A/N: Hi! I'm back! Here's the next chapter!


The gang stared coldly at Troy, until Kelsi finally broke the silence, and said, voice rising throughout, "Listen Troy, Gabriella was desperate for you to be there last night. You betrayed her trust, and, to be perfectly honest, you made her feel totally worthless. She was so excited that she would finally be able to share such a huge portion of her life with us. It was going to be one of the best days of her life, but you had to go and ruin it, didn't you." And with that she stalked off.

As the gang walked off behind her, Troy, in a last ditch attempt to reassure himself that what he did wasn't as bad as Gabriella and Kelsi were saying it was, asked, "Come on guys. Surely it wasn't that big of a deal, was it?" to which the replied simply, "Yes."

Troy decided that he should try to talk to Gabriella, and try and get back into her good books, so he went to the library, and sure enough, there she was. However, Troy stopped dead in his tracks when he heard her talking to Kelsi:

Gabriella/Kelsi

What should I do now Kelsi? I mean, I can't tell him the truth; it hurts too much to relive it.

I know. Maybe you should tell him who Anita really is.

What? I should just walk up to him and go, "Hey Troy, guess what? The girl you went to that stupid concert with bullied me when I was eight, forced me to keep a huge chunk of my life hidden from the world, oh, and just to top it off, she threw the necklace that linked me to my dad into a lake, where it probably still remains now"? I don't think so.

I don't know then Gabriella, but I think he should know the truth.

And with that, Kelsi left, leaving Troy standing there shocked, for two reasons. Firstly, because he didn't realise that Anita was such a bully, and secondly, because he knew where the necklace is now.

And it wasn't at the bottom of a lake.


A/N: I'm really sorry, and I know that this is a really short chapter, but I just needed to put this in so that the story could move forward. Please review as it makes me more inclined to update.
