Thanks for the reviews! As a reward, you get another chapter before I continue on the other stories! I really have to work on them…

Chapter Two: Please

The next day, Troy and Gabriella sat with Chad and Sharpay at lunch. They ate their lunch, and Chad and Sharpay were practically all over each other, with Chad resting his hand on her upper thigh and kissing her every ten seconds.

Gabriella looked at Troy with her pleading eyes, and Troy cleared his throat. "Um, Chad? Sharpay?"

They looked at him, annoyed that they had been interrupted.

"What are you doing tonight?"

"Why?" Chad asked, holding Sharpay's hand.

"Do you want to meet us for dinner?"

Eyeing them suspiciously, Chad finally looked at Sharpay, who nodded. "Okay," Chad agreed, a little reluctantly.

Gabi smiled, offering up a few places they could go. They finally decided on Latina's, the most expensive Italian restaurant in town.

Later that night, they sat around their table. Troy called their waitress over after they had decided on their meals. Chad and Sharpay had decided on lasagna. Troy and Gabriella had chosen pepperoni stromboli. While they waited for their food, Troy looked at Chad and said, "So, uh, do you guys have any plans for Sunday morning?"

"We're not coming to church," Sharpay said.

"Why not? Church is so much fun! It's a lot better than sitting around doing nothing," Gabriella supplied.

"We don't sit around and do nothing. We actually always stay at each others houses on Saturday nights, and that means a lot of having fun," Sharpay countered.

"Why is it that every conversation that we have always ends up with you two talking about your sex life?" Troy said.

"Why don't you two have a sex life?" Chad shot back.

"Because we aren't gonna have one for a long time. Sex before marriage is wrong," Gabriella stated.

"How can something so wonderful be wrong?" Sharpay questioned.

"It just is," Gabi said.

"Please come visit, at least once," Troy begged.

"Well, I guess we could come to visit just once, to make you happy."

Gabriella smiled. She began explaining her church rules, such as no wearing short skirts and really low cut shirts, no chewing gum obnoxiously while it's quiet during the sermon, and no swearing or showing "Public Displays of Affection" (hint, hint) on church grounds.

Sharpay and Chad left soon after they ate. Troy and Gabi smiled at each other and kissed gently before they left. Their plan had worked. Now they couldn't wait to put it into action.

On Sunday, Troy came over to pick Gabriella up for church. He sat on her bed while she went into her closet to get dressed. When she finally came out, he stared at her in awe. She was wearing a pink and white sparkly sweater and a white skirt. Neither of them were loose, with both fitting perfectly over her curvy figure and the skirt cutting off right above her knees.

She kissed him and grabbed his hand. His eyes left her body and focused in on her eyes. He blushed when he realized that she had been looking where his eyes had been focused on. "Troy, remember our promise…we have to go anyway."

"Right. Come on, let's get over to Chad's."

"What about Sharpay?"

"Sharpay? Where do you honestly think she is?"

"Oh. Yeah, you're probably right."

"I know I'm right."

"Okay, Mr. Know-It-All, let's move," Gabi said teasingly. She pulled him out of her room and literally ran into her mother in the hallway. "Mom, I'm so sorry!"

"That's okay. Just don't get too caught up with each other next time or you might fall down the stairs," Ms. Montez told them. She smiled.

They both blushed and ran out to Troy's car. They kissed one last time before heading on over to Chad's house. They inspected both of their outfits. Chad was wearing a two-toned red polo t-shirt and jeans. Sharpay wore a slightly low cut pink and blue baby doll shirt and a tight pair of baby blue pants. Both Troy and Gabi approved their friends' choice of church apparel and off to church they went.

Service went well, with their youth pastor, Malachi Deschanel, speaking about the powerful love that God gives to each and every one of the congregation and that He loves us no matter what.

At dinner, Troy and Gabriella saw that Chad and Sharpay kind of enjoyed the service. They took the opportunity to invite them to come to church camp the next weekend. This was their last week of school for their junior year. Next week would be full of fun, having water fights, playing team games, having campfires- all in sunny California.

Chad and Sharpay said that they would have to think about it, and Sharpay got a strange look on her face. Gabi decided to ask her about it the next day at school.

But when she went to ask about it, Sharpay got angry and told her that they weren't going to come to camp.

"Sharpay, no! I didn't mean to make you mad. I just wanted to see if you needed something," Gabi pleaded.

"I'll tell you at camp," Sharpay said. With that, she stood up and left the lunch table. Gabi smiled, knowing that whatever news that Sharpay had couldn't be that bad.

Unfortunately, she had no idea that it was something that was keeping Sharpay from becoming a Christian. Something that Chad needed to know. Something that she hadn't told anyone…
