Sequel to: School Trip.

A/N: Thank you to everyone who reviewed. I'm sad that this is the end of this story but I am trying to think of something for a sequel since you all want me too. Give me a couple of days to think of stuff then I will let you know. I Just want to say thank you to BostonSk8er9 who gave me some of the ideas for this chapter so this chapter is dedicated to you. Also go read ZacFan91's story. This chapter took a while to do because I wanted to get it just right. It was probably the hardest one I have ever had to do. There will be a lot of flashbacks in this but I wanted to do something about each couple and remembering the fun they had. Anyway here's the epilogue and don't forget to let me know what you think of this chapter. Please Review! WARNING THIS CHAPTER IS SLIGHT M RATED BUT VERY LITTLE AND ONLY FOR ONE PART!

Disclaimer: Still own nothing except Annabelle, Amber, Connor and Aaron

Epilogue

Gabriella was sitting down taking in everything that had just happened. They had graduated. It had all gone by so fast but it was the best. They had all shared so many laughs together, tears together, secrets and she was scared of it all ending. She looked at all her friends together laughing and celebrating like she should be.

Gabriella's P.O.V

I can't believe I graduated. These past two years have been the best two years of my life. I've found the love of my life and I have the greatest friends ever who would be willing to do anything for me. I saw Jason and Kelsi sneaking kisses as they all celebrated.

Flashback

It was Kelsi's 17th and we had all been out to a fair just mucking around before us girls went back to Kelsi's for a sleepover. Her parents had gone out of town a few hours earlier. Of course we had Sharpay's 'I can't sleep without a bed and I need my 8 hour beauty sleep' outburst (A/N: to understand read School Trip), which we had already warned Annabelle about but we were now playing Truth or Dare.

"Kelsi truth or dare?" Taylor asked. Kelsi thought for a second before answering.

"Truth." I rolled my eyes. Kelsi never liked dares from when Sharpay dared Jason to kiss her. Not that she minded.(A/N: Also from School Trip)

"Ok how far have you and Jason gone?" Kelsi's jaw dropped at Taylor's question.

"Kelsi from that reaction I'm guessing that something needs to be said." Sharpay said while I tried to whole my laugh along with Taylor.

"Ok we may have gone all the way." Our jaws dropped at the thought of Kelsi not being so innocent.

"And why do we not know this already?" I asked.

"Because it was none of your business." Kelsi shot as us as we all laughed.

We carried on playing truth or dare finding out that Sharpay always drags Zeke shopping with her and gives him little treats in the changing rooms. We stopped at that not wanting to know anymore. We continued until there was a knock on the living room window. We all gave each other confused looks before Taylor and Sharpay got up to answer the door with a baseball bat in hand that Kelsi had got out from the cupboard under the stairs. They answered it ready to swing the bat when they saw no one there when the boys jumped out from their hiding places.

"Whoa Taylor put the bat down we're not mad lunatics." Chad said as they walked in.

"What are you guys doing here?" Kelsi asked worried because her parents said no boys were allowed over.

"Can't I spend the night with my girlfriend on her birthday?" Jason asked as we girls burst out laughing receiving strange looks from our boyfriends.

"I bet that's not all you want to do." Sharpay said as Jason and the other boys looked confused.

"Lets just say Jason, we know and for you guys lets just say Jason and Kelsi aren't quite so innocent." Taylor explained as the boys jaw's dropped.

"You mean…" Chad started as I nodded. "OMG Jase why didn't you tell us man?" Chad asked as Jason blushed.

"I don't remember ever saying I had to tell you." We all laughed as we sat down. The boys stayed the night with us as we watched movies and just talked.

End Flashback

I laughed to myself at the memory as I turned to look at Sharpay and Zeke. Sharpay had one of Zeke's world-class cookies in her hand as she leaned against Zeke talking.

Flashback

Troy and I were both lying on his bed making out when my cell rang. We both groaned as I leaned over to grab it. The screen flashed Sharpay's ID as I showed the screen to Troy.

"Better see what the Ice princess wants." Troy said as I answered.

(Gabriella…Sharpay)

"Hey Sharpay."

"Hey Gabi you will never guess what I've just done." Gabriella rolled her eyes at Troy who had his ear next to the phone listening.

"Ok what have you just done Sharpay?"

"Me and Zeke just had sex." Gabriella and Troy's jaw's dropped at how Sharpay couldn't care less.

"And you're calling and telling me this because?" Troy and Gabriella were still in shock at Sharpay's willingness to just call and talk about this.

"Because I can't tell Ryan because that's just too weird, Chad and Taylor are probably doing it right now knowing those two and Kelsi is out with Jason somewhere and I'm guessing you and Troy are just hanging out. Gabi it was so amazing I can't believe how …" Sharpay began describing things as Gabriella quickly hung up not wanting to know.

"Ok that was weird." Troy said still recovering from what he had heard. Gabriella too was in shock.

"I don't think I will be able to look at them the same way now." Gabriella said as Troy agreed.

End Flashback

Apart from Troy and I never revealing how far we had been too the others, surprisingly we had never got anything out of Chad and Taylor about how far they had gone.

I saw Taylor had tears in her eyes, which reminded me of how when my mom was in an accident everyone came to the hospital and how much they were there for me.

Flashback

I lay on the couch doing my homework when I heard the phone ring. I got up and leaned over picking up the cordless phone.

"Hello?" I said waiting for a reply.

"Hi this is Dr Foxton from Albuquerque general hospital, I'm afraid your mom has been in an accident and we need you to come down to the hospital." My heart dropped as I heard what had happened. It took me a few seconds to realize what she had said and that I was still on the phone.

"I'll be there as soon as I can." I put the phone down running to the kitchen to grab my keys and bag as tears flowed down my face. I got in the car and drove to the hospital as fast as I could.

At the hospital

I quickly parked my car and ran into the hospital.

"Excuse me I'm looking for my mom, Maria, could you tell me where she is?" I asked quickly.

"She's in with a doctor at the minute but if you take a seat she should be out to you in a minute. I nodded as I felt my phone vibrate in my pocket. I walked back towards the door before answering.

"Hello?"

"Hey Gabi it's Troy are you ok? You don't sound to good." I felt fresh tears come to my eyes.

"Troy my mom's been in an accident I'm at the hospital." I burst into tears as Troy tried to calm me down.

"What hospital?" he asked.

"Albuquerque general." He quickly hung up as I found some strength in me to head back inside. I sat down waiting for news.

10 minutes passed and I still hadn't heard anything. I heard someone call my name. I looked to the side to see Troy and the rest of the gang coming towards me. I stood up and fell straight into Troy's arms as he held me. I soon found myself sitting in Troy's lap as he held me and I felt someone rubbing my arm. I looked and saw Jason rubbing my arm trying to comfort me.

"We're going to be here for you Gabi whatever happens." Zeke told me as I smiled at him.

"Yeah if you need to talk to any of us or need anything day or night you can call me or any of us." Chad said being very serious.

"I'd take Chad up on that offer Gabi because he never lets me call him in the middle of the night." Taylor said as we all laughed slightly as Chad just shrugged.

"And if you need me to stay over at all or need help at home I'll be there." Troy told me as I kissed him.

"Thanks guys." I smiled at the thought of them all trying to look after me as though they were my older brothers. We had all become like brothers and sisters who were best friends with their girlfriend/boyfriend. We sat there in silence when I heard a doctor call my name.

"Gabriella Montez." I stood up and walked over with Troy right behind me. "Are you Gabriella?" she asked. I felt Troy squeeze my hand.

"Yeah and this is my boyfriend Troy Bolton." I answered as she took me aside.

"Your mom has broke her arm and badly bruised her arm but other than a few cuts and bruises I would say she is fine and can go home tomorrow. You can go sit with her now if you like she's in room 1810b." I thanked the doctor before Troy and I walked to her room. As I walked in I saw her sitting there awake.

"Hey mom." I said as I ran up to her and gave her a hug.

"Hey Gabi, Troy." She smiled.

"I'm so glad your ok. I love you mom." I told her as she smiled at me.

"I love you too."

End Flashback

I didn't ask them to come but they all were there for me straight away when they knew I would need them most.

I looked at Taylor smacking Chad. I'm guessing he said something inappropriate again like he always would.

Flashback

They gang were hanging out at Troy's house planning a party that would be held at Sharpay & Ryan's when their parents were out of town the next week.

"So whose in charge of the drinks?" Jason asked.

"We'll get the chefs to take care of that as well as all the food and the butler and maids can get the room sorted out." Sharpay us. I wasn't surprised at this because if Sharpay could have people do things for her then she would. She didn't want anyone else to do stuff when she pad people to do it.

"No one has told their parents have they?" Ryan asked. We weren't telling our parents because none of them ever let us go to parties claiming something bad would happen. What they didn't know is that we always went to them whenever we told them we were sleeping over at someone's. Just then we heard Coach Bolton walk in eyeing us suspiciously as we all shut up.

"What's going on? You all look like your hiding something." He told us as Chad opened his mouth without thinking.

"Absolutely nothing is going on not one thing we're not planning a party or planning on going to any we're just sitting here not talking thinking." Taylor elbowed Chad in the stomach as we all groaned. STUPID Chad!

"I'm guessing what Chad said you weren't doing you in fact are and I'm saying this now no one is going to any party and if I find out you have I will be calling all your parents and you will all be banned from seeing each other." He told us as he walked off.

"Chad!" we all hissed.

"What?!" Chad asked not understanding.

"I guess we can forget about the party then." Annabelle said, as we all agreed not wanting to risk what Coach had threatened.

"What?! Why?!" Chad cried as Taylor hit him.

"Because of you." Everyone yelled.

End Flashback

We never let Chad forget that. He always got the blame whenever we had to cancel our plans because he blabbed the plans to our parents. The once we threatened to tape his mouth together while we made the plans and sometimes we never told him the plans Taylor or Troy would normally just bring him along.

I noticed Ryan and Annabelle weren't with the others so I let my eyes look around and soon spotted them. They were up against a wall not caring who saw them making out. The number of times that the gang would go back to Sharpay and Ryan's and find them half undressed on the sofa making out was endless.

Flashback

Sharpay had invited us all back to her house after we had spent the day dragging the boys round the mall. We walked up the driveway as Sharpay opened the door. We walked into the living quite amused at the sight in front of us. There on the couch lay Ryan shirtless and Annabelle in a bikini top. We were all trying to hold our laughter in as Sharpay grabbed the video camera from the table beside her and started filming. She sent Zeke out the room to go get something. She indicated for all of us to be quiet. Zeke then came back in the room with a jug full of water. Sharpay nodded at him while filming as Zeke threw the water over them. Annabelle screamed as Ryan fell off the couch.

"What the hell?" he asked as he stood up. We all laughed as they both turned a deep shade of red.

"And people say filming others is no fun." Sharpay joked as Annabelle's eyes went wide when she saw the camera.

End Flashback

My eyes finally landed on Troy as I went back to the gang. I remember the first time we got together. It was on our school trip.

Flashback (taken from School Trip)

"Troy, Dare or Dare." Taylor smirked.

"Dare."

"I dare you to… kiss Gabriella." Taylor said as her fingers continued to trace her lips, where, only moments before, Chad's mouth had been.

Gabriella's jaw dropped open in surprise. Before she could say anything Troy's lips pressed themselves lightly against hers. As he kissed her she felt a shiver run down her back. She soon wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him to her. His tongue slid across her bottom lip, begging to deepen the kiss, which she gratefully allowed. His hands pulled on her waist, drawing her even closer, so eventually she was almost sitting on his lap. Pulling away only when they ran out of oxygen to breathe, Troy rested his forehead against hers and just smiled. They turned back to the group who had wide grins on their faces.

After eating, Troy and Gabriella told the group they were going for a walk. Troy grabbed Gabriella's hand as they started walking.

"So…" Troy said trying to start up a conversation.

"So…" Gabriella said copying Troy.

"If I was to say I really liked what happened at lunch what would you say?" Troy asked.

"I might say I really liked it to."

"So would you have any complaints if I were to do it again." He asked with a smug look on his face.

"Nope." With that troy leaned in and kissed Gabriella again, only this time with more passion. After a few minutes they both pulled away breathing heavily. Gabriella was the first to speak.

"I think it might be best we don't tell the others about this just yet." She said hoping Troy would understand.

"Yeah that probably would be for the best because I don't quite think they are ready for us just yet." Troy said as he kissed her again and then slowly started walking back to camp with her.

End Flashback

It wasn't the best circumstances we got together in but I'm so glad we did. I remember how Troy would always do little things just to remind me of how much he loved me. His best surprise came on our 1st year anniversary.

Flashback

I was finishing putting the final touches to my make up when I heard the doorbell go. Troy had planned a surprise for me but he said we would be going away for the night so I had had to get an overnight bag packed. Of course he had cleared it with our parents first he assured me. I heard my mom let Troy in before calling me. I walked downstairs wearing a blue dress watching his reaction. (See dress in profile). His jaw dropped as he saw me as I smiled at him. I walked up to him pushing his mouth up.

"You need to stop drooling otherwise I'm leaving you here and I'm going up there to change." I said as he snapped back to reality.

"You look stunning." He said as he kissed me.

"Thank you are we ready to go?" I asked as I picked up my bag. He nodded as he took my bag from me. We said goodbye to my mom before we drove off.

"I can't believe how good you look." Troy told me as I blushed slightly.

"Thanks you don't look that bad yourself. Where are we going?" I asked.

"It's a surprise." Troy told me as we stopped outside a posh restaurant. "We're going here?" I asked shocked.

"Yep now stay there." He got out and ran round to open the door for me. I got out taking his hand as he led me inside.

We ate making small talk before Troy paid and we left. I had noticed Troy was a bit nervous as we ate but I didn't want to bring it up yet because I didn't want an argument.

"Thank you so much Troy that was amazing." I said as we walked back to his car.

"Well the nights far from over." We got back in the car.

He drove for about two hours with us talking about whatever came to our minds. The car came to a stop and I noticed we were at a hotel. I was confused.

"Ok Troy, what's going on?" I saw him smile as he got out and came and opened the door for me.

"This is where we're staying tonight." I was now even more confused. We walked in and Troy checked in as I tried to figure out what was happening. It then struck me. Troy said we were staying away for a night, he was nervous during diner, we were at a hotel a few hours away from Albuquerque. Troy wants us to go to the next level. I felt my stomach turn. I mean sure I wanted to do it, I've wanted to for some time but I'm nervous. What if Troy thinks I'm not good enough? What if something goes wrong? What if… I was pulled out of my thought as Troy came back looking nervous.

"Hey come on." He took my hand and with our bags in his other hand as he led us up to a suite. "I wanted to do something special for you." He opened the door and I gasped at the sight in front of me. The room was filled with roses scattered over the floor with the candles lit and romantic music in the background. It was obvious he had gone to a lot of trouble to get this perfect.

I could see he was hesitating as we walked in so I made the first move and kissed him. For some reason I wasn't nervous anymore and I knew this is what I wanted. He deepened the kiss as we moved backwards towards the bed. We fell backwards as we both undressed each other. When we were both in just our underwear Troy pulled back and looked at me.

"Are you sure this is what you want because if you want we can stop." I could see how much he wanted to do this but was willing to stop for me. I smiled at how caring he was of my feelings.

"I'm a 1000 sure." He smiled as he kissed me again. We then made love for the first time both exhausted after. I lay my head on his chest as he kept his hand protectively around my waist.

"I love you so much." He said as he kissed my head.

"I love you too." I smiled turning around to kiss him. He reached over to his left hand, which was wrapped around my waist and slipped of his ring.

"I want you to wear my ring. I love you and one day I am going to marry you so will you wear it?" I felt tears come to my eyes as I nodded. He slid the ring on my finger as I kissed him again.

End Flashback

I looked down at the ring on my finger and smiled. I suddenly felt someone sit down beside me.

"Hey what are you doing over here? You should be celebrating with us." Troy said as he wrapped his arm around my shoulder.

"I was just remembering things that have happened over the last few years." I told him as he kissed the top of my head.

"Scary how quick it's gone?" he asked.

"Yeah. Come on like you said I should be out there celebrating with all of you." He smiled as we stood up linking hands and walked over to our friends.

"You ok Gabi?" Kelsi asked as I joined them.

"Yeah I was just thinking." They all smiled and nodded knowing exactly what about.

"Come on let's get out of her now we can go back to our place." Sharpay offered. We said goodbye to our parents before we started walking off.

"We're finally free of all the school chaos." Troy said as we walked away from the school causing us all to laugh. I smiled knowing that as long as we were all together and stuck together we would be fine.
