Troy Bolton Must Die Chapter One
"This is so good," Kelsi says, her mouth slightly full with the spinach salad in front of her. Troy Bolton, captain of the football and basketball teams, smiles and picks up his napkin, wiping her lip which had ranch on it. "You had ranch on your lip..." Kelsi blushes, "Oh..well, do I still have it?" Troy smiles, his blue eyes shining, "a little." "Want to...lick it off for me?" He chuckles, getting up and moving to the same booth chair as her and begins to play the game of what Gabriella Montez calls 'suck the face of your girlfriend, Troy Bolton'.
She sighs, wiping the counter down with a rag as it was almost closing time of the diner. Her shift is almost over. "Troy...I got to go, my mom's picking me up soon." He has a look of disappointment on his face, "oh..well I could take you you know?" Kelsi, a small, skinny brunette that has shoulder length curly hair, smiles and kisses his lips.
"I know, but my mom doesn't like you." "So? I'm not out for your mom's approval." She giggles, "I know. Now...you're trapping me in. Can I get out?" Gabriella see's Troy smile and trap the small brunette in further. She shakes her head and rolls her eyes, despite her outer appearence of dislike, she's had a crush on Troy Bolton since kindergarten.
Troy smiled at her, "So umm I'll see you tomorrow?" Kelsi giggled running her fingers through his hair, "You definetly will." and she kissed him. Gabriella sighed biting her lower lip, and sitting at the counter. Zoey Gomez walks over to her, "Hey." Gabriella smiled at her best friend since Preschool, "Hey Zoe, you almost done cleaning?"
Zoey rolled her eyes, "Yes Finally.. you almost ready to go." Gabriella nodded, her eyes going over to Troy and Kelsi. Zoey sighed, "Gabs, If you haven't had a chance with him by now, you won't be anytime soon." Gabriella sighed, "I know..I know.. but still."
Zoey sighs, "Go talk to him..." she whispers in encouragement. Gabriella looks at her, "I-I...I couldn't do that-" "Come on, you do it or I'll call him over and force you to-" "Zoey please, I-" "HEY! BOLTON!" Zoey literally makes herself fall down under the counter and Gabriella is blushing like a fool when Troy looks her way with a confused expression, she stammers for a while and just gives a small wave before sliding down the counter and hiding behind it.
She slides down beside Zoey, "Zoe.." Zoey shrugged, "Hey, it was worth a shot." Gabriella sighed, standing up and putting some plates into the sink. Zoey sighed, "Gabs..I'm your best friend..I'm just trying to help you out..I mean you've liked him since kindergarden."
Gabriella sighed, "You don't think I know that...Zoey, look at me, I'm.." she looked at herself disgusted. Zoey smiled, "You're beautiful Gabriella." Gabriella sighed looking at her through her glasses, "I just wanna go home."
Zoey sighs, "Okay, I'll see you at school then..?" Gabriella bites her lip and nods. Going to the back of the kitchen and grabbing her bookbag and her regular reading book: 50 Shades Of Grey, and walks to the beat up old VW bug from 1942 that's in the parking lot. She looks up at the windows of the diner, seeing Troy and Kelsi still wrestling in the booth as Kelsi is trying to escape.
She knows who Troy is, she's seen him here with Sharpay-the volleyball queen-and Taylor, the overly religious cheerleader. Kelsi's the slut of the group if anyone was to ask Gabriella her opinion.
Sighing, she unlocks her car door and gets in, turning on 106.7 FM as she starts the car and pulls away. She get's home and in bed about 11:30 each night because of late night traffic and also because she studies like a beast every night after work.
*Troy Bolton Must Die*
The next morning, her alarm rings at 5:00AM (seeing as she lives 10 blocks from East High; the most prestigious high school in New Mexico) and her shower is at 5:30AM, breakfast at 5:45-Gabriella Montez lives on a schedule. A predictable little schedule that her mother had written up and hung the wall since she was 10 years old
Gabriella walks into the East High Building, she meets up with Zoey at her locker, holding her book closer to her chest, "Hey Zoe, what's up?" Zoey turned around smirking at me, "Guess what." she grabbed my hand, and whispered, "Troy got caught." Gabriella's eyes went wide, "Caught with what?" Zoey rolled her eyes, "You know the game his been playing with Sharpay, Taylor, and Kelsi? well all three of them found out this morning." Gabriella gasped, "How did that happen?"
Zoey shrugs, "I don't know." "Then why are you telling me if you don't know?" She shrugs again, "it's just what I heard." Gabriella rolls her eyes, walking to her locker and putting her bookbag in and taking out her needed books for the school day. "Well, can you not listen to gossip? Because you're distracting me...and I have math class to focus on." "Oh of course, Gabriella Montez, the nerd of East High."
Gabriella pushes up her glasses and wrinkles her nose. " . You have theater don't you?" "Yes." "you're late." Zoey's eyes widen, "SHIT!" she runs passed Gabriella down the hall, Gabriella giggles to herself and walks to her math class. When she passes by an almost empty corridor.
She overhears the voice of Troy Bolton speaking, "look...Sharpay, I'm sorry but...those other girls, I'm just tutoring them; and they got this little crush on me. It was a pity kiss, you're the only one for me." Gabriella couldn't believe it, the fact that Sharpay bought it! The man should be an actor! Win a grammy! He has Gabriella's vote!
She bites her lip, turning quickly around when Sharpay flings her arms around Troy's neck. He smiles cooly, Gabriella just knows he's smiling that cool smile. "Well, I got to get to class...see you at lunch? Mickey D's?" Sharpay nods, "Yeah. See you baby." Troy winks sexily at her, turning on his heels. Sharpay turns and walks to her class, Gabriella bites her lip and begins to continue walking to her math class but is stopped by a teacher. "Miss Montez. Aren't you supposed to be in a class at this time?" "I..I.." "Detention." "WHAT?!" "You heard me..Go!" Gabriella sighed as the teacher wrote her a pink slip and gave it to her.
Gabriella walked into Detention, and saw Sharpay, Taylor, and Kelsi all sitting in the corner. she sighed taking a seat by them. "I can't believe we all fell for it." Taylor sighed, Sharpay bit her lip, "I'm sorry I fell for it." Kelsi gasped, "We need a plan. a plan to get revenge." Gabriella looked at them in the corner of her eye, Sharpay smiled, "We need to get a girl that he hasen't noticed in this school, and give her a complete make over."
Gabriella didn't like where this was going; trying to be invisible, she dug in her bag for her New Moon and opened it on the table, but it didn't work. Taylor ripped it from her grasp and all three girls smiled at her. "Hello...nerdy girl."
Gabriella sighed, biting her lip and looking at them through her lashes, "My name's Gabriella." "Pretty name." Kelsi says, "Now," she looks at the other girls then back at Gabriella, "think she'll do?" "I think she's perfect!" Sharpay yells, Taylor screeches in agreement. Kelsi smirks. "Well then, the make over-which is phase one-starts at dawn tomorrow, since it's Saturday."
Gabriella sighed, "look, don't I have a say so in this." all three girls said in unison, "No." Gabriella sighed, "Fine.. I will only do it if my friend Zoey comes along." All the girls nod, "Alright..we'll start tomorrow.." "Meets us at this address." Taylor gave her the street address on a piece of paper. Gabriella sighed, "Fine..I'll be there." "Perfect."
Let the games begin.
