Summary: At such a young age, 17 year old Gabriella Montez is America's sex symbol. She sings, dances and acts. Plus she is a model for Victoria Secret. Her brother, Kellin, is the lead singer of the band Sleeping with Sirens. Gabriella is about to enroll into East High School. How will the students react to this? Will everyone treat her like a normal student?
"GABI! GET DOWN HERE! KELLIN IS HERE!" Maria Montez yelled through the house. Gabriella had jumped out of her bed and ran towards the stairs.
"Kellin!" She screamed with excitement. She flew down the stairs into her brothers arms. Kellin chucked and hugged is little sister tightly. Kellin has been on tour this whole time for Warped. The last tour location was right here in Albuquerque. You see, Kellin is the lead singer of Sleeping with Sirens. Maria and Greg Montez looked at their children hug each other. They were so proud of how successful they became at such a young age.
"I missed you so much Lala." Kellin said into Gabriella's ear. Gabriella pulled back from her brother and looked up at him.
"I missed you too." she looked behind him and saw his wife. "KATE!" she let go of her brother and ran to his pregnant wife. She hugged her carefully. Katelynne walked over to Kellin and held onto his arm and put her hand on her stomach.
"I feel like I'm going to pop anytime soon." she chuckled. They all made their way over the couch and sat down. Gabriella bounced in her seat. She couldn't wait to tell her brother and his wife the news.
"Gabs, whats gotten into you?" Katelynne asked. Gabriella smiled at her.
"Mom and Dad are letting me go to a public school." she said with excitement.
"WHAT?!" Kellin exclaimed. He looked at his parents. "You can't be serious about this?"
"What's wrong?" Gabriella asked. Kellin looked at her.
"Do you know what would happen to you? You'll get hurt! You won't have true friends. You'll be lonely!" he said to her.
"Some people don't care that I'm famous, Kellin." she growled.
"Gabriella,you're a VS model. You've been featured on so many songs and have been in so many movies. You're America's sex symbol for goodness sake! All those horny teenage boys will be all over you." he turned to his parents. "Dad, she'll get raped."
"No I won't!" she said. She spent months convincing her parents that school was safe. Especially East High.
"Kellin, calm down. El has convinced us that she will be safe at East High. Sharpay goes there. You remember her." Greg said. Sharpay Evans knew Gabriella through her father. They have been best friends ever since they met.
"Ah! How could I forget her. She wouldn't leave me alone the first time I met her." Kellin said. Gabriella giggled along with Katelynne. Sharpay had the biggest crush on Kellin. When they first met, she couldn't believe that Kellin was Gabriella's brother since he goes by Kellin Quinn.
"Kells, I'll be fine. You know how crazy Shar is. She'll bite off all the guys heads if they hurt me." she said to him.
"Fine but if I hear something bad happens to you, I'm coming to that school and beating everyone up." he said. Gabriella laughed. "When do you start?" he asked.
"Tomorrow." she said. He nodded and looked at Katelynne who was falling asleep.
"I think I need to get this one back to the hotel." he said. They nodded and said their goodbyes.
"You're going to love it here!" Sharpay said to Gabriella. Today was Gabriella's first day and Sharpay was showing her around. Gabriella was amazed. She looked all the red and white. This school was big on school spirit. They passed by a showcase that had all the trophies and pictures of the different teams at East High.
"Wow." she said to herself. Sharpay had kept walking but turned around and notice Gabriella was not next to her.
"Gabs?" she said as she approached her. Gabriella looked at her.
"This school is marvelous." she said. Sharpay chuckled.
"Wait until you meet—Oh hey Troy." she said with a smile on her face. Gabriella continued to look at the awards.
"Hey Sharpay. Who's the chick?" he said. At this, Gabriella turned around with a smile on her face.
"I'm Ga-"
"Gabriella Montez!" he exclaimed. He was so shocked. Gabriella chuckled.
"Yup. That's me." she said.
"I'm Bolton Troy." he said. He then realized what he said and groaned. "Troy. Troy Bolton."
Gabriella giggled. "It's nice to meet you, Troy." Just then Ryan ran up to Sharpay.
"Shar, we have a major problem! Darbus is changing the play." he said to her. Ryan already knew Gabriella.
"What?! Gabs, I gotta go. I'm sure Troy would love to finish the tour of the school for you." she said and ran off with Ryan. Troy cleared his throat.
"Well, I can show you where your classes are. May I see your schedule?" he said. Gabriella handed him her schedule. He looked at it and smiled.
"We have all our classes together. Even free period." he told her. He looked down at her and blue met brown. They smiled at each other.
"That's great." she said. He looked at the clock in the hallway and saw that they had 30 minutes to kill.
"I wanna show you something." he grabbed her hand and led her to the rooftop garden. When they got there, Gabriella looked around in awe. It was beautiful. She wandered around and turned around to him.
"It's beautiful up here." she said.
"I come up here to get away from all the craziness." he says as he stuffs his hands in his pockets. "No one knows about it."
"Well I'm glad you shared it with me." she told him. "So tell me about yourself." she said. They both sat down on a bench.
"Well I have a little brother and an older sister. I'm captain of the basketball team. My dad is the coach here. I'm 6'1. I love rock music. I can sing and play piano and guitar. I'm single and yeah." he said. "What about you?"
"I'm single. I speak fluent Spanish. I have an older brother. I love watching basketball. I play guitar. I love science and math. I love all types of music but mainly rock and I think that's all." she said.
"I didn't know you had a brother." he said. She nodded and looked down at her Michael Kors watch.
"I think the bell is going to ring soon." she said. They both got up and headed towards homeroom. On the way Gaabriella and Troy got to know more about each other. Once they reached homeroom, Troy took his seat and Gabriella spotted an empty seat in the back at sat in it. She pulled out her phone and started playing Ruzzle. The bell rang and Gabriella put her phone away.
"Welcome children." Ms. Darbus said. She looked down at her desk and noticed a lot. "Ah! I see we have a new student with us today. Miss Gabriella Montez will you please stand." she said. Gabriella stood up and all eyes were on her. She waved at the class and sat down. "Welcome to East High, dear. There are no announcements for today so you may talk among yourselves." she said. The class was still staring at Gabriella. Gabriella tried not to notice as she pulled out her phone to play another round of Ruzzle.
"Okay. You guys can stop staring at her. Geez." Sharpay snapped. The class then broke out into loud talking. Most were talking about Gabriella. Sharpay walked over to her.
"Yes!" Gabriella exclaimed in excitement. Sharpay looked at her in an odd way. "I just beat Kellin in Ruzzle." she said to her.
"You know one of these days, someone is going to find out." Sharpay said.
"Not if someone keeps her mouth shut." she said with a pointed look at Sharpay. Sharpay put her hands up in defeat.
"Relax G. I won't tell a soul." the blond said. Troy then made is way over towards them with a boy right behind him.
"Hey Gabriella. This is my best friend Chad." he said. Gabriella looked at them both.
"Nice to meet you Chad." she said with a smile. Chad waved at her. He then nudged Troy.
"Dude, you have a voice. You ask her." Troy said to him. Chad shook his head no and gave Troy a look.
"Ugh. Fine. Gabriella, Chad wants to know if he can take a picture with you." he said. Gabriella giggled.
"First, please call me Gabi or Ella. Anything but my full name. Two, I would love to take a picture with Chad, but he has to talk." she smirked.
"I can talk. I just didn't want to embarrass myself in front of you." Chad said. Gabriella got up and walked over to him. He pulled out his iPhone and handed it to Troy to take the picture. Gabriella got on her tippy toes and kissed Chad on the cheek which caused him to put on a goofy grin. Troy snapped the picture and chuckled.
"Thanks Gabi." Chad said. He took his phone from Troy and upload it to Instagram.
"No problemo!" she said with a smile. Gabriella got a text from her brother.
'Have a good first day Lala3 Tell Shar I said hi :)'
Gabriella smiled at the text and texted him back. She turned to Sharpay.
"My brother says hi, Shar." she said with a smile. Sharpay blushed and clapped her hands in excitement. "Please don't tell me you still like him?"
"You're brother is HOT!" she said.
"You have a brother Gabs?" Chad asked. "You never mentioned it in any of your interviews." He blushed at his last statement.
"You're adorable, Chad." she said avoiding his question. This seemed to make him forget all about his question. The bell rang and they all gathered their stuff to leave.
"Want me to walk you to class, El?" Sharpay asked. Gabriella shook her head.
"Troy and I have all the same classes, so he's walking me." she told her. Sharpay nodded and kissed her on the cheek.
"Ready to go?" Troy asked.
"Ready as I'll ever be." she giggled and they both walked off to their next class.
