YAY! So, I came up with an amazing story idea at like 2AM yesterday night/morning and I wrote it down, thinking that I could write a story. And I like it. So I hope you enjoy it as much as you enjoyed my other stories.

Note: The beginning is a complete introduction…it is quite boring, and I apologize, but I wanted to be in detail, and stuff…please read it all and I hope you enjoy. Oh, and there isn't much Troyella in this chapter, but there will be plenty!

Plot: What happens when Gabriella's mom has a business trip and sends Gabriella out to stay with some close family friends, the Boltons, for a whole summer…? What happens when she meets a certain blue eyed boy?

Disclaimer: I do NOT own High School Musical, If I did…well…you would know. Haha…

Chapter 1

Gabriella's P.O.V:

"But mom-" I huffed. Why was she doing this to me?

"Gabi, sweetie, it's this, or you're coming with me on my business trip to Oregon." Mom explained and I groaned.

"But mom, I don't even know them! And I don't want to spend my summer with complete strangers! Please, mom, can't I just stay with Kayla?" I begged.

"Hunnie, I told you, I don't want to intrude and it would be rude for me to ask them suddenly. It's just 3 months. I was talking to Lucille, explaining the trip, she gladly offered for you to stay with them. And besides, I've known her since you were a baby. And she even has a son your age. He's 17, and he's not that bad." My mom explained. Why was she telling me this in the first place? I didn't care! I didn't want to go to New Mexico for the summer! I wanted to stay here…in New York.

"If you knew them for so long, why wasn't I introduced to them?" I said raising an eyebrow, trying to make sure she understood I didn't want to do this.

"Gabi, I told you. We moved from New Mexico when you were just 3 years old. But I still talk to them all the time. Jack and Lucille are happy to have you. It'll be fine! You'll have a fun time. I heard that they have a pool in their backyard. You can get a tan, and you can just relax. You'll have a great time. Please, sweetheart, just do this for me? Three months! That's all I'm asking for you to do!" My mom pleaded and I sighed.

I knew this was a big opportunity for my mom. It was three months after all…I guess it couldn't be that bad. Maybe, I could meet some new friends or even have a sweet summer romance. Or…

"Mom…" I said, sighing for about the billionth time in one hour, "I'll do it. Just promise me, you'll never do this to me again?" I said as I brought my two huge suitcases downstairs and she followed.

I've been trying to convince her that this was a bad idea for the past 2 weeks, but she wouldn't listen to me. And today was the day that I was off to New Mexico; Albuquerque to be more exact. And I was now going to the resident of the Bolton's.

"Who knows hun? Maybe you'll love it so much at the Bolton's that you'll want to go there every summer…or maybe even want to move back there…" she said in a voice that was scaring me. Did she seriously mean that?

"Mom! We live in New York City! Why would I want to move to a boring city…in New Mexico?" I said as we began to go down the hallway out of our penthouse.

Yes, my mom made big bucks for being a lawyer. How? She did a lot of cases with celebrities and such…

"Haha…sweetie. Really, New Mexico is a great place to live. That's why I lived there for so long before I had you." Mom said for about the…hundred millionth time for the past 2 weeks.

We walked down the hallway and pressed the down button for the elevator, waiting for the elevator to make the familiar 'ding'. We live in on the twentieth floor and I have to say it's nice. It's very extravagant. And we have an amazing view to New York City.

The elevator door opened as I rolled my purple suitcases into the elevator, holding the doors open for my mom as she entered. We pressed '1' and then we were off. "Mom, you know that New York City is amazing. It's the city that never sleeps. Broadway! Central Park! Shopping!" I said trying to make it sound exciting.

"And I have friends here! I love Kayla! And Emily! And-"

"I get it Gabi. But I know you can make plenty of friends if we did move." She said and I cocked my head. What was she talking about? She wasn't actually thinking about moving back there was she?

"Mom, you don't want to move back do you?" I asked as the elevator door opened once again and she took one of my suitcases and rolled them out the lobby.

"Have a great time in Albuquerque Gabi." Dave said as he opened the door for us. Ah, Dave. Such a nice man. He was the doorman at our building, I've known him since the day we moved in. Or in other words, when I was three.

"Awe thanks Dave!" I smiled at him and gave him a big hug, "Maybe I'll write." I smiled as he just rolled his eyes, knowing that I probably wouldn't, but I knew he didn't want me to.

"Of course Gabs." He chuckled as he opened the door for the last time this summer.

"Bye!" I said as we walked out onto the sidewalks of New York City.

"Bye New York!" I laughed as my mom whistled loudly and yelled, "TAXI!"

"Perfect." She said as a taxi stopped at the curb and we packed my suitcases in the trunk.

We hopped in, "Airport." My mom said and the taxi nodded as he turned on the ticker as we drove off.

It was way too early, for this. It was what…4? And my plane didn't leave till like 7:30…and my mom woke me up at 3 just so we could be on time for my flight. And I didn't even want to go!

An hour later…

We finally arrived at the airport and my mom helped me unpack everything from the taxi and then took me all the way through security.

I finally arrived at my gate and sat down and sighed. I was on my own now. And I was going to New Mexico…

"Bye New York!" I sighed.

I waited a couple of minutes and then I heard a bright perky voice over the speakers say, "Now boarding seats 1-20 on flight 142 to Albuquerque, New Mexico!"

I sighed. That was me and I was leaving. Whether I liked it or not…and it was going to a be three hour and thirty one minute flight (A/N: I looked it up…So I would be accurate)and I wasn't going to be able to get out of it once I was on that plane and we were taking off…

I grabbed my backpack and laptop case from the seat next to me and my ticket and then handed it to the smiley women. Why was it that flight attendants always had to smile? I mean, yes it's nice and all for customer service, but god, that would hurt my cheeks. And what if there was a really rude-

"Ms? Ticket please?" she said in a happy voice and I smiled nicely.

"Sorry, here." I said as I handed her my ticket and she checked it. "Thanks." I said as she gave me a smile and handed back me back my ticket.

"Of course." She said as I went through the tunnel of no return and entered the cave of death…okay, yes that was a bit of an exaggeration, but I really didn't want to leave my city.

"Here we go." I said as I took a seat on the 7th row back and sat at the window seat and opened the window. I sighed and then took out my phone and put it on my airplane mode.

I waited about another 10 minutes, "Captain speaking, we will be taking off in about one minute. Please turn off all electrical items until it is said so to turn back on. These include: ipods, electric recorders, cell phones, computers, etc." he said.

I then looked up at the front of the plane and noticed there was a flight attendant who was holding up the example of the seat belt, y'know, standard procedure. I buckled my seat belt as she explained how to make sure it was securely fastened and what not.

And before I knew it, we were off. I looked at the window as I saw that we were picking up speed and I made a small gesture, saying goodbye to the airport and New York.

And then once we were up, the captain gave the okay to turn on all electrical items. I got out my iPod touch from my backpack, plugged my ear-buds into my ears and turned it on and shut my eyes…

Three Hours and Thirty Minutes Later…

"Attention, we will be landing in a few minutes, please all passengers back in their seats and seat belts on. Thank you." He said in a robotic voice.

I turned off my ipod, and put it back in the small pocket of my backpack and then looked out the window. I looked at the place I was arriving in. It was…dry, almost like a desert.

We finally landed in a short five minutes and I then got off, putting my backpack on my shoulders and putting my laptop case strap around my right shoulder like a purse.

I sighed, this was it and now I knew there was no going back. I turned on my phone and called my mom quickly to let her know that my flight landed and I was okay. She told me that I was going to meet the Boltons at the place where you pick up your luggage.

I walked down to the luggage pick up area and I didn't see anybody that looked like they were the Boltons…

I searched and searched, then spotting a women waving at me, with red hair and pretty tall…being 5'11"…she had a warm smile and…to be honest, was kind of pale.

I then noticed her arm was wrapped around man who was about 6'2" and he had broad shoulders and he looked pretty big. He had brown hair that was kind of long, and he had a…smile, that was well…welcoming .

And I noticed someone next to them, a boy…my age, or at least that's what my mom said. He was supposed to be 17…he was about 5'10'' and he had brown hair and gorgeous blue eyes…

He wasn't smiling either. He was listening to his iPod and not even looking at me. I sighed and then walked over to them. "Oh Gabriella! Hi! I'm Lucille." The women introduced herself.

"And I'm Jack." The man said as I shook both their hands.

"It's nice to meet you Mr. and Mrs. Bolton." I smiled and Lucille scoffed.

"Oh please, Gabriella, call us Jack and Lucille. We feel old if you call us that." Lucille laughed and I gave a genuine smile.

"And this is our son, Troy." Jack said pointing to Troy and I smiled.

"Hi I'm Gabriella." I said offering my hand and he wasn't even looking at me.

"Troy!" Jack said nudging his son in the gut with his elbow.

"Jack!" Lucille warned and Jack glared at his son.

"What? He's being rude!" Jack said as he noticed Troy taking out his ear buds and then looking at me from head to toe. Was he…checking me out?

"Sorry…I'm Troy." He said offering his hand I shook it then took my hand away from his grasp.

Okay, he was good looking and he was obviously in shape, but he was…rude! "Gabriella." I said in a complete monotone. I smiled at Jack and Lucille and then we went to get my suitcases.

"Wow…are you moving in?" Troy laughed and I shut my eyes, trying not to groan or completely kill my mom for making me do this.

"Troy…please, manners." Jack said in a stern voice and I just grabbed both my suitcases and rolled them off towards the door.

Lucille caught up with me, "Sorry Gabriella. Troy needs some time to get used to things. He really didn't want you to come, and well we talked him into it." Lucille explained and I nodded, not wanting to say anything, because I knew if I did, I was going to yell.

"So, aren't you happy for your mom?" Lucille said trying to make conversation.

"Yeah, really happy. I think it's awesome she's getting this offer." I said trying to make sure Troy didn't ruin my day.

"Me too." Lucille smiled. Observation: sweet lady and I think I like her. She was really nice and reminded me of my own mom.

We got into the car after packing my suitcases in the trunk. I sat next to Troy who was looking out of the window and I really wanted to slap him. What did I do? I didn't even want to come here!

We got to their house in a long thirty minute drive that was somewhat silent, except Lucille and Jack asking me questions like, "So what are your grades like?" and "How's my mom doing?" and "What's New York like?" etc…

Lucille showed me where everything was and then showed me my room, and then showed me where my closet, bathroom, drawer space was and everything. It was nice, very simple and elegant. The walls were painted purple, because Lucille said she had heard from my mom my favorite color was painted purple. They even got new sheets for me and a new bedspread. There was a desk for my laptop and there was even a balcony. "Troy will give you a tour of the town after you're done unpacking." Lucille smiled as she shut my door.

I groaned loudly after I heard her footsteps. I got out all my neatly folded clothes and put them in the drawer and hung up some shirts, dresses, and some nice pants and skirts. Then I took out my phone and turned it off of airplane mode and texted my mom to let her know I was settled in. Then I called my best friend, Kayla.

"Oh my god Gabi!" she said in a loud voice and I put the phone away from my ear.

"Kay!" I squealed as I smiled to hear a familiar voice.

"So you're there now? How is it? Is Troy cute? Are they nice? Is it nice?" she said asking way too many questions.

"Kay…c'mon. One question at a time. It's awesome here. Troy's….well…he's kind of rude. But he's pretty cute. I'll send you the picture my mom had sent to me, even though I never looked at it. And I'll take plenty of pictures for you." I laughed.

"So, he's…mean?" Kayla asked.

"Kind of." I laughed as I saw the door swing open. It was Troy…

"C'mon tour time." Troy said in a loud voice and I turned around avoiding him. Why is he so obnoxious?

"Was that him?" Kayla whispered and I laughed.

"Why are you whispering? He can't hear you." I laughed, "And yeah, that was him. Look, I gotta go. We'll talk online later tonight okay? And then have Sam call me later. I miss you guys!" I smiled into the phone.

"Okay, fine. But send that picture. Bye Gabs!" she giggled and we both hung up.

"So who's Sam?" Troy asked and I raised an eyebrow.

"Nobody…" I said as I put on my flip flops and put my phone in my pocket and grabbed my sunglasses and put them on my head.

"Is he your boyfriend?" Troy said and I laughed and just walked right past him and then went downstairs.

"I'll take that as a no." Troy said shrugging it off and I went into the kitchen and I noticed there were three guys, one with really big hair, one with long hair, and one with well…normal-ish looking hair.

They all stared at me and once I turned around to walk away, I ran into Troy."Guys, this is Gabriella. Gabriella, this is Chad, Zeke, and Jason." He said as each one of them raised their hand and waved as he said their name.

I nodded at them and then walked away and my phone vibrated, then rang loudly. "Sam!" I yelled a little too loudly, because they started at me and then decided to go into the living room.

"Gabi! Oh my god, how is it? I heard that Troy dude was a total jerk!" I laughed. Kayla and Sam were my best friends and well, we tell each other everything. Sam was an awesome guy friend and I met them both when I went to preschool.

"Yes…he is. And he's giving me a tour and stuff. So I can't talk long. But it's really hot and humid here. And…well I like my room and Jack and Lucille, Troy's parents, are nice." I explained quickly and then Troy grabbed me and put me into the kitchen.

"TROY!" I whisper-yelled and he chuckled.

"We're leaving. C'mon." he said in a loud, firm voice.

"Is that him?" Sam said laughing obnoxiously and I wish I was there to push him.

"Yes. Sadly. Gotta go Sam. I miss you! Bye!" I said and then hung up and glared at Troy.

"Well, you didn't tell me Gabriella was going to be cute…so Gabriella, are you single?" I heard Jason say to me and I blushed. Well at least he wasn't that bad…

"Yeah." I said and then laughed as he smiled at me and Troy rolled his eyes.

"Ew. Now let's go. We have to pick up Taylor and then we're going bowling."

"Before we do this, Troy, why do you hate me?" I said getting it over with now, instead of making this night longer than it should be.

"What? I don't hate you. I just…didn't want a girl living with us all summer. Sorry, can we just go?" Troy groaned and I rolled my eyes and nodded.

This was going to be one heck of a summer…

Well, that's the intro, and I think I did a decent job. Enjoy guys! And please, please, please review!
