To Kiss Or Not To Kiss

Chapter 3: More Bad News?

The next day Gabriella goes straight to her locker without talking to anyone, at all, not even Troy. Then she goes directly to homeroom where Troy, Chad, Taylor, Sharpay, Ryan, Kelsie, Zeke, and Jason were talking. Gabriella ignores them and sits at her regular seat at the very back of the classroom. Troy notices that something's bothering Gabriella so he approaches her.

"Is something wrong?" Asked Troy.

"We need to talk."

Troy assumes that Gabriella wants to cancel their date since she said, "We need to talk." But you can never tell from Gabriella. "Okay."

Gabriella sighs. She looked Troy directly in the eye so he could see that she was not joking around. "Troy… I'm-" but was interrupted when the bell rang and Ms. Darbus came into the room and everybody took their seats.

Ms. Darbus started with her usual outbursts. "Good morning everyone! Just a few quick announcements: Our winter musicale was a big success thanks to our wonderful actors, understudies and especially our composer…" Ms. Darbus looks at Troy, Gabriella, Ryan, Sharpay, and Kelsie. "…So now we will have a spring musicale. It's going to be called 'Soul Mate'. I hope that our previous actors and understudies will audition once again for this season's musicale." Ms. Darbus winks at Troy, Gabriella, Sharpay, and Ryan. Of course Sharpay is already excited about it. She's already warming up (she's whinnying like a horse). Ryan is also preparing by loosening up. Troy looks at Gabriella for signs of approval but all he got was a bowed head. Something is definitely up. Troy thought.

"Also congratulations to all our basketball athletes for winning the championship game. And congratulations also to our Scholastic Decathlon team for winning! With that said, I hope that all of you will consider auditioning for our upcoming musicale." Ms. Darbus finishes up. And then the bell rings and everybody leaves homeroom. Troy catches up to Gabriella.

"So what were you telling me?"

"Troy… I don't know how you're gonna take this but I'm-" Just then Sharpay, Ryan, Taylor, Chad, Kelsie, Jason, and Zeke comes up to them.

"So Gabriella, are you going to audition for the musical? I just wanted to ask so I would know who my competitors were." Sharpay said. Since the winter musical, Sharpay and Ryan had been friends with everyone else.

"I don't know yet, I'll think about it."

"I'll take that as a 'yes'."

"What about you Troy? Are you going to audition?" Asked Ryan.

"Probably. I'm still not sure." Troy was eyeing Gabriella.

"Kelsie, are you composing for the spring musical?" Zeke asked.

"I'll try to get my compositions in. If Ms. Darbus likes it then I guess I will."

Chad finally said, "You guys have definitely changed my mind about these musical things. So I might actually try to audition. Just for the supporting roles though. I don't want everything to be centered on me."

"That is how you act all the time. Like everything's about you." Jason said jokingly.

"I'm going to audition too! Just to see how it works out." Taylor says.

"Guys I have to tell you something important at lunch." Gabriella says.

"Is it about the musical?" Ryan asked.

"Is it about me" Sharpay asks.

"Is it about a new formula for that problem we were working out?" Taylor asks.

"Is it a new recipe for cookies?" asked Zeke.

"Is it about a new song title?" that was Kelsie's question.

"Is it about our date?" was Troy's question.

"Is it about-" an impatient Gabriella interrupted Jason.

"Guys! It's not about anything you guys said. What Troy said might be part of it but it's not completely about it."

Troy said, "I have something important to tell you guys too."

Just then the bell rang. Everybody said their "goodbyes" and "see you laters" then went to their different classes. Troy couldn't help thinking, I wonder what Gabriella meant by saying what I said may be part of what she's gonna say? Is she really gonna cancel our date? What did I do? Suddenly, Troy felt something nudge his arm. Chad was tapping him because the teacher called on him but he wasn't paying attention.

"Mr. Bolton?"

"Um…"

"Yes?"

"3.14159?"

"Actually the numbers that we use are 3.14 but you are correct Mr. Bolton. That is part of the value of pi."

I'm right? That was a lucky guess! Chad was looking at him completely shocked that Troy got the question right. Especially in math. He hates math.

The next few hours flew by quickly since all the gang could think about is what Gabriella and Troy are gonna say. Sharpay thought, Maybe they kissed! They make such a cute couple! But what I don't get is how a basketball superstar and a girl genius got together in the first place. Just goes to show you, Cupid makes weird pairings. And then the next thing they knew, it was lunch.

They all sat together in one table. Sharpay's table on the balcony of the cafeteria. They didn't want to sit there but Sharpay insists. And they didn't want to know the consequences if they turned her down. So everybody sat at the table. But nobody talked. Kelsie was the brave one who broke the ice.

"So, Gabriella. What did you want to tell us?"

Gabriella sighed and said, "I don't know how you guys are gonna take it but… I'm… moving."

Everybody at the table shouted, "WHAT!" Which made everybody in the cafeteria quiet and look at them. Sharpay stood up and went to the edge of the balcony. "There's nothing to see. Go back to your lunches" When nobody obeyed her, she gave each table one of her famous glares and said, "Or else." So everybody got the point and went back to their lunches and started talking again. Sharpay got back to the table.

"Gabriella, why are you moving?" Taylor asked.

"My mom said that it's for us. She really didn't give me a reason."

Ryan asked, "Where are you moving to?"

"New Jersey."

"NEW JERSEY!" Everybody shouted. Again everyone in the cafeteria looked at them in silence but when they saw Sharpay getting up, they went back to their lunches. Sharpay smiled.

Chad said, "You're moving all the way across the country? I can't believe this!"

And then Jason asked, "When are you moving?"

"This Friday." When Gabriella said this, she saw Troy hang his head.

"I'll bake you cookies, pies, scones, you name it. Just please tell us you're joking!" Zeke begged.

"I'm sorry, guys."

"I have some bad news too." Troy suddenly said.

"More on top of this?" was Sharpay's question.

"I'm moving too."

"WHAT!" They all said again. But this time, the people in the cafeteria dared not to look at them anymore.

"You too?" asked Kelsie.

"Well, my dad said that we're moving because he got a better job. I don't know when or where we're moving to but I'm sure it's not gonna be better than here."

Nobody said anything after that. They all ate in silence. Gabriella began to cry. Taylor pats her on the back. Ryan was looking at his hands, looking depressed. Sharpay was looking at her nails. Kelsie looked at Troy and Gabriella's audition sheet. Jason has his face in his hands. Zeke took out the cookies that he was gonna share with the gang, but instead, he was eating them all. Chad was looking at his basketball. And finally, Troy looked at Gabriella, and tears fell down his face.
