Chapter One

"Hey, Troy wake up! We have to go to school!"

Troy woke up, rubbing his eyes before he could stretch his arms.

"Hey come on, you're slow for a basketball captain."

"Aghh." Troy groaned once he heard the word 'captain'. Once course he was the captain of the basketball team, but he doesn't like showing of as the captain who led the school to championships. He just wants to be himself without being named as one of the popular people in school. Troy finally opened his eyes to his best friend.

"Chad, how did you get into my house?"

"I have a spare key! DUH!"

"I see but how, I didn't give you one."

"Ohhh. I got one made because you told me quote "Me Casa Es Su Casa" unquote"

"Umm yeah so." Said Troy while finding something to wear.

"Well that means my house is your house (not Chad's, Troy's house). So when you said that I had to find a way into 'my house.' I borrowed your keys the day when we had that party here, and you wanted me to buy food."

Troy nodded as he remembered that day. "Umm. Yeah ok, never mind. We have to go to school."

Chad interrupted before he could say anything else. "About that. I need a ride."

"Why, you have your own car." a still tired Troy.

"Yea, I do its just that it's getting oil changed right now. I forgot to change it during the weekend. And my dad borrowed it one of those days and was mad at me when he couldn't move to another lane, since the engine broke down. So right now its at the shop."

"Oh wow Chad. How can you be so stupid?" said Troy while tapping on Chad's shoulder and shaking his head.

"Eyy, I forgot ok!" As the two headed out into Troy's truck as fast as they can because they were already late.

There wasn't silence in the car because they were listening to songs on the radio. As Troy's truck was about to turn on the intersection to the student parking, a car did the same. They almost crashed into each other, but the car was honking at him. Troy madly honked back.

"Nobody honks at Troy Bolton, the basketball captain!" yelled Chad.

The car just honked again. Chad opened his door but was surprised by Troy.

"I'll go." as Troy opened his door. Chad didn't care what he said; he went with him to talk to the person.

The two girls in the car was checking if they were both safe. Until they saw two boys from the truck approaching their car.

"Do you want me to go and talk to them or should we both." said Christina (in passenger seat) her best friend.

"Umm lets both go." Said Gabriella.

Troy and Chad walked to the car as they both saw two beautiful girls come out of it.

Chad whispered "Wow, who knew we would bump into two gorgeous girls."

Troy smiled.

"What made you think it's your turn to turn left before me." Said Gabriella.

Troy smiled even more when he saw the cute brunette talked.

"Well, if you haven't notice. This is Troy Bolton. The basketball captain who led this school to championships. He.." Chad said as he pointed to Troy.

"Blah, Blah, Blah! He's just the captain of the basketball team." Yelled Christina. "A really cute one" she whispered to Gabriella.

"He's not just the basketball captain. He rules this school. Everyone knows him; everyone would always put him before anyone else. If you would've let me finished the story then you would've known."

"Well, excuse us. We didn't know!" shouted Christina.

"How would you not know Troy?"

"We're new! We just moved from California!" a still yelling Christina said.

During Christina's and Chad's fight Troy just starred at Gabriella and Gabriella did the same. But the two lovebirds that didn't know each other (well Gabriella knows about Troy since her best friend was fighting with Troy's best friend about him) didn't notice that the fight ended.

"Hello, Gabi" waved her hand in front of Gabriella's face.

"Huh?" was the only think Gabi said since she was confused and love struck from a handsome boy.

"Troy! Troy!" as Chad said this he was nudging Troy's shoulder.

"Umm, never mind. We should just hurry up since we are already late for class. You know how Ms. Darbus is when she sees someone late for her class."

"Fine! But this isn't over yet!" pointing at Gabriella and Christina. Chad and Troy walked back to Troy's car and went to find a parking spot.

"That afro/curly boy is making me want to go back in time and not think about moving here with you!" said Christina while they both got into the car.

"Don't say that. I wanted you to move here with me. You're my best friend. I wouldn't do things without you. And what are the odds of bumping into them again."

"You didn't hear his curly friend? They're both basketball players. Of course we'll see them again. They're popular! It's basketball season too, so there would be so many pep rallies for them!" Christina said while she was pointing at an empty parking spot.

Meanwhile. Chad and Troy walked into Ms. Darbus' classroom and already knew they were both going to get a lecture of being late to class.

"Troy. Chad. You both are late again. Next time you come late you guys are going to get suspension after school. And I know you guys are basketball players, so you better come here before the late bell rings or else you guys won't be playing in the basketball games." Said Ms. Darbus.

One response from both of them was a simple groan. The two basketball players sat at their assigned seats which were by their basketball friends.

Gabriella and Christina walked into the school looking for a sign saying 'Office.' As they found the office, Mr. Matsui (forgot his name) told them about the school, gave them their schedules, and a school map. As he finished his little speech, he let the two new students go to their classes.

"Please, let us have the same classes!" begged Christina.

"Ready. 1, 2, 3, lets us have the same classes" they both said at the same time.

They had the same classes except 2. The first class with Ms. Darbus (Christina didn't have) and Mr.Theisen (Christina didn't have since she wasn't that smart in math).

"Haha!" laughing Christina. "You got a class with the two losers we almost crashed into today."

"What! How do you know?"

"Remember, that cute one said it to the curly guy."

"Oh, yeah. You think he's cute too! Wow the Cali Girls love the famous Troy Bolton!"

"Haha, who said that I love him!?"

Gabi was red and quiet then ever.

"Wow! I knew it by the look in your eyes. And when you both starred at each other for quite a while. I think you got the hots for him. And I bet you're stoked to go to Ms. Darbus class!"

"Pshh. Whatever. Let's get to class my friend!"

"Yes, we shall!" as Christina grabbed her hand and led Gabi to her first class. They approached the door.

"So where's you locker?" asked Gabi

"191 yours?" replied Christina.

"193!"

"Cool, ok I guess I'll see you in 2nd period!" Christina said.

Chad wasn't paying attention but he was looking around. As he was doing that he looked at the classroom door and saw the two girls they bumped into the morning.

"Pstt. Troy look at the door. The girl you were drooling over is here."

That caught Troy's attention and looked at the door. He saw Gabriella and smiled at her as she did the same. He saw Christina hugging Gabriella before she walked to her class. Gabriella knocked on the door and walked to Ms. Darbus and gave her a note.

"Class, we have a new student. Her name is Gabriella Montez. You can take a seat behind Taylor McKessie." As Ms. Darbus said that Taylor rose her hand so Gabriella can find her seat.

"Hey, I'm Taylor."

"Hey, I'm Gabriella."

"Okay, here's a heads up. You see Sharpay over there (pointing to the blonde wearing pink with a lot of glitter) she is a drama queen. Her brother sitting behind her is nothing like his sister. He has always been in her shadow for no one knows how long. She still wants to be the 'Prima Girl' since Troy (pointing to Troy) has been 'Primo Boy'. She has a huge crush on him. He has dated every girl except me, and you, but I guess he is trying to find the right one. And those are his friends; they all play basketball (pointing to Troy's friends plus curly) and I am on the scholastic decathlon team which we haven't won first yet. But with the power and will we'll get there." Taylor said.

"Ohh thanks."

After a few minutes of Troy and Gabriella starring, Taylor caught on. This time instead of them whispering Taylor wrote her a note.

Gabriella/Gabi,

I see you're starring at Mr. Hotshot over there and apparently he is starring at you too. I'm not saying you're a bad person and you look ugly, but this is weird. Troy never starred at a new girl for that long. Do you like him? Oh is it ok if I can call you Gabi?

Taylor

Gabriella took the letter and wrote back to her.

Tay, Is it ok if I can call you that?

Yeah, its fine with me. My friends call me Gabi and I consider you as one. Umm, I don't know. He's cute. I just met him and I don't know if I like him. It's hard to tell, but again he's cute!

Gabi

Taylor read it and just nodded at her. The bell rang and Taylor waited for Gabi.

"Gabi, where's your locker?"

"193 yours?"

"198. At least we're still close."

"Yup! When we go to our lockers I'll introduce you to my best friend."

"Okay!" Taylor replied as she went to her own locker.

Gabriella reached her locker and opened it.

"Hey!" said a voice she heard a little while ago.

"Hi."

"So, we haven't introduced ourselves. I'm Troy. And you are?

"Gabriella."

"That's a cute name for a beautiful girl like you."

Gabriella smiled with her red cheeks.

"Hey Captain!" yelled Chad behind Gabriella. "Whose this?" (Didn't know it was Gabriella because Chad's locker was behind her.

"Gabriella."

"Wait, the one that almost crashed into us?" Troy nodded. "So where's your friend that was yelling at me. Is she scared that we'll get you guys back?" Chad whined in front of Gabriella's face.

"She's right here curly!" As Christina said this Chad turned around and just faked a smile.

"Thanks for the nickname!" Chad said sarcastically.

"No problem! So Gabi, how's class?"

"It's alright. Ms.Darbus talks too much. Also I got a friend."

"Yupp, and its me!" Taylor said.

"Hi, I'm Christina."

"I'm Taylor"

"And I'm Chad!" in a girly voice. Troy couldn't help but laugh.

"And I'm Troy; I'm not a girl unlike Chad." Troy smiled.

Everyone laughed but it took a while for Chad to notice.

The bell rang and everyone went to their second class which was gym. The girls went to the locker room and went to change as did for the boys. Everyone came out. Christina and Gabriella wore shorts (liked the one Gabriella wore for HSM2 promotionals)

"Dammm! I would like to tap that!" said Johnny the footballer said.

As he said that Gabi and Christina faced him and gave him a little wink. (They heard him) Johnny nodded at them and the boys surrounded the new girls.

"Argg! The new girls are getting all the guys attention! Especially my Troy!" said Sharpay. "Girls! Ok, we have to do something to the new girls because their. Their. New! They can't get the attention from the guys we all worked on from freshman year! (now they are juniors) Since we are playing dodge ball we all have to hit them."

The girls agreed, even though some of the cheerleaders have bad aim (not saying cheerleaders do just the ones in this story), they still are going to try.

A whistle was heard throughout the gym.

"I see we have new girls in this class." Coach Bolton said (also gym teacher)

"Yeah. I'm Christina"

"I'm Gabriella. We're from California!"

"That's why you girls are so hot!" said Brent. After he said that comment all the boys were cheering.

"Ok, quite down. I'm Coach Bolton. Today we are going to play dodge ball." They picked teams and Christina and Gabriella were on different teams.

Team 1

Troy

Gabriella

Sharpay

Chad (basketball player)

Hannah (Volleyball)

Andrew (wrestler)

Taylor

Etc..

Team 2

Johnny

Christina

Katie (Cheerleader)

Brent (Basketball and football)

Kassie (cheer)

Kyle (Basketball and football)

Dylan (cheer)

Etc.

They started the game. All the girls tried to hit Christina and Gabriella except Taylor.

"Eyy, why are you guys hitting me. I'm on your team." Said Christina to the girls that are her teammates.

The Girls didn't care. It happened to Gabriella too.

"Ouch!"

"Aww, is poor Gabriella hurt!" Sharpay said sarcastically.

"Umm No, I was just wondering why are you hitting me when I'm on your team!" yelled Gabriella. It was heard throughout the gym. Everyone got quite after she said that.

"Umm, because you and the other new girl are stealing our guys!" Hannah said.

"Ohh, you're their girlfriends?"

"Yupp!" Kassie said. While the boys shook their heads no. Gabriella and Christina didn't see them.

"Oh, we're sorry."

"You better be!" Katie yelled.

"Yup we are. We wouldn't want to be the girls that guys cheat with if they already have boyfriends. It would suck if we were in your shoes. Sorry again." Christina and Gabi said.

After their talk the 10 minute bell rang saying they need to get changed.

"Dude, we aren't their boyfriends!" Johnny said while walking to the boy's locker room.

"Well, some of us are!" Kyle said. "Sorry for what my girlfriend did. Now you guys can't get with Gabriella or Christina or who else you want to get with."

Gabi, Christina, and Taylor hurried up to change so they don't have to speak to the guys. They went to their lockers to go their third class which Taylor and Gabi had math and Christina had history.

"Ok, I'm Mr.Theisen and we have a new student name Gabriella Montez. You'll be sitting by Troy Bolton."

"Hey."

"Hey, I didn't know you were that smart?" said Gabriella. (not saying basketballers aren't smart, she didn't know since they stereotype people in this school.

"Ouch! That really hurts Montez!" placing his hand on his chest where his heart is.

Gabriella just laughed.

Math went by really fast for Troy and Gabriella. They just talked the whole time.
