After a long day at school, Juliana gave Gabriella a call and ordered her to go to the supermarket and grab a few things. As if Gabriella isn't tired enough. When she got home and opened the front door, Gabriella was surprised by her two stepsisters standing in front of the door.

Danielle: Stop it right there.

GM: (shocked) Geez guys. Ever heard of a simple "hello"?

Christina: Not in your case.

GM: (rolls her eyes) What do you want now? Been raiding my room again.

Christina: No. We just want to let you know that we know.

GM: (confused) Know what? How to work the oven?

Danielle: Funny. We know that you went to the masquerade ball and danced with him.

GM: (tries to play it cool) Danced with who?

Christina: Duh! Who else? Troy Bolton.

GM: (laughs) Ok you guys are funny.

Danielle: Just so you know, we're not planning to tell our mom. But! If you're planning to tell Troy that it was you he danced with, you'll be dead.

Christina: (holds out a tape) And this tape will end up on youtube.

GM: Like i said, you two don't even know how to work the oven, let alone youtube.

Christina: Try us then.

GM: Whatever. You guys are weird. (walks away)

Christina: Oh yeah?! Well you more of a weirdo than any of us!

Christina turned to Danielle who is exiting the house.

Christina: Where are you going?

Danielle: (lies) Nowhere. I mean for a walk. Alone. For a few minutes.

Christina: Alright. Good luck. Oh and bring an umbrella. It looks like it's gonna rain out there. Just saying.

Danielle: Right. Thank you. Later.

Danielle wasn't really going for a walk, she was planning to go to Gabriella's room and find her playlist. She opened her door quickly and closed it. Now if i was a playlist, where would i be? Without thinking, she opened every drawer in the room and searched for the playlist everywhere. Then she saw, on Gabriella's bed, Gabriella's laptop. She turned it on and look at her music playlist and wrote the first 4 songs on her wrist. She quickly closed the laptop and left the room.

Few hours later, after finishing all her chores, Gabriella decided to start with her homework. When she opened the door to her room, she found her room a complete mess. Her stuff were everywhere. She looked at her bed, which was the only neatest place and she saw her laptop being place nicely. Danielle. She knew it was Danielle did it because Christina was there when she was cleaning up the house. She quickly took out her cell phone, given by Sharpay, and dialed for Taylor.

TM: Hello?

GM: Tay, Danielle raided my room again.

TM: Hold on, i'm on the line with Sharpay too. I'll three-way you.

GM: (sighs) Sure.

SE: Danielle raided you room!?!

GM: (sarcastic) Hi to you too Sharpay.

SE: I'm sorry but what if she found your playlist and took down the first 4 songs and then she'll tell Troy it's her.

TM: I'll doubt Troy is that stupid Shar. Of course he knew that Danielle is not the one who he danced with that night.

SE: Well anything can happen. So Gabs, what are you gonna do now?

GM: (sighs again) I don't know. All i know is that it's gonna take all night for me to clean and organise everything in my room here.

TM: Need help?

GM: Forget it i'll do it myself.

SE: While you're doing that, can we talk about the fact that you still don't want to tell Troy that it's you?

GM: (sarcastic) Wow, are we still on that subject?

TM: I agree Gabs. You have to tell him. I bet he's dying to know who you are. Who knows, he might be the one for you.

GM: (laughs sarcastically) Yeah right. I can see it now, the popular boy and the loser nerd together. Oh and who knows, we might even get voted Best Couple for the yearbook.

SE: Why not? I'll vote for you. And not because i'm your best friend.

TM: And since i'm editor of the yearbook, your a shoo in to win.

GM: That's not the point guys.

SE: Then what is? To live your whole life with regret because you don't have the courage to tell the guy that might be already in love with you is you.

GM: Try to put yourself in my shoes guys, i mean, i am a maid to a fallen celebrity. I get mostly hand-me-down stuff and he's expecting Barbie. I am not Barbie ok? I'm not blonde or rich or beautiful-

TM: WRONG! You are beautiful ok? Remember the ball? Every guy had eyes on you. Even Troy.

GM: Only because they didn't know who i am.

SE: Even if you didn't wear the mask, you're still stunningly perfect. More perfect than anyone in school. That included Courtney.

GM: (sighs heavily) Can we talk about this tomorrow? I got alot of things to handle right now. Bye. (hangs up first)

Gabriella stopped and looked at her room. This was her life. Being a servant to Juliana and her daughters and herself. She looked at the picture of her and her mother which had fallen at the ground. She was glad that the frame didn't broke. She looked at the picture, remembering the time they took the picture. The picture was taken during her 10th birthday party and her mother had decided to throw a bash. There, she first met Juliana and her twins and after that, nothing was ever the same.

GM: (talks to the picture) I miss you mom. I wish you're here to help me.

Usually Gabriella would just cry after talking to her mom but not today. She was having to many feelings to cry.

The next day, Gabriella was walking at school and she suddenly felt like yawning. She yawned with her eyes close and found herself bumping into someone. She looked up and saw Troy who gave her his handsome smile.

TB: (smiles) You again? Why do we keep doing this?

GM: (giggles) I have no idea. I guess it's just coincidental.

TB: Yeah i guess. So see you around.

GM: Yeah see ya.

Gabriella watch as Troy enter the cafeteria all by himself. She thought that he probably still trying to find his mystery girl.

After a 10 minutes of searching for his girl, Troy finally had enough. He was tired of girls guessing it wrong. He told Chad to end the search short and forever. When he was having his lunch, he felt someone tapping on his shoulder. He turned around and saw Danielle.

TB: Hey, Danielle.

Danielle: I'm the one.

TB: (confused) What?

Danielle: I'm your mystery girl. Right here, in the flash.

CD: (sarcastic) Yeah and so is the few other 100 girls too.

Danielle: Look, i can prove it. I know all the songs in the iPod.

CD: Sorry. But Troy is not taking anymore wrong answers anymore.

TB: That's ok Chad. Let her give her answer. (turns to Danielle) So Danielle, what would it be?

Danielle: Ok, (looks at her wrist) Sexy Magic, When I Grow Up, Just That Girl and He Said She Said. Well?

Troy and Chad turn to eachother. They knew she guessd it right. It can't be her. No way in hell that's her. Troy thought in his head.

Danielle: I'm right. Right? What are waiting for? Kiss me! (quickly moves closer to Troy)

TB: (moves away) Whoa! Stop. First things first. We're gonna dance now.

Danielle: What! But you only said we need to know the songs. Plus i'm not warmed up and there's no music.

TB: (shruggs) Well if you are the girl, you don't need music. Well we gotta go. (walks away)

Danielle: (pushes Troy back) Wait! I was just kidding. I love to sing and dance!

Danielle started singing something and dancing around the cafeteria like a freak. Troy and Chad sneakily walked away, leaving Danielle and a few students taking a video and a picture of her.

In the hallways, Troy was at his locker taking out his books when Christina closed his locker and stand in front of it.

Christina: (smiles flirtaciouly) Hey Troy.

TB: (irritated) Wait don't tell me, you know all the songs too.

Christina: Well yeah. Why would i be here then. And i can show it to you too.

She grabbed Troy neck and tries to danced around him which made Troy rather uncomfortable. Troy quickly let go of Christina and walked away.

After school, Gabriella was in Taylor's van with Taylor and Sharpay eating snacks while Gabriella listen to Taylor and Sharpay pushing her to tell Troy.

SE: For the last time, please do it. He'll be happy and you'll-

TM: (squels at the sight of Troy from the van) Ohmygosh! There he is! You better go.

GM: (nods uneasily) You're right. I'm gonna do it. (stops and turns back to them) Oh wait! Let's get some more food.

SE: No. Just go.

Gabriella sighs and makes her way to Troy. I can do this. I can do this. I'm not gonna faint. He's not gonna think i'm a loser. Troy was about to enter his car with Chad until Gabriella called out his name.

GM: Troy?

TB: (turns around) Oh hi. Wassup?

GM: I need to tell you something. I'm-

CD: Wait. You work for Juliana right?

GM: What? No. I mean yes but that's not why i'm here. You see, i'm-

TB: Wait a minute. Did Juliana put you up to this?

GM: (confused) What?

TB: Of course. Juliana is so relentless. She'll do anything to get to my mom. First Danielle, then Christina and then you. I'm sorry but i think that you know that you're not my mystery girl. The girl i'm looking for is not you. I'm sorry. (enters his car and drove off)

Gabriella couldn't believe it. She didn't even tell him and he already rejected her. She walked back slowly to the van.

TM: I don't like that look.

SE: Gabi? Is everything alright? Did you tell him?

GM: (in tears) He didn't even gave me a chance to say anything.

TM: Aw, Gabi. Come here. (hugs Gabriella after she entered her van)

SE: (hugs her too) It's going be ok Gabi. If he dosen't wanna know the truth then it's his lost. Any guy would be happy to be with you.

TM: We're sorry we put you up to this.

GM: (lets go of the hug) It's ok. Let's just get outta here.
