"Troy?" Banqueesha said in a sweet seductive voice. She lade next to him on the pull out couch. "Troy, wake up." She said quietly. She knew he couldn't hear her. She slowly put her hand on his chest and rubbed it.

Troy woke up to the feeling. "Gabriella?" He said forgetting where he was for a moment.

Banqueesha quickly got off the pull out couch when she noticed that he was awake.

Troy blinked his eyes a couple of times and them looked around. When he saw Banqueesha he was puzzled as to what had happened. "Did you just rub my chest?" He asked unbelieved.

"No." She lied putting her hands behind her back. "I just came to wake you up."

Troy had been at Chad's for about a week now. He really hadn't talked or seen Gabriella since then. "Oh, well thank you." Troy said politely. "I must have been dreaming" he thought to himself.

"Yeah well if your hungry I cooked some pancakes for you in the kitchen." She said staring at him. Banqueesha couldn't believe that Troy Bolton was staying in her house. She had a little bit of crush on him. She did ever since she was nine, and now that she was fourteen and he was eighteen maybe it would be the perfect time to admit it. If she wasn't so scared.

"Thank you." He said sitting up on the bed. "I don't think that I'll be eating though. I have to go to a college recruit thingy today. I won' t be back until tomorrow night." He explained to her. He didn't know why he just told her that. Maybe because he was missing talking to Gabriella..

"Oh, well if you need anything just call. I have nothing to do today." She said flashing a smile. She was trying so hard to let Troy know that she wasn't a baby anymore. She was fourteen and very mature for her age.

"Really I should be leaving my flight leaves in an hour and a half." He said looking at the clock on his cell phone. He got off of the bed and left the room. He quickly jogged to the bathroom, but before he could get there Brian ran inside of it.

"Damn it!" He said punching the door of the bathroom. He loved that Chad gave him a place to stay, but there were so many people here that there was always a line for everything.

Chad came up behind Troy. "I bet Brian ran in there before you could get there." He chuckled.

"Yeah how did you know that?"

"That's his move. If I were you I would just wake up early to get in the shower. That way you don't have to wait and there will be hot water."

"I couldn't go to sleep last night." Troy admitted. "I felt so alone with nobody sleeping next to me."

"That sucks. Why don't you just go back to Gabriella than?" Chad asked even though he already knew that answer.

"Yeah right, I am a man. She is supposed to come running back to me. What the hell would I look like running back to her?"

"Whatever man. I gotta go to work. I hope you have a good college recruiting thing, and I'll see you tomorrow."

"Hold up. I know this ain't none of my business, but don't you think that you should talk to Taylor? She's been calling here non stop asking what's wrong."

"I know she's coming over after I have work. My house will be free and her and I are going to work things out." Chad said with a smile.

"You better not have sex with her. You know that would be wrong."

"Look I've been taking my medicine, and I will use protection."

"Man, if you give Taylor an STD I will kill you." Troy said with a serious face. "She doesn't deserve a guy like you."

"Why do you care so much?" Chad asked suspicious.

"I have known Taylor since I was in kindergarten. We have been friends forever. I have only known you since third grade."

"Whatever man, I need to get my ass to work before I get fired. I will do what I want to do with my girlfriend." He said and walked out of the hallway and into his car.


Montez/Bolton Apartment

Gabriella just got out of the shower and went into the bedroom. She looked at all of her clothes and looked back at her stomach. "There is no way that I'm going to fit any of this stuff." She said throwing the short she had in her hand on the floor.

She started to throw all of the things in her closet on the floor to. She moaned loudly in announce. She finally found a double x t-shirt and a pair of sweat pants.

She looked at herself and felt so self conscious. "I'm not leaving the apartment like this." She said out loud to herself. She went to the kitchen and started to heat up a bowl of soup.

She went over to the TV and pressed the power button. "America's Most Wanted" was on. She went to go get her soup when the television said something familiar.

"Mariah Montez killed her fiance of one month Antonio. They were said to have had an argument and Mariah took a knife and stabbed him about thirty times."

"Antonio was found dead a week later in the house that Mariah and him shared." The television said.

"Mariah was found in New Mexico about a week ago, but she fled from there to somewhere in Canada. Police officials think that she might of dyed her hair orange and now goes under the name Jessica."

Gabriella stared at the television screen like her life depended on it. She couldn't believe how the television did not tell the whole story. Antonio was beating her and her mom did it for self defense.

"If anybody has any information on this deadly fugitive please call this number." The television continued.

Gabriella turned off the television in anger after she just heard what the television had said. Her mother was plenty of things, but a deadly fugitive wasn't one of them.

She went over to the kitchen and grabbed her soup. She had to get her mind off of what she just had heard. She picked up her phone and was about to call Troy when there was a knock on the door. "Who could this be?" She thought to herself.

She looked out of the peep hole, but it was blurry. She opened the door cautiously and looked at the jerk that was standing in front of her.

"Can I come in?" Cohen asked looking sweet.

"It depends are you here for a better reason than to make me upset?" She asked.

"I'm here because I want to take the paternity test." He said looking down at his feet. "I'm sorry for what I did when I came before. I just did it to get under Troy's skin."

Gabriella opened the door and let him in. "What made you change your mind?" Gabriella asked. She had a weird feeling that Cohen was just doing this for one of his own selfish reasons.

"I need to know if that baby is mine or not." He said a little nervous. "My mother didn't know who my father was and I guess it messed up my life in some way. I don't want the same thing to happen to this kid."

"Are you sure that you want to go through with this?" Gabriella asked trying not to get to excited.

"Yeah, I have my car running downstairs. I'm ready now."

Gabriella's heart stopped. She wanted to know who the father of her baby was. She was just so scared that it wasn't Troy's. "I'm ready." She said grabbing her purse.


Chad/Taylor Scene

Chad opened the door to his house and checked to see if anybody was there. "Mom, Brian, Kadeem, Banqueesha, anybody?" He screamed.

When nobody answered he quickly grabbed Taylor's wrist. "The cost is clear." He said with a smile.

Taylor smiled back and then started to kiss Chad on his neck. "I'm so happy that you asked for me to come." She said in between kissing his neck. "I thought that something was wrong." She said.

"Nope, nothing is wrong." He said taking off her shirt. His guilt started to get the best of him, but his hormones where more powerful.

Taylor began to unzip Chad's pants. "I think we should go to the bedroom." She said stopping herself. She took his hand and lead him to the closest bedroom. Which happened to be his moms and step -dads."

Chad began to unzipped Taylors pants. As he slowly kissed in between her breasts.

Taylor began to moan softly. "I love you." She said loudly.

Chad stopped kissing her and pulled away. "What did you just say?" He asked catching his breath.

"I said that I love you." Taylor said confused. "Why did you stop?"

"I can't do this." He said. The guilt was becoming way to much for him.

"What's wrong?" She asked looking down. "It's my body isn't it?" She said with a tear running down her cheek. "I know that I gained a few pounds, but I thought you wouldn't care."

"What? No, it's not your body. Your body is perfect."

"Than is it my face? Or maybe it's my legs? What do I have to do for you to love me?" Taylor asked.

"Taylor this has nothing to do with you." He said truthfully. "This is about me."

"What?" She asked taking his head and moving it toward hers. "Look into my eyes." She said.

Chad slowly looked into her eyes.

"You can tell me anything. I love you and I will do anything to make you happy. Just tell me what is going on with you." She said emotionally.

"Taylor I cheated on you."

"You what!?" Taylor screamed. "How could you?" Her face started to turn red and tears started to come out of her face. "I thought you loved me."

"I do, and that's why I won't have sex with you. Taylor I have an STD called chancroid."

Taylor whipped the tears from her face. She looked at Chad and punched him in the eye. She got up and started to put her clothes back on. "How could you?" She screamed.

Chad held his eye in pain. "I didn't mean to. I love you Taylor and I need you in my life. It's my hormones those girls walk past and they look so good..."

"So what I don't look good enough for you?" Taylor asked. "I know that I'm not the best looking girl in the world, but I thought in your eyes I would be."

"Taylor wait that came out wrong." He pleaded. He got off of the bed and started to chase after her. "Please don't leave." He said grabbing her arm.

"Get the hell off of me." She cried. "Chad I love you more than life itself, and this is how you treat me?" She said crying. "You make me feel so ugly and sometimes you make me want to even kill myself." She said yanking her arm out of his grip.

Chad watched as Taylor hopped in her car and left. He was still holding his eye and he was still half naked, but none of that mattered. He hopped into his car and followed after Taylor.

"I can't let her kill herself and especially not because of me." He said in his mind as he followed her car. As he was driving behind her he saw her car have a head on collisions with a pole.

"No!" He screamed parking the car in the middle of the street. He got out of the car and ran to the scene. He went to the drivers seat and looked at Taylor. Her body was forword and her head was laying on the airbag. Her head was gushing blood and so was her hand.

He punched the airbag which popped it. Then he picked her up and took her out from the car. As he was holding her sp close to her body he looked at her.

She had glass all over her body and she looked really pale. He put her down on the ground and screamed for help.
