The scandal
Rating: T
"You wanna do something tonight?" stacy asked Gabi as they were sitting in her hotel room. She was in the middle of her tour and she had a little break in NYC for 2 days. Her and Troy's relationship was great, even though they were far apart. She had been able to stay away from the paparazzi pretty well because she was traveling so much.
"Yeah sure," she replied. "Is there anything going on tonight?"
"I heard about one party, but do you wanna go more low key," stacy asked.
"Nahh, its fine," she replied.
"Okay," stacy replied.
The Club
Greg was sitting by the bar looking at two girls laughing, drinking, and just having a good time. He couldn't take his eyes off one girl in particular.
"Not gonna happen," a girl said coming up behind him.
"Excuse me," he said turning around.
"You and Gabriella, that will never happen," she said.
"Who are you and how do you know," he replied.
"sharpay Evans," she replied sticking her hand out and he shook it, "and I know because I have known Gabriella for a long time."
"How long?" he asked.
"Long enough to know that she will never do anything to hurt Troy," she replied.
"she was engaged to another guy, and that hurt him, I was there when he found out, he broke his locker," he replied and sharpay lightly laughed.
"Yeah, but only because Troy hurt her," she replied. "Now she loves him just as much and if not more than she did back in high school."
"You went to high school with them?" he asked.
"Yep, and it still amazes me that they went from being East High's golden couple to America's favorite couple," she replied.
"You really think I can't get her for one night," he said.
"I know you can't," she replied.
"Wanna bet," he replied.
"Fine a hundred bucks," she said.
"You're on," he replied and they shook hands. He smiled and turned around and made his way to Gabi, who was now alone.
"Gabriella!" he said trying to sound like he had just seen her.
"Oh my god! Greg! What are you doing here," she asked.
"Well we have two weeks before playoffs, and we are doing so well coach gave us a few days off to come home," he replied.
"Oh yeah," she said.
"I'm surprised Troy didn't come here to see you," he said trying to upset her.
"Yeah, well he was supposed to but then he had to do something for Espn," she replied.
"Ohhh," he said nodding.
"Yeah, I miss him like crazy though, how is he," she asked. God this girl is obsessed.
"He is great, but don't you talk to him," he asked.
"Well yeah but you see him everyday," she said.
"Oh okay," he replied and they stood there in silence.
"Can I ask you a question," he asked.
"Of course," she replied.
"Why aren't you and Troy married, I mean you guys say you wanna spend the rest of your lives together."
"Umm, I guess we just wanna focus on our careers right now," she said.
"Please Gabi, he is a future hall of famer and you are America's hottest singer, your careers are in tact" he replied.
"Yeah, I know. But we are still young," she said.
"What you are afraid that you guys will change and not love each other anymore," he said.
"No! Of course not!" she said starting to get upset.
"Then do you think Troy is just scared," he asked.
"What are you asking this?"
"I dunno, it is just that I am surprised Troy hasn't made sure that you can't slip away," he said. She looked at him in silence. "You wanna drink?"
"Yes," she responded and he smiled.
"What do you mean?" she asked shakily after the bartender handed her the drink.
"Here lets sit and I will explain," he said.
"Okay," she replied and they found a couch to sit down on.
"I mean, that it is surprising that Troy hasn't made it clear that you are his for forever," he said. "I mean, if I was with a girl like you I would make sure that I had you for life."
"What do you mean?" she asked a little tipsy.
"Gabriella, please. You are amazing. You are beautiful, smart, sweet, you are the perfect girl," he replied and put a hand on her thigh.
"Greg! What are you doing!" she exclaimed and stood up.
"Gabriella," he said standing up and pulling her close. "You need a guy who knows how amazing you are."
"What and you are that guy?" she said with attitude.
"Yeah, I am," he said looking into her eyes.
"Get off of me!" she exclaimed.
"Come on Gabs, Troy is in LA, he will never find out," he said in a sleezy tone.
"Greg let go of me!" she whined.
"No, you are way to fine!" he said and forcefully pulled her closer.
"stop!" she said.
"shut the hell up," he said and tried to kiss her, but she broke free.
She kneed him in the you know where and he fell to the floor and she stormed off. When he got up off the floor, he walked over to sharpay. Without a word he handed her the money, and she just smiled.
TWO DAYs LATER
Gabi was sitting in her bed eating breakfast in Boston, where she had a concert that night.
"What the hell happened in New York!" stacy exclaimed bursting into the room.
"What are you talking about?" she asked.
"I think you know exactly what I am talking about," she replied and put a magazine on the bed. Gabi crawled over to it and picked it up. The headline read: Gabi hooks up with Troys teammate! The pictures that will kill Troy.
She looked up at her assistant completely speechless.
"Care to explain," stacy asked. Gabi told her the whole story and stacy just sighed, "Ok I believe you. But I don't know if Troy, let alone the country will."
"Does he know?" she asked. Before stacy could answer Gabi's phone rang. She looked at the caller ID and it was Troy.
"Troy, I can explain," she said frantically answering the phone.
"Please do Gabriella," he said in an angry tone.
"Me and stacy were bored so we went to the club, and he walked up to me and we started talking and he started asking me questions about our relationship and why we aren't married," she was in tears at this point, "and tried to get me to doubt our relationship. So I got really upset so I had another drink, then he told me that I shouldn't be with you I should be with him and he started hitting on me and I said no and then he pulled me closer and I told him to let go of me but he wouldn't and he just was more forceful and then he tried to kiss me but I finally broke free. Troy please you have to believe be," she cried.
"Yeah, I believe you," he sighed.
"Thank you," she said calmly. "Will you talk to him?"
"You bet your ass I am gonna talk to him," he said in an angry tone.
"Thank you I love you," she replied.
"Yeah I love you too," he said and hung up the phone.
THE LOCKER ROOM
"Where is Greg?" Troy asked Chad as he walked into the locker room.
"I dunno what is going on," he asked.
"He saw Gabi at a club in NYC and tried to take advantage of her. And a magazine got pictures of him holding her and his hand on her thigh," he said with anger.
"I am gonna kill him!" Chad exclaimed.
"No you won't," Troy said.
"Why not!" Chad exclaimed.
"Cause that would deny me the pleasure of doing it myself," he replied.
"Ok well if you need backup."
"Yeah," he replied and patted his friend on the back. Just then Greg walked in.
"You have something to say for yourself," Troy asked Greg with anger.
"Troy what are you talking about?" he asked.
Troy grabbed him and slammed him against the wall. "You know exactly what I am talking about."
"What the fuck dude!" he exclaimed.
"You tried to take advantage of my girlfriend!"
"How can you blame me she is fine."
Troy just punched him right in the nose. "I swear to god if you ever look at her again…" Greg lunged at Troy and they ended up wrestling on the ground. Multiple players were trying to pull them off of each other. It didn't work until their coach came in.
"What the hell is going on in here!" he exclaimed.
"Well Greg over here decided it would be a good idea to hit on my girlfriend and then didn't accept the fact that she said no, and tried to force her to get with him," Troy replied. This angered the coach for he had always liked Gabi and was very strict when it came to the ways of treating women. "And now a magazine as pictures of him all over her, so people think she cheated on me."
"Is this true Greg," he asked.
"Yes," he mumbled with his head down.
"I want you in my office now. Troy do you have a copy of this magazine?"
"In my car," he replied.
"I want it now," he said.
Troy left to get the magazine and Greg walked into the office.
LATER THAT NIGHT
"Hey Troy," Gabi answered the phone scared he might still be upset.
"He babe I have good news," he said cheerfully.
"Really? What?"
"Coach found out what Greg did and next year he is off the team," Troy replied.
"Are you serious!"
"Completely," he responded.
"Wow, I am sorry that I created so much trouble," she said.
"No don't be. We don't want a guy like that on our team, he probably would have done it to another girl sooner or later," he said.
"Oh okay, well thank you," she replied.
"Anything for you," he said.
"I love you."
"I love you too," he replied.
