Chapter 1: The Last First Day
Troy Bolton awoke to a piercing shriek from his new alarm clock at 4:30. He groaned, pushed "snooze", and turned over to a short peaceful sleep.
"TROY!" screamed an angry Jack Bolton, storming into his room at 4:37 am. Troy wiped his eyes and sat up. "Dad… what?! Its 4:30 in the morning?!" he lay back down and pulled the sheets over his head. But this didn't stop Jack; he only grabbed the sheets and pulled them down… "Fine! I'll just make Chad the captain in senior year… because he's probably at the gym and you're where?" Troy sat up and ran his fingers through his hair…
"Oh shit! ...sorry" he added when he saw his father's face. It was now going toward 4:50 and practice was at 5:30, but the team had to be there 15 minutes early to stretch. Troy sprinted out of the bathroom, threw on his old sneakers, grabbed a Propel and sprinted out the door into his father's red pick up.
AT THE GYM
When they got there, Troy was still half asleep but looked up to see a familiar face, his best friend, Chad Danforth.
"Sup, Kid?" Chad asked high-fiving Troy, who shrugged his shoulders and said, "You know something, Chad? Sometimes I hate having my dad as a coach, but I wouldn't be here if he didn't remind me what I'm supposed to be doing at 5:12. Let's head inside, the guys are probably in there."
Practice went extremely well, the guys had a few hidden laughs at the freshmen trying out for the team. Then it was time for the coach to talk about the past seasons and then let the captain speak… so Troy grabbed a towel and stood up.
"Alright, guys. Last year, we got 7th in the state, but we could do so much better this year… it's almost like we have to. For most of us, this is our last chance for the state title… the Wildcats only got it two years ago. This year I want to go for at least 5th." Jack Bolton coughed, giving a hint. "I mean… um third! Right well, its 7 o'clock and I think we had a pretty good practice today, so SHOWER UP!" Chad saw this as his moment.
"HEY WHAT TEAM?"
"WILDCATS!"
"WHAT TEAM?"
"WILDCATS!"
"WILDCATS!"
"GET' CHA HEAD IN THE GAME!"
IN SCHOOL
Troy and Chad walked out of the lockers to their new lockers by Darbus' homeroom...
"Dude," Chad began "I am so glad we don't have that psycho this year!"
"DETENTION, MR. DANFORTH! Consider that your welcome back present." Ms. Darbus sneered.
"Yeah yea… thanks." Chad whined and turned to Troy who was trying to fix open his locker… he always seemed to have problems with that… "Whatever." Chad replied and walked over to Jason Cross to see what the clown had planned for senior prank.
TROY'S POV
My lockers will never open for me… I put the combination in right but, well I have bad luck every year I get a new locker. That's high school for you.
END POV
"Does every year start like this?" a familiar voice asked. Troy turned around to see his girlfriend of almost one and a half years, not counting the month off thanks to Sharpay. "How was practice?"
"You don't even want to hear about it, Gab." Troy replied, rolling his eyes.
"Wow… that bad on the first day?"
"YES!" Troy, half-yelled in his own world, naturally confusing Gabriella.
"No… my dad just gets to me sometimes…" He turned to her and smiled. "Why am I so lucky?" Gabriella looked at him, "what do you mean?" "Well you know I… wait, I said that out lou-" Troy cut off, feeling the heat rise in his cheeks and ears. But Gabriella spared him, realizing what he meant… "That was really sweet, Troy." She said giving him a hug.
The warning bell rang, announcing 5 minutes until homeroom…
"I have to go, Troy. I have the AP Calc. homeroom, room 109." She said reluctantly. But he gave her a world class smile. "Well that works out perfectly, cause I'm in the Spanish 401 homeroom… Room 111." He offered her his hand, which she accepted, as they walked to homeroom.
GABRIELLA'S POV
I look up at Troy and really appreciate this… everything.
It is the perfect start of the end… Wow, it really is.
"Troy?" I asked, interrupting the comfortable silence.
"What's up?" he asked, smiling down at me.
"This year is going to be different." I don't know what made me say it, maybe because I mean it and I can tell him exactly what's on my mind.
"What do you mean, Gab?" He asked, his face suddenly becoming serious
"No, it's nothing bad… I mean I want to make the most of it…. I'm going to make the most of it."
"I know you will, Gabriella… everything's going to be perfect because you deserve it." He smiled and kissed my on the top of my head...
