Chapter 1: Friday Night Fun
Summary: It's Friday night. One week of school left. Brainstorming of the Trip to Hawaii is underway. Girls go shopping and later that night the gang meets up for a movie and some chill time.
Troy Bolton woke up to the sound of his alarm clock, blaring the latest song from the radio. He groaned and hit the snooze button. He dragged himself out of bed and walked to his closet. He picked out his favorite blue shirt and a pair of dark jeans. He placed the clothes on his bed and hopped in the shower.
After getting dressed, he walked down the stairs and into the kitchen for breakfast. His mom had made him toast, scrambled eggs and bacon. He walked over to the fridge and pulled out the orange juice carton. He shook it up forcefully and poured it into a glass from inside a cabinet.
After breakfast, he walked back up to his room to grab his cell phone and a pair of blue and white sneakers. He glanced at the number of text messages he had already gotten and proceeded to read and respond to all the ones from Chad and Gabriella. After that was done, he grabbed his keys off the counter in the kitchen. He walked next door to Chad's house and knocked on the door. Chad came out with a pop tart in hand and they drove in Troy's car to Gabriella's house to pick her up.
On their way, Chad got a call from Taylor, asking if she could get a ride as well. They made a quick stop at Taylor's house and Gabriella sat in the backseat with her to talk about the science test they were having today.
When they got to school, Troy enlaced his fingers with Gabriella's small hand and walked with her to her locker. She started pulling out books and notebooks from inside as he just talked to her. When she was finished, he walked with her to his locker where he ended up pulling out a math book and a note he had written yesterday that he forgot to give Gabi. It was a poem he had written for her. He deposited the book into his backpack and the note into Gabi's hand.
The ten minute bell rang, signaling they had ten minutes before class started. They walked around the hallways for a few minutes, chatting with random kids. They met up with Chad, Taylor, Kelsi, Jason, Sharpay, Zeke and Ryan and made their way to homeroom. The minute bell rang as they all piled into their seats. Ms. Darbus made a sarcastic remark when they came in, but everyone was just too tired to care.
Ms. Darbus talked about the spring musical and the rehearsals for next week throughout the fifteen minutes that they had homeroom. When the bell rang, Troy walked into the hallway and waited at the side of the door for Gabriella. He had to go to math while she had to go to English. He walked her to class and gave her a quick peck on the lips before heading off in the direction of his first class.
The first half of the day went by in a blur for the gang. Gabriella and Taylor just hung out and talked during English while Troy and Chad worked on Algebra in math class. After that, they all met up for Science, where the big test on Plate Tectonics was being held. Gabi and Troy studied last night at Troy's house, because the test counted for half of their final grade. They managed to get some studying done, but were too interested in each other to get everything memorized. Troy knew he would pay for it, but Gabi was confident they would do just fine.
When science was over, it was time for an hour and a half free period. This would mean lots of chill time for the gang, but Chad, Jason and Zeke had to head over to the gym for basketball practice while Troy, Gabi, Sharpay, Ryan and Kelsi headed into the auditorium for information on the Spring Musical being performed next week.
When it came time for lunch, everyone was so tired. From having to run suicides all during practice, the basketball guys were hungry and their muscles ached. Troy and Gabi had to keep practicing their song, waiting for you, over and over again because Ms. Darbus wanted everything perfect. When they all got their lunches, they ate hungrily and everything seemed good. It was Friday, after all.
"Troy, you're so lucky you didn't have to come to practice today. After doing a hundred and seventy five suicides, coach made me want to suicide!" Chad groaned, slapping Troy on the back.
"Well, I didn't have it any better! I had to keep singing and dancing. Repeating the same things over and over again. I don't think I can do another musical ever again. Plus, Chad, you're forgetting who the coach is. He's my dad. Whatever I miss during practice is what I have to make up twice as bad at home. Yay for me." Troy said, stuffing a couple french-fries in his mouth.
Gabriella leaned up against the wall in back of her and placed her head on Troy's shoulder. Troy smiled down at her as he continued to munch on his fries.
"So, how do you guys think you did on that science test today?" Taylor said, breaking the silence.
"I think I did okay. Science isn't my best subject." Chad said.
"Same here." Zeke interjected.
"Troy and I tried to study last night, but I think we had other things on our minds, if you know what I'm saying." Gabriella winked at Troy who merely kissed the top of her head. Everyone erupted in giggles as the subject was changed, yet again.
"Zeke-y, baby, I won't get to see you much next week during school because Ms. Darbus has us practicing for the musical. She said we can go to the first two classes of the day, but we have to report directly to the auditorium for rehearsals. If you thought today was bad, Troy, you haven't seen anything yet. Just wait until you fall into the routine of practicing and no breaks, for four and a half hours. Fun, fun, fun!" Sharpay said sarcastically.
Troy groaned and got up to throw his and Gabriella's Styrofoam lunch trays away. He grabbed at her hand and helped her up.
"Troy, I'm so tired. I just want to sit here and sleep!" Gabriella protested.
"But Gabi-eee!" Troy pouted.
"Where are you taking me, Troy?" Gabriella whined.
"To our secret make-out spot, babe!" Troy smiled.
"Okay okay. Let's go. But I might just collapse if you don't hold me up." Gabi said, only to have Troy wrap his strong arms around her waist.
When Troy and Gabi go up to the roof, Troy sat down next to Gabi on the bench. Gabi rested her head on Troy's chest and closed her eyes, listening to the birds chirp in the flowers nearby.
"So, what are you doing this summer?" Troy asked, stroking Gabi's soft hair.
"Whatever you're doing." She said, not even bothering to open her eyes.
Troy chuckled, closing his eyes as well. They sat there, just being happy to be with each other. Troy opened his eyes when he felt Gabi get out of his loving grip.
"What are you doing?" He asked.
"Shhh." She said, sitting on his lap and kissing his soft lips.
Troy kissed back, letting his hands caress her back gingerly. They kissed for a little bit, enjoying every bit of it. Troy broke the kiss and pulled Gabriella into his chest tightly.
He whispered in her ear, "I love you Gabriella Montez. With all of my heart." He tickled her ear. She let out a soft laugh.
"I love you more, Troy Bolton." She said, challenging him.
"Oh contraire, it is me who is the one that loves more." He said with a Mexican accent. Gabriella giggled and was about to kiss his awaiting lips when the bell rang. They gasped and jumped up, collecting each others hands and running down the stairs.
When the school day was over, the gang retreated to Gabriella's house, where no one was home. They popped four jumbo bags of popcorn and placed different toppings in each. One had melted butter smothered everywhere, another had little pieces of chocolate mixed in. The third one was regular and the fourth bag had caramel slathered all over.
Since it was only 2:30, they picked out a couple movies but didn't place one in the DVD player yet. They decided to play a game of Truth or Dare.
"Gabi goes first!" Taylor shouted.
"Okay, fine. Then Taylor gets the question!" She smirked.
"Fine, bring it on!" She said.
"Truth or Dare, Tay?" She said evilly.
"Dare. Do I ever back down from a challenge?" She laughed.
"Hmm. I dare you to go next door to the fat guy with the seven cats. You have to have on a tight tank top and your hair up in a ponytail. Then you have to flirt with him and kiss him on the cheek. After that, you have to get him to invite you in. You will have my secret earpiece in your ear and when he offers you a drink you have to get a soda can. Shake it up and spray it all over yourself. Then say, 'oops!' and take off your pants. Then bite your bottom lip and run back over here! Good luck!" She said.
Taylor's mouth was wide open. Chad stood up.
"No way! She's my girlfriend and I don't want her kissing some old fat guy!" He said, causing everyone to laugh.
"Don't worry, Chad. I never back down from a challenge so I have to do it. But if I don't return, just remember that I love you." She kissed him, earning 'awws' from everyone. She got herself ready and did her task. It took a while for him to offer her a soda and when he did, she shook it up and sprayed herself all over. She dropped her pants and picked them up quickly before running back to Gabriella's house.
Everyone was in a fit of laughter.
The game continued on and Troy's dare was to make out with Gabriella in front of Gabriella's mom. But since her mom wasn't home yet, he had later on to humiliate himself. They ended up coming on the subject of Spring Break.
"I'm not doing anything." Everyone said at the same time. Sharpay got a smirk on her face.
"I know what that face means." Ryan announced.
"What are you thinking, sis?" He said.
"I just got a great plan. We should go on vacation together!" Everyone smiled and started talking all at once.
"Where would we go?" Asked Gabriella.
"What would we do?" Taylor chimed in.
"Would our parents even let us?" Kelsi added.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa. Hold on. Let's go one at a time." Zeke cleared the air.
"I've always wanted to go to Hawaii." Troy suggested. Everyone beamed, agreeing right away.
"Yeah! We could go to that famous amusement park. We could also go to a beach and catch some rays." Chad said excitedly.
The gang started talking about everything they wanted to do. They had so many things planned out that they weren't sure how much time they needed to fulfill each and every item on the list.
"How long would we stay, though?" Sharpay asked.
"I don't know." Troy said.
"A week would be too short but longer than a month would be too long." Gabriella said.
"How about just a month then? It wouldn't be too short and it wouldn't be too long. We have practically two months of spring break, so it wouldn't take the whole time away." Ryan suggested. Everyone agreed.
Gabriella got out a notebook and passed pens around to everyone. She told them to write down two things that they wanted to do. She figured that if the things were small, they could do two a day. They would mix them up and plan out their vacation perfectly. All they had to do was get permission from their parents.
So, that was the first chapter! Do you think it will be good? I think I am getting better at my writing but it's not as good as I think I could do. Suggestions welcome! Hope you liked it!
