Ok, so this is a pretty fast update, but it's not too long or too interesting. If you give me a lot of reviews I might be able to make it this fast again!

Gabriella nervously looked through her closet… she only had 30 minutes to get to Troy and she didn't know what to wear! As she bit her lip, she silently cursed herself for getting so much 'Vanessa' clothes, she didn't have a clue what to choose... Suddenly she heard her ring-tone coming from her room and she quickly walked out of her gigantic build-in closet to fetch it.

"Talk to me..." She stuck her phone between her ear and her shoulder and walked back to her closet, hesitating before walking through the hallway with skirts, and brushing through them.

"Hi Gabs!"

"Hi G!" She frowned slightly, why were Diane and Ashley calling her? She hadn't missed anything important had she? She bit her lip before leaving the skirts to look at some jeans.

"Oh, hi Di, Ash... whatcha calling for?"

"Oh, we just wanted to know who you'd been texting to all weekend?!" Gabriella bit back a sigh, typically Ashley to ask something like that. Ashley was almost a nicer version of Sharpay, only not obsessed with a guy of some sort and the colour pink. She hesitated slightly about telling them, before deciding there was no reason she shouldn't and quickly walking towards her bag collection.

"Just this guy I'd been on a date with Friday, actually I'm going over to his place in 25 minutes… You don't accidentally know anything I could wear do you?"

"OMG! You had a date?"

"Why didn't we hear sooner?! Gabs!" Gabriella giggled.

"Sorry, it just never really came up, but you've got any ideas? Please?"

"Ok, keep it simple: jeans, top, bag, ballet flats, jacket, side-ponytail, mascara, lip gloss… yet sexy: make the jeans skinny, the top tight, the bag and ballet flats matching with the top, take your leader jacket, the beige one, and maybe at some kind of accessory to your hair… oh and of course accessories in general…" Gabriella grinned at Diane's response, trust her to know exactly what to wear.

"Ok, I'll do that. But I gotta go, get ready… Love you, guys, see you tomorrow at the photo-shoot!"

"Okay, Gabs, bye, but I want all the details tomorrow!"

"Also from Friday! Love you and see you tomorrow!" Quickly Gabriella hang up before walking back to the jeans, she hesitated slightly before picking a dark-blue skinny jeans. She than walked to the tops where she picked out a colourful one that was tied behind her neck. She kept her shoes and bag a simple white, to avoid too much colour in her outfit. All in all, she picked and put it on in five minutes, leaving her 15 minutes to get to Troy's. Quickly she put on some mascara, a soft pink lip-gloss, put her hair in the side-ponytail adding a white headband, and put in small pink flower earrings and some silver bracelets on her right arm, before grabbing her jacket and running down the stairs.

"Mum, I'm going!" Gabriella, once again, tried to escape the house without her mothers' inspection. The last time had not only annoyed her, but also taken more time as she was willing to lose now, considering there were now only had 10 minutes left, and she actually wasn't exactly sure where Troy's house was, as she realized suddenly.

"Wait a minute, Mija…" But of course she wasn't to be so lucky… Gabriella sighed as she turned to see her mum come to stand in the doorway of the kitchen. She looked at her outfit, and than made a movement with her hand for Gabriella to turn. She quickly obeyed, and she nodded. "You look pretty." Gabriella smiled at her.

"Thanks mum," She lent forwards and pecked her cheek. "Gotta go, don't wait up for me!" And than she ran out of the door. As Gabriella bolted into her car, she tried to remember Troy's address, and after a couple of seconds it came back to her and she quickly started the engine. Gabriella frantically drove through the familiar streets, and slowly started remembering the houses she'd only walked by occasionally. She drew a halt as she saw Troy's house number and parked her car on the drive. The moment she stepped outside of her car, Gabriella heard yelling coming from the backyard, curiously, she followed it.

"C'mon, Chad! Get out! I'm not gonna give you a rematch, again… just accept that I'm way better than you are and get the hell out of here!" That was definitely Troy's voice, and apparently he was trying to get Chad away, who wouldn't budge because he wanted a rematch because Troy beat him at basketball… weird.

"Ah, c'mon Hoops! You can't throw me out of my own house!" Gabriella stopped at the opened backyard door, and watched as Troy looked at Chad weirdly. Both of them where wearing shorts and wife beaters.

"Ehm… Chad, this is my house." Gabriella muffled her laugh at Danforth's stupidness, she'd have to tell Taylor latter… but she'd have to tell her everything latter anyways. Chad looked at Troy in disbelief before exclaiming his protest loudly.

"Well, yeah, but we're brothers, man, so it's my house as well, plus I practically live here." Before Troy could answer that, a woman standing in the doorway of the backdoor interrupted. Gabriella hadn't noticed her earlier and judging the faces of the boys, neither had they. She thought it must be Troy's mother, she had his eyes… or he hers, really.

"Nothing more true… but you better get going nevertheless, 'cause Troy's 'not-really-a-date-just-a-something-more-as-a-friend-coming-over' is standing there…" Gabriella flushed as the woman pointed her way, and all heads turned.

"I, well… I heard voices, so I, well, followed them." Troy grinned at her, whilst Chad simply stared, making her rather uncomfortable. She shuffled on her feet nervously, and stared at the floor. She'd never gotten used to people staring at her like that, it was unnerving.

"Ehm… well, Chad this is Vanessa. Vanessa, this is Chad, remember, from the party? He's my best friend." Gabriella shook Chad's hand, whilst he still stood staring at her wide-eyed and jaw on the floor. She bit my lip to hold her laughter, and saw Troy fight to keep his face straight as well. It was just unbelievingly amusing to see the normally so wild, hyperactive and loud Chad Danforth, standing there completely frozen on the spot in shock. Troy and Gabriella managed to contain their laughter for another five seconds, than Troy burst out laughing and Gabriella started giggling behind her hand. At the sudden sounds, Chad seemed to regain consciousness, and shook his head, before turning bright red. He quickly said a goodbye to Troy, who had tears in his eyes and was doubling over in laughter, avoided Gabriella's eyes and ran towards the fence and jumped over it. After several more minutes of laughter, she was finally able to talk again, and used that to clear up the weird detail in Chad's departure.

"Why did he jump over the fence?" Troy looked at her, whilst wiping the tears from his eyes, and Gabriella noticed how blue his eyes really were. I mean, yeah, she'd heard the cheerleaders talk about how beautiful his eyes were, so bright blue, but she'd only ever seen them in a darker shade, filled with hatred.

"He lives next door… oh, that was just great." He let out a last chuckle before looking her in the eye. "Ehm, do you wanna get inside?" She quickly nodded, and smiled at him. He grinned back and started walking, Gabriella following behind. First, he led her through the living room, which was huge, with a flat-screen and two couches and all kinds of game-computer-thingies. Than he led her through the dining room, which was simple with a long black and table and black chairs, into the kitchen. The moment they arrived there, Troy turned to the fridge and emptied about half of it. As he turned around and was met with Gabriella's disbelieving stare, he turned bright red.

"What?! I'm a growing boy, I need food! And I don't wanna have to walk up and down from my room…" Gabriella grinned at him in amusement, he stuck out his tongue, she rolled her eyes playfully. Troy let out a dry chuckle, before shaking his head and walking into the hallway, up the stairs, to the attic, that was apparently his room. As she entered after him, Gabriella realized this was his room. Everywhere where the colours of East High, there was a basketball painted on his headboard, a miniature basket hoop on the back of the door and a couple of pictures of him playing basketball or him with his friends on a dresser. Overall, it was quite overwhelming for someone with as little school spirit as her…

"Earth to Vanessa…" Her head snapped around at the sound of Troy's voice and found him grinning at me. Gabriella blushed slightly, realizing she'd been staring at his room quite long. "You wanna watch a movie or something?" She nodded. He stood up and walked to dresser, where he opened the highest drawer, which was completely filled with DVD's. "Ok… ehm…you wanna pick?" She hesitated slightly before nodding, and walking up to him. She looked in the drawer and found it to contain mostly horror and action movies, but also a fair share of comedies. Now, she hated horror, enjoyed action, but was an absolute sucker for comedies! So she looked through those, and in the end picked out one she didn't know yet. She handed it to Troy, who plopped it into the DVD-player, put the television on, and plopped down on the bed. When Gabriella didn't immediately follow, he motion with his hand for her to join him. She hesitated slightly, but than thought, 'What the heck', and made herself comfortable beside him.

Troy stared at the screen, all the while extremely aware that he was lying next to Vanessa in his bed. That gave so many possibilities, so much chances. But he'd have to take things slow, if he wanted this to be a real relationship and no hook-up or stupid fling. He turned his head and watched as she laughed at the movie. The sound of it was like music in his ears. Ok, wait, what was that?! The sound of it was like music to his ears, that was just creepy. C'mon, maybe she looked really cute when she laughed, she'd show all her perfect white teeth, and there would appear cute little dimples in her cheeks… Man, was he deep down. He turned his attention to the screen, and just than she pointed to it.

"You see that guy, there, in the back?" Troy frowned slightly, before he realized who she was talking about. It was a short, middle-aged guy, with a fat stomach and a stubble of a few days, who looked rather unhygienic.

"Yeah, what about him?"

"He looks just like you." Troy turned at her in horror and shock, and she erupted in a fit of giggles at his expression. Quickly he grabbed a handful of the popcorn he'd brought and threw it on her. She gasped in shock, but before she could do anything else, he was already on top of her and tickling her sides. Immediately she burst out laughing again.

"Troy! Stop it! Stop… tickling… me!" Gabriella struggled to get the words out as he was still tickling her merciless.

"Not until you say: Troy Bolton is the hottest guy alive."

"Never!" Immediately Troy started tickling her even more and her giggles increased as well, causing her to get out of breath, as he still sat on top of her, laughing as well.

"OK! Troy Bolton is the hottest guy alive!" As Troy stopped tickling her, Gabriella's giggles subsided and slowly died out, breathing heavily she looked up at him, and it was than he realized their position. But instead of hurriedly getting off and trying to rub of the awkwardness with a comment, he placed both of his arms next to her shoulders and slowly leaned closer, watching as her eyes closed before closing his as well, their lips only inches apart.

So, REVIEW!!! Btw, I'm also staring on a fanfic for Harry Potter, Diary of Ginny Weasley, soon. Just if any of you are interested…
