This story takes place after college. Gabi never met Troy, Chad, or anyone else in the gang, but only knew Taylor from work. Taylor and Chad are married. Zeke and Sharpay are married. Jason and Kelsi are dating, and Troy is single. Troy and Chad play for the NBA (I'm not a basketball person, so you can put whatever team you like, but I'll use the name Wildcats) Taylor work at a lab with Gabi, but Gabi is on break, she doesnt have to go to work for two months. Zeke owns his own cooking channel. Sharpay is in some acting thing, Jason works at a bank, and Kelsi is a player writer.
"Troy, truth or dare?" Taylor asked. It was Monday, and the gang (not Gabi) was at Troy's mansion playing truth or dare.
"Dare," Troy said.
"Okay... there's gonna be a girl on your doorstep on Wednesday, and she's gonna stay there for two weeks, and you're gonna boss her around," Taylor dared.
"You're kidding me right," Troy said.
"Do you think I am?" Taylor said with a raised eye brow, knowing that Troy was never actually bossy, and anyways, he needed a girlfriend, hoping that the girl that she would pick would get Troy a girlfriend
"Fine," Troy said
Tuesday Night, Chad's house"Hello?" Gabriella said answering the phone.
"Hey, girl!" Taylor said.
"Oh, hey Tay! What's up?" Gabi asked.
"Can you do me a favour?" Taylor asked.
"Sure...wait, are you pairing me up with another guy again?" Gabi asked.
"No," Taylor said, thinking, it is partly true.
"Okay, so shoot," Gabi said
"Okay, so I dared this guy, that you would show up on his doorstep and be his slave for two weeks," Taylor told her climbing into the king sized bed her and Chad shared.
"What! A slave! You're kidding me." Gabi exclaimed.
"Eh, sorry." Taylor appologizing.
"But..." Gabi started.
"Please..." Taylor begged.
"Taylor! You do notice that slaves are treated like trash you know!" Gabi told her friend.
"I know...but for me?..." Taylor continued.
Gabi didn't say anything.
"I'll pay you a hundred dollars..." Taylor said.
Gabi laughed.
"What?" Taylor asked.
"You're really desperate I see," Gabi told her.
"Yeah, so you'll do it?" Taylor said excitedly.
"Fine, but you owe me big time," Gabi said with a laugh.
"You got it! His place, tommorow morning, 101 Linton Gate. Okay?" Taylor said.
"Mm hmmm," Gabi said scribling the address on a sheet of paper.
"'Kay, thanks! 'Nite," Taylor said with a sigh of relief.
"Yeah, 'nite" Gabi responded.
"Oh yeah, I know how you hate basketball players and jocks, but he's a basketball player for some team. Bye," Taylor said quickly before Gabi could say another word.
"Ugh, I hate you Taylor!" Gabi said to herself.
"You get a girl for Troy to boss around yet?" Chad asked, getting into bed.
"Yep." Taylor said cheerfully.
"Who?" Chad asked.
"Gabriella," Taylor told her husband.
"hmmmm...not bad," Chad said.
"I know, anyways 'night!" Taylor said giving Chad a quick peck on the lips.
Early Wednesday MorningGabi is in her car driving to Troy's place. Troy was still sleeping. Gabi rings the doorbell. Troy falls off the bed.
"Huh?" Troy asked no one in particular.
Then he noticed that it was Wednesday. His slave was at the door. He walked sleepily to the front door, and opened the door. He squinted from the sunlight to look at the petite girl in front of him.
"Hi," Gabi said quietly.
"So you're the girl I'm suppose to boss around for two weeks?" Troy asked starring at Gabi.
Gabi frowned, but said,"Yeah."
"Come in," Troy said letting her go through the door.
"Nice place," she said.
"I guess," Troy said being his modest usual self, yawning.
"Uh, sorry about coming so early," Gabi appologized.
"Huh? Oh it's okay, I'll show you your room," Troy said leading the way.
"Sure," Gabi said.
"This is the den...the t.v.room...the living room..." Troy said moving through the coridor.
"Uh, just show me the rooms I need to know, it's hard to remember everything," Gabi said with a nervous chuckle.
Troy laughed and led Gabi to her room.
"Here," Troy said. "I'll leave you to unpack your stuff, my room is the one down the hall."
"Thanks," Gabi thanked.
"No problem, and you can do whatever you want, " Troy said leaving.
After Gabi finished unpacking, she went to find Troy to see what she was suppose to do. So she headed for his room. She knocked, but there was no response. So she opened the door a bit, and saw Troy sleeping, so she closed the door, and went back to her room, got her book and went around the house looking for the kitchen. She noticed that it was only 8:00am, and believed that Troy hadn't had his breakfast, so she made blueberry pancakes and had a few, and read her book while eating.
The doorbell rang, and she went to go get the door.
"Hey, Gabi!" Taylor said.
"Hey, Taylor!" Gabi greeted.
The gang went in, an Taylor introduced everyone to Gabi and Gabi to everyone.
"Guys, this is Gabi," Taylor introduce.
"Ooooooo, the girl Troy gets to boss," Chad said.
"Gabi, this is Chad, Sharpay, Zeke, Jason, and Kelsi," Taylor finished introduced after hitting Chad against the head.
"Where's Troy?" Chad asked.
"Upst---," Gabi started.
"Right here," Troy said.
"Hey, Chad. Ummmm...what's your name?" Troy asked Gabi.
"Gabriella," Gabi said.
"Gabi," Taylor corrected, giving Gabi a look.
"So Gabi-----ella, is there breakfast?" Troy asked.
"It's Gabi, Troy," Taylor told Troy.
Troy looked a Gabi-----ella, with a "What am I suppose to call you?" look.
"Fine, Gabi," Gabi said rolling her eyes.
"I could call you Gabriella if you want," Troy said being his modest self once again.
"It's okay. There's pancakes in the kitchen," Gabi infromed Troy.
"Ooooooooo, food! Let's go!" Chad said running to the kitchen like a little kid followed by the rest of the guys walking.
Gabi looked at Chad funnily as he ran to the kitchen.
"He's always like that, Gabi," Taylor told her laughing slightly.
"Uh huh..." Gabi said.
"How's the play writing going?" Taylor asked Kelsi.
"Not bad, but still working on it," Kelsi said.
"Can I see it?" Gabi asked quietly.
"Sure," Kelsi said as she dug into her bag for the draft copy then handing it over to Gabriella.
Everything was silent as Gabi read the draft, except for Gabi laughs.
"It's cute," Gabi said after reading the play. "Do you have an idea of what's going to happen next?"
"Not really, I'm kinda stuck," Kelsi admitted.
"Kelsi? Stuck! You're kidding me," Sharpay said with a laugh, which earned her a gentle poke from Kelsi.
"Why?" Kelsi asked.
"Well, I have an idea," Gabi replied.
"Shoot." Kelsi said.
"We'll since they both sing, maybe you could put the point that Zac goes to Vanessa and sings to her, and then she says yes, and they get together again, (idea from HSM1)" Gabi suggested.
Kelsi thought about it for a while, and said with a smile,"Luv your idea."
"What time is it?" Chad asked Taylor.
"10:00am," Taylor told him.
"Oh shoot, I have to meet Coach Dectonial in fifteen minutes. I'll see you guys later. Taylor, you coming?" Chad asked.
"Sure," Taylor said.
"See you at practise, Troy," Chad said, leaving
"I have a show, in half an hour, bye," Zeke said.
"Same here," Sharpay agreed.
"Have to meet some guy for a meeting," Jason said
"Gotta finish the play, thanks for helping, Gabi," Kelsi thanked.
And everyone left.
Troy had gone back to his room to change into his basketball jersy. He had a few pancakes, even though he hated blueberry, it was too good for him to notice. Gabi looked at him like he had never eaten before.
Troy noticed and said,"Basketball, so it's usually just a power bar and juice and stuff like that."
"Uh huh," Gabi said before going back to her book.
"By the way, these are good," Troy complimented.
"Thanks...," Gabi said, her eyes still glued on to the book.
The rest of the day went on, Troy had b-ball practise, and then hung out with the team. Taylor came over and her and Gabi talked for a bit, watched tv and stuff like that.
(I know that Troy isnt a journal/diary kind of guy, but he has one, that he sometimes writes in)
Wednesday July 10, 1659
The girl Taylor got as my slave is really nice. Her name is Gabriella, but Taylor calls her Gabi, which Gabi---ella told me it was okay to call her Gabi. The gang came and went. Gabi makes good pancakes, I wonder what's in it... I think Gabi's my age. Went to b-ball practise, hung out with the team, the usual.
Gabi's journal/diary:
Wednesday July 10, 1659
So I hate jocks cuz they're so showy and stuff, but Troy doesn't seem very showy, seems normal. But thats what they get you to think. Chad is like a little kid running for candy. Troy ate pancakes like he had never eaten before, which I guess does make sense. Basketball this, basketball that. Tay introduced me to her friends, Sharpay, a actress, Zeke, a cook, Kelsi, a play writer, Jason, a banker, Chad and Troy play basketball.The day was weird, but interesting.
