Author's Note: How come that everytime I do a Troyella, it ends up being...well...corny? Haha, maybe that's why I'm sticking to Rylies and Zekepays...anyways, I'm doing first kisses and kisses that have happened, so they aren't really "first" kisses. For example, this chapter. Anyways, here's chapter two! Enjoy, and happy reading!

Chapter Two: Memories

For Gabriella Montez, her first kiss was given to her by Troy Bolton after they sang "Breaking Free".

For Troy Bolton, his first kiss happened to be with Gabriella while the sprinklers were going, and the gang was coming outside to celebrate the night after the talent show during the summer of junior year.

To say the least, they each had their own memory of what their first kiss was like, but sometimes they'd fight about each other's memory.

It was a Thursday night, and Troy was helping Gabriella study for a science test Friday, and Gabriella got on the subject of first kisses.

"When was your first kiss, Troy?" she asked, and Troy looked up from the notebook he was holding.

"I told you: it was during the summer of junior year, and the sprinklers come on..."

He looked at her, confused.

"Why?"

"I was just wondering." Gabriella stated, and Troy gave her a smile.

"Come on, Gabby. Not this again."

"Troy, face it: your first kiss wasn't with me."

"Of course it was!"

"No, it wasn't."

The sandy-haired boy sighed as he leaned back into the chair, while still holding on to the notebook.

"Any girl I kissed didn't match up to you. My dad always told me your first kiss is suppose to be with someone you truely care about." Troy explained, looking at her, and Gabriella gave him a half-smile.

"Maybe."

"Why did you say maybe? It's true!"

Gabriella looked down at the desk she was sitting at to avoid his gaze.

"While it may be true, you could be saying that about all the girls you kissed, Troy."

"I never felt a spark when I kissed those other girls."

Gabriella couldn't help but to laugh at this statement.

"Oh, so you have to feel something in order to kiss a girl? I never read that in any of my books."

Troy blushed as he ran a hand through his hair.

"Well, you know what I mean. There has to be chemistery between the two." Troy pointed out.

Gabriella raised an eyebrow.

"Wow, someone must have been doing their homework!" she said playfully, and Troy grinned in her direction.

"I didn't study. I just know these things." Troy told her, and Gabriella glanced at him.

"Sure. Let's get back to studying science, alright?" she asked, but she knew Troy wouldn't let go of the subject that easily.

"No. I still want to talk about first kisses."

"Troy, the test is tomorrow! Do you want to fail?" Gabriella asked, and Troy gave her another smile.

"Maybe, maybe I don't."

"I think you do want to fail..." she explained, and Troy shook his head.

"I'm not serious about the basketball team as everyone says I am. I'm not that obsessed like Chad."

Yes, Troy liked basketball, and yes, he was the Wildcats basketball captain.

But, he wasn't that obsessed with basketball: everyone just thinks he is because of his father, Jack Bolton.

"If you don't get a C+ or higher on this test, your father will likely get mad." Gabriella commented, and Troy looked at her.

"So? That doesn't--"

"If you don't do good on this test, I won't be your tutor for math anymore."

She knew Troy and math didn't mix: once, when they were baby-sitting Lilly, they were showing her how to do alegbra, but Troy couldn't do it.

"You wouldn't dare quit on me...would you?" Troy asked, and Gabriella smiled at him.

"I could if you promise to do better on the science test tomorrow."

Troy raised an eyebrow at her, and returned her smile.

"Sounds fair."

"Good, then. It's a deal?"

She stuck out her hand for Troy to shake, but instead, he grabbed her hand, and that sent her flying towards him.

"Deal." he whispered in her ear, and just for the spite of it, kissed her on the cheek before they pulled away, and they sat up straight again.

"Ready to pay attention?" Gabriella asked, and Troy looked at her.

"Well, with you right in front of me, how can I?"

Gabriella rolled her eyes at him.

"Stop being dumb Troy."

"I'm not being dumb! I can't pay attention because your always in my way of thinking."

Gabriella grinned at his statement.

"Oh, really? Then I should move."

She started to get up, and Troy looked at her.

"You know I'm just joking!" Troy stated as she sat on the bed.

"Yes, but if you want some thinking place, I'll be here." Gabriella told him, and Troy rolled his eyes at her.

"Gabriella--"

"Troy, just study."

They studied for a few minutes, and Gabriella could feel Troy's eyes on her.

"Yes, Troy?" she asked, looking up.

"I was just wondering if you could help me with this one question..."

"You should have it in front of you, Troy. There's no reason for me to come over there. Your just going to get distracted."

"I will not get distracted." Troy stated, and Gabriella sighed as she went over to help Troy.

"What's the problem?" she asked, sitting down, and Troy smiled.

"Science is not my problem. It's you that's my problem."

Gabriella looked at Troy, and she returned his smile.

"Where did you learn that line? A Tom Cruise movie?" she asked, and Troy chuckled as he leaned in to give her a kiss on the lips.

"No...it's just a pick-up line I taught myself." he told her, and Gabriella smiled as she got up, and closed her notebook.

"It's getting late...I should be heading home." she explained, and Troy nodded, getting up as well, and joining her to walk her to the front door.

"Well, I really had a fun time." Troy reported, and Gabriella laughed.

"Troy, all you did was goof off! How are you suppose to pass tomorrow?"

Troy chuckled, and leaned down to give her another kiss on the lips.

"Your my good luck charm, that's why. I can pass the test with flying colors if you are in the room."

Gabriella slightly blushed at the compliment, and she smiled at him.

"Thanks, Troy. I'll see you tomorrow."

"Yeah. See you tomorrow, Ms. Montez."
