"Well, some one looked like they had a good night." Sharpay said. She took notice to Gabriella's smile, completely clueless about what had happened the night before.

"You don't even know the half of it." Gabriella replied as she remembered what had happened the previous night.

"Spill." Taylor cut in, as she turned around and looked at Gabriella

Gabriella went on to explain every single detail, including the fiery kiss that she and Troy had shared. She told them about the secrets that they had told, snuggling together under the stars, and seeing the compassion in his eyes. Once she finished both Sharpay and Taylor uncontrollably let out an 'aw' in unison. Gabriella just glared at them, she was about to say something in return but she was interrupted by there homeroom teacher.

Gabriella went through the rest of her day anticipating lunch, seeing Troy for the first time all day. She hated the fact that she only had one class with him, not including lunch, but on the plus side her English class was filled with all her friends. Gabriella shot up into the air as the bell rung, her next class was lunch, and she gathered up her books and ran towards Troy's locker.

Troy was at his locker putting away his books, when he looked down the hall and saw Gabriella running towards him. A smile instantly came across his face, seeing her hair sway from side to side, the twinkle in her eye would make anyone's day.

Gabriella leaped into his arms, and Troy spun her around. After Troy set her back down, Gabriella caught her breath, and fixed her hair.

"Miss me?" Troy asked smirking

"Was it that obvious?" Gabriella said as she smiled a little embarrassed

"Only a little, but it was cute." Troy answered closing his locker and wrapping his arm around her waste

Gabriella and Troy entered the cafeteria hand in hand; Gabriella took notice to the silence more than anyone else. She felt Troy squeeze her hand; she squeezed it back in return letting him know that she was okay. Once they both sat down the silence stopped and people began getting back to there own business.

"Well you guys sure know how to make an entrance." Chad said taking a bite of his cheese burger. Both Gabriella and Troy ignored his comment and continued eating there food.

"What gives you the right not to tell me we changed seats?" Sharpay said as slammed her tray down on the table and squeezed in between Taylor and Jason.

"Sorry Shar," Gabriella apologized

"Just don't let it happen again." Sharpay replied shifting through her salad and then quickly looked up across the table at Zeke. She had been anticipating that moment she would feel that spark she had longing for, but as of yet nothing had happened. Looking back up she instantly connected with Zeke's eyes, embarrassed that she had just been caught in the act she quickly looked down back at her food, but the damage had already been done.

The conversations continued on, eventually they all settled on going out to dinner on Friday, just for the sake of going out. They said their goodbyes and spit off in separate directions. Troy and Gabriella left hand in hand headed towards English.

"Alright class, where coming to end of our poetry unit." Mrs. Darbus began but was interrupted by the roar and cheers of students

"Settle down, don't get too excited. You all know very well that at the end of each unit there is a assignment." Mrs. Darbus started but was again interrupted by the groaning and wining of students.

"That is enough! Now due by Friday you must recite a poem. You can write one, or you can find a poem that suits you best. It must be more than one stanza and you must have it memorized." She finished as the bell rang and students began to exit the classroom

"Well I've got chemistry now, so I guess I'll be seeing you." Gabriella said looking down shifting back and forth

"You don't think that I can take a hint?" Troy said putting a finger under her chin and lifting her into a kiss.

"It is about time." Gabriella responded with her eyes still closed

"How bout I walk you home today?" Troy asked

"Then I'll see you after school." Gabriella answered releasing her hand from his and walking in the opposite direction towards her next class. Troy stood there for a few more moments watching her turn the corner. Eventually snapping back in to reality, remembering that he was late to free period practice.

"Man where have you been?" Zeke said as Troy ran into the gym

"I had to take care of some stuff." Troy said stealing the ball from a clueless Chad

"Would this stuff happen to be a certain Gabriella?" Zeke said stealing thee ball back from Troy

"Well you shouldn't be talking, I think just about everyone noticed you looking at a certain blonde during lunch today." Chad said taking the ball from Zeke and the game was on

"What are you talking about?" Zeke said faking left as he passed towards Jason

"You know exactly what I'm talking about." Chad responded as he guarded Troy

"You shouldn't be talking, we all know that you've had it for Taylor for almost a year now." Zeke replied as Jason ran up court and scored a basket

"That's different, Taylor is untouchable." Chad said in a low whisper. He was right though Taylor was untouchable. She was smart, way to smart for him. Don't forget drop dead gorgeous. She was completely out of his league, and he reminded himself of that on a daily base.

"And you don't think that Sharpay isn't." Zeke snapped. There was no doubt in his mind that he was crazy for Sharpay. The way she took control of any situation that was thrown at her. How badly we wanted to stand by her side and be completely captivated in her presence. But more importantly make her midnight snacks and her morning breakfasts.

A half an hour later Zeke and Chad where still going back and fourth. Both Troy and Jason where loosing there patience, and decided for the best to cut practice short.

"I don't know about you guys, but I've got a pretty lady waiting for me at my locker." Troy said taking the ball and passed it towards Chad.

"Don't do anything stupid." Troy turned around and then headed towards the locker room

- - - - -

"You're late." Gabriella said leaning against his locker

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. You should have heard Zeke and Chad." Troy sighed as he grabbed some books from his locker

"Wait, what happened?" Gabriella asked curious

"I'll tell you later, come on lets go." Troy said wrapping his arm around her waste and exiting the school

I know not all that much happened during this chapter. But I wanted to introduce some Zekpay and Chaylor.

Now I NEED your help, I need something to happen during Troy and Gabriella's walk home. But I have no idea what; I need some ideas so please…HELP!

Thanks for reading!
