WHAT UP SONS?! Haha. I am currently jammin' to some sick tunes (Rehab by Rihanna just ended and now Love Story by Taylor Swift is playing, yes I know. You love these details.) I wanted to thank everyone who reviewed the first chapter, and who put this story on their alerts and favorites! You have no idea how much that makes me smile. Now I know, some of you are probably "wait...they just met and are already flirting..they barely know each others names! THAT IS SO WEIRD WHAT" But things do eventually slow down, maybe. Like I said, I am just writing this as I put it out lol. But again, I know how you guys love this fluff, so maybe I'll keep up with this pace lol.

AND I SAID, ROMEO SAVE ME I'VE BEEN FEELING SO ALONE. I KEEP WAITING, BUT YOU NEVER COME. IS THIS IN MY HEAD, I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO THINK. HE KNEELS TO THE GROUND AND PULLS OUT A RING AND SAID, MARRY ME JULIET-YOU NEVER HAVE TO BE ALONE, I LOVE YOU AND THAT'S ALL I REALLY KNOW! yes, i love that part of the song lol, and I want no drama about Taylor and Joe on here either. Don't hate on an amazing song.

Now onto some serious business. Apparently, I should win some sort of award for my Author's Notes because, well that's what Kait told me. I get told a lot that my Author's Notes are great. In the words of Kaitlin, "lmao i look forward to your Author's Note. I love them so much" well...she said something like that, along with Coralee who always loves them. They always IM me on yahoo and talk about it. I feel honored, ngl (not gonna lie), that my talents of...being weird and hilarious are being recognized (lol now people probably think I'm conceited...lmfao) . I would like to thank my mom, my dad, Zac Efron, uh...the people who invented spaghetti and the people who make my Chinese food (the Chinese people, omg ily) lmfao.

Speaking of Kaitlin, I would love for everyone of you (unless you don't want too lol), to head over to her account and read This Is Your Life. We are co-writing that and we'd love it if you read and reviewed it. IT MAKES ME SMILE AND WE ALL LOVE A HAPPY HEAT!!!!!! And a happy Kaitlin is great too :) -btw, Kait you should feel honored that I just talk about you all the time in my A/N's. It's like you are famous.

Without further ado, and well I'm sure you're sick of me just...talking on here, here is chapter two!


Gabriella woke up Saturday morning, laying on the floor next to large bodies. At first she was startled by the unrecognizable body, as she sat up she remembered she was still at Taylor's, for she and everyone else has decided to stay at her house.

She remembered that they had finally settled down in the house at about two in the morning. Gabriella had decided to sleep on the floor, she knew Taylor and Chad would be camping out in her room talking, or other things, for hours after everyone was sleeping. She remembered she decided to sleep on the rug in the living room, and finally remembered her and Troy were the lasts to fall asleep.

They had stayed outside talking while the gang was entering the house, they wanted to talk and get to know each other more. Gabriella didn't mind at all, after all they had been flirting the entire time they were at her house. She couldn't remember a time when she was just able to hangout with a boy and have things be laid back, but with Troy it was. He was very laid back, like Gabriella herself. She noted how easy he was to speak too, but she didn't want to look much too into it yet. He was a guy who was cute, very cute. He also had a great personality, could make her laugh, fun to be around.

Oh yeah, she wasn't thinking too much into it at all.

She sat her petite body up onto the couch where no one had slept. She looked over to the large clock hanging on the wall and realized it was 6:32 in the morning, she had only gotten about three hours of sleep, how the hell was she awake? She wondered to herself.

She saw the body she was nearest too stirring as he left his head. She rubbed his eyes to take in the light, he was adorable Gabriella thought to herself.

"Hey," Troy said with a yawn. "What time is it?" He asked her.

"Six-thirty" she whispered in return.

Troy chuckled, "Why are we awake?"

Gabriella joined his laughter, "I was wondering the same thing. It's much to early to be up when we didn't go to sleep until a couple of hours ago," she said with a giggle.

"Yeah," he said, letting a smile play onto his thin lips.

They let silence overcome them, until Troy motioned them to make their way outside so they didn't have to whisper around their friends as they slept. They made their way to a lounge chair near the pool. Gabriella curled up to the back, as Troy sat on the foot end of the chair. Gabriella let out a little chuckle.

"What's so funny?" Troy asked huskily, his voice not quiet awake yet.

"Yesterday in the pool," She said with a small smile.

"Oh yeah, you pushing me in. So hilarious," he said sarcastically.

"Oh don't lie, it was hot out here so you didn't mind the cool water!" Gabriella replied.

"Yeah, it was fun," he answered honestly. "I don't know what I'm going to do today now. Had fun yesterday and barely slept cause someone wanted to stay up and talk," he eyed her.

"Hey! You wanted to stay up too. Don't blame it all on me!"

Troy laughed, "Nah, it's okay. But really, I will probably go home and sleep."

"Yeah, me too. And a shower would be nice," She let out a sweet laugh out of her mouth.

Troy smiled at her angelic laugh, it was cute. He couldn't deny that Gabriella was gorgeous, intelligent-really intelligent at that, and was fun to be around. He was instantly attracted to her. He loved all the fun they had together yesterday, he wouldn't deny that.

Last night while they were talking he had found out that she was running yesterday, not for any training but just for the fun of running. Just as Troy had just been playing basketball for the fun of the game, although Gabriella wasn't on any team for running. He learned that she loved being occupied, being in motion, that she couldn't be bored doing nothing all day. That was definitely something he liked in a girl, not one where she just sat at her computer all day.

"Yeah," He said shortly, "But I better get going though. My parents are probably calling the house to make sure it's still safely on the ground and not burnt."

"Oh..." Gabriella said, not bothering to hide the disappointment in her voice. "Well we have to hangout again...right?" She asked, not sure what he would say.

Troy put on a glistening smile onto his lips, "Of course we do."

Troy stood up from the chair, as Gabriella followed as if he had demanded it but she did so naturally. She started making her way back into the house, before Troy had stopped her.

"What, no hug?" Troy said with a flirtatious smile, watching Gabriella make her way back to Troy. Standing on her toes, she wrapped her thin arms around his neck, resting her chin against his shoulder, feeling Troy wrap his arms around her waist. "I had fun with you," he whispered like someone would hear them.

"Me too," she said with a smile.

As he let go of her waist, he asked for her cell phone to enter his number, in case she wanted to "talk" later on if she was bored, or miraculously not tired from the lack of sleep.

"I'll see you later, Gabi?" He asked with hope laced in his voice.

"That you will," she replied, watching him make his way to the front lawn, walking his way to his house in the opposite direction as her was. Without acknowledging it, she had a smile on her face. She knew she would not be able to get him off her mind for a while, not that she wanted too.

"Well this sucks, why did he have to leave me here with unconscious people?" Gabriella laughed at her thought.

-

Gabriella laid on her bed, knees bent, listening to her favorite songs coming from her loud stereo. She had just got home three hours ago, after taking a nap and a shower she was full of energy. It was still nice outside but she hadn't felt like moving quiet yet, relaxing before she became too bored from doing nothing. If there was one thing she hated, it was being bored and wasting her time doing nothing, she always had to be doing something. She liked keeping busy and having fun whereas some people just rather relax all day. She couldn't do that, she would grow to antsy for that, she knew cause she tried once before.

She had changed into a light yellow basic tee-shirt, along with flared faded jeans, with a hole in the right knee. They had been worn out, that was for sure, but they were her favorite jeans. She wore them more often than any pair she had ever owned. They were too comfortable to now love wearing. She was weird, she loved a pair of jeans, but you can't deny one lovely pair of shredded, loose fitting jeans. Ask any girl.

She was a little worried that Troy hadn't called of texted her yet today, although she figured he was taking his nap or something other than thinking of her. He was a guy after all, they liked to focus more on their video games than anything. But, Troy seemed different than other boys. He liked sports and also liked to keep busy, like Gabriella. Maybe he just had other plans? He may have gotten sick from not sleeping? Or he didn't like her, and he hated when he realized she sucked at basketball?

And maybe she was thinking way too much into this. Yeah that seemed like a good thought.

"Lolli, lolli, lolli, lolli. Let me see you pop that body" She sang to herself as the song played from her stereo, as she thought of more reasons as to why the blue eye God hadn't spoke to her.

"Ugh, stop!" She cursed to herself.

As she spoke the words, it was almost as if he had heard her thoughts, she felt her cell phone vibrate on her stomach. She panicked for what it could say, she debated whether she should have read it or not. He may have wanted to hang out, or maybe it was a mistake to text her.

"Stop it, Gabriella. You will never know unless you flip the damn phone open," she said to herself. It was a habit that she just started today thinking about him. She took a breath before opening the phone. Twiddling with her thin fingers, she slightly opened the phone and slammed it shut. "Fuck my life," she whispered. Taking another breath she finally opened the phone.

"Hey," he said. She was nervous for that? What was wrong with her? Oh that's right, she liked a boy she had just met yesterday. Damn love, or, crushes. Damn boys.

She quickly typed her response, "Hi there," she said, pressing the green 'Send' button.

Before she knew it, he replied.

"What are ya doing over there?" He said. Well other than thinking about him every second since he left her this morning, nothing.

"Um, nothing really. Thinking about going out and doing something," she typed.

"Like what?"

"I don't know...I haven't been roller blading in a while, so maybe that."

"That sounds fun," He responded.

"Here's your chance Gabriella. Ask him," She told herself. Her fingers started shaking uncontrollably for her response, as she typed she continued misspelling words, she hadn't known what to say but she wanted to see him. She finally sent her reply, "Um yeah. You should join me, I'd like the company."

Her butterflies erupted in the pit of her stomach, not knowing what he would say to her. He could say no. He might say he can't or doesn't want too. Or he may have broken his legs since she seen him while he was walking a slow pace to his house.

"Yeah, that sounds fun," or he might say yes. She squealed to herself. Her heart racing, it was now going a thousand miles an hour. He said yes, she couldn't believe it. She kept reading the text over again, then realized ten minutes had passed and he is probably wondering what is taking her so long to reply.

"Okay, I'll be around in about ten or fifteen minutes. Hopefully you can keep up with me :)" She sent.

"Well see about that Brie :)" She squealed again. Wait, what? He called her 'Brie'? No one ever called her that, her heart became to flutter. He had a nickname for her. Her own nickname from Troy. Her feet started to kick on her bed from the excitement, her smile erupting her thin, glossed, lips.

Gabriella ran to her closet to grab a fresh pair of socks so her feet wouldn't blister from the blades. As she slid them on in a hurry, she grabbed a pair or blue flip flops in case they would stop blading and walk around. She quickly made her way to her one door garage, locating her black blades. As she latch them, she couldn't help but think about all the scenerios and conversations they could have.

"STOP!" She yelled to herself again, "you are thinking way to much into...roller blading with...the most gorgeous boy in..the world. With the best smile ever." She thought for a second, "fuck my life," she cursed again.

-

Troy paced his house, attempting to make time pass quicker before Gabriella would arrive. He had his blades placed by the front door, he was simply waiting until the last possible second to put them on. He had made sure he smelt decent, which he did. He used his Axe body wash when he got home from Taylor's that morning. He made sure the house was clean, for if she had come inside he wouldn't look like his family lived in a mess of a house, which was impossible since his mother cleaned it obsessively. The empty house seemed much larger when he was alone, he couldn't help but prance around once Gabriella said she'd like his company for blading, the large house seemed much larger when he ran with excitement.

Wearing a dark navy blue polo, sculpting his muscular arms and his muscular body, with tan cargo shorts. It was too hot for him to wear jeans that day, and that jeans were uncomfortable to wear in his thoughts.

Troy looked at the clock for the seventeenth time while waiting for Gabriella. He had figured she would be here soon.

"I am almost there," She just texted him, as if it were time work and she knew he was wondering when she'd arrive.

He smiled as he typed his response, "I'll be ready for ya :)" he pressed the green 'Send' button. He slid the phone into his back pocket, and grabbing his backpack, to carry his baldes in later. with his iTouch in the side pocket of the bag. They may talk about music, and he might need his iTouch. Who knew what would happen? Maybe she would want to look at it, which seemed to happen whenever someone noticed he had the expensive device.

He started latching his blades, grabbing his brown leather sandals in hand, in case then stopped somewhere and needed to wear something other than blades. He made his way out the front door to see the beauty of a Goddess entering his driveway.

She looked up to him, her toffee colored eyes connecting with his ocean blues. She let a large smile onto her freshly glossed lips, Troy letting a smile grow onto his also. She is gorgeous, he thought to himself.

"Hi," Gabriella said shyly.

"Hey," Troy responded.

"Are you ready?" She asked, although she knew she should have known the answer seeing as he had his blades on and sandals in hand, as she did.

Troy laughed, "Yeah, I am. Let's get going Montez."

"Alright, Mr Bolton," She smiled.

"Don't call me that," he said as they both laughed, "I don't want to think of my dad when I'm with you," he smiled widely.

"Alright," she said.

They made their way blading down the street on the warm day. For the first few minutes, no words were exchanged, both trying to conspire of how to start their conversation for the time being. Finally they settled on a neutral conversation, Chad and Taylor. They both laughed how the two couldn't seem to just get together and just "best around the bush" in Troy's words. Eventually the conversation got more in depth and got to more interesting topics. The began to speak of a song that Troy had liked, Gabriella had never heard, with that Troy was able to take out his iTouch.

"Oh, you have one of those things," Gabriella said with interest.

"Yeah, it's pretty cool," Troy said, scrolling through the songs finding the right one. As he found it he placed one ear phone in his ear, the other he handed to Gabriella who placed it in her ear. Looking down to the device, Gabriella finding it too interesting and forgot to pay attention as to where she was going.

"Ow!," She said as she fell to the ground after rolling over a branch that was laying in the road.

Troy burst into laughter, "Here," he said, lending out his large hand to help her up. "You aren't the most graceful person on your own two feet," he joked.

Gabriella took his hand, rolling her eyes laughing along with him. "Yeah, you could say that," she said as she was stable on her feet.

Troy smiled a glistening smile that could give the sun a run for its money, if it had money. Gabriella couldn't help but smile in response to his gorgeous one. They continued to blade through the town, not letting go of each others hands. As Gabriella noticed he hadn't let go of hers, she felt herself flutter once again that day. She could get used to that feeling.

"Oh, I love this song!" Gabriella yelled out, suddenly as she scrolled through Troy's songs.

"What song?" He asked, not quite sure as to what song she was talking about.

Gabriella handed over one of the ear phones to Troy, taking it placing it into lobe, hearing the familiar, and yet very popular song.

Do you catch a breath when I look at you? Are you holding back like the way I do? Cause I've tried and tried to walk away. But I know this crush ain't going away. Troy heard singing, he laughed.

"You like that song? Of course, it's basically for girls anyways," Troy continued laughing.

Gabriella shot him a glare, "Excuse me, but apparently you listen to it too since this is on your iTouch."

Troy blushed, "Okay, it's a good song!"

Gabriella let out a giggle, "Told you so."

"Oh you think your bad ass now for proving me wrong?" Troy said, slyly.

"I am bad ass, what are you talking about?" Gabriella laughed.

"Oh we'll see who is a bad ass," Troy said, tugging her arm over to the side of the ground, falling on the grass pulling her down to the ground, laughing at her falling down with him.

He looked down at her, laughing at the fun they were having, resting her hand on his chest, lifting herself up from the grass. "That was so mean!" She said through her laughter.

Troy laughed along with her, "That's what you get." He said, resting his large hand on her small waist.

Gabriella caught her breath at the touch of his cool hand. Not only had they been holding hands today, but he was touching her waist. If she didn't think enough about him, she would definitely think about this day and all the touches they had done. "Too much fun," she said.

"No such thing as too much fun," Troy said surely.

Gabriella finally got herself to sit up, "That is true."

They continued talking in the grass, resting their legs, enjoying each others company. Hours passed as they sat in the grass. Troy had sat up staring intently at her, his legs bent, resting his arms on his knees. Gabriella sitting Indian style, deep into the conversation they were sharing, as people walked by the twosome. The changed out of their blades, started walking toward her house as it was getting late in the day.

They reached her house, neither wanting the day to end, but both exhausted from the long and enjoyable day they had together.

"I still don't get how you can wear jeans when it's this hot out here," Troy said as they walked up her driveway.

"It's jeans? There isn't much to get. Also, they are my favorite jeans and...I ran out of shorts to wear," Gabriella said with a laugh.

Troy joined her adorable laughter. "Well those spandex you were wearing yesterday made your ass look good," he said, jokingly and yet meaning every word.

Gabriella grew a repulsed look, "You looked at my ass?!" She turned her neck to look at her back side as though she could see it in her loose fitting jeans. "That is...not very..." Gabriella blushed.

Troy laughed more, "It's okay. You have a great ass, I'll be honest."

Gabriella blushed more as she believed he was telling the truth, "thanks..."

"Don't be ashamed."

"Well, if it means anything, you have a good ass too," Gabriella smiled, trying to get out of her embarrassment.

"Thanks, I do butt exercises to get it to look as great as it does now!" He said jokingly, letting himself laugh and Gabriella joining it.

"You make me laugh too much," she said.

"You like it."

Gabriella smiled, looking down to her feet, pushing a strand of hair behind her ear. As they reached her front porch she placed her blades off to the side.

"Well, thanks for hanging out with me today...and yesterday."

"No problem, it was fun," he said, she watched him grow a genuine smile. "One time, we are going to hangout and you won't trip over something. I can see it happening."

Gabriella laughed, "I hope so," she whispered.

"Well...um, I'll s-see you later?" He said with hope.

She nodded, "you can count on it," smiling a shy smile.

"Bye, Brie," He said making his way off the porch, to the sidewalk, with his blades in his backpack, stuffing his hands in his front pockets, not that Gabriella was watching him or anything. Once she lost view of him, she sat on the chairs on the porch. As she sat, she kicked her feet out in front of her.

"He is so cute!" She said to herself. She sat in the chair thinking of everything they spoke of that day, the hand holding, him touching her waist. She had to see him again, soon. There was nothing she wanted to do more than spend time with him.

Gabriella then felt her phone vibrate in her pocket. A text message from none other than him.

"I don't think I've ever been more nervous about holding anyones hand as I was to hold yours :)" He said.

With that Gabriella felt herself flutter, melt and a large beaming smile grow onto her lips.

She quickly typed her response, "I don't think I have ever been so nervous for that either. I had a lot of fun with you Troy." With that she heard her mothers car enter the driveway.

"Hey mom," She said, looking down to her phone, waiting for him to quickly reply to her.

"Hey, sweetie. How was your day?" Maria asked her teenage daughter.

Gabriella smiled, "It was nothing short of amazing," she said honestly.

"Oh really? What did you do?"

Gabriella felt her phone vibrate, she flipped it open.

"Good :)" With that Gabriella closed her phone, not knowing how she could respond. "I had fun with...a friend," she said with a smile.

Her mother smiled, "This friend seems to be a boy. And from the smile on your face, a very cute boy."

"You have no idea," She said honestly.
