Double Play
Disclaimer: I do not own High School Musical. (I forgot to add that in Chapter 1)
A/N: Thank you for all the reviews, they are so motivating. Enjoy.
A/N: To clear it up this is all in Troy's point of view unless I say so.
Before we do that I want to ask you a question," she said. From there I could tell it might go down hill.
"Troy, first what do you see in me?" she murmured.
At first, I stuttered, but then I got my voice. "What do I see in you? Well I see a pretty, genuine, nice girl who gives her all, and loves. Why though is what I want to know? Are you doubting us?" I asked.
"Well not really it's just I feel like sometimes maybe you're losing interest in me," she muttered.
"Of course I'm not Sharpay. I mean there are lots of girls I just haven't found someone who tops you," I said with a smile and she breathed a sigh of relief.
"Now on with my present and like I said it's kind of a coincidence. I got you a book called Poetry and Love and what's neat about it is it has a little place like a journal to keep your thoughts. Now I know that is kind of girly, but do it for or about me," she exclaimed with her eyes lighting up.
"Thank you so much! Now enough talk, and let's get into desert," I said chuckling. The night was fun, but I kept playing back Sharpay's question in my mind. Like a gentleman, I opened her door for her and we drove off. On her porch, I gave her a good night kiss and went home.
The next day I got off the bus and started talking to Chad about an upcoming NBA game with the Bulls vs. Heat. We slowly walked into Mrs. Darbus's class and sat down. I sat and for once listened to her class, occasionally staring at Gabby or at Sharpay.
I went to all my classes and nothing interesting happened except for I got detention in English for passing notes. (I would have to miss practice and my dad was going to kill me.) At lunch Chad, Jason, Zeke, and I were sitting together.
"So how was your date with Ms. Ice Queen last night," inquired Chad.
"Just fine thank you and how many times have I told you Sharpay is not an Ice Queen? Maybe around you guys she is, but she is nice around me," I answered.
"You're right about it just being around you. I saw her talking to Gabriella at free period yesterday. Let's just say it was not pretty. She was so rude and if Gabriella was onto you I doubt she is now," stated Jason.
Zeke started passing around some of his cookies and said, "Troy is a fire and fire melts ice."
"That is an interesting theory Zeke. All I'm telling you Troy, is that you better watch out for her," remarked Chad. The rest of lunch was spent talking about sports and not girls.
I walked off to biology class where I had Mr. Spaletto.
"Ok, so I decided that to make this Friday even better than it is, I'm going to assign a big project, and you get partners," Mr. Spaletto said bright fully. The whole class gave him groans in return. "I'm assigning your partners and they are Troy & Gabriella, Sharpay & Chad, Ryan & Kelsi, and Jason & Zeke.
"I think this will be fun," I stated smiling at Gabriella. She simply smiled back.
After school Gabriella and I decided to walk home from school together to her house for our project.
We settled in and went to her room to work. "Troy, are you any good at biology?" questioned Gabriella.
"Well Gabriella…" I started
"Call me Gabby," she quickly told me.
"Well Gabby truthfully I suck at biology, but I know you're a brain at it so we'll survive," I laughed.
We buckled down and started studying and taking notes until I started to tell Gabby a corny science joke and she looked up to me and we were inches apart. I started leaning toward her. "Troy you really shouldn't, you have a girlfriend," Gabby stuttered.
"I know I'm sorry it's just I wasn't thinking for a second," he whispered back. It was a little icy afterward, but they continued their work.
At about 4:30 Troy decided to head for home "Gabby I was wondering if maybe tomorrow we could go out to dinner. I mean as friends," I suggested.
"I guess that would be all right I don't have any plans tomorrow," Gabby said thoughtfully.
"Great I'll pick you up tomorrow at 7:00. With that I left her house with a goodbye.
"Hi Troy, where have you been?" asked his mother.
"Oh, well I've been studying with Gabriella Montez for a biology report," replied Troy simply.
"Ok, dinner is at 6:00 tonight and we're going to Chile's," my mom told me.
I went up to my room to start doing my homework, but I was thinking about my date with Gabby tomorrow.

A/n: There is a semi-cliffy. So what should happen on Gabby and Troy's date as buddies. Will Sharpay find them or will she find them doing something later. I got some ideas, but feel free to contribute. Hope you liked it!
