Gabriella lent down and pulled out a box of nail polish from her bedside table, absently opening it and picking out a color. She needed it to go with her outfit. She sat down on her bed and pulled out her favorite.

Her cell phone rang as she opened it and with a small noise of dismay the nail polish dropped from her fingers and all over her pants. She picked her phone up and answered with a dismayed, "Hello?"

"Hey," Troy's voice answered, and Gabriella grimaced. "I'm sorry Gabby, but I have to cancel our plans for tonight. My dad called an extra basketball practice and it's going to go on for a while. Is that okay with you?"

"Yeah, sure Troy,"

"Okay, thanks Gab! Bye!" She looked down at her ruined outfit as the dial tone played.

Oh well. He wouldn't see.
