Chapter 6

Troy bobbed his head along to the music, as his eyes scanned over the crowded room of teenagers. As he took a sip of his coke, he realized that almost every teenager in the city was in there; except for a few select people who would rather spend their time studying like Martha Winston, or Jack Hunter. The so called, "Teen Club" was a hit around their town…every Saturday night the kids gathered together to have a whole bunch of fun.

"Dude…is it just me or is the music getting LOUDER?" Chad screamed basically at the top of his lungs, and everyone felt like plugging their ears. Sometimes he could be louder than the music.

"DUDE…I think it's just YOU" Troy yelled back in a mockingly tone, and Chad just gave him a stony glare. The whole group at the table laughed, and Troy took another drink of his pop.

He sighed, realizing this is what he practically did every Saturday night. He never usually got up and danced; he wasn't much of a dancer. But he suddenly felt apprehensive when the one person he was hoping would show up…hadn't yet.

There was a sudden hoot of cat calls and whistles…and almost every boy in the room lined up towards the door to get a closer look at what was going on. Troy furrowed his eyebrow as he looked to his friends; they all shrugged their shoulders, not knowing what was going on.

"Hey, didn't you say Gabriella is supposed to come tonight, Troy?" Taylor asked, and he just shrugged in response.

"She said she might come…but I'm not so sure if she is anymore…" Troy replied, letting out a hint of sadness in his voice. Sharpay sat there frowning, feeling bad for her friend, but when she looked back towards the crowd again her eyes lit up brilliantly.

"I think I object to that…" Sharpay said quickly, nodding her head towards the crowd. Troy had already brought up his coke back to his lips to take a drink, when he had turned around to see what she was nodding at.

There stood Gabriella, wearing a mini skirt, and a low cut top, with her hair down in loose curls. Troy was for sure, that he could have just spit out his drink right then and there. It wasn't until Sharpay had handed him a napkin that he realized he actually had.

Gabriella was making her way over to their table; Troy turned around quickly to wipe off his face, and when he turned back around Gabriella was smiling down at the group.

"Hey guys!" She waved cheerfully, and they all responded happily. Gabriella looked at Troy, who still seemed to be troubled with getting a word out.

Chad patted his best friend on the back forcefully, and he finally spit it out. "Hey G-Gabriella" He stuttered, and everyone managed to hold in their laughter and snickers as he felt himself turn crimson colored.

"Hey Troy…" She replied wearily, slightly pushing him over in the booth so she could sit next to him. They all seemed to sit in an awkward silence as the music blared…but no one seemed to know what to say.

The next song came on as quick as the last one came off, it was "Let's Dance" by Vanessa Hudgens. Gabriella gasped, "I love this song! Does anybody want to go dance?"

Everyone glanced over to Troy, who just looked at them all with a pleading glance. No He tried to mouth furiously, but that didn't stop Zeke from smirking. "Hey Gabriella-I think Troy here wants to dance some…"

"Oh…yay!" Gabriella squealed, grabbing onto Troy's hand and leading him out of the booth, and onto the dance floor. Troy kept his head turned to the group and mouthed one last time, I hate you all.

Their only response was to crack up and go around, high-fiving each other.

Both Troy and Gabriella soon found themselves in the middle of everyone, and they seemed to be smashed together. For awhile during the song, Gabriella seemed to be dancing on her own, while Troy just rubbed the back of his neck, looking around the room awkwardly.

Gabriella laughed, and wrapped her arms around his neck quickly. He looked at her in shock; she just smirked in response. "Do you even know how to dance, Troy?" She chuckled, and he felt himself being embarrassed all over again.

"Uh yeah I just…" He tried to explain, but he knew she was giving him the eye. He finally sighed, "Uh no…"

She smiled and glanced at him again; they were both pressed to each other; there was basically not enough oxygen in the room for all of them to breathe. "Come on…" She started, taking his arms, and wrapping them around her waist. "Now just move to my rhythm…okay?" She told him, and he nodded, still unsure.

She started to move around and dance a little, and Troy felt his breath hitch tightly into his throat. It took him a moment, but then he suddenly started to get more comfortable, and moved along with her. People were yelling and dancing to the rhythms, and Troy knew he wasn't the only one out there.

Soon enough they started dancing more heatedly…almost to the point where they were grinding…Gabriella was feeling butterflies in her stomach as she realized that Troy's torso was pressed up against hers. His body always felt so warm, and she felt herself start to sweat a bit.

Troy knew his heart was speeding up as he saw Gabriella move swiftly back around to face him…her arms had re-wrapped around his neck, his around her waist. Barely able to move through the crowd, they felt themselves stumbling away from all of the noise, and backing up, not realizing what they were doing.

Troy felt like his head was spinning…he most certainly knew he had only one coke. And that was only pop. They kept backing up until Gabriella felt herself ram into a wall, and it was only then that they both realized how fast they were breathing.

Their breaths almost came out in gasps…Troy reached his right hand to touch the wall right beside Gabriella's face, as he had her pinned to the wall. As they controlled their breaths, Gabriella self-consciously grabbed a hold of Troy's shirt, and held on tight with her fists.

"Wow…is that really what you're in for when you dance here?" Gabriella said in shock moments later…after they had somewhat regained control.

Troy felt himself laughing; his face still seemed to only be inches away from hers. "I really had no clue…I'm not an experienced dancer, remember?" He smirked, and Gabriella just looked at him in shock, as she regained her memory.

"They way you were dancing out there? You sure didn't look like someone that was inexperienced…" Gabriella retorted, and Troy grinned down at her…he felt his nose slowly touch hers.

"Well…I guess next time won't be as hard then…" He whispered almost inaudibly…Gabriella felt her eyelids grow heavy, and droop to a close…

Troy, not being able to stand it any longer, knew what was happening. He crashed his lips on hers, and filled their kiss with as much passion as he could muster. Gabriella responded almost immediately, and he felt his hand rewrap around her waist again. He pressed her tightly against him, and she felt her mouth open wider, as his tongue slipped in.

They kept on kissing and kissing, when Troy finally tore his lips apart from hers. They were even more out of breath this time than they were coming off the dance floor…and Troy felt his forehead drop to rest his head against hers. "Damn..." He cursed silently, keeping his eyes closed.

Gabriella felt blurred…the music seemed to be louder, Troy's words seemed to drum against her ears…and she was so out of breath, she couldn't hear herself think. "I think I should…I should go now…" She said quickly, and made a move to exit.

Troy grabbed a hold of her hand and pulled her back around. She almost didn't realize it, but before she knew it, she found herself pressed in a hug, his arms wrapped around her tightly. She rested her chin on his shoulder, and closed her eyes. Gabriella felt him slowly rock back and forth a little, and she smiled.

They finally found composure with their breathing again, and that's when Gabriella decided to pull apart. She felt a little emptiness in her stomach when she had pulled apart, and that just made her grin more. "Goodnight Troy" Gabriella whispered to him, kissing his cheek, before making her way out the door.

Troy watched her go, not knowing that the gang had definitely seen quite a show that night.

Well…what did you guys think? I know I somehow managed to have Troy and Gabriella together…without them actually getting together as a couple. I may just save that for later…haha. But anyways, I did think this was a little too intense, to be honest.

But I don't know…you tell me, guys!
