Abut 30 minutes later, the gang had appeared at Troy's house. Taylor phoned Gabriella, who was delighted to be able to come. Troy was happy that she'd been able to make it. It would really be like a proper reunion now. Once Troy had got food and drinks for everyone, and everyone was settled, Chad put the DVD on. Everyone stopped taling, and were staring at the screen. It read:
East High Graduates Of 2008
It started with everyone walking into the school, for a meal before graduating. Everyone were talking in their little groups, and the camera panned over to the gang. The girls all exchanged compliments to eachother, saying how nice each of them looked in their clothes. Taylor was wearing a yellow dress, with the straps crossing over on her back. Gabriella was wearing a white dress, and Troy's eyes widened once he saw her. She looked gorgeous, and he remembered her wearing that dress that day. Kelsi was wearing an orangey colored dress, which was a halterneck. The gang complimented her. She'd looked so different on that day to what she usually did at school. And Sharpay, being the perfectionist she was in high school, had to have the most gorgeous and expensive dress. She was wearing a pink dress. She smiled at how nice she looked. She was still the same old Sharpay, but just not as worse as she was in high school. She'd had the gang to thank for that.
The sound had been removed so you couldn't hear what people were saying in the corridor. But the gang all knew what they were talking about. That they'd never lose touch, and they'd be friends no matter what. Of course that hadn't happened with some of them, but they were now back together, like old times. Soon, the meal started, and the camera was panning round the tables, and stopped at where the gang were sitting. Sharpay was moaning because she didn't like the food. Ryan had his face in his hands, embarrased by his sister, and the rest of the gang was laughing at them both. The camera soon panned round the tables again, stopping occasionally at other tables for a few minutes.
Gabriella laughed while watching that bit, and was glad that Sharpay had changed at least a little bit. She wasn't as stuck-up now, and she wasn't as fussy. Whenever Gabriella goes out with Sharpay, she's always making her try every little thing, and Sharpay's always amazed at what foods she likes.
Soon enough, it was time for graduation. The camera had been placed at the side of the students sitting down, and the class's spokesperson walked up to the stand..Gabriella. The gang's eyes were glued to the screen again, wanting to hear what Gabriella had said. Gabriella never liked watching herself on videos, and she had her face buried in her hands for most of it. But even so, the gang was listening intently.
'Good afternoon.' She'd said. 'I've been lucky enough to be chosen to speak for this class. I'm quite surprised, actually. I've only been here for 2 years, but I'm glad I was chosen. I'm quite nervous really. I've never done this sort of thing before, but I suppose I'll have to give it a go.' There were a few laughs amongst the students. 'Well, when I first came to this school, I was scared. I knew no one here, except that one special person.' Her eyes darted to Troy. While watching this, Troy smiled at her, with her hands over her face. 'And over these years here, I've made some amazing friends. Now I don't know what I would have done without you all. You all made me the person I am today. I'm amazed at what I've been able to achieve being here. I was a lead in many school musicals, and I've won lots of trophies from the scholastic decathalons. I'ts amazing. I'm glad of what each and everyone of you people out here today has achieved. We all broke out of our cliques, and now we're all friends with everyone. It's great, and I love to think that I was a part of that happening. Even if it did cause a few bits of trouble.' There were a few more laughs aswell, mostly between the gang. 'Hmm..Well I just want to wish you all luck in the future, on whatever you all wish to do.' With that, she walked off stage and sat in her seat.
The names were being called one by one, in alphabetical order. First it was Zeke. He walked up to the stage, and took his doploma. Next out of the gang was Troy. He walked up, and shook Principal Matsui's hand, while taking his diploma. He then smiled at his dad, who was sitting at the front, and walked off the stage. Afte Troy, it was Jason. He did the same, and walked off. Once Chad, Ryan, Sharpay, Taylor, Gabriella and Kelsi had got their diplomas, there were a few more people going up. Once everyone had gone up, they were all talking in their little groups again. It was now time for the signing. While watching this, the gang remembered what they'd put in eachother's yearbooks. By this time, the girls were crying. Even though they were with eachother now, they missed their days at East High.
Lastly, it was time for the dance. Everyone had taken their robes off, and were in the school's hall, dancing ot the music. Everyone was having fun, and laughing. At this time, Sharpay had stood up and was dancing along to the music, as if she was still at that dance. everyone was laughing at her, but eventually they all stood up and were dancing with her. Like old times.
Eventually, the video stopped, and the gang were all smiling at how much fun they'd had. It was now 4pm, and everyone had to go home, so they all said their goodbyes and walked out of the door. Gabriella hung back for a bit, to say an extra long bye to Troy. She'd promised she'd call him in the morning. Troy smiled as he watched her walk out of his door.
A/N: So that's that. Hope you liked it. Review please.
