Who Can Say If I've Been Changed for the Better? Chapter 1: DroppedBy musiclover94
The sales from Gabriella Montez's latest album, Angel, had come in. George Martin, manager of Des Records, was confident that the record had sold well, as had her first album. He nearly dropped the page that said that the album had sold a startling 600,000 copies since its release last summer. The millions the label had spent on advertising, billboards, everything amounted to almost no profit.
George had called Gabriella and her manager, Gina Montez into a conference to discuss future records.
"Gabriella, we are dropping you from the label." he said shortly.
Gina looked shocked and appalled while Gabriella widened her eyes purely for George's benefit.
"W-what?" Gina sputtered.
"You signed a contract, Mrs. Montez, saying that we could drop Gabriella at any time." he said, pulling out the document. She quickly read it over while Gabriella was on her phone texting someone.
"What are we going to do now, Mom?" Gabriella asked on the way to their Los Angeles home.
"Well, you'll go back to high school, sweetie." Her mother said, still dazed from the meeting, trying to work the windshield wipers against the torrential rain pouring down that made it hard to see.
"MOM, LOOK OUT!" Gabriella screamed as a wrong way-driving vehicle crashed into their car.
Author's Note: Ok, this chapter stunk and was really short, but it was kind of a prologue. The next chapters will be better, I promise. Please review! The title might change. You can send me title ideas. I will credit you.
