Thanks! Here's Chapter 2!

Gabriella left her house at about noon to meet Taylor and Sharpay at the mall. Her mom gave her a ride, since she didn't have a car.

"Here we are." Ms. Montez said as she pulled up in the front entrance.

"Thanks. Bye mom. I'll call you." Gabriella got out of the car, hoping to spot Taylor or Sharpay.

"Gabriella! Over Here!" She saw Taylor waving at her by the Book Store.

Gabriella walked up to them.

"Hey." She said.

"Alright, we've got 22 stores to tackle in less then 3 hours. So I suggest we start." Sharpay said quickly. Taylor nodded.

"What, are you kidding me?" Gabriella asked.

"Oh, just come on!" Taylor and Sharpay pulled her arm.

"Oh man! You so could have made that basket!" Chad scolded Troy, as they were practicing their free throws.

"Are you distracted or something?"

"Uh, no. Look, are we going to take one or two cars to the concert." Troy asked, panting.

"My dad's SUV can hold up to 6 people. So we can take one." Chad said.

Troy took a drink of water out of his water bottle.

"I better go shower and pick something out." Troy said.

"Yeah, I got to go too. Pick you up at 7:30." Chad said, walking out of Troy's backyard where they shoot hoops.

Troy ran upstairs, and took a long shower. He was thinking. Maybe this concert will be chance to get a little closer to Gabriella, he thought. He wasn't going to make any moves though. He didn't know what Gabriella thought about him though. Would if she liked him as just a friend. He got out of the shower and put on some sweats until he got changed for the concert.

Taylor and Sharpay were picking out a bunch of outfits for Gabriella to try on. After they grabbed a bite to eat at the food court they took a break at a bench.

"This is exhausting." Taylor let out a breath. "I think I'm going to go to the bathroom. I'll be right back." Taylor got up and went into the women's room.

"This is fun. Just a girls' day out." Gabriella said to Sharpay.

"Yeah it is. Gabriella, can I ask you something?" Sharpay muttered.

"Uh sure." Gabriella answered.

"Well, I'm asking you because you know Troy the most and because you guys are just friends." Sharpay said.

"Where are you going with this?" Gabriella asked.

"Well, I have a crush on Troy and I was wondering if you could maybe, I don't know, like get us together or something." Sharpay asked.

"Uh, wow. This is surprising. Sure I'll try to hook you guys up. But wait, we all thought you liked Zeke. I mean he has a crush on you." Gabriella said.

Sharpay started laughing. "Are you serious?" She asked. "You thought I liked Zeke? That's hilarious!" She said, still laughing. Gabriella nodded.

"So you don't like Zeke? The way you guys look at each other and laugh together, I don't know, we just thought you guys liked each other, but were too shy to admit it." Gabriella said.

"Well I did, a little after the musical, but he's actually pretty boring. I mean, all he does is cook. I want to have a good time. I know Troy would like that." Sharpay said.

"Uh yeah, sure, I'll try." Gabriella told her. Taylor came out of the bathroom.

"Don't tell Taylor." Sharpay whispered to Gabriella as they were getting up.

After they were done shopping, they had great outfits picked out and they couldn't wait. There was only a half an hour left before Chad and Troy picked them up, to get their makeup done.

Chad got in the front seat of the SUV and Troy got in the passengers seat and Ryan was in the back. They were on their way to pick up the girls. When they pulled up, Troy was the one that went up to ring the doorbell. Gabriella answered. After all, it was her house.

"Hey Troy." Gabriella said.

"Hey. You guys ready?" He said.

"Yeah." She said and the four of them left Gabriella's house.

Troy decided to let Taylor have the passenger seat up front so she could be by Chad and so that Troy could sit by Gabriella in the back. Taylor hopped in the front seat, and then Troy sat in the middle row, hoping that Gabriella would sit next to him. Gabriella remembered what Sharpay had said to her about getting them together, so she passed the seat next to Troy and sat by Ryan. Then Sharpay got in and sat by Troy.

'Oh man. Why did she pass me? I mean, Sharpay's cool but I wanted to sit by Gabriella', Troy thought to himself.

"I'm really excited. What about you, Troy?" Sharpay asked.

"Yeah, it should be a lot of fun." Troy said.

When they got to the Concert, they got in, and found their seats. First Ryan went to the last seat, then Chad and Taylor, then Troy, then Gabriella, and at the end was Sharpay.

The opening act came on, and people were starting to get into it.

"I'm so glad we came!" Taylor shouted, loud enough so they could hear her.

"Yeah, this is fun!" Troy said.

"I'll be right back, I'm going to get something to drink." Gabriella said to Troy as she got up, and made her way to the concession stand. Sharpay scooted next to Troy. They started talking about how they can't wait for some of their favorite bands to come on and play.

"Hey, um, excuse me?" A guy with shaggy blonde hair came up to them.

"Yeah?" Troy asked him.

"I have 7 tickets for the mosh pit and my friends and I have to leave, for some personal business, but um anyway, do you guys want them?" He asked.

Troy looked at his friends. They looked like they wanted them.

"Yeah, sure." Troy said.

"Okay here." The guy handed them the tickets. "Let me show you guys where we are." They all followed him. When Gabriella came back, she couldn't find her friends.

"Oh no." She said to herself. She looked right of her, left of her, behind, and front but couldn't find them. Were they planning on leaving me? Was this set up? All these thoughts came to her really fast. She turned around and went out to the halls, to look for them.

When Troy, Chad, Sharpay, Taylor, Zeke, and Ryan got to the crowded area, Troy realized that they hadn't even told Gabriella. "Oh no." He said to himself.

"What?" Taylor heard him.

"We didn't even tell Gabriella that we moved." He said.

"Oh no! This is not good!" Taylor cried. She told Chad. Troy was looking around everywhere. He was so worried. What if something happened to her? He wasn't there with her. He was just thinking of all the terrible things that could happen to her.

Suddenly he spotted her bright pink shirt and dark, curly, long hair.

"Gabriella!" He called up to her. She turned around. She started running to him.

"Troy!" She called. She ran up to him. "I thought you guys just left me!" She cried.

"Some guy offered us better tickets but we forgot that you left until we were down here.

He hugged her. "I was so worried." He said.

After the concert, Chad dropped Taylor off first, then Ryan and Sharpay, then Zeke.

He pulled up to Gabriella's house. She got out and then Troy got out after her.

They walked up to her front door.

"I just want to say that I'm so sorry about leaving you." He said softly.

"I know you didn't mean to. I just got really scared. I mean, I didn't have my cell phone with me." She said.

"I'm sorry." He said. "Well I've got to get back to Chad." He pointed to the car.

Chad honked the horn.

"Bye." He waved. "Maybe, you can come over tomorrow." He said as he was walking away.

"Yeah!" She said. "That'll be fun. Bye!" She went inside her house. She shut the door behind her. It would be another chance to get to know him more and then tell Sharpay.

Please read and review! I'd really appreciate a lot of reviews! I hope you all enjoyed it! Thanks!
