"SUMMERTIME!" Sharpay and Gabriella yelled as the bell rang for the last time in their high school years. Girls were crying, couples were kissing, boys were giving each other man hugs, and teachers were smiling. Senior year was over and it was time for college; but not just yet. During summer, the gang and about a dozen other seniors signed up to go to New York. Since a lot of them were going to NYU and some of them were planning to go to fashion schools there, they thought New York would be the best choice. Troy, Gabriella, Sharpay, Ryan, Taylor, and Chad were going along with a few other people they didn't know.

Everyone was exchanging hugs and shedding tears saying goodbye for the last time since they wouldn't see each other again. This was a depressing happy moment.

"Okay. Since some of you are still in here," Ms. Darbus announced, "Make sure to be back here at 10 a.m. if you've signed up to go to New York, Home of the Broadway Stars. But sad thing is, nobody really listened. They were too excited.

Gabriella was spending the night at Sharpay's. What she didn't know was that Troy was spending the night at Ryan's. The thing is, Troy broke up with her about 3 weeks ago. He said something like "I don't know, the feelings I used to have for you are gone." Gabriella wasn't too emotional about it but inside, it still hurt. Ever since then, they always had awkward eye contacts, usually avoided each other, and became really shy if they were around in each other's presence. Now, they don't know the adventures waiting for them in New York.
