Chapter 7 – Things Go All Wrong.
It was lunch and Gabriella was late as she had a volleyball meeting. She walked over to their usual table then froze.
Troy looked up to her and smiled as Gabriella mouthed to him, 'What is she doing here?', pointing to Hannah who was sitting beside him. Troy looked at Hannah then back to Gabi and mouthed back, 'I haven't dumped her yet.'
Gabriella sighed. She was so confused, she wanted Troy to end things with Hannah, but not for the reason everyone thought. Not because she was one of the most annoyingest people she has ever met. A different reason.
She sat down beside Sharpay, who pulled an angry face at her. Gabriella giggled then pulled one back.
"So Hannah, what brings you here?" Gabriella asked sweetly.
"Troy invited me."
"He did?" Chad asked, raising his eyebrows.
As Hannah began nodding, Troy was doing the exact opposite, trying to tell us he didn't.
"Why is it a problem? Because I and my Troykins can move, I mean we would like some privacy right?"
"Oh yeah sure whatever."
"The move." Taylor said plainly.
"What?" Troy shot back.
"You just said you want some privacy?" Gabi asked.
"Staying here is fine." Troy reassured us.

"You look great Gabi!" Taylor giggled as Gabriella twirled in her room. She had just finished getting ready for a date with Josh. Sharpay would of normally tagged along to help her get ready, but she was with Ross.
"Really?" She asked happily. She was wearing a short black dress, with a circle neck line which had diamonds on it.
The bell went as Taylor jumped up and down. "He's here!" She cried.
"Taylor, your more excited than me – you need to calm down sweetie!" I said laughing.
"Your right, come on!" She said grabbing her coat then leading me downstairs. She opened the door and grinned. "I'll just be off." She slid past Josh as Gabriella appeared by the door.
"Wow, you look amazing." Josh said softly.
"You look great yourself." Gabi smiled at him then look his hand and followed him into the car. He drove us to a posh restaurant. They both got out then walked inside.
"Reservations for Josh Jones." Josh said politely to the woman behind the desk.
"Right this way." She led them to a table beside the window.
Meanwhile, on Sharpay's date, she was having a great time, till something caught her eye.
"Oh my god!" She giggled then stood up. "GABRIELLA!" She shouted over the restaurant waving her arms about.
Everyone turned to face her and give her annoyed glares.
"WHAT? I KNOW THIS GIRL!" Sharpay giggled.
Gabriella looked round at everyone staring at her, and waved back, embarrassed.
"LOVE THE OUTFIT BY THE WAY!" Sharpay shouted.
"Sharpay, I think you should sit down.." Ross laughed.
Gabriella smiled then nodded then quickly turned around and sat opposite Josh.
"You know you have the most beautiful eyes. Chocolate brown." Josh said dreamily.
"Uh thanks?" She answered awkwardly.
"You're going to have to meet my parents! They will love you!" He gushed.
Gabriella nodded. This boy was supposed to be on the football team?!
"I'll have to meet your mom as well, I bet she's pretty like you, huh?" He grinned.
"Yeah, she's a stunner." She said sarcastically.
---
"Night Gabriella, I'll see you tomorrow!" Josh said leaning in to kiss her, but Gabi turned her head quickly to he only got her cheek.
"Yeah, see you." She said then ran inside. She leaned against the door and groaned. That had to be one of the worst dates ever. She began to head upstairs, as her phone rang.
"Hello?" She answered tiredly.
"Are you home?!" Troy asked frantically.
"Yeah, what's wrong?"
"Nothing, just wanted to check you got home safely."
"Aw thanks Troy." Gabi said softly.
"How was your date?"
"Terrible."
"Good. You deserve better than him." He said happily.
"Ended it with Hannah?" She asked hopefully.
"Yep."
"Good, she was so annoying. Anyway Troy I'm going straight to bed now, I'm so tired – thanks for calling to see if I'm okay though." She said, the hung up.
She took a quick shower then changed into her pyjamas and then fell to sleep.
---
"How was your date last night!?" Sharpay squealed running up to Gabriella.
"One of the worst ever." Gabi cried.
"How come!?"
"That boy is annoying. He's like constantly throwing complements, and is too forward."
"Oh." She paused.
"What?" I asked.
"Ugh." Sharpay groaned then pointed to Troy, making out with another girl.
"That's Mali, I heard he's with her." Gabriella sighed.
"Seriously, that boy cannot stay single."
"Nor keep in a relationship." Gabi laughed then headed into her maths classroom.
"Gabriella. I know you're the reason me and Troy broke up. And let me tell you now, I won't forget this." Hannah hissed as Gabi sat down.
She raised her eyebrows at her then opened her book.
"You should watch your back."
"And you should shave yours." Gabi grinned at her then turned back around.
--
"So Troy.." Mali giggled. "Wanna come over mine tonight?"
"I can't I have to watch Gabriella's game."
"So, she's a dork." Mali said like it was the most obvious thing ever.
"She's also my best friend."
"But you're not denying she's a dork." Mail winked at him then headed off down the corridor.
Troy stood there, thinking what Gabriella would do if he missed her game. She probably wouldn't notice anyway, right?
He shrugged it off then headed to the gym, to work on some throws.

It was lunchtime and the whole gang was sitting together, minus one of Troy's girlfriends.
"It's good to have you back man." Chad laughed.
"It's good to be back." He said grinning.
"Well look guys, I'm throwing a party after the game on Friday.. You guys up for it?" Chad asked us all.
"You know me, always up for a party!" Sharpay giggled, as Taylor nodded in agreement.
"What about you Gabs?"
"Sure, sounds good." She said smiling, hardly paying attention. She was picking at her food, confused why Troy could be such an ass sometimes, then sweet with her, making her feel he won't date anyone else because he likes her. Gabriella sighed. Who was she kidding? Troy doesn't like her. And she doesn't like him..
"Gabriella, can I talk to you?" Mali asked sweetly, appearing at the table.
"Me?" She asked confused.
"Is there another Gabriella on this table?" She laughed, looking around.
Gabriella smiled weakly, grabbed her bag, and then followed her outside. Once they turned around the corner, Mali's smile turned into a smirk.
"Look, I know you like Troy, and I want you to stay away from him." She said firmly.
"Troy's my best friend. You can't make me stay away from him."
"Oh yeah?" She asked evilly.
"Oh yeah." Gabriella nodded.
"We'll see." Mali said, then raised her hands and slapped Gabriella, hard across the cheek.
Gabriella gasped as she pushed her against a locker then started pulling her hair. Gabi pushed her off her then slapped her, even harder across the face.
Just as she done that, Troy walked out of the dinner hall.
"GABI!" He shouted.
