Gabriella Montez 15, just moved to Albuquerque from New York and wasn't really sure if she liked it at the moment. Her mother Maria was a business woman in New York and had to return to New York for work, leaving Gabriella alone for most of the month and every month, except when Gabriella's older sister came home from California the week before her mother.
Her sister was 19 years old and had a different boyfriend month, her name was Kelly, her hair was a brownie blonde colour with a pink streak at the front. Kelly's style was totally different to Gabriella's, she wore very tight jeans, tiny skirts, and the smallest tops ever. A tattoo of a bleeding heart with a knife through it was placed at her lower back, she had piercing almost everywhere, on her nose, her belly and her ears.
Gabriella was the one to talk when they had an argument about piercing, because she had the same as her sister although no tattoo, she refused to dress like her, her clothes were shortish skirts, jeans, tops and basically any shoes and jewellery. She had had a good amount of boyfriends and had decided to look for the right guy.
A knock at the door interrupted Gabriella from a conversation about earrings with her sister, she walked to the door and opened it.
"Hi, I'm Lucille and this is my husband Jack and son Troy, we came to welcome you to the neighbourhood.", she said giving a warm smile.
Kelly came from behind and her eyes locked on Troy "I'll give you your lesson with him", she whispered in Gabriella's ear.
"Umm, why don't you come in, my mom should be back soon she went out to the shop…oh there she is.", informed Gabriella to the people in front of her, they walked through to the living room and sat down followed by Maria.
"Hi, I'm Maria.", she said walking in the room.
They all started making conversation, except Troy and Gabriella who just sat there in silence, staring at each other. Before long Troy stood up and said he was going home to watch a movie.
"Troy why don't you take the girls over with you for some company?", ask Lucille hoping he would so the adults could talk.
"No, I don't want to I'm going to sort out my room, Gabriella can go.", Kelly said with a massive grin on her face.
Twenty minutes later Troy and Gabriella were chatting and had forgotten about the movie.
"So, how old are you?", asked Troy curiously.
"fifteen.", she replied.
"Wow you look about seventeen."
"Really?"
"Yup I'm twenty"
"I figured you were pretty old"
"Hey I'm not that old", Troy said playfully hitting her shoulder, then the doorbell rang, "I'll be right back."
"Hey dude!", said Chad, Troy's friend with two other boys.
"Yeah dude, you need to go!", Troy said.
"Why, you got a girl in there?", Chad said jokingly, but Troy's face stayed serious ,"Dude you have!"
"In a way I have", he quiets down and says, "She's fifteen."
"Dude, what are you doing with a fifteen year old?", said Zeke one of the boys crossly.
