Chapter 9 - Goodbye West High
Gabriella sleepily rubbed her eyes, as she realised she had fallen asleep on her chair. She got up, her back aching from her uncomfortable position.
Who was that last night? She remembered bumping into someone, their conversation circling her head. He wasn't Chad, so who was he? She wasn't that bothered, anyways, she'd probably never see him again.
Opening her door she looked across the hall to see the bathroom door wide open. 'That's weird' she tought. It was never open at this time. She quickly checked her clock, yep, it was only 7:13am. 'Oh well'.
After getting ready she trudged downstairs, al ready to grab her toast and head out the door.
"Gabriella, in the kitchen!" came her mother's voice.
Thats strange, she thought.
"Yeah", she said as she walked through the door. Her mother patted the chair beside her and Gabriella sat down.
"I have some news" Her mother said seriously.
"Ok, what is it?"
"The school phoned me yesterday" Gabriella's face dropped, "They cannot teach you anymore, in science, you are just too good" Her mother laughed slightly.
"So, you are to go and pick up your books, then tomorrow you start East High, " Maria closed her eyes, ready for Gabriella's outburst. But it never came.
"Ok" She got up, grabbed her toast, and headed for the door, "See ya later!"
She turned just as she got to the front door.
"By the way, 2 questions"
Her mother raised her eyebrow.
"Shoot" Maria replied.
"Where is Chad?"
"Early basketball practice" Her mother answered simply.
"And was anyone here last night, except us?"
"Yes"
"Who?"
"Get to school Gabi, you're going to be late!"
"Fine, fine"
And the door slammed shut.

"Thanks Miss Clarkson"
"Your welcome Gabriella, I'm sorry your leaving, you will be missed"
She giggled slightly, "Bye Miss Clarkson"
"Bye Gabriella"
Gabriella sighed, all books in her hands. She was about to walk out of the school for the last time. In a way it saddened her, but she wasn't going to miss it really. Gabriella loved change. She was bored of the same people pestering her. She was bored of her status as 'West High's Princess'. She just wanted to be a normal student. But even she knew it wouldn't be possible. If it had been another school, she would have been unknown. But it was her 'rival' school. Everyone at East High knew who she was. And by now everyone knew the new East High King. Troy Bolton.
She was brought out of her thoughts by a high pitched voice running at her. She turned around to see: Michelle.
"Hey Michelle"
"Where are you going?" Michelle panted, out of breath.
"Eh... I'm leaving"
"WHAT!"
Gabriella mentally closed her ears. Such a drama queen!
"Which school?" Michelle asked.
"East High"
Michelle suddenly couldn't breath. She had her hand at her chest, breathing heavily.
"Michelle, are you ok?"
"Tr...Troy...Bolton"
Gabriella rolled her eyes slightly, she should have known!
"Yup, he'll be there"
Michelle's eyes suddenly glinted, "Make sure you give him my number!" She she ran off.
Gabriella sighed, she didn't even get a real goodbye.
As she walked out the gates, she turned around again.
"Goodbye West High" she whispered. Then continued to walk to her car.
I know its really short, but I have to go and help my friend with her maths homework, so sorry. Its kinda a filler chapter, but next chapter she will meet Troy!
Keep checking in for that one, and R&R!!
