Last chapter, everyone was cleaning and fighting (kind of says that in the title). This chapter is just before they get into their sleeping bags to sleep. And in this chapter, there will be drama AND humor. What a great combination. Enjoy!

Eventually, everyone had their sleeping bags set up, and they were ready for bed, except for Troy.

"Chad, could you carry me up to my room?" Troy asked from the couch.

"Yeah, it's the only thing on my 'I can't wait to do' list," Chad said sarcastically. Except maybe rip my eyes out with a spork," he added to himself.

"Thanks, man," Troy said again as Chad struggled to carry him up the stairs. "You can put me here, I want to try and walk on my own," he said once they got to the upstairs hallway.

Chad put Troy down and stayed there to see if he could still walk. And even though Chad was getting annoyed from having to carry Troy, he was Troy's friend, and he just wanted Troy to be okay.

"I can go from here, it only stings a little. The ice definitely helped. You can go back," Troy said.

"Okay, but if you want me, I'll be downstairs," Chad said, acting worried.

"I might need help getting downstairs, but I'll try and get down on my own," Troy said.

"If you think that's best," Chad said, and he went downstairs. And on the whole way down ,he danced and said to himself over and over, "I don't have to carry Troy! I don't have to carry Troy!"

Once he got down, everyone was sitting on their sleeping bags, talking.

Gabriella noticed Chad come down stairs. "How's Troy?" she asked.

"He says he's doing better, and it stings a little, and he'll call me if he needs help," Chad replied.

"Chad? Help!" Troy called, but no one heard him.

"Thanks, Chad. You've been a real help for Troy today," Gabriella said.

"Chad? Anyone?" Troy yelled, but still, no one heard him.

"I hope Troy's okay," Kelsi said worriedly.

"OKAY!!! I'M COMING DOWN NOW!!!" Troy screamed at the top of his lungs. "AAAAH!!! I'M FALLING!!!!" Troy screamed, and he threw a small chair from the hallway down the stairs to get everyone's attention.

"Oh my gosh! Troy fell down the stairs!" Gabriella shouted, and she rushed over to the stairs. Chad rushed along with her.

"Oh no! He died, and turned into a chair!!!" Chad shouted when he saw the chair.

"No he didn't! He's up there!" Zeke said when he went over to the stairs, too.

"Troy Bolton! You stupid idiot! You scared me to death!" Gabriella yelled angrily as she ran up to him.

"NO!!! DON'T KICK ME AGAIN!!!" Troy yelled as he dragged himself up the stairs, crying in pain.

"I was just going to hug you," Gabriella said once she caught up to him.

"Really, because I could use a hug," Troy said.

Gabriella gave Troy a hug and said, "Chad, you bring him down."

"Of course, this is good exercise for my arms," Chad said, once again, sarcastically.

Chad carried Troy down the stairs, and everyone, who came to see Troy, followed them into the living room.

"So Troy, does it still hurt?" Jason asked.

"The swelling went down, and it WAS better until Gabriella hurt it again. She made me run away from her when I thought she was going to kick me. She was all mad at me. I can't believe-" Troy started.

Gabriella put her hand over his mouth. "We get it, I'm a bad person," Gabriella said sadly. She walked away and sat on the stairs.

Everyone started to get up, but Taylor stopped them. "You guys stay here, I'll go," she said.

Taylor went over to the stairs, and found Gabriella sitting there with her head in her hands.

"Gabi? Cheer up! He's your boyfriend," Taylor tried to cheer her up.

"I know," Gabriella said cheerfully as she took her head out of her hands, with a big smile on her face.

"Gabi? But you...sad...Troy...now...happy?" Taylor said confusedly.

"Why do you think I made it into the musicale?" Gabriella asked rhetorically. (A/N: For those of you who don't know what rhetorical means, it means, like, if it's a rhetorical question, it's a question not meant to be answered. Such as, "What am I, stupid?")

"Hmm...you auditioned?" Taylor asked truthfully.

"The question was rhetorical, but no. I made it because, well, ya, partly because I auditioned. But because I can sing, and act!" Gabriella explained.

"OH!!!! So that was all acting, I get it now!" Taylor said.

"Yes, but don't tell Troy," Gabriella said.

"I won't! I'm very reliable," Taylor said.

They both walked together back to the living room.

"Troy, Gabriella was pretending to be sad, she loves you, and thinks you're hot," Taylor said.

"So much for reliable!" Gabriella said.

"Really?" Troy asked hopefully.

"Well, yeah," Gabriella replied.

"Thanks, you're hot, too!" Troy said, and he kissed Gabriella. Soon the kiss deepened,a nd they started making out. It was a couple of minutes before anyone said anything.

"We insist you try the chocolate chip instead of the blueberry!" Chad shouted.

Troy and Gabriella stopped making out and laid on the floor.

"What?!?" Kelsi asked Chad. He just shrugged.

It was quiet, until Sharpay noticed Chad bouncing up and down.

"Chad, why in the world are you bouncing up and down?" she asked.

"I gotta go to the bathroom," Chad said as he grabbed the front of his pants.

"Third door on the left," Troy said, pointing down a hallway.

"Gotta go REALLY bad!" Chad shouted, and he ran down the hallway into the third door on the right. "Wrong left!" he shouted, and he ran to the door across the hallway.

After two minutes, Chad came back.

"We should go to sleep now," Troy said.

"Yeah," Ryan agreed. Everyone got into their sleeping bags, including Troy, who dragged himself over to his sleeping bag and got in by himself, no Chad this time.

Zeke got up, turned off the lights, and got into his sleeping bag, which had pictures of cupcakes on it.

How was that? I thought it was good. Sorry it was so long. Next chapter will be them in their sleeping bags, talking in the dark. It should be here soon. Review, and bye!
