From Gabriella's point of view:
I never really imagined having a boyfriend. At all my old schools, I was too busy. Sure, once or twice a guy asked me out, but I always came up with an excuse not to go. Troy and I just met at New Years Eve, so I guess he didn't know that. But still, I think he over reacted. But before I get into details, you should hear the story:
"Wanna go to the mall after school?"
"Sorry, got a HUGE test tomorrow."
"Oh…Saturday?"
"Taylor and I are going to a movie and then she's sleeping over."
"Do you ever have time for me anymore?"
And then, to my total surprise, he stomped away…
Was there some bf-gf rule stating that I had to devote ALL my time to him??? And on top of that, the musical wasn't going well. The set was a mess, Miss Darbus was trying to make troy sing high, Kelsey broke three fingers when she fell off her bike, and I was starting to have feelings for Ryan! Ugh.
"Hey Ryan!"
"Oh, hey Gabrella."
Then he started walking away. Was I ever going to get his attention? I tried everything! Cool hats, sparkly shirts, and even stupid dance moves. I knew it was wrong, since I had a boyfriend, but this was taking over me. It wasn't a crush…it was an obsession!
From troy's point of view:
Things were going great. I had a great girlfriend, was captain of an awesome basketball team, was a star in the musical, and my grades were better than ever…. Then, one day, something very…unexpected happened. I literally fell in love with Sharpay. I don't know what happened. All of the sudden, I wanted to be her boyfriend. I tried everything to get her eyes. I knew it was wrong, cause I had a girlfriend. Gabriella was great,, but she was ignoring me lately. Everytime I wanted to do something with her, she was already doing something with Taylor, or had a test or something. Was that a good enough excuse to like Sharpay???
