I haven't seen Ryan all day. I think he's feeling guilty about betraying his sister. Oh man, what if he wants to dump me? I wouldn't know what to do. I like Ryan too much for anything to tear us apart.

I walked out of my last period class and everyone's eyes were on me. And I mean everyone's.

"I can't believe it!"

"Troy Bolton and Ryan Evans?!"

"The Basketball star and the Drama King"

"Who would've known?"

"Two of the cutest guys in school…together?!"

"Aww! That's cute!

"I find it kind of hot!"

That is what I heard as I walked down the hallway. I wasn't one bit embarrassed either. I knew that it would happen eventually. I just wasn't expecting today. But there was only one person who could've gotten the news spread around the school so fast.

Sharpay's just pissed that I'm with her brother and not with her. I have to find Ryan. I turned around to walk the other way and when someone ran into me.

"Ryan, just who I was looking for!" I sigh.

"Troy, Sharpay told everyone! I tried to stop her but she wouldn't listen to me. She's really pissed Troy and I mean pissed!" He said quickly and I smiled. I grabbed him by his shoulders so he could look right at me.

"It's going to be alright. We'll get through this. If you're worried that I'm upset, then you don't have to. I told you, I could never hide you too long. So what your sister did was a good thing."

"Really?" He questioned. He was really cute when he was unsure of things.

"Really." I leaned in and kissed him, not caring who saw. I wanted everyone to know that Ryan was mines.

"Aww!" I heard a group of swooning girls chorused. Who would've known that two gay guys could be so adorable to girls?

"TROY BOLTON?!" A voice screeched and it wasn't Sharpay's. I slowly broke away from Ryan and looked at the owner of the voice and rolled my eyes.

"So it is true? I thought that what Sharpay told me was a load of crap…but sight doesn't lie. Hmmm…I'm shocked that you of all people are gay. Ryan did this to you, didn't he?" She glared. Boy was she mad.

Ryan was about to jump in and say something but I pushed back lightly. "Ryan didn't do anything to me, Gabriella. I chose to like him for your information."

"Oh, really?" She started, "You're going to be really sorry that you chose to love him. You're soon going to wish that you were with me."

She was really starting to piss me off! What is wrong with her and Sharpay.

"No, I won't because I love Ryan!" I shouted and that's when I first realized that people weren't minding their own business. I looked over at Ryan, who was bloody red. I turned my attention back to Gabriella who was wide eyed and furious.

"You are definitely going to regret that, Troy!" She huffed and stomped away. I sighed in relief that it was over…for now. I shook my head looked at Ryan. He was still a little red but he had a blank expression on his face.

"Look, Ryan. I know that I shouldn't have said that. I was just talking out of my ass because Gabriella was just being so-" I couldn't finish because Ryan's lips had covered mine. I smiled into the kissed and pulled him closer. I was fully aware that were still in the hallway with a bunch of nosy people, but I didn't care. After a few moments he finally pulled away and smiled at me. I know I've said it a billion times already, but I love his smile.

He laughed. "I'm glad that you said, Troy. Even though it's a bit fast."

"So you're not mad?"

"No, I'm not mad." He said.

I sighed. "Good! You know that you don't have to say it back. I know that you're not at the same level as I am."

"I know, but I think I could love you." He whispered in my ear and I shivered. He kissed me on my cheek before saying, "I'll see you at your house later. I have to deal with Sharpay." He gave a little wave and walked away.

I was walking down the street to my house when some called my name. I turned around to see that it was Chad. He stopped so that he could catch up to me, when he did, I resumed my regular pace with him following.

"Hey man, I heard what happened." He said.

I looked at him in shock. "And how is that? It only happened like fifteen minutes ago."

"Dude, you know how fast news travels in East High." He stated and I laughed. Of course. I mean it was a matter of periods before the people starting whispering. "So are you alright? Do I have to kick any ass?"

"Yeah, I'm fine. No ass kicking today. I'm completely alright with people knowing. Some girls even find it cute." I grinned.

"Ha! They would. Do you want to come and hang out with the guys and shoot some hoops? They're ok with it, I checked."

"Damn, you accomplished a lot in fifteen minutes."

"Just looking out for my best bud." He smiled.

"I'm sorry, Chad. I have to pass. Ryan's meeting me later at my house." I said.

"Oh!" He said raising his eyebrows suggestively. "I'll leave you to that. See you tomorrow." He said crossing the street. "Be safe!" He shouted back to me.

I laughed and continued to my house.

Author's Note: Ok, so finally I've produced a new chapter. It wouldn't have been up if it wasn't for jenpixie13. I just happened to look back at my reviews and came across hers. It's an anonymous one, so I can't get in touch with her. Hopefully she's reading this. Her review mentioned the whole school finding out and I came up with this chapter. So tell me what you think. Please review!
