"That bitch!"
Gabriella was fuming when Jason revealed who he thought was the person behind Gabriella's public humiliation. She curled her hands into a tight ball as her face slowly got redder. Troy leaned away from Gabriella. She looked like she was going to blow. Taylor rolled her eyes.
"Never upset a pregnant, hormonal woman" she muttered.
"OH MY GOD, I AM GOING TO KILL THAT GODDAMN BI-" Gabriella began to rant furiously, jumping from her seat next to Troy, screaming profanities.
Chad cringed. The meek, sweet-tempered Gabriella had been replaced with a raving lunatic. Well, you can't exactly blame her, he thought. No one was exactly chipper after a public humiliation. He looked pointedly at Taylor, telling her to calm her angry friend. She shrugged. Gabriella wasn't going to stop until every bitter emotion about the whole situation had poured out.
"-first, I get knocked up by some idiot who couldn't even keep it in his pants, or a condom! Then I have to move in with his deranged family, and now I have to deal with some crazy, Troy-loving stalker bitch who wants to ruin my life?! URGH!" Gabriella plopped on the ground, groaning.
Troy looked appropriately offended, before sliding down next to Gabriella, awkwardly patting her head. He dealt with women in bed, not women crying on the floor about how he couldn't put on protection to save his life.
"There, there Gabriella. Um, it's going to be okay?"
That even sounded lame to Jason, who had proclaimed himself as the king of lame jokes. Gabriella's eyes narrowed.
"Why was that a question?" she asked suspiciously.
Troy froze, his eyes widening.
"Er..."
Sharpay rolled her eyes, plopping herself beside her pouting friend.
"Give the poor boy a break. He's a beginner with the ladies" she teased.
Troy stuck out his tongue. Jason laughed, making Sharpay blush. Gabriella huffed.
"Fine, flirt with the idiot while your best friend is having a mid-life crisis. Hmph" she crossed her arms, throwing Sharpay a dirty glare.
Jason flushed a deep red, matching Sharpay's pink face. Taylor shook her head, a smirk playing on her lips.
"Pregnancy so doesn't go with you, Bee. Hormonal bitches have never been your type" she quipped.
"Neither has slut" Gabriella muttered, putting her head in her hands.
Sharpay and Taylor shared a worried look, before staring at Troy. Troy looked confused at their glares.
"What did I do now?" he half-whined.
"More like, what did you do to that girl that made her send the entire school pictures of you and Gabriella and a doctor's certificate?" Taylor retorted.
Troy rubbed the back of his neck.
"Er..."
"Actually, don't answer that" Sharpay cut him off, shaking her head.
Troy rolled her eyes.
"Whatever. It's not like I can remember her" he muttered.
Chad's jaw dropped.
"Dude, how can you not remember her? Smoking hot body, nice big...personality!" Chad faltered and stumbled on his words as he caught Taylor's raised eyebrow.
He flashed her a winning smile. She rolled her eyes. Gabriella groaned.
"Just great. My friends are getting paired off with a bunch of jocks while I'm stuck with a baby in me. So unfair"
"You have me!" Troy pouted.
Gabriella raised an eyebrow. Troy opened his mouth to retort, but thought better than to argue with a pregnant woman. She sighed tiredly. It was all too much for one day, let alone one period. Sharpay propped her chin on her hand, looking at Jason.
"Are you sure it was her? I mean, there's bound to be hundreds of girls that have been heart-broken by Troy. How do know it was her?" she asked.
Jason shrugged.
"She was the one that kicked up the most fuss when Troy broke up with her" he replied.
Taylor nodded. Chad's handsome face broke out in a wicked grin, rubbing his hands together.
"Then let's get Demi Lovato, that bitch"
--
"But I didn't do ittttt" Demi whined for the seven hundredth time as Taylor had her pinned against the art room wall.
It was lunch when Chad and Taylor had cornered Demi. Chad was rather surprised at Taylor's strength. That's kinda hot, he mused as he watched Taylor interrogate the 'suspect' (Jason had gotten a bit excited at the prospect of detective work). Taylor rolled her eyes, inwardly cringing at Demi's high-pitched squeals. She turned to Chad, who looked rather pleased with the girl-on-girl action.
"I don't think she did it" she deadpanned.
Chad snapped out of his trance.
"What? Why not?" he half-whined.
Taylor rolled her eyes.
"She's not exactly the brightest bulb in the box, Chad. She wouldn't have been able to pull it off"
"Hey!" Demi looked offended.
"No offence" Taylor made a face.
Chad sighed, rubbing his face exasperatedly.
"Then what do we do now?"
Taylor shrugged.
"I guess we're back to square one"
"Wait, so you guys are trying to find the person who sent all those pictures of Troy and Gabriella to the school, right?" Demi said slowly.
Taylor and Chad nodded.
"And this person had their heart broken by Troy, right?"
They nodded.
"And this person also had to have access to hospital…stuff, right?"
They nodded. Demi burst out laughing. Taylor raised her eyebrow.
"What's so funny?"
Demi wiped at her waterproof mascara.
"Oh, nothing. It's just your person sounds like Kelsi, coz she's like, in love with Troy and, like, her dad's the hospital chairperson or something" Demi giggled.
Taylor froze. Chad's eyes widened.
"Oh my God…" Taylor whispered.
"We've been after the wrong girl" Chad murmured.
They looked at each other, understanding dawning in their eyes.
"THAT BITCH!"
--
Troy leant against the wall, the breeze whipping his dark blonde, mussed hair. He looked like the epitome of cool. Kelsi strutted past, careful to make sure nothing was out of place. She had to let him know that dumping her was the worst thing he could've ever done. Kelsi put on an expression of innocence, flouncing past Troy. She saw him raise in eyebrow. In interest, of course, she smugly thought. All she had to do was wait…
"Kelsi! Can I talk to you?"
A conceited grin flitted across her heavily made-up face. She always knew Troy would come crawling back. She turned to smile sweetly at Troy.
"Yes, Troy?"
