It's been so long since I've posted!! I'm sooo sorry! College has kept me busy...but now I'm on break and I'm ready to keep working! As always I don't own the characters and the plot is based heavily on a myriad of Shakespearean plays.
Chapter 3: The Heartache and The Shock
It had been weeks since Ryan had been expelled and as time had moved on things only got worse at East High. On numerous occasions Gabby had opened her locker to find notes written in sparkling pink gel pen ink. Today was no different.
Hello Skank,
Glad to see you are enjoying an education, too bad Ryan is still trying to get in to a school. It seems most schools don't want students who attack other students...which happens to be the only reason why I haven't crushed your pretty little face. Just so you know...I don't care if my brother thinks you're special...someday he'll realize just how worthless you are...I can't wait.
S.
BTW...U should prolly do the world a favor and just cut ur wrists.. XD...bitch
Tears had covered the page before she had even finished reading it.
I am worthless...Sharpay is right...Troy won't even look at me...and Ry hasn't returned any of my calls...or texts...and I know his Ms Evan's is lying when she says he's not home...maybe I should go talk to Taylor...she always knows how to help
****
"Hey Taylor...Um...can we talk?"
"Oh look it's that girl who i always used to hang out with. The one who cheated on her boyfriend and then supported the guy who beat him up. The one who stopped talking to me..yeah I think that's her"
"Taye...please I just don't know.."
"Gabby look I can't talk right now...and we're not the people we used to be"
"But.."
"I have to get to class...and so do you"
Gabby couldn't help but cry as she watched her once best friend walk down the hall and turn out of sight.
Shit! Could my life get any worse?
Without watching where she was going, Gabby bumped into a wall and grabbed the rail as she slid to the ground. A poster came toppling on top of her.
"Something Wicked This Way Comes:
A Harvest Musicale"
That's just great another cursed musical...perfect title too..that's all musicals ever do around here..
Before she could stand up an announcement came over the intercom
"Gabriella Montez, please report to the front office"
***
"Miss Montez, I'm afraid I have some bad news"
"Of course you do..all I ever get is bad news"
'Gabriella...it's your father...he was killed last night...it was in a robbery...he was trying to hide and capture the robbery on video and..um I'm so very sorry"
"Why am I just finding this out! And...where is my Mom! I NEED MY MOM!!"
"Gabriella..please calm down..I'm so sorry..your Mom flew out to California this afternoon to see your grandmother...and you're just finding out about this because the police just identified his body late this morning"
"What do you mean just identified him?" Gabby was sobbing.
"Well..um Gabby they shot him in the face...with a Mac Ten... And he wasn't Wearing any ID and after the shooting...it left his face..."
"OHH GODD!! WHY? WHY DAMNIT WHY!!!! I need to leave...I gotta get home...I...I can't be here right now"
"Gabby...I think you should.."
"No, I need to go"
"Okay..honey I'm really very sorry for your loss"
"Thank You, Ms Smith..I just need to go home right now"
***
Gabby went to her locker and twisted the lock, fighting back tears all the while. As she opened her locker she found a giant pink sign:
"Go Find A Brothel! Skank!"
It was the last straw. Gabby quickly gathered up her stuff and headed for the Gym.
***
Habby frantically the weights out of their shelves and threw them into the bin. she reached for the volleyball net and grabbed it too and began wheeling it out the door and across the hall..right towards the pool. She tried not to cry as she placed the flowered charm from the spring musical on the diving board. Slowly she tied the weights to the net, tears streaming down her face. After tying the nets to her ankle she stood at the edge of the diving board...
If you can hear me..I'm sorry...I really am...Please take care of my Mom...and watch over Ryan...I just can't do this anymore
She threw the weights off the diving board and waited for the pull to grab her...It wasn't log before she flew off the board..hitting her head, before plunging into the water. She looked up at the sky from under the water...and then close her eyes as the water rushed into her lungs. Darkness.
