Hye Guys! I know this has been a while but I just went through the first day of exams. Two more to go! But for now, here's the first chapter for HSM meets LB!!

P.S.- This is different than last time because I changed the theme song. It's the theme song to the Mary Kate and Ashley show, So Little Time. So PM me if you like this better than the original theme song or not. Thanks!! Also, Happy New Year!

Gabriella's House

"So I was thinking that we should go to the mall today and get what we are gonna wear to the after-party tomorrow. What do you think?" Gabriella said as she came out of her closet.

Taylor was typing on her laptop, not looking up at her. "Sure, that's cool with me," she said.

Gabriella sighed and walked behind Taylor, "What are you doing on here?"

"Talking to Chad," Taylor blushed.

"Oh my God, Taylor. Again? That's the third time today," Gabriella said as she sat on her bed.

Taylor finally looked up at Gabriella. "I know but he's a really sweet guy. Ever since the championships a few days ago, we've really clicked. I mean, it feels like we've been going out forever,"

"But it only has been a few days," Gabriella finished.

"Exactly. And we're going out tonight," Taylor laughed.

Gabriella laughed alongside of her. "But really Taylor, I'm proud of you. He's a really nice guy and you definitely deserve him."

"You think so?" Taylor asked.

"I know so, now come on. The mall's waiting for us," Gabriella said as she got off her bed and grabbed her purse. Taylor smiled as she finished typing in her message and closed her laptop. She too grabbed her purse and her laptop messenger bag and met up with Gabriella outside.

"We're going to a party!" Gabriella sang.

"And I'm going on a date," Taylor said and the girls laughed.

Chad's House

Chad is typing on his computer smiling. He shuts it down and Troy enteres into the room.

"Hey man!" Troy exclaims. Chad looks up at him and they both do their handshake. Laughing, Troy sits on Chad's bed as Chad turns his chair to face him.

"What's been going on man?" Chad asks, "you amped for that party tomorrow night?"

"Dude, I've been cleaning up around the house getting ready for that thing. It's gonna be so awesome. I was calling you asking if you can come, what were you doing?" Troy explained.

"Been talking to Taylor. We're going out to dinner at Red Lobster. She's really cool," Chad says.

"Aw, my best friend's in love," Troy asks.

"Come on man, I go out with her. She's an awesome person. I like her a lot," Chad said in defense.

"Sorry, Chad. No need to get all mad at me," Troy said.

"It's alright. But on the topic of girls, you should definitely go for Gabriella. She's perfect for you," Chad says.

"Yeah I know. I might tell her at the party today," Troy replies.

"Dude, you better!" Chad exclaims, slightly punching Troy on his arm. Troy laughs and has a serious look on his face. How was he gonna ask her out?

Kappa Kay Lounge

Sharpay and Kelsi are outside on a porch sitting at a table when a waitress gives them their drinks.

"Thank you," they both say to the waitress as they leave.

"So are you ready for Troy's party tonight?" Kelsi asks.

"I can't wait to go. It's gonna be the coolest party ever, especially with Troy," Sharpay replies with a smile.

Kelsi smiles alongside with her. "You think you might hook up with him tonight?" she asks.

"I don't know. I hope I do," Sharpay says, "but I heard that Gabi likes him,"

"So," Kelsi says, "I like Chad but Taylor's going out with him."

Sharpay sighs, "What's with them and liking geeks? I mean they should have better common sense in girls,"

"Whatever. But you have a better chance with Troy though," Kelsi replied.

"You think?" Sharpay asks. She smirks as she looks at Kelsi.

Red Lobster

Chad pulls into the valet parking lot and gets out of the car. He's wearing dark blue jeans and a black polo shirt with black Timberlands. Chad opens the passenger door to reveal Taylor wearing black gauchos, a white medium-sleeved shirt with a black and white BCBG jacket on and white converse.

"Thanks, Chad," Taylor smiles. Chad smiles back and takes her hand as they walk into the resterant. They get to their table and take a seat.

"We'll have the shrimp platter with the cole slaw and french fries," Chad said to the waitress, "Thanks,"

"So how you've been?" Chad started lamely. Taylor giggled, "I've been better since we talked today."

"Right, sorry about that," Chad replies, "You ready for the party tomorrow?"

"Yeah, me and Gabs went shopping today for it. We have some amazing outfits," Taylor said.

"And I can totally tell that that jacket is very new," Chad smiles, "it looks cute on you, Tay,"

"Thanks," she blushed as she smiled shyly. Chad reaches out and holds her hand across the table.

"I'm so glad that I'm going out with you, Taylor," Chad says, "It's like there's a new side of me that no one has seen until you came along. You really brought myself out and that's what I like about you."

"Really?" Taylor says softly.

"Yeah," Chad replies. He leans over the table and softly kisses Taylor on the lips. She respondes and pulls back as the waitress came back with their food. While eating, Chad and Taylor stole glances at one another, knowing that this was a relationship that was gonna last.
