GABI'S POV
I walked down the halls, my mind filled with things running through it I mean I couldn't actually believe it, I didn't know where Chad and Taylor were I continued walking not having a clue where I was going just replaying the same conversation again again in my head.
"What the hell?" Taylor pronounced as Chad dagged us in the classroom.
"Just listen, it's important especially to you Gabs." I just looked dumbfounded, what did he mean me? Whatever it was it was sure scaring the hell out of me...
"Well theres two things actually but I figured one was more important than the other right now. Now don't be mad please, don't be mad at Taylor she just told me cause I literally forced it out of her, plus she was looking out for you." I looked at Taylor who looked as confused as I am before looking at Chad motioning for him to continue. "Well I know about Greg, your br-other." That just made my eyes go wide and stare at Taylor in disbelief. "But that's not it, well it is. Well there's no easy way to say this but. Greg's escaped." That was the last thing I heard before storming out of the classroom with tears coming out of my eyes. I didn't know what was worse, that Taylor had told Chad or that Greg, Greg had escaped.
So lost in my thoughts I didn't recognise the classroom I came upon and took a deep breath before turning the door handle. As i walked in I noticed everyone's eyes on me, many filled with concern as I quickly tried to wipe the tears from my eyes as I scurried to my seat.
"Ms.Montez?" I looked up to see Miss Darbus looking upon me concerningly. "See me at the end please." I just nodded before putting my head on the table ignoring all the calls from Taylor behind me and just lay there. As i looked around I saw Troy's eyes on me, looking into them I tried to make out what he was saying. Wait. All i could see was guilt? Happiness? and Concern? What the hell? I shook my thoughts until the bell went. As soon as it did I hurried out ignoring Ms calling after me and literally ran to the only place I felt like going to now, the only place I knew I could be alone. Strange but alone.
As I entered the toilets I hurried into a cubicle and slammed the door shut and just sat there crying, I mean what else could i do? Who could I talk to now? I heard the bathroom door close and heard Taylor call out to me.
"Gabs I know your here. Please just let me talk to you, I'm sorry just let me explain."
"What so you can go and report back to Chad? I thought I could trust you."
"You can just please Gabs. You know me too well to know you can trust me, just let me explain then you can say what you want...Please?" I slowly opened up the door and Taylor pulled me into a hug before I pulled away and walked over to the sink to wash my face.
"5 Minutes." I told Taylor before we both sat down and I don't know how long had gone by now, around 15 minutes. She explained that Chad's dad's in the police force and last night he came home and was speaking about someone at the prison who had escaped and told them the story, obviously no personal details. But Taylor had let slip that something of my past has something to do with prison and i don't know what but something got Chad to think of it and apparently came asking Taylor saying how it's better for Gabi if she knows, but i need to know for her to know, I was just nodding along still in shock.
"So yeah" Taylor said as she finished the story, "Look Gabs, I know really it's not an exuse but i just really wanted you to know that, I was doing it to help you. I'm sorry" I just nodded meakily.
"It-s oka-y." I mumbled out, as she opened her arms for a hug as we both laughed hugging.
"So you feeling okay?" Tayor asked as we pulled back.
"Yeah, sorta I just I dunno I mean he's escaped, that means he could be anywhere? I just can't help thinking he's gonna come after me."
"Why woul-" Stopping mid sentence Taylor realised why he would, I mean I was the one who got the ambulance to help him. I kept him alive, which means I basically sent him off to prison.
"Exactly." I said, we both talked a little more about it before agreeing that we weren't gonna talk about him today as I knew that would make me feel even worse and agreed to keep this to ourselves and get off to next lesson as we knew we'd be getting into more trouble. As we were getting up I realised.
"Wait, wasn't there two things?"
"What do you mean?" Taylor asked as we walked out of the toilets.
"Well Chad said, theres two things but he figured one was more important than the other right now. So what was the other?" Taylor looked as baffled as I did. We both just walked onto our next lesson, luckily we arrived as the bell signaling free period went. As we sat down talking about random things I didn't notice Troy walk in, I forgot he was in this lesson. I turned to see him looking at me as a questioning look.
"What?" I asked him, in a polite way. I think.
"N-o-thing." He stummbled out before turning around in him seat I shook it off as the lesson began. As the lesson ended I walked into the Cafeteria with Taylor both on the search for Chad. We noticed him on the table, but no Sharpay? No Troy? As I noticed them both not there I didn't even want to know what they were doing.
"Heey, You okay...Gabs?" Chad asked as we sat at the table with Taylor taking her seat by her boyfriend.
"Yeaah, were fine. No worries. But..There is something I wanted to ask you..."
"Oh God!" Chad said as we all laughed.
"No, nothing bad. Well i hope it's not. What was the other thing, I mean you said there were two things you needed to tell me...Whats the other?" Before he could answer a big screech was heard as everyones eyes turned to the entrance of the Cafeteria. We saw Sharpay march in and drop herself, too her seat.
"Are you okay Shar?" I asked carefully.
"Am I okay? Course I'm feeling great as my boyfriends just dumped me!" She exclaimed my eyes widened as she said it.
"Wha--t? Troy actually said that?" Kelsi asked.
"As good as."
"Well what did he exactly say?" Martha asked.
"That he thinks we need to take a break, he needs to think things thr-oughh" She choked out before bursting into tears. Everyone went to comfort her, but i couldn't I was in shock. I looked over to Chad who gave me a look, that was it. That was what he wanted to tell me.
"What did I do wrong?" Sharpay choked out sitting there I couldn't help but feel guilty.
"Nothing Shar, he's probably just stressed about his basketballa and stuff, you know he loves you!" Martha said whilst pulling her in for a hug. Sharpay then rose her head and wiped the tears.
"Yeaah. I mean he loves me. He wouldn't break up with me, he just wants a break. A little time...to himself." She said trying to convince herself more like. I just nodded and gave her a comforting smile. But wait, what did this mean? I couldn't think straight I just knew I needed to speak to Troy.
I stood up and quickly walked out of the Cafeteria despite Taylor calling me back. I knew exactly where I was going, I knew exactly where he'd be. Walking up the steps I saw him there, his head in his hands. He looked up seeing me and a big grin spread on his face.
"Gabs?"
"Hey." I replied softly before walking to the railings. "What happend today? In homeroom." I looked down knowing what he was talking about.
"I don't really wanna talk about that now." I said quietly looking in the other direction.
"Please Gabriella, talk to me." I just sighed and kept looking away mumbling a nothing.
"Gabi? Let me in Please? Talk to me." Gabriella snapped at this she couldn't take it any more, first Greg, now Troy. I mean it was like I was his toy, I can tell him how much I love him, he doesn't say anything and then goes and breaks it off with his girlfriend.
"Talk to me? FUKING Talk to me?! I'm sorry I missed out the bit of you caring when you first FUCKED ME BEHIND YOUR GIRLFRIENDS BACK AND MADE SURE I KEPT IT A SECRET!!"
"Just cause we were a secret DOESN'T MEAN I DIDN'T CARE."
"Oh really, well how come when SOMEONE SAYS I LOVE YOU, IF YOU ACTUALLY CARE YOU COULD AT LEAST SAY SOMETHING BACK." Gabriella scoffed and began to walk away only to be pulled back by Troy.
"God DAMMIT GABRIELLA DO YOU NOT GET IT?...I LOVE YOU. OKAY THERE I SAID IT...I LOVE YOU GABRIELLA ANNE MONTEZ." Gabriella was speechless.
"B-u--t W h---y I me-a- ?"
"Why didn't I TELL YOU? I DIDN'T TELL YOU CAUSE I WAS SCARED OKAY. SCARED CAUSE I KNEW I LOVED YOU BUT...I couldn't do anythin--g." Troy choked out getting quieter I just looked questioning still feeling the anger inside of me.
"Because of ME okay." Troy said walking away to a bench only to be followed by Gabriella. "I knew I couldn't break it off with Sharpay I knew I would just end up hurting you more."
"But..I said I love you...Without saying anything you don't know how much you hurt me Troy. Do you wanna know how i felt? How i feel? Like a dirty little slappe-"
"NO! Your nothing anything, like that Gabriella. Your the most sweet, considerate, beautiful, generous, funny, lovely girl anyone could wish for."
"But that's just not enough is it." Gabriella stated walking away.
"It's more than enough" Troy said grabbing her hand.
"Troy I cann-t" I broke out realising how close we were.
"Why? You love me. I love you."
"But--tt?" I tried protesting knowing that although he was on a break with Sharpay it still was wrong, she loved him and thought he was in love with her, but was he? I mean he said on a break not break-up. What was this? Some sort of thing to keep me sweet? He silenced me with his lips, as he kissed me I pulled away abruptly he looked at me confused as I could feel the tears falling again. He stepped foward to wipe them off I just backed away.
"I can't do this anymore Troy. I mean it, it's over." And with that I ran down the steps as fast as I could turning back I saw Troy running after me. As i turned back not looking where I was going, I bumped into someone.
Looking up my eyes went wide, Taylor, Chad, Martha, Kelsi and...Sharpay all staring at me, with my tears still falling.
"You Oka-" Taylor asked stopping when she saw Troy running and catching up with me but stopping looking around. Sharpay looked confused as she saw Troy with tears in his eyes.
"I--er-" I stummbled out.
"What the hell Troy!" Sharpay exclaimed I just looked down trying to fight back the tears before my head shot up at what Sharpay said next...
"Gabriella comes to talk some sense into you and you make her cry!!"
A.N// I know I left it again..on a cliffhanger it's just I wanna know what you would like to happen next. So what do you think Troy will say? Gabriella?...Sharpay?...
