Hi.R&R

When Gabby got to school on Monday morning, she discovered that Taylor was very, very, very wrong. Troy had his arm draped over Sharpay's shoulder and was walking down the hallway carrying her books and everything.

Gabby ran to find Taylor. When she did, all she said was, "Did you see?"

Taylor just looked down.

"I guess so, huh?"

"I'm so sorry, Gabby."

Later that day……..

Gabby was called down to the office because she was being dismissed in the middle of English. When she got down to the office, she saw Dave standing there.

She sighed and after she was signed out and they were standing in the parking lot she spat out, "I'm not leaving with you." And started to walk away, but her father protested.

"Wait, Gab-,"

"NO! I'm sick and tired of people telling me to wait, just so that they can give me lame excuses about things they know are LIES!" Gabby put emphasis on the last word. "That's all I've been feed lately is LIES!"

She ran off and to the park where she used to hang out. She sat on the swing which she had used to help her sort things out.

Flashback

Gabby had just learned that her father had 'died' and was sitting on the swing, while her mother pushed her, tears streaming down both of their faces.

Gabby sat thinking. Thinking about how her Dad used to push her and everytime she came down he would say one word in the sentence 'I love you.'

Push, up…..down, 'I', push, up…….down, 'Love', push, up………down, 'You', push, up……..down,…………….

End Flashback

Gabby swung herself when she felt a hand on her shoulder. She had been thinking about the flashback and about how she was only one and a half, but still remembered it.

She turned around to snap at the person who had interrupted her thinking when she saw the face of her mother.

All of a sudden, they both started crying. "The secretary of the school saw you run off. She called me and told me about it. I thought I'd find you here."

Gabby smiled.

"Hi, Mom."

"C'mon. Let's go home. I have orange juice."

Gabby smiled. Wider. Her mom always knew how to make her happy.

They stood up and walked over to their car. When they got home, Gabby wondered aloud, "I wonder if Taylor will bring me my homework?"

"What's that, Hun?" asked Ms. Bellossa.

"Oh, ah, nothing. Just thinking to myself."

"Okay."

"Hey, Mom. Can Taylor come over?"

"Sure Hun."

Later at Troy's house……

"Hey, Dad. Guess what." Said Troy.

"What?" said Mr. Bolton.

"I think you'll be happy to know that I am no longer going out with Gabriella Montez."

"I'm guessing you dumped her."

"How do you know?"

"You loved that girl. You're not going out with her anymore and you ain't blubbering all over me. Ergo… you broke up with her."

"You sure are smart, Daddy." Said Troy playfully.

Troy ran up the stairs and called Sharpay.

The next day at East High…….

Gabby walked into school and saw Taylor hanging out next to Chad.

"Hi, Tay." She said when she got there.

"Hey, Gabby." Said Taylor.

"Hi, Gabby." Said Chad.

Things were akward between Chad and Gabriella because Taylor and him were going out and Gabby and Troy weren't anymore. Gabby and Taylor were best friends and Chad and Troy were best friends. ((If that made sense.))

"I'd better go." Said Chad.

"Yeah, you should. I mean, no offense or anything. I just wanna talk to Tay for a sec." said Gabby nervously.

"Bye." He ran off to where Troy and Sharpay were hanging out.

"She makes me so sick." Spat Gabby through gritted teeth.

All of a sudden, Sharpay said something that made Troy drop his jaw and watch her in shock as she walked towards Gabby and Taylor.

"Oh, god. What does she want?" said Gabby before Sharpay got there.

"Um….. hi, Gabby." Said Sharpay.

"Hello, Sharpay."

"I just thought I'd let you know, I broke up with Troy. I know it's only been, like 24 hours, not even, but, he said that if I wasn't going to become a cheerleader for the wildcats, he would dump me, so I dumped him. Well… I'd better go."

"Um, wait. Sharpay, do you wanna sit with us at lunch?"

"Oh, sure."

"Cool." Said Gabby, and smiled.

R&R!
