PREVIOUSLY ON RAGS AND RICHES:

Gabriella dragged herself out of bed and found Andrew reading in his study. She cleared her throat to get his attention and a asked" Where is troy?" she asked trying not to sound to eager . He looked up from his book and said" Oh I'm sorry Gabriella he's gone..."

when she heard this her eyes went wide and she started hyperventilating then she screamed really loud. (a/n: like the way Sharpay screams when the nachos fall on her )

"WHAT?!?" "He's gone?!?" "where is he?" "why did he leave?" "Is he okay?" she asked so many questions at once it's a miracle Andrew understood her.

"whoa Gabriella chill!Take a deep breath. In. Out. In. Out." he said as she willingly obeyed

"He's going to spend the rest of his long weekend (A/N: the long weekend is 4 days he only came home for the wedding sry if i forgot to mention it. He was going to stay for the four days but decided to only stay for like 1 and a half) at his college. I'm not sure why he left, but he was muttering something about an argument and something about going to hell." This comment made Gabriella blush lightly but Andrew didn't seem to notice. "I tried asking what was wrong..." Andrew continued with what he was saying " but he just shook his head and said it was nothing and that he just had a lot on his mind. He said since most students went home for the long weekend the campus would be a nice quiet place to think and gather his thoughts" he said

"oh" Gabriella replied simply what more was there to say ? Nothing.

The after a few minutes of silence Andrew spoke "So now that I have answered all of your questions it's time to answer mine." um k, shoot" said Gabriella unsure of what he was going to say.

"Okay here it goes, why the sudden interest in my brother and knowing things like if he lest and why?" he said with a look on his face that said ' I know something you don't know' but lucky for him Gabriella didn't notice.

" oh, well ... um, uh..." she wasn't expecting that question. " um ... uh ... you see that's a really simple answer ...ha ha ha ( she laughed nervously)... you see I just wanted to see if he was here that way I would know how many um... you know ... pancakes to make for breakfast" " yeah that's it I wasn't sure weather to make 3 or 4." " right" was all Andrew could say in a very sarcastic tone. She knew he didn't believe her heck she didn't even believe herself but Andrew let it slide. "Okay um yeah you just have to make 3 or you could make one for yourself and join us if you'd like? " um Tokay" she answered and hurried off.

Andrew's POV

Unbeknown to Troy and Gabriella someone had been watching them the day they meet at the wedding.'what do they think I am stupid? I was watching there movements carefully. I noticed a certain twinkle in Gabriella's eyes,one that she had lost a few years back when her dad died and again a few months back when her mom died. Troy had a certain spark in his voice when he talked to her, he actually seemed... happy. Troy always acted like he was happy but I could see through this phony act of his. I knew deep down Troy was sad no worse then sad depressed. But i let him be I knew if he needed to talk to me about it he knew where to find me.'

Gabriella's POV I was walking down the hall when the phone rang I picked it up

No one's POV

G Gabriella

TTROY

AANDREW

G: Hello, Bolton residence

T: Hi this is Troy

G: Oh hey Troy

T:Um hello? May I ask who's speaking

Gabriella hesitated not sure if she should say who he was incase he would get mad at her for yelling at him the other day.

T: Hello is anyone there?

G:Oh yeah sorry . Oh what did you just ask?

T:um who is this?

G:oh right this is Gabriella the - ...

T:oh yeah the maid great! He said sarcastically

T: um is Andrew there?

G: yeah hold on let me get him hold on!

Gabriella put the phone down but Troy could still hear the muffled sounds of someone yelling Andrew's name. He figured it was Gabriella's voice. Then he thought' hm maybe I should give her a second chance I mean she was having a pretty bad day' Troy was snapped out of his thought's when he heard Andrew's voice.

A: Hello Troy you there?

T:Oh yeah hey dude um I was wondering how you were and how Anne was?

A:I know that's not why you really called but I'll give you the answer anyways. I'm fine Anne's fine. I'm moving in with her next week and that's about it. Then he laughed a little

T: what's so funny?

A: oh you wouldn't believe who asked for you?

T: who?

A:Gabriella, you know the maid.

T:Oh that's great what ever man.

A:woah dude what's wrong did she do something?

T: well yeah kinda, well the night at the reception party she ran out crying and I ran after her because I wanted to know what was wrong. So I knocked on the door and she kept telling me to go away until she finally exploded and told me to go to hell! I was pissed so I just walked away.

A: woah dude (a/n: ha ha i think woah dude is like Andrew's catch phrase ha ha lol okay w/e now back to the story)you didn't at least stay to comfort her? I mean she;s been through a lot her mom Just died like 2 months ago. Give her a break. Cut her some slack.

T:I know but that still doesn't give her the right to say that to me especially since I was trying to be nice to her.

A: um k what ever dude it's your problem

T: I know that's why I'm going to give her a second chance I'm willing to start over if she is.

A: k see that's what i mean we want peace not war

T: k anyways I was wondering, I know I'm coming back in to weeks for spring break . So I was wondering if I could bring my girlfriend?

A: GIRLFRIEND!?! Andrew yelled so that the whole world could hear. This made Gabriella look up from what she was doing and think' GIRLFRIEND he has a girlfriend ?!? why did he have to have a girlfriend?!? wait Gabriella what are you saying you don't like him his family is making your life hell. You have to hate him even though he has the most beautiful ocean blue eyes you have ever seen. Wait no Gabriella snap out of it!' she shook her head to get the thoughts out of her head. Little did she know Andrew was having a mental fight of his own.'Girlfriend but i thought he like Gabriella? Oh I'm so confused now this ruins there chances to be together. Crap!o will this should be one interesting hell of a week'

Woah I think this is like the longest chapter I have written. I hope you liked this chapter It was really fun writing because Gabriella starts to have feeling for Troy even if she doesn't realize it! Ha ha! Anyways R&R! -kiki
