Chapter 10: The Talent Show
Guys, I know that I'm posting two chapters in 1 day, and I'm sure you'd want me to do that way more often, but seeing that I am going to school tomorrow and I'm over being sick, I kinda can't anymore, sorry! Anyways, I got this idead from one of my favorite hSM stories called What are we going to do? ByNaleyluv4ever! I give her total props for one part… won't say it because then I'd tell you what I gave credit for… lol… so I'll stop blabbing and get on with the story…
The halls at East High were buzzing with excitement. The Summer Talent Show was coming up, and everyone that signed up, by everyone meaning almost the whole school, were talking about their acts whilst heading to their lockers,Whilst? What am I, a 100 year old?), and saying that they hoped that they would win. Meanwhile, Troy had some pictures in his hand of jewelry and wanted to ask Gabriella which one she would like the most, seeing that he had no taste in women's jewelry. He walked to Gabriella's locker to find her and Taylor whispering about their plans for that Talent Show. He covered her eyes with his hands and asked, "Guess who?" Gabriella turned around.
"The most wonderful boyfriend ever?" Gabriella asked.
"Aww, you shouldn't have…" Troy said giving her a hug. Taylor got the signal and walked hurriedly to Chad. Troy then pulled out the pictures that he printed out this morning.
"From a women's point of view, what do you think a girl would like the best?" Troy asked as he handed her the photos. There was a ring with an amethyst, a ring with a 7 karrot diamond, and a aquamarine ring with customizable engravings on the silver.
"This one," she said, holding up the aquamarine ring, "But why?" she then asked.
"Just because…" Troy said.
"Are you thinking of buying a pretty ring for your pretty girlfriend?"
"Maybe…"
"Troy!" Gabriella pouted.
"You'll find out soon enough," Troy said as the bell rang. They grabbed their stuff and headed out the doors.
"Walk me home?" Gabriella asked.
"Sorry Gabi, but I need to be somewhere, preparing for the Talent Show tomorrow…" Troy said, running toward his house, leaving a confused Gabriella behind…

Inside KB Jewelers…
"Can I help you?" a service man asked as Troy walked in.
"Yes, I'm looking for this ring," Troy said, showing him the photo.
"Okay, I'll bring it out right now…" the service man said walking off. Troy tapped the glass containers that held millions of rings, necklaces, charms, and other types of jewels. The man came back in with the very same ring. It looked more beautiful in person. He was sure that Gabriella would love it.
"What would you like engraved into the silver?"
"I would like you to engrave…" Troy began. He hadn't thought of that, how would he want to describe his love for Gabriella in two simple words. My love, no! Sweetheart? No, how about Yours forever? Yeah, that's it! Troy thought to himself.
"I would like you to engrave, 'Yours Forever' into it please." Troy said.
"This is an engagement ring, I hope you know."
"Yes, I know…" Troy said.
"Okay, it'll be ready in one hour."
"Thank you so very much sir!" Troy said running off. Part one of his plan was done, now he had to find the right song…

Back at Gabriella's
"Mom, I don't know why he just left, it was weird." Gabriella was on the phone.
"No I didn't do anything.."
"Yes mom, okay, love you. Bye!" and with that, she hung up.

East Highs Summer Talent Show.
Troy had convinced Ms. Darbus to let Gabriella on stage with him when he preformed, and that he'd be last. He told his and Gabriella's friends his plan. The girls said aww, while the guys said, awesome…
The Talent Show…
"Now, ladies and gentlemen, Gabriella Montez…" Ms. Darbus said as the audience clapped. Gabriella walked onto stage in front of a microphone. She heard the music and started to sing…
Head
under water Blank stares at blank pages I'm
not gonna write you a love song I
learned the hard way Convinced me to please you I'm not gonna write you a love song Promise me that you'll leave the light on I won't write you a love
song Is that why you wanted a love song If your
heart is nowhere in it
And they tell me to breathe easy for a while
The
breathing gets harder, even I know that
You made room for me but
it's too soon to see
If I'm happy in your hands
I'm unusually
hard to hold on to
No easy way
to say this
You mean well,
but you make this hard on me
'cause you asked for it
'cause
you need one, you see
I'm not gonna write you a love song
'cause
you tell me it's
Make or break in this
If you're on your
way
I'm not gonna write you to stay
If all you have is leaving
I'm gonna need a better
Reason to write you a love song today
That they all say things you want to hear
And
my heavy heart sinks deep down under you and
Your twisted
words,
Your help just hurts
You are not what I thought you
were
Hello to high and dry
Made
me think that I need this too
I'm trying to let you hear me as I
am
'cause you asked for
it
'cause you need one, you see
I'm not gonna write you a love
song
'cause you tell me it's
Make or break in this
If you're
on your way
I'm not gonna write you to stay
If all you have is
leaving I'm gonna need a better
Reason to write you a love song
today
To help me
see with daylight, my guide, gone
'cause I believe there's a way
you can love me
Because I say
'cause you asked for it
'cause you need one, you see
I'm
not gonna write you a love song
'cause you tell me it's make or
break in this
'cause you
asked for it
'cause you need one, you see
I'm not gonna write
you a love song
'cause you tell me it's make or break in this
If
you're on your way
I'm not gonna write you to stay
I don't want it for a minute
Babe, I'll
walk the seven seas when I believe that
There's a reason to
Write
you a love song today
Everyone clapped as Gabriella bowed. She thn exited the stage and Ms. Darbus came back on.
"This is our very last preformer, give it up for Troy Bolten!!!" she yelled as everyone clapped loudly. Troy got to th microphone and asked. "Could I have Gabriella Montez accompany me?" Gabriella was shocked and walked onto the stage nervously… was he expecting her to sing again. The music started playing a song Gabriella never heard of… Troy sang…
They
say it's a man's world That I'm your man A king ain't a king I'm your king Don't you know Lancelot had
Guinevere They say it takes two to
tango Just like Frankie
Avalon Tell me, that you're my
girl
Well, that cannot be denied
But what
good's a man's world
Without a woman by his side
And so I will
wait
Until that moment you decide
And
you're my girl
that I'm the sea
And you're the pearl
It
takes Two, baby,
It takes Two
Without
the power behind the throne
A prince is a pauper, babe,
Without
a chick to call his own
So please, darling, choose me
I don't
wanna rule alone
Tell me,
And you're my
queen
That no one else
Can come between
It Takes Two,
baby,
It Takes Two
Mrs. Claus has old St. Nick
Romeo had Juliet
And
Liz, well, she has her dick
Well, taht tango's child's play
So take me to the dance
floor
And we'll twist the night away
Has his favorite Mouseketeer
I dream of a lover,
baby,
Oh and whisper in my ear
And I'm your boy
That you're my pride
And I'm your
joy
That I'm the sand
And you're the tide
And I'll be the
groom
If you'll be y bride
It Takes Two, baby,
It
Takes Two
It Takes Two, baby,
It Takes Two.
Every single girl was crying in the audience.
"Gabriella, I love you so muchh, and I want to spend the rest of my life with you. I know we are only 19, but I desperatley need to ask this. Gabriella, will you marry me?" Troy said. Gabriella cried and the audience was silent.
"Yes…" Gabriella said quietly as the crowd roared. They took hands and bowed, hen Troy put the ring on her finger. So much for a surprise, eh?
