Chapter 9: What the message said
When Gabriella opened the message it read: "Hey Gabi, just wondering if you are ready" Gabriella quickly put on a long dark blue skirt and a long sleeved light blue shirt with a white sweater on top. She replied to the message saying "Yeah, are you" A few minutes later her phone beeped again. "Yeah, I'm on my way." So Gabriella quickly put her hair up and put some lip gloss on. She ran over to her mom's room. "Mom, I'm going out." "Ok sweetie, be back before 10." Once Troy arrived Gabriella walked outside and got in his car.
Troy kissed her on the cheek. "Hi" Gabriella started blushing. "So, where are we going?" she asked. Troy didn't say anything. Gabriella giggled. "Are you gonna tell me where we are going?" "Nope." They kept silent the whole ride. When Troy stopped the car and got out Gabriella noticed they were at the park. She got out of the car and walked over to Troy. Troy looked over at her. "Just wait here a minute." he said. Gabriella just stood there smiling not knowing what to expect. When Troy finally came back he grabbed Gabriella's hand and took her near the lake.
Gabriella smiled. "Troy, where are you taking me?" "You'll see" After a few minutes Gabriella saw a picnic set up near the lake. She smiled and looked at Troy.When she looked at him she noticed he was looking at her too. "Troy, this is so sweet" She hugged him and sat on the blanket. Troy smiled and sat next to her. He opened the basket behind them and took out a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Troy handed Gabriella the sandwich then grabbed another one from the basket. Gabriella smiled. "Thanks, for everything." "No problem Gabi, I know it's been rough but camp should be fun right?" Gabriella started eating her sandwich. Troy smiled. "What? You don't think camp will be fun." Gabriella finished chewing and looked at Troy. "I'm excited, it's just that Sharpay isn't going to make it easy." Troy laughed. "Yeah, I guess but as long as we don't look into her eyes it should be fine." They both started laughing until Troy put his arm around Gabriella's shoulder. They both blushed but at the same time felt comfortable. Troy moved the basket out of the way and they layed down to watch the stars.
Gabriella grabbed Troy's hand and and started smiling. They watched the stars for hours. "The stars are beautiful tonight." Troy looked over at Gabriella. "Yeah you are." Gabriella looked over at Troy and smiled. Troy leaned in. Gabriella stalled for a minute but eventually went in for a kiss. Right before their lips touched Gabriella's phone rang. Gabriella pulled away and answered her phone. "Hello?" "Gabriella, where are you?" "Mom, I'm with Troy. Why?" "It's 10:30!" "Oh, I'm so sorry mom. We lost track of time." "It's fine but get home now." "Ok mom we are on are way." Troy looked at her. "What's going on?" "It's 10:30" Troy looked at his watch. "Oh, Gabi I am so sorry." "It's fine but can you take me home?""Yeah c'mon let's go."
So they got in Troy's car and headed to Gabriella's house. During the car ride they talked about camp and Sharpay and before they knew it they had arrived at Gabriella's house. Gabriella kissed Troy on the cheek and got out of the car. Smiling she said "Thank you for the picnic, it was lovely. See you soon." She ran to her door, opened it and walked inside. She ran up into her room, took a shower and signed onto her IM. She saw that nobody was on so she signed off and headed to bed.
