Authors Note: Ah, I love you guys. Thanks for all of the good reviews. Sorry it took a bitlonger than expected. I didn't wake up until 2 and then got suckered into watching Summerland videos on YouTube. Haha. What a Saturday I had. I'll be writing tomorrow, including adding a chapter to the long lost 'Start Of Something Entirely New'. I have no idea what it'll be, but I'll dream up something tonight. Anyways, enjoy.

The next few days were amazing. Troy and Gabriella were unseperatable. They did everything together. From going out to dinner and getting pictures in a photo booth, to just sitting outside looking at the stars and heavy makeout sessions, they did it. Everyone was having a blast.

Thursday rolled up quicker than it was supposed to. Troy had to be at the airport by two. After going out for lunch the three of them drove to the airport. Karen sat down with the duffel bag and Troy's carry-on and suggested the two find something for Troy to read on the plane. They agreed and walked to the nearest shop. They ended up picking up a Sports Illustrated magazine along with some snacks. On the way back they held hands. Gabi faced him and wrapped her arms around his neck. "Thank you." She said, smiling up at him. "Anything for you." He replied as he kissed her forehead. "Can you promise me one thing?" Gabi looked up at him. "Try to have fun here. You'll be back in New Mexico before you know it. Plus, you're coming for a week after school." Gabi frowned at the thought of trying to have fun without her friends. "Please?" Gabi sighed, "Fine. I promise." "Good." They both smiled as they both leaned in for eachothers lips.

They walked back to Karen who had seats reserved. They sat there for an hour or so, and when five o clock rolled along, they started to board the passengers. "Thank you Mrs. Montez." Troy said hugging his girlfriends mother. "Anytime Troy. Have a safe flight." Troy went up to Gabriella. He wrapped his arms around her and she did the same. He hugged her tight. He noticed a tear roll down her cheek and onto his shirt. "Hey. Don't cry. It's only going to be another month untill we get to see eachother. Then you get to come back." He kissed her lips. They sat there for a few minutes until his row was called. "I'll call you when I land." Mrs. Montez and Gabi nodded. "I love you." He said as he turned around, flinging his backpack over his shoulder and grabbing his duffel. "I love you too." Gabi said as she hugged her mom for support. As he reached the doors he turned around and pointed to his eyes, then his heart and then at Gabriella. She did the same back to him, adding a number two at the end. He blew her a kiss. They both laughed and soon the doors closed. "It's okay sweetie." Karen said, comforting her daughter.

A half an hour into the flight Troy pulled out his carry-on. Laying on top of his stuff there was a letter that said TROY on it with hearts surrounding his name. He laughed, "That is so like her." He said under his breath. He opened the letter.

Troy-
I can't stress how much this week meant to me. Thank you sooo much for coming out here
for me. I can't wait until school is out so I can come back to New Mexico to see you. I'm going
to miss you so much... I love you with all of my heart, Troy Bolton. You never seize to amaze
me. Have fun. Well, not too much fun ;) Tell everyone I said Hi and that I miss them. Call
me as soon as you get home. Bye Boyfriend! 3
With all my love, Gabi

He sighed as he rolled back his head and fell asleep.

Gabi got home an hour later and went to lay on her bed. She noticed a peice of paper on her pillow. It said Gabi on it with hearts and stars all over it. "That is so like him!" She said to herself as she opened it up.

To the most amazing person I have ever met-
Gabriella Montez. When I hear your name it makes my heart melt. Wow, that sounded really
corny. But it's true. Thank you so much for letting me stay at your house this week. It was
really wonderful to spend time with you. I can't wait until you come out to Albequrque to visit.
I love you so much. It's undescribable. Try and have fun out there. I will be missing you until then.
I will call you everyday, and I will miss you. Bye Girlfriend. 3
Yours always, Troy

She put it by the picture of the two and sighed. She pulled out the pictures from the photo booth at the mall and stared at them. The first picture was normal, she had her head on Troy's shoulder and they both smiled. The second was a funny picture. Gabi was laughing at Troy who was sticking his tongue out. The third was a picture of Troy kissing Gabriella on the cheek. And the last was of the two kissing. She smiled as she set the pictures back down. Troy called, saying that he got in okay, and that he enjoyed his letter. Gabriella thanked him for coming and that she should get going to sleep. They said their 'I love you's and Gabriella fell asleep.

The weekend was short. Too short. Monday morning she rolled out of bed and took a shower and dried her hair. It was curly so she left it down. She put on some makeup and threw on a pair of jeans and a red shirt. She grabbed her purse and headed down the stairs. She put on a pair of red converse's and grabbed a poptart out of the cupboard. "Morning." She smiled to her mom as she sat down at the table. "Morning sweetie. Are you almost ready?" Gabi nodded as she grabbed a black bookbag and headed to the car.

At school she walked into the office and was greeted by the principal and office assistants. She went to her first class, Chem. She sat down. "Gabriella?" She heard someone ask as she pulled out her binder. "Carly? What are you doing here?" Carly was Gabi's mom's coworkers daughters, who happened to be one of her good friends at Cambrook her freshmen year (a/n: definatly made it up.). "My mom transfered here after Christmas break when the company relocated everyone. Where'd you end up going?" "New Mexico." Gabi said, smiling at the thought. "Did you like it there?" Gabi laughed, "You have no idea." Carly took a look at Gabi's binder. "I can see why! Who is that?" She asked as she pointed to the pictures of her and Troy in the photobooth. "Troy." Gabi sighed happily.

"Everyone get in your seats. You're in school now kiddos, it's not spring break." A male teacher walked in. He looked about 25. He passed out papers. It was stuff that they already went over in East High. Gabi only remembered because she helped Troy with it. As he was explaining how to do it to the class she finnished it up. "When you are done, turn it up to the desk." Gabi didn't want to seem like a braniac scholastic decatholan champion, well wait she was. She waited five minutes and turned it up to his desk... "You're done awfully fast." he said, not removing his eyes from the book he was reading. He looked up "Oh, you must be Gabriella. Hi, I'm Mr. Trupp." "Hi." Gabriella said, "That's a great book." She pointed to the book that was on his desk. It was the book that she read on New Years. Mr. Trupp smiled, "Don't tell me the ending." Gabriella smiled as she giggled a little bit and returned to her desk.

The day came to a close. It wasn't no East High, but it was better than alot of the other places. She didn't want to get connected to anyone because in a few months she would be leaving anyways. She walked home from school that day. When she got home she was home alone. She checked her cellphone for missed messages. She listened to her voicemail. "Hey Gabs. It's Troy. Just wondering how your first day went. Give me a call when you get a chance. Love you." She immediatly called Troy's number.

"Hello?" Troy answered.
"Hey you." Gabi said, semi cheerfuly. "Oh hey girfriend." Gabi giggled a bit. "How was your big day?" Troy asked. "It was..." Gabi paused, thinking back to her day, "Okay." "You're lying." "No, I promise." "Make any new friends?" He asked. "Not exactly new. But one of my old friends was there." "Hm. Interesting. Any boyfriends?" Troy asked, laughing after. "Yes." Gabi said. Troy just shut up. "He's a basketball player." Troy sat there. "His name is Troy Bolton. He's the love of my life." Troy just laughed, "I hate you." "Oh, that hurt." She said sarcastically. "Well, I have to go try and figure out this Algebra II homework since I lost my tutor." "Good luck Wildcat. I love you." Gabi said. "I love you too. I'll talk to you later on tonight." "Okay. Bye." And with that she hung up.

Her mom walked in the house. "How was your day?" Karen asked as she sat down a few grocery bags on the counter. "Good. Why didn't you tell me Carly went there?" "Are you serious? I knew she went to Florida, just not there." She laughed. "Well, I better get started on my homework." Gabi said as she headed to her room. The truth is, she went to her room just to lay there and dream about going back to East High. She was afraid everyone would change. Maybe they won't like me anymore, I mean, I did leave them. Gabi thought. She sat there. Maybe going back to East High wasn't such a great idea.

Cliffhanger! Well, sorta. Anyways, I'll update more tomorrow morning, maybe get two chapters in. I've never been more into writing a story in my life. LOL. 3
