Thanks for the reviews! Please keep reviewing! I love it so much!
The next day, Troy called Gabriella. I rang a few times.
"Hello?" Ms. Montez answered.
"Um, hi, Ms. Montez. Is Gabriella there?" Troy asked nervously.
"Oh yeah Troy. Hang on a minute." He could hear her call Gabriella in the back round.
"Hey, Troy." She answered.
"Hey, so um you want to come over today?" He asked.
"Yeah sure, that'll be fun!" She replied.
"Cool. So you can come over in like a half an hour if you want." He asked.
"Sounds good. See you soon! Bye." They hung up the phone.
Quickly, Troy hung up the phone and got ready. He wanted it to be perfect. He knew that Gabriella and him were just friends because that's what she wanted. He wouldn't even know how to admit his feelings to her. Suddenly his cell phone rang. It was Chad.
"Hey." Troy said making sure his hair was perfect for when Gabriella came over.
"Hey, so has Gabriella come over yet?" Chad asked. Chad knew that Troy liked her because they talk. Chad could tell sometimes when he looks at her. He could also tell that Troy envy's the relationship that Chad has with Taylor.
"No, she's on her way and I told you I'm not going to do anything. We're just friends." Troy said for the tenth time to him. "I never should have told you. You're always teasing me about it!" Troy laughed.
"Okay dude. Sorry, I'll stop!" He joked.
"Oh man! She's here. I got to go!" Troy hung up the phone as he saw Gabriella walk up to his house from his bedroom window. He ran down the stairs just in time to answer the door.
When he opened it, she was just about to ring the doorbell.
"Oh hey." She said startled.
"Hi. Come on in." He motioned for her to come in his house.
"Thanks." She said and stepped in front of him.
They went up to his bedroom.
"So what do you want to do today?" Troy asked.
"I don't know. Maybe we could go bowling or something. I hear you can get two games for the price of one on Sundays." She suggested
"Hey, that's not a bad idea. Let's go!" They got up and headed to Skylane Bowling Alley.
When they got there, Troy paid and they got their bowling shoes on. It was kind of awkward because they didn't know what to talk about.
"So..." He said still tying his shoes.
"Uh, I'm going to go get something to drink at the concession stand." Gabriella got up and walked over. Troy decided to call Chad and ask him what he should say.
"Hello?" Chad asked.
"Hey, it's me. Um, I have no clue what to say to her!" He whispered, so she wouldn't hear.
"Well are you trying to be friendly or romantic?" Chad asked.
"What do you think? Of course just friends but I can't think of anything to say but that she looks nice and I think she's getting pretty sick of it." Troy quickly said.
"Okay um..." Chad didn't know what to tell him. "Well just talk about school and stuff. I don't know. You're on your own. Besides you guys are always together, why is it so weird?" Chad asked.
"I don't know. Maybe because were alone." Troy said. He saw Gabriella walk over.
"Uh dude. She's coming. I got to go. Bye." He hung up and put his phone in his pocket.
"So your back." He said.
"Yeah." She set down her drink.
"I'll be right back I have to get my bowling ball over there." He got up to pick out a ball.
"Hey. Excuse me?" The man at the concession stand asked him. Gabriella walked over to him to pick one out too.
"Yeah?" Troy asked.
"Your girlfriend left her change here." The man was holding out his hand with some quarters in it. Troy was almost not going to correct him. But then he realized that Gabriella was right there.
"Uh, she's not my girlfriend. We're just friends." Troy corrected him.
"Yeah, whatever. Give her the change hat she left." He said still handing out the change in his hand.
"Right." Troy got the change and gave it back to Gabriella.
"Thanks. I didn't know I left it." She said.
"Troy, you're up first! This is going to be hilarious!" She was laughing.
"Haha, very funny." He said picking up his bowling ball. Surprisingly he bowled a strike.
"Wow! I had no idea you were that good!" She said getting up.
"I didn't know either!" He laughed.
Gabriella hit 3 pins on her turn. "Oh well. I guess I'm not as good as you!"
"I could help you." He suggested.
"Okay." She got up and took her ball in her hands. Troy cam behind her, and wrapped his arms around her so he was like directing what she should do.
"Okay first, you want to swing back." He brought her hands behind, ball in hand.
"Then you swing it. But do it in a strait direction." They both let go of the bowling ball. It went down the lane directly in front of the middle pin. Strike!
"Yeah!" They both yelled.
"Troy, thank you so much!" Gabriella exclaimed. She was having a better time then she ht. They were laughing and having a great time, that they almost lost track of time.
Suddenly, Troy's cell phone rang.
"Hello?" Troy answered.
"Troy? Where are you?" His dad asked.
"I'm at the bowling alley with Gabriella." Troy said.
"It's already 4:30. You're supposed to be here practicing!" His dad scolded him.
"I'm sorry, we lost track of time. I'll be there as soon as I can. Bye." Troy hung up his phone.
"Was that your dad?" Gabriella asked.
"Yeah. He's mad that I'm late." Troy said as he was getting on his regular shoes. "I can still walk you home though."
"Really? Are you sure?" She asked.
"Yeah. It's no problem."
"I had a lot of fun today." Troy said. They were about a block away from Gabriella's house. He knew his dad was going to be mad and yell at him but this day was worth it.
"Yeah me too." She smiled at him. She noticed something in his eyes. They were so sweet. She felt something. Not a friend thing but something else. Something she's never before. Suddenly her phone rang.
"Ought!" She reached in her purse and answered it.
"Hello?" Gabriella answered. She held up her index finger, indicating that she would be a minute.
"Hey Gabriella! So how's it coming?" Sharpe asked.
"How's what coming?" Gabriella was confused.
"You know, hooking me up with Troy?" Sharpe said.
"Oh yeah..." She totally forgot. "I'm hanging out with him right now." Gabriella said.
"Oh, sorry to interrupt, Cupid! I'll let you continue your work!" Sharpe giggled then hung up. Gabriella closed her phone and put it back in her purse.
Troy and Gabriella both laughed.
"Well, I'll see you tomorrow at school." Troy said. He waved and walked down her steps, running to get home as soon as he could. Gabriella watched him until he disappeared.
She totally forgot that the point of going out with Troy was for Sharpay. She didn't want to be working every time she was with Troy. She felt something today with him. It was a different feeling then ever before. When she got back to her room, she called Sharpay.
"Hello?" Sharpay answered.
"Hey, it's me." Gabriella responded.
"So does he like me yet? What have you done? What did you say?" Sharpay kept asking.
"Well, he's uh..." She didn't know what to say. Gabriella didn't even know if she herself had feelings for him. "... Getting there."
"Great, so see you at school tomorrow!" Shapay exclaimed.
They hung up the phone. Gabriella didn't know what to do.
