A/N: Here's the next chapter. Although I'm not sure how good it will be, as it's half past midnight lmfao. But I'll probably update again tomorrow sometime when I update my other two fics aswell.

Taylor was sitting in class – next to Gabriella as usual, and for once, she wasn't listening to a word of what the teacher was saying – not that the teacher noticed. But Gabriella did. She could see Taylor just gazing into space. Usually Taylor never did that – and when Gabriella looked at her paper, she noticed that Taylor had only wrote the date, and one sentence. What was up with her?

"Taylor?" Gabriella whispered, waving her hand in front of her best friend's face.

Taylor jolted up, and started to write down the next sentence. Gabriella looked at her confused, but shrugged it off and carried on writing on her paper. But when she turned back around to Taylor, she saw her gazing into space, and could see her lips moving slightly – although Gabriella couldn't hear anything.

"Why did he say that?" Taylor murmured to herself. "He was acting all nice, and then he went and said that. Why? Does he even care about people's feelings? I guess not."

Just then, the bell rang, and it was time for lunch. As usual, the girls put their bags and books in their locker and walked to the cafeteria.

As soon as they both got their food, Taylor and Gabriella sat down at their usual table.

"Are you OK, Tay?" Gabriella asked.

"Yeah, I'm fine. Why?" Taylor replied.

"It's just that..you've been zoning out a lot today."

"Oh. I'm just tired." Taylor said quickly.

Gabriella didn't believe her, but decided to go along with it. "OK."

"Yo, Chad!" Troy called, as he neared his best friend's locker.

Chad turned around and smiled. "Yeah man?"

"Come on, we've got an extra basketball lesson now. Remember?"

"Oh yeah." Chad replied, shutting his locker.

They both walked to the gym in silence, which was odd – Troy and Chad were hardly ever silent. They were always getting told off and getting detention for talking in class and back chatting

the teachers..but today was different.

They reached the gym and walked through the doors to the changing rooms. Once they'd changed, they both walked out of the changing rooms and into the gym, the rest of the team following behind.

After having to listen to a little lecture from Coach Bolton, they were split into two teams, and started the practice game.

"Chad!" Troy called out, as he passed the ball to him.

Chad caught it, but just barely. He then started to dribble, but got it taken off of him. Troy was looking at him, confused. Chad never acted like this. Chad noticed Troy's face, but ignored it and carried on playing the game.

After the game, Troy wasted no time on talking to Chad about his play today.

"What was up with you today man?" He asked,

Chad shook his head. "Nothing."

"I know some thing's up. What is it?"

Chad shook his head again and walked faster, over to the cafeteria.

Troy couldn't help but wonder what was going on with his friend. But he was going to find out.

A/N: So that's the chapter. Like I said, I'll probably update tomorrow sometime – or late..seeing as it's now 1am lol. So yeah..expect an update tomorrow.
