Chapter 4

Chad tried looking for Troy but he got to him too late. He was already walking off with Gabriella.

"Hey Troy," Chad said running after him, "wait up man."

He then bumped into his girlfriend Taylor, "Hey Chad!"

I guess I'll just talk to Troy tomorrow. He thinks to himself. Grabbing Taylor's hand, "Wanna go get a milkshake or something?"

Kissing him on the cheek, "Sure Chad, just get me home by 6. I have a test I need to study for"

"Alright you little brainiac!"

Gabriella's House

Troy and Gabriella are walking down the stairs from practicing for the musical. They get to the door and Troy hugs her then opens the door. "Well, Gabby I think we are ready for this."

"You think? I mean I always get so nervous that my mouth will open and then no words will come out and then."

"Hey, you'll do great. You always do. Bye."

"Bye Troy, see you in homeroom." She closes the door behind her and goes back up to her room to practice.

Troy is walking to his house since he doesn't live that far from Gabriella's house. He takes his phone out and thinks about calling Sharpay. I wonder if she would let me come over sometime to play basketball at her house.

Troy opens the front door and walks in to find he just made it in time for dinner. Going over to kiss his mom on the cheek that is already sitting at the table. "Sorry I'm a little late, Gabriella wanted to practice till we were perfect."

"Don't worry honey, you made it just in time."

His dad just looks at him, "Hey practice makes perfect. So Troy can I ask you something?'

Taking a seat across from his father, "Sure, shoot."

"Speaking of shooting, who was that girl you were playing basketball with in the gym today. She didn't look like Chad."

Afraid his dad would be mad like he was when Gabriella came in the gym that time last year, "Well you see I didn't know she was gonna be there. I didn't even know she knew how to play basketball. I just figured since she was there, she could help me practice. Sorry if it was a problem I wont do it again. "

"Troy don't worry about it. I mean the girl was good, great even. Is she trying out for the girl's team?" Mr. Bolton says eating his dinner.

"Yea she is, it's her first year. She normally does the whole musical thing." Troy says wondering what the big deal is and why his father cared so much.

"Well once she makes the team, I think she should come to some of our practices. She could beat some of our guys."

"I don't know dad, you ask her."

"Alright I will, tomorrow after tryouts."

Troy starts eating his food, Tomorrow is going to be one long and interesting day.
