Dear Diary. ATS R&R
Account of my life
Monday 7th July. First day of term.
OK I know, I know I don't seem like the type of guy that enjoys writing down his feelings, well believe me I'm not. I didn't think I was, but with all the stress lately I thought it would be better to write an... account of my life.
I could not be bothered going back to school. I mean it's not as if I'm not popular or anything. Oh wait no! That sounds vain doesn't it?
Well I'm captain of East High School's Wildcat's basketball team. So I guess I must be popular. And I suppose I must be hot too, with my bright blue eyes and dirty blonde hair, unless girls just date me for my popularity. I don't know anyway, back to my day.
Anyway I was walking in to school with my best friends Chad Danforth, basically brown hair in an afro, and Zeke Baylor, dark skin and short hair. We stopped in at the cafeteria to get juice. Come on a guy needs orange juice to satisfy him. I saw a girl standing in the middle of the hallway. I was walking in her direction when suddenly she turned around, but as she done this I walked into her. She dropped all of her books but worse I spilled my orange juice all down her shirt you could see it was going to leave a stain.
It was just like me to do something like that.
"I'm so sorry." I said to the girl, I thought she was quite cute with long wavy brown hair, and big brown eyes.
"No, I'm sorry it was my fault!" She said back, she was obviously embarrassed, as she was blushing.
"Let's just say it was both our faults. I'm Troy Bolton," I held out my hand to her.
"And I'm Gabriella Montez" She said.
It was really weird but as she shook my hand I felt a spark, I made myself forget about it though. I mean I have a girlfriend! But have never felt this way with Sharpay as I have about Gabby.
"It's really good to meet you Gabriella." I said.
"You too Troy. Oh and call me Gabby everyone does!"
"OK, Gabby?"
"Yes?"
"You can let go of my hand now" I said and laughed, so she knew I wasn't taking it seriously.
"Oh right sorry." She said. I noticed she blushed even harder. "I better go to the toilet to try and get this orange juice off of my shirt."
"I'm sorry again" I said as I walked off.
"Me too!" I heard her call after me.
I really should have showed her where the toilets were. But I was late. I had to go see Sharpay for a make out session before our first class.
You know what happened in class we learned useless stuff, that you don't need to know if your going to be a basketball coach, or hopefully player.
Nothing really happened at lunch, just a quick make out session with Sharpay, I didn't even feel a spark, and I know I sound like a complete and total bastard, but I just couldn't get the picture of Gabby out of my head . I know I've only talked to her that one time, and seen her walking around school like twice. But I couldn't get the picture of her smiling shyly out of my mind when I was kissing Sharpay. And it was
there for the rest of the day. Great!
The next few classes went by pretty quickly, but they were still boring obviously, I mean it is school. All I could concentrate on was Gabriella. I could tell the teacher was pissed off at me for not paying attention, but what did they expect it was the first day back.
After school I saw Gabriella waiting by the gates I walked up to her, covered her eyes and said "Guess Who"
"Umm" she said joking around," Joe Jonas?" She probably new it was me but said this just to wind me up.
"Ex-cuse me?" I said pretending to be upset.
"Hey Troy!"
"Hey Gabby! See I knew that you knew that I knew that you knew it was me!"
"What the?" she said trying to work out what I just said "I'm confused you make my head hurt!"
"You have to be a total mastermind to know what I just said."
"Fine then what did you say?"
"I said that I knew that you the that I know that... SHUT UP!"
"Great comeback!" she retorted, giggling.
I stuck my tongue out at her and laughed too.
"Hey Gabriella, Hey baby" I heard Sharpay say walking up to us.
"Hey Sharpay" Gabby said still giggling.
"Hey Babes!"
"Who are you waiting for Gabriella?" Sharpay asked.
"Taylor McKessie. I need to give her back this cardigan."
"Sorry again" I said.
"Oh I ran into her before my last class and she told me she was going to be late and that you were just to walk without her." Sharpay said smiling sweetly.
"I suppose I'll give her this back tomorrow then." she said.
"Where abouts do you live Gabby?" I asked her.
"438 Apple Drive." she answered giving me her address.
"That's in my direction, walk you home?" I offered lying, Thank god Sharpay didn't say anything.
"Sure!" She accepted
"OK, I wanted to get home quickly anyway, and I knew I wouldn't if I was walking you," she giggled "so.."
"OK see you later then Shar." I said
"Bye Sharpay."
"Bye Gabriella, Troy aren't you forgetting something?" She asked me.
"Oh right sorry." I said not really forgetting just not wanting to in front of Gabby and I kissed Sharpay goodbye.
"Bye babe" Sharpay said as she walked off in the other direction, catching up with one of her other friends.
Gabby and I started walking as an uncomfterble silence fell.
"So.." I said.
"So.." she said at the exact same time as me. We both laughed a little too hard, maybe it was just to fill the silence..
"I didn't know that you knew Shar!" I said.
"Well yeah I met her this morning just before I met you, and she said she was going to meet her boyfriend, well you " She answered.
There was a bit of silence. It was a bit awkward really though I don't know why.
"So why are you considered the most popular guy in school?" She asked hesitantly.
"Well it's probably because of my fantastic basketball skills and amazing good looks." I answered only half joking.
"Don't forget your modesty!"
We both laughed at her small joke.
"That was mean" I said as I played being upset.
"You and your huge ego had it coming!" She replied simply
"Hey! George isn't huge he's just big!"
We both couldn't stop laughing at how wrong that sounded. But we both got weird stares and dirty looks off strangers, although, I couldn't care less about what other people thought.
Then, we got to her house.
"So, this is it."
"OK so I suppose I'll see you at school tomorrow?"
"Yeah, bye" she said as she was unlocking her door.
"Bye Gabs."
She opened the door and turner around. "Gabs?"
"I thought I would give you a new nickname." I smiled.
"OK bye" she said again as she walked in and closed the door behind her.
I just stood there just feeling disappointed.
Why did I not kiss her? Oh That's right I have a bimbo for a girlfriend! Lucky me!
She probably wouldn't do anything about it though. Gabriella I mean. She's friends with Sharpay, and probably doesn't go for people that spill orange juice down her. Why the hell did I get orange juice this morning?
Then I remembered. I don't live round there. How did I get home? It took me like 40 minutes. But I was late for playing basketball with Chad and Zeke. Yeah they were pissed off at me. I had to tell them I was at a job interview
" Dude, what is the job you were getting interviewed for?" Chad asked
"Emm..."I said trying to think of a reasonable job "Dog groomers" WTF what was I thinking!?
"Dog groomers?" Zeke asked laughing.
"Dude, when did you start liking dogs?" Chat asked.
"Dude he's going out with Sharpay" Zeke said.
"I've always liked dogs, dude" I said with my bad acting skills, ignoring Zekes comment.
"And pink poodles?"
"They're like the best type? Anyway are we going to play basketball or talk about my future career?"
"What Future career?" My dad asked
"Oh you know what career?" I asked more like a question than a statement.
"Coaching?" My dad asked.
"No, no Troy wants to be a dog groomer." Zeke said. I gave him a dirty look.
"I'm just keeping my options open" I said and threw the ball at his head. "Now let's play some ball!"
So basically that's my day, I need to go for my shower !
Bye catch you later dude!
