I told you I had some big things planed and that is no different for this chapter. I decided to do a little tribute to across the universe since it is the most amazing movie EVER. Enjoy!
Gabriella spent the rest of her weekend in a total daze, half of it was spent rambling to her friends about what had happened Friday night, and the other half was spent in despair knowing what she had done. Yes, Troy kissed her, but she kissed him back, and it was the greatest feeling ever. But as the same time Troy had a girlfriend, he may not has any feeling for her once so ever, but it was still wrong. Maybe Gabriella was doubting her feelings for troy, maybe it is so wrong, it could be right.
Gabriella signed as she closed her locker, Troy hadn't left her mind.
"Still thinking about Troy, aren't you?" asked Sharpay
"How could you tell?" returned Gabriella
"I know these things." Sharpay responded putting her hand on Gabriella's shoulder
"Well you never told me what happened between you and Zeke." Gabriella said walking to homeroom with Sharpay
"He's everything I thought he would be and more. He bakes you know." Sharpay said as she squeezed her books
"Really? That's always good." Gabriella responded
"He is too cute!" Sharpay spoke as she jumped into the air
"Is that why you wanted them to stay so bad?" asked Gabriella
"Mmmhhhmmmm" responded Sharpay nodding
"You sneaky little thing." Gabriella said bumping herself in to Sharpay
"Come on, if we're late to Darbus again who knows what she'll do." Gabriella said running with Sharpay
Ringgg, rinnggg
"Close girls, but I'll let it slide." Mrs. Darbus said as Gabriella and Sharpay ran through the door
Troy shot up in the air as Gabriella ran through the doorway, even out of breath and completely dismantled, she was still absolutely breath taking.
"Thank you, Mrs. Darbus." Gabriella said as she sat in her seat and looked over towards Troy and flashed her one of his million dollar smiles. Gabriella nearly felt a rocket shoot out of her body, just looking at Troy made her loose all feeling in her body. She just smiled back and then quickly looked away.
"Alright class, that's homeroom, have a nice day." Said Mrs. Darbus as the class began to leave
"Home rooms over?" asked Gabriella looking at Sharpay
"Yea, weren't you paying attention?" answered Sharpay
"I was studying for Chem." Responded Gabriella
"Chem is the last class you would ever study for." Sharpay said as she and Gabriella left the classroom and parted ways.

The rest of Gabriella's day went surprisingly well, no stops in the hall from Priscilla, no fights with Troy, nothing. Gabriella was walking to Mike's locker like she had done everyday since Tuesday, they would talk about there day, and Gabriella would sometimes give him a ride home.
Gabriella Turned the corner not expecting what she was about to witness. Stopping in her tracks, she stood there motionless, she could speak, she could move, all she could to was watch. Michael was at his locker, but pined up against it was none other than Priscilla. Gabriella couldn't stand to looked anymore, them all on top of each other, making out, not even paying attention to there surroundings. Gabriella couldn't stand it anymore, all the hurt that she never wanted to experience, and all the betrayal she wouldn't dare wish on anyone. She felt the tears coming like a damn on the verge of breaking, and nothing, or no one could stop it.
Gabriella began to shake; she then dropped her books, and ran. She turned that same corner that she had done moments before. Gabriella had her head in her hands, by this time she was hysterical, she didn't even see Troy walking down the wall. He and Gabriella soon collided and both fell to the floor. Troy looked up and saw Gabriella's face, it was wet from tears, and her eyes and cheeks wear puffy and red.
"Gabriella?" Troy said as he looked her right in the eyes. Gabriella quickly pulled herself up but then stumbled. Troy just watched as Gabriella regained her balance and ran off. After a few seconds he registered what had just happened and began to chase after her.
"Gabriella!" Troy screamed as Gabriella ran down the hallway. Gabriella didn't want anything to do with Troy; she didn't want anything to do with anyone. Gabriella didn't even notice that she had passed by Sharpay, Taylor, and Kelsi, soon after Troy followed.
"What's going on?" Taylor screamed towards Troy, he then stopped running in his tracks and turned back towards Taylor.
"I don't know." Troy said shaking his head
"You don't know?" Sharpay said raising her eye brow.
"I just saw her crying, and then she ran." Troy said still trying to catch his breath
"What's going on?" asked Chad as he, Zeke, and Jason walked over
"Come on, she's most likely home by now, we'll explain." Taylor said as they all ran into the parking lot
- - - - - - - -
"This is her house?" Chad said as the large group entered the house
"Yes, come on, she has to be in her room." Sharpay said as the group walked up the stairs
"Where are her parents?" asked Troy
"Her mom has been away on business for the past week and her dad…" Sharpay started as but then quickly stopped. Sharpay heard sobs from the bathroom and quickly ran towards the door,
"Gabriella!" Sharpay quickly ran towards the door and sat down,
"Gabriella? What's wrong? What happened?" Sharpay was in a state of mass panic, aside from Gabriella's own mother she was the closest thing Gabriella had. She knew how Gabriella ticked and most importantly what made her feel better.
"Gabby, please come out." Plead Sharpay as she put her hand on the door
Sharpay:
Dear Gabby,
Won't you come to play?
Dear Gabby,
Greet the brand new day,
The sun is up,
The Sky is blue,
It's beautiful,
And so are you,
Dear Gabby,
Won't you come out to play?
Everyone could hear the sobs quite down, Sharpay knew Gabriella from the inside out, and that the way to Gabriella's heart was through song.
"Troy, Sing!" Sharpay whispered towards Troy
"No way!" Troy said waving his hands in front of his face
"Troy! If you don't sing right this second, I swear by all that is good you won't be alive for your next basketball game!" Sharpay whispered louder this time
Troy:
Dear Gabby,
Open up your eyes.
Kelsi:
Dear Gabby,
See the sunny skies.
All:
The wind is low,
The birds will sing,
That you're a part of everything.
Troy:
Dear Gabby,
Won't you open up your eyes?
Kelsi, Taylor, and Sharpay:
Look around round round round round
Look around round round round round
All:
Dear Gabby,
Won't come out to play?
Dear Gabby,
Greet the brand new day,
The sun is up,
The sky is blue,
It's beautiful,
And so are…
Troy:
You!
All:
Dear Gabby,
Won't you come out to play?
Gabriella's body shifted on the opposite side of the door, if the events earlier that day didn't make her cry, that song sure did. She the sat up and turned the door knob and opened the door. When she opened it she saw a group of new friends, all sitting on the floor leaning against the door.
"I'm Ok, I promise." Gabriella said wiping her tears trying to be strong
"You are not ok." Sharpay said leading her towards her bedroom
"Now, what's going on?" Sharpay said stroking Gabriella's hair
"I was walking to Mike's locker, like I did everyday, and when I got there…" Gabriella said between sobs
"Then what?" asked Sharpay
"Then…then…." Gabriella threw her head into her hands
"Your stupid girlfriend, where all over each another!" Gabriella screamed and the broke out crying and threw herself into Sharpay's lap.
"What?" Troy said backing up
"YOU HEARD ME! Priscilla and Mike where were hooking up right in front of me!" Gabriella said with tears pouring
"I've been a good person, right?" Gabriella said looking over at Sharpay
"You've been an amazing person. You did nothing wrong, nothing." Sharpay said as Kelsi and Taylor joined them on the Bed. Troy was furious, things where going so well and as usual Priscilla got in the way.
Troy quickly sat up and walked out of the house.
AN: so what did you think? How did you feel about the song? Any idea's for the next chapter, or how you felt about this one? Tell me, I'd love to hear. Thanks for reading!
