Gabi's POV

Happily I opened my locker. Tomorrow was the start of Christmas break! Tomorrow would be the big party at Sharpay's house that everyone was talking about. Everyone was going too!

I was pretty hyped up about it. Especially since I was hoping to overcome the shyness I seemed to drown in everytime I tried to talk to a certain Troy Bolton. Hoping that maybe this time I could actually talk to him, maybe get him to ask me out, or at least fall for me.

Hey, I thought smiling. A girl can dream, right?

Taylor caught up behind me.

"Hey Gabriella, where are you going in such a rush?" she asked, frazzled.

I turned around, ready to be teased.

I sighed. "I'm going home to perfect my outfit for tomorrow. I want to look good!"

Taylor rolled her eyes.

"Yeah…..for a special someone named Troy….."

And so it began. The teasing that Taylor used to torture me with.

But I had to admit, I kind of enjoyed it. Just don't tell anyone. (Shhhh!)

"Ooooo, look who's blushing! I bet Miss Gabriella likes Mr. Troy! Oooooo, now look! She's turning the color of her skirt! Bright red! Is she a tomato? No! Is she an apple? No! She's in love!"

Still blushing the color of a fire truck, I had to crack up.

Taylor had a way with words sometimes, she was an outstanding writer, and she wrote for the school paper.

It was such a shame she had to use her word power for evil, teasing the innocent best friend.

Kelsi came over, sadly hearing the last of the teasing bit.

"What was that all about?"

Then she looked over at me.

"Wow Gabi….and why is your face a tomato?"

Taylor smiled smugly. "I caught her thinking about looking good for Troy Bolton."

"I never said that!"

"Yes, but you implied it."

I rolled my eyes. "Whatever."

Walking out the door, I turned.

"And Taylor?"

"Yes?"

"Just because I liked Troy last year doesn't mean I like him now."

At home, my room was a wreck.

Clothes were thrown everywhere, by me trying to find the perfect outfit to impress Troy with.

And so far, what had I found? Nothing. Well, maybe a cute necklace to catch his eye (do boys like shiny objects?) and a pair of sparkly earrings.

My cell phone rang, and quickly I checked the caller ID.

"Hello?"

"Hey Gabi."

"Hi Kelsi." I mentally let out a sigh of relief that it wasn't Taylor. She's amazing, but a girl can only take so much teasing, even if she does enjoy it.

"So what are you wearing to the party?" she asked a hint of teasing in her voice.

"I haven't decided yet. I'm looking right now but all I found were earrings. How about

you?

"Me? I haven't decided yet. Good luck with you, I have to go."

"Ok. Bye"

We hung up, both looking forward to tomorrow night.

So? I'm so sorry it's short, I wanted to get it up before tomorrow. Reviews? Please? The next chapter is the party through Gabi's eyes.
