Chapter 14
"Troy are you sure you don't want to wait a couple more days I mean you just got home on Friday," his mother said as he walked toward the front door. It was Monday and Troy's first day of normal school. He didn't want to go to be truthful but he had to get away from his mother. She was driving him crazy. It seemed like wherever he turned she was there. He could barely get out of the house to see Gabriella and when he did his mother grilled his afterwards all about her. She was starting to drive him insane.
"Mom I need to go to school. I will see you later Gabi is waiting for me," he said.
"Fine but we careful and if you need anything call okay," she called after him.
"Yeah bye," he said as he left the house closing the door behind him. He walked over to Gabriella's house. She was waiting for him, leaning against her father's car. Her dad was driving them to school.
"Hi," she said and he grinned at her. He walked over and kissed her.
"Well hello hello," she said when he pulled back and he laughed.
"You nervous?" she asked.
"No," he told her.
"Well good. Don't worry about anything. If anyone says anything to you or even looks at you funny just tell me I'll take care of it," she told him.
"I'll be fine," he said.
"We have homeroom, english, and history together. We also have lunch together so consider yourself lucky," she said.
"I was hoping to get rid of you actually. You know to work the scene, make my move, pick up some hot chicks," he said.
"Oh really…then you can walk to school," she said and he laughed.
"Joking of course," he told her.
"You better be," she said before flashing him a grin.

School sucked. That was the conclusion Troy had come to. Apparently who he was had gotten around the school. He had a feeling it had everything to do with Chad but he tried to ignore it. By lunch he was in need of a serious pick me up in the form of Gabriella. As soon as he got lunch he looked around the large café. It was crowded and loud. He had a serious headache as it was and this was not going to help. He was half tempted to shut off the implant so he couldn't hear anything. Luckily before he could do that he saw Gabriella rushing towards him.
"I was looking for you come on," she said grabbing him by one arm and pulling him towards a table. She sat him down and sat down next to her.
"This is Jason, Taylor, Kelsi, Zeke, Sharpay, and Ryan," Gabriella said and Troy nodded. He has classed with a couple of them.
"How you doing," she asked him worry on her face.
"Good I guess," he said.
"What do you mean you guess," she asked him.
"Gabi I am fine. My head hurts a little but I am fine," he answered.
"Oh my poor baby," she said and he rolled his eyes.
"You sound like my mother," he said.
"Ew," she said causing him to laugh.
"So Troy you live next door to Gabriella right," Sharpay asked.
"Yep," he said.
"Before we meet he was actually stalking me," Gabriella remarked.
"Okay I wasn't stalking you. I happened to look over in your backyard and there you were with a bathing suit on," he said.
"Yeah sure," she said rolling her eyes.
"Aren't they just adorable," Taylor said smirking and Sharpay laughed. Troy blushed while Gabriella just rolled her eyes.
"So what are you guys doing this weekend?" Zeke asked and Gabriella shrugged.
"Nothing yet why?" she asked.
"Jim Fargo is having a huge party and you two should come. It's going to be fun," he said. Gabriella looked over at Troy who shrugged.
"Sure we will be there," she said.
"Cool," Zeke said nodding his head.

Later on that day Gabriella and Troy were in her room. She was sitting at her desk while he lay down on her bed looking at the ceiling.
"Do you miss it," she asked suddenly.
"Miss what," he said.
"Signing. I've read that people who get cochlear implants miss signing. They miss the intimacy of it," she told him.
"I guess I miss it a little but I like being able to hear. It's not like I can never sign again either," he answered.
"Yeah. You know if you ever wanted to cheat on a test you would be golden because you could just sign the answers across the room," she pointed out.
"Because that won't at all suspicious me waving my hands around at you," eh said and she laughed.
"Yeah I guess they might figure it out," she said as she got up. She went over and lay down next to him. He put his arm around her pulling her close.
"Your friends are nice," he commented.
"They like you," she said.
"Yeah except Chad," he said.
"Chad is a strange being. Don't worry he will come around trust me," she said and he sighed.
"Do you miss your old school," she asked.
"Yeah I guess but its probably not the best idea to go back. Once they hear I got an implant let's just say they aren't exactly going to welcome me with open arms," he said sadly.
"Well I think you are just fine with the implant or without it," she said.
"Thanks," he said smiling.
"You ready for the party on Satruday," she asked him grinning.
"I guess," he said uncertain.
"You will be fine. Although we should probably have some more dance lessons. They might work better this time," she said.
"Yeah they should," he said.
"And Sharpay will pick us up since I can't drive," she told him.
"What do I wear," he asked her.
"Oh just jeans and a nice shirt," she answered.
"Oh," he said.
"You will be fine," she said and he laughed.
"Who are you trying to convince me or you?" he asked her.
"I don't need convincing," she said.
"Are you sure about that," he asked her.
"Of course. I eman what could go wrong?" she said.
"I could make a complete fool of myself," he answered.
"What are the chances of that happening?" she said.
"Very high," he answered laughing.
"Well I will love you anyways," she told him.
"Well thanks," he said.
"But I would you love even more if you went downstairs and got me something to eat," she said and he laughed.
"How about I go with you," he offered.
"Deal," she said.
(A/N-I know this chapter sucks and is very short and pointless but I have been having major writer's block for this story but I think I am over it so next chapter should be way better. If you have any ideas of what can go on in the story please let me know. Please review even though it was really bad!!)
