"And that is how Cesar II died." Professor Ashton said. The middle aged man looked around the room to see everyone listening intently, other than a sleeping Troy who was resting his head back, snoring softly. He continued to stare and began to walk up the class steps to where all the rows of table who fixated. He stepped and stood in front of Troy's desk. "Ahem, Mr. Bolton." he said.

Troy opened one eye and his mouth dropped as he saw his Professor standing in front of him, smirking slightly. "Good evening Mr. Bolton. Have a nice dream?"

The whole room erupted into laughter.

He groaned lightly and sat up in his chair.

"I better not see this again." Professor Ashton arched a brow and walked back down.

Troy groaned, once again and lay ed his head back down.

"Mommy!" Kayla squealed when she saw her Mom walk into her classroom.

Gabriella laughed and picked up the running girl. "Hey sweetie." she smiled. "Did you have a good day?"

Kayla nodded her head energetically.

"Oh, that's good. Say bye." Gabriella said.

"Bye!" Kayla yelled.

"Bye!" the group of toddler's waved from their seats.

Gabriella chuckled and walked out of the room.

"I cwall Daddy?" Kayla asked.

"Ok, I think he's out of class." Gabriella set her daughter down and searched through her black purse for her phone.

"I just had it somewhere." she said, frustrated as she couldn't find it.

Kayla giggled. "I have it." she said, holding the phone out.

Gabriella laughed and grabbed the phone out of her hands. "You're so silly, baby girl."

-----

"Troy, what was up with you in Professor Ashton's class. You feel asleep before me! I'm shocked!" Chad said, as they walked to Troy's car.

Troy rolled his eyes. "I was tired."

"From what? You went to sleep at like nine last night."

"Well, actually not. I talked to Gabriella for a while." Troy said.

Chad groaned. "Why don't you two just just get together already? You two do realize how oblivious you guys are, right?" he asked as he slipped into the passenger seat.

"You do understand that I live in California and she lives in New Mexico, correct?" Troy said, driving out of the campus.

"Whatever dude. Just hook up already and stop all the foreplay." Chad laughed.

-----

"You guy's slept together?" Gabriella asked her cousin Emma.

"Yeah. It was a spure of the moment type of thing." Emma said, taking a sip of her lemonade.

Gabriella rolled her eyes. "One of these days Em, just one of these days." she sighed.

Emma rolled her eyes. "Gabs, you act like you've never had guys thrown at you."

"Whatever Em. You know that I've never trusted any other guy than Troy and my friends."

Emma sighed. "And that my friend, is why you will never find a guy!"

Gabriella scoffed. "Wh..what? I've found guy's before. It's just that nothing happened. Plus, I think I already, have a boyfriend." she shrugged.

"What!?" Emma asked, spitting a bit of her lemonade.

Gabriella turned a deep shade of red and quickly corrected herself. "Well, I wouldn't say that he's a boyfriend, but he's a very close friend."

"How close?" Emma smirked.

"Not close like that, but have you ever known someone who just get's you, so perfectly? And you've known them forever?" Gabriella said, smiling brightly.

"Oh god." Emma muttered. "You're so in love."

"Am not." Gabriella looked at Emma who was staring at her questionably. She sighed. "Fine, I am. I totally love him. I mean what's there not to love? He was my first love, he's a total babe, he's sweet, funny, genuine, athletic, he's a great dad-" She was cut off, by Emma.

"Listen I know you're my first cousin and all, but holy shit, what the hell are you still doing here in Albuquerque? Go to LA! Stop blabbing about him and officially make him yours! No more of this 'I love you' and 'I miss you' shit either! Get off your ass and go to LA! Get your man, girl!"

Gabriella bit her lip and looked at a sleeping Kayla. She was sleeping peacefully on their the living room couch in her pj's. "Even if I wanted to go. I can't go. I have her." she said, pointing to Kayla.

"Save it. You can leave her with me. Plus, she adores me." Emma laughed.

Gabriella sat there for a little longer, looking pensively. She sighed and rested her head back.

-----

"I'm miss American dream since I was seventeen..." Sharpay sang, while she walked into Troy's room. She gasped in horror as only a towel was wrapped around his waist. "Will you please put some clothes on?!" she yelled, covering her eyes.

He laughed. "Will you please knock?"

She rolled her eyes and sat on his bed while he walked into his closet to change. Her eyes popped out of her head, as she saw a pack of suitcases in the corner. "What are all these suitcases?" she asked.

He walked out of his closet fully dressed and smiled softly. "I'm going to Albuquerque."

She looked at him confused for a while until she finally relized what he was saying. "To see Gabriella and Kayla?" she asked.

He nodded and slipped on a pair of socks.

She squealed. "I wanna go, I wanna go! I have the days to take off of school and work. I wanna go!"

"Are you seven or something?" he laughed.

"Haha, you're so funny." She sighed and walked to the door. "I'll be packing." she sang.

-----

Gabriella moaned and opened her eyes when she felt someone climb into the bed. She rolled over to see Kayla, sitting on her knees and staring at her. "What's wrong sweetie?" she asked, sittng up and turned on the light beside her.

"I no sweep." Kayla said.

Gabriella turned and read 12:52p.m. on the clock. "Come on." she said, opening the covers.

Kayla walked over and giggled as she threw herself down onto the spot.

Gabriella smiled weakly and turned the side lamp.

"I see Daddy." Kayla said as she settled into her Mother's arms.

Gabriella sighed. "Go to sleep, Kay."

"We just got back two days ago!" Zeke groaned as all five (him, Sharpay, Troy, Taylor & Chad) gathered in Sharpay's black Range Rover.

"Yeah, but Troy has to go take care of some business, and us as friends must go through it with him. Ok?" Sharpay said, driving out of her and Taylor's apartment complex.

Troy sighed and looked at the car clock. "Um, excuse me Sharpay, but could you please fucking drive and not talk? The plane leaves in 20 minutes!"

She rolled her eyes. "Shut it!" she yelled, stepping on the gas.

"Oh, I'm gonna die!" Chad gasped, holding onto his seat belt tightly. "Please, I'd like to be buried by Staples Center, ok? Great."

"Quit your whining, loser. You're not gonna die!" Sharpay yelled. She let out a small scream and stepped on the break as a biker crossed the way. "Sorry." she yelled.

"Oh, that's good, but it doesn't mean that you kill the poor biker!" Chad yelled, throwing his hands up in the air.

"I really have to go to the bathroom." Zeke gasped, crossing his legs.

"Sharpay, do not stop." Troy warned.

"But Zeke has to go to the restroom." she said, slowing down.

Troy groaned and looked around the car. "Here pee in this!" he said, handing Zeke a McDonald's cup.

"I'll take anything." Zeke said, snatching it out of his hand.

"Do I stop so that he can go?" Sharpay asked. Panic was in her voice.

Troy who was in the front seat rolled his eyes. "Go!" he yelled, stepping on the gas pedal.

She screamed and quickly removed her foot.

"This is great. Just great. I've always wanted to go on a fucking high speed chase!" Chad yelled.

"This feels nice." Zeke sighed.

"Ew, turn it around, big boy" Taylor said, looking away.

He blushed. "Sorry." he muttered, turning the other way.
