-Chapter 2: Jingle Bells-
(December 2, 2008- 6AM)
"Morning mija," Inez greeted her daughter as she sat down at the dinning room table in her white and red snowflake pajamas.
"Morning mommy," Gabriella mumbled followed by a yawn.
"Morning baby girl," Greg said as he walked through the swinging door connecting the kitchen and dining room carrying a plate of his famous breakfast burritos.
"YOUR BREAKFAST BURRITOS!" Gabriella squealed as she got a whiff of the burritos, now wide awake and waiting for some burritos.
"Here you go baby girl, your favorite kind," Greg told his daughter with a smile and then handed her a cup of hot chocolate with extra marshmallows .
"Thanks daddy. I love you." Gabriella said as she stood up an placed a kiss on her dad's cheek before she sat down and began to eat.
"So you ready for your first day back at East from Thanksgiving break?" Inez asked her daughter as they all ate while listening to Christmas music on the Kaleidescape System.
"I guess." Gabriella said with a smile before she walked into the kitchen and clean off her plate and then put that and her cup in the stainless steal dishwasher, before shutting it and going back out to the dinning room telling her parents she was going to take a shower.
Thirty minutes later, Gabriella got out of her shower, wrapped a towel around her body and around her hair before she washed her face with the ProActiv system.
After washing her face, she put cream all over her body and put her deodorant on, before she slipped on a pair of white lace thongs and a matching bra from Victoria's Secret (VS), before she slipped on her light wash Cali Flare size 0 Hollister Co. (HCO) jeans, a light green trestles beach HCO tank top with lace straps and lining, and over her tank top she put on a dark red el morro sweater from HCO that had a deep v-cut that showed the lace outlining at the top of her cami.
After putting on her cloths, she took her hair out of the now wet towel and ran a brush through it before she took her straightener and straightened her hair. After straightening her hair, she put a white leather headband in her hair.
After doing her hair, she went on to lightly applying her make up, after her make up, Gabriella moved onto her jewelry. Gabriella decided on a snowflake charm with diamonds on a platinum on a chain from Tiffany & Co. (T&C), a pair of matching snowflake earrings from T&C, and a snowflake charm with diamonds on a 18k white gold link bracelet from T&C.
"Baby Girl?" Gabriella heard her dad say.
Gabriella smiled and opened her bathroom door and popped her head out and said, "Yeah daddy?"
"Is Troy taking you to school today?"
"No, I'm going to drive myself today. I was wondering if you would please warm it up for me?"
"Sure, thing. The one you drive for winter right?"
"Yep. The keys are on the hook in the garage in the key lock box. Thanks daddy."
"No problem baby girl."
After her dad left, Gabriella looked herself over in the mirror before she picked up her bathroom and shut off the lights, made her bed, put her things in her Louis Vuitton backpack, before walking into her closet to find a pair of boots or shoes to wear today.
"God! What pair?!" Gabriella exclaimed as she tried to chose between to pairs of boots. Smiling she got an idea, she walked out of her closet, over to her HCO tote and grabbed her red iPhone from it and hit speed dial three.
"Hello?" Came the voice of Sharpay through the other end.
"Hey Shar-Bear? Do you have a quick minutes to come over here?"
"Yeah, what do you need, Brie-Ella?"
"I don't know what pair of shoes to wear!" Gabriella exclaimed causing Sharpay to giggle.
"Tell me what your wearing and send a pick of boots your having a hard time choosing from." Sharpay told her with a smile Gabriella couldn't see.
"Thanks girl! You're the best! I love you!" Gabriella replied with a squeal.
"No problem! Anything for my bestie! I love you too!" Sharpay said before they hung up so Gabriella could send the pictures to her.
Five minutes later, Gabriella got a text back and a picture back from Sharpay telling her these were the pair of boots she should wear. Smiling Gabriella texted, Sharpay back before she put on the boots. The boots that Sharpay chose for Gabriella were a pair of women's black Raya UGG Australia high fashion heeled boots. She pulled her pant legs over her boots so only the bottom portion of the boots shoed before she grabbed her backpack, called the dogs out of her room, turned off her lights and walked downstairs. Getting downstairs, she put on her gloves, scarf and hat before she put on her…well, Troy's letterman jacket before she said goodbye to her parents.
Gabriella walked out to the two story garage and staying on the first story, she walked to the car of hers that she used during the winter, her silver Volvo C30, the same car that Edward Cullen drives in the movie Twilight.
Smiling she, got in the drivers side, threw her book bag and tote in the passenger seat, put the Twilight Motion Picture Soundtrack in the CD Player, put on her seat belt, before she pushed the button on her key chain to open up the garage doors so she could pull out of the garage.
After pulling out of the garage, Gabriella started to drive the twenty five minute drive to East High School.
Finally, Gabriella carefully pulled into East High School Student Parking parking lot, and parked her car between Troy's (new) navy blue 2009 Super Duty 450 Ford Truck by Ford Motor Company (Ford), that was by Jason's silver Ford truck that was parked by Ryan's black Ford Truck; and between Zeke's green F-350 Super Duty Ford Truck, that was parked next to Chad's red F-350 Ford Truck.
"Hey Gabriella!" Gabriella heard people, she didn't know, say as she got out of her car, backpack and tote over her shoulder.
"Hey!" Gabriella replied back with a wave as she walked to the now iced fountain at the front of the school to meet her friends.
"Hey Gabriella!" The girls greeted Gabriella.
"Hey! Where are the boys?" Gabriella asked them as she hugged each of them, and looped arms with Sharpay.
"There talking with Coach Bolton about basketball practice tomorrow morning. They don't want to get up at five-fifteen in the morning and run in this weather." Taylor replied.
"That's crazy. I would run in this weather," Gabriella and Sharpay told them.
"We know you two would because you guys are work out maniacs." Martha told them as they all looped arms with Gabriella and Sharpay and walked into East High with people parting like the Red Sea to let them pass.
-----
The girls were all sitting in the back, by Gabriella's signed seat, in homeroom, talking when the boys all walked in, their normal flock of girls following them and flirting with them. They smiled as the boys just ignored them as they walked up to them and gave them kisses.
"Hey Brie," Troy said as he kissed Gabriella on the lips passionately.
"Hey Wildcat. How are you this cold morning?" Gabriella said as she cuddled into his tight embrace with a yawn.
Troy smiled and rubbed her back before nuzzlyling his nose in her vanilla scented hair and whispering, "Okay. Are you okay?"
"Yeah, just tired. Don't worry about me." She told him, followed by another yawn.
"I have to, you're my girlfriend and I love you so much." He told her seriously while he locked their eyes, electric blue meeting chocolate brown.
"I love you too. So much." Gabriella said as they kissed again before Sharpay coughed telling them to stop because Ms. Darbus was walking in.
"I'll talk to you later. I love you." Troy said as he pecked on the forehead before he went to take his seat at the front of the class, but not before winking at Gabriella.
As the bell rang, Ms. Darbus yelled, "QUIET DOWN! BREAK IS OVER PEOPLE! WAY OVER!"
Everyone quieted down and some snuck down in their chairs, scared of Ms. Darbus or being good students, and even remembering to turn off their cell phones.
"Thank you. Now before the morning announcements, please stand for the Pledge of Allegiance."
The students all stood up and put their hands over their hearts as they looked at the flag while they said the Pledge of Allegiance.
I pledge of allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands: on Nation under God, indivisible, With Liberty and Justice for all.
"Thank you students. Now for your morning announcements. First off, us teachers have come up with a way for you all to earn extra points in the class you need it in or want it in. How you do so is you solve the Christmas riddle of the day by writing YOUR answer on a slip of paper with your name and the class you want it in and put it in the box that will be located in your homeroom class, this classroom. The box is right there and it clearly says riddle answers go in here." Ms. Darbus said as she pointed to the box on her desk before continuing, "Alright. We have an announcement from Gabriella Montez and Sharpay Evans, the ladies that are in charge of the Snow Ball, the winter formal, this year. Ms. Montez, Ms. Evans, the stage is all yours and I want all your eyes on them and mouths close, if not then you'll spend CHRISTMAS BREAK EVERYDAY WITH ME."
"Thank you Ms. Darbus. As you all know, Gabriella and me are in charge of the winter formal, the Snow Ball, as we have named it. We have papers telling you when, where, and what for," Sharpay said as she and Gabriella each passed out flyers to each individual person.
"Yes Chad?" Gabriella asked Chad seeing his hand raised.
"What do you mean, what for?"
"Excellent question. What we mean what for, well, we mean is that half of our profits are going to go the Marine Toys for Tots Foundation." Gabriella said with a smile.
"What a brilliant plan you girls!" Ms. Darbus told them with a smile.
"Well, thank you Ms. Darbus." Gabriella and Sharpay replied to the teacher with a smile.
"Anyway, this flyer has everything you need. Besides where you buy the tickets, you either buy them from Gabriella or myself." Sharpay said with a smile.
"Thank you and have a great day," Gabriella said with a smile as people clapped as they both sat down again.
"Well, thank you for that wonderful announcement. Well, that is all of them today, besides the announcement for the assembly in the auditorium today at 2 to the rest of the school day. Have a good day students." Ms. Darbus finished saying as the bell rang signaling the end of homeroom.
---
The rest of the day went in a blur for the students of East High, until 2 o'clock when they all had to report to the auditorium.
"Where's Brie and Sharpay?" Troy asked the others as they sat down in the front row seats of the auditorium, noticing that his girlfriend and Sharpay were missing.
"I have no clue," They all replied and then quieted down as Principal Matsui walked up on stage with a microphone and started talking.
"Thank you. Now, today's assembly is about the Snow Ball. As you all probably know, I am honored to have these beautiful and intelligent girls are so brilliant to come up with the idea of donating half of the profits to Marie Toys for Tots Foundation.
Yesterday, I got a phone call from the person who is in head of the Toys for Tots Foundation and he was very, very surprised that there are teens like these girls. He was so surprised he has rewarded them with a trip to Rome Italy, this summer before they head off to college and he has invited them to the annual thank you ball in Los Angeles, California to represent East High School and to honor your Senior Class on the sixteenth-twentieth of this month.
So to give these girls their rewards and the thank you from children and Marines every where, Sgt. Stanly Jefferson."
A man wearing a Marine outfit walked out and shook Mr. Matsui's hand before Mr. Matsui said, "Now the two girls. Ms. Sharpay Ann Evans and Ms. Gabriella Marie Montez."
Everyone stood up and cheered as Gabriella and Sharpay both walked out blushing with their arms looped.
After the assembly, East High was done with their school day, the Wildcats all smiled at each other and congratulated Sharpay and Gabriella before they all headed in the direction of their seats, not being able to wait to go home and go Christmas tree hunting with everyone and their families in a one horse open sleight for each family.
They all rode one horse open sleighs to look for Christmas trees in the forest, finally after three hours of searching they all found a Christmas tree, beautiful Norway Spruces. The men and teen (boys) all cut them down and put one on each of the five family sleighs before they all rode back to the ranch located on the Montez land and put the horses away after dropping the trees off at each family house.
Dashing through the snow
In a one-horse open sleigh
Through the fields we go
Laughing all the way.
Bells on bob-tail ring
Making spirits bright
What fun it is to ride and sing
A sleighing song tonight.
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way,Oh what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh, O
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way,
Oh what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh.
A day or two ago I thought I'd take a ride
And soon Miss Fanny Bright
Was seated by my side;
The horse was lean and lank
Misfortune seemed his lot,
We ran into a drifted bank
And there we got upsot.
A day or two ago
The story I must tell I went out on the snow
And on my back I fell;
A gent was riding by
In a one-horse open sleigh
He laughed at me as
I there sprawling laid
But quickly drove away.
Now the ground is white,
Go it while you're young,
Take the girls along
And sing this sleighing song.
Just bet a bob-tailed bay,
Two-forty as his speed,
Hitch him to an open sleigh and crack!
You'll take the lead.
