Hey Guys ; well this is my first Fan Fic so I'm sorry if it doesn't live up to your standards yet! This chappies not too good I know, but I just wanted to introduce the story and Gabi and Troy ; please review with any ideas for the story line that you have - Thanks for reading (: Nicci xx

Gabriella Montez was the new girl at East High. She knew as soon as she stepped through the front doors of the school that she wouldn't fit in. Sure, she was pretty and had a figure that most girls would kill for, but she also had a secret that if people found out they would surely label her a freak. She could already see that everyone in the school was in their own little clique. She saw the skaters hanging out by the drinks machine, the jocks chilling with the cheerleaders by the lockers, the brainiacs with their eyes glued to history or science books. Then all of a sudden,

CRASH!

Troy Bolton looked up when he heard the alarming noise. He saw a petite Latino girl in a heap on the floor, obviously having collided with Sharpay, the glitter, pink wearing Ice Princess of East High. Troy rushed over to help the girl up, even though his friends shouted at him not to bother, he could hear Sharpay shouting that she had broke her nail, drama queen - as usual!

"Hey, um are you okay?" Troy asked as he extended his hand to the Latino

"Err yeah, I think, not exactly the impression I wanted to make on my first day though" She chuckled shyly

"Well, it wasn't exactly grace full" Troy laughed, but as he looked in to her eyes he noted that they were the most beautiful brown colour he had ever seen, but he could also see that they were tinged with sadness and insecurity. "I'm Troy by the way, Troy Bolton"

"Gabriella Montez"

Troy could here his friends calling him to hurry up, so he simply said "Nice to meet you, Brie" and walked off towards the lockers.

Gabriella's POV

I blushed like mad when he called me Brie! I've been in this school for like 2minutes and I've already found someone that makes me blush, how is that possible?

"You! You just broke my nail! Do you know how long it took the manicurist to paint it?!"

I looked at the girl talking, all I could see was pink and glitter, lots and lots of glitter.

"Um, I'm really sorry, I mean I didn't mean to!" I replied hastily, she looked really angry!

"Yeah, you will be.. Come on Ry! Lets go"

"Coming Shar"

It wasn't until they walked away that I noticed everyone was staring at me 'oh no' I thought. Thankfully, the warning bell went off at that moment, signalling it was time for homeroom.
