Chapter 2 New house Chapter 2 New house

Last chapter:Just as she turned around to sitting normal again she felt someone tap on her shoulder.

She jumped and quickly turned around shocked. "Are you Gabriella Montez?"

A woman with brown long hair asked.

Now: "uhh yep that's me" she looked behind the woman to see an older man and a boy listening to his ipod looking down at it.

He looked about 17 maybe even 18.

The man looked about 40 he had blue eyes also dark brown hair his skin was tanned but faded by age.

Her eyes wandered to the boy.

He had golden brown hair the kind that when the sun shines on it, it looks gold. His skin was tanned. She looked closely to his eyes. They were bright blue like the ocean she had been staring at for about 5 hours.

He was wearing a plain black shirt with dark blue nearly black skinny jeans. And some black and white checked vans on.

"I'm Lucille Bolton this is my husband jack and this is our son troy" the woman said while pointing to each as she said.

"Hello Gabriella it's nice to finally meet you." Jack said while smiling politely. Gabriella smiled back

"Troy Bolton stop being so rude. Take those head phones out of your ears and say hello to Gabriella"

He sighed and looked at his mother. She rolled her eyes at him and put her hand out. He sighed again and passed his ipod to her.

Troy looked at Gabriella taking in all her features. From her soft brown eyes to her shiny, bouncy brown hair.

"Hey" was all he could say.

"Hi" she smiled kindly before looking down shyly. He also looked away.

"Well lets get going then go see your new home" Lucille said breaking the awkward silence between Gabriella and troy.

"Okay" Gabriella said while picking up her bags.

"No it's ok let me get them for you. They must be heavy" jack said while carefully taking the cases from her. She nodded silently with a small smile then looked down

When they were half way to the car park Lucille started talking "troy why don't you tell Gabriella what its like here, get to know her"

Troy looked at Gabriella.

"Okay. So Gabriella how old are you?" he asked. Even though she was moving into his house, he knew about as much about her as she knew about his whole family.

"I'm 16. Turning 17 in about a month. You?" she asked back. "Just turned 17 about 2 weeks ago"

"Cool. So what stuff do you do around here?" she asked

"Well nothing really. I mean there's a park, a bowling alley which is totally awesome, a mall but it's not very big but I guess it has cool stuff there "

"Sounds fun" Gabriella replied plainly. Troy just chuckled quietly.

After about 3 more minutes of walking and talking, they all finally made it to the car.

Lucille and jack sat in the front and Gabriella and troy sat in the back.

For the entire car ride I was mostly silent apart from a few coughs.

After about 15 minutes they were there at the house well to Gabriella it seemed like a mansion.

Where she used to live people didn't really have much money so they didn't have very big houses.

"Nice house" Gabriella complimented truthfully.

"Well thank you Gabriella" Lucille replied.

"That's okay and please call me gabby"

"Alright Gabby"

They walked inside.

Gabby looked around it was even nicer inside then it was outside.

It had big white double doors to get inside then there was a nice wide hallway. In the hallway the floor was smooth and wooden. There were a couple of doors and a big white staircase.

"Well gabby do you want to go see your new room" jack offered.

Gabby nodded "okay sure." She answered

"Uhh troy can you show gabby her new room" Lucille asked politely.

"But mom I g…' he started.

"Please troy" she tried again.

"Fine" he sighed and started walking towards the stairs gabby followed.

They started walking down a long corridor until troy finally stopped in front of a door that read 'GABBRIELLAS ROOM'.

He opened the door "okay this is your room you got computer, TV and all that stuff and you also have a balcony," he said while giving her a short tore of the room. "Cool" she whispered to her self. "Yea so um I gotta go out bye" he turned around quickly and walked out.

"Bye" she said back but he was already gone.

Downstairs troy grabbed his car keys and started walking to the door. Just as he was going to open the door his mother stopped him.

"Where do you think your going?" she asked strictly.

"I gotta date with Becker," he said with a little shrug.

"I thought you broke up with her last week' she replied confused.

"I was going to but before I got a chance she asked if I wanted to go to the movies with her so I said yes where going to see disaster movie" he answered with a tiny smirk "isn't that supposed to be really bad' she asked confused again "I dunno, but I think it looks good"

"Well you still can't go I want you to show Gabriella around" she said with a stern voice while shutting the door as troy tried to open it.

"But…"

"No you can get it on DVD or go and see it another day"

"Ugh fine' she dragged himself to the stairs and slowly walked up them.

When he got too gabbys room he knocked lazily.

"Come in" he heard from the other side of the door.

He walked in to see gabby standing on her balcony. She turned around " I thought you had to go out?" she asked.

"My mom suggested I show you around, you know so you don't get lost and stuff"

"Oh you don't have to if you don't want to" she said while shaking her head.

"Don't worry its no problem c'mon" he smiled. she smiled back a started walking towards him.

About 4 minutes later they were walking down the sidewalk. I was quite sunny here today.

"So uhh is this the first time you've moved away from your parents." He asked breaking their awkward silence. She looked down.

"Well actually I lived with my aunt and uncle. My mom and dad died when I was younger." She looked down.

"Oh I'm sorry" she looked down also. "Its okay. It wasn't your fault," she said as she looked up.

"So um why exactly did you move here? Not that we don't want you here but uhh. Oh you know what I mean." He asked she giggled and looked around.

"Well a few months ago my uncle quit his job and ever since then my aunt and uncle had been struggling to pay the bills. But then my aunt gets pregnant and since they don't have enough money to pay for all 4 of us someone had to move out. But im sure its nice here to even if I am god knows how far away from the only people left in my family that I actually know of" she said.

"Oh so you've been through quite a lot haven't you" "yep" she answered.

They saw a bench and went to sit down.

"Oh so um not to be nosey and you don't have to answer if you don't want to, but how exactly did your mom and dad die" he asked carefully.

"Well my mom and dad had just got married and they were on their way home from their honey moon in Egypt and the plane crashed. I was 15. I don't really know why my mom and dad decided to get married so late. I mean they were like 44 or something. But now I wish they didn't at all. I know it sounds selfish but if they didn't I bet they would probably still be alive right now" she looked down as tears started to well in her eyes.

"Wow." Was all he could say. He had no clue what he would do if his parents died

He looked down at her and noticed the tears in her soft brown eyes.

"Hey don't worry. It's okay." He said calmly as he hugged her.

At first gabby felt stiff but soon relaxed into his warm body and hugged back.

After about 1 minute of sitting in silence and just hugging, troy decided to speak.

"Do you wanna go the park over there" he said, as he pulled away and pointed behind some trees where you could see a small park.

She looked where his finger was pointing and nodded. "Ok" She replied.

They got up and started walking towards the park.

When they were about 10 yards away from the park troy said "race you to the swings"

With a small smirk

"Your on" she said as she started running.

They ran all the way to the park and to Troy's surprise I was a tie.

"Your quite fast aren't you," he asked

"Yep I used to do all kinds of sports and sometimes I'd do running. It's not really my favorite though"

"Cool I play basketball at school im actually the captain of the team" he informed her.

"That's cool. I was captain of the cheerleading squad in my old school."

"Cool so you gonna try for the cheerleading squad at our school" he asked

"I dunno. Probably not," she answered shaking her head.

"Why not?" he asked confused.

"I don't want to I guess. But does your school have dance club?" she asked interested.

"I don't really know I guess it must have." He shrugged.

She giggled, "oh my god it's your school and you don't even know what clubs it's got"

"I only do basketball. I don't look at the other clubs." He defended himself.

"Whatever." She replied as she sat on the swing.

After 15 minutes in the park they decided to go sit under a tree by the lake.

"So do you have any brothers or sisters or boyfriends" troy asked

"Nope. You?" she asked back

"I don't have a brother or a sister but I do have a girlfriend but I don't really like her " she answered

"Why you with her then?'' she asked, "to be really honest I have no clue" he said as he looked at the lake.

"I guess she is just if you say something bad to her she will threaten you or something I mean not to sound big headed or anything but she literally begged me to go on one date with her I mean how sad is that. Lately she's been trying to get me into bed. She try's so hard It's getting so ridiculous. She should just see that im not interested. She probably has aids anyway you do not wanna know how many boys she slept with and to be honest neither do I. And between you and me im still a virgin" he looked down and blushed.

She laughed and lifted his head and looked into his eyes. "Troy don't be embarrassed lots of kids our age are virgins I am to"

"Yea but im supposed to be the most popular guy in the school im supposed to have slept with all the cheerleaders and all" he sighed.

"No your not where the hell did you hear that crap" she asked with a little giggle.

"My friends" she said looking at her.

"Troy they are talking crap. You don't have to be a man whore because they said you're supposed to be one. You're your own person," she told him.

"Yea your right" she said with a small grin.

"Do you have any nick names apart from gabby" troy asked randomly.

"Whoa that was random," she giggled. " And no I don't why?"

"Just wondering. Can I make a new one?" he asked politely.

"Yea if you want" she said with a shrug.

"Okay so does anyone call you Ella or… brie?" He asked.

"Brie. I never heard that one."

"You know gaBRIElla so for short brie"

"Okay cool so do you have any nicknames?" she asked "nope" he answered plainly.

"Okay well this is gonna be hard what the heck can be a nick name for troy" she stopped and started thinking. Troy shrugged.

"What about… troy boy" she said joking around and laughed at the name. "Okay" Troy said. "No wait what you want me to call you troy boy?" she asked surprised. "I don't mind," he said. with a shrug. "Your weird, but okay" she said "im not weird you said the name"

"Yea but I was joking" she defended. "Well so am I about this"

Suddenly he started ticking her.

Gabby screamed "aaahhhhh troy get off me" she said laughing really hard. "No say you're sorry and im not weird" he demanded "never" she shouted "you leave me no choice then" he tickled her harder. She screamed again. "I-I cant breath" she said trying to contain her laughter. Troy laughed with her. "Ok I'll say it. Im sorry I called you weird. Because you're not weird" she said really trying to breath.

He stopped "good girl" she said as he patted her head. "Weirdo" she mumbled quietly. "What was that" he asked. "nothing" she replied.
