A/N I lied! Here's Chapter 7, and Chapter 8 might be actually posted later on tonight. I got spur of the moment ideas.

Gabriella cursed when she heard footsteps walking around in her house downstairs. She rolled over and groaned, remembering what had happened just a few hours ago. It was perfect, but she couldn't shake that shameful feeling. Gabriella got up from her bed, and walked down to the living room, noting that it was 12:00pm.

" Doofus!" Gabriella called with excitement as a huge golden retriever ran to her. Gabriella looked up and smiled as her surprise visitor, Brad Demo, the drum player of The End, and Chris's best friend.

" You got quite the hook up here" Brad looked around the house.

" Yeah, 6 months breaks deserve to live in style and now that I have Doofus, it's complete" Gabriella bent down and patted Doofus, and smiled. Doofus was Chris's dog, and than became Gabriella's dog in the process.

The two old friends settled down for a late breakfast and talked for what it seemed hours, Brad was Chris's best friend and had become a good friend to Gabriella. They had exchanged phone calls and emails lately. After Brad had left, Gabriella and Doofus went out for a walk, as she approached Troy's house, she looked over and was horrified to see Sharpay's solid pink Beetle in the driveway. Gabriella who had thought about visiting Troy, had changed her mind and walked home.

" I told you, to get out of here, I have nothing to say to you" Troy yelled, he was furious, especially since earlier in the morning, he sent Sharpay away and now she was back.

" But, Troy I miss you!" Sharpay cried, attempting to hug Troy but he moved away from her.

" I don't miss you Sharpay, I'm very content with you being out of my life" Troy reasoned with her.

" That thing with Zeke was nothing, I promise, if you take me back, we can heal this" Sharpay was pleading,begging and was almost on her knees. Tony bit his lip from snickering, this was pretty funny.

" No, really, Sharpay, it's over, our relationship had died quite a long time ago and we were to afraid to say goodbye. I'm tired of it, I'm ready to move on" Troy said, the words hit Sharpay hard, as she started to cry but she ran out of the house. Troy sighed and sat down on the couch to reflect on what was going on. It seemed that life was being put into place, roughly. Gabriella was slowly coming back into his life, in the place he wanted. Troy groaned, how do you exactly pursue a widow without looking like a jack ass?

Gabriella spent a couple of weeks avoiding everyone but Kelsi, she was settling into her new home, working on some new music and getting used to having Doofus around. Gabriella had heard from Kelsi about how Sharpay had thrown herself at Troy, attempting to get the two back together but Troy won't hear anything about it. Gabriella was sorta happy about it but couldn't because Gabriella almost felt like it was a sign, getting Doofus and seeing Sharpay's pink Beetle.
