Life In NYC

"Wow this place is amazing." Gabriella Montez exclaimed as she, Taylor, Kelsi, and Sharpay entered their dorm room all of them setting boxes down.

"Ewww it's so plain." Sharpay commented rolling her pink Chanel suitcases in. Taylor and Kelsi just rolled their eyes flopping onto the couch.

"So what do we want to do after we get unpacked?" Kelsi asked the other girls.

Before the others could answer a petite girl wearing grey sweat pants and a NYPD hoodie walked in with a duffle bad over her shoulder. Her long black hair was pulled back in a messy bun and her baby blue eyes were outlined by grey eyeliner. She was followed in by a red headed woman wearing a pant suit with a gun and badge on her belt, and a buff guy in a leather jacket both carrying boxes . "You guys didn't have to…" she started but looked up to see eight eyeballs on her. "ummm Hi, I'm your guys roommate." she said with a smile.

"Hi" Gabi replied. "I'm Gabriella Montez and this is Taylor McKessi, Kelsi Nielson and Sharpay Evans." Each of the girls waved at the girl as Gabi said their name.

"It's nice to meet you all. I'm Nicole Flack but you can call me Nikki." She said setting her duffle bad down. "Startsy and Husk over there are Alexa Kyler and Danny Messer. They work with my brother."

"Nice to meet you." Danny said setting a box down as did Alexa. At that moment his beeper went off. "Nikki me and Lex gotta go. We've got a D.B in the subway." He told Nikki who just nodded.

Sharpay, Gabi, Taylor, and Kelsi all looked confused but waved good-bye to the two of them. "What was that all about?" Taylor asked.

"Oh Alexa is Detective like my brother and Danny is a crime scene investigator. They have a homicide scene to go to." Nikki explained. "So I take it you all know each other." she stated.

"Yeah how did you know?" Sharpay asked.

"There's a picture of all you girl with all these guys in one of those boxes over

there." She said sitting on the couch.

"Nice observation skills" Taylor commented.

"It's nothing really. So where are you guys from?" She asked.

"New Mexico" Gabi replied. "How about you?"

"That's far away. I'm from New York, born and raised" Nikki told them.

"Awesome do you know where all the good shopping places are?" Sharpay asked filing her nails.

"Uh not really I'm more of a sporty girl. I'm on a soccer scholarship to here." Nikki explained. "But I do know a lot of good restaurants, and places to see."

"Would you mind showing us and our boyfriends around town?" Kelsi asked and the rest of the girl perked up at that idea.

"Sure why not it will be fun." Nikki smiled.

"Great I'll call Troy and tell him and the guys to meet us here." Gabi said bouncing off the couch and heading to her purse.

"Of course she'd be the first one of us to call the boyfriend." Taylor chuckled.

"What's wrong with that?" Nikki asked curiously.

"Well her an Troy met in this fairytale way, and became a legend at our school. And those two can't stay more than an hour away from each other." Sharpay informed her.

Nikki's mouth formed a 'O', as Gabi came back. "Ok the boys will be here in 30 minutes." She said.

"Ok I'm gonna go change so I'll be out soon." Nikki said grabbing her duffle bag and heading into one of the bathrooms. 20 minutes later she came out wearing skinny jeans, an Abercrombie & Fitch green tank top, with a white button down shirt over it, and a pair of white flats. He her was down and very straight cascading down her back.

"Nice outfit" Taylor commented. Before Nikki could respond the girls heard a knock on the door. "That must be the guys they are early." She said as the rest of the girls stood up and Sharpay opened the door.

"Hey guys come on in you've got to meet our roommate, Nikki." She said ushering them in.

"Ok Nikki this is Troy Bolton, Gabi's boyfriend." Taylor said pointing to the dirty blonde and blue eyed boy. "Next to him with the bushy afro is his best friend and my goofball boyfriend Chad Danforth. Next to him is Ryan Evans Sharpay's twin brother and Kelsi's boyfriend." She said pointing to the blonde hair boy wearing a goofy hat. "The guy that Sharpay is clinging to is her boyfriend Zeke Baylor. His crème brule is delicious. And that guy at the end is Jason Cross." She finally finished pointing to the guy on the end with brown eyes and black hair. Their eyes locked and Nikki smiled at him.

"Alright let's get this show on the road I wanna see New York." Sharpay said squealing clapping her hands.

"Ok let's go we can take the subway to Times Square." Nikki said grabbing her purse and cell phone. The 10 of them filed out the dorm room and headed out. The gang had just boarded a subway train in the back, chatting amongst themselves. Lights in the back caught Nikki's eyes. "Guy we need to get off this train right now." She said turning around to face them.

"Why what's goin on?" Troy asked.

"There's another train coming up behind us and we're not moving, and its not stopping." She told him. Everyone immediately got off as the train behind them came to a screeching halt. Four people exited the train.

"Hey Stella look" One of them said pointing at two different things.

"333, I gotta call Mac." The woman with curly hair said.

The guy turned around and Nikki saw his face. "Don!" She shouted running up to him. Leaving the rest of her new found friends confused.
