Hey guys, I'm back! Thanks for everyones reviews, and now i know the principals name!! Mr. Matsui! Thanks everyone for reminding me of that!

Gabriella's POV

I felt my mouth drop open in shock. What had he just said? Troy's in the what? This must be a mistake! It's my last day here, and nothing was supposed to ruin this perfect day! how did this happen?

"I'm afraid he was hit by a car while walking to school this morning" Mr. Matsui said, as i felt tears come to my eyes.

"I-is he alright?" i asked quietly.

"Well, the doctors say that the damage shouldn't be too bad, but he has been out cold for about an hour, and he has some broken ribs." The principal explained. I buried my face in my hands. This is absolutly horrible! Poor Troy! If only i could stay to look after him, to make sure that he'll be alright...

"Gabriella?" The principal said, i could feel him rest a hand on my shoulder. i slowly brought my head up to look at him, fear in my eyes.

"everything's going to be okay" he said, giving me the fakest smile i have ever seen. It's pretty obvious that even he doesn't know if the damage is worst than we thought. "Listen," he said, squatting down so that he was eye level with me. "Troy has been mumbling words, and the only thing they can make out is him saying that he needs to see you."

I felt my heart jump into my throat. I felt so touched. Troy was calling for me, even when he's not awake. i decided at that moment that i'd spend the rest of my time in this unforgettable town, right next to Troy. It was the least i could do after all the pain he's going through.

"So, um. Are we going to go?" i asked. i wasnted to see troy so bad. All i wanted to do at this very moment is hug him, feel his strong arms around me once more, and feel safe.

"Yes. Follow me" Mr. Matsui said, rising, and heading out of the office. As i followed him out the door, a loud booming voice called out after us.

I turned around to see coach Bolton racing towards us, with his jacket in hand.

"I just heard what happened" he said, out of breath.

"You can come in my car" The principal offered. Coach Bolton nodded, as we both started to follow Mr. Matsui to his car.

"How come the girl's coming?" Coach Bolton asked, as we got into the car.

"Troy has been calling for her, and the doctors think it's best that she stays with him, sinse he seems to need her so badly"

I buckled myself up in the backseat of the car, and looked out the window, trying to avoid Coach Bolton's hard glare.

"Are you sure that he wasn't calling for someone in his family?" Coach asked, turning back to Mr. Matsui. "like Jack?"

"He was clearly saying Gabriella" Mr. Matsui shook his head.

I heard Coach Bolton grunt, as he looked at me again.

At the hospital, i was instructed to sit in a hard plastic chair outside of Troy's room as Mr. bolton went inside to visit his son. it was only fair, sinse Troy was his son.

Mr. Matsui rushed back to school, before someone else got injured, because East High has a reputation of going crazy when the principal isn't there. Trust me, i know.

After about 20 minutes, Mr.Bolton came out of the room, putting on his jacket.

"You can go in now, i guess" he sighed.

"Thanks" I smiled, trying to get on his good side. I couldn't tell if it was working or not, by his expressionless face.

"He's awake now. I'm going back to school. Call if anything happens" he said, nodding at me, then heading for the elevators.

I took a deep breath and stood up. i was finally going to see him. I had to be strong. No freaking out, i told myself.

I slowly walked to the door of Troy's room, and watched him for a moment. Troy was lying in a hospital bed, bandages all around his middle. His eyes were closed, so i assumed that he was sleeping. i opened the door slowly, trying not to wake troy, and tip toed into the room.

"Gabriella..." Troy mummbled, holding out his hand. He opened his perfect blue eyes, and gave me a small smile.

"hey" I smiled, sitting down next to his bed, and taking his hand.

"Are we still broken up?" he asked.

"no" I laughed. Troy always knows how to make me laugh, no matter what. "This can be our last day together, alright?" i smiled, stroking his hair.

"Good." Troy said.

"God troy, I hate seeing you like this!" I said, feeling tears for about the millionth time in the last day.

"I sorry Gabi. This is all my fault" Troy said.

"What? Stop saying that troy, this isn't your fault!"

"Yes it is! If i had just waited a bit longer to cross the street..."

"It's the cars fault okay?" I said, trying to stop troy from blaming himself. "This is our last day together, lets just make it all that we can" i smiled.

"That's my Gabi, always looking on the bright side" Troy laughed.

Okay guys, only one more chapter in this 'tense', then we'll be traveling 5 years into the future (when they're in their last year of University)
