Chapter 3 – A not so happy ending

-Troy's POV-

I finally figured out what Chad meant when he said "hope you like drama." Mrs. Darbus loves to talk about drama. I think she's talking about the musical or something, but I'm paying attention. I can't keep my eyes off the pretty brunet; I just want to talk to her. The bell rang and I saw the girl run out. I ran after her ignoring Chad. When I got in the hallway, it was full and no sign of the girl. I sighed and headed off to my next class. I was almost there when someone ran into me. She fell and I looked down to see that girl.

"Owww…I am so sorry," She apologized and I helped her get up.

"Its fine, are you okay?" I asked very concerned because her elbow is turning purple.

"Yea, I think I will be," she said with a cute little smile, "are you new?"

"Yea, I just moved here today, I'm Troy."

"Somehow I thought you would say that's your name," She laughed while I stood there confused.

"What do you mean?"

"People talk about you."

"I see…so do you have a name?" I laughed.

"Oh right, I'm Gab-"

"Gabs come on all ready. Jeff is waiting for you!" Some blond headed girl yelled.

"Coming," She yelled at the girl then turned back to me, "Sorry, got to go." And she ran off. I guess I don't know her full name, unless it's Gabs, but I know something to call her other then "That girl."

-Gabriella's POV-

I ran off with Shar and couldn't help but think of Troy. So the rummers everyone said were true, he is cute, no, he's hot!!

"I can't believe that you were talking to Troy Bolton!" Sharpay yelled all excited.

"Yea, I ran in to him," I said rubbing my elbow, "Jeff!!" I ran to my boyfriend and gave him a hudge hug.

"Hey baby," He said way to cutely, "ready to go to lunch?"

"Of course," I grabbed his hand and we ran off to lunch.

"So does Troy do basket ball?" I asked really curious.

"Yea, he came down during free period while we were having an extra practice, so we told him to play, and he rocks. We made him captain." He explained, and sounded sad when he said he was captain.

"I'm so sorry you're not captain, I know how much you wanted to be."

"Yea, I was so sure I'd make it, but then stupid Troy came and took it away from me!" He said really angry that it scared me half to death.

"Jeff, calm down. I know that you wanted to be captain, but maybe next year." I said calmly trying to get him to calm down. He was really starting to scare me.

"Don't tell me to calm down!!" He yelled at me and let go of his hand at backed away from him in fear.

"Jeff, stop yelling at me and please calm down." I said as calmly as I could with tears in my eyes.

"I can yell at you if I want to!! You worthless little tramp!!" Those last words hurt. I know he's just mad, but that does not give him the right to yell at me and call me that.

"If you're going to treat me this way, it's over!!" I yelled back.

"WHAT?!?! I own you; you can't break up with me!!"

"What? I'm not property, and if I ever knew you were such a jerk I never would have gone out with you in the first place." I screamed back, about ready to slap him.

"You no good little bitch!!" And with that last word being said I slapped him. He put his hand to his cheek, and I soon regretted it. He lifted his hand up and punched me, right on the eye. I fell to the floor in pain, and held but my hand over where he hit me. Tears where falling from my face and I got up looked him in the eye, and gave him a look of hurt.

"Oh my God! Gabby I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to do that!" He said, thinking for some reason I would forgive him.

"Save it!!" I ran off crying. I ended up in the auditorium, I sat down and started to cry my eyes out.
