A/N: Sorry about the lack of updates :( But I'm really happy! Wanna know why? Well tough if you don't lmao :P I'm moving back to England in July/August! Woooo:D

The four had been sitting outside talking and laughing together – after the girls finally got Troy and Chad to finish their game. It was a lovely sunny day and Gabriella was snuggled up to Troy – her head on his shoulder. Then Gabriella sat upright.

"Tay, what about going shopping?"

Taylor smiled. "Yeah. We haven't been shopping in a long time."

"Great. I'm gonna phone Shar – no doubt she'll want to come." Gabriella said.

As Gabriella stood up to walk into the house, she smiled at Troy and Chad who were both wondering what she was doing. Until Troy finally got it. He stood up.

"Oh no no no."

Gabriella smiled. "Yeah. Come on, we haven't been out properly – all of us, in ages."

"I wouldn't mind it, but not shopping, Gabs."

"Why not? You can look in the mens' shops, and tell us girls what looks good on us."

Chad shook his head. "Oh..fun." He said, sarcastically.

Gabriella rolled her eyes and turned back to Troy, giving him the puppy dog eyes. She knew he couldn't resist.

At first, Troy carried on shaking his head, but then he agreed. Even after all these years, he still couldn't resist Gabriella's puppy dog eyes.

Gabriella smiled and went into the house to phone Sharpay.

Chad hit Troy on the arm – Taylor watching in amusement.

"What was that for?" Troy asked.

"Why man? Why?"

Troy gave him a confused look.

"Why did you have to agree?" Chad asked.

Troy shrugged, and Chad sighed. "Now we're gonna be spending a whole day with three shopaholics."

"Hey! I'm not a shopaholic!" Taylor told Chad.

Chad raised his eyebrows? "You're not?"

Taylor shook her head. "No, I'm not."

"Whatever you say, Tay." Chad replied.

Just then, Gabriella walked back out with a smile on her face.

"Time for shopping!"

Taylor smiled and walked through the house with Gabriella, and the two guys groaned as they followed the girls out of the front door.

Just as they got to Gabriella's car, Taylor turned round to the guys and said, "Oh stop being such drama kings!"

Troy stopped, but Chad didn't stop all the way to Sharpay's house. And when Sharpay got into the car, he was even worse.

"Now I'm sitting next to the shopaholic of all shopaholics. Great." Chad had said, which went unnoticed by the girls – they were all in deep conversation. Troy heard him though, and had to fight his laugh.

HSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSM

Once they gang turned up at the mall, the girls got out of the car, and it took Gabriella and Taylor to pull Troy and Chad out.

The first stop was a clothes shop that all three absolutely loved. Troy and Chad stood outside as the girls walked in, but then Sharpay walked out to them, dragging them in. She laughed at their faces.

"What's the point of having guys shopping with you if they don't tell you what looks good on you?"

Chad rolled his eyes and gave a death glare to Troy – he hated shopping unless it was for mens' clothes. Troy just gave him a half smile, shrugged, and walked over to where Gabriella was looking.

She was currently looking at some tops, until Sharpay held some boots up, telling the girls to look. Gabriella and Taylor saw them and ran over to where Sharpay was.

"Those boots are amazing! How much are they?" Gabriella asked.

"Erm.." Sharpay replied, quickly looking for the price tag. "$60."

"Oohh! I might have to buy them! Troooyyy!" She called.

Troy walked over, pulling a very bored Chad with him. "Yeah?"

"Do you like these boots?"

"Are you sure you can walk in them?" Troy asked, his eyes on the heels.

"Duh she can walk in them..she's friends with me. Do you think I've taught her nothing these years I've known her?" Sharpay butted in.

Troy couldn't disagree with Sharpay there. She was totally right.

"Umm..okay then." Troy replied. He then turned to Gabriella. "Buy them if you want."

Gabriella smiled. "Yay!" She then carried on looking at the rest of the shoes.

HSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSM

Way too many hours for Troy and Chad later, the gang walked out of the mall – the girls carrying bags and bags of clothes, shoes and accessories. And the guys carrying like one bag each – from a sports shop.

As Troy and Gabriella were putting the bags in the boot of the car, Troy moved closer to Gabriella and whispered, "Honey..Sharpay has rattled your brain. Seriously. I mean, no girl needs this amount of clothes – except Sharpay. That woman can't live for a day without shopping."

Gabriella laughed and once she'd put the last bag in the boot, she shut it. She then kissed Troy on the cheek and walked over to the driver's seat – Troy had to sit in the backseat again, seeing as Taylor had gotten in the front passenger seat first.

Chad was on one side of Sharpay, so Troy had no choice but to sit on the other side of her. Both of the guys had to listen to Sharpay's rambling all the way home.

Make it stop! Troy thought to himself.

A/N: So that's the chapter. Summer holidays are finally here! So I'm gonna update as much as possible before I move to England :)
