Okay here's the next chapter! DRUM ROLL PLEASE LOL. Anyway, thanks for putting up with the long wait! I really appreciated it!  Please review like always!

The reception was quite sappy to say the least, especially with Gabriella. She was crying during the ceremony and even before she got to talk to Taylor for the first time since she got married.

Gabriella was heading over to Taylor before the reception started to congratulate her.

Troy was watching Gabi from afar while he was trying to have a conversation with Chad. It wasn't working too well though.

Gabi walked over to Taylor, smiling and giving her best friend a thumbs up. She practically ran over to her and squealed as she pulled her into a tight hug.

"I'm so happy you're married!" Gabi squealed.

Taylor smiled. "I know! Did you know, this is the first convo I've had with you since I got married!" She squealed.

Gabi laughed. "Yeah, Tay I know!" They both laughed and started jumping up and down while hugging each other.

HSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSM

Meanwhile over with Chad and Troy…..

Troy snapped his head when he heard two girls from afar screaming and jumping up and down. Troy just laughed and shook his head.

Chad looked at Troy and then he looked at Gabi and Taylor. Chad raised his eyebrows.

"You know Troy, I think that after the reception you need to talk to Gabi and work it all out" Chad said.

Troy turned to him and sighed. "I don't know. We'll probably just get into another fight."

Chad groaned. "Oh come on, Troy! You're not as stupid as me are you?"

Troy turned to him. "Now I'm more stupid than you! Look at you! You just got married to the woman of your dreams when I just let go of mine…"

Troy turned his head away sadly. Chad sighed. "Well then talk to her and tell her you don't want to fight, you just want to slowly talk things out with her."

Troy nodded his head at Chad. "Since when did you get so smart?" He asked him.

Chad shrugged. "Taylor put quite an impact on me these past years!"

Troy and Chad both laughed.

"So man, you know what you have to do right?" Chad asked him in conformation.

Troy turned and looked at Gabi who was now talking to Taylor, Sharpay, and Kelsi intently. Troy smiled and then turned to Chad again.

"Yeah, I know what I have to do."

HSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSM

After Taylor and Gabi had settled down, the both started to talk.

"So, now that I'm married to my fairytale prince, what about you?" Taylor asked her curiously.

Gabi sighed. "Well for now I don't have one."

Taylor breathed heavily. "You sure about that?" She said as she turned Gabi to face Troy who was talking to Chad.

Gabi groaned and closed her eyes. "Taylor not now!"

"Why not? She has a point?" Sharpay's voice said. Gabi turned to her and opened her eyes to see Sharpay and Kelsi now standing there with Taylor.

Gabi sighed. "Guys, I really don't want to talk about him right now. I just want to enjoy Taylor and Chad's day for the moment!"

"GABI! You said that earlier! Quit making up excuses, what's this really about?" Taylor asked.

"Well….you know we got into a fight, it's just I really don't know what to say!" Gabi said with worry in her voice.

All three girls sighed. "It's okay to be scared right now Gabi" Kelsi said.

Gabi nodded her head. "I know it's just I have no freakin clue what to do!"

Everyone laughed. "It's okay Gabs" Taylor said reassuringly.

"Yeah Gabi, do what you want. But I know that deep down in you heart, what you really want to do is talk to him and be with him" Sharpay said straightly.

Gabriella gave a small smile. "Yeah" She said with no emotion at all.

Sharpay laughed. "But, just so you know, I saw the look you gave him right after the wedding when you parted ways after walking back down the aisle!"

Everyone laughed as Gabriella looked at her with her mouth wide open. "What the heck, Sharpay? I was just trying to be friendly!"

"Jeeze, girl calm down! She was just kidding!" Kelsi pointed out.

Gabi quickly calmed down. "Sorry it's just that we sort of talked while walking down the aisle about what a great wedding that was and how great it seemed that our best friends both got married…"

Taylor. Sharpay, and Kelsi's mouths all formed an 'O'. "Yeah…"Gabi whispered.

Taylor groaned. "Gabi, you're hopeless!" She whined.

Gabi looked at her, confused. "Huh?"

All of the girls rolled their eyes. "Come on, Gabs! That would've been the perfect opportunity right there to tell him to meet you somewhere after the reception!" Sharpay said to her.

"Well maybe I was still in shock of what happened last night!" Gabi yelled raising her voice.

Everyone stopped to look at her with confusion and she could feel Troy staring at her. "Sorry" She mumbled but didn't look at Troy.

Sharpay, Taylor, and Kelsi were all giggling silently. Gabi turned to them and glared at them. They quickly shut up.

"Smooth Gabs!" Taylor whispered. Gabi just glared at her.

"I need some wine!" Gabi grumbled as she went over to the bar.

All of the girls rolled their eyes and followed after her.

HSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSM

What did she mean by that? Troy wondered to himself as he walked over to the main table where the bride, groom, bridesmaid, and grooms men sat at the reception.

Troy thought back to when she yelled out in front of everyone in the Church reception room. 'Maybe I was still in shock from what happened last night!'

WHAT DID SHE MEAN BY THAT? Troy yelled again in his mind.

Suddenly, someone snapped fingers in front of his face. "Troy? You with me?" Chad's voice said.

Troy snapped out of his thoughts. "Oh uh yeah dude."

Chad looked at him weirdly but then said, "You're going to be sitting next to me and Taylor is on my other side, okay?"

"Oh uh yeah!" Troy said nervously.

Chad looked at him weirdly again. "Are you ok, man?" He asked unsurely.

"Yeah! Dude, I'm fine!" Troy said quickly.

"Whatever" Chad mumbled as they sat down.

The girls soon appeared at the table and said 'hi' before sitting down. Troy quickly looked at Gabi but looked away when she noticed him looking at her.

Gabi sighed and stared at the table.

Taylor smiled at Chad and kissed him. All the girls said, "Aw."

Everyone except for Gabriella. She just rolled her eyes. "Well, they are married aren't they?" Gabi said sarcastically.

Everone laughed as they order their drinks. When he got to Gabi she said, "A wine for me, PLEASE" She said with exaggeration.

They all laughed and Chad said, "Whoa Gabster, take it easy there!"

Gabi glared at hum. "Watch it there buddy! You may be married now, but I still have the authorization of telling you that I will NOT get drunk!" Gabi snapped.

Chad put his hands up in the air. "Hey Gab, I'm sorry. It's just that you seem stressed."

Gabi rolled her eyes as Chad quietly murmured to Troy, "I bet it has something to do with you. You better watch over her!"

Troy nodded as Gabi looked at them and narrowed her eyes. :Uh, Gabi are you okay?" Troy asked her nervously.

Gabriella sighed. "Yeah, I'm fine."

Troy smiled faintly and looked down. Everyone noticed this and Sharpay said, "Hey! Maybe we should do the toasts now!"

Everyone agreed silently as Troy and Gabriella both looked up. THEY were both the ones who had to make the toasts.

Troy coughed. "I think I'll go first." Troy stood up and clinked his glass together to ge everyone's attention.

"Um, excuse me! May I have your attention please?" Troy yelled out. Everyone turned to look at him.

Troy cleared his throat again before starting, "Thank you. Well now, it's time for the best man and the maid of honor to make their speeches. I guess I'll go first. My name's Troy Bolton and I'm Chad's best man. I've also been his best friend for as long as I can remember. Since Kindergarten. And to see him getting married to a woman, that I have also known for a really long time, it's….it's just amazing!"

Taylor and Chad smiled at each other.

Troy continued on. "I know Taylor and Chad for as long as I can remember. And they are the perfect couple. It didn't seem like it at first. But once they got together, it was true that they were. And no one could deny it! Taylor and Chad, got married today, at 2:00 PM. That means they will get to spend the rest of their life together! And once I get married, I know that they would say the same thing for me" Troy finished.

Chad and Taylor both smiled at him as the all started clapping. Troy nodded and said, "I think it's time to hand it off to the very beautiful maid of honor!"

Gabriella blushed slightly but then smiled at Troy. "Thank you. Hello everyone! My name is Gabriella Montez and I'm Taylor's Maid of Honor. As you all know, Taylor and Chad getting married, was the greatest thing that possibly could have happened today! And this weekend for me has been, very life affirming to say the least…."

Troy smiled and looked down.

Gabriella continued. "But it has been amazing through all of it. I got to see old friends again who I missed very dearly. And I do mean all of them…." She continued as she emphasized 'all'.

Everyone knew what she was talking about and just smiled.

"But, what I loved the best out of all of this, was knowing that Taylor and Chad got married and are now happily living their life together, makes me know that old friends don't always loose touch, and these two people proved that for me!"

Taylor and Chad both laughed and nodded their heads.

"So, how did I meet these wonderful people? Well I met them in High School. I always moved around a lot, but this time I settled in a very special place. Right here. I met Taylor and we instantly clicked. We became the best of friends. And then Chad…wow. I met him in High School too. We soon had this brother-sister bond that I will cherish forever. He's like the brother I never had."

Everyone smiled up at Gabriella.

"So, to wrap this up, I will have to say, Taylor! I know your going to have a great life together!"

Everyone clapped and smiled at Gabriella. She smiled back and then she turned to Troy who she nodded to. He stood up and at the same time they both raised their glasses and said, "Here's to Taylor and Chad! Congratulations!" Then they clinked glasses.

Everyone else stood up and all said, "To Taylor and Chad!" They all clapped madly as they settled down.

Both Taylor and Chad stood up and started to speak.

"Well being the bride and groom we shouldn't really be giving speeches, but this is just one big thank you to our best man and Maid of Honor. If it weren't for you two, you would have never gotten us together in the first place!" Taylor said.

Both Troy and Gabriella looked up and looked at them funny. "Huh?" They both said.

Taylor and Chad laughed. "Don't try to deny it!" Chad started, "we both know that you two got us together!"

Taylor laughed as she saw both of their expressions. "It's true. When Gabriella came to East High, they both did something that everyone thought was impossible. They both tried out for the Winter Musical, even though Troy was a basketball jock, and Gabriella was a Science girl. Since of course the school had cliques, everyone was shocked to see them pair up together. So even Chad and I at the time thought that what Troy and Gabriella did wasn't what was best for them so….we briefly tried to break them up."

Chad cut in, "But then after we did something horrible that got Gabriella mad at Troy, we could see it in both of their eyes. They were both definitely not happy! So Taylor and I realized that what we did, we just weren't being friends at all. So we tried to get them back together, and while doing that both of us realized we had something in common. And I felt bad for all those years I called her a Science geek."

Taylor slapped Chad on the arm. "Ow!" He whimpered. The whole reception guests laughed.

"Anyway" Taylor started again, "It was because of Troy and Gabriella who broke up the cliques. It was because of Troy and Gabriella that made the whole school turn upside down! And, it was because of Troy and Gabriella who brought Chad and I together."

When Taylor finished, her and Chad both turned to Troy and Gabriella and smiled. "Thank you guys!" The both said.

Everyone clapped but Taylor quickly stopped them. "But just to finish it off, we both realized something. And now it's your turn for you both to realize something. You will always make a great team."

Taylor smiled and sat down. Everyone stayed quite as Troy and Gabriella snuck a glance at each other. When they locked eyes with each other Gabriella tried to give a small smile but Troy quickly looked away. Gabriella sighed.

Everyone looked at each other, worried and hoping at the same time, while the food was brought out.

HSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSM

After the dinner, everyone went out to the dance floor as the Bride and Groom shared their dance.

Gabriella stood in the back with Sharpay and Kelsi, watching Chad and Taylor dance. She smiled to herself.

Troy was watching her and decided to go for it. He walked up behind her and quickly whispered in her ear, "Don't cry."

Gabi quickly spun around and she saw Troy standing there smiling. She nervously laughed. "Yeah, but it's hard not to. I mean they are just so happy!"

They both laughed and looked down, unsure of what to say next. Thankfully, the song ended and Taylor and Chad strode off the dance floor.

A fast song came on and Sharpay, Kelsi, and Taylor all pulled Gabi on the dance floor to dance.

Troy watched her as Gabi made her way onto the dance floor and started dancing and laughing with her friends. Troy just smiled.

Chad walked up to him and shook his head at him. "You got it bad man."

Troy snapped his attention to Chad. "Uh what?"

Chad just shook his head. Just then a slow song came on. Chad listened to it for a minute and then whispered to Troy, "Remember what me and Taylor said."

With that Chad left to go find Taylor. Troy just stood there for a minute thinking back. Whatever happens, You will always make a great team.

Troy then realized what he had to do. He saw Gabi making her way off the dance floor. He quickly ran over to her and stopped her.

"Um, Gabi, do…do, do you want to dance?" Troy asked her nervously.

Gabriella turned to look at him. She then gave a small smile. "Sure."

He smiled back as he took her hand and led her out onto the dance floor. They swayed along to the music, completely silent. After awhile, Gabi got comfortable and laid her head on Troy's shoulder. She smiled to herself. Maybe everything will be okay She thought to herself.

Troy smiled when Gabi put her head on his shoulder. He only hoped that this night would go good.

As soon as the song was over Gabi tried to turn around, but felt someone tugging on her arm. She turned around to see that it was Troy.

"Gabi, can you take a walk with me?" He asked sweetly.

Gabi sighed. She knew what he wanted to talk to her about. "Okay" She said quietly. He took her hand and led her out the Church rec room.

The gang watched them from afar. After they disappeared out of the Church, they all smiled to themselves and let out a breath. "Thank God!" They all whispered.

HSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSM

Troy and Gabi both walked outside and enjoyed the fresh air. They sat down on the steps and sat in silence for a few minutes.

"I know what you want to talk about" Gabi silently whispered.

Troy shot his head up, but then nodded. "Yeah. About yesterday night I.."

Gabi cut in. "No it was totally my fault! I left without saying anything and I left you hanging!"

"No Gabi! I understand completely! When you left I understood! You don't have to say it. Plus it hurts too much" Troy said softly.

"Troy I.." Gabi began but Troy stopped her.

"No Gabi! What's done is done! You don't have to feel sorry for me!" Troy said. And with that he started to walk away.

Gabi looked at him intently and took a deep breath. She closed her eyes and said, "I still love you!"

Troy stopped in his tracks. What did she just say? Troy asked himself. He spun around slowly.

"What did you just say?" He asked her slowly.

Gabriella sighed. "I said that I still love you!" Gabi had a tear going down her cheek.

Troy walked up to her but didn't say anything.

"I always have! I have just been so stubborn to admit it! I hated how things left off with us, and I hated that it took me this look to realize it!" Gabi yelled.

Troy kept walking closer and closer to her. She just kept letting her tears fall off of her cheeks.

"Gabriella, I just want to say I'm sorry" Troy stated.

Gabriella looked up. "About what? I was the one who messed up!"

Troy shook his head. "No you weren't! I said stupid things I wish I never said 5 years ago, and then I said more things yesterday night! I just…I just"

But Troy couldn't go on because Gabi pressed her finger to his lips. "Troy, don't speak."

Troy looked at her as he stared into her eyes. Hr noticed that she was now crying but no sound was coming out. She just had tears streaming down her cheeks. Troy took his thumb and quickly wiped them away.

Right now they were standing so close together. "I love you Gabriella. Always" Troy whispered.

Gabriella sniffled and smiled up at Troy. "I love you, too Troy!" She choked out.

Troy closed the gap between them and pulled her into a gentle kiss. They pulled back and smiled.

"Come on!" Troy started, "We don't want to miss the rest of Taylor and Chad's big night!"

Gabriella smiled as Troy held out his hand for her to take. "Let's go!" She said as she took his hand.

They both walked hand in hand back into the Church.
