This is my first story with chapters (at least here on fan-fic) and I hope that you guys you'll like it as much as you liked my one-shots... I have no idea how many chapters will be, that actually depends on the reviews I'll get... So please let me know what do you think...
I do not own any HSM, ONLY the plot for this story...
3 YEARS AGO...
Gabriella Montez was in her room in Stanford... It was her sophomore year in college and she and her boyfriend, Troy Bolton were still going strong... Every day she as more convinced that Troy was the one for her... The love of her life...
Gabriella finshed fixing her hair and she flashed a smile to herself in the mirror... She was planning on going to Berkeley... Troy had a big game and she wanted to be there to suport him, and of course spend some alone time with him afterwards... She only got to see him in weekends and she wasn't planning on missing her chance on seeing him! She missed him too much!
Gabriella grabbed her purse and headed to the door when she suddenly heard her cell phone ringing, the special ring tone she had for Troy. She smiled when she saw his photo on the scree of the phone and she pressed the button putting the phone on her ear
"Hello?"
"Hey Brie... How are you?"
Just from the tone of his voice Gabriella could tell that there was something wrong with him... He sounded weird...
"I'm good... Troy? Are you alright? You sound weird"
"Yeah... I'm alright... It's just... Would you mind if I asked you not to come today? I have a big test on Monday so I'm going to need all the time I have after the game to study... I kind of left it at the last minute, with the basketball practices and all...
Gabriella sighed at what he said. She couldn't believe that she wasn't going to see him for another week! This was insane! But if he said that he had studying to do, then he had studying to do... If anyone knew the importance of studying was Gabriella. And she knew that after everything Troy has been toget his scolarship, he was working hard to prove to everyone that he was worth it
"So I guess I have to wait until next weekend?"
"Baby I know... I hate it too... But you have to understand... This is important! It's a big test!"
"I know you know! I mean... I know that you hate it too... But what to do...? Studying is important! Anyway... Call me later? Love you!"
"Of course honey! I'll call you when I get back! Love you too!"
Gabriella hang up and sighed. She threw her cell phone on the bed and then laid down next to it staring at the ceiling... She's been waiting for the weekend so she could finally see him, the whole week... And now she wasn't going to. Gabriella got up and headed to her desk, shesat down, opened her laptop and started working on an assignment she had about Property Law... When she suddenly snapped... Why not go to Berkeley and surprise Troy? She could help him with his studying like she did in high school and they would get to spend some time together! That way their weekend wouldn't be wasted!
At the thought she smiled. Gabriella quickly turned her laptop off and got up taking her purse. She walked out of her dorm room and left campus, after she took a taxi and told them where to take her. The game was long over so she guessed that Troy would be at his dorm room, studying. She paid the taxi driver and got out of the cab when they got there. She looked at the building in front of her and she sighed before she got in and started climbing the stairs.
The room was at the fourth floor but they didn't have an elevator, so she had to climb the stairs to get there. When she got on the third floor she met with one of Troy's team mates. Gabriella greeted him and asked if he knew where Troy was.
"Ummm... Yes... He is at his room... But he is... busy... I wouldn't go there if I were you"
Gabriella shook her head smiling and shrugged her shoulders at the boy
"Thank you but I think that I'll take my chances"
She said before she started climbing the stairs again, heading to Troy's floor. When she got there she made her way towards the corridor Troy's room was situated at. She got there and she smiled as she stood outside his door... She couldn't wait to see him! She had missed him so much! Even if it as just one week since she last saw him... And they were talking on the phone three times a day... It still wasn't the same... She just wanted to hug him and kiss him, and feel him close to her. Just being in his arms, forgetting everything else... And that thought only, it was totally worth the trip
Gabriella knocked on the door but without aiting any answer she walked in the room, a wide smile spreading across her lips. But what she saw made the smile disappear and her heart break into a million pieces... Here he was... Her first love, her ONLY love, the first boy she ever trusted enough... Here he was having sex with someone else... Gabriella couldn't suppress her exclamation of surprise and pain at the sight
Troy suddenly jumped up when he heard Gabriella's voice and he looked at her horrified... The reason he had told her not to come was that his friends were insisting that he was wipped... And to prove them wrong he decided to accept their invitation and go to a party with them that night... And of course with Gabriella visiting him he couldn't do that, so he had to lie to her and ask her not to come... Not that he wanted it... He had missed her so much, it's been a week since he last saw her. But he had to prove them wrong! Sure, he loved Gabriella but he wasn't wipped! That was insane
So he went... One thing led to another, he had more beers than he could take and he ended up in his room with some random girl that he met there and has been throwing herself at him the whole night. He didn't know what he was doing... The alcohol was blurring his mind, and without realizing he found himself having sex with her... But when he heard Gabriella's voice... He suddenly snapped. He froze and stared at her horrified... Just the look she had in her face... A mixture of shock and pain and desperation... It made him wanting to die for doing this to her...
"Baby... I-I'm sorry... I can explain..." he heard himself saying... He really wanted to explain to her... He didn't want to hurt her. She was the one, the only one for him!!!
"There's nothing to explain Troy... The sight gives me a pretty good idea of what's going on" Gabriella said her voice cracking as she could feel the tears building up in her eyes, making her sight blur... "At least you didn't used the 'it's not what you think' line... I don't want to see you, EVER AGAIN!" and with that she left the room running, slamming the door behind her, the tears falling freely down her cheeks now... Her heart was breaking and she felt that she wanted to die... She never thought that Troy would cause her so much pain... She never thought that he would be the one to do this... He told her that he loved her! He had given him everything! All her love, her trust, her faith... And he betrayed her in the worst way possible... She thought that she was living in a fairytale since she met him and they became a couple. But her fairytale had gone bad...

-------------------------------------------------------
Gabriella snapped out of her thoughts at the memory of that night. She looked down at the invitation that she received that morning...She didn't know why that paper brought that back... She had left this behind three years ago and she had moved on with her life... She graduated from Stanford with honors and she was immediately hired by one of the biggest Law firms in California... Plus she had gotten engaged a few months ago... Her life was simply perfect... So why did that invitation made her feel that way? She sighed and took the phone's speaker from her office and put it in her ear, dialing a number
"Yes... hi... I would like to get a ticket for a flight to Albuquerque New Mexico? Yes... Next week... Umm no... Just aller..."
Gabriella hang up and leaned back on her leather chair... Taylor had called her a few days ago upset. Something that surprised her since Taylor was almost never upset... Ok, besides the day of her wedding with Chad a year ago... That was the first time Gabriella had met with Troy after what happened... And she couldn't avoid that, since she was the maid of honor and he was the best man. But she left soon after the ceremony was over because she had a plane to catch...
Her friend had informed her that after a decision of the mayor, East High was closing down and it was going to get demolished and all the students would get transfered at West High... People would lose their jobs and the school wouldn't exist anymore... And Gabriella couldn't let that happen... She was going there to see what she could do to help... Just in time for the five years reunion... She had a weird feeling about this...
