Thanks for all the reviews! I love 'em so read and review!
It was Friday and there were no classes for Troy. He slept in until about 11:00 but then he got up. He took a nice long shower. He then sat on his bed and started looking over some papers for school. Suddenly, his cell phone started ringing. He checked the caller ID. It was Chad.
"Hey, man." Troy answered.
"Hey. Have you checked your mail yet?" Chad asked.
"No. I slept in. I was tired last night."
"Well, you should. Me and Tiffany are going out tonight, so I can't do anything." Chad said.
"You and Tiffany always do something every night. So it doesn't make a difference to me." Troy laughed.
"Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, I got to go. Tiffany's yelling at me again."
"Sure, dude. Bye." They hung up. Troy thought about it and decided to check his mail.
Inbox: (1) New Message
You know, it could be one of his friends sending him an e-mail. He clicked on the inbox button.
E-Match: Your New Match! Sent at 9:54.
Troy suddenly became really excited to see. He quickly clicked on the button to see who his new match was. He couldn't wait. Maybe Chad was right. This match and him could be destined. He was almost jumping to see.
Dear Troy,
We have matched you with another person. Scroll down here to see. There e-mail is posted under the description.

Troy read the description over and over again. Could this girl really be for him? She sounded perfect. Troy thought to himself. He's funny, smart, and talented.
Gabriella woke up. She went into the bathroom and looked in the mirror. Her eyes were puffy and her makeup was streaming down her face. She put her head in her hands. She started to cry. She didn't love Jerry. Jerry was just some guy. She still couldn't believe he broke up with her. She felt so stupid. Were his signs oblivious? Obviously not to her. She sat down at her desk. She checked her mail before she flooded the computer.

She barely cared. She just checked her mail. It was from that dating website. Yay! They found a match for her. She just wanted to call Jerry and straiten things out. But maybe this guy that she's meeting will be just as special, maybe even more. Would if this button changes her life. Would if she would get married to him. Maybe have kids? What was she thinking? She doesn't even know the color of his hair.

tb1018: Hey. I'm Troy. Are you there?
Gabriella couldn't believe it was him. The guy she got matched with. She might as well talk to him. She decided to use the name Gabrielle. It wouldn't be that big of a deal if they got serious since you would just have to add an a at the end instead of an e.
gabi88: Um, hi. I'm Gabrielle.
tb1018: Hi. How are you?
gabi88: Pretty good. I guess we got matched up, huh?
tb1018: Yeah. So, where do you go to college?
gabi88: I go to a local college in Albuquerque. (A/N: I don't know how to spell it!) What about you?
tb1018: I go to the University of New Mexico. What are you studying over at your college?
gabi88: To be a science and math teacher. I'm really into that stuff. What's your major?
tb1018: Business. I'm not really sure what I want to do just yet, but my parents make me go, so I had to choose something. I'm really into basketball, though. So I'm on the team.
gabi88: That's really cool. So you're into singing too?
tb1018: Yeah. It's something I never thought I would do, but I love it.
gabi88: Why is it under your hidden talent?
tb1018: Cuz, it's my friends that don't know too much about it. They support me with whatever I do though, so...
gabi88: I'm into it too. I actually starred in my school's winter musical!
tb1018: Really? So did I.
gabi88: That's a coincidence. So were you born here?
tb1018: Yeah. I like Albuquerque. Were you born here, too?
gabi88: I was born in California. We moved here when I was 17 and I've lived here ever since.
tb1018: That's really cool.
Just then, Rachael walked in the door. "Hey Gabriella! What are you doing?"
"Uh, nothing!" She quickly typed.
gabi88: Troy, I have to go. It was really nice meeting you. We'll talk later. Bye.
tb1018:Okay, bye. I'll e-mail you later.
GABI88 HAS SIGNED OFF.
"What were you doing online?" Rachael asked.
"Okay, fine. I met someone. But it's nothing serious. I just met him today. His name's Troy. He seems really nice."
"Well, you seem like you've gotten over Jerry pretty quick." Rachael was folding her laundry.
"No. I'm still heartbroken and depressed, but talking to someone maybe would help me get over it." Gabriella smiled, thinking of how Troy might be.
Over the next few days, Troy and "Gabrielle" chatted about school, there future, and themselves. It was a regular day and Gabriella was talking to Troy.
tb1018: So are you in any sort of relationship?
gabi88: I just ended one. It's been really hard.
tb1018: I'm sorry. It's hard getting over someone... like I would know.
gabi88: Why? Have you been in a serious relationship? Are you in one now?
tb1018: No, well I have but I'm not at the moment. I haven't had a girlfriend in a while.
gabi88: I'm sorry too. I know it's hard being lonely. It's hard to imagine him not by my side anymore, you know?
tb1018: Yeah, but I've got my buddies. But I know how you feel.
gabi88: Uh, well I have to go study for my exams but I'll definitely talk to you soon.
tb1018: Sure. But can I ask you a kind of personal question?
gabi88: Go for it.
tb1018: Well, have you ever been in love?
gabi88: Why do you want to know?
tb1018: I'm curious.
gabi88: I have to go...
tb1018: Please, just tell me.
gabi88: Well...
tb1018: Yeah? C'mon, Gabrielle.
gabi88: Once. In high school.
GABI88 HAS SIGNED OFF.
Thanks! Hope you liked it! Please review!
