Here's chapter 2 and I know you'll love it lol. At the bottom of the page is where I got my idea from so if you want to know just read that lol. I got loads of reviews saying its different from anything, that's what I wanted, I don't think anyone has done this kind of plot before if they have I didn't know.


Chapter 2:- Tomorrow Is Another Day

Troy spent New Year's day just waiting for tomorrow. He couldn't wait but was also worried. Truthfully he was scared, he didn't know where he was going or what he was going to eat, he just knew he had to get away. His whole family where celebrating New Years and their family becoming bigger, while Troy was sitting in his room staring at the clock.

"You know if you watch it, the time will go slower" Sharpay said as she stepped through his window, if she couldn't change his mind maybe she could make him feel better. She walked over to the clock and turned it around so Troy couldn't see it anymore.

"Troy, I know I can't change you're mind but what can I do to make you feel better? I hate seeing you like this" Though he didn't know it, before Zeke moved to town Sharpay thought she loved Troy. He was all she could think about and whenever he was near her she got sweaty palms. When Zeke moved she got the whole package, sweaty palms, butterflies in her stomach and her eyes shined. That was when she knew she didn't love Troy like she thought she did.

Troy looked at her, his normally bright blue eyes now a dull gray, only screaming one thing. Help. She hated him like this, he's not his usual joker self.

"No matter what you try Shar, I'm still going. There is noway I'm getting married at 18. You never know, maybe I'll find the girl I love while I'm out there" He joked, slightly making Sharpay feel better, atleast he was laughing.


Gabriella was in her room, crying. That was all she had done since she had been told. She hadn't eaten and her parents where worried. Gabriella knew that if she was going tomorrow she was going to have to eat a lot today to keep her strength up for the journey.

She made her way downstairs ready for her mom to make a fuss of her. She walked into the kitchen and found a note on the side.

Gone for a New Years meal with the rest of the family. Didn't think you were up for celebrating after the news and the way you took it.

Love mom and dad xxx

Typical, getting left out as usual. She never really felt like she belonged in her family, she felt like she was born into the wrong house. If she had different parents she wouldn't be going through this. They wouldn't make her marry someone she didn't know.

"Maybe it's because their worried I'll a lonely old lady with 27 cats. And that no-one will ever love me ... after all they don't love me, my own family" She said outloud to no-one but herself. Her parents had called Chad and Taylor to come over so Gabriella wasn't alone all day.

"We love you" Taylor said which made Gabriella jump and drop the note. Taylor walked over to her best friend and hugged her, Chad joined in too.

"Don't ever say that no-one will ever love you because we do"

"You guys love me as a friend, my parents probably think no-one will love me love me. Why couldn't I be born into a different family" She had been asking herself the same question ever since she was 14. Every time it was an important year for her it was even more important for her brother. Year 7, new school her brother Year 9, SATs. Year 9, SATs her brother Year 11, GCSEs. Year 11, GCSEs her brother's Graduation. It was just typical of her family to put her brother first.

"Trust me Gabi, you'll find the one who'll love you love you. Hey you might meet him on you're 'journey'" He used air commas because he didn't want to call it anything else. It was a journey just not one of those that people know where you are.

"Just promise me that you'll come back. Promise me that you'll come back if only to see us" Taylor made her promise. Gabriella was only going to get away from the marriage ... and her family. She was never going to leave her best friends forever.

"Don't worry, I'll call you when I can ... I'm not going till tonight anyway" She was going to climb down the tree by her balconly and run. Run as fast as she can as soon as her parents where asleep.


Troy had asked his parents if he could sleep at Zeke's the night, they said yes. This made it easier to run away. Zeke wasn't going to stop him, he knew what it was like to be forced into something you don't want to do. He got forced to move here but he didn't mind after he met Sharpay.

"Troy, don't do a disappearing act. If you don't come back at least call or something, Sharpay will go out her mind if she doesn't know where you are"

"Zeke she's already out of her mind, she has been since she was born" Troy replied, he was making a joke but behind that he was scared. He didn't want Zeke to notice though.

"I will call, I won't just leave you hanging waiting on me. I'm not that cruel" Troy said. It was night and Zeke's parent's had gone to sleep. It was now or never for Troy, he had to go now before something else would pull him back.

"Bye Zeke, tell Shar I'll miss her but I will come back and visit" And he left through the front door. Zeke's house is nowhere near his own so he didn't have to sneak past his house. He started running not knowing where he was going. It wasn't until he reached a park that he stopped. He read a near-by sign

West Side Park

He was on the other side of town, he came from East Side. He made his way to near-by bench, it was sheltered so if it rained he would be fine. He chose this spot to sleep.


Gabriella had successfully got away from her house and had reached the park. Just to check she read the sign

West Side Park

Yup, this was the place to stay, she knew the perfect place. The only sheltered bench ... but someone was sitting there. Instead of going and joining them she found the bench under the tree. She was never the type to just go and ask a stranger for directions or anything, she chose to find her way and get lost in the process.

"This'll do for today" Troy and Gabriella both said at the same time. Tomorrow is another day.


Well there it is, Chapter 2 ... so did you like it? Hope so, this is my fave story idea I've had so I'm really proud of it.

I actually thought of it after a dream I had, I ran away from home and met this boy on the way, we grew closer and closer ... then I woke up (my parents weren't making me get married lol)

REVIEW what you thought, I love getting reviews lol
