Chapter 1: The Beginning
--------HSM--------
It was just another typical day. Troy Bolton was working at his new part-time job as a life guard at the local New Mexico swimming pool and park. Not only had he been playing basketball his whole life, but he was forced into swimming lessons by his mother. He could remember the day she had come up to him and told him about swimming.

FLASHBACK
Troy's POV:
I was sitting in my room reading a basketball magazine. It was the summer before 2nd grade and I was really bored. My mom walked into my room and I sat up on my bed, putting down the magazine.
"Hi mommy, whats up?" I asked her.
"Hi Troy, hunny. I just came up here to tell you some good news. You have been bored all summer and you haven't gone out of the house, except the occasional visits to Chad's house." My mom said.
"Yeah so what's the good news?" I asked, getting bored. (Hey, he was only 7!)
"Well, you know I want you around the house more than ever to spend time with you, right?" I nodded.
"Well, I signed you up for swimming lessons!" My eyes bulged out and my jaw dropped.
"What! Why did you do that?" I shouted.
"I thought you needed to get into an activity. It can bring you to a good career you know." She replied calmly.
"I don't wanna go! I wanna be a basketball player!" I cried.
"Well, you're going. And that's final."
End Troy's POV.
END FLASHBACK

Troy remembered about what his mom had said, "It can bring you into a good career you know." It brought him to get this liveguard job. He was only taking it so he could get some extra cash before he went into the NBA. His mother was so proud of him.

The only thing Troy hated about this job was some of the people that came to the pool. Particularly Sharpay Evans. Everytime she came to the pool, she would be dressed up in a very showy bikini bathingsuit and lay down on one of the pool chairs. She was always trying to get him to notice her and he was getting a little bit mad. He had Gabriella. They were dating. Why couldn't she get that? Why wouldn't she just leave him alone?
Sometimes, Troy would come to the pool on his day off with Gabriella just to get Sharpay jealous. He never used Gabriella for his selfish purposes, but Gabriella was always glad to get Sharpay jealous. She was tired of Sharpay always trying to get Troy for herself.
Gabriella and Troy were a wonderful couple. Always happy, never angry with eachother or fighting. They were always holding hands or smiling at eachother. Everyone at East High was jealous of their relationship. They all wanted a love like Gabriella and Troy had.
Gabriella and Troy were all eachother could have ever hoped for. They were happy with eachother.
But little did they know what was going to happen soon.
