Gabby, Drink Too

"Oh, what are ya gonna do now, Troy?" Gabriella laughed. She was helping Troy practice on the court in his backyard. She attempted to play tight defense on him. Troy spin-dribbled around her easily and scored a lay up.

"Two points!" Troy called out. "So that makes it seventy-six to zero."

Gabriella laughed. "And I'm winning," she replied in her flirty tone. "No one can beat mommy."

"Except daddy," replied Troy laughing. "That's because I am the king! And you my lady, are my queen." He kissed Gabriella.

"And Haven is the princess," Gabriella flirted. "I think we need a prince."

"That can be arranged." He tackled Gabriella and gently pinned her to the ground. "What are you gonna do now, my lady?"

"This." She pulled him on top of her and they made out.

"Work it left, Troy!" shouted Mr. Bolton. They were in the middle of a game against North High. "Left!"

Troy obeyed and immediately scored. The gym erupted. "Yeah!" shouted Chad coming past him. "Nice shot!"

It was 82-72. East High was up by ten. There was one minute left in the fourth quarter. Troy stole the ball from the point guard and layed down another lay up. They were up by twelve. He got the rebound on the next shot, passed to Chad, and immediately broke down court for the long pass. Chad passed it to him and he put in yet another basket. Troy had never heard the gym screaming so loud. He felt heartened and put up another eight points before the game ended. After the final buzzer sounded, the whole gym went ecstatic. Everyone knew what that meant besides the end of the game, the wildcats had won the division, a big thing. The stands stormed the court, and Coach Bolton was presented with a plaque.

"Coming through!" he yelled at the crowd. "Coming through!" He came up to Troy. "You have made me so proud. I am gonna sleep with a huge grin on my face tonight!" Everybody continued to cheer, and Troy was about to go off to find Gabby.

"Congratulations, Wildcat!" yelled Gabby from behind as she threw her arms around Troy.

"This seems familiar," Troy said to her. He pulled her into a passionate kiss. "See, no interruptions this time." He was about to kiss her again when Chad came up with the game ball.

"You were saying," laughed Gabriella.

"For you, Captain, the game ball…" Chad began.

"Chad, would you just go away and let me kiss Gabriella!" Troy laughed.

"Fine," replied Chad. "I guess I earned the game ball, then, wow." He walked away pretending to wave as if he had just won an Academy Award.

Troy laughed. "He can have the game ball as long as I can have you." He pulled her into another long kiss. Taylor and Chad followed suit. Soon, everybody was kissing. It was a strange sight.

"Party at my house!" Chad yelled. Everyone cheered after him.

Troy and Gabriella looked at each other. "No punch," they said at the same time and laughed.

"Hey," said Taylor drunkenly to Chad. "Let's play a nice big game of I never with the beer.

"You gots all the good ideas," Chad replied kissing her. "I Never time!" he yelled and the whole room went ecstatic.

Troy and Gabriella, despite there best efforts, were just as drunk as everybody else. "Yeah!" yelled Troy. "Come on, Gabby!"

"Alright!" Gabriella was wild. "Let's go drink."

The whole gang sat in a circle. "Okay," said Sharpay. "I'll start. I've never kissed a member of the opposite sex." Everybody drank. "Just making sure."

"I've never gotten to second base with anyone," Gabriella said. Once again, everybody drank. At first, it was stupid little stuff that was rigged so everybody would drink. Then it got outrageous with embarrassing stuff that sometimes maybe had one person drink. Then, everyone would demand an explanation.

"I've never stripped at a strip club," said Chad later.

Troy was the only one who drank. "Troy!" Kelsi squeaked. "Do tell!"

"Chad's house counts," said Troy. "The night Haven was conceived. Gabby, drink too." Gabby did.

"We all knew that one," said Jason. No one remembered anything after that.
