Chad nodded once at his friend and laughed. "Yeah, a lot of adjusting. Well, let's not waste anymore time."
Chad gave one more quick look at his reflection in the mirror. "And trust me," Chad continued confidently in response to his hair. "I know what I'm talking about!" With that, he followed Troy out the door.

"Hey, unless you want to chip in for a new truck, i'd keep your mouth shut" Troy told Chad in mock-seriousness. He turned around once he was outside to see Chad stil lookingiin the mirror, "Sometimes I think you are a girl.." he muttered, walking the footpath as Chad approched. "So your not gonna be grouchy all day since I woke you up from your precious beauty sleep are you?" he asked teasingly as he walked.

"I need my own car first, dude!" Chad complained with a laugh. He'd been saving up since last summer, but knew that it wasn't enough for a decent car. Everytime he was verging on having enough money, he'd find some new reason to spend some of it. Chad was sick of having to always get a ride from his parents or Troy. His parents were just embarassing, and getting a ride from Troy always involved pushing it most of the way.
He heard Troy's joke about him being a girl and swirled around to look at him. "If you hadn't rushed me I would've had time to make sure my hair looks perfect before we were leaving." He smirked.
They both made their way down the footpath, and Chad turned around to make sure the front door was locked. He heard Troy's question and laughed. "No guarantees, man," He shrugged with a 'what can ya do?' kind of attitude. "You brought this upon yourself!"

"Well get your own car, then you can drive me all around town" Troy smirked. "What happened to that money from Lava Springs anyway?" he asked, looking at his friend.
Troy then rolled his eyes and laughed at Chad comment. "Dude, you just proved my point" he smirked.
He continued walking as Chad turned to see if the door was locked, "Aw man, now that I know your a girl you'll be even grumpier since I interupted your beauty sleep" he teased, waiting for Chad to catch up.

Chad laughed. "Yeah, you know it, man. We'll be tearing up the streets!" His laughing fell short when Troy asked about his Lava Springs money from the summer. He was hoping a summer job would get him enough money to afford a car--any car! Unfortunately, Chad wasn't the best at managing money spending.
"Oh, yeah... that money," Chad flashed a sheepish grin. "Don't blame me, man! I just took Taylor out a few times. And she'd kill me if I made her pay!"
Chad turned away from the door after he finished locking it. He laughed humorlessly at Troy's comment. "Oh, good one, funny guy." He continued down the footpath. "But I promise I'll behave." He added sarcastically with a roll of his eyes. Once he approached Troy's truck, he gave it the once-over.
"Dude," Chad exhaled quickly as he poked the front tire with the tip of his sneaker. "I hate to say it, but this thing needs some serious help."

Troy laughed, "Maybe if the truck actually gets up and running we can race" He said with a slight chuckle. He looked at Chad when he mentioned the money from Lava Springs, rolling his eyes at Chads grin. "Well, fair enough. But you're not the one for the most expensive dates" he smirked.
Following Chad down the footpath to his awaiting truck, grinning innocently. "It was too easy" he said as he approched the truck that was already unlocked. Who would steal a rusted old truck barley worked anyway?
"Thats all I ask" he added quicky with a grin as he looked upon his truck. He looked back at Chad when he spoke, "Sometimes I think the same thing about you" he said, still looking at the truck. "I say we get this thing home first, then head to the junkyard" he commented, looking at Chad. "Or I guess we could go straight to the yard.." he added as an after thought.

Chad grinned widely and laughed. "Only if you're prepared to lose!" He joked happily to Troy.
Chad began to inspect the rest of Troy's truck. Even if it suffered from a few minor flaws, the truck was in pretty good shape all in all. It just needed a new paint job, a few new parts for the engine, and maybe some air in the tires. It was a real fixer-upper, but there was something endearing about it. Besides, the way Chad saw it, having a crappy car was better than having no car--and he would know. His eyes shot back up to Troy when he heard his teasing insult. He crossed his arms across his chest and grinned again. "I'd say we're both a little messed up. Why else would we be spending all our Saturdays fixing this thing up?"
Chad opened the passenger side door and sat in the slightly tattered seat. "We should probably head to the yard first. Less time on the road means less of a chance we'll end up pushing!" Chad closed the door which caused the hinges to give a shriek. He winced slightly at the sound.

Troy looked at Chad, "And face the slight chance of being arrested" he added to Chads comment with a smirk.
Going around the other side of the truck, he hoisted himself onto the back, making the truck move slightly. "You know, we could put a TV back here, an xbox..and we'll be set for life" He said with a slight chuckle as he inspected the truck from where he was standing. He looked down at Chad and laughed, shrugging "So we can spend our Sundays driving around" he said with a grin, jumping back down onto the ground.
Troy nodded with a slight chuckle as he opened the drivers door, slamming it shut once he was inside. "Maybe I should go on Pimp My Ride.." he said once he put the keys in.

Chad laughed as he leaned back in his seat. "Dude, if I'm going down, you're going down with me!"
Chad heard Troy's comment as he climbed to his side of the truck. Chad nodded in agreement, grinning. "Yeah, we're kinda out-growing your treehouse. So let's make your truck our new hangout!" He teased lightheartedly.
Chad's eyes widened with excitement when he heard his joking suggestion of going on Pimp My Ride. "Man!" He sat upward again. "Do it! You could get some serious gear for this thing." He reached for the radio nob and twisted it a couple times. The noise came out crackly and full of feedback. Chad winced slightly. The radio had never been good in Troy's truck, but that wasn't too surprising. He listened to the music anyway which seemed to be hidden behind all the crackling.

"If I go down with you, whos gonna bail you out?" Troy asked with a grin as he looked around the top of his truck before coming back down.
He laughed when Chad mentioned the treehouse, "Dude, we havent been in that thing in ages" He said. "Or y'know..we can start hanging at your place" He said with a smirk as he started up the old truck.
Pulling out of the driveway slowly, Troy turned to Chad quickly and nodded. "Like I said..put a TV and an xbox and we'd never leave" he grinned. "Its like the treehouse when we we're kids" he added quickly with a small shrug as he drove down the road.
"And at least i'd get a new radio.." he mentioned when he saw Chad fiddling with nob. "That actually plays music.." he continued with a slight shake of his head when all he heard was crackling, with the slight hint of music in the background.

Chad shrugged and laughed when he heard Troy ask who was going to bail him out. "We both got girlfriends. Problem solved!" He teased lightly.
Chad paused when Troy mentioned hanging at his place. He watched Troy back out of the driveway. "Dude, my place? That'd be a nightmare! At least your parents are cool."
The truck started moving out to the road, easing into the correct speed limit. "Yeah, actual music would be nice." Chad quickly motioned to the radio. "Anything but this crap!" He leaned in to listen closely. "I think there's a song in here somewhere..."

Troy glanced at Chad quickly with a chuckle, "You sure Taylor would actually want to bail you out?" He asked with a teasing smirk.
He turned back to the road and laughed when Chad said going to his place would be a nightmare. "Your parents are cool" he said, making a turn. "Dude, we see enough of my dad as is. I say we go to your house more" he grinned, turning to Chad briefly.
He then nodded, agreeing with Chad. He stopped at a light and watched Chad lean in towards the radio and laughed, "Yeah..somewhere" he said with a slight shake of his head as the light went green.

Chad didn't think about Troy's question for very long. He already knew the answer. "Eh, you're probably right. She'd watch me suffer behind bars for a while before she got me out," He turned to his friend and gave him a light punch in the arm. "I'll bet Gabs would get you out in a heartbeat!"
Chad groaned as Troy sprouted his suggestion. "I guess we can hang at my house a little more... I'm gonna regret this later, dude. My parents drive me insane sometimes! But they just loooove you." He grinned widely. Mr. and Mrs. Danforth love Troy like a son, and always encourage him to come over whenever he wants. Luckily, Chad and Troy turned out to be such great friends, and Troy's visits never seemed to be a problem.
"Maybe we'll find an old radio at the yard," Chad shrugged at his own comment. "I've seen some pretty weird stuff there before. You never know."

Troy raised an eyebrow when the Chad suddenly shut up. He glanced at him quickly and chuckled quietly, knowing he was thinking of an answer to his previous question. He nodded, agreeing with Chad. "Heck, i'd do that too" he smirked, "I'd pay to see you put behind bars" he teased. He looked at Chad once again when he was punched on the arm lightly, smiling a bit when his girlfriend was mentioned as he shrugged lightly as his answer.
"Dude, my parents drive me insane too. You try seeing your dad everywhere you go" He said with a slight smirk. He then shrugged, "Well, yeah. Whats not to love?" he asked teasingly with a grin.
Troy then nodded, "Maybe, but we'll be lucky to find one that actually works" he said as he made another turn, going towards the junkyard. He nodded once again, "Its crazy what people throw out these days" He said, "Wont be suprised that dad got the truck from there" he said with a slight chuckle, knowing infact the truck came from his uncle.

"Aw, c'mon, man," Chad laughed as he rolled down his window manually. He hated that about Troy's truck. He'd much rather press a button to get what he wants. "If I was in jail, who would help you fix up your truck?"
Chad raised an eyebrow at Troy when he made his comment about his parents. "They only love you 'cause they don't know you like I do. If they knew the real Troy Bolton, we'd get a padlock on our door!" He joked.
Chad nodded his head in agreement to Troy's comment. He leaned against the back of his seat and let the cool breeze blow into him from his open window. He had to admit that it was a beautiful day out. Deep down, he was kind of glad that Troy made him get up so early. He didn't want to miss out on such a nice day. "Yeah, fingers crossed, dude."
