Hey guys, I usually write Trailers before I start the story but I'd just like to jump straight into this one. Enjoy!
This ones called 'Bullied Into Love'
Chapter 1 – The Biggest Freak Ever
She cringed when she heard the group of teenagers following her, Gabriella Montez had never been very good at handling difficult situations and she could tell this would be a difficult situation…for her anyway!
"Hey Four eyes, come back, we want to play." She heard one of the girls laugh, she turned to see Sharpay Evans in the middle of the group grinning nastily.
Gabriella walked a little faster, they would soon be on her like a pack of ravenous wolves and when she was out numbered seven to one it wasn't fun at all.
She closed her eyes tight for a moment trying to breathe deep and keep calm but how could she. You see, Gabriella Montez was known as East High's most nerdish girl. Since the first day she had arrived she had been treated inferior to the other teens and kicked about. It was torture and it was terrible for Gabriella, she sometimes wanted it all to end, her life to end but she would always think of her mother and what she would be feeling. How she would cope without her?
She opened her eyes when she felt her thin body bump into something very tall and strong. She dared herself to gaze up and found herself looking into the amazing but devilish eyes of Troy Bolton, East High's most popular Jock and the biggest bully known to Albuquerque.
"Well…look who it is, Geeky Gabi!" He jeered and Gabriella heard the others laugh around her, she was cornered now.
"Look…Tr…Troy…I don't…wa…want any trouble. I'm…I'm just…go…goin…going to Maths class." Gabriella stammered, looking at her feet.
"Oh really, well…you see Four eyes, I didn't do my homework last night so I'll just take yours." He laughed and he clicked his fingers and two other jocks, Jason and Zeke rammed her up against a locker and searched her bag for her maths homework.
"We've found it Troy." Zeke said holding it up, eager to please the most popular jock.
"Great, I'll definitely get an 'A+' for sure." Troy laughed and those around him laughed too.
"Oh…but I worked…so hard…on that." Gabriella complained.
"And it'll show too, don't worry, I'll make sure that it gets graded first, just for you." Troy said and he held her up against the locker and the rest of the gang laughed.
No – one really tried to stop them, though many would want to. Troy Bolton wasn't someone to be messed with, ever! The last boy who even tried was in hospital for six weeks, almost in a coma.
"Please…just…let me –" But before she could say any more one of the girls had snatched her book away and they proceeded to play piggy in the middle for it, watching as she struggled to retrieve her treasured book.
One of the girls looked at it properly, "Harry Potter, what a freak! Stuck in the world of magic are we geeky Gabi." She laughed cruelly.
Before Gabriella could even reply the bell had rung and the group soon departed.
"Jerks!" Gabriella called after them.
Troy seemed to have heard and he turned back with his eyebrows raised.
"What did you say?" He bellowed making Gabriella flinch.
"No…nothing." He stammered.
He walked over to her and glared at her viciously, she knew he wouldn't hit her, Troy wasn't the type to do that, no the girls would take care of her.
He kicked her Harry Potter book across the floor and laughed before spitting at her feet.
"Drop dead." He laughed and walked off to catch up with his friends.
She watched him walk off before allowing a tear to slide down her cheek; she wiped it away quickly and walked over to her Harry Potter book. She picked it up and squeezed it to her chest tight; she pressed herself up hard against the wall as if hoping she would disappear into it before she walked off again into the crowds.
"MISS Montez, you're late!" The maths teacher, Mrs Sums said firmly.
"I'm sorry Miss Sums, 'She looked at Troy and his friends, "I…I dropped my books."
"Hmm, well sit down please and I'll be coming around for the homework." She said to the class.
She went around taking their work off them and when she turned to Troy she smiled.
"I hope it's another wonderful piece Troy." She said to him affectionately, Troy always had special treatment because he was the schools best basketball player.
"I tried my best Mrs Sums." He said giving her a big fake grin.
When she got to Gabriella she looked at her smiling.
"I'm sorry Mrs Sums…I…didn't do my homework." She stammered nervously.
"Again? You're growing awfully lazy Miss Montez, because you're so good at Maths I'll give you another chance, I want it in my tomorrow, do you understand?" Mrs Sums said sternly.
"Yes Ma'am." Gabriella replied pushing her glasses up her nose.
"Good, well let's get one with the lesson." She said to the class.
While Mrs Sums was doing a maths problem on the board Gabriella felt something hit her on the head, she bent down and picked up a crumpled piece of paper. She turned to see Troy and his friends laughing at her.
She opened it quickly and looked around before beginning to read it:
Poor Sad little Gabi, stupid little slut,
Cower on the floor you dirty smelly mutt,
After class we'll hurt you, we'll have so much fun,
So when the bell starts ringing you'd better bloody run!
Gabriella whimpered and looked at them, all of them were watching her grinning, she slunk down in her chair imagining herself invisible…what was the matter with her?
Suddenly the voice came on the intercom.
"Can Troy Bolton and Gabriella Montez make their way to Mr Banks' English class immediately."
The class looked around at the pair and Mrs Sums put her chalk down frowning.
"Okay you two, go on then." She sighed and Gabriella grabbed her bag and Troy followed quickly after her.
They walked in silence to the English room, Gabriella was just a few steps in front of Troy and every now and then she pushed her glasses up her nose in nervousness. When they got there they entered the class and there was Mr Banks smiling at them.
"Hello both, come in." He said and they came and sat beside him.
"Now I understand that you're both very confused about why I have brought you here. Actually, it's about Troy." He said.
Troy looked over at Gabriella glaring, as if to say 'What have you said?'
"Now, Troy's grades aren't as good as they should be and I know he's able to keep going. He doesn't like poetry very much I can see that. Well...in order for Troy to stay on the basketball team he at least has to get a 'C' in English. This is where you come in Gabriella; I was wondering whether you'd tutor Troy. You are the best in the class after all." The teacher said.
Troy knew not to argue with the teacher.
"Of course sir, we'll get started straight away. In fact Gabriella can come over my house tomorrow." He said cheerfully.
"Good, I'm glad you're eager to learn Troy. I expect improvements from you in the next two months. Do you understand?" Mr Banks asked.
"Yes sir." Troy said nodding and Gabriella and Troy both stood up and made for the door.
"Goodbye, 'Troy said and when he closed the door his smile dropped as he turned to Gabriella, "Listen, here's the deal! You do my next English assignment and I'll pretend this didn't happen."
Gabriella looked up at him and said determinedly, "No!"
"What?" He spat.
"No, I'm not doing it, you either accept my help or not." She said timidly.
Troy looked shocked and he pointed at her fiercely.
"You'll listen and you'll do it!" He snapped.
"No, I won't." She replied shaking her head.
Troy was surprised she was arguing back and he suddenly gave in.
"Fine but we start at your house; no cool people will be around to see me. I know where your house is! We start tomorrow." He said quietly as people started to walk past them.
"Okay." Gabriella replied hugging her book to her again.
"I'll see you tomorrow then." He said and suddenly flung her books out of her arms before walking off looking furious.
Gabriella sat on her knees and picked up her books before leaning against her locker, she had no idea what was to come!
