"Come on honey your gonna be late Chad should be outisde" Janice McKessie said rushing Taylor out the door.

"Ok Ok Mom can I finish my pop-tart?" Taylor said annoyed.

"Finish it on the way to school, you have a attendance record to keep up Now OUT!" Janice said pushing Taylor out the door.

Taylor heard the door slam and rolled her eyes and took a bite out of her pop-tart as she made her way to meet Chad downstairs. Taylor grew butterflies as she made her way closer to Troy's apartment door. Her eyes connected with the golden numbers "412" on the door. Flashbacks of her conversation with the handsome teen went through her head and a smile grew on her face. Those blue eyes that glistened when he smiled. That smile that made her want to scream when he flashed her those pearly whites.

Taylor smiled as she saw Chad waiting for her at the bottom of the stairs. One strap of his backpack hanging on his shoulder as he leaned on the wall. He wore a black Hollister polo with blue jeans and black and white vans, his hair pulled back today. Just how Taylor loved it.

"Hey baby girl" He said pushing himself off the brickwall approaching her.

"Hey Boo" She said smiling. The two teens leaned in for their first kiss of the morning. Taylor always got butterflies feeling Chad's lips on hers. They pulled back and Taylor smiled as Chad bit his bottom lip staring into her brown eyes.

"Shall we walk my love?" Chad said extending his arm to Taylor.

"We Shall" Taylor said as she interlocked her arm with his as they started their walk to school.

Taylor and Chad walked past the neighborhood park where they spent most of their childhood days together.

"Aww Chad look remember we used to play together here everyday Taylor said running towards the swing and hoping on one of the swings.

"Weee Chad come push me!" Taylor said giggiling.

"Your such a big baby" Chad jokingly said smiling and walking towards her throwing his bag on the ground.

"But I'm your baby" Taylor said.

"And that you are my love" Chad said kissing her on the lips once again.

"Hey Chad bet I can beat you down the slide" Taylor said hoping off the swing.

"I bet you could cause im not getting on the slide" Chad said putting on his N.Y baseball cap adding more to his outfit.

"Ohh come on pleeeasssee" Taylor said.

"Fine" Chad said giving in.

Taylor giggled like a small child and she and Chad took their places on the slides.

"Ready darling?" Taylor asked in a British accent.

"Whatever" Chad said poking his tongue out at her.

"Go!"

The two slid down the curvy slide and Taylor hit the sand first. Chad coming second. Taylor giggled and chanted how she beat Chad like she said she would. Chad crawled to Taylor on his knees where she was laying on her back laughing to herself. He climbed on top of her looking down at her biting his bottom lip.

"That wasn't fair I want ready!" Chad said.

"Whatever baby you lost I won fair and square!" Taylor said laughing as she lay under him.

"Really?" Chad asked.

Taylor nodded as Chad leaned down and kissed her passionately. Taylor lifted her hands placing each hand on his face as she felt she was in heaven. Taylor opened her eyes and her eyes grew wide as she saw Troy Bolton laying on top of her smiling down at her.

"I love you Taylor" he said.

"Taylor…Taylor…." His voice drifted away softly.

"TAYLOR! EARTH TO TAY!" Chad said standing up looking down at Taylor as she sat there in a daze.

"Oh…sorry" Taylor got up in thinking about what just occurred in her imagination.

"What was that about? You ok?" Chad asked grabbing her hand softly interlocking their fingers as they started walking again.

"Nothing baby I was just in a daze after your amazing kisses" Taylor said kissing Chad on the cheek.

Chad laughed.

"So Tay we got a new player on our team. Well he's trying out today. Heard he's got game" Chad said.

"Really? Whats his name?"

"Troy…ummm thunder…no….Bolton , Bolton! That's his name" Chad said in deep thought.

Taylor felt her stomach do a summersault. "OH…never heard of him." Taylor said.

"Yeah well maybe you can talk coach into letting me watch you guys play so I can see if this new guy is as good as my baby?" Taylor said stepping in front of Chad and giving him a peck on the lips.

"Hmmm I sure will. But you should already know im the best, girl" Chad said cockily.

Taylor giggled as they walked up the steps of East High School. Taylor and Chad walked into the halls of the busy hallway hand in hand. Chad's fellow teammates came up to him and greeted him and the followed him creating a entourage for Chad. Gabriella came up to Taylor greeting her with a hug.

"Hey Gabs" Taylor said.

"Hey Tay…how was the morning walk?" Gabi asked nudging Taylor in the arm and winking her eye.

"Amazing" Taylor said dreamily as she walked ahead of Gabi to her locker. Gabi held back for a minute rolling her eyes playfully and laughing at her lovestruck friend.

"Sounds like someone is whipped" Gabi said puckering her lips into the mirror after applying lip gloss on her small lips.

"Whatever girl im not afraid to say I am…who wouldn't be? Chad is sooo hott" Taylor said laughing.

"Eww I wouldn't!" Gabi said.

"Haha" Taylor laughed sarcastically.

The girl opened their locker and applied last minute make up and lip gloss in the mini mirror on the inside of their locker doors. Taylor jumped as she saw those blue eyes behind her in the reflection in her mirror. Taylor slammed her locker door closed and turned to face no one else than Mr. Troy "bad boy" Bolton himself. Taylor felt her knees go weak as she saw him leaning on the lockers behind him while eyeing her as he licked his lips.

"McKessie" Troy said bitterly.

"Bolton" Taylor replied with venom in her voice as she switched her weight to one hip.

Gabi had her mouth wide open. Why didn't Taylor tell her she knew the new boy?

"Are you trying to stalk me?" Taylor asked.

"Oh..wait so your not bitching at me today? Hell must of finally froze over!" Troy said sarcastically.

"Oh please you weren't even in my thoughts you jerk!" Taylor snapped back.

"Im so lying" Taylor thought to herself.

"Liaaaarrrrr" Troy sang.

"Ughhh your such a little prick!" Taylor said.

"Come on Gabi!" Taylor said.

Gabi nodded and walked to Taylor's side.

"Ohh so this is the beautiful Gabriella you told me about Taylor" Troy said taking Gabi's hand and kissing it.

"Troy Bolton is the name beautiful" Troy said with a wink.

"I never told you about Gabi!" Taylor yelled.

"Why the hell not?!" Gabi asked.

"Oh hush Gabi!" Taylor said.

"Hey be nice Tay don't be jealous." Troy said.

"Pshh you wish and its Taylor and I would like it if you stop stalking me". Taylor said calming down.

"I can call you what I choose. And besides my locker is right here". Troy said opening his locker door letting it swing open. "Abracadabra!" Troy said with a wink.

Taylor rolled her eyes. "Oh great" Taylor said with a fake smile.

"Hey baby" Chad said coming up to the three wrapping one arm around Taylor's waist.

"Oh..wait…Troy right?....I'm Chad…team captain of the team" Chad said extending his hand.

"Sup" Troy said shaking Chad's hand.

"And this is my girl Tay and her friend Gabi" Chad said.

Troy looked at Taylor who rolled her eyes. Troy smirked. The word revenge went through his mind.

"Oh me and Taylor have met…right Tay Yeah she has told me so much about you on saturday?" Troy said with a wink.

"What?" Chad said faking to be happy.

"Ummm..uhh baby we don't wanna be late for class Troy is just a joker we never met before….right Troy?" Taylor said saying the last part through her teeth giving Troy a death glare.

"Taylor are you lying?" Chad asked.

"No Chad im not! Troy stop being an ass and tell him we never met a day in our life!" Taylor said.

"Whatever Sure" Troy said closing his locker. Troy walked off chuckling to himself.

"Tay baby what was that about?" Chad asked pulling Taylor to the side.

"Nothing babe Troy was just being an ass" Taylor said giving Chad a peck in the lips.

Taylor started walking but stopped when she realized Chad wasn't walking with her.

"Chad?" Taylor asked looking back.

Chad just shook his head and caught up with her and held her hand. They made it too Taylor's class and Chad eyed Troy in the class sitting at his desk listening to his ipod.

"He's in your homeroom?" Chad asked.

"I guess so" Taylor said playing with one of Chad's curly lock in his hair.

"Well..be good…remember who your boyfriend is" Chad said in a serious tone.

"Chad….Dont be that way" Taylor said softly.

"Whatever….bye baby I'll see you at my practice right?" Chad asked.

"You know it" Taylor said emotionless giving him a kiss one more time and walking into class.

Taylor felt her throat grow sore as she tried not cry. She hated being in a awkward place with Chad. He was all she had since her dad didn't want her. Chad was like her miracle angel the day he asked her out and he's been with her through all hard times and good. Taylor knew she would have nothing to live for if Chad left her.

"Tay you ok girl?" Gabi asked seeing the pain in Taylor's eyes.

"Yeah I'm fine" Taylor said walking to her seat.

Taylor looked at Troy who was looking at her in concern. Taylor hid her sadness by rolling her eyes at him and in return Troy sucked his teeth and rolled his eyes also.

Class started and Taylor felt Troy burning a hole through her head. Taylor refused to acknowledge his look knowing if she looked she wouldn't be able to turn away. Besides she had Chad to focus on .

The bell rung and Taylor rushed out the class with Gabi on her heels. Taylor felt her heart drop as she saw Kaya Lexy in a deep conversation with Chad who was smiling. Taylor walked up to the two breaking their engaging conversation.

"Hey baby" Taylor said.

"Sup" Chad said.

Taylor was hurt. Sup? That's never how Chad greeted her.

"Ahem" Taylor said signaling for Kaya to leave.

"Oh well Chad..I'll just get notes form you after school…" Kaya said.

"Wait Kaya what notes do you need?" Taylor asked.

"Oh um History class we don't have that class together" Kaya said.

"Actually we do…here" Taylor with a smirk holding out the History notes in Kaya's direction.

"Oh…um I think I know where mines are….thanks though Taylor!" Kaya said walking off fast.

"Bitch….." Taylor said.

"Tay that wasn't even necessary…"Chad said.

"Excuse me? It wasn't necessary for me to confront some hoe for being all in my mans face?" Taylor asked.

"Stop trippin" Chad said.

"Trippin?..Chad you are the one trippin'! You have been bitching since you thought me and Troy had that conflict this morning!" Taylor said.

"Well sorry for being concerned if my girl is probably fucking some guy behind my back!" Chad said.

"Your over reacting! I said we don't know each other! You should believe me I'm your girlfriend! How could you say that about me?! Chad after all we've been through and you blame for something you think I did cause your insecure?!" Taylor said.

"Whatever….Im going to practice….Coach said it's a closed practice…" Chad said walking off.

Taylor closed her eyes and closed her mouth shut tightly trying to keep in her sobs. Gabi hugged Taylor and kissed her forehead telling her its going to be ok.

"Gabi I can't lose Chad. I just can't..i would die!" Taylor said.

"I know Tay and your not…just let him cool off Tay…" Gabi said.

"Come on lets go watch him practice" Gabi said.

"But it's a closed practice" Taylor said.

"Not its not Tay it's a Monday closed practices are on Fridays" Gabi said.

The two girls walked in the gym hearing the sound of sneakers screeching on the court floor and whistles blowing and basketballs bouncing repeatedly. Taylor and Gabi saw all the boys doing warm up drills and Taylors eyes caught a glimpse of Troy also warming up.

Chad saw Taylor and Gabi walk in as they sat on the bleachers.

"It's a closed practice ladies" Chad said sternly.

"Chad don't be an ass we have every right to be in her just as much as you!

And you know you wanted Tay to come!" Gabi said.

All the other players turned and looked at the two girls including Troy. Troy and Taylors eyes connected and his blue eyes nervously looked around trying to find something to excuse him from their eye conversation.

"Fine." Chad said with a smirk.

"Alright guys lets start try-outs!" Chad said.

The new guys formed a line and Zeke Baylor was first in line. Chad, Jason, and D.j sat at a table with clip boards.

"Ok Zeke let me see you right hand and left hand lay-ups" Chad said.

Zeke nodded and did as he was commanded.

"Three pointer" Chad said. And Zeke obeyed again.

"Wow Baylor is good" Gabi said.

"Yeahh." Taylor said sadly.

"Come on Tay cheer up Chad is just being a jerk….guys are like that and you know it. Gabi said patting Taylor's thigh.

Taylor only nodded. Troy looked at her again and flashed a small smile.

"I can't stay in here Gabi" Taylor said getting up.

"No Taylor…sit!" Gabi said.

Taylor hesitated and soon gave in and sat down.

"Bolton your next" Chad said.

Troy grabbed the basketball from Chad and bounced it a couple of times before he did his lay-ups.

"Wait for my command please" Chad said bitterly.

"Whatever dude" Troy said but obeyed.

"Lay-ups…and three pointer….and half court" Chad said.

Troy did the all commands without any flaws. Chad felt jealousy grow in his veins. Who did Troy think he was coming to East High hitting on his girlfriend and trying to take his name in basketball.

Troy stood there with a smirk knowing what Chad was trying to do. "Anything else?" Troy asked.

"Don't be a smart ass" Chad said.

"Oh no" Taylor said to herself knowing Chad was the competitive type.

"Ok dude" Troy said trying to keep his cool.

"Dribble…with two basketballs up and down the court" Chad said forcefully throwing the balls at Troy.

"Chad come on man that's unnecessary he did everything we needed him to do" Jason said.

"Shut up" Chad said.

Troy only shook his head laughing and starting his task. He bounced the balls one by one in a steady rhythm. Backwards, forward sideways.

"Troy is talented...isnt he?" Gabi asked Taylor, Taylor didn't answer she was too into what was going on.

Troy kept his eye on the path he was going down. He stopped. He turned and started his way back to where Chad and the judges were.

"Quit already Bolton?" Chad yelled to other side of the gym where Troy was.

Troy only smirked and Chad grew quiet as he heard the basketballs bouncing again. Troy added some tricks as he dribbled back to Chad. Chad stood there with envy and anger in his eyes . Before he knew it Chad was standing before an undefeated sweating Troy Bolton.

"Done" Troy said with a smirk as he dropped the ball.

The other guys stood up and started shouting and cheering for Troy. Chad couldn't stop Troy if he wanted too.

"You and me one on one to 10 points now!" Chad said as it grew silent.

"Chad man?" D.J said.

"No…come on Bolton" Troy said putting his clipboard on the table and grabbing a near by basketball.

Chad bounced the ball and Troy walked to the court by Chad. Chad made his move and Troy was right on his heels and soon took the ball from Chad and scored. Troy gave Chad a smirk and bounced the ball.

"Gabi Chad is getting out of control I didn't know he could get this jealous!" Taylor said.

"I know. Maybe we should stop him before things get worse" Gabi said standing up .

"Chad man I know we started off wrong. But look me and Taylor have nothing going on man if that's what your upset about. No harsh feelings dude?" Troy asked while bouncing the ball.

"Whatever just play this has nothing to do with Taylor!" Chad said.

Troy made his move and scored another point.

"Come on Chad man can we just drop this? I don't want a bad start at this school" Troy said.

"Just play the damn game!" Chad said.

"No…this is immature and childish..if I have go through all this to be on the team then I'll pass" Troy said throwing the ball down ad walking away.

"Get your ass back over here finish the game!" Chad said grabbing Troys shoulder.

Troy stopped and turned to face him

"Don't put your fucking hands on me" Troy said.

"Oh so now whiteboy wanna get mad?" Chad asked.

"Fuck you Chad" Troy said pushing Chad.

Chad pushed back and Troy's fist connected with Chads jaw and Chad's fist met Troys eyes. Taylor and Gabi ran down the bleachers as the guys ran towards the fight breaking it up.

"Chad! Stop!" Taylor said standing there with tears in her eyes.

Chad pulled back and his heart drop and a wave of guiltiness wash over him as he saw the love of his life standing there broken hearted and disappointed.

Troy closed his eyes he couldn't stand to see girls cry especially Taylor for some reason. He wanted to envelope her into a hug lasting forever and reassure her everything was going to be ok.

"Taylor …baby" Chad said walking towards her, but Taylor backed away and ran off out the gym.

"Good job asshole" Gabi said standing there shaking her head and running after Taylor.

"Practice is over!" D.j and Jason yelled.

Everyone walked to the locker room but Troy lagged behind. He wanted to hit Chad again for not going after Taylor. Troy had to do something. He was wrong himself for this morning. He pretty much started it all. He had to do something. So he did. He ran out of the gym at full speed looking for the broken hearted beauty. Taylor McKessie.
