Chad snuck a look at Felicity to see if she was watching them.

"It's nothing important," Chad shook his head leaving the suite, and a confused Troy.

'It's not important,' Chad snorted to himself, "If he marries that girl, yeah, that'll be important."


That Night

"Jay...what are you doing here?" Gabriella said cooly.

"Hey, babe. Came down to see how you were doing," Jay answered.

"Um, Gabby?" Chad said.

"Oh right. Um, Jay, this is Felicity, Troy, Chad, Taylor, Sharpay, Zeke, Jason, Kelsi, and Ryan," Gabriella introduced in the order the gang was standing in.

a/n:Just noticed, I forgot Ryan in this whole story, lol.

"Hi."

"Hey."

"What's up, dude?"

"So, what are we up to?" Jay asked, not noticing the tension in the room.

"Well is there stri---" Jay suggested.

"Jay!" Gabriella said loudly, catching his attention, "No, there isn't one here."

That gang gave her confused looks, but she shrugged them off.

"Oh, okay. So what can we do?"

"We were going to have a girls night, and a guys night," Gabriella said quickly.

Ryan opened his mouth to deny, but Gabriella glarred at him, and he quickly closed.

"Yeah, a girls and guys night," Chad said catching on with Gabby's lie.

"Uh, right. What is that?"

"It's when the guys hang out with the guys and the girls hang out with the girls," Gabby told him.

"Right, so what do I do?"

"I dunno," Gabriella said.

'Don't really care, aslong as you stay away from me, I'm good,' Gabby thought.

"Okay...so what are the groups?"

'God, this guy is stupider than me,' Chad thought proudly.

"Well Taylor, Kelsi, Sharpay and I are in one group, and Chad, Jason, Zeke, Troy, and Felicity are in another one," Gabby said.

"But isn't Felicity a girl?" Jay said confused.

Chad couldn't help but laugh, fortunatly, he was able to make it into a cough.

Troy and Felicity glarred, well, Felicity glarred at him, while Troy just looked at his best friend weirdly.

The girls smirked at Jay's remark.

"Uh, yeah. But Felicity likes to stay with Troy," Gabriella said avoiding Felicity's gaze.

"Oh, okay."

"Well, we'll see you later. You can stay up at my suite, here's the keycard. Room 250," Gabby said throwing her keycard to her ex-boyfriend, and pulling the girls-except Felicity- with her towards Sharpay suite.

The guys stood there for a moment, then shrugged their shoulders and headed towards Chad suite, including Felicity.


"Who the hell was that? Wait...is he that abusive guy? Man, he was stupid...Well except that Felicity thing, that was halarious," Sharpay said in one breath.

"Where's Gabriella?" she said after noticing that Gabby was gone.


"Hey, babe," Jay's words slurred as she entered her suite.

Gabriella's eyes widen as she noticed the box of twelve vodka bottles sitting on her bedspread.

"Jay...how many bottles of vodka did you drink?" Gabby said cooly, she had dealt with this before...two years ago...

"Four----teen," he slurred.

Gabby sighed, she scanned the room and saw four bottles laying around, off by ten, was not a good sign.

He grabbed another two bottles of vodka, and shoved one in Gabriella's face.

"No," she said firmly.

But flicked off the lids, of his and Gabby's bottle, and drank his bottle in one gulp.

"Drink," he ordered.

"No."

"Drink, now!" he shouted.

"Jay, calm down."

"Drink it, now!" he barked.

"Jay, you know I don't drink."

He took Gabriella by surprise when he threw the bottle at her head.


"I am so bored..." Jason said, trying his best to ignore Troy and Felicity who were making out.

"Let's go to the girl's suite," Chad suggested.

They all agreed.

As they went to Taylor's suite, two suites down from Gabriella.

They heard Gabriella scream.

They rushed to her door.

The door was slightly open, so the guys rushed in, and saw Jay ready to throw another bottle of vodka at the bleeding Gabriella.

"Jason! Call the cops!" Chad commanded.

Jason dug his hand into his back pocket, and punched in the number and spoke rapidly, while Jason called, Jay noticed what he had done and ran out of the room. Zeke dashed out of the room to follow him, while Chad stayed and checked out how Gabriella was doing. She was unconscious and was bleeding alot.


Hospital-Emergency Room

While the doctors took care of Gabriella, Chad called Taylor, who was with the rest of the girls-except Gabby and Felicity- and told them to come to the hospital. Chad left a message on Troy's cell phone, since he and Felicity were probably "busy," if you know what I mean. Maybe not rated R, but maybe close.

The girls burst into the waiting room.

"What happened!" Taylor exclaimed.

"Shhhh...we heard Gabby scream, then we saw Jay about to throwing a bottle of vodka at Gabriella's head, I don't think the bottle he was holding was the first, maybe the second, hope it wasn't the third," Chad said.

"Oh my god, that's horrible," Sharpay whispered in shock.

"You think? You should have seen all the blood, it was a lot as in a lot," Chad said.

"Where's Troy?" Kelsi asked.

"Before we left, he and Felicity were in a heavy make out session, I left a message on his cell though," Chad said as Zeke came and joined the group, panting.

"He...got...a...way," he said out of breath.

Chad patted him on the back.

"Are you gonna tell Troy? I heardFelicity threaten Gabby about being close to Troy or something," Taylor explained.

"Yeah, I know. I don't plan on tell him anytime soon. We all know he still loves Gabby, but how far will that blonde go for him? Probably very far," Chad said, nodding his head.

"Hey, watch what you say about blondes," Sharpay warned.

"I said 'that' blonde, not blondes."

"Hey, guys. What are we doing here?" Troy asked as he came into the waiting room.

"Gabby's in there," Chad said taking charge, and noticing that Felicity wasn't behind him, nor beside him.

"What happened?"

"Not sure," Chad said.

"Montez," a doctor called.

The group rushed to him.

"Miss. Montez is bleeding alot. We stitched her up, so her bleeding isn't that bad. She's in coma at the moment. You can go and see her, in a few minutes. From what I've heard from what happened, all I'll say is pray for the best," he said before leaving.

"Okay, he knows, why can't I?" Troy glarred at Chad.

Chad sighed, "It's for her safety."

"Safety! What safety! She was here, happy and jolly, and now it's a safety thing?"

"With Felicity," Chad said mumbled.

"What?" Troy said quietly.

"Never mind," Chad said.

"Chad," Troy said shaking his best friend's shoulder, "What is going on with her and Felicity?"

"Nothing."

"Well it sure doesnt sound like'nothing,' what the hell is going on?"

"Why don't you ask your girlfriend," Chad sneered, before going with the rest of the group to see Gabriella.

"Maybe I will," Troy said stalking off.

(And also forgetting about visiting Gabriella.)
