Miss Independent
Pairing: Classic Troyella
Reasons to Read: This is a story I'm actually really excited to write!
Disclaimer: No, I do not own High School Musical! Stop asking!
Okay, so I've been thinking about writing a fanfic and I got this idea. Hope you like it!
Chapter 1
"Gabriella, umm, I've known you for some time now, and I was wondering if you would like to go out with me?"
Gabriella turned to look at Steven, her lab partner. "I'm so sorry, Steven but ummm I have to say no."
"O-Okay then."
Just then the bell rang and Steven dashed out of the classroom. Gabriella felt sorry for him. He didn't know that Gabriella Montez said no to every boy who asked her out or that she didn't believe in love. Gabriella grabbed her books and headed towards the cafeteria.
"Steven Maples asked me out today," Gabriella said as she put her tray down at the table. She, Taylor, Kelsi and Sharpay were sitting at their normal table that afternoon just like they did everyday.
"What'd you say?" Kelsi asked.
"No, of course. She always says no. Poor guys get up the courage to ask her and she shoots them down without giving them a chance." Taylor replied.
"You know it's not like that."
"C'mon Gabriella. You're pretty, smart, and a great singer. I'm better but that's not the point--" Sharpay started.
"What Sharpay's trying to say is that guys are going to like you, and you can't live the rest of your life lonely." Taylor said.
"Not lonely, just independent."
"Sure, enjoy spending your life independent living with your 27 cats."
Gabriella rolled her eyes at this and continued eating. She didn't need a man to keep her happy. All she needed were friends and family and she'd be fine right?
Later that Day
Troy Bolton was in the gym practicing his free throws. It was the wildcats basketball practice and he was in the zone. The sound of the coach's whistle rang through the gym, signaling the team to meet their coach.
"Okay guys everyone stretch and practice your lay ups. Troy come with me." Coach Bolton said. The rest of the team dispersed except Troy who stood there waiting for what his father had to say.
"Troy, when were you planning on telling me you had a D in Math."
"Next year, I don't know." Troy replied.
"This isn't funny, Troy. You know you need at least a C to stay on the team. Luckily I talked to your teacher and she said if you get at least a B on your upcoming exam your grade will be raised to a C."
"Okay, Dad, I'll spend all my free time studying."
"Too bad I don't believe that. So to make sure you actually do study, I arranged it so you can have a tutor."
"A TUTOR! Dad, I don't need some glasses wearing geek with suspenders to help me. What about Chad? He's smart!" Troy pointed over to Chad, who was currently sitting on the bleachers counting the dots on one of the basketballs.
"You're kidding me right? Troy, if you want to stay on this team, you need this tutor to help you. Plus it's not my fault you're almost failing Math."
"Fine, thanks a lot Dad!" Troy replied walking away from his dad.
"Your welcome son!"
Sorry it's kind of short but I just wanted to get it started. If you're wondering where I'm going with this, don't worry I am too. This will have a Troyella ending so they will meet each other. Just give it a chapter. Please review because I really appreciate what you guys have to say!
