I Feel Bad
Gabriella/Troy/Sharpay
Disclaimer: I do not own HSM characters. You all should know by now. Nor do I own Rascal Flatts or his song, "I Feel Bad."
Author's Note: I know many of my reader's don't like Gabriella and Troy stories, (though this isn't really one), or Gabriella (I'm with ya'll on that XD), but please just read it's really good, I promise.
In old Albuquerque, New Mexico stands a nineteen year old girl with long wavy brown hair and a tan complexion, standing in a driveway with two bags of luggage waiting for a cab. Alone. After a fight with her now ex-boyfriend, she decided to just leave him again and go back to Stanford University, thinking that they will get back together in a few days.
But this time she was wrong.
In his room, Troy Bolton, a nineteen year old boy with shaggy brown hair and stunning blue eyes, was staring out his window at the girl in his driveway waiting for her cab. He and this girl, her name was Gabriella Montez, had just gotten into another fight over something that he could care less about, when she broke off their relationship and was leaving.
Again.
This wasn't the first time that she has left him. She left him in their Junior Year, then again the summer between their Junior and Senior Year and lastly during Senior Year. Each time, her leaving him heartbroken and then a few days, or sometimes weeks, later he would run after her.
But not this time.
This time, he did not feel any remorse. He didn't feel the need to run out onto his driveway to stop her. He didn't cry over her leaving, like all those times before. This time, he stood strong, cold as stone, up in his room watching her leave. And he didn't know why the thought of her leaving him wasn't killing him inside. It felt so wrong to him, but at the same time it felt so right.
He is so tired that he's numb inside from all her frivolous shenanigans that she has been playing with their relationship; he has cried more in the past year and a half, than he has in his whole lifetime. All thanks to Gabriella. And he hates the feelings she has made him feel throughout their relationship: guilt and sadness.
But today, he only felt bad. He feels bad, that he doesn't feel bad.
He knew he could be angry for wasting so much time on a broken relationship that would have never worked out, or sad for throwing love away like they did, that he almost even wishes he felt heartbroken over this relationship. But then again if he wanted that, he'd be lying.
All he wants to do is move on, and turn the page in the story of his life. So he feels bad, because he doesn't feel bad about her leaving him this time.
This time he doesn't feel bitter. Or alone. And he knows it's time for him to move on; move on for the better.
So this time, he won't call her. Or fly out to Stanford. He won't even be returning to Berkeley. Maybe he will transfer over to the University of Albuquerque, where his best friend goes, and the school that can both excel in Theatre and Basketball. His real dream school. It's also the same school that his once high school crush, Sharpay Evans, is attending. In the field of Theatre. Who was he kidding, even when he was with Gabriella, he still had a crush on Sharpay.
So right now, Troy only feels bad. But only because he doesn't feel bad.
How was it? Terrible? Great?
Sorry, I'm thinking about maybe putting my stories on hold…. (don't yell please) for a while to work on them without having a bunch of people just sitting around waiting for them to be out. Because honestly I don't know when they will.
I also have been thinking of new ideas that I would love to write down. (no im starting another until I finish at least one of my stories.) XD
And lastly, how would you like oneshots to each song for Rascal Flatts album, Me and My gang. He has very inspirational lyrics, and it'd be cool to do it. (I already have one written XD)
Anyways, Read and Review. Thanks!! :)
