Gabriella Montez is a famous singer who visits East High Prep, a boarding school, one day..

"Everyone, settle down! We have a special guest today at EHPS. I'm sure you all know her. Miss Gabriella Montez is here to sing us a few songs."

The whole cafeteria goes crazy. The principal walks off down the stairs by the students in the auditorium and a young girl no more than sixteen appears on the stage. All the students yell and clap for her.

"Hey everyone! I'm Gabriella Montez. I'm here to sing you a few songs if you'd like." She says into a microphone.

The whole cafeteria goes crazy once again.

She laughs into the microphone and says, "I'm guessing that's a yes."

And meets a boy with gorgeous blue eyes

"Are you okay?" a boy asks as he helps Gabriella off the ground.

"Do I look like I'm alright?" Gabriella says angrily.

The boy looks at her confused as she wipes off her pants.

Gabriella just rolls her eyes and says, "What? Did you actually expect me to be nice? News flash: that side of me has been gone for a while."

"My name's Troy." The boy says while stretching out his hand for her to shake.

Gabriella rolls her eyes again and says, "So?"

Troy just rolls his eyes and turns to walk away.

When she's forced by her mother to come to East High Prep permanently,

"Mom!" Gabriella whines as they enter the school building.

Maria Montez turns around to face her daughter, which causes Gabriella to stop suddenly.

"Gabriella, I know you don't want to go to school, but I can't handle you anymore! You're a spoiled brat. You need to learn to be a lot less selfish."

Gabriella screams in frustration and follows her mother toward the principal's office. Gabriella's assistants pulling along her thirteen bags of luggage.

Does she actually hate Troy?

"Want to go grab something to eat?" Troy asks her.

Gabriella rolls her eyes and continues to text.

"Why would I want to go get something to eat with you?" She says with disgust.

Troy rolls his eyes and storms out of the room, fed up. She sighs to herself.

Or, did someone scare her so badly in the past that she's afraid to love?

"Girl, you know what I think?" Taylor asks Gabriella.

Gabriella doesn't respond, knowing Taylor will tell her anyway.

"I think you're scared to love him." Taylor says while stuffing her face with popcorn.

Gabriella ignores her and watches the movie while laying on her bed.

"H-h-h-h-e's back.." She stutters.
