Chapter Three: First Day Back

A few days passed and winter break was over with. So, I woke up it was Monday morning at 5:30a.m. I didn't want to get up, now I'm so used to sleeping in, it's hard for me to wake up this early. I got up, strectched and gathered my clothes and went to the bathroom to take a nice warm shower, that would usually wake me up. Twenty minutes later I was out of the shower and dressed. I was wearing a black strapless shirt, under that I had a white shirt under that. Over those shirts I was wearing a nice button, peach long sleeve shirt, I had it unbuttoned, so it wasn't too hot. I was wearing dark blue jeans and with that I had some black heels on. My hair was just straight and I let it loose(outfit in profile). After I was dressed I grabbed my packback and headed downstairs and went to the kitchen. Max just came down shortly after I did, my dad was still sleeping and so was my mom. We ate some cereal before we left to school. It took at least 20 minutes to get to East High, our house isn't that far from school. Once we arrived and got out the car we went our seperate ways. Max went to the field to meet up with his jock friends. I went inside to my locker and as I was headed to my locker I seen Troy by his locker talking with his friends. There was Troy leaning against his locker, Sky McDonald(Miley Cyrus), she was the youngest of the group, she always wore these bright, colorful, girly clothes and her hair was light brown. Her eyes were hazel, and she was always perky and friendly except she never talked to anyone, acutally none of them spoke to anyone, but each other. Edward Cullen(Robert Pattinson), he was the oldest, he was 18. He wore dark clothes and always looked well, I'm not sure he had lots of mood swings though. He had brown hair, it was kinda in a spikey style, his eyes were golden brown. He was actually very good looking, but not as hot as Troy of course. Isabella Swan(Kristen Stewart), likes to be called Bella. She wore dark clothes as well, she didn't really dress like a girl girl like Sky, she actually was quite different from the other girls in the group. Her hair was dark brown, her eyes were brown. She seemed nice, but not talkative, she was 17. Sharpay Evans, now she was totally different from both of the other girls. She was definitly a trend setter, she wore all these expensive up to date clothes. Her hair was always done, she was blonde, her eyes were brown. She was busy and so fake. Every guy in school wants her, but the only guy she gots her eyes on is my husband, Troy. She always flirted with him and has always been nice to him. She was 17 as well. Then finally there was Jeffery Tanner(Mitchel Musso). He had dark brown hair, with brown eyes. He wore almost every kinda of clothing except girl's of course. He was annoying, he talked way to much like Sky and told some stupid jokes, he thought people thought they were funny. He was 15 same age as Sky and me. I finally arrived at my locker and opened it, then put my bag away with my jacket. I grabbed my math book, pen, and notebook, I had math for first period. I was taking an advanced class because I loved math and was very smart when it came to math, I had straight A's every year since 7th grade. I know you're probably thinking what a nerd, right? Well, oh well, I love it and I don't care what anyone thinks. Oh, here comes my best friend Rory(Selena Gomez)! She has been my best friend since 4th grade! She's same age as me, she has black hair and brown eyes. She wears crazy colorful clothes, she just adds her touch to all her outfits. That's what I like about her she doesn't care how she looks or what anyone thinks of her just like me. Some people even say we look like sister's, but I guess we kinda do.

"Heya chica!", Rory hugged me.

"Hey Ro.", I smiled. "What's up?", I asked.

"Not much. How about you?", she smiled.

"Same.", I replied.

"Really? How's Troy?", she asked, curious.

"Okay.", I answered.

"That's good. So where is he?", she fluffed her curly hair as she asked.

"Um, hanging out with his friends.", I looked down the hall where Troy and his friends were standing.

"Wow I'm surprized you two aren't together.", she said. See Troy and I haven't been apart for more than 2 minutes since we got married. Except when it was night time or when he went to where ever he goes every week. He still never told me where he goes.

"Yeah, yeah. Let's get to class.", I giggled and we headed to our math class just 1 minute before the bell rang.

It was lunch time, I just arrived in the lunch room and got a tray and got my food. I had an red apple, a chicken salad, and a Pepsi soda. I headed to my usual table where all my friends were at. I smiled at them as I arrived at the table and sat next to Jack Miles(Nick Jonas), he was my cousin, he was only 15 as well. Most of the people I hung out with were. He had black curly hair, brown eyes, and was a bit shy. The people I sat with had different personalities. Some were loud and annoying, shy and keep to them selves, and people who were happy to be who they were, like Rory. Their names were Taylor Mckessie, Jack Miles, Ryan Miller(Cody linely), Rory, and Cali Sanders(Taylor Swift). Taylor was 15, Jack was 15, Ryan was 16, and Cali was 17.

"You should eat more Gabs, you're already thin.", Taylor said to me nicely, not rudely like some people would.

"I eat a lot. At least I'm not like Cali who never eats lunch.", I smiled at Cali.

"Shut up, I eat lunch...", she paused. "sometimes.", she giggled.

"Yeah right.", Taylor rolled her eyes and we all laughed except for the boys.

"What's so funny about not eating?", Jack asked.

"Nothing.", I rolled my eyes.

"You guys are weird.", Jack told us.

"Excuse me? We are not guys, we are woman.", Rory grinned. Then we all started laughing.

"Okay. Come on Ryan let's go to another table.", Jack said, then him and Ryan left to find another table to sit at for the rest of the lunch period.

"So, Gabby.", Cali smiled at me. So my other two friends... not a good sign.

"What?", I asked nervously.

"How's married life?", Cali asked before she took a sip of her milk.

"It's great.", I smiled.

"Why aren't you two sitting together?", Taylor asked.

"Did you guys have a fight?!", Rory asked.

"No, no fights or anything like that. We just wanted to hang with our friends.", I told them, truthfully.

"Un huh.", Rory rolled her eyes as she took a bite of her sandwhich.

"You spend everyday with us.", Cali said.

"Not since I met Troy. We've been hanging out constantly and when we're not together we're talking on the phone.", I confessed.

"That's what you're suppose to do.", Taylor giggled.

"What, ignore my friends?", I asked.

"No, obssess over the guy you're in love with.", Taylor told me.

"I'm not obssessed with him.", I cried.

"Yeah right.", Rory giggled.

"Hey look he's looking at you Gabs.", Cali pointed to Troy's direction. He was sitting with his friends at a table behind us.

"Really?!", I got excited. So I looked behind me to see yep Troy Bolton staring at me. I waved to him, he smiled at me.

"Aww how cute.", Rory smiled.

"You should go over there.", Cali said.

"No, I don't think so.", I said looking back at my friends.

"Why not?", Taylor asked.

"I-", the bell cut me off, lunch was over. "Gotta go, call ya later!", I waved then was on my way.

I was in my last period, it was 2:50p.m. I was in my science class, I was in the science club if I forgot to mention that. I loved science too. It was now just 5 minutes left of class, after this I'm gonna meet up with Max at his locker so he could drive me home. Then after he dropped me off he was going to go to football practice, oh yeah, there's gonna be a football game this Friday. I think I might go if my friends are, then I will. The teacher '' was his name, passed out our homework, then the bell rang and I was now headed to my brother's locker. I got to his locker and he was talking to Alicia, so I just leaned my back against the lockers and waited for them to get done with their conversation. While I was waiting I felt a tap on my shoulder, I jumped because I got frightened and I looked to see Troy. He had a huge grin on his gorgeous face.

"You scared me half to death.", I said, my heart was pounding still.

"Sorry, but that was funny.", he chuckled.

"No it wasn't.", I giggled. I have to admit it was kinda, only kinda.

"Whatever, so need a ride home?", he asked.

"No, Max is gonna drive me.", I smiled.

"Oh, well, I can if you want.", he said hopeful.

"Okay, I'll just tell Max.", I turned to Max and tapped his shoulder.

"What?", Max turned to me.

"Troy's gonna drive me home.", I told him. "Hi Alicia.", I smiled at her.

"Hi Gabby.", she smiled back at me.

"Okay, buckle up.", Max said.

"Okay dad.", I giggled.

"Bye guys.", Alicia waved.

"Bye.", Troy waved back. Then we were on our way out to his truck.

A few minutes later in Troy's old beat up truck, we were half way to my house. There was actually silence between us for the first time, so it was kinda awkward. I decided to break the silence.

"How was your day at school?", I asked.

"Um, it was good. Yours?", he glanced at me then looked back at the road.

"Same.", I smiled.

"Good... we're here.", he said as he stopped in front of my house.

"Oh, cool.", I unbuckled myself, grabbed my bag, and was about to get out, but Troy pulled my arm gently, of course.

"What?", I looked at him.

"I'm gonna be going out of town with my friends.", he told me.

"Really? Why?", I asked, curious to know.

"Just to you know hang. We usually take trips monthly.", he said.

"Okay, are you guys going?", I asked.

"To Vermont.", he smiled.

"How long will you be gone?", I held his hand.

"Only three days, five at most.", he said.

"I'll miss you.", I admitted.

"I'll miss you too, Ella.", he caressed my cheek.

"Just don't find any other girls out there, kay?", I joked.

"Of cousre. The only girl for me is you, my wife.", he smiled and kissed my cheek.

"That's good to hear.", I smiled then kissed his lips.

"I'll call you when I arrive.", he said.

"Okay, bye.", I got out the truck, then watched him drive away.
