A/n: Okay, this probably won't be so good, but I just had to write this idea down. Please review!!!
Disclaimer: I don't own HSM or any of its characters...yet. heehee.
17-year-old, Gabriella Montez was filled with happiness and joy as she walked out of the science lab. Her life was perfect. She had the nicest family ever and amazing friends. Her Scholastic Decathlon team was the top in the state, and she was the star of the Twinkle Towne musical. On top of all of these things, Gabriella's boyfriend was none other than East High's Golden Boy, Troy Bolton.
Gabriella stopped by her locker and saw Taylor standing at the drinking fountain.
"Hey! Are you coming to dinner with Chad and me tonight?" questioned Taylor.
"Of course," said Gabriella, "Troy and I will be there at 6 o'clock sharp, but I've got to get going now. I have play practice with Troy."
Gabriella started towards Troy's locker when she saw a familiar blonde-haired girl kissing someone in the corner. 'Sharpay is so gross,' Thought Gabriella as she glanced at the corner. Then, she realized something else. It wasn't Zeke who Sharpay was kissing. Gabriella saw the blue eyes and sandy brown hair of none other than East High's Golden Boy, Troy Bolton.
"Everything between us was perfect! I don't know why he'd do such a thing!" said Gabriella between sobs. "I don't know what I did wrong!"
Gabriella was sitting in the girls' bathroom with Taylor, who was doing her best to comfort her heart-broken friend.
"You didn't do anything wrong, Gaby! Troy is just...a lunk-head!"
"But...he was always talking about how he hated Sharpay! I wonder how long their relationship has been going on!" cried Gabriella.
"Gabriella, forget about Troy. He obviously doesn't deserve you," said Taylor while patting her on the back.
Gabriella dried her eyes and stood up.
"Thanks, Taylor. You really are a great friend. But what should I do now?"
"Well, I think you ought to break up with the lunk-head!"
"You're right! The sooner I end this relationship, the better!"
The second Gabriella walked out of the bathroom, Gabriella spotted Troy.
"Gabbers!" said Troy. "Gabbers" was the pet name Troy referred to Gabriella as.
"Don't call me that!" said Gabriella in an irritated voice.
Troy shot her a confused look and slowly said, "Okay...Why weren't you at practice? Not that you needed it, you're already the best one on the cast," said Troy while flashing Gabriella one of his famous smiles.
"Troy, we're through," said Gabriella simply. "I know what you did."
"Huh?" said Troy with a confused expression on his face.
"I saw you with Sharpay. Look, I've got to go," said Gabriella. She turned on her heel and walked away, leaving Troy with his feet planted to the ground and the same confused expression glued to his face.
When Gabriella got home, she hopped on IM. To her great dismay, the two people whom Gabriella currently disliked the most were logged on: Troy and Sharpay.
Playmaker14 (Troy): Gabriella, we need to talk.
Freakygeniusgirl (Gabriella): what is there to say?
Playmaker14: what did you mean by "I saw u with Sharpay?"
Freakygeniusgirl: what do u think I meant?
Playmaker14: I DON'T KNOW!
Freakygeniusgirl: Troy, I saw u kissing her!
Playmaker14: kissing Sharpay?!?!
Freakygeniusgirl: yes!

BoptotheTop345 (Sharpay): HEY GABRIELLA!!!!
Freakygeniusgirl: hey.
BoptotheTop345: wat's up?
Freakygeniusgirl: nothing.
BoptotheTop345: is something wrong?!
Gabriella decided to be honest with Sharpay.
Freakygeniusgirl: yes.
BoptotheTop345: ooo! tell me!!!
Freakygeniusgirl: umm...sharpay, I saw u and troy.
BoptotheTop345: u saw us what?
Freakygeniusgirl: I saw u kissing him this afternoon!
BoptotheTop345: huh?
Freakygeniusgirl: u were kissing my boyfriend!
BoptotheTop345: I was not!
Freakygeniusgirl: I saw u kissing him in the corner after 6th period.
BoptotheTop345: ew. no, that was Chris Michaels!
Gabriella thought for a moment. Chris Michaels. He was a little taller than Troy's height, he had blue eyes, and he had sandy brown hair.
Freakygeniusgirl: r u serious?
BoptotheTop345: yes! I swear on my stack of Popstar! magazines.
Freakygeniusgirl signed off.
Gabriella's feet were carrying her down her staircase and out into the pouring rain. She had to see Troy. Gabriella thought. Playmaker14: whatever! I've g2g. Im going for a drive. Whenever Troy "went for a ride," he went to the park near East High to think.
When Gabriella arrived, she saw Troy on the sidewalk, about to cross the street.
"Troy! Wait!" screamed Gabriella.
Troy looked over at Gabriella and shook his drenched head. Without looking, Troy crossed the street. That was a big mistake.
Gabriella watched the scene as if it were in slow-motion, and she couldn't do anything. All she could do was scream in terror. If Gabriella could, she'd try to push Troy out of the way, but she had slow reflexes. The headlights of the car seemed to blind Troy. He tried to move out of the way, but even the star-basketball player couldn't seem to dodge the car.
The car moved on, the driver not even noticing that she had killed Troy Bolton.
Seems like it was yesterday when I saw your face
You told me how proud you were, but I walked away
If only I knew what I know today
Ooh, ooh
I would hold you in my arms
I would take the pain away
Thank you for all you've done
Forgive all your mistakes
There's nothing I wouldn't do
To hear your voice again
Sometimes I wanna call you
But I know you won't be there
Ohh I'm sorry for blaming you
For everything I just couldn't do
And I've hurt myself by hurting you
Some days I feel broke inside but I won't admit
Sometimes I just wanna hide 'cause it's you I miss
And it's so hard to say goodbye
When it comes to this, oooh
Would you tell me I was wrong?
Would you help me understand?
Are you looking down upon me?
Are you proud of who I am?
There's nothing I wouldn't do
To have just one more chance
To look into your eyes
And see you looking back
Ohh I'm sorry for blaming you
For everything I just couldn't do
And I've hurt myself, ohh.
If I had just one more day
I would tell you how much that I've missed you
Since you've been away
Ooh, it's dangerous
It's so out of line
To try and turn back time
I'm sorry for blaming you
For everything I just couldn't do
And I've hurt myself by hurting you
A/n: lol, sorry that was such a lame one-shot. Please review anyway!!! The song, "Hurt" is by Christina Aguilera, by the way.
