The Spark
Gabriella Montez had just said the few words that she never thought she would say. And now Troy Bolton stood before her, staring dumbfoundly off into space.
"Troy are you ok"? She asked gently bringing him out of his thoughts.
Troy shook himself out of his thoughts to face his girlfriend, his now ex girlfriend, Gabriella had just broken off their relationship of two years, claiming that the spark in their relationship was just no longer there. Of course Troy knew she was right, she always was, but still to go from seeing a person and being with a person every day and every waking minute of free time. The thought of no longer doing that just seemed so weird and out of place and Troy was left thinking now what?
Gabriella gave a small smile "I've been feeling like this for a while" she admitted shyly
Troy nodded, he may as well be honest "Me too"
Gabriella nodded "I thought so, I was just to scared to say anything sooner cause I didn't want to lose you as a friend Troy"
Troy cocked his head, She really was a sweet girl "Never Gabby, I'd like to remain friends " he reassured.
Gabriella's small smile turned into a grin "Great"
She clutched her books to her chest "So I'll see you around"
Troy smiled "Definitely"
A commotion from behind broke their moment and both of them turned to see one Kelsi Nielson sprawled on the floor, her papers everywhere.
She pushed her askew glasses back up and smiled when she saw her two friends in front of her.
Gabriella giggled and walked over to help her friend up
Kelsi gave a sheepish grin as Troy and Gabby bent down to help pick up her papers.
"Thanks guys"
One paper in particular caught his eye it was tilted the spark and below the title were lyrics
When you walk into the room
All the girls' eyes are on you
But what you don't know is that the girl in the back
Secretly wishes you were hers.
Cause when they're together
She feels a part
And when she's alone
It breaks her heart
But when they talk
It all makes sense
And she can see the spark
Whenever their eyes meet
If only he could see
He looked back up at his friend, so Kelsi liked a guy.
He gave a cheeky grin "So Kelsi" he said teasingly "who's the lucky guy"?
Realizing that not all her papers were safely back in her folder she turned to Troy in a panic
"Give that back to me" she said slowly, her face slightly turning red.
He held his arms up, making it impossible for the shorter girl to even reach if she were to jump.
"Do you really want it"? He grinned
"Yes" she cried desperately. "It's private"
Gabriella thinking of the only thing that Kelsi failed to think wriggled her fingers threateningly
"Troy" she called sweetly.
"Oh no"! He yelled "Not that!
Gabriella giggled
"Only if you don't give that back to Kelsi"
He pouted, "You took the fun out of it" he handed Kelsi the paper and randomly slung one arm around each of the girls.
"So, Kelsi"?
"What is it Troy?" she asked quietly.
Gabriella gave a knowing smile and lifted Troy's arm off of her "I'll see you around"
Kelsi gave her a pleading look, which Gabriella smiled and waved off.
Troy stared off after the brunette in confusion. What was going on here?
He shook his head and turned back to his other friend.
"I like your song" he said teasingly "Is it about anyone I know"? He added cheekily.
Kelsi looked up and he was surprised to see hot tears streaking down her cheeks.
"Kels?"
"I don't think it's funny at all" she sniffed.
"You read something that wasn't meant for your eyes, it's private and personal"
Troy paused mid step, scratching the back of his neck awkwardly. He wasn't comfortable with crying girls at all.
He patted his friend's shoulder "I'm sorry" he said sincerely.
Kelsi sighed and finally gave a nod.
"Ok" she replied.
They continued walking, Troy not realizing where he was leading her.
Kelsi looked around in awe at the garden.
"Wow" she breathed.
Troy smiled "It is pretty amazing isn't it"?
"It's beautiful," she whispered.
Troy shuffled his feet. This was his and Gabriella's spot, he expected it to feel awkward, but having Kelsi here with him, well it felt ok, and it felt kind of right.
"You know I'd love to hear your song sometime"
Kelsi looked up, an undistinguished look in her eyes.
"You would"?
Troy nodded "Sure"
"I'll play it for you sometime" she added, giving a slight shiver.
"Are you cold"? Asked Troy suddenly, before she could answer he had taken off his jersey and had hung it over her shoulders.
He let out a small chuckle at seeing his big heavy jersey over her small frame.
"Thanks" she smiled.
He cocked his head to the side, Gabriella used to wear his jersey, Yet here stood Kelsi and well she looked good, very good. Before he could think three words escaped his lips.
"It looks good on you".
Kelsi's cheeks were slightly red "Thanks" she repeated.
They stood in silence for a while. The atmosphere was tense, each of them unsure of what was quite going on.
"Troy?"
"Kels?"
And suddenly they were facing one another, their faces inches apart.
Their eyes were locked and Kelsi gulped as Troy leaned forward.
His lips brushed hers and Troy noted how soft her lips felt and how they tasted of honey and berries.
Kelsi not sure what to do was only sure of one thing, she was kissing him back.
And when Troy pulled back he smiled at the dazed look in Kelsi eyes.
After a moment she looked at him questionly.
Troy grinned and pulled her back toward him, he simply whispered.
"Spark"
