Past, Present, Future:

A/N: Thanks for the reviews! Sorry that it's taken so long. I've been busy. R&R please!! There's gunna be a huge time skip in the middle of the chapter and it has some abuse. Just a warning!

Emergency!:

"Well, if you ever change your mind, remember me," Wayne leaned down and kissed her lips softly.

Before Alex could respond in any way, she heard Ryan's voice, "What the hell?"

"Ry!" Alex quickly moved from Wayne's grasp.

"Dawn, who is this?" Wayne pointed at Ryan.

"I'm Ryan, her boyfriend," he said rudely.

"Ry, this isn't…" Alex began, but she knew better than to think that would work.

"I'm gunna go," Wayne's exit was unnoticed.

Alex went to speak, but Ryan stopped her, "Look, Alex. Why don't you just go be with the man you obviously love?"

Shock overtook Alex's body and she couldn't respond as quickly as she had hoped. Ryan quickly walked away.

"I already was," Alex whispered in to the air.

When Ryan got back to their room, he slumped onto the couch.

"What's wrong, dude?" Troy asked.

"Nothing," Ryan answered quickly.

When the girls were just about asleep, Sharpay paraded into the room.

"You look happy," Kelsi smiled.

"I am," Sharpay grinned, "Kal is amazing!"

Alex began walking around again and soon found herself back at the cemetery at Jamie's grave. She fell onto the ground and cried, "Hold me."

When, suddenly, something in her snapped.

"Matt," Adrian shook his older brother frantically.

"What is it?" Kalvin opened his eyes from his almost slumber.

"There's something wrong with, Dawn," Adrian told him.

"How do you know?" Kalvin looked him doubtfully.

"I just know," Adrian said sternly when they heard a loud, aggravated scream, "I told you."

"Did y'all hear that?" Kelsi sat up quickly.

"Yeah," the three others sat up as well. They then quickly made their way to the guys' room only to find them hurrying out.

"What's going on?" Sharpay asked.

"There's something wrong with, Dawn," Adrian said quickly, "C'mon!"

The gang hurried out of the inn.

Alex yelled as loud as he could and sat up, "I HATE YOU! You brought me back here! And now I've lost the guy I love because of Wayne's dumb ass! And I would've never had to come back had it not been for you! And why didn't you tell me about the cancer? Huh? I would've been there for you thru the treatment and everything! Why didn't you tell me? I hate you! I hate you! I hate you! I hate you!"

The gang witnessed Alex's hysteria, but didn't say anything just yet.

"I can't believe I've blamed myself for this so long, when it wasn't even my fault! You were gunna die anyways! Damn it, Jamie! I hate you!" Alex snatched the chain that held their rings from around her neck, threw it on the ground and began to run out of the cemetery.

However, she didn't make it out. She got just past her friends and collapsed and vomited.

Ryan now longer felt his anger, he felt compassion and her ran to her and rubbed her back to comfort her.

After she emptied her stomach, she clung to Ryan for life, "I'm sorry, so, so, so, so sorry."

"It's okay," Ryan reassured her.

"I'm sorry," Alex repeated, "So much."

Ryan stood with Alex still clinging to him; he picked her up and she wrapped her legs around his torso and her arms around his neck. The gang made their way back to the inn. Ryan and Alex stayed in what had been the girls' room and the rest of the gang stayed in the other.

Kalvin, Sharpay, Kelsi and Adrian all laid on one queen sized bed, Chad and Taylor were one the other and Troy and Gabriella were on the couch fold out bed.

Ryan laid Alex gently on the bed before stripping to his boxers, taking of her shoes and joined her. She snuggled up to him, feeling safe, and entered a stressful slumber.

--Dreamland--

Alex awoke and found herself wrapped in somebody's arms, but she no longer felt the safety she felt with Ryan, "Ry?"

"No," a familiar voice answered her.

"J-Jamie," Alex stuttered, "How?"

Jamie chuckled, "It's only a dream, Honey."

There was quietness among them, but Alex broke it, "I'm sorry about the things I said earlier. I don't hate you."

"I know," Jamie said quietly, "I should've told you, but I didn't want you to hurt anymore. I'm sorry I had to leave you so quickly, but, I think, Ryan's good for you and Jaden."

"Really?" She smiled.

"Yeah," Jamie kissed her forehead briefly.

"I miss you," she drew circles on his bare chest with her finger.

"I miss you, too, Hon," he held her closer, "but I have to go now. Don't be sad."

"I can't promise that," Alex didn't look at him.

He placed his finger under her chin and made her look at him, "It'll be okay, I promise. Kiss Jay for me. And don't shut Ryan out, he's a good guy."

Alex smiled, "I will and I won't," she laughed, "kiss Keegan for me."

"I do everyday."

--Dreamland--

Alex smiled as she woke and felt Ryan's protective arms around her. She kissed his chest lightly causing him to stir.

"Good mornin', Beautiful," Ryan smiled sleepily at her, "wait it's still dark."

Alex looked at the clock behind him, "We've only been asleep like an hour."

"Oh," Ryan looked at her confused.

She didn't say anything, just kissed him passionately. He rolled on top of her as he deepened the kiss.

"You sure?" He asked her concerned.

She nodded and let him remove her shirt.

Five months later: December 2007

It had been five months since the trip to Turner's Town and everyone was doing great. Well, with the exception of Taylor. She was beginning to show and she had yet to tell anyone other than Gabriella, Alex and Sharpay.

Taylor examined herself in the full length mirror. She wore a pair of sweat pants and her bra. She placed her hand on the large bump forming on her stomach and let a few tears fall. Chad was going to be there in a few minutest to pick her up for the movies, but she wasn't dressed nor was she planning to get that way.

"How am I gunna tell him?" She cried quietly, "He'll never forgive me. He just found out about his scholarship to U of A. What am I gunna do?"

"Taylor!" her mother called.

Taylor heard her pounding up the stairs; Taylor quickly threw on Chad's Wildcat hoodie and walked out the door and met her mother, "Yes ma'am?"

"A Dr. Smith's office called today confirming your appointment," Angela crossed her arms with a dangerous look on her face.

"Um, I haven't been feeling well," Taylor lied unsteadily, "so I made an appointment."

"You're such a liar," Angela stepped towards her daughter, "you're the reason your father's never home! Who wants to be around a lying tramp all the time? I don't! I wish I would've never had you!"

Taylor smelled alcohol on her mother's breath and knew that things could get ugly. Her mother continued to yell, "Up until we had you me and Richard were happy. We were great. Oh, but then you came along and ruined everything!" Angel screamed before swinging her arm around and knocking Taylor off her feet and down the stairs.

Angela rolled her eyes as her daughter laid limply on the floor before she walked off to her room.

"Help," Taylor muttered quietly before her whole world went black.

Chad arrived at Taylor's house at 7:30. He rang the doorbell; no answer. He knocked a few times; no answer.

Taylor came to, but couldn't move. She heard the knocking and whimpered, "Chad," she gathered more strength and called louder, "Chad!"

Chad heard Taylor's pleas and quickly opened the door and found her lying on the floor, "Tay, Baby, what happened?" he hurried to her and gathered her in his arms.

"My mother," she said bitterly.

"We need to get you to the hospital," Chad said frantically as he notice the bruises on her face and arms, "can you stand?"

She shook her head. He stood and began to pull her up.

Taylor cried as she felt a sharp pain in her abdomen.

"Baby, what is it? Don't worry, we're gunna get you help," Chad brought her to where he was holding her bridal style and carried her out the house.

As they were rushing to the hospital, Chad was able to call Alex, who called the rest of the gang.

"Chad!" Alex called as she entered the emergency wing of the hospital, "Where is she?"

The rest of the gang was right behind her.

"I don't know," Chad said close to tears, "they won't let me see her."

"It'll be okay," Alex hugged him, though she didn't really know if it would or not.

A nurse hurried out quickly, "Are y'all here for Taylor McKessie?"

Chad and Alex stood quickly with the rest of the gang, "Yes."

"She's asking for a Chad Danforth and a Alex Harrison."

"That's us," Alex said quickly motioning between her and Chad.

"Right this way," the nurse guided them into a hospital room.

"What's going on?" Chad asked the doctor.

"Well, she's pretty bruised up and the babies are loosing oxygen, so we're going to have to do an emergency C-section," Dr. Smith informed him.

"What?" Chad looked up at the doctor with wide eyes, "She's not pregnant!"

"Yes, she is," Alex told him quietly.

"Yeah, I am," Taylor whispered.

"Look, we're about to do the surgery," the doctor began, "y'all will have to leave."

"No, I want them in here!" Taylor protested.

"Okay," Dr. Smith obliged.

Alex and Chad stood on either side of Taylor's bed and held her hand.

The surgery went by rather quickly and the babies were rushed to the NICU.

After Taylor was cleaned up, the gang was allowed in and the doctor reentered.

"Taylor," he said sadly, "I'm sorry to tell you this, but you've lost your baby girl."

Taylor began to weep loudly and Chad quickly wrapped his arms around her, "Baby, its gunna be okay. We'll be okay."

"However, baby boy isn't in great condition, but is doing well considering that he's nearly four months early. When you have recovered you'll be able to go see him."

Sharpay and Gabriella had told the guys and Kelsi the story while Taylor was in surgery and they all stood there wishing things were better.

Taylor calmed down a bit and pulled away to look at Chad, "I'm sorry I didn't tell you, I just didn't know how to."

"its okay, Baby. I understand."

There was a knock at the door and a nurse entered, "Miss McKessie?"

"Ma'am?" Taylor turned to the nurse.

"Do you have any names?" the nurse, Betty, asked quietly.

Taylor had actually put a lot of thought into this and answered quickly, "My baby girl was Alex Danielle Danforth and my baby boy is Oran Chad Danforth."

A/N: Well, there ya go! Taylor told Chad! Well, technically she didn't, but still. Lol. I hope you liked it! Review please!!
