As she pulled her suitcase off the bus, the sun was shining brightly and Gabriella had to squint her eyes in order to see where she was going.
"Wow, its never been this bright before…" Taylor said from beside her. "This summer may be better than last year."
Gabriella smiled at her new found friend. On the bus ride here Taylor and herself had gotten to know each other pretty well.
Taylor was at the camp for the math. Just so happens a lot happened here. Their was dozens of clubs and it sounded way better than the last camp Gabriella went to. She was 7 and it was the worst summer of her life.
"Okay can we gather round here please! People!! Please!!" Came a voice from further ahead.
"Lets go, we don't went to get Briana mad." Taylor said and walked off ahead.
Gabriella trailed behind her, looking around and taking in the quiet atmosphere. Well what looked like a quiet atmosphere.
Kids were running in different directions, some were complaining because they couldn't find their bags while others were saying bye to parents who had brought them here.
Gabriella watched as some of them threw their arms round each other and saying how much they missed each other. She had never had a friend that missed her before. Coming to a stop next to Taylor, she looked at the small woman who was standing on a big rock.
She had wild ginger curly hair, and green eyes. She wore black framed glasses and had pale skin.
"That's Briana." Came Taylor's voice. "She organizes everything here. Things to do, clubs, rooms, all that stuff you know…"
Gabriella nodded and noticed Troy standing opposite her. She caught his eye but then quickly looked away. From the corner of her eye she swore she saw him smirk.
"Okay, as always if you were here last year you will probably get the same room! Some of you I have moved because of last year…" Briana said her gaze landing on a chocolate skin coloured boy with a brown Afro.
The brown haired boy gasped. "I didn't do anything!!!" He complained. "I don't want to move…"
"Its too late now Danforth, what's done is done. " Briana smiled. "You should all go to reception for your keys and information. I'll see you all at dinner tonight. Have a great summer and come to me if you need to talk!" Briana was shouting over the crowd as they started to move in different directions.
"Well, receptions this way…" Taylor sighed walking to the right.
Gabriella awkwardly followed after her, suddenly feeling like the kid nobody wanted to be paired with.
"You know, you don't have to show me around….if you don't want too…" Gabriella said shyly.
Taylor looked at her and smiled. "No, its fine. I hate my roommates anyways. The longer I can stay away from them the better."
"You hate them?" Gabriella asked.
Taylor nodded. "Samantha Sparks. Is evil. She criticizes everything you do and always finds a way to insult you. Her best friend, Sharpay Evans. Well, I don't know where to begin."
"Sharpay? Like the dog?" Gabriella asked confused.
Taylor laughed. "Trust me, I'd prefer if she was a dog."
Gabriella smiled. "She can't be that bad, can she?"
"You'll see."
The two walked into the block like building. Their was a huge line of people waiting at the desk.
"I have to stand in this?" Gabriella complained.
"We all have to stand in this." Taylor said.
"WHAT!!" Came a screech from the front of the line.
"Miss Evans, if you'd please calm down." The receptionist said.
"I WILL NOT CALM DOWN JUDY!!" She screamed.
"My names, Jenny."
"I DON'T CARE!!"
"And that's Sharpay…" Taylor said.
"She's clearly making a scene.." Gabriella said.
"Its Sharpay. Its what she does best."
Sharpay screamed from the front of the line and stomped away. She came to a halt in front of Taylor.
"Well, Samantha has been kicked out of camp." Sharpay said.
Gabriella saw Taylor's eyes light up.
"Really!? Oh no, I'm heartbroken!" Taylor replied.
"We're sharing a room with some Montez girl! I am NOT happy." Sharpay screeched and stomped off.
"Well, I hope this Montez girl is better than Samantha."
"Taylor…" Gabriella said.
"Yeah?"
"I'm the Montez girl….My last names Montez."
Taylor beamed. "Your kidding?" Gabriella shook her head and Taylor threw her arms around her. "I can't believe it! This is awesome!!"
As Taylor was jumping up and down with excitement she bumped up into the brown haired afro kid from before.
"Watch it!" Taylor said spinning around then freezing. "Oh, Chad…I'm sorry."
Chad smiled. "No big deal. Its fine."
"Are you sure?"
Chad nodded. "Yeah its fine."
"Can we stand here!?" Said the guy behind Chad.
"Jason!" Chad said turning round.
"What you said we should cut in line, and your taking ages to ask.""You are unbelievable!"
"You can both stand here!" Taylor smiled. "We don't mind, do we Ella?"
Gabriella looked at her. Ella? Nobody has ever called her that. "Um, sure."
Taylor smiled again. "Great."
Jason and Chad stood in front of them, and when she was sure they weren't listening Taylor turned to Gabriella.
"Their Troy's friends." She whispered. "You said you didn't want Troy to know your name. Ella could be short for anything."
Gabriella smiled in thanks. "You're a fast thinker."
"I know, I'm just amazing!" Taylor smirked.
Half an Hour later Taylor and Gabriella were heading over to their cabin.
"Its getting pretty cold." Taylor groaned. "The thing I hate about this camp. Its always cold."
The two walked into the cabin to see Sharpay standing in the middle of the room, tapping her foot.
"Oh, so your Montez." She said.
"Actually my name is Gab-""I don't care!" Sharpay shouted and stomped out the cabin.
"Well, that was strange…"
Taylor smiled. "It will get stranger."
After unpacking her stuff, Gabriella decided to explore the camp.
She was barley out the door when Troy came running up to her. Gabriella rolled her eyes.
"Are you stalking me?" She asked, walking away. Troy smiled following her.
"Nah, you don't seem that interesting."
"Gee, thanks…"
"So, why are you here?" Troy asked.
"My Mom and her Boyfriend are always horny…." Gabriella sighed.
"Okay…" Troy laughed.
Gabriella rolled her eyes again. "What about you?"
"Im a basketball player. A really good one actually." He puffed out his chest.
"Wow, your parents must be so proud. You play basketball and have an ego. The perfect child."
"Im awesome!"
"I bet you are. Look, shouldn't you be off looking at yourself in the mirror, or doing whatever it is ego people like you do."
Troy laughed. "Your funny."
"Im hilarious." Gabriella smirked.
"I bet you are."
"Look, what do you want?" Gabriella asked.
"Your name." Troy said.
"Guess.."
"What?""Guess." Gabriella smiled. "Are you deaf?"
"Why should I guess?"
Gabriella shrugged. "I like guessing games."
"Really?"
"No, but right now its amusing."
Troy smiled. "I'll remember that."
"Great. The basketball player has a brain too."
"A pretty good one actually."
"Look, I'm not like the others."
Troy raised an eyebrow. "Others.."
"I've heard things about you Troy."
"Good things…"
Gabriella laughed. "You wish." She climbed the stairs to her cabin.
"At least tell me your name."
"Goodnight Troy." Gabriella smirked.
Troy looked at her and for the first time in his life, he was curious. About a girl.
