Dear Diary. ATS R&R

Monday, 7th July. New School. First day of term.

Dear Diary,

Hey Gabriella Montez here, starting up a new diary. I thought new home, new diary right? So here is what happened to me today.

I stood outside the school and looked around, "so this will be my new school" I thought to myself.

"Doesn't look bad" I approved. I suppose I'm quite smart, but I'm definitely not geeky. I'm told I look quite nice, with long wavy brown hair, and chocolate brown eyes. I opened the door shyly and walked into the new building that was my school.

As I walked inside the school into the hallway. It was filled with students, getting books out of their lockers and chatting to friends. Suddenly a girl with gorgeous long blonde hair and big brown eyes, came up to me.

"Hello?" I said wondering who she was, and holding out my hand for the blonde haired girl to shake.

"Hey, I'm Sharpay!" She smiled, ignoring my hand. "You must be new here, or am I just really bad at noticing people?!" Sharpay laughed, making a joke.

"Yeah, I am new" I grinned too, "I'm Gabriella by the way." I giggled and remembered to put my hand down.

"Nice to meet you Gabriella!" Sharpay gushed. "I just know we're going to be great friends!" and gave me a hug.

"You too!" I said returning the hug.

"Oh My Jonas!" She said looking at the school clock. "I need to go meet my boyfriend!"

"Umm. First can you tell me Where Mrs Darbus' class is"

"It's right there" Sharpay answered pointing to a classroom right behind us.

"Oh, right thanks."

Sharpay gave me one last smile and walked off.

Still in the hallway.

I turned around, but suddenly walked into someone and dropped everything!

"Oh no!" I cried out.

"I'm so sorry." The person said.

It was a guy. He had spilt his orange juice down me. We both bent down to pick up our stuff. He was cute, he had sort of sandy brown hair and the most gorgeous bright blue eyes I had ever seen.

"No, I'm sorry it was my fault!" I blushed embarrassed.

"Let's just say it was both our faults. I'm Troy Bolton" He held out his hand.

"And I'm Gabriella Montez" As I shook it I felt a spark run through me but shook it off , Troy would never go for someone like me.

"It's really good to meet you Gabriella."

"You too Troy. Oh and call me Gabby everyone does!"

"OK, Gabby?"

"Yes?"

"You can let go of my hand now" He said and laughed.

"Oh right sorry." I blushed even harder. "I better go to the toilet to try and get this orange juice off of my shirt."

"I'm sorry again" He said as he walked off.

"Me too!" I called after him.

When I turned back to my locker a girl approached me .

"Were you just talking to Troy Bolton?" I heard a girl ask.

"Yeah I was, why?"

"He's just like the hottest guy in school, don't forget to mention Sharpay Evans' boyfriend."

"Oh, I suppose he's kind of cute, if you like that sort of look." I said meaning that's the look I go for.

"So you don't like gorgeous, great athletic skills and his gorgeous body? Oh, I'm Taylor McKesie by the way." She said I looked up and saw she had dark coloured skin, dark brown hair and deep, brown eyes.

"Hi Taylor, I'm Gabriella Montez, but call me Gabby."

"Cool, you better go to the toilet to clean yourself up" she said noticing the orange stain on my light pink shirt.

"Umm right, where is the toilet?"

"Here I'll take you."

"Thank you so much" I said gratefully.

"Not a problem, what are friends for?" Taylor smiled.

It turns out that we couldn't get the stain out but Taylor let me borrow her cardigan, it was lucky that none of my teachers made me take off the cardigan, during lessons.

But on the plus side I already had at least three friends and I could tell we were all going to be close.

On the negative side I embarrassed myself twice in front of the apparently hottest guy in school!

Uhh it was so like me. I got lost like four times. I saw Sharpay and Troy making out at the school gate at lunch I was about to walk up to see them, but thought it would be a bit awkward with me there so decided to go find Taylor instead. After about 20 minutes of looking I found Taylor in the library.

As I walked into the library I found Taylor sitting at a table on the far side.

"Hey Taylor" I said taking a seat at her table.

"Huh, what?" She replied, looking around, she had obviously been caught up in her book. "Oh, sorry, hi Gabby!"

"Hey again" I giggled "Sorry if I distracted you."

"No, don't it's fine, really" She laughed "Sometimes when I read, I just sort of tune out."

"Me too!" I joined in laughing, "Can I get your phone number? Not in a flirtatious way or anything!" I Joked

"Of course!" She said as we swapped numbers.

"Thanks, so how are you?"

"I'm great thanks you?"

"I'm good I suppose, I forgot to mention that I met Sharpay this morning."

"Urgh, did she say anything mean."

"No, she was actually really nice to me, she said that we are going to be great friends or something?"

"That doesn't sound like her." Taylor said kind of mean-ly.

I was about to tell her that the comment she just made sounded like a bit bitchy but the bell rang signalling us to get to our next class. I was glad that the bell rang, I didn't want to lose a friend by saying something stupid the first day I met her.

After School.

I waited by the gate for Taylor to give her back her cardigan.

"Guess Who" said a familiar voice covering my eyes so I couldn't see who it was.

"Umm" I said joking around, I knew it was Troy but just to anoy him I said "Joe Jonas?"

"Ex-cuse me?" He said pretending to be upset.

"Hey Troy!"

"Hey Gabby! See I knew that you knew that I knew that you knew it was me!"

"What the?" I said trying to work out what he just said "I'm confused you make my head hurt!"

"You have to be a total mastermind to know what I just said."

"Fine then what did you say?"

"I said that I knew that you the that I know that... SHUT UP!"

"Great comeback!" I retorted, giggling.

He stuck his tongue out at me and laughed too.

"Hey Gabriella, Hey baby" I heard Sharpay say walking up to us.

"Hey Sharpay" I said still giggling.

"Hey Babes!"

"Who are you waiting for Gabriella?" Sharpay asked.

"Taylor McKessie. I need to give her back this cardigan."

"Sorry again" Troy said.

"Oh I ran into her before my last class and she told me she was going to be late and that you were just to walk without her." Sharpay said smiling sweetly.

"I suppose I'll give her this back tomorrow then." I said.

"Where abouts do you live Gabby?" Troy asked me.

"438 Apple Drive." I replied giving them my address.

"That's in my direction, walk you home?" Troy offered

"Sure!" I accepted

"OK, I wanted to get home quickly anyway, and I knew I wouldn't if I was walking you," she giggled "so.."

"OK see you later then Shar." Troy said

"Bye Sharpay."

"Bye Gabriella, Troy aren't you forgetting something?"

"Oh right sorry." Troy said not very apologetically and kissed Sharpay goodbye.

"Bye babe" Sharpay said as she walked off in the other direction, catching up with one of her other friends.

Troy and I started walking as an uncomfterble silence fell.

"So.." I said.

"So.." He said at the exact same time as me. We both laughed a little too hard, maybe it was just to fill the silence..

"I didn't know that you knew Shar!" He said.

"Well yeah I met her this morning just before I met you, and she said she was going to meet her boyfriend, well you "I answered.

There was a bit of silence. It was a bit awkward really though I don't know why.

"So why are you considered the most popular guy in school?" I finally asked.

"Well it's probably because of my fantastic basketball skills and amazing good looks." He answered joking

"Don't forget your modesty!"

We both laughed at my small joke.

"That was mean" He said as he played being upset.

"You and your huge ego had it coming!" I replied simply

"Hey! George isn't huge he's just big!"

We both couldn't stop laughing at how wrong that sounded. (Yes we are both very immature.) But we both got weird stares and dirty looks off strangers, although, when I was with Troy I just didn't care.

Then, we got to my house.

"So, this is it."

"OK so I suppose I'll see you at school tomorrow?"

"Yeah, bye" I said as I was unlocking my door.

"Bye Gabs."

I opened the door. "Gabs?"

"I thought I would give you a new nickname." He smiled showing a lot of his white teeth.

"OK bye" I said again as I walked in and closed the door behind me. I leaned against it and sort of fell on to the floor.

Why did I feel disappointed?

Later that night. I phoned Taylor.

"Hey Taylor!" I said.

"Oh, hello Gabriella," she replied flatly.

"Is anything wrong?" I asked.

"No it's just that I thought we were going to walk home together, so you could give me back the cardigan?"

"But Sharpay said,"

Taylor interrupted. "Never listen to Sharpay she's a skinny little bitch."

"Taylor she's my friend!" I defended her.

I heard Taylor sigh. "Sorry Gabby but I don't think she is, she's a backstabber."

"It's OK, you have your opinion of her and I have mine."

I heard someone shouting Taylor in the background.

"I'll let you go, and I'll give you back your cardigan tomorrow at school right?"

"Yeah bye" Taylor said and hung up before I had the chance to say bye.

Diary, do you think Sharpay sounds like a backstabbing bitch? I think she seemed quite nice. Do you think she did something to Taylor, or does Taylor just not like her because she's popular? Or maybe Taylor is right and Sharpay is a bitch and is going to do something to me? Do I sound paranoid? Oh I don't know.

I'm going to try to get some sleep now. Write in you tomorrow. Gabby. x
