

Travone finally gets up after almost being crippled and pushes Chad up against the wall and pulls out a pocketknife. He puts it to his throat.

"Travone don't do that!" Taylor screams.

"Shut up Taylor this is what he deserves!" Travone yells back.

"No! I'm calling the police!" Taylor cries pulling out her cell.

"Put the phone down!"

"No!"

"If you don't then your boy here will die!" Travone yelled tightening his grip on Chad.

"Taylor just go before you get hurt I can handle it," Chad says.

"No Chad I'm leaving."

"Both of you shut up!"

"What the hell is going on?" Mr. McKessie yells once he gets up the stairs.

"Daddy stop Travone he's trying to kill Chad!"

"Son put the knife down!"

He listened to his father and let Chad go. "Now we are going to go downstairs and act like human beings! If you have a problem with someone you talk it out! You are people not wild animals! Travone if you ever pull anything like this again your ass is mine! You leave that young man alone! Do I make myself clear?" Mr. McKessie screamed at the top of his lungs.

"Yes sir and yes daddy," echoed the hallway.

"Travone get your ass to the bathroom and clean yourself up and Taylor take Chad to your bathroom and get him cleaned up."

Taylor's dad quietly exited the scene as if nothing had happened. Taylor dragged Chad to her room before anything else could go down. Taylor looked at the condition Chad was in. His clothes were ripped, his lip was busted and bloody, his ear was dripping blood all over the floor, and he had a look on his face that could kill. Taylor gave him some clothes of her dad's for him to put on. He took off his shirt revealing the bruises that Travone had just given him. Taylor flinched at the sight of the blood.

"I'll go get dressed in the bathroom."

When he came out Taylor was lying on the bed crying. Chad sat down beside her and put her on his lap. "Why you crying?"

"Because it was all my fault. Travone could have killed you and it would have been my fault."

"No, it's not your fault. It's nobody's fault Travone just has some kind of mental problem. He needs to be in some type of psychiatric hospital."

Taylor laughed at him. "What?" he said, "He is crazy."

"I know but you said psychiatric. I didn't even know you knew what it meant."

Chad pouted, "I'm not stupid just not a brainiac like you."

They kissed again until they heard a ring at the door. They both went downstairs so they could see who it was. Mrs. McKessie answered the door.

"May I help you?" she said.

"Yes, is this the home of Taylor McKessie?"

"Yes it is that's my daughter is there something she can help you with?"

"I just wanted to apologize for what happened. The man that was in the car who was also killed was my brother. I'm glad that she survived and something good came out of this. I can assure you that my brother wasn't driving that car though. Somebody set him up because the police took the prints on the steering wheel and they weren't his. I believe they were his best friends but he fled the scene and the police haven't found him yet. Anyway I baked a cake and I hope that she heals well."

"Thank you miss. I appreciate you coming over here. I'm sorry about your brother and I hope that the person who really did this is found and put in jail," Taylor said emerging from the crowd.

"What the heck is going on?" Travone said.

"You!" the lady said.

"What me?"

"You're Travone his best friend. You were the one driving the car I know you were! Somebody call the police he belongs in jail!" the lady screamed in hysterics.

"It all fits together and I think I can remember him from the scene," Chad thought. He got out of the crowd of people to somewhere in private and called the police.

Travone was about to run but Mr. McKessie grabbed him before he could go anywhere. "Young man you aren't going anywhere!"

"Travone is this true?" Mrs. McKessie asked in near tears.

"No mom dad I don't know what she's talking about she just wants to pen this on someone!"

"Then you wouldn't mind the police taking fingerprints," Chad spoke up.

"What police?"

"I called them," he said.

Sure enough the police arrived a few minutes later and cuffed Travone. They carried him off in the police car for questioning.

Later that night

Everyone had gone home and Taylor was resting in her bed. She had dozed off into sleep when she heard something on her balcony. She got up and opened it to reveal Chad standing there in nothing but a T-shirt and his basketball shorts.

"Can you come out so I can talk to you?" Chad asked.

"Yeah hold on," Taylor replied. She only had on a white tank top and her pajama bottoms so she grabbed her white and yellow Hollister hoodie.

She went out on the balcony with Chad to make sure her parents didn't hear her up.

"How are you holding up?" Chad asked wrapping his arms around her.

"Okay I guess it's just that I would have never thought my own brother was the person who almost killed me. I guess there were signs."

"Taylor he's a bad person. Just forget about him and what happened. How do you feel physically?"

"I'm a little sore and I have a headache but the doctor said because of the severity of the concussion I would probably have pretty bad headaches for a couple of months but they will eventually all go away."

"But other than that you're good right?"

"Yeah, what about you that was quite and fight with you and my brother. I saw those bruises. You should be at home resting instead of here. Chad I'm fine you don't have to check on me in the middle of the night."

"I know I'm sorry but I couldn't sleep because you were on my mind. I just needed to see you for myself to make sure you were okay. Don't trip off of me because I'm okay I've had way worse. I'm going home and I don't want you on the phone with Gabriella all night okay. Get some sleep."

"Chad."

"Alright I'm gone," he said climbing down.

"And you're going to get enough climbing up here because one day you and Troy are going to fall and busts your big lunkheads on the ground," Taylor laughed.

Chad laughed and blew her a kiss.
