Troy was gay. Chad was, too.

There was a day in Troy Bolton's life when he wasn't sure of everything, when the world he lived in didn't follow the normal rules, when he wasn't sure of the direction his life was going. On that day, Troy figured out that he was in fact gay. This day happened to be the day that Troy started the tenth grade. This is the day he noticed that boys could be sexy, too, namely one boy – his best friend, Chad Danforth.

There was a time in Chad Danforth's life where all the pieces fell out of place and the clock turned in the opposite direction. On this day, the sun seemed to give no light, but leave the world as dark and cold as the day his mother died. That was the day that Chad Danforth finally accepted that he batted for the other team, that the line was not straight, but curved, that he was gay. On this day when Chad was set to start the eighth grade, he came to acknowledge that he was in fact in love with his best friend – namely, one Troy Bolton.

A/N #2: I plan on this story being at least 25 chapters long, this being the first chapter. I started with sentences like the one in italics. Those are going to be what the chapters are about basically. I'm sorry this is short, but it's all I could think of to write.
