Chapter 7
Gabriella's POV:
The day of the show was here and I wasn't nervous, I was more focused on Troy and our future. I wasn't sure what was going to happen, but I knew that I couldn't lose him, he'd become my best friend, my boyfriend, my Wildcat.
Troy's POV:
The day on the show was scary, not only was I singing, but graduation was here as well, and I knew Brie and my future was around the corner, but I knew I didn't want a future without her, she was my girl, my best friend, and my 'Brie.'
Kelsi's POV:
It was time for the show. I walked out and took my place the the piano, and started to play….
Kelsi
It's our last chance to share the stage
Before we go our separate ways
Kelsi & Ryan:
High School wasn't meant to last forever
It's our last chance for us to shine
To bring you music one more time
So come on, come on, come on
(Come on, come on, come on)
Come on, come on, come on

A hundred different directions
But whatever happens

You're on my mind
You're in my heart
It doesn't matter where we are

Here and now it's time for celebration
We finally figured it out (yeah yeah)
That all our dreams have no limitations
That's what it's all about
"Ladies and Gentlemen, our seniors," Ms Darbus said as we walked out on stage.
"Ms Kelsi Neilson, Julliard Scholarship Recipient, Music," she said, Kelsi jumped up and down.
"Jason Cross. You did it. You graduated," she said, Jason jumped up and hugged Zeke.
Ms Taylor McKessie, Yale University with honor, Political Science," she said, Tay snapped her finger with her famous attitude.
"Mr Ryan Evans, Julliard Scholarship Recipient, Choreography," she said, Ryan was so surprised.
Ms Sharpay Evans, University of Albuquerque's s School of Performing Arts Scholarship, Ms Evan will return next fall to assist me in running the drama department," she said, Shar bowed and showed off her initials on her cap.
"And now a senior with a decision to make, Mr Troy Bolton, Troy?" she said. "I've chosen basketball, but I've also chosen theater. The University of California, Berkley offers me both. That's where I'll be attending next fall, but most a of all I choose the person who inspires my heart, which is why I chose a school that is 32 miles from you," I turn and look at Brie who has a stunned look, "Ms Gabriella Montez, Stanford University, Prelaw," I said as I lead her to take a bow.
"Next, Mr Chad Danforth, University of Albuquerque, Basketball Scholarship, Mr Danforth," she said to a missing Chad.
"Troy, he's gone," Tay say, then I run out cause I know where he is.
Everyone is special in their own way
We make each other strong (make each other strong)
We're not the same
We're different in a good way
Together's where we belong
We're all in this together
Once we know
That we are
We're all stars
And we see that
We're all in this together
And it shows
When we stand
Hand in hand
Make our dreams come true... (Make our dreams come true...)
Together, together, together everyone
Together, together, come on let's have some fun!
Together, we're there for each other every time
Together, Together come on let's do this right!
We're all here
And speaking out with one voice (one for all)
We're going to rock the house (yeah...)
The party's on now everybody make some noise
Come on scream and shout!
We've arrived because we stuck together
Champions one and all
We're all in this together
Once we know
That we are
We're all stars
And we see that
We're all in this together
And it shows
When we stand
Hand in hand
Make our dreams come true...
We're all in this together!
Together!
Chad's POV:
I couldn't believe Troy's choice, but I get his thinking. I just wanted a few more moments in my home, the basketball court. Troy come running in as I make a shot, "He makes it in, and the crowd goes wild," he says as he makes the cheering sounds, "I guess once they give us our diplomas we're done here," I say, "What makes you think we're getting them" he says joking, "One question, does Berkley play?" I asked, "Oh yeah. We're schedule to kick some serious U of A next year," he says with a smerk on his face, "Game on Troy," I say, "Game on Chad," then he steals the ball as we play one last lay-up, then the girls walk in, "Guys. We got to get back out there and finish," Tay and Brie say, so we all walk back to the stage.
Troy's POV:
They chose me to give the speech in front of the senior class.
"East high is where teachers encouraged us to break the status quo, and define ourselves as we choose. Where a brainiac and can break down and dance, where a jock can bake anything he wants. It's a place where one person, if it's the right person, changes us all. East High is having friends that we'll keep for the rest of our lives. I guess that means, we are in all this together cause once a Wildcat, always a Wildcat. Thank you," I say, then shake hands with the principle, and join Brie in the crowd. "Congratulations Seniors," the principle says as we all yell and throw our caps in the air
We're all in this together
Once we know
That we are
We're all stars
And we see that
We're all in this together
And it shows
When we stand
Hand in hand
Make our dreams come
We're all in this together
When we reach
We can fly
Know inside
We can make it
We're all in this together
Once we see
There's a chance
That we have
And we take it
We're all in this together!
Ahh... All in this together!
Congratulations Brie," I say, "You too Wildcat. I love you," she says, then I get ready to really shock her.
Gabriella's POV:
As we are all hugging I turn to see Troy getting down on his knees as he pulls out a ring, 'OMG,' I think, "Gabriella Anne Montez, will you marry me?" He asked, "Troy. Yes. I'd love to marry you," I say as we kiss, 'Now we are just getting started with our lives,' I think….?
