A word of advice: Don't Go to College its just simply too much work and you dnt have time for ANYTHING! Anyway Finally a new chapter! :)


Troy looked over at a quiet Gabriella as he pulled into a empty parking space. He turned the car off and took a deep breath as if he were annoyed.

"Are you just goin to stay mad at me?" He asked still not understanding her reasoning.

"Troy you bought a house...without me." Gabriella stated.

"I didn't know that was such a bad thing! I thought it was a beautiful house…I wanted it for us! What the hell is your problem?!" Troy yelled.

"That is something we are supposed to do together! We decide things like this together we are a couple!" Gabriella yelled back.

"You didn't even give the house a chance." Troy stated.

"I don't have to!" Gabriella said.

"Ok you know what fine…I'm goin into my graduation party without all of this negativity so if you have to act like this then don't hang around me." Troy said opening the door and getting out the car as Gabriella followed.

Inside the part Sharpay was walked up to the cute bartender and smiled at him "Can I have a diet coke please?" she said as the bartender grabbed a cup and smiled back at her. Sharpay was thinking he had the most beautiful smile. He had a hardcore look about him. He was tall, kind of built with nice brown hair.

"No alcohol? What are you underage?" the cute bartender said with a laugh.

"No." Sharpay said with a giggle "I just don't drink." She said smiling.

"Yea me either." He answered looking down at her wrist when he handed her the drink "So how long you been sober?" he then asked.

"Um" Sharpay said looking at her wrist with him "three years." She then answered.

"4 years." The bartender said.

"Huh?" Sharpay said confused.

"I've been sober for about 4 years. Drugs and alcohol." He then said.

"I'm sorry what's your name?" Sharpay asked a little bit excited to meet someone like her.

"I'm Justin. And you?" Justin asked beginning to pour another drink for someone else.

"Sharpay." She answered.

"Sharpay? As in Sharpay Evans?" Justin questioned.

"That's me….how'd you know?" Sharpay asked finally sipping her drink.

"I just heard you were in LA doing some big movie." Justin said.

"Well I was…but all my friends and my brother graduated so had to come home for that." Sharpay said with a smile. Then looked over as Zeke sat next to her.

"Dude I'm not serving you anymore alcohol!" Justin quickly said knowing how much Zeke had been drinking.

"Fine." Zeke said then laid his head on the bar as Justin gave Sharpay a wink and went back to work.

"Yea you have definitely had too much. What's wrong?" Sharpay said lifting Zeke up to talk to her.

"Taylor. That's what's wrong with me." Zeke said in his slurred speech.

"I know you got it bad for her, but she is with Chad oh and they have a kid." Sharpay said.

"I know Shar…but she keeps acting like she wants me then all of a sudden she wants to be a family with Chad and she's making me sick. Me and Chad used to be best friends." Zeke explained.

"Yea I know. Come on…let's walk you to your hotel room so you can sleep some of these emotions off." Sharpay said getting up.

Meanwhile, Chad walked outside the party for fresh air when he seen Troy standing outside as well.

"What are you doing out here?" Chad asked with smirk.

"Trying to get away from Gabriella. You?" Troy said with the same smirk.

"Trying to get away from Taylor." Chad said laughing.

"I bought Gabriella a house and surprised her with it. What did you do?" Troy said.

"She got mad at you?" Chad asked confused.

"Yes…major drama about it…I try to do something nice and look what happens." Troy said.

"Well I don't know if I can tell you or not but me and Taylor finally set a wedding date for this year." Chad said with a smile.

"Aw really?" Troy said excited "It's about time. I guess you guys finally stopped arguing and stuff." He then said.

"I guess you heard that from Gabriella." Chad said and Troy nodded "It's just that I gave up everything to be there for her, The little money I get goes to her and Mykayla plus bills, and just last year I know she cheated on me with Zeke and won't admit it." He then spilled.

"You really think so?" Troy asked.

"I know so. Just because I didn't graduate like the rest of ya'll doesn't make me dumb." Chad then said.

"I don't think your dumb dude. I think you're smart because your priority is your family." Troy explained as Chad looked at him "You are definitely not like the rest of these guys out here. Mykayla knows who her dad is." He then explained some more.

"Thanks man." Chad said happy to hear some encouraging words.

"No problem." Troy answered.

"So I never said congratulations about the NBA." Chad then said.

"Yea thanks. I figured you were busy or…" Troy said.

"Jealous." Chad answered.

"I refuse to believe that my best friend would be jealous of me." Troy said with a smile looking at the disappointment in Chad's face "Come on dude you have to learn to be happy with who you are. Whatever life deals you just do the best you can." Troy then said.

"You got that from Coach Bolton." Chad said with a laugh.

"Yea but it sounds good!" Troy said laughing "Come on lets go back inside." He then said as both of them made their way back into the party.

Sharpay made her way back to the bar to find Justin.

"What are you back for a shot of kool-aid?" Justin joked.

"Ha Ha." Sharpay said with a smile.

"I'm about to get off of work." Justin said with a smile.

"Um are you too busy to walk a tired nice young upcoming actress to her hotel room?" Sharpay said giving a invitation.

"Sure but I have to go out through the back if you would like to leave with me that way." Justin said lifting the door part of the counter so Sharpay can walk through.

The two made it outside smiling at each other but Sharpay's heart almost dropped into her stomach when she seen a girl laying on the ground in front of the back door.

"Oh my god!" Sharpay yelled while holding her chest as she watched Justin kneel next to the girl to help her "Is she ok?" she then asked.

"I don't know. " Justin said as he picked the girl up and moved her long black hair out of her face.

"Tiffany?!" Sharpay shrieked with panic when she realized it was her friend who she used to party with and work with.

"You know her?" Justin questioned as Sharpay nodded "We have to get her to a hospital." He then said as the two hurried to his car to bring Tiffany to the hospital.
