A/N: So sorry for not updating when I should – I went to the beach earlier than expected, and then me and my friend missed the last bus home, because we had to show her friends where the train station is. Lmao. Never getting the bus to Alicante again aha. And if you read the author's note, our wireless internet stopped working..but now IT'S BACK! Yayaa..my dad fixed it finally, so I'm posting this update. This will probably be my last update now until I get a laptop, because I'm moving back to England this week sometime.

Taylor was laying on her bed, reading a book and humming some kind of tune. She didn't even realise her door open.

"Nice erm..humming."

Taylor's eyes widened and she sat upright, ending up meeting her gaze with Chad's.

"What are you doing here?" She asked.

"Your mum let me in."

"I figured that. But what are you doing here Chad?"

"I erm..I wanted to apologise properly." Chad replied.

Taylor stood up, and walked over to her shelves, and started rearranging her ornaments – anything to try and ignore Chad.

"Taylor, can you listen to me? Please?"

Taylor sighed and stood in front of Chad. "Alright."

"Okay. Well, I'm really sorry. What I said, I didn't mean. I mean, I did mean it, but I didn't mean that." He saw Taylor's confused face, and realised he was rambling. "What I'm trying to say is that you took it the way I didn't mean you to take it. I didn't know it was you that day, but if I'd have known it was you, I would have whistled anyway." Taylor looked right at him, still confused as to what Chad was getting at.

"And well..What I'm trying to say, is erm..I like you." Chad finished.

Taylor's eyes widened again. She didn't trust herself to speak – she didn't even believe that he'd actually said that to her. Chad Danforth. Like her. Taylor McKessie. No. It was some kind of sick joke he was playing, or it was her imagination. But something stopped herself thinking.

Chad had placed his lips on hers – Taylor didn't have a clue what to do. She was shocked, but liked the feeling, and even when they broke apart, she still didn't know what to say. Neither did Chad.

"Umm.." Was all that came out of Taylor's mouth.

Chad stood there, confused what to do next. As Taylor didn't say anything, he figured she didn't like him back, and opened her bedroom door, and started to walk down the hall way.

"I like you too." Taylor said.

Chad turned around and walked towards Taylor. "You..you do?"

Taylor nodded. "So erm..what do we do now?"

Chad shrugged. "I don't know. I've never told a girl I like her in her own house. I've been in girls houses for other reasons."

Chad then noticed Taylor looking at him coldly. "Oh erm..not those reasons. Gosh, no!" He said, trying to act innocent which definitely wasn't working since he'd obviously just said it was for those reasons.

"Wanna go for a walk?" Chad suggested, as Taylor agreed. She put her book back on her bedside table, got some shoes on and as they walked down the stairs to the front door, Taylor shouted to her mum that she was going out and shut the front door after them.

"So, why do you like me?" Taylor asked after a few minutes of walking in silence.

"What do you mean?" Chad asked.

"Why do you like me? What makes me different from other girls you've dated?"

"I don't know. You're just..different. Most of the girls I've dated have been..you know..all the same – same personalities, looks and stuff. You're not as high maintenance as they were. I like you because you're different."

Taylor smiled, and felt butterflies when he took her hand in his. She then pulled him behind a bush.

"What the.."

"Shh.." Taylor replied, motioning towards Gabriella, walking round the corner.

"Oh no. I think she's going round my house." Taylor said, standing up when she knew Gabriella wouldn't see her. "Look Chad I'm gonna have to go. I'll probably see you tomorrow at the bus stop."

Chad sighed, but laughed at her last comment. "Yeah, a bus stop is the most romantic place."

Taylor laughed. Chad pecked her lips, and watched his new girlfriend walk round the corner, and heard her shout her best friend's name. A few minutes later, when he figured Gabriella and Taylor would be near Taylor's house, he started to walk towards their street.

How was he going to be able to hide the fact that he had a new girlfriend – especially a girlfriend on the scholastic decathalon team, from their rival school to his teammates – let alone his best friend, Troy Bolton. Boy was this going to be hard.

A/N: So that's the chapter. The Chaylor's on. Wooo. Aha. That's the last update now until I get a laptop :( Don't abandon me..pleaseeeee :)
