I love the romance! By the way the idea for the drunk thing was kinda from Raise Your Voice. I didn't realize it was so similar until I actually wrote it! Thanks for reading and enjoy:D

Their lips touched, sending a shiver down his spine. Her lips were tingling and Alex smiled as he lightly kissed her again. Then he gently put his head against the wall and closed his eyes. Gabriella lay next to him with her head at his chest.

They had woken up just at sunrise. Gabriella sleepily looked out at the sky that was a light orange and blue. Alex was still asleep. She decided to let him rest before he begun his tiring practices but before she knew it he opened his eyes and put his hand on hers.

They were silent for a while, just enjoying each other's company. Alex twirled Gabriella's hair in his finger. He couldn't remember what exactly had happened, or why he was on top of the roof, but he remembered something warm and soft touch his lips now and then. It must've been Gabriella. Whatever it was he was happy to be there. Gabriella stood up and held out her hand to Alex. He grabbed it and pulled himself off the ground. Unexpectedly he hugged her and finally Gabriella spoke the first words.

"Don't ever get drunk again," she said with a smile on her face. He laughed.

"It was all part of my fiendishly clever (line from the guardian) plan to get you to like me," he said as they waited for the elevator.

"Like you? Who said I liked you?" she said and Alex felt stupid for a second. She walked into the elevator and turned around waiting for him. He had a dumbfounded look on his face. "I adore you," she said and then he smiled and got into the elevator.

"That means you'll go to Homecoming with me, right?" he said moving closer to her.

"If you want me to," she said and looked up at him.

"Of course I do," Alex said and took her hand as they exited the elevator.

The floor was silent for all the students were still asleep. The team had to wake up the earliest for practice; eight. All the others would go to the museum once the sophomores and freshmen arrived. Gabriella and Alex wouldn't see each other until that night.

XOXOXOXO

Troy put on some gym shorts, a shirt, and his sneakers. He and his teammates were getting ready for practice at Green High, the home of the bobcats. They were allowed to use their gym to prepare.

He grabbed his sports bag and room key and headed down to breakfast. He felt awkward dressed so casually at the hotel. People stared at the four young men. Coach Bolton would be waiting for them at the table. It surprised all of them that he hadn't even the slightest clue where they had been last night.

Alex, Danny and Zeke were already there and starting on their pancakes. Where had Alex been last night? He would be the one to get suspension if anybody found out. The old, aggressive Troy would've ratted him out, but the new Troy had made peace with Alex.

XOXOXOXO

"So…" Taylor nudged Gabriella.

"So what?" Gabriella knew what Taylor was referring to but she ignored her.

Taylor put down her fork and clasped her hands together. "Girl, you were out all last night and you mean to tell me nothing happened?" She raised her eyebrow and Gabriella searched for the right words.

"Well," she drank some water. "I can't say nothing happened." She smiled knowing that Taylor would be itching for more.

"Then tell me what did happen," Gabriella had her full attention.

"We just talked and-" she moved in closer and whispered to Taylor "I kissed him."

Taylor jumped in her seat from the excitement. Her best friend smiled and then motioned for her to keep it down low; Sharpay was headed their way. What on earth could she want now? She already had Troy.

Sharpay put down her pink purse in front of her and sat down. She put on a fake smiled and snapped her fingers for a waiter to come immediately. Taylor and Gabriella kept eating.

"I hope you don't mind me asking, Gabriela, but are you and Alex together?" She said. Sharpay loved gossip and there was no hiding it. Gabriella nodded and Sharpay gasped and clapped her hands. "Yay for you!" she said.

"Sharpay, if you don't mind me asking: why do you care?" Gabriella snapped. She didn't mean to appear rude but Sharpay was pushing her to the limit.

"I'm just looked out for Alex. He is family you know," she said. Gabriella and Taylor didn't believe her for a second but they decided to let it slip. They silently ate and then a guy walked up to Sharpay. Taylor and Gabriella looked up in curiosity.

"Sharpay? Zeke left these for you," he said and handed her a carefully packaged box of cookies. Sharpay smiled and took the box. She put it down in front of her. Zeke still had a crush on her, but he was too different for her.
