Chapter Four

Troy was still awake and talking to Chad and Zeke on instant messenger.

BasKetBallGuy: really guys. this girl is… emotional. very.

WhatTeamWildcats: so what is the problem again?

Perfect Crème Brulee: why

BasKetBallGuy: i don't know. mom and dad wont tell me. say that i don't need to know.

Perfect Crème Brulee: how do you know what she wants

BasKetBallGuy: she carries a notebook everywhere with her. she writes down everything.

WhatTeamWildcats: that has to be annoying

Perfect Crème Brulee: really

BasKetBallGuy: i told her that and she ran out of the room and mom and dad yelled at me.

There was a knock on Troy's door.

"Come in." he answered, still typing to his friends.

"Its getting late Troy." Jack told his son.

"Just talking to the guys Dad."

Jack motioned Troy to back away from the desk. When the area was cleared, he stepped to the keyboard and began tying.

BasKetBallGuy: Get to bed. You are going to be here by 10am for a hard practice.

Perfect Crème Brulee: lol yes coach

WhatTeamWildcats: yeah coach

Before he turned away from the screen, he saw that they were talking about Monica. He turned and looked at his son.

"Don't be telling them personal stuff about Monica."

Troy nodded. "Yes Sir."

"Alright. Night son."

"Night Dad."

Jack left the room and closed the door as Troy scooted the chair back to the desk.

BasKetBallGuy: night guys. see you tomorrow.

Perfect Crème Brulee: night

WhatTeamWildcats: see you guys

Troy lied in bed that night wondering about Monica. He really was sorry for what he said and he felt like and idiot for having said it.

He decided that he was not going to try and force her to talk. At least, not as obviously anyway.

Hours later, Troy was woken up from a dead sleep to hear a faint cry. At first, he thought that it was a dream, but it went on long after he knew he was awake.

He walked out of his room and headed down the hall. When he passed Monica's room, he knew the crying was coming from her.

He went back into his own room and over to his balcony. Walking out onto the ledge, he began to maneuver himself onto her balcony, careful not to make any noise that would frighten her.

Through the moonlight that shined into her room, Troy could see the outline of Monica's body laying on her side with her back to him. The gentle shaking of her body told Troy that she was indeed crying, and probably wasn't going to stop anytime soon.

He stood outside the balcony doors and waited till she relaxed and fell back asleep till he went back into his room.

Troy Bolton didn't know it at the time, but that was going to be a nightly routine that he would secretly continue until the soft cries cease from her room.


Ok, first off, I am going to respond to a review that I believe had no reason to be submitted to my story.

shut up ashley tisdale is an amazing actress and has beautiful voice u r just
jealous of her and by the way vanessa sucks at acting and if vanessa didnt try
out for hsm ashley wiuld have got gabriella

Alright, first, dont tell me to shut up. I am allowed my own opinion as you are allowed yours. You may believe that Tisdale is a wonderful actress and singer, but I believe different. Only because I am an actress and singer myself and I have experience of knowing good talent when I see it and I can see that she is very rigid in her performances and her voice is strained when she sings. I am not jealous of her because there is no reason for me to be jealous of her. I believe that she lacks talent to be a true performer, so why would I be jealous of that? Second, if Vanessa sucks at acting, as you claim, then why would she have beaten Tisdale for the part? Wouldnt Tisdale have gotten the part, even if Vanessa auditioned, if she was better? Third, if you are going to attack someone, at least have the balls to leave a signed review so you dont look like a coward. And last, grammar, punctuation and spell check are your friends. Might want to try and use them to show that you might have some form of intelligence.

Alright. Now that is over with, onto what I wanted to say in the first place.
First, I really dont like this chapter (so feel free to say how crappy it is, I promise I wont jump down your throat like I just did to the person mentioned above), but I wanted something to happen before the team practice the next day. This chapter is basically the result of my spending 4 hours doing psychological case studies, on the verge of losing my mind and sanity and in desperate need of a break, any break. lol
Second, again, keep the theories coming! Even if you already mentioned one, if you think of another, post it! I seriously love reading those more than the story reviews! lol
I might try and push out a new chapter later today, but dont expect one. My brain is so fried from all the studying and lack of rest, that I'm sure I could just tip my head to the side and my whole brain would flow out of my ear and into a glass. lol Nice mental image huh?

Keep the theories coming!!! Seriously, has an author ever asked for anything other than story reviews??? lol
