Troy's POV
"Yes hello Ms. Montez?" I asked into the phone.
"Yes who is this?" She answered.
"It's me Troy, I think I know where Gabriella could be. No tiny details but I think she's in San Diego." I told her.
"Why would you think that?" She asked.
"She finally answered her phone and said she was at an old friend's house. She also said she worked singing at a café, so I went and searched around until I found the Wildcats' café, which looked like our old school. The women said that she did work there a couple years ago but not anymore. She wouldn't give me anymore information so I left and now I am at a hotel." I informed her.
"This is great. She only had four friends in San Diego, but her best friend was, Corrie Sanchet." Ms. Montez said.
"Great I will look her up." I exclaimed.
"Troy, tell her to call me if you find her." She said.
"Don't worry I will." I agreed.
After hanging up the phone I got out my laptop and searched under Corrie Sanchet.
My result,
Corrie Sanchet.

Gabriella/Ella's POV.
"Alright, I got to go. Bye Ava I'll see you later tonight, be good for auntie Corrie." I said.
"Alright mommy." She said.
"Bye Corrie take care of my baby." I told her.
"Bye Gabs don't worry have fun at the concert." Corrie told me as I headed out the door to my car. I knocked into someone but we quickly passed each other and went our own way. I got into my car and drove to a place where I would get into my limo.
Troy's POV.
I made my way up the stairs after knocking into someone that looked like she was in a hurry so I kept going. 142… 143…. 144! I thought about what I would say and then I knocked on the door.
"May I help you?" The woman asked.
"Yes might you be Corrie Sanchet?" I asked.
"That is me." She said.
"Does a Gabriella Montez live here?" I asked.
"Yes she does who are you?" She asked.
"I'm someone she knows." I told her not wanting the same reaction as Cherry.
"I can't let you see her if you don't tell me who you are, and I know the names of all her old friends." She said.
"Fine, I'm Troy Bolton, her ex-boyfriend." I told her. She went wide-eyed and fainted falling backward but I caught her quickly and brought her over to the couch.
"Hello mister, who are you?" A little boy asked.
"My name is Troy what's yours?" I asked.
"My name is Brent." He said.
"How old are you Brent?" I asked.
"I'm five… Why is mommy sleeping?" He asked.
"Uh… she got tired all of the sudden." I made up.
"Oh…" He replied going back into the room he was in.
"Corrie, wake up." I shook her a little bit before she opened her eyes.
"Huh? Uh… right. Troy, what are you doing here?" She asked.
"I'm here to find Gabriella." I told her.
"I figured that…" She said.
"Please where is she?" I asked.
"She's working." Corrie said.
"Auntie Corrie, when will mommy be home?" A little girl asked. Corrie paled at that.
"She will be home later Ava." Corrie told the girl.
"Oh." Ava said.
"Who's daughter is this?" I asked.
"She's a friend's I'm babysitting for her." Corrie said. I nodded.
"Come on Troy, I'll show you around." She said.
"Cool." I said following her.
"This is the living room and kitchen." She pointed at the two rooms that were connected.
"Neat." I said.
"Yea this is the bathroom if you need it and this is my room and Gabriella's." Corrie said pointing at two shut doors.
"Can I see Gabriella's?" I asked.
"I don't know… If I should let you." Corrie debated.
"Well, whether or not you want, I will see Gabriella again even if you make me leave." I said.
"True… Hold on…" She said walking into Gabriella's room. I waited a couple minutes before she came back out and said I could go in. I went in and looked all over. It was really neat. There were pictures of the gang all over. There were also pictures of her and I. Two of them were from Twinkle Town musical. A couple we were kissing and one was Junior Prom. There were also some with her mom. Walking over to the bed I found that she still had the pillow I gave her. I chuckled and walked over to the dresser and found a picture of her with Ava, Brent, and Corrie. There was even a picture of Brent kissing Ava on the cheek. That was a cute picture. There were pictures of the café too. Then my eye caught a piece of pink on a chair next to the dresser. I lifted a sweater off of it and found it was a scrap book Gabriella and I made together. I flipped to the second to last page that said, 'I know the world can see us… in a way that's different then who we are.' From the song 'Breaking Free' we sang in Twinkle Town, the picture was right when we were singing the phrase. Then I looked at the last page. It was a close up of us where we wre kissing in the rain. Our hair was drenched and we looked cold, but you could see the passion in it. I smiled and walked out of the room.
"Are you leaving?" Corrie asked.
"Well… if I don't will you call the police?" I asked.
"I won't if you promise me something." Corrie said.
"Ok what is it?" I asked.
"One, you won't get mad at her at all if you see her. And two, don't blame it on me that I let you in." Corrie said.
"Deal." I replied.
"Alright, Gabriella should be home in and hour and a half… in the mean time turn the channel to 17. Don't you want a drink? Dr. Pepper? Good." She said walking into the kitchen and grabbing two pops. I turned on the TV and saw a singer named Ella Tez.
"WAHHHHH!" A cry came from the other room.
"Brent! What did you do to Ava?" Corrie yelled giving me a pop and going into that bedroom.
"He won't play Barbie's." Ava said.
"Maybe if you promise to play something he likes after he will." Corrie suggested.
"Will you?" Ava asked.
"Yea! We could play house and I could be the daddy and you could be the mommy." Brent said.
"Who's the baby?" Ava asked.
"Sandy!" Brent said referring to their little cocker spaniel puppy.
"Yay!" Ava said and they started playing.
