A/N: Just to warn you guys, this chapter gets graphic. I know a couple people were uncomfortable about it before, but there is a reason this story is rated M. If you guys don't want to read it, I'm pretty sure you'll figure out when it's coming so you don't have to read the rest of the chapter. But anyways, thanks so much for reading and the reviews are great! Thanks so much!
It was Saturday and Troy had no idea why he was on top of his game that day. But he was. It was almost godly to watch him perfectly dribble down the court and pass the ball to Tyler. He sprints into position and watches as the freshman takes a shot, but misses it. Troy sighs. Tyler was stiff when she shot, but it would just come with time. He sprints back as Joey takes it from the other side of the court. Troy bends his knees and plays the defense that he was taught. Before Joey could even try to pass the ball, Troy steals it away and dribbles back down, to jump up in the air for a perfect slam dunk, since the hoops were lower then normal.
Troy lets go of the rim and feels his smile burned onto his face that is until Perez sounds his whistle to call them in. "Alright bring it in!" Perez yells as they all run over and take a knee to the floor. Jason pats Troy on the back who beams back at him, knowing that he was defiantly on top of his game today, for reasons that he had no idea why. "We have a week until we start the tournament verses the other teams here." Troy knew it was tradition. They had their own little NCAA type of thing where they would play the different teams through out the camp. "You guys are looking great. But you gotta pick up the intensity a bit. The coaches are looking for MVP for the camp, so we wanna see your best."
"You got it Bolton." Someone says while patting Troy's sticky shoulder. He grins as he sees Perez look at him for a moment, before then continuing on with his speech.
"You guys gotta step it up." He says while looking at all of them. "Play as a team." His eyes lock on Troy's when he says this and Troy feels his own piercing blue eyes narrow a little. "Alright, you guys are done." He says while turning away. Everyone stands up and walks towards the locker room that was connected to the gym. He looks around to see that other teams were starting to file in as well, but what really catches his attention is the lone figure that was standing in the middle of the gym with a ball in his hands. Troy looks back at Jason who was waiting for him and motions him to go on.
"I'll catch up with you later." He says as he jogs past the crowd that was going to the locker-room. Troy jogs out into the middle of the court, and when he finally hears the final door shut to the locker room, he turns to see that the guy takes a shot and misses. He groans frustrated and Troy feels a small smile take over his face, knowing what it felt like to be that kid. "Tyler!"
Tyler turns around after grabbing his rebound and smiles. "Hey Troy." He says while walking back and taking another shot. It bounces off the rim and he groans angrily again.
"What's up man?" He asks while Tyler shrugs and grabs his rebound again. "I'd think you'd wanna get the hell outta here."
Tyler shrugs again. "Not til I get this." He says while taking another shot and missing.
A smile breaks out onto Troy's face. It reminded him of the hours he put in when he was trying to be better then Aaron. It didn't matter how hot, how cold, how shitty the weather was. He was always out there trying to beat the odds. Hell, it did pay off in the end. He was the captain of the varsity team, but Troy would trade all of that for one day to go differently.
"Here man, let me help." Troy says while walking over. Tyler looks at him and nods.
"I'm that bad huh?" He asks jokingly, but Troy shakes his head.
"Nah… but here." He says while holding his hands out for the freshman to pass him the ball. He does and Troy feels the bumpy surface beneath his fingers tips. "You gotta use you're knees more." Troy explains while demonstrating to the younger player. He suddenly flashbacks to the day he got into his fight and sees Aaron showing him. "Then push off with the balls of your feet." He does this and watches as it sinks it, a shot that would defiantly make Aaron proud. "Try it."
Tyler listens and grabs the ball. He bends his knees more and pushes off, just like Troy did a moment ago. The ball sinks in and a smile forms on his face. "Wow… that does help. Thanks."
Troy shrugs. "No problem." He says. "I had the exact same problem."
"Thanks Troy." Tyler says and takes another shot.
Troy smiles. "I'll catch you later." He says while turning around. His body suddenly stops as he sees a figure standing with his arms crossed. At first, Troy thinks the figure is glaring at him, but then he realizes that a small smile was playing on his lips. Troy takes a couple steps forward, locking eyes with Perez, and then walking towards the locker room to get changed.
He steps back out again to see that three other guys were standing there waiting for him. Chad walks towards him and smirks while they do their guy handshake thing. "You didn't think we were just gonna leave you did you?"
Troy smiles and he, Chad, Jason, and Zeke all begin walking towards the door. "I guess not." He says while they walk out and down the hallway. Music could be heard blaring from a couple levels below that Troy knew his girlfriend was probably dancing his heart out. "So J, heard from Kelsi lately?"
Jason shrugs while he places his hands in his jeans that he was now wearing. Troy was the only one still in basketball shorts since he figured there was no reason changing, he could just take a shower when he got back to his hotel. "I talked to her last night. She seems to be having fun." He says while Troy nods.
"What about you man?" Zeke asks while patting Troy on the back. "You and Brie seem to be on top of the world right now."
Troy smiles brightly as they walk down the stairs that was hot and sweaty since the hallways didn't seem to have air conditioning. "We are." Troy responds and couldn't help but imagine his gorgeous girlfriend.
"You takin' her out tonight?" Chad asks as they walk to the front doors of the gym and turn right, starting to make their way back to the hotel.
"Kind of…" He says slowly, already thinking about the plans he had for the evening.
"Well… just to warn you, Tay's coming over… so, you know." Chad says while Troy looks back at him for a moment and rolls his eyes.
"So that means don't come in cuz you don't want an interruption on your sex fest." Troy says while Chad laughs and pats Troy on the back.
"See, I knew you'd understand."
Troy rolls his eyes and continues to lead them down the street, back to the hotel were he could get ready for him and Gabriella's date tonight.
Gabriella smiles as she spins around in the mirror that was holding her reflection of herself wearing jean shorts, her small black Reebok shoes, a grey beater underneath a light blue one and a black zip up sweatshirt over it. Her hair was in tight curls and completely down as she turns around one more time to make sure she looked perfect.
The bathroom door opens and Taylor walks out with just a towel on. Her hair was dry and up in a cute knot, since Gabriella was pretty sure she didn't even bother to wash her hair."You look adorable." She says while Gabriella blushes a little. Taylor glances at the clock and raises her eyebrows. "Isn't Troy coming in an hour though?"
She nods slowly. "A little less… I just wanted to be ready." She says while Taylor rolls her eyes.
"Wow… I'm leaving for Chad's earlier and I'm still not ready." She says while she goes through her clothes and finally pulls out a pair of jeans and what Gabriella could see as a lace red tank top. "So where are you and Troy going anyways?"
Gabriella pauses as she tries to remember what Troy said on the phone earlier today. "I guess we're just having dinner on the beach or something." She says while glancing out the window to see that the sun was setting. Troy had told her he would pick her up by 8:30, and at the moment in was 7:45. She was getting extremely impatient. She hadn't seen him at all yesterday, since Zoey wanted the team to go out to dinner together.
She found this past week after the coach had sat in during their camp that she actually liked Zoey. She was hard, but at the end of the day she seemed to be a nice person after all. She knew at that moment that she was officially going to fit in at East High. At least, that was what it looked like for right now. But it defiantly helped that at the moment, she was dating their golden boy as well.
"Sounds romantic." Taylor says, bringing Gabriella out of her trance and she smiles.
"That's what I'm hoping." She says while fingering her cell phone that was laying on the table, almost praying that it would ring and Troy would tell her that he was coming over now. She turns back around to look in the mirror to make sure that her make up was perfect. After fixing her eyeliner, she turns back around to see that Taylor was now dressed and looking amazing. "Wow… you look hot."
"Thanks." She responds as she grabs the black purse that was sitting on her bed. "I'm leaving." She says while smiling at Gabriella. "Have fun alright? But not too much." She says with a knowing smile while Gabriella rolls her eyes.
"Get out of here." She says jokingly and watches as Taylor giggles. "I'll see ya in the morning."
"Bye!" Taylor waves as she walks out the door and then walks over to her own bed and sits down. About fifteen minutes later, there was a knock on the door. She rolls her eyes, thinking that it must just be Taylor forgetting her room key or something. She walks over and opens the door, to find her dark chocolate eyes grow wide at who was standing on the other side.
"Amber." She says slowly while Amber smiles at her. She looks the girl up and down, not understanding why she would be here. "Do you wanna… come in?" She asks slowly as Amber's smile grows larger as Gabriella opens the door wider.
"Thanks." She says while walking in to the small room. Gabriella was almost tempted to leave the door open, just in case something weird were to happen. Why was she here? Maybe they were having a team thing tonight again? But they couldn't, because she had to be with Troy. She was craving Troy. So she closes the door and watches as Amber sits down on her bed, making herself comfortable with Gabriella saying anything.
"So… um… what's up?" Gabriella asks slowly, still not knowing how to act. This was probably the first time that she and Amber were alone together. No one else around. Not Sharpay, not Taylor, not Troy. No one. To say Gabriella was threatened a little was a bit of an understatement. Why was this girl here?
"Well don't you look… cute." She says while making the last part sound like Gabriella was a four year old again. Gabriella's eyebrows rise as she looks at the brunette who was now standing and looking Gabriella up and down. "Are you going somewhere?"
Gabriella nods slowly. Was she trying to make small talk? This was so confusing. Why the hell was she here? "Um, yea Troy and I are going out." She says while watching Amber closely. Her eyes and facial features remain the same as she speaks Troy's name. What was up with this girl?
"Really? Where are you going?" She asks.
None of your business. "He's taking me to the beach." She says and watches as a smile breaks out onto Amber's face. What? Why would she smile at that? It didn't make any sense to Gabriella. But Amber strolls over to where the window was and glances outside. The sun was almost set at that moment, and Gabriella glances at the clock to see that it was 8:20. Troy would be there in ten minutes.
Amber looks back at Gabriella, still smiling her famous smile. "I'm sure you two will have… fun there." She says 'fun' in a weird way that almost makes Gabriella skin crawl. "His beach dates are the best." She pauses as Gabriella's eyebrows rise again. "So I hear."
This suddenly makes Gabriella more worried then what she was before. How would Amber know if his dates were fun or not? She watches as the brunette's piercing green eyes were cutting through Gabriella, almost as if trying to confirm what Gabriella was thinking. Did she ever have a thing with Troy? Did they date? Gabriella knew that Troy hadn't had a girlfriend before her since freshman year, but she never asked him about his sex life.
But there was a sudden knock on the door that brings Gabriella out of her thought again. She slowly walks backwards towards the door, as if trying to see if the answer was written on her body. As if there was a hickey or a scratch or scar that had Troy's name on it. She finally grabs the door knob and opens it slowly, finally ripping her eyes away from Amber to reveal her boyfriend leaning up against the door frame. "Hey beautiful." He says while kissing her cheek. "Sorry I'm early, but I was getting sick of watching Chad and Taylor trying to fuck each other."
Gabriella opens the door further to let him in. "It's fine." She says in a small voice as she glances back to see that Amber was still standing in the middle of the room.
"I brought pea…" He starts to say but his eyes lock on the girl in the middle of the room. "Amber?" He more questions then states as he quickly glances at Gabriella with confusion written across his features. She tries to tell give him a look that was just as confused as his own, but he looks back at the girl who was still smiling in the center of the room.
"Hi Troy." She says in her perfect seductive voice that suddenly makes Gabriella's skin crawl again. She feels her body tense up but then suddenly feels a soft hand on her own and Troy grabs it and laces their fingers together, almost giving her reassurance. "So you're taking her to the beach huh?"
Gabriella's looks up into Troy's eyes that were now narrowed on the girl standing there. "Yea…I am." He says in a voice that Gabriella found unfamiliar. "And we have to get going." He says in the same hard and tense voice.
Amber smiles at him and then nods. "Well… I wouldn't want to ruin anything." She says as she walks towards them. She walks past the two, brushing up against Troy's body in the process. Gabriella looks up into his face, to see that it was still as hard as a rock. "I'll see you later Brie." She says while still smiling and then Gabriella hears the door click open and then shut.
Troy suddenly spins around and looks at her. "What the hell was that about?"
Gabriella shakes her head. "I have no idea. She just showed up and started talking, then you showed up." She says while finally looking up into his piercing blue eyes. Amber's words were circling around her head. How much did she know about him? Had he ever been with Amber? Why didn't she ever think of this before?
Troy sighs and then takes her hand again. "Whatever. Come on, let's go." He says while leading her towards the door. Gabriella grabs her purse and follows him out the door.
About two hours later, Gabriella could feel the rough sand beneath her the navy blue blanket as she laid her head down on Troy's chest. He was drawing invisible circles on her arm with his thumb. Her mind was going a mile a minute. Amber's words didn't seem to get out of her head all through out their dinner, and all she could think about was if Troy's hand that was touching her bare skin, touched Amber like that in anyway.
The stars were shinning down on them as they lay in silence, neither one wanting to say a word. Gabriella could tell Troy was peaceful, while she was uptight. She couldn't stop thinking about him with other girls. Could she ask him? They had been dating for about a month now. She and Collin hadn't had the sex talk until their sixth month. But with Troy, it was different. She was falling for him so much faster, and from what it seemed harder as well. Why not ask him?
She takes a deep breath and looks up at him. "Troy?"
He looks down at her and smiles. "Hmm?"
"Um… can I ask you something and you promise not to be weirded out by it?" She says slowly as Troy props his body up on his elbows, leaving Gabriella's arm. His eyebrows raise as he looks down at her curiously.
"Um… sure?" He says. That wasn't good enough.
"You have to promise." She says. Troy then sighs and gently leans down and connects their lips sweetly.
"I promise." He mumbles against her lips as she takes a deep breath and nods.
"Ok…" She starts while pulling away from him. "Um… I really don't know how to…" She starts but then looks up into his crystal blue eyes, which were filled with lust. She takes another deep breath, finally finding the courage to actually ask him. "Ok… how many girls have you been with? Like… slept with?"
Troy lets out a breath. "You've been thinking about this huh?" He asks as Gabriella nods slowly and he finally sits up, bringing her with him. "How many girls or how many times I've done it?"
Gabriella almost winces at the question. "Err both." She says and stares into his eyes. "And be honest."
Troy nods and laces their hands together. "I've done it seven times." He says as Gabriella does her best not to wince. She knew it had to be a high number; she just wasn't sure how high. "My first time was after we won the championship my sophomore year. I did it twice with a junior two parties after that. One time after prom my sophomore year. A junior asked me, so I went with her and did it that night." He says and then sighs again. He suddenly tenses up, but Gabriella just assumes it was because he was slightly uncomfortable. "I did it once with a dancer last summer." He says slowly. "Then I went out on a date with a girl in my grade and we did it after. I did it with her again at a party." He says and then looks back at Gabriella. "So I've been with six girls."
Gabriella nods slowly. "Oh… so you've been around." She says softly as Troy's face drops a little.
"Hey… I'm no different then I was before." He says while lifting her chin up. "You're not pissed are you?"
Gabriella shakes her head. "No." She responds. "It was in your past, you could do what you want. But one more thing." She says and looks up at him slowly.
"What?" He asks while staring into her eyes.
"Have you ever been with Amber?" She asks the question that was dying to be asked. She watches as he carefully opens his mouth, but then sighs and shakes his head.
"No…" He says slowly while looking at the ground. Gabriella sighs and nods. She had to trust that he was telling the truth. If he said no, that meant no.
Troy smiles at her. "It's my turn. How many guys have you been with?"
Gabriella bites her lip a little as she thinks of how inexperienced she sounded compared to him. "Err… one." She says in a small voice as Troy smiles down reassuringly at her. "And we only did it once." She says and sighs. "It was my boyfriend of a year and a half." She says as Troy raises his eyebrows.
"Collin?" He asks, probably remembering what Gabriella had told him one time.
"Yea. It was the night of prom. He…err… we broke up a week later." She says looking away from him, not wanting him to ask why. "It's ok… towards the end, I couldn't see him in my future."
Troy nods and kisses her head again. He doesn't ask the question she was expecting, but instead she feels his lips against her neck. "What about me?" He asks while she could feel his lips sucking gently. "What can you see with me?"
Gabriella was almost scared as he asks this question. They were only dating for a month, while she and Collin had dated for a year and a half. It took her that long for them to finally have sex, but she was pretty sure she didn't want to wait that long with Troy. In fact, she probably wouldn't have complained if he took her right there. But is that was she wanted right now? His lips trail up her neck as she suddenly feels them press against her own. She wraps he arms around his neck and feels him lean her back. Her back connects with the rough sand that was covered by the blanket as his body drapes over hers. "I… I wanna be with you." She whispers as they take a break.
Troy stares down at her with lust in his eyes. His lips crash down onto hers again in a heated kiss as his hand starts to make it's way up her shirt. She arches her back when she feels him massage her breast and a moan was stifled in his mouth. "I wanna be with you too." He whispers as his lips take a break for breath again as they then trail down her jaw line and back to her neck. His hand switches to the other breast that was craving the attention as Gabriella could feel a pulse was starting to form in between her legs.
"Troy…" She moans as he kisses down as he pulls of the black hooded sweatshirt she was wearing and kisses her cleavage while his hands still massaged her breast. He traces his spot back up to her lips. They connect again as she could feel he was beginning to grow on her knee.
"I love it… when you say… my name." He says in between kisses, reminding Gabriella slightly of when they were drunk last weekend. But now as he said it, she could tell it was full of lust and so much more meaningful. "Gab…" He moans as her hand brushes up against his growing erection that was trying to rip through his jeans. She plunges her hands through his hair as all thoughts of what Amber said
"Troy…" She says again, more loudly this time as his thumb flicks her nipple, but then he pulls his hand out from underneath her shirt and rests on her hip. Their tongues battle with each other as they were exploring the other's mouth, finding it a new adventure even though they had been in it so many other times before. But she then feels his hand that was on her hip come around to the front of her body and slowly unbuttons the button on her jean shorts.
Their eyes lock for a moment as they stop kissing. This was it. Gabriella had to make a quick decision. They stop kissing as Troy stares down into her eyes, almost asking for permission to venture somewhere he hadn't gone before. Did she want this? Her question was answered though, when she leans up and connects their lips again in a heated kiss. "Gabriella."
He smiles against her lips as he pulls down the zipper and then pulls off the shorts to reveal an extremely wet pink thong. His fingers pull down both sides of the underwear and discard them where Gabriella's shorts were. It was a good thing that it was so late, and no one else would be walking by, because then they would see a completely exposed bottom of Gabriella. A trail of fire starts as she feels his fingers slowly run up and down her folds. He flicks her clit slowly, making Gabriella throw her head back in pleasure. "Troy!" She begs for him.
He kisses her harder and she suddenly feels her body being thrown into shock as she feels a finger slip inside her. He pauses for a moment, letting Gabriella recover as she tries to push her pelvis towards his own, but found it unsuccessful. Small whimpers could be heard from her body as he begins moving slowly, in and out of her while massaging her clit with his thumb. Sensations were shooting through her body as Troy's expert hands were working magic on her. "God Gab, you're tight." He whispers in her ear as she feels another finger slip inside her.
"Oh God Troy." She says while spreading her legs wider. She grips his back while he adds a third finger. Her nerves were shooting fire from her vagina as Troy's fingers increased speed with every plunge he gave her. Her hips were buckling to his finger's beat as she couldn't help but keep moaning. With one final deeper thrust, orgasm rips through her body as she arches her back and shuts her eyes, pleasure soaring through every nerve ending. She screams his name with her head being thrown back wildly.
Once her back collapses on her, she pants heavily while suddenly feeling the sweat stick to her forehead. After finally opening her eyes, she feels Troy pulls his fingers out of her as he gently wipes her liquid on the blanket below him. She could see that his erection was now completely evident through his jeans. "You alright?" He asks her while wiping some hair that was sticking to her forehead away as he gently kisses it.
"Yea…" She says as her pants were still loud. She straightens out her beaters a little after regaining energy and sits up. Troy smiles at her as he gently kisses her lips, though she could feel that he was doing his best not to push anything further, since he was still hard. "That felt amazing."
Troy smiles at her. "Good." He says while reaching over and grabbing her panties and shorts. He hands them to her while she slips them on slowly. She then suddenly leans up and kisses him passionately, trying to show him the same love that he had just shown her.
She crawls up onto his lap and slowly traces her fingers down the front of his shirt. She grabs the own button on his pants as he suddenly pulls away from her and raises his eyebrow. "What are you doing?"
She smiles seductively at him as she pulls down his zipper and rubs her hand against him, listening to him moan against her lips. "You did that for me. Do you really think I was gonna leave it up to you to do?" She says while nodding towards his erection that was now showing as she pulls his green boxers down and wraps her small fingers around him, while he moans loudly again.
"God you're incredible." He lets out while Gabriella smiles and slowly begins to move her hand up and down his shaft, knowing she made the right decision about letting them take their relationship to the next level.
