Chapter 7

- Sharpay and Ryan were accomplishing their goal. Gabriela was feeling a little jealaous because troy and sharpay was getting every minute closer, but she didn't want to express her feelings, and that were consuming her. The days and the rehearsal just kept passing by. And Gabriela was feeling everyday worse and worse

A Week Later

High School

- Gabriela was at her locker and troy from behind covers her eyes

troy: guess who?
Gabriela: troy, im not in the mood
troy: what's wrong?
Gabriela: nothing, im just tired
troy: we don't have to stay after school, why don't we go somewhere
Gabriela: really? Aren't you busy with sharpay?
Troy: sharpay? why would I be busy with her?
Gabriela: Im sorry, yeah id loves to do something
troy. Hey, what's going on, why are you so weird?
Gabriela: its nothing, as I told you im just tired
troy: oh (doubting) so... after school?
Gabriela: sure

- The school day ends

sharpay: troy, hi, I was thinking that we could go and practice the musical, what do you think?
Troy: no, I cant today, sorry
sharpay: but... you should come with me, I mean the whole drama club is gonna get together, Gabriela probably will be there come on
troy. Gabriela?, no I don't think so, we were going to do something today
sharpay: this meeting was organized yesterday, no one can miss, I guess someone told Gabriela about it
troy: are you sure, because...
sharpay: yes im sure, come on, we are gonna be late
troy: ook, but...
sharpay: lets go!

- In the meantime, Gabriela is waiting for troy

Gabriela: where is troy, we should have been here 15 minutes ago

- Gabriela waits but troy never shows up, so she decides to go, but this time a little angry and sad. But what makes her even more sad and angry is that she sees troy in the class room with sharpay and the other guys from the drama club. She leaves with some tears in her face

troy: sharpay where is Gabriela, we've been here like 20 minutes
sharpay: I don't know, she should be here, I don't know what happened
troy: im gonna look for her
sharpay: no wait...
troy: I have to go

- Troy leaves and try to find Gabriela, but its too late, she had already left. Troy comes back to the class room

troy: sharpay, why did you tell me that she was gonna be here?
Sharpay: I don't know why she didn't come, I mean Ryan left everyone a note letting them know about this meeting
troy. (To Ryan) is that true?
Ryan: umm... yes
sharpay: maybe she didn't find it, or probably Ryan put it in the wrong locker
troy: I gotta go

- Troy leaves convinced that everything was a misunderstood situation but...

Ryan: sharpay, your a genius
sharpay: thank you I know, so what you're going to do now is put those notes in Gabriela's and troy's locker so tomorrow, if they are doubting of our honesty they'll find those notes and they'll believe us
Ryan: you are really smart sister
sharpay: I know

Gabriela's House

- Troy goes to find out what happened to Gabriela. He knocks the door and Mrs Montez opens the door

troy: good morning Mrs Montez, im looking for Gabriela, is she here?
Gabriela: no, im sorry, she came like an hour ago, but she left, she at a friend's house
troy: could you tell her that I came
Mrs Montez: sure, troy right?
Troy: yes, thank you

- Troy leaves and feels kind of worried about what Gabriela might be thinking right now

Taylor House

Taylor: so he never showed up?
Gabriela: no, and then I saw him in the classroom with sharpay
Taylor: I don't get it, I mean if he told you he wanted to hang out why did he stay with sharpay
Gabriela: trust me, im asking myself the same question, I don't know what to think. Do you think him...
Taylor: troy? No... Well I don't know... he doesnt seem like a guy able to cheat on someone
Gabriela: he has been spending much more time with sharpay than with me
Taylor: but have you talked to him. I mean troy is crazy about you
Gabriela: I haven't, but its because I don't want him to feel like im keeping an eye on him
Taylor: you got to talk to him, you've been all sad these days I've felt it
Gabriela: I don't know

- In that moment Gabriela's cell phone start to ring

Gabriela: its troy
Taylor: then answer him
Gabriela: no. I don't want to, at least not today
Taylor: ok, but then, what are you going to do
Gabriela: I don't know

- The cell phone rings again

Gabriela: he left a message it says "where are you, I couldn't find you at school"
Taylor: I guess hell find out eventually that you are here
Gabriela: I don't care, I wont talk to him today
Taylor. You can stay here tonight if you want
Gabriela: that would be great, I don't want to be alone today

- Gabriela slept over at Taylor's house. Troy kept trying to reach Gabriela but she never answered the phone. And the next day came
