Gabriella wrapped her curly short length dark brown hair around her finger. She looked around the pool; and stared at the frantic mothers, little kids running around, but then a group of teenagers caught her eye. Well, actually it was more of a certain teenager that caught her especially. He had dark brown hair. It was shaggy and only reached below his nose. Gabriella adored his piercing blue eyes and perfectly tanned skin. He must be pretty popular Gabriella thought. She looked down at her own incase he got a glimpse of her. She was wearing a red two-piece. It was one of the many perks of being the head lifeguard at the Albuquerque Community Center. She had moved to Albuquerque in July. Her mom had been tired of her constantly using the last remaining weeks of her summer to call old friends and continue to be homesick. So she told Gabriella to get a job, and off of her butt and start making some friends. That was a month ago. Gabriella noticed the cute boy she spotted earlier coming toward her. She began to look away and focused on a little girl jumping off the diving board. "Do you know where I can get a band-aid?" He asked with an unsure voice. "Sure, you make a left from the main pool. And then you'll see a big building. Go to the front desk and ask for Judy." Gabriella said still looking away. " Um… Thanks. I'm Troy." He said his hand reaching out for her to shake it. Gabriella finally turned around and said " No Problem. I am Gabriella but my friends call me Gabby." Gabriella said as she shook his hand. "Nice to meet you, Gabriella." Troy replied walking away. "You too." Gabby called after him. She watched him walk towards his exclusive group of friends. About thirty minutes later Gabriella's shift was up and it was time for the next lifeguard to take over. Gabriella walked into the changing room and put on a pair of white Bermuda shorts and a pink t-shirt. After stuffing all her clothes into locker she walked outside into the parking lot waiting for Torri to pick her up. Gabriella had met Torri a few years ago at a sleep away camp. So when Mrs. Montez announced to Gabriella and Stella that they were moving to Albuquerque, New Mexico. She was immediately rejoiced that it had been Torri's hometown as well. Gabriella saw a white Mercedes Convertible pull into the parking lot. Driving the car was a girl with medium length auburn- red hair. It was curly and layered. She had lightly tan skin, and was wearing a baby blue tank top, and some denim blue shorts. This girl happens to be Torri. She pulled up in front of Gabriella and she hopped in. "What's up Gabby? The creamery was pretty cold if you know what I mean?" Torri said then chuckled at her joke. "Nothing much except I met a guy name Troy." "You mean Troy Bolton?" "I think so why do you know him?' Gabriella asked worried. "Let's just say he's quite famous around here if you know what I mean." Torri said as pulled into Gabriella's driveway. The Montez house had been built to represent the families' Spanish heritage. It looked a lot like the Hollywood- style houses straight out of the movies. It was perfect according to the Montez's. There was a small garden on one side. On the other were a hammock and a side porch. In the back there is a pool and a Jacuzzi. To finish it off there was a small pool house in the back. "So Torri, call me and tell me everything you know about him." Gabriella said as she got out of the car.
