Gabriella ran her fingers through her loose, dark curls, and pouted into the mirror. Her eyes ran over every inch of her reflection. Just as she suspected - she looked great. She tilted her head slightly, still unsure about her dress. She wanted a pink dress, no question about that, but she didn't really like any pink dresses. She came across this one, tight fitting, a short, flared skirt dropping to a couple of inches above her knees. It was a dark, smoky, pink, not pink enough to make her feel nauseous but pink enough to… be pink.

She stopped still. She managed to sit herself down on her bed. What was she doing? Trying to impress someone who clearly was not interested.

Or was she? Gabriella lay back on her bed, thinking…

Gabriella walked into the party at Troy's house. Everybody turned as she strutted through, mumbling noises of approval as she swayed her hips. She ignored a joyful Troy, as she made her way to her target that she'd just spotted.

She approached Zeke and Sharpay.

"Gabriella! I like your dress." Sharpay smiled. "It's pink."

"Yes it is." Gabriella responded, slightly seductively. "Let's dance."

Gabriella pulled Sharpay onto the dance floor. Her confidence both surprised and amused Sharpay, as she went along with Gabriella's dancing.

Gabriella placed her hands on Sharpay's hips, moving them in time to the music, in time with her own.

"I didn't know you could move so fluidly." Sharpay smiled at Gabriella.

"I knew you could." Gabriella grinned, a slight flicker of the eyebrows. "It's hot."

"Really?" Sharpay laughed, brushing Gabriella's curls out of her eyes.

"I bet you're a great kisser too." Gabriella said quietly, with a smirk.

"You'd better find out then." Sharpay responded, with a slight shy smile.

Gabriella's right hand slid up to Sharpay's neck, and pulled her head in towards her own. As their lips touched, Gabriella felt her lips tingle so much that she thought they may explode. Her legs trembled slightly, and embraced the feeling that she'd imagined for so long. She pulled the rest of Sharpay's body in to her own, feeling her chest press against her own. Hips touched, lips caressed, until Gabriella suddenly became alarmingly aware that dozens of eyes were burning into her.

"Let's get outta here." Gabriella purred, to a seemingly timid, nodding Sharpay.

Gabriella spent the turn of the year exactly the way she wanted to. With Sharpay. Except that she never dared to imagine this would happen. She was on her bed, straddling a whimpering Sharpay, hungrily kissing her red, swollen lips, running her fingertips over her breasts, finally embracing her hidden sexuality.

Gabriella sighed as she entered Troy's party. Nobody noticed her arrive, except for Troy.

"Hey baby." He said, kissing her on the cheek.

"Hey…" She responded distractedly. She soon spotted Sharpay, and walked coyly over.

"Hi Sharpay." She smiled.

"Gabriella." Sharpay said bluntly, before turning back to Zeke and running her hands over his chest, pecking kisses on his lips and elsewhere on his face.

Gabriella sighed to herself. Why did she never get what she wanted? She walked dejectedly back over to Troy and slipped into his arms, where she knew she would spend the turn of the year, this year, and probably next year.

So… that's it! 15 different ways of celebrating new year. I hope you guys enjoyed it. It was a challenge for me, and I didn't think I'd manage some of them, but I did. Please review and let me know what you think. Also, I'm thinking of making a threeshot out of my Troyella chapter (ch5) a chapter before the event, the chapter posted here, and a chapter after the event. Let me know what you think.

But wait…. This series is not finished. I may have written a special chapter 16. It's a group one. It's quite sweet. I'll post it either late new years eve or early new years day. That's UK time.

Look, I've written an annoying long author's note. It's gonna be weird not to have any oneshots to write, might have to start another series.
