A/N: Here's the next chapter :) I might not update this one of The Hats Go Up as often as Meeting You Again, because I really want to finish that fic soon. But once I've finished that one, I'll probably start Opposites Attract, and I'll update The Hats Go Up and this one as much as possible :)

It was the next day, and Taylor and Chad had slept round. It was weird. The four hadn't had a sleepover since East High. But Chad and Troy wanted to keep on shooting hoops for hours, and Gabriella wanted Taylor to talk to, as she didn't want to be stuck with the guys. It was great that the four were still very close friends.

Yeah, they were all still friends with the rest of the East High gang, but not as close as these were. Sharpay and Ryan had moved out, and were living seperately. Sharpay was living with Zeke, while Ryan was living in his own flat, near to where he was studying at a performing arts school, in NYU. He didn't have much time to visit Albequerque, as he was at the performing arts school most days a week, and he worked most nights to pay for it.

Sharpay still acted and sang, but not as much as Ryan. Sure, she still loved it, but she loved Zeke more now, and Zeke had bought a restuarant, which he was the chef, and Sharpay helped him out. She occasionally went to the local theatre, and did shows usually once a week. Jason and Kelsi were still together, and Kelsi had carried on writing songs and musicals, usually the ones in which Sharpay acted. Jason had become a bodyguard, which meant that he was travelling quite a lot.

So yeah, Troy, Gabriella, Chad and Taylor were the closest of friends, just as they were in East High. They all still talked to the others over the phone occasionally, and Sharpay, Zeke and Kelsi came over to Gabriella's and Troy's every once in a while, which was good. But it stil wasn't like high school. They needed Ryan and Jason. They needed the whole gang.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Gabriella walked down the stairs, and into the living room. She rolled her eyes when she saw Troy and Chad sprawled on both of the sofas. Exactly like high school. The TV had been left on, which she sighed at, and tiptoed to turn it off. Walking back out, and into the kitchen to boil the kettle, she heard footsteps coming down the stairs. Gabriela smiled when Taylor entered the kitchen.

"Hey." Gabriella said.

"Hey." Taylor said, smiling and yawning. "Them two are lazy, eh?"

Gabriella smiled. "Yeah. Well that's Troy and Chad for us. They'll never change."

The two girls giggled, and walked out into the garden with hot drinks.

After some time of talking, they heard a loud racket coming from the kitchen. They rolled their eyes at eachother when they could hear properly.

"Get'cha head in the game, Troy!" Shouted Chad.

The girls could hear Troy groaning as they both walked out into the garden, fully dressed.

"Troy! Get'cha head in th game!" Chad said, picking up a basketball off the ground and throwing it to his best friend, who caught it just in time.

"Yeah Troy. Get'cha head in the game!" Taylor mimicked, causing Gabriella to laugh. Chad just looked at her and rolled his eyes, smiling.

Gabriella noticed Chad's face, and smiled. She then noticed how Taylor had been the one to mimick Chad. She hadn't done that since East High. It was amazing how Tayor's feelings for Chad could go so quickly, and yet they could return just after any random day. She thought it was cute, though.

As the guys walked over to the basketball court, Gabriella noticed Taylor following Chad's ever step. She laughed, and Taylor turned around.

"What?"

"You." Gabriella said, smiling.

"Me??"

"You and Chad. It's so obvious." Gabriella said.

Taylor rolled her eyes.

"See. You aren't even denying it. It's true!"

"No, it's not." Taylor said, but then noticed Gabriella's glare. She couldn't lie when Gabriella was doing that face. Taylor sighed. "Alright, alright."

Gabriella squealed and clapped her hands.

"God! You seem like Sharpay!" Taylor said. With that, the girls both started laughing.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Taylor and Chad had gone home, and Troy and Gabriella were left alone. Troy was still shooting hoops, whereas Gabriella was sitting down still.Troy noticed her deep in thought, and walked up to her.

"What ya thinking about?" He asked, sitting next to her.

"Chad and Taylor."

"Ah..What about them?"

"Taylor likes Chad. Chad likes Taylor. It's too obvious, yet they seem so oblivious."

Troy nodded. "I see. Well Chad hasn't told me anything."

"Well ask him then. I need to know." Gabriella said.

Troy rolled his eyes. "Ya know, you're just like Sharpay. Matchmaking."
