Gabriella Montez sighed as she walked into the small apartment that she shared with her boyfriend, Ryan Evans.

It was 11:30 and he was still no where to be found, even after he hadn't been around all day.

In all actuality, Gabriella knew where he was, she just hated to say it.

She had know about Aurora Foster since the first time they had met at Lava Springs Country Club years back.

She also knew how Ryan had a "thing" for her, even though he caught her kissing Jason Cross while they were dating.

Gabriella also knew that he didn't care that she had hurt him, he just saw what was right in front of him: gorgeous dark blonde hair, a killer smile, and a nice body.

What he saw in her she didn't know, but she knew that ever since they ran into Aurora when they were at the mall however, he had not been the same since.

Gabriella finally realized her worst fear was coming true before her eyes when she had come home and found one of Ryan's shirts in the floor, and it smelled oddly of a light flowery scent, something that Gabriella had never worn before, something she knew wasn't hers.

He denied it all, said it was Sharpay's perfume, she hugged him, It got on his shirt. It was always Sharpay.

Sharpay was Ryan's path to get out of trouble. Sharpay was his pathway out of his own sin.
