"Hey Gabriella, long time no see"

Gabriella couldn't believe this was happening. How did her find her? He was suppose to be within 20 miles from Maria and Gabriella and yet there he was on their doorstep. They didn't even tell him that they were moving to Albuquerque. No time to be a coward Gabriella thought.

"I suggest you leave or else I'll call the police" Gabriella told him as she made an attempt to close the door but failed as he quickly put his foot to stop it.

"Where's Maria?" He asked looking into the house.

"She's not here and I have company. So just leave." Gabriella said with a stern voice as she pushed the door closed with all her might and locked it quickly. She panicked. She knew she had to tell her mother right away that Brian found them. So she took her cell phone from her back pocket and pressed speed dial 2 and walked into the kitchen. The phone rang twice until her mother picked up. Checking to see if anyone could hear her, she then spoke in the phone.

"Hi mom sorry to bother you at work but…" She paused preparing her mother for what was coming.

"But?"

"Mom, Brian found us. He was just at the door couple minutes ago but I don't know if he's still there." Maria didn't respond. "Mom?"

She finally spoke. "Uh ye-yes?" By the tone of her voice Gabriella knew that her mother was still processing the information. She spoke again. "Lock all the doors and windows. If he tries to break in call the police. Okay?" Maria said in a panicky tone.

"Mom, calm down. I have friends over. He would do anything with them around." Gabriella whispered into the phone.

"Oh yeah your right. Well I'll be home in about 2 hours or so. Don't open the door for anybody okay?"

"Okay mom."

"Who is it that you have over?" Asked her mother curiously.

"Urm…" She sighed. "If you just have to know, Troy and some other friends that I met today." She then waited for her mother to squeal or something in the phone but she didn't. She was still probably still shocked from the Brian news. For a 39 year old mother Maria sure acted like a teenager sometimes. Especially when it came to having conversations with her 17 year old daughter.

After they said there goodbyes Gabriella returned back to the living room to find everyone's face in a horrified manner. It was too funny she burst out with laughter. They must of not heard her come in because they all screamed when they first heard her laughing.

"Oh man, you should of seen your faces when I walked in. Is the movie really that scary?" Gabriella asked wiping away tears cause by her hard laughter.

"Hell yeah it is!" Chad exclaimed with a hand on his chest.

She laughed again. "Whatever. Lets just watch the rest of the movie." She said as she sat back down next to Troy.

"Who was at the door?" Troy whispered.

Gabriella's face feel when she remembered who was at the door and tried to make up a lie. "Um, I-it was the, um, next door neighbor. She wanted some sugar." But it was no use. She could tell that Troy knew she was lying. She also knew that he would ask her again when everybody went home and they were alone.

…

After the movie ended they played truth of dare and spin the bottle. Then it was time for them to get home. 10:45 was considered past curfew for Chad's Parents and 11:00 was curfew for Sharpay and Ryan. So everybody decided to leave and they thanked Gabriella for the movie night before they left. So it was just Troy and Gabriella alone. Maria would be home any minute.

"So, who was really at the door?" Troy asked as soon as everybody left.

Gabriella hesitated. Knowing that there was no way to lie to him and get away with it, she had no other choice but to tell him the truth. "um" she sighed. "I-It was a guy mom use to date."

"oh" He could tell by her voice that she didn't want to tell anymore than that so he decided to leave it alone. Although he knew something was wrong, he didn't want to force her to tell him everything.

"Well, I should go now." He said walking towards the door.

"Yeah you should. Want to hang out tomorrow?" She asked following her.

"Sure we can hang out tomorrow. You can have dinner at my place if you want, you can bring you mom too." He said standing outside while Gabriella leaned against the door.

"I would love to join you and your family for dinner."

"Good. Cause you were coming anyways" He smiled.

She smirked. "What if I refused?"

"Oh trust me, you cant refuse me even if you tried."

"Really?" Gabriella asked amused.

"Yes. really." He grinned.

She let out a laugh. "Yeah your probably right. I really cant resist those perfect teeth, and those soft lips, and those crystal blue eyes." With every compliment she gave him, she found herself going into a trance. She couldn't come out of it even if she tired. It was like starring at a room filled of gold. You couldn't look away. He took a step closer to her.

"See. Told you you couldn't resist me." He smiled that winning smile that she'd began to love.

"Yeah I can." Her voice faded as she spoke.

"Really?" He asked. His voice husky and warm against her lips as he leaned in closer. But before he could kiss her a car pulled up in the drive way and they pulled apart quickly. They turned around and watched as Gabriella's mom walked up to them.

"Hello Troy." Maria smiled.

"Hi Ms Montez." He rubbed a hand behind his head.

"It's Maria." She corrected him.

"Hi Maria." He restated.

"Were you just leaving?"

"Uh yeah I was."

"Oh okay well see you around Troy." She said as she walked into the house.

"Bye Gabs." He said a little disappointed that they got interrupted.

"Bye Troy." Gabriella said with the same disappointment.

She watched as he walked away and closed her door when he reached his doorstep. With her back against the door, she smiled at the thought of actually kissing Troy Bolton. Troy Bolton.

"Gabriella?" She jumped out of her thoughts and walked to her mother in the kitchen.

"Yeah mom?"

"Did Brian come back after I called you?"

"No he didn't. How did he find us?"

"I don't know sweetie. But if he causes problems we'll just call the police. He ignored the restraining order. He can go to jail for that."

"Okay. I'm going to bed now." She yawned. "It's really tiring hanging out with Troy's friends."

Maria laughed. "Keep them away from me then."
