Chapter 11: It Takes Two

Gabriella's POV

"Hey everyone! My name is Troy Bolton!" he said into the microphone. "First off I'd like to say thank you to everyone for supporting us at our basketball games with our wins against the South High Bears and the Clear Lake Warriors!" Everyone in the room cheered. "Well tonight I have a special treat for everyone!" What is he talking about? I looked over at Taylor and Sharpay and they were smirking. "First I'd like Gabriella Montez to come up here on stage with me…" Oh hell no!

Sharpay and Taylor grabbed each one of my arms and started dragging me up to the stage. "Woah guys no!" Too late we were standing in front of the small platform that was the stage. Troy and I locked eyes. Taylor and Sharpay let go of me. Troy grabbed on to one of my hands and tugged me on stage.

"Go Kels," he said without breaking eye contact with me. Kelsi started to play a tune on the piano I didn't recognize and then Troy started to sing.

They say it's a man's world

Well, that cannot be denied

But what good's a man's world

without a women by his side

And so i will wait

Until that moment you decide

I stared deep into his eyes and started to get teary. He then saw I was getting teary so he let go of my hand and wiped my eyes with his thumb. Then he grabbed my hand again.

That i'm your man

And you're my girl

That i'm the sea

And you're the pearl

It takes two, baby,

It takes two

A king ain't a king

Without the power behind the throne

A prince is a pauper. Babe,

Without a chick to call his own

So please, darling, choose me

I don't wanna rule alone

Tell me,

I'm your king

And you're my queen

That no one else

Can come between

It takes two, baby,

It takes two

Don't you know

Lancelot had Guinevere

Mrs. Claus has old St. Nick

Romeo had Juliet

And Liz, well, she has her Dick

I looked deep into his eyes and saw how much pain and suffering he had. I saw how truly sorry he was.

They say it takes two to tango

Well, that tango's child's play

So take me to the dance floor

And we'll twist the night away

Just like Frankie Avalon

Had his favorite Mouseketeer

I dream of a lover, babe,

To say the things I long to hear

So come closer baby,

Oh and whisper in my ear

That you're my girl

And i'm your boy

That you're my pride

And i'm your joy

That i'm the sand

And you're the tide

I'll be the groom

If you'll be my bride

It takes two, baby,

It takes two

It takes two baby

It takes two...

He finished the song. He didn't break eye contact with me once through out the whole song. "Brie will you forgive me?" He asked into the microphone.

"Yes," I whispered only loud enough for him to here. The biggest smile I have ever seen appeared on his face. I threw my arms around his neck and buried my face in his chest and his arms went around my waist. He then picked me up and spun me around. I heard the crowd at the party then start to cheer. He put me back down on my feet and we locked eyes again. He leaned in and then I met his lips with my own.

It was a very deep kiss, but I pulled away before it got any deeper because I heard the crowd wolf whistling and cheering. I looked out into the crowd watching us and my cheeks turned a bright red with embarrassment. "Thanks Guys," Troy spoke into the microphone then placed it back on the stand. He grabbed my hand and he pulled me off stage. We walked towards the front door and then went outside and stood on Sharpay's front lawn.

I looked up into Troy's eyes and smiled, "Troy that was really sweet."

"Thanks," Troy chuckled. "I wasn't sure if you were ever going to forgive me." He smiled and then I started to laugh. He looked at me perplexed. "What's so funny?"

"Nothing," I replied still laughing.

"No tell me."

I looked in his eyes and saw curiosity. "Well I heard you in the auditorium earlier today and I was going to go in there and tell you I forgive you right there, but then you said something like 'I need this to work tonight,' so I decided to wait." I said laughing again.

His mouth dropped open, "So I could've just saved that embarrassing moment?" he asked.

"Hey! You didn't embarrass yourself! It was really good."

He smiled sheepishly. "Thanks."

He sat down on the lawn and then I sat down in-between his legs. He wrapped his arms around my waist and I leaned back against him. I looked down at our hands and I saw Troy twisting his class ring around his right ring finger. I turned a little so I could look at him. I saw he looked nervous. "Troy are you okay?" I asked.

"Yeah…well I was just wondering." He said avoiding my gaze.

"Yeah?" I asked.

He took his class ring off his finger and slid it onto my right ring finger. "Will you be my girlfriend?" he looked down into my eyes and his beautiful bright blue eyes were shining with hopefulness.

"Of course!" I hugged him and he put his face in my hair and let out a deep sigh. I pulled back a little and looked back into his eyes. "A little nervous?" I asked jokingly.

"Just a little," he joked and then he leaned in and our lips met. He slid one of his arms up my back and then it stopped at the back of my neck. I moved one of my hands up to his sandy brown hair. His tongue licked my top lip and I opened my mouth in response. Our tongues danced together in our mouths.

"Eww guys!" We pulled away and looked up to see Sharpay standing by us.

"Ugh!" Troy groaned and collapsed on the ground and I just laughed.

"Aww is lil Troysie Woysie mad?" Sharpay asked in a baby voice. Troy and I stood up. I brushed my clothes to make them look right.

"Shar you just ruined the moment!" Again if looks could kill, Sharpay would be 6 feet under because Troy was not happy and I just continued laughing.

"Aww go cry about it Bolton!" Sharpay snapped.

I just laughed again, "Shar where is Tay and Kels?" I asked.

She looked away from Troy and over towards me, "Out back talking to Chad Danforth," Sharpay said and shrugged.

"Uhh why?" I asked.

"I don't know. He came over to the table we were sitting at and then I left to find you." She said.

"Okay well I'm going to go find out, you two have fun bickering." I said and then I walked into the house. I walked through the crowd and then into the kitchen. I saw a bunch of guys doing beer pong. I opened the glass sliding door that led to the back yard. I saw a stereo and more people dancing in the back. I then saw Taylor, Kelsi, and Chad sitting at a table. I walked over to it and sat down in one of the chairs. "Finally I found you guys." I said.

"Hey Gabs," Taylor said.

"Ok Gabriella," Chad said and I looked over to him. "I am so sorry for everything I've done to you…I can't find anyway to explain my behavior except for the fact that I have been a huge jerk. I really am truly sorry. At the talent show when you sang that song I just started to feel so horrible and it made me realize what an ass I have been. I know it may take a while for you forgive me, but someday when you actually do I would like to be friends and I mean I can unde-" I looked at Chad wide eyed and then interrupted him.

"Chad it is ok…I forgive you, you can stop rambling now." I laughed and Chad looked at me in disbelief.

"Wait that easy?" He asked shocked. "I thought you like hated me?"

"Chad I don't hate anyone…" I started and then Taylor interrupted me.

"…Even though some people have been horrible to her." I smiled over at Taylor.

"Like me…" I looked over at Chad and saw his head down. "I am so sorry Gabriella."

I looked at Chad and when I saw him I didn't see the jerk he used to be. I saw a lost guy who is very confused and looks like a long lost puppy. "Seriously Chad I forgive you." I stood up and walked over to him. I wrapped my arms around him and he seemed shocked at first but then hugged back. "But call me Gabi." I smiled at him and he returned the gesture.

"Ok…." He kept on smiling and then his face turned serious. "If anybody in this school hurts you like I did then come to me and I will personally kick their ass." He said with a straight face.

I laughed. "Thanks Chad and will do." I hugged him again.

We broke apart and I walked back over to my chair and sat down. Then Taylor asked me, "Where's Shar?"

I shrugged and then said, "Out front with Troy, arguing."

"What is taking them so long!" Taylor exclaimed and then as if on cue Troy and Sharpay showed up arguing.

"No I am spending tomorrow with Brie!" Troy argued.

"Too bad basketball boy we already had plans!" Sharpay said with a smirk.

Troy turned to me with his puppy dog eyes. "Brie…" He whined stretching out my name. I laughed.

"Ok how about this guys. Tomorrow we all spend the day together." I turned to Troy. "You and your friends," Then I turned to Sharpay. "And you, Kels, Tay, and me." I suggested.

"I like that idea!" Chad chimed in.

"Ok so there is our plan!" I smiled in satisfaction.

"Ok Brie." Troy smiled and winked at me before he ran off.

I turned back around to Chad. "So who exactly is Troy asking?"

He shrugged and then scanned over the yard. "Most likely Zeke Baylor and Jason Cross."

"Oh," I said and then started to scan the backyard to see if I knew anyone. I looked around and basically saw a bunch of jocks and people associated with the jocks. Wait I'm associated with the jocks now! I am not their target anymore! YES!

Troy came running back over to where we were seated out of breath. "Zeke and Jason are in." Troy said while taking big deep breaths. He then stood straight up and looked around the table curiously.

I raised one eyebrow, "What's wrong Troy?" I asked.

He snapped out of his trance and looked towards me. Then a slow smirk crossed his face. "Nothing…" He walked over to where I was sitting. He put one of his arms underneath my knees and then one arm around my back. He lifted me out of my seat and set me on the ground. He then sat down in my seat as swiftly as he could.

"HEY!!" I exclaimed.

He shrugged and smirked. "All the seats were taken."

"So you take mine?"

He laughed. "Yep!" I stuck out my tongue at him. "Wow that was scary please don't do that again!" He smirked at me again and then I stuck out my lower lip in a fake pout. He smiled at me and then opened his arms wide. "Come here babe and sit on my lap." I sat down on his lap and then snuggled up into his chest.

"Thank you." I said as he wrapped his arms around me and laid his head on the top of mine.
