A short brunette walks through the halls of East High, Gabriella Montez, 18 years old, you could say she was popular, but she was far from it, she's very known to the East High students, but not in a good way, she was victimised by Troy Bolton , and the rest of the East High population, Troy was the same age as Gabriella 18 years old, she only had one true friend, and that was Sharpay Evans, she was utterly beautiful, captain of the East High cheerleaders, and girlfriend of the one and only Troy Bolton, its kind of hard being best friends with Sharpay, seeing as Troy Bolton was Gabriella's worst enemy.
Walking towards her locker, she turned the lock, opening it she gets the books she need for her classes, shuts it and turns round to meet a blue eyed boy with a smirk on his face. He grabs her books and throws them on the floor, chuckling to himself. Gabriella curses under the breathe and starts to pick her books up, she went to pick up the last one but the boy kicked it over the other side of the hallway, as she went to get her book the blue eyed guy pulled her back and pushed her into the lockers. She whimpered in pain, trying to hide her tears, she started to run, everyone was chanting. Fatty Fatty Fatty Fatty as she ran down the halls of East High, straight for the double doors.
Tears running down her face, she dumps into someone and falls to the ground, she looked up to see her best friend starting there, staring at her worriedly. "oh my god, Gabriella are you ok?, what happened to you?, and why are you crying?". Sharpay Evans held out her hand and Gabriella pulled herself up.
She wipes her tears away, looks at her best friend angrily. "your boyfriend that's what happened, he humiliated me Shar…again". Sharpay shakes her head and signs.
"that's it, I've had enough of this, me and him is going to be having words, come with me". Sharpay motioned her to come with, but Gabriella just stood there and shook her head.
"No Shar, just leave it I don't want to come between you and Troy, I can handle it, don't worry about me…im fine". Gabriella signed as she lied to her best friend.
Not believing her, but drops it. "Thanks gabs but, I've had enough of troy anyways, his boring me, and besides I know his cheating on me". Sharpay shakes her head.
Gabriella smiled at her best friend. "So does that mean its hoes over bros, again?"
Sharpay giggles. "Gabs you seriously need to lay of the one tree hills, its becoming your obsession".
Gabriella Shrugs. "Oh well, Shar I've been thinking, your not going to like this but, maybe it would be for the best".
She looks at Gabriella confused. "What do you mean?, what have you been thinking about?"
Gabriella signs. "I was thinking about getting a tummy tuck, I know its dangerous but, I can't live like this anymore Shar, the name calling, the beatings I get from Troy, I cant live with that".
Sharpay signs and nods. "Ok, I will always be hear for you Gabriella, no matter what happens"
Gabriella smiles and hugs her. "Thanks for understanding Sharpay, im glad I've got a best friend like you"
Sharpay hugs back, then pulls away, smiles at her. "Same here gabs, I better get going, im going to be late for class and you know what Mrs Darbus gets like when your late". The girls hug before going there separate ways.
Gabriella was walking down the street on her way home, tears in her eyes, was she really going to go through with this, have a tummy tuck?, she couldn't help but think "I am doing the right thing, do I really want to do this". Yes she did, she needed to do it, not just so everyone would stop calling her fat but, for her to feel good about herself, she was an emotion wreak, being bullied hurt her physically and emotionally.
The next couple of days were a blur, Gabriella would sit in her bedroom all day not eating, not drinking, she would even ignore her mums calls from down stairs, the only person she would talk to was Sharpay, she broke up with Troy after catching him making out with some brunette haired slut in the halls, typical troy.
"Sweetie, you can't stay in there forever, you need to eat". Mrs Montez talked to her daughter, on the other side of her bedroom door.
She didn't reply, all she did was lay on her bed lifelessly, she hated being this way but, that's life isn't it?, hearing another small knock on the door, she got off of her bed and walked to her bedroom with her head low and opened it.
Mrs Montez looked at Gabriella shocked, she has never seen her this way before, it broke her heart she didn't even know what to do, she didn't know why she was the way she was, what would make her happy again. Her mother walked near her and hugged her tightly, while Gabriella cry's on her mothers shoulders hysterically.
"Gabriella, what's wrong?". her mother questioned her.
She looks at her mum and shakes her head. "I want a change mum, I don't want to be the girl that gets bullied, being called fat, I want to change" almost in a whisper. "I cant live like this anymore mum, I cant".
Mrs Montez looks at her daughter, and nods. "What do you want to do about it Gabriella?"
A Small smile crept on her face. "I want to get a tummy tuck, mum". Her mother was about to object when Gabriella spoke again cutting her off. "I know what the consequences are mum, and I've been about it a lot, I want to go through with it, please mum?, you have to understand".
Mrs Montez looks at her depressed daughter and signs. "Ok, but only on one condition".
Gabriella lets out a little giggle. "And what's that?"
"You get your butt downstairs and eat something, you haven't ate or drank in two days".
Gabriella smiles at her mother and nods, they walk down the stairs and have a nice quiet dinner, just mother and daughter, no interruptions and no intruders.
The next morning Gabriella's alarm went off, groaning while turning over to turn it off, she got out of her bed, and had a nice long shower, after showering she opens the bathroom door, walking out the steam from the bathroom following her, just walked to her dresser in a towel and picked out her clothes for the day, laying them on her bed she gets dressed and looks in the steamed mirror, wiping the mirror with her hand, she looks at herself and shakes her head in disgust. Today is the first day of going back to school after staying off for two days, she was kind of happy to go back, seeing Sharpay again, but another part of her didn't want to go back, because as soon as she walks through them halls, troy will start bullying her again.
Opening her bedroom door, she walked out while shutting it behind, walking down the stairs to smell bacon and eggs, her mum was cooking breakfast, walking into the kitchen and sitting at the table, with her elbows resting on it, while her hands were over her face.
Mrs Montez looked around to see Gabriella sitting at the dining room table. "are you ok, darling?".
She looks up at her mum and gives her a small nod. "Yeah I guess, just scared about going back to school"
"Gabriella, everything will be ok, I promise" Mrs Montez smiled at her, insuring her.
Gabriella nods. "Well I hope so, have you phoned the doctors yet?"
Mrs Montez nods. "Ohh shoot I forgot to tell you about that, they fitted you on the list for tomorrow, we have to be there for 9.00am"
Gabriella's eyes glowed. "Really?, are you serious, im getting the operation tomorrow?"
Mrs Montez laughs at her daughter's happiness. "Yes Gabriella, your operation is tomorrow, don't forget to inform Sharpay, im sure she would want to know also"
Gabriella replied with a nod. "Sure mum, ill tell her when she picks me up". Hearing a Beep outside. "Ohh, she is hear, ill see you later mum". Gabriella gives her mum a kiss on the cheek and runs out of the door.
Heading towards a pink coverable, Gabriella waves at Sharpay and gets in the car, speeding off to East High school.
Sharpay turns to Gabriella quickly, then back to the road. "Are you ok, you seem abit…tense"
Gabriella looked at Sharpay and signs. "I have a date for the tummy tuck Shar".
Sharpay nods, keeping her eyes on the road. "When is it then?"
"Tomorrow morning, at 9.00am". Gabriella looked out of the window, then at Sharpay.
Sharpay looks at Gabriella wide eyes, before turning her head back on the road. "So your really going through with this huh?"
Gabriella nods her head at Sharpay. "Yes I am, im not chickening out now Shar, I've come to far to give up now, im doing this, I want to do this"
The rest off the car ride was silent, not awkward, a comfortable silence, pulling up in the parking lot of East High, parking the car and getting out the girls walk through the doors of East High, linking arms they go to Gabriella's locker first so she can get her books out for the day, then walking to Sharpays locker straight after, everyone was staring at the two best friends walking down the hall, sniggering at Gabriella, while the guys whistle at Sharpay. Sharpay rolls her eyes, reaching her locker, to see Troy Bolton leaning against Sharpays locker, smirking at her.
"Sharpay, Baby". Troy ginned at Sharpay, pushing him self of the lockers as she walks closer.
"What the fuck do you want, Bolton?". Sharpay spat
"Baby, im sorry about what happened a few days ago, she forced herself on me, I couldn't do anything about it, she was to strong". He lied.
Gabriella scoffs.
Troy turns his attention to Gabriella, Glaring at her. "Shouldn't you be somewhere, eating cream cakes?"
Gabriella's eyes start to get watery. "Shut up, you fucking bastard".
Troy grew mad, Grabbing Gabriella by the throat and slamming her against her wall, he got right up in her face. "Who the fuck do you think you are, talking to me like that".
Gabriella started to chock as his grip got tighter and tighter. Troy smirked as she started to go blue in the face, Sharpay just stood their shocked looking at her best friend, who was turning blue, her eyes started to close, She snapped out of it and lunged at troy trying to pull him off her, he wouldn't budge.
"TROY, GET THE FUCK OFF HER, SHE GOING BLUE, YOUR GOING TO KILL HER, LET GO, DAMN IT" she shouted fiercely.
Troy let go when Sharpay yelled at him, Gabriella falls to the floor unconscious, running to her side Sharpay cradles her head and starts screaming. "GABRIELLA, GABBY, SOMEONE HELP ME"
Everyone looked at her, and was shocked at what they saw, right in front of them was Gabriella Montez on Sharpays lap unconscious, while her best friend cries. "DON'T JUST STAND THERE, SOMEONE CALL AN AMBULENCE!"
One of the students ran off to get a teacher, still shocked of what they just saw. Troy looks down at Sharpay, and walks closer to her, kneeling down he holds her tightly against his chest, Sharpay pushes him off her and slaps him round the face. "Don't you fucking touch me, don't come any where near me again?, do you understand, leave me and Gabriella alone, I HATE YOU!"
He stands up, while holding his red cheek, he looks from Sharpay to Gabriella, feeling guilty. "Shar, Im really sorry I didn't mean to do that to her, just was pissing me off so much, I flipped, I guess I've kept all that anger since she came here".
Sharpay shakes her head. "Get lost troy, you shouldn't even be apologizing to me, you should be apologizing to Gabriella!"
Troy shakes his head. "Im sorry but, I cant do that, im not sorry for what I done to her, im sorry for what I done to you"
Well im not accepting it Troy, you hurt me". She spat.
Troy nods in understanding. "Ill see you later Sharpay"
Sharpay shakes her head as Troy walks down the hall, with his hands in his jeans pockets, running towards Sharpay Mrs Darbus looks at Gabriella and calls the Police Immediately.
Hearing Ambulance sirens Mrs Darbus and Sharpay carries Gabriella's limp body out of the school and into the parking lot where the ambulance was. The paramedics rush out of the van and takes Gabriella out of Mrs Darbus and Sharpays arms, and carries her bridle style to the ambulance, Sharpay hops in and they drive to the hospital. She looks over to Gabriella and whispers "Please be ok, Gabriella"
