I'd Lie

"You are so completely in love with Troy!" Taylor said. "Just admit it!"

Gabriella closed her locker door and turned to look at Taylor. "I don't know what you're talking about," she said innocently.

"I think you do. I mean, I'm your best friend. I know when you're lying."

"Troy and I are just friends. I promise!" Gabby protested.

Just then, Troy came walking up.

"Hey guys." His smile alone made Gabby melt.

"Hey," Gabby stuttered. "What's up?"

"I was wondering if you guys wanted to grab a bite to eat," he said as he ran his fingers through his dirty-blonde hair.

"We'd love to!" Gabby said.

"But we can't," Taylor said. "We have to study, remember Gabi?"

"It's just studying. We can do that another night," Gabi said. "We're in," she said to Troy. "Where are we going?"

"I was thinking of going to that new place that serves those awesome burgers."

"Sounds good." Gabi walked off down the hall with Troy. Taylor sighed and had no choice but to follow them. They were supposed to be studying together for final exams coming up and if her mom knew she wasn't studying, she'd be in a lot of trouble.

Gabi was so happy to be eating with Troy. He made her laugh and smile all the time when he was around. She wished they were dating but she knew Troy well enough to know that he never wanted to fall in love and only believed in flings. That was so not Gabi. She believed in love and love at first sight and everything like that. Maybe they weren't meant to be together.

Afterwards, Taylor ran up to Gabi. "Are you still going to tell me that you're not in love with Troy? You didn't even ask if I minded going to dinner with Troy and you totally blew off our studying plans and that is so not like you. Studying and getting good grades is like the most important thing in your life."

"No they are not and for the last time, I do not like Troy in that way," Gabi said.

"Okay, whatever," Taylor said. "We better go get at least a little studying done."

Gabi followed Taylor silently to her car. The truth was, she was completely in love with Troy.

Sorry this is really, really short but please review and let me know what you thought of it!
