Chapter 8

The next morning, Gabriella woke up only when she heard a banging on the door.

"Gabriella," Isabel yelled.

Gabriella jumped out of bed and opened the door. Isabel walked in.

"Tell me everything!" she demanded.

Gabriella laughed as she sat on the bed, remembering the night's events. She opened her mouth to speak, but, she was interrupted by her cell phone ringing. She grabbed it and looked at the caller ID. Her eyes widened. It was Troy.

Gabriella (regular)/Troy (italic)

"Hello?"

"Hey, Gabriella, it's Troy."

"Hi, Troy."

"Gabs, did I wake you?"

"No, I was woken by Isabel who just came storming into the room."

Troy laughed. "Great, now, I won't feel guilty."

"Yeah, Isabel should be the one feeling guilty."

"So, I just wanted to make sure we're still going out today."

"Yeah, I wouldn't miss our date."

"Great. I'll see you at four."

"Yeah. I'll see you at four."

"And, um…don't dress up or something. Wear something casual and comfy. You'll look amazing either way."

"Thanks, Troy."

"Bye, Gabi."

"Bye, Troy."

They hung up and Gabriella smiled to herself. Isabel grinned at her.

"Do you have a date?" she asked.

"Yup," Gabriella said, happily. "At four o' clock."

"What are you going to wear?" Isabel asked.

"Troy said to where something casual," Gabriella replied.

"Oh," Isabel said.

"Don't be so disappointed," Gabriella laughed. "Casual will be more comfortable than dressing up and I want to be as comfortable as I can today, because, I have already started to get nervous."

Isabel laughed at Gabriella and ran to her closet. A minute later, she emerged carrying a red tank top and a pair of white jeans.

"Wear these, okay?" Isabel advised. "You love these and you're always saying how comfortable these are. And, where those new sneakers you got the other day. It'll be totally casual."

"Thanks, Iz," Gabriella said, gratefully. "But, will I look good enough in this?"

"Gabs, you'll look perfect," Isabel assured her sister. "Just put on those brown beads you've got and you'll look amazing."

"Thanks, Iz," Gabriella smiled again.
