Authors Note: Hey guys, yes I know I've been up and down lately not posting any new chapters. I've been so busy with school, but I decided that I wanted to write a new story, but I'm not sure if I'll be able to update every now and then, but I'll try.

What's the worst thing that could ever happen to you? Getting an F on a term paper? Your parents kicking you out? Getting dumped? For Gabriella Montez, the worst thing that could ever happen to her was losing him. He was her life, he was her light. He was her drug.

Gabriella Montez, that name had the West Beverly school wired. She was their icon, she was their leader. No, this isn't some typical American high school, where Gabriella Montez was a cheerleader who has all the guys on their knees and got the whole female student body wishing that they were Gabriella. It's funny; Gabriella Montez is a quirky nerd, who happens to "dress nicely." Now how come a nerd has the whole school wired? It all began on September 7th, 2008, Gabriella's senior year.

Now let me take you to that day, and let's join Gabriella into her senior year that has ups and downs and definitely a whole lot of Drama, what would Beverly Hills be without it?

It was the first day of school at West Beverly Hills, which means: summer is over. Normally, any senior or teenager would whine, going back to school was not fun. Well, for Gabriella Montez it was like a new chapter in a book. Gabriella had been in West Beverly Hills all of her High School years. She knows the school more than the back of her hand.

Gabriella wakes up around 6:30 A.M, and goes to the bathroom. She follows her normal morning routine that includes her washing her teeth, and wait...I bet you don't want to know about this? I mean, who wants to know about a girl's morning routine? Let's just move to the part where Gabriella gets into her car, her very fancy Audi S7 car, and goes to school, Shall we?

"Don't forget you have to be home by dinner Gabi!" Gabriella rolls her eyes at her mother, she always (she ain't kidding, she always,) comes home at dinner time.

"Yes, mother!" Gabriella's mom, Anita smiled.

As Gabriella gets into her house's garage, she hops into her Audi S7 and puts her bags by the seat next to her. She quickly gets out one of her favorite albums, "Superchic[k]" and puts the CD in. The song, "Stand in the Rain," is now flowing inside of Gabriella Montez's car.

Now, I bet you're wondering, "Dang, Gabi has an Audi S7?!" Yup, she does! Her mother works for an Audi company in Beverly Hills. Gabriella isn't rich, not at all. Her mother on the other hand, is well I can't lie but she is pretty much rich, I mean she is the Vice President of the company. Let's just move on to High School, I won't be chit chatting anymore, it will be all Gabriella now!

I just love the song "Stand in the Rain," it's so beautiful. It just makes you want to sing your whole heart out, kind've like how I am now. "So stand in the rain! Stand your ground..." My mind starts to drift off to the first day of Senior Year, I'm just so psyched. Just think about it, you'll be finishing high school and you'll finally get to experience life as it is.

Just as I was turning to the right, there was a boy in a black hoodie crossing the street. I immediately stopped. Wow, if I wasn't even focusing I would've totally had an accident. Wait, why am I thinking that way that's really stupid, I mean who says that? I shook my head; however the boy was still standing there looking at me. I didn't know what to do so I rolled down my window and stuck my head out.

"Um! Excuse me? Can you move out of the way? You're kind've blocking the road?" The boy seemed to have understood, hence that was nodding and walking quickly to the side walk. I began to wonder who he was. And was he going to our school because he was carrying a bag on his shoulder?

I shrugged off the thoughts and drove off to school, which brings me back to my first thoughts: I'm so psyched!

I parked into my usual spot and got out of the car. The fresh air hit my face, and I smiled, this year will be great!

As I walked down the familiar West Beverly Hills hallways, I greeted many of my class mates and teachers. I heard a familiar voice screech my name.

"GABI!!" I giggled as one of my best friends, Sharpay, charges at me.

"I missed you this summer!" Sharpay said, looking up and down at my casual clothes, "and girl you look fine!" I giggled again.

"Thanks Shar, I missed you too! How was your summer?" I asked.

We began to walk down the hallways to our lockers. Sharpay Evans was the head cheerleader at West Bev. We've been best friends ever since freshman year. It was difficult at first because her cheerleading squad had told her, "You know, you shouldn't hang out with 'unpopular' kids. It will totally ruin your image." Surprisingly Sharpay still hung out with me, she says, "I'd give up anything to just hang out with an amazing friend like you. Cheerleading is not worth it, if it means I have to lose you." Sharpay Evans was definitely the greatest friend you can ever ask for.

Speaking of the friends, my best friends Taylor and Chad just made it to school.

"Tay!! Chad!" I screamed, Taylor was my other best friend and Chad was her boyfriend, and is also like an older brother to me.

Taylor and I were sharing a hug, while Chad was grinning waiting for me to hug him.

"Gabster!" he said while giving me one of his big bear hugs. "I missed you, and your little witty comments!"

"Little?" I asked. He laughed. As a group, we all made our way to homeroom.

"This is going to be a great year." Gabriella said out loud, and the gang nodded.

Chad, being Chad, randomly shouts, "HOLLA!"

Yes, Gabriella had it good. This year will be great...or will it be worse?
