Thanks you all for all of the reviews! So, here is the date!
Right
He saw her. "You don't look like a freaky science/math girl."
"No. Maybe I should go"
"No. Chad and Taylor went through so much trouble."
"Yeah, I guess. After all those days of Taylor trying to set me up and I denied I guess we can make the most of it."
Troy nodded.
They each ordered food. They ate in silence with an occasional small talk.
"So, what have you been up to?" Troy asked.
"Well, I'm a scientist and I can't tell you what we're experimenting on because it's confidential," Gabriella replied.
"So it's like those, 'I would tell you, but I would have to kill you' situations."
"Yeah. What about you?"
"Well, I play basketball for the San Antonio Spurs. Season is over, but the guys and me get together from time to time and practice. You know, to keep in shape and make sure no on is slacking off."
"That's cool."
Then they heard a person in the background say, "Tonight's couple karaoke night! Who will be the lucky couple tonight?"
The spotlight showed up at their table.
"I'm sorry. I can't. I haven't sung in years. I'm-I'm not going to be in tune…" Gabriella said nervously.
'Uh-yeah. Me too."
"Well, why not start now then."
They grabbed them and pushed them on stage.
"You know, some day you'll thank me for this. Or not." the person said getting off the stage.
She smiled. That was so déjà vu-ish.
"They are going to sing an old song that was a hit ten years ago. Start of Something New."
She looked at Troy.
"At least we know the song." Troy said.
She nodded.
Troy: Livin' in my own world. Didn't understand. That anything can happen. When you take a chance.
Gabriella: I never believed in. What I couldn't see. I never my heart. To all the possibilities.
She was surprised at how her voice sounded. It sounded… Good.
Both: I know…
Gabriella: That something has changed.
Both: Never felt this way.
Gabriella: And right here tonight.
Both: This could be the… Start of something new.
Gabriella: It feels so right.
Both: To be here with you… oh. And now… lookin' in your eyes. I feel in my heart. The start of something new.
She looked into his eyes and it all came back. She got into the song more and more.
Troy: Now who'd ever thought that
Both: We'd both be here tonight… yeah
Gabriella: The world looks so much brighter.
Both: With you by my side. I know… that something has changed. Never felt this way. I know it's for real. This could be the… Start of something new. It feels so right to be here with you… oh. And now… lookin' in your eyes. I feel in my heart. The start of something new.
Troy: I never knew that it could happen. Till it happened to me.
Both: I didn't know it before but now it's easy to see. It's the start of something new. It feels so right to be here with you… oh. And how… lookin' in your eyes. I feel in my heart. The start of something new. It's the start of something new. It feels so right to be here with you… oh. And how… looking'' in your eyes. I feel in my heart. The start of something new…
They ended looking in each other's eyes. The audience applauded.
"More! More!" they yelled.
"Now that wasn't so bad was it? They want an encore. Would you guys sing again?"
Gabriella looked at Troy and he was nodding.
"Okay," she said, "but we get to pick the song this time."
After they sang, they got the bill and left. Troy took her home.
She was glowing.
"Um, I had a good time," Gabriella said awkwardly.
"Yeah, me too," Troy said warmly.
Gabriella felt better. "Well, um, I guess I will see you later. My number is still the same."
"Okay, mine is still the same too."
She kissed his cheek and went inside her house.
Troy stood there and put his hand on the spot where Gabriella kissed him. Maybe Chad was right…
So, what'd you think? Please review!
