Summary: Troy and Gabriella want to date but Troy thinks that they should hold off until basketball season was over so they would have more time together. Gabriella says that she would wait but he doesn't come back. Two-shot, Troyella

Troy and Gabriella were in the gym after school, they were the last ones left.

"I really think that we should wait until basketball season is over," Troy said. They wanted to go out but they both had such hectic schedules, mostly on Troy's part.

"But why? I mean there is only two more months left in basketball season, we can make it that long," Gabriella said. She had been waiting for this to happen forever and now that it finally had she wasn't going to let it go.

"Brie, let's just wait. I promise that we'll get together after basketball season. I don't want you to feel lie I'm, ignoring you for basketball," Troy said walking towards her.

Gabriella knew that she wasn't going to win this one so she got up and started to walk out of the gym. "Just come to me," Gabriella said before leaving. She didn't understand why he didn't want to go out now.

The school's talent show was coming up in a week and se was going to sing in it. She already had a song in mind but now she was thinking something totally different.

One week later, talent show.

Everyone was sitting in the audience. Sharpay and Ryan had gone to sit with their friends after they had done their song. Gabriella was the last one and she was up next.

"And here is Gabriella Montez," Ms. Darbus yelled into the microphone. Gabi took a deep breath and walked out on stage. Kelsi started playing the piano with the other instruments.

Picture it perfect
Don't hesitate to live your dreams
It's more than worth it
If you know what you wanna be

People started clapping along with the beat. Gabriella kept her eyes on her friends, mostly Troy though. He wasn't moving, just staring straight back at her.

Why wait
When now is the right time
Today
Could just pass you by
Why wait
It's your turn, it's your life
The future is what we make
So why wait

Gabriella had told all of the girls what had happened the after noon that it had happened. She remembered all of their reactions.

"WHAT?" They all yelled out after she had finished explaining it to him. Ryan came into Sharpay's room hearing the noise, which must have been pretty loud considering his room was at the other end of the house. After they explained it to him he ran to his room to call all of the guys.

"I can't believe it. You two finally get together and he tells you to wait?" Sharpay yelled. The gang had tried many times to get them together and none of them had worked.

"Yeah," Gabi said sighing.

"I'm so sorry Gabi," Taylor said. She and Kelsi went over and hugged her, Sharpay was pacing the length of her room.

"When I see that asshole I swear he is going to regret this," Sharpay said. All of the girls looked at each other worried of what she was going to try and do.

"Sharpay calm down," Gabriella said taking sharpay by the shoulders and leading her to sit on her hot pink bed.

"How can you tell me to calm down when the guy you like asks you out and then tells you just to sit around and wait for him?" Sharpay said.

"I'm fine with waiting as long as it isn't for two long. Two months or more, he is gone, out of my mind. Okay?" Gabriella asked. Sharpay nodded. She looked at the other two girls who nodded also.

Even after Sharpay said she wouldn't kill him she still started yelling at him until Zeke came over and calmed her down. That is one day no one will forget. The guys were just as mad but they couldn't let their captain be killed by an angry drama queen.

Troy just stood there looking scared. Troy and Gabriella hadn't properly talked since that day and it was probably going to be that way until her came to her.

He knew she was angry at him and he didn't blame her but he didn't want her to get hurt. He had already promised himself that he would go back and ask her out after basketball season was over, he wanted to be with her as much as she wanted to be with him, which was hopefully a lot.

Gabriella started to sing in Spanish. Sure most of the people couldn't understand what she was saying but it made the song even better. They all knew she was Spanish but none of them knew that she could make a language that none of them could understand so beautiful.

Troy knew some of the words that she was sing because she had taught him. That way they could talk without being listened to. He thought it was beautiful and knew what she wanted but he didn't want to give it to her, not yet anyways, he wanted to make her happy but he couldn't if it meant hurting her later on.

Ohh…aqui estas conmigo
(Oh you're here right now)
Para vivir y cumplir tus suenos
(Go for the dream that you've always had)
Y luchar por lo que has querido
(Cause you decide when and how it turns out)

Encuentra tu luz...sigue, vive
sin miedo
(so shine your brightest…never hold back)
Why wait...you're ready to do this

No way…you can ever be stopped

As the song got slower people stopped clapping and just stood and listened. She closed her eyes blinking away any stray tears that might havee gathered in her eyes.

The beat of the song sped up and she started dancing around the stage jumping and clapping when there was a pause in the lyrics.

Why wait
When now is the right time
Today
Could just pass you by
Why wait
It's your turn, it's your life

The future is what we make
So why wait

Why wait

Tomorrow could be so far away

Or already here

Why wait

Just gotta let go

You've gotta believe in yourself all the way.

You know that you've got what it takes

So why wait

After the song was done everyone clapped for her. Troy understood what she was saying but he still didn't want to go out.

As all of the gang went to see her after the show he stayed behind and eventually left.

"What did you think," Gabriella asked when she saw all of her friends, all but one.

"I loved it!" Taylor said. They all hugged her one at a time. "Where did you fins that song?" Sharpay asked.

"I wrote it just about five days ago. That is where I've been every single free period, in the music room with Kelsi practicing. I had her promise not to tell any of you because I wanted it to be a surprise. Where's Troy?" She asked.

"Uhh, he had to go and get tires," Chad said. They all looked at him weirdly but Gabriella kept her head down.

"I get it guys, he didn't come. It's fine. It'll only be two months right?" She asked, non of them answered. She walked away from them sadly.

So what do you think? The second chapter will hopefully be up by tomorrow, at the most two days from now. Volleyball practice has started again and it goes until five thirty.

Please review and like I say on all of my stories, I don't care if you hated it please just review and tell me what you think. Yes, I know, kind of short.

Amanda!
