A/N-Hey guys!

I wanted to try out this story with you guys.

This isn't exactly what I usually write about so, please cut it some slack. Thanks!

Gabriella Montez bolted upright in bed. As she screamed. She was sweating and scared. She had just experienced another nightmare.

You see, Gabriella wasn't your normal everyday teenager.

She had seen what most people don't ever want to see in their lifetime. Well, the two things anyway.

First, she had seen both her parents murdered.

Then for a few days, she had just sat there and watched her parents' bodies lie there. Motionless. And the one word she didn't want to but thought of anyway, dead.

Since none of her relatives could be contacted at the time Gabriella was placed in a orphanage. That was when she was 10.

She was now, 15 and she still had flashbacks and nightmares.

She hated them, more like she was afraid of them.

The head of the orphanage, Maggie came rushing to Gabriella's side. Maggie was sort of the mother some of the children never had.

"Gabriella, sweetie, are you alright?"

Gabriella sighed and looked at the clock. "Yes, I'm fine Maggie."

"Are you sure, you screamed."

"Yes, yes, I'm sure. I just….had another nightmare."

"Would you like to talk about it, sweetheart?"

Gabriella shook her head. "I'm fine, I just need some sleep."

This is what Gabriella always said. She never wanted to talk about it.

Maggie nodded. "Goodnight, Gabriella." She said as she walked out of the room.

Gabi sighed again as she laid back down. Not only, was she scared of her nightmare but, tomorrow she would be facing her worst nightmare: High School.

She had never been good at making friends and was always left out.

Maybe….tomorrow will be different… Gabi thought as she laid on her side.

Yeah right… She thought suddenly.

She tossed and turned half the night, but she couldn't fall asleep.

She didn't want to wake Maggie again. And she most definitely didn't want to wake any of the other kids.

So there she laid awake. Staring at the ceiling. Thinking about how miserable she's going to be tomorrow. All night long.

A/N-I know the chapters kinda short but I wanted to write this and see how you guys take it.

Hope you guys like it! Leave a review!
