End of Recap
That night, Troy went outside alone to talk to Gabriella. He wasn't bored since his friends were there but he just wanted to talk to Gabriella.
He dialled her number nervously and waited patiently for Gabriella to pick.
"Hello?" Gabriella's soft voice started.
"Hey Gabriella! I was just.. Umm.. Bored! Nothing to do here." Troy said and Gabriella just giggled. Troy never knew that all of his friends were hiding behind a bush listening to his conversation.
"Nothing to do?? What the hell? All of us were having fun watching a movie!!" Chad whispered and everyone nodded quietly.
"Who is he talking to anyway?" Jason mumbled and everyone shrugged.
"How are we suppose to know!" Kelsi said.
"So, do you want to umm.. Eat lunch tomorrow or something. If you don't want to I totally understand." Troy explained nervously.
"Sure!" Gabriella replied and Troy sighed in relief.
"Really?? COOL! Well, I'll pick you up at about 10:30. Bye!" Troy said and they both hung up.
"YES!" Troy jumped up and kiss his phone while the others stared at him weirdly.
"I better go back inside." Troy said to his self and the whole group panicked.
"Run inside quickly!" Chad whispered loudly and whole of them stumbled and fell on the ground causing a loud noise.
"What was that?" Troy frowned and head towards the place where he heard the noise from.
"What's going on?!" Troy raised his eyebrow, narrowing his eyes on the bunch of people lying on the ground.
"We needed some fresh air." Zeke answered nervously and the rest agreed.
"Right…" Troy obviously didn't buy it.
"Let's go inside!" Sharpay quickly added and everyone ran back in the house before Troy could ask another question.
-----------------------------------
Gabriella lied on her bed and just stared at the balcony.
"I'm going to have lunch with Troy!" Gabriella exclaimed and started jumping on her bed.
"Wait!" She suddenly stopped.
"Are we going on a date?" She asked herself and an unexpected smile just played on her lips.
----------------------------------
"Dude, who were you talking to last night?" Chad asked the next morning when they were in his room.
"Just someone I met." Troy was still not ready to reveal the girl he'd crushing on because he don't want to explain how they met. Its just too embarrassing for him.
"And who can that someone be?" Chad asked with interest.
"Just drop it. I have somewhere to go to." Troy checked the time and it was already 8:30am.
"Like a date or something?" Chad just blurted out and Troy suddenly froze by the mention on the word 'date'.
"Umm.. No." Troy quickly ran downstairs trying to avoid Chad's questions.
------------------------------------
"Hey Tay! Can you come over? Its school break right? So you have nothing to do." Gabriella said on the phone.
"Yeah sure. Why do you need me for?" Taylor asked with interest.
"Well, I have somewhere to go." Gabriella plainly answered trying to hide the fact that she has a date with someone.
"It didn't happen to be something to do with a guy right?" Taylor raised and eyebrow and Gabriella finally gave in.
"Ok fine. I'm having lunch with this guy I met." Gabriella said sheepishly.
"Ohh…. I see. I'll be right there!" Taylor said excitedly.
In less than 20 minutes, Taylor arrived with an energized smile.
"Gabi I'm here!" Taylor called out while running up the stairs.
"Thanks for coming Tay." Gabriella said, relief.
"Well, what do you need me for?" Taylor said as they both enter Gabriella's room.
"I don't know what to wear!" Gabriella blurted and Taylor burst out laughing.
"You're telling me that THE Gabriella Montez is really preparing for this date of hers with a guy she just met??" Taylor said and the word 'date' slowly sunk into Gabriella.
"Umm.. Maybe." She answered and Taylor giggled but received a glare afterwards.
"Ok let's start by going through all your clothes in your closet. More like a mall though." Taylor laughed and Gabriella just blushed in embarrassment. Its true because Gabriella does have a gigantic closet full of clothes.
---------------------------------------
The gang wouldn't leave Troy alone. All morning they've been bugging him.
"Guys! Just this once, please don't ruin it for me!" Troy yelled and the whole group shook their heads.
"We're not letting you go out unless you tell us where you're going!" Sharpay demanded and Troy was really annoyed now.
"I'm gonna have lunch with a friend! End of discussion!" Troy answered back.
"You can't go alone without your driver!" Chad said with a smug smile.
"And you don't have a car!" The others said exactly the same time and burst out laughing.
"That's where you guys are wrong!" Troy smirked and everyone stared at him confused.
"What do you mean?" Kelsi asked.
"Look outside. In the driveway!" Troy said and everyone rushed to the door. The first one who reached the driveway were Zeke and Jason.
"You got to be kidding me" Jason said shaking his head.
"Wow!" Zeke exclaimed.
"What is it?" Taylor asked.
When they were finally in the driveway, everyone just stared at Troy's new car.
"Is that the 2007 Saturn Sky Red Line?? (There's a picture of the car in my profile)" Chad swallowed and everyone stared at him surprised.
"I never knew you know such long names." Jason chuckled.
"Is it?" Zeke asked again while the two girls just stared at the brand new car since they didn't know what the boys were talking about.
"Yup. My dad bought it for me." Troy said happily.
"Cool!" The all said in unison.
"I should be going now!" Troy simply said and enter his new car.
"Wait! You're not allowed to go without us!" Chad said and everyone agreed with him.
"I'll make you guys a deal. If you let me go this time, when I come back home, you can ride my new car all the time you want. Just ask me first." Troy said wiggling his eyebrows. Everyone thought for a second before coming up with their answer.
"Fine!" Everyone said.
"But be careful Troy! Coach will kill me if anything happens to you!" Chad pleaded and Troy nodded.
------------------------------
"So how do I look?" Gabriella asked one last time.
"You look beautiful! Whoever's gonna pick you up will have his jaw hanging open!" Taylor laughed and Gabriella threw a pillow at her.
"Anyway, I have to go now. Bye!" Taylor waved and run to her car.
"Thanks again Tay!" Gabriella called out.
"Anytime!" Taylor yelled out and drove off.
-------------------------------
Troy pulled out at the back of the mansion where he usually goes.
"Here we go again!" Troy said as he climbed up the wall being careful not to get caught.
As soon as he was on the ground, he quickly grabbed his phone and dialled Gabriella's number.
"Hey Gabriella! I'm at the back of the garden." Troy said quietly.
"Ok! I'll be right there!" Gabriella answered then they both hung up.
Troy was waiting patiently for her and at the same time, checking if there are any guards around.
"Hey!" Gabriella suddenly came out of nowhere which startled Troy a little bit. Then he paused with his jaw dropping and just watched her from head to toes.
"You look…. AMAZING!!" He exclaimed which caused Gabriella to blush.
"Thanks!" She said softly and it was now his turn to blush when he realised what he just said.
"You ready?" He asked, changing the subject and Gabriella nodded.
Troy lead her and finally came face to face with a wall.
"Umm… how are we gonna get out?" Gabriella asked confusedly and Troy just chuckled.
"We're gonna jump over." He simply answered.
"So that's how you got in!" She exclaimed.
"How else?" He smirked.
"I don't think I can jump that high by the way!" Gabriella reminded Troy.
"Oh. I'll boost you up." He shrugged and she shook her head.
"Nope. You can't because I'm too heavy. I eat a lot…." She started babbling words out and he just rolled his eyes. Troy suddenly bent down and Gabriella paused and eyed Troy.
"What are you doing?" She asked now knowing what Troy was planning to do. Before she knew it, Troy put her on his shoulder and lifted her up.
"WOW! He's one strong guy!" Gabriella thought with a smile.
"What are you smiling at?" Troy asked confused when they were finally sitting on the wall.
"Nothing." Gabriella quickly answered trying to hide her red face. Troy was the first one to jump down and he was motioning Gabriella to jump.
"No way I'm jumping! Its too high! And I'm wearing high heels. " Gabriella whined.
"Fine then. You can stay there all night. Bye Gabriella!" Troy pretended to walk away leaving a very shocked Gabriella.
"Troy don't leave me!" She finally said.
"Ok good. Jump!" He said with a victorious smile on his face.
"What if I fall?" She asked unsure.
"I'll catch you. Trust me." He reassured her and she nodded.
"You better." She then closed her eyes and jumped. Her feet didn't even hit the ground because Troy was now twirling her around.
"There. That wasn't so hard." Troy smiled and put her down.
"So where are we going?" Gabriella finally asked.
"This restaurant I saw. They have really good food there. You'll love it!" Troy said and lead her to the car.
"Hold on! I need to put on my sun glasses." Gabriella opened her purse and pulled out a big sun glasses.
"Hard to be famous huh?" Troy chuckled.
"Yeah." Gabriella said a little bit annoyed at the thought.
"Wow! That car looks hot. I wonder who owns that!" Gabriella exclaimed as she spotted the Saturn Sky Red Line.
"You'll never guess." Troy laughed and Gabriella stared at him weirdly. Finally it clicked to her.
"That car didn't happen to be yours right?" She asked curiously and Troy smiled knowing that she loved the car.
"What if it is?" He chuckled and Gabriella smiled widely. She have been in so many fancy cars but this one was not too simple and not too fancy. The exact car she wants.
"Are you serious?" Gabriella exclaimed happily and Troy nodded while grinning.
"Cool!" She clapped and they went for a ride.
