I Want You This Much
Chapter 11
HELLOOOOOOOOO EVERYONE! I'm sorry its been so long! The wedding is over and I've had writer's block. As soon as I can, I'll try to let you guys get a few more chapters after this one. Thanks for all your reviews... I'm so glad you guys like this story. I've got a little Ryelsi and some Chaylor for you this chapter. The song "Over" is by Lindsay Lohan.R&R! SHAD ROCKS!
Kelsi sighed heavily, sitting back down in the chapel of her church, Christ Our King. She had just received the message that Sharpay was bleeding from premature labor and may end up in a miscarriage.
She bowed her head, covering her face with her hands and started to sob. She and Ryan were at the church, helping her cousin, Kaytla, get ready for her wedding later that week.
Ryan looked over at her from the alter and in pure concern, raced to his wife's side. He placed his hand on her shoulder and she threw her arms around his neck, breaking down.
"She's not gonna make it, Ry'," she cried wholeheartedly.
"Shhh," he hushed with pure assurance, "She'll make it, Kels'. I swear, she'll make it." He looked around the church as he held his wife tightly in a comforting embrace. "Let's just pray, Honey."
Kelsi nodded in agreement as she pulled away, wiping the tears from her eyes. Ryan gave her a small sympathetic smile as his wife bowed her head with humbleness to the front of the sanctuary, closing her eyes with tears caressing her cheeks and folding her hands. He followed his wife's suit, listening to his wife's words.
"D-d-d-dear Lord..." she started out stumbling on her words shakily. "We come to you in prayer at this time to help Sharpay. We know there are more important things, but..." She trailed off as her voice cracked and waited a moment to get a hold of herself while wiping her eyes before continuing. "Be with her and the babies in this time of need. She may not have been the sweetest person in the world growing up, but now... she will do anything... anything to protect Libby and the rest of her children and family. Just please... please be with her... protect her. Amen."
"Amen," her repeated softly, hearing her sobs of depression fill the air. He pulled his wife back in his arms and she clung to him in need.
I watched the walls around me crumble
But its not like I won't build them up again
So here's your last chance for redemption
So take it while it lasts because it will end
And my tears are turning into time I've wasted trying to find a reason for goodbye
Chad stood there, looking through the glass window separating him from the love of his life as she lay there in pain. The doctors had been working on her for the past thirty some minutes and still were.
He stood there, holding back his tears as he turned to face his wife and eight children. He was going to have to do the one thing that he didn't want too... But right now Sharpay needed him... He wanted... no! He needed her...
I cant live without you
Can't breathe without you I dream about you honestly
Tell me that its over
Because if the world is spinning and I'm still living
It won't be right if were not in it together
Tell me that it's over
And I'll be the first to go
Don't want to be the last to know
Taylor was trying to rock Leo to sleep in her arms, hoping for him to shut his eyes and fall asleep to no avail, when her husband walked over and sat next to her.
"Taylor," Chad sighed.
"What's wrong?" she asked, taking notice he called her by her full name, which was never a good sign and the empty look in his eyes made it all the more worse on her.
He took a deep breath before reply, "We need to get a divorce."
Tears struck her eyes at the sudden suggestion and her jaw dropped. "Ch-Chad..." she gaped. "No..." He leaned over and wiped the tears dripping down her face. His touch was cold compared to the sudden fever she felt coming over her whole body.
He took Leo and placed his son in the basinet. He pulled her up off her butt and took her outside to their car, knowing that Troy and Zeke could handle all the kids on their own.
I won't be the one to chase you
But at the same time you're the heart that I call home
I'm always stuck with these emotions
And the more I try to feel the less I'm whole
My tears are turning into time
I've wasted trying to find a reason for goodbye
As soon as they got through the front door and closed it, Taylor had pressed Chad up against the wall and stuck her tongue in his mouth, lapping against his tongue. Chad fought back and shoved his tongue against hers to conquer her mouth as they fumbled up the stairs.
Chad played with the buttons on Taylor's shirt until they were all done as her tongue won the war in their mouths' battle. Soon her shirt was discarded and his lips were kissing her neck.
I cant live without you
Can't breathe without you I dream about you honestly
Tell me that its over
Because if the world is spinning and I'm still living
It won't be right if were not in it together
Tell me that it's over
"Chad," she moaned and at the sound of her voice, he pulled away.
"Taylor, I'm sorry," he apologized, tossing her shirt at her.
"I love you," she whispered as tears started falling from her eyes again in hurt and want to be loved by her husband.
"I'm sorry," he repeated, staring at her.
She threw herself at his feet and hugged his legs, starting to plead, "Don't leave me, Chad, please. I beg you. I'll do anything, please?"
"Taylor, c'mon," he sighed. "Don't do this to me. I already feel horrible for leading you on all these years... I'm in love with Sharpay."
And I'll be the first to go
Yeah I'll be the first to go
Don't want to be the last to know
My tears are turning into time
I've wasted trying to find a reason for goodbye
Chad then proceeded to pry Taylor from his legs and place her in their king size bed.
"Chad, please," she begged, wanting to taste him one last time and taking his face in her hands.
"I don't want to hurt you anymore," he whispered with tears in his eyes as she pulled his face closer to hers in a kiss. Their tongues once again entangled together in a flame of passion.
He pulled away and walked away with a pang of guilt in his system, not wanting to make love to his wife and then walk out on her, leaving her longing for everything about him in the bed broken.
I cant live without you
Can't breathe without you I dream about you honestly
Tell me that its over
Because if the world is spinning and I'm still living
It wont be right if were not in it together
Tell me that it's over
Chad walked out to his car and drove away to the chapel. He found Kelsi and Ryan standing in the front, no tears were shown in their eyes, but the room smelled of tears and wine since the service just ended about half an hour ago.
At first, the two took no notice of their friend, but when Kelsi turned around she saw him and ran down the aisle, tackling him in a tight embrace.
He took in Kelsi's scent as he held her back, blinking back arising tears. Frozen Daiquiri, the same smell she had worn since they were all in eighth grade. He had given it to her when they snuck around dating and he was surprised she still wore it.
When they pulled back, she wiped the tears trickling down his cheeks he didn't know were falling.
"Chad, everything's going to be okay," she assured. He shook his head and she pulled him back into her arms, brushing her hand through his hair. "It's all going to be okay."
"I divorced Taylor, Kiki," he cried in her arms.
She closed her eyes so she didn't start crying as well. "Shhhh. You'll be okay, Chad," she assured.
Ryan stood at the front of the chapel, staring at his wife and friend as they held onto each other crying. He wasn't the smartest person in the world, but he wasn't stupid. He knew something was wrong. Whether it was with his sister or whether it was about Chad, but he knew something was up. And he was going to find out.
Tell me that it's over
Over
Honestly tell me
Honestly tell me
Don't tell me that its over
Don't tell me that its over..
