Chapter 9- Secret to Public
"Hey, Gabriella." Troy walked up behind her.
"Hey, Troy." Gabriella smiled weakly.
"Um… I'll pick you up tomorrow night, ok? (A/N: I don't really keep track of the dates. Sorry. Just go with the stuff I give you, ok?)
"Ok…" Gabriella smiled. "I gotta go meet up with Taylor. Bye, Troy."
"Bye." He looked around to make sure no one was paying attention, then he pecked her on the lips.
After class, Gabriella went to her locker to find a yellow sheet of paper fell down from her locker.
Hey Gabriella,
I don't know if I'm brave enough to say this to you in person. So I wrote it down. You might not take this so easily, but Jenna wants me to be with her again so that our secret relationship wouldn't spill. I promise that I'll still see you and I still like you a lot more than Jenna. Plus you're cuter too. :)
Love,
Troy.
Gabriella thought the note was cute but also heartbreaking. They weren't together for a long time, but why did Gabriella feel so heartbreaking unlike her other break ups? But then she realized that Troy didn't say that they'd break up, he said that he has Jenna as a girlfriend too. How could Troy be a boyfriend of two girls? She took out her cellphone and texted to Troy.
Gabriella: Meet me in the Music room during lunch, k?
And that, she closed her sidekick and put it in her locker.
Troy got Gabriella's message and grew a little worried. She probably read his note. He opened the doors of the music room to find Gabriella already there.
"You're late again." She said, sadly.
"What's wrong?" Troy knew exactly what's wrong, but he felt like he had the need to ask.
"Troy, if you don't want to make this hard, let's just break up." She spoke up bravely.
"Babe, I didn't mean it that way, I still will be with you but I will have to pretend to like Jenna at the same time."
"I'd rather you not, cuz every time I see you with that… whore I feel lonely and like my heart had been stabbed." Gabriella let out her anger.
"I'm sorry you feel that way but don't you want our relationship to be a secret?" Troy was confused.
"I did. But if you have to suffer to have 2 girlfriends and one you don't even like, then I'd tell the school." Gabriella gave him a smile.
"Really?" Troy didn't want Gabriella to be upset because she didn't want him to be upset. "I don't mind if you don't mind? But the school is going to go crazy!"
"It's fine by me. As long as you're happy. I'm happy." Gabriella hugged him.
Jenna looked through hallways and rooms but can't seem to find Troy. She walked down the silent hall where the music room is located in the corner. Jenna peeked inside and saw Gabriella kissing Troy. Her anger is now bursting out of her body. They don't even look cute together. She thought.
She chose this moment to interrupt the couples lovey dovey moment. "Get off of my boyfriend, Montez!" She pushed the two apart violently.
"Jenna, what the hell?" Troy glared angrily at her.
"What the hell, you?! I thought you told me that you dumped that Montez!" Jenna cried.
"I never said that, Jenna! Stop lying! You just wanted me to be with you cuz you will get more attention!" Troy saw through her.
"Troy, you totally misunderstood! I love you, Troy! And who are you gonna pick? Me or Slut Montez?" Jenna's eyes started to tear up.
"Troy, if Jenna is the one that loves you, I should go since I don't love you. I can't use that big of a word yet." Gabriella headed towards the door with tears in her eyes.
"Gabriella! You don't love me yet! You will. And I will. I don't even like Jenna!" Troy blocked the door and forced a hug with her.
Gabriella didn't pull away though. She stayed there frozen. She really needed that hug.
Jenna's eyes are starting to burn up. Not with tears, with anger. "Troy, do you pick me or Montez?!"
"Gabriella." Troy kissed Gabriella's forehead.
"What?!" Jenna yelled as Gabriella smiled.
"I said Gabriella Montez!" Troy clarified.
"Ok, your secret relationship will become public in the next second!" Jenna slammed the door hard as she walked down the hall.
"Gabriella, I'm sorry if you're hurt by Jenna's behavior." Troy hugged Gabriella tightly as he apologized.
"No, it's ok." Gabriella had never in this world had a boyfriend that did that for her. She pulled away and lightened up the mood. "Troy, I don't want to go out on Friday. Can you come over to my house instead, so we can watch a movie or two?"
Troy smiled. "Of course."
Jenna, Natasha, and Caroline knocked on the school paper editing room.
"Co…come in."
Jenna swung open the door coolly.
Kyle Paxton (the school paper nerd) adjusted his round glasses with his short bitten-nailed finger. "Um… may I he.. Help you?"
"Kyle, I'm gonna ask this as nice as possible." Jenna gave him a sweet smile as Kyle stepped back from her feeling frightened. "If I pay you 50 bucks and find you a girlfriend, will you mind writing this for me?" She handed him a sheet of paper with a typed article on it. Jenna stepped forward, making Kyle breath harder by the scent of Jenna's strong perfume.
"A…a….girl…friend?" Kyle pushed up his glasses nervously.
"Yep." Jenna smiled sweetly. "And she will be as hot as me."
"T…twent….twenty bucks?" Kyle stuttered as he stepped back from Jenna.
"Oh yeah…" Jenna smiled devilishly.
"Well…" Kyle bit his bottom lip…
