A/N: I haven't updated in over a month. I'm so sorry! But now that I've finished Meeting You Again, I'm gonna try and update this fic and my other two fics more. This udate might not be very long, because I'm tired and I have a throbbing headache :( But as tomorrow is a Friday. I'll give you another update, and hopefully an update on The Hats Have Gone Up and It's Never easy..Just incase any of you read those :) Ahh I have the Jonas Brothers - Poor Unfortunate Souls in my head. I only started listening to them on like..Tuesday, and I'm in love with them now! Anyways..Back to the chapter...

Gabriella and Taylor had been sitting down in silence for about 10 minutes - the longest they'd ever been silent together for. Gabriella could hear Taylor's loud sighs, and they were really getting on her nerves. She knew why Taylor was sighing so much - she wanted Gabriella to say something and be sympathetic towards her about Chad. But Gabriella couldn't. She kept on replaying that little episode over and over in her head, and thought it was so hilarious - she was meant to be sticking up for Taylor, since they both couldn't stand Chad..or troy for that matter. But at the moment, that was just impossible.

Eventually, after a mere 5 more minutes, Gabriella had enough of Taylor's sighing, and slid closer to her, tapping Taylor on the back - tryign to act as sympathetic as possible.

"Tay, it's OK. He's a jerk."

Taylor finally stopped her sighing, and calmed down.

"I know, Gabs. Ugh!"

It was now Gabriella's turn to sigh. She knew what was coming next - the Taylor speaking essay. She braced herself, and started to listen.

"I mean..like first, he has to live right near me - then he has to go to the school next to ours, and..."

5 minutes later - which to Gabriella seemed like 2 hours..

"...yeah, Gabs - I mean you don't know how I feel. He's so annoying! Ugh! And he thinks he's clever! Did you hear us? He thought that just because we're both 17, that we're the same age! Well Mr Lunkhead Basketball Guy! You're wrong love! Gabs, do you get what I'm saying?"

Taylor now stopped and turned to Gabriella who was gazing into space.

"What? Oh yeah, I totally understand you, Tay." But the truth was, Gabriella had hardly been listening - everytime Taylor had asked her a question, Gabriella had just replied with, "yeah's" and "you're right". But Taylor hadn't noticed - she'd been so wrapped up in letting all of her anger out. Now she was fine and bubbly again. Taylor stood up, smiling.

"Lets go out."

"What? Where?" Gabriella asked.

"Oh, I don't know..the park. I need some fresh air. And I like the ice-cream stall there."

Gabriella laughed at Taylor, but stood up and followed her best friend out of the door.

When they'd shut the door behind them, Taylor quickly glanced down at Chad's house. He was nowhere in sight. Gabriella noticed Taylor look over there, but ignored it. If she asked a question, Taylor would start on one again. And Gabriella didn't want to hear it - again.

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

The girls got to the park and noticed that it was quite full - with little kids and their parents. As they both looked around for a bench to sit at, they spotted one and quickly walked over to it before anyone else could claim it.

Gabriella noticed Taylor looking around, and she thought she was looking to see if Chad was there. Until..

"Gabs! Look. The ice-cream stall's over there! Come on!"

Gabriella sighed and put her head in her hands. But she had no choice but to get up - Taylor pulled her hands from her face and yanked Gabriella out of the seat. As Gabriella looked behind them, she noticed a family grab the bench.

"Well there goes our comfy eating spot." Gabriella muttered, but loud enough for Taylor to hear.

Taylor looked at Gabriella to ask what she meant, but then saw the family. "Ugh! Ah well. We'll have to sit on the grass. Look. There's a nice spot over there!" Taylor pointed.

They carried on walking to the ice-cream stall, and then walked over to that 'nice spot' that Taylor had seen. Gabriella was confused. It seemed like the rest of the grass - full of daisies and green grass. But she shrugged it off. They finished eating their ice-creams, and then out of boredom, Taylor started making a daisy chain. Gabriella raised her eyebrow.

"Tay, don't you do that when you're like..8?"

"I'm bored so I'm making one." Taylor shrugged.

Gabriella laughed and then noticed a group of guys walking over to the basketball court. She looked at Taylor who hadn't lifted her head - she was busy trying to find the perfect daisy for the next part of the chain.

"There you are." Taylor said, lifting her head just as the group of guys walked into the court.

Gabriella raised her eyebrows again - now Taylor was talking to the daisies? But she was glad that her friend hadn't noticed the guys...

A/N: So that's the chapter. As I said, I'll update again tomorrow :)
