Thanks to the people who reviewed on Start of Something New I will be posting the first chappie next year, a month's time. Anyway, the people who haven't read my trailer, I'd appreciated it if you did...THANKS!!!
Gabriella felt anxious about going to school the next day. Troy would come up to her at some point, and it was a situation she wasn't willing to confront at the moment. A small part of her felt good that it had finally got out to someone. But the rest of her was worried about what Troy would do.
Would he tell the others?
If he did, how would they react?
On the bus, she made a point of not looking at Troy, and smiling at Kelsi. Kelsi looked uncertain, but walked over and sat beside Kelsi. Gabriella took a deep breath and got straight to the point.
"Sorry that I didn't come to the music room after school yesterday," Gabriella said. "I was…busy." Kelsi nodded and gave Gabriella a small smile.
At school, Kelsi walked off with Taylor and Chad. Troy walked over to Gabriella, and Gabriella glanced at him out of the corner of her eye. They walked in silence up the steps and into the school. There were more than one or two people who gave them strange looks. They all wondered why Troy had forgiven Gabriella. They reached Gabriella's locker, and Gabriella stopped to open it. Troy stopped as well, and leaned against the locker beside hers.
"Look, I told Taylor, okay? I haven't told anyone else because I didn't think you'd want me to," Troy said it matter-a-factly, like he was just trying to get it out and get away. "I'll see you later." Troy walked away down the hallway. Gabriella inhaled shakily and leaned on her locker door. The first bell went, and students began filing into their classes. Gabriella sighed and walked into her first class.
Sharpay Evans let her icy gaze go from Gabriella to Troy and then back to Gabriella. She sat at her seat at the front of class and smiled disarmingly at Ms Darbus. Ms Darbus called the roll and then she allowed the class to talk quietly. No one spoke to Gabriella--even Troy--and so she sat at the back quietly, reading the posters on the walls. Then the bell went and everyone poured out of the class-rooms.
Gabriella walked to her next class alone. Taylor was walking behind her, but wasn't sure what to say, so she stayed silent. Gabriella stopped at her locker and a piece of paper fluttered to the ground. Frowning, Gabriella picked it up. Taylor stood a little way off, wondering how Gabriella would react to the note.
Gabs, I'm so sorry. I shoulda listened to you. You're my bestfriend, even if I didn't act like it. Please forgive me, or else I'll never forgive me. This is awkward to write, but I guess this is the only way I can get your attention, since Troy says you're pretty mad--and you have every right to be. I'm there for you--we all are…
Tay.
Gabriella tapped her fingers against the note and glanced around, her eyes falling on Taylor. The two girls walked toward each other and hugged. Taylor whispered in Gabriella's ear,
"I'm soooo sorry!"
"S'alright," Gabriella replied.
Neither saw a vicious glare directed at them by Sharpay.
Ooh, Sharpie's mad. Note, this is not a Zekepay fic, there needs to be an evil schoolmate, and Sharpay's easiest.
Please review!
TOODLES!!
