Okay guys, I don't know HOW many reviews I got from criticism on my last chapter. So I thought about it, and I got the perfect idea that would help ME, and you reviewers/haters/other people. So here it is...forgive me if I upset you and worried you. Please tell me what I did wrong and I will fix it. And guys, then next 2 chapters involve Gabriella's birthday, and the ending for the next chapter after the next one after this is going to freak you guys out, and don't jump into conclusions, because I don't know how many people freaked about the last chapter.

SERIES 2

Chapter 64

Chad, Zeke, and Jason shared looks. "You've gotta be kidding me right?" Jason said then walking out and into the car.

"Don't worry, I'll smack him around a bit when he gets home." Chad said rolling his eyes, "I mean, c'mon! Wasn't Machelle enough to talk SOME sense into him. She was already a big of a bitch as we already now." Chad said hitting his head against the drivers wheel.

They drove back to Troy's place in silence and came in and saw Dylan eating a bowl of ice cream with a cherry on top, smothered in chocolate syrup. (Must I say, MMMM!)

"Mmm..." Chad said hopping up on the counter and looking at Dylan's huge bowl of ice cream. "And you can't treat me like that why?" Chad said still looking at the bowl of ice cream.

"Because..." Gabriella thought about it, "Because your never here." Gabriella stated then grabbed a few more bowls and served them up some cookie dough ice cream, got out three spoons, and poured chocolate syrup all over it. Then placed it in front of the three boys, then realized something.

"Where's Troy? I thought the said he was hanging out with you guys?" Gabriella asked, as she raised one eyebrow and stared at the two. Chad chuckled, uncomfortably.

"Well, he met a girl, and ended up leaving the game with her..." Chad chuckled, and continued, "And, we left him with..." he thought for a few seconds, "What was her name guys?" Chad said, trying to make it seem as if it wasn't that bad. As if it weren't horrible for Troy to be with another girl. But really? Could it really be that bad?

"Laura?" Jason laughed, "Yea, that's it. Laura." Jason said as he took a mouthful of ice cream and stuffed into himself to make sure he didn't keep talking. Not one of them wanted to see Gabriella cry, or get angry.

Then the door opened, "Hey guys! Home!" Troy said looking around and saw them in the kitchen. "Mmm ice cream." he said grabbing a bowl and scooped some for himself.

"Where were you?" Gabriella said as she raised an eyebrow, and went to sit by Dylan, who had chocolate syrup all over his face. Gabriella finished her ice cream and went to clean it with a wet napkin.

"Oh...." Troy said, "I was hanging out with a new friend of mine? Why?" Troy said as he took a huge bite and let the ice cream melt in his mouth and winked at Gabriella. Gabriella didn't blush like she normally did when he winked at her.

"Oh, I met her at the game. She and I played some basketball, and realized we had a lot in common, and Jase...here's her number." he said reaching into his pocket and handing him a small piece of ripped paper. Jason looked astonished and confused.

"What? Why?" he said holding the paper in his hands, as he put his hands to the side to show he was confused.

"Well, we got talking and asked me if I was your friend and asked me to hand you her number..." Troy shrugged and kissed Gabriella temple, to relax her.

"Oh...." Jason laughed uncomfortably.

"What? I feel like I came in a weird conversation. Like I'm missing something?" Troy said confused as he at the last bite of his ice cream and put it in the sink and let it soak in some water.

"We thought you and Laura like each other..." Zeke mumbled as he ate some more ice cream.

"What???" he said, "No, no, no...." he said shaking his head, "I don't like Laura." Troy laughed, "As a friend, but I gotta girl." Troy laughed again.

"Wait, Ell, you didn't think that too did you?" Troy said beginning to worry he had already hurt her.

Gabriella looked at him, gave a weak smile and nodded and looked back down to the floor. "Yea..." Gabriella said as Troy brought her in for a hug.

"Ella...you should already know that my heart belongs to you. Not Laura, ESPECIALLY not Machelle, or any other girl that I know of...It's yours." Troy whispered in her ears, and Gabriella smiled and kissed his cheek.

"Aww..." Dylan said giddily and then wiped his face off with a napkin and jumped off the stool and hugged Troy's leg.

"Love you too Dill." Troy laughed as he lifted Dylan up and kissed his cheek.

"Eew...Twoy spit!" he said wiping it off with his arm and rubbing it on Troy's cheek.

"What? I'm sooo offended. My own brother doesn't even love my kisses." he said as he handed Dylan to Gabriella.

"NO! Twoy I wove (love) you too!" Dylan whined trying to get back into Troy's arms and Gabriella handed him back to him and Dylan kissed him on the cheek.

"That's what I thought."

Okay that one was really short, but wanted to keep it something sweet. Next chapter is pretty romantic and stuff, so be ready for a really for the mushy stuff. (Gabi's birthday)
