Carefully throwing the last of my three pink suitcases in thee back of my moms black suburban I knew my time was up and I was going to the hell hole called my dad's house.

My parents had divorced when I was just 4 years old. I never really understood until I was 7,and my dad brought home another woman. Hilary. I still remembered her long fake ass extensions and annoying voice. Practically the older version of Sharpay. That was just the begging of the many woman to come. I haven't seen my dad in over eight years, this was gunna be great. He was never there before so, I honestly wish my mom would explain to me why I have to spend two weeks with him.

"Gabi, I'm going to miss you so much, you have to promise to text me every day, so I can tell you everything these two lunkheads are up to!" My best friend Taylor said pointing at Troy and Chad. I giggled and gave my friend a huge hug.

" I promise Tay." I replied smiling. Now Chad he wasn't too hard to say bye to. Just a one armed side hug and a simple wink from the basketball boy. Suddenly tears started to prick the back of my eyes, when I looked at the two most beautiful blue eyes.

"Troy…" I started but my voice cracked, and he swiftly pulled me into a hug.

"Gabriella I'm gonna miss you, just keep me up to date on your summer and it will all be over soon." He whispered in my ear. I just nodded soaking his red wildcat shirt with my tears. Why was I so vulnerable?

"Gabriella Montez, we have go to go or you'll miss your flight!" I heard my mom yell.

"Is that a promise?" I muttered into Troy's chest. He chuckled slightly and ran his fingers softly through my brunette waves. See this was perfect, why couldn't I stay here and have this all summer? I sighed and untangled myself from his death grip.

"I love you Troy." I stated looking deeply into his eyes, this was all of me.

"I love you Gabriella." He replied before ducking his head down and pressing his lips to mine in a soft sweet caress. I had to pull away or I wouldn't be seeing my dad. Hmmmm… maybe I should kiss him again.

"Gabriella NOW!" I heard my mom practically bark from her car.

"Bye guys." I mumbled before jumping in my car and strapping myself in, this was going to be a long ride.

After about 30 minutes we arrived at the Albuquerque airport. I was actually leaving, this sucks. I did everything I was supposed to do and then finally my flight was here.

"Gabriella mija I will miss you so much, your so grown up." My mom said sweetly hugging me and softly crying. So of course I started crying, I should really invest in waterproof mascara.

"Bye mami, I Love you." I said hugging her tight and then kissing her cheek.

"I'll call you as soon as my flight lands bye mom" I said before picking up my bright pink luggage and making my way to my summer.

2 hours later….

Oh great, I was here. Now I just had to look for my dad. Where was he? Too bad I hadn't seen him in forever, ugh this was gunna be hard.

"Gabriella?' A tanned looking man asked me.

"Yes?" I replied slightly confused and tired.

"Gabi its me, your dad." He replied. I knew a look of shock had gone across my face I felt it. Well wasn't this just the most awkward moment in the world.

"Oh hey Dad!" I replied shifting uncomfortably from side to side. Yup definitely awkward.

"Lets get your stuff and grab something to eat" He managed to get out after about two minutes of awkward silence. I just nodded completely dazed, and followed him to his car.

"I hope you don't mind. But I have work tonight so I thought I'd just grab something quick like McDonalds.'' He said while we started to get on the Dallas high way.

"That's fine." I said while picking at the bright pink nail polish on my small finger nails. So that's where we went with just some conversation. Pretty much the normal how you been? you've grown up! Your so beautiful stuff.

"What would you like?" He asked me pulling into the drive through.

"Ummm, a Big Mac is fine." I answered hurriedly. No need to keep the man waiting. But what I didn't expect was for him to scoff and roll his eyes.

"Is there something wrong?" I asked quietly

"Well, wouldn't you rather have something healthy like a salad? I mean really Gabriella we wouldn't you getting any bigger than you already are." he said harshly.

"Excuse me?!" I shot back. Mistake number one because I soon found his hand connected to my cheek and blood trickling down my chin.

"You will not use that tone of voice with me you little bitch! I try looking out for you and your fat ass and this is what I get in return!" He yelled harshly in my face. At this point I was terrified and hurting.

"I'll have a salad." I whimpered slightly as I spoke.

"You know, what? How about you get nothing, since your going to be so rude and ungrateful, plus it will do you some good if you miss one meal." He snapped back as he quickly pulled out of the drive through and back out onto the high way.

I slammed my eyes shut on the way to his house. The last thing I remember was tears begging to fall and a picture of a sandy haired blue eyed boy waiting back home for me.

If only I were there…

An/ how was it?? Btw I own nothing!!!
