'Rye, we need to talk'

'Me and Sharpay talked and she made me see sense. I don't know what I want right now. I'm not sure if it's you or if it's Troy, hell it could even be Chad I just don't know'

'You know that's ok. I get that you need space and you need to think things through properly, I just want you to know that when you've done your thinking, I'll still be here.'

Gabriella smiled weakly,

'Thanks Rye'

'What are you gonna tell Troy?'

'Nothing apart from I need space to think for a while. I'll give him the ring back and say it's not the end forever, just for a while'

'I think that's good'

'Really?'

'Yeah, really'

Gabriella hugged him before leaving for Troy's house, letting Ryan tell Sharpay what had happened.

She knocked at the door and stepped back, facing the road. She didn't realise the door had been opened and stayed there for a few moments before turning around and jumping back in shock. Troy was stood there, arms folded.

'Troy, we need to talk'

'I'm busy'

'Troy please, it's important'

'Like I said, I'm busy'

'But it's about-'

Gabriella stopped when Chad came to the door, followed by Taylor.

'Go away Gabriella' Taylor said.

'I just want to talk to Troy'

'That's just it isn't it, what you want, it doesn't matter about what anyone else wants!' Troy said, fiercely.

'Troy, it's not like that-'

'Yes it is! It's definitely like that!'

Gabriella was getting really upset now, and cross.

'Troy, it's about us'

'Gabriella, Troy isn't bothered right now, we're throwing a little baby bash for Elizabeth. If you'd been supportive then you'd have known about it' Taylor said calmly but forcefully.

'Yeah dude, we thought you were a nice kinda girl but you turned out all stroppy and cow-ish' Chad added.

'TROY! IT'S ABOUT US! I DON'T WANT IT ANYMORE! I DON'T KNOW WHAT I WANT, I JUST, I-I JUST DON'T KNOW!' Gabriella cried, tears running down her face.

Taylor pulled Chad back into the house and Troy just stared at her.

'Troy, please, I just need time to figure out whether I want sweet and roses or aggressive and adventurous'

Troy shook his head. Gabriella walked up to him and placed a hand on his arm, she was about to speak when he flung his arm in the air and she flew backwards down the steps and onto the floor. Troy didn't even turn around, he just walked back inside.

'What did she say?' Zeke asked him.

'Something about not knowing what she wanted and whether she wants sweet and roses or aggressive and powerful'

'Huh?'

'That's what I thought; she doesn't want to marry me anymore.'

'Seriously?' Jason asked.

'Not just that, she doesn't want to be with me.'

This comment was greeted by silence. Troy looked out of the window and saw Gabriella still hadn't moved, he was worried and went to pick her up.

When he got outside, he was just bending down when he heard Ryan say,

'Stay away from her!'

'What?'

'Stay away from her, what have you done to her?'

'Nothing!'

'And that's why she's unable to move is it?' he said sarcastically.

He patted Gabriella's cheek and whispered to her to get up, to move, something. She opened her eyes and they fluttered.

'Gabi?' Troy said softly.

'Come on Ella, come with me' Ryan said.

'No, I think you should stay here, you don't want to move a lot'

'She doesn't want to stay here with you!' Ryan yelled.

'Oh yeah! Why don't you let her decide?' Troy yelled back.

'Ella, come with me, I'll take care of you' Ryan said calmly, helping her to her feet.

'No, come on Gabi, stay here.'

Gabriella turned to look at Troy with such venom in her eyes he stepped backwards.

'Why would I want to stay here with you? You left me out here, I don't want you near me!'

'But Gabi-'

'Fuck off Troy'

Troy was shocked, Gabriella never swore. Never. But here she was, and she was saying it to him. He watched as she put her arms around Ryan's neck and he lited her up, carrying her to his car. A sudden wave of anger came over him. Wasn't he supposed to be mad at her?

'Fine, go with Ryan. I hope you're very happy together' he screamed after them.

He would have been more satisfied if they'd have turned round and shouted back but they ignored him. What hurt him most, although he wouldn't admit it, was when he saw Gabriella tuck her head under Ryan's chin and Ryan kissed the top of her head, rubbing her back.

He walked back inside after a few minutes and nobody spoke. They'd all been watching through the window, and had heard every word being said. They made their hasty goodbyes before leaving. Troy just sat on the couch, staring through the window at where Gabriella had fallen, wondering what had happened.

Zeke had ran all the way to the Evan's only to have Sharpay slap him full across the head and slam the door in his face. He turned away dejectedly, knowing there was nothing he could do that would make her forgive him.

A/N

Oooo, what a sad chapter. No worries to all you Troyella fans (that includes me), it will end up as one, I've decided, but just a little Ryella to mix it up. Only for like two chapters though. Keep reviewing! xxx
