You Belong With Me
Chapter 6
That night Gabriella and Troy were hanging out at his place. They started to watch a movie but Gabriella wasn't paying any attention. She was thinking about Chad.
"Why don't you like Chad?" she asked Troy suddenly.
"What?" he asked confused.
"I know you've never liked him I've just never known the reason why?"
"Maybe because he's obsessed with you" he replied irritably.
"He's not obsessed with me. He's my best friend"
"He's always jealous when I hang out with you. And you know it. He's in love with you and he always has been and he always will be"
"So what, that's him not me I love you"
"Are you sure about that. All you ever do is talk about Chad and how much fun you have with him." Troy started to raise his voice.
"So what's your point?" she asked angrily.
"I'm sick of it. He's trying to take you from me. He hates the fact that you chose me over him. Your best friend the guy you've known your whole life"
"I didn't choose you over him" she said annoyed.
"Think about it Gabriella. How many times have you blown him off this week for me?"
There was a moment of silence until Troy broke it.
"Exactly" he said softly.
"You know I only blew him of for you because you and I had been going though a rough time and I just wanted to make things right. He's still my best friend no matter what you just can't accept it". She yelled.
"Well I would if he just backed off a little and left us alone for once"
Gabriella gave Troy a look of disgust.
"Chad will always be in my life and if you can't accept that then maybe we shouldn't be together". She said calming her voice down then continued on "we're finished".
Gabriella turned and walked out of the room Troy left standing there in disbelief. He couldn't believe it was really over between them.
