A/n: Sorry I haven't updated for a million years. It's going to be Troy's view now, because Gabriella is unconscious.

Sadness. Troy looked around the small hospital waiting room, and he saw sadness in every corner. Chad and Taylor were gloomily talking about how terrible the accident had been. Kelsi was writing some lyrics to a sad song. Ryan sat reading a chapter book that Gabriella had given him months ago. Sharpay was sobbing onto Zeke's shoulder, while he was trying to assure her it would be okay.

"It's all my fault!" Sharpay cried, "I'm the reason she got hit! If I wouldn't have lied to her, Gabriella wouldn't be lying there unconscious!"

She sobbed even more into Zeke's shoulder.

Troy folded his hands and stared down at his feet. When he had first heard of this devastating news, he was shocked. He couldn't think at all. When he finally came back to his senses, Troy realized that his one true love was fighting death while in an unconscious state. Troy didn't even say he didn't want to be with Gabriella. Sharpay lied. If she did wake up from her coma, she would be paralyzed from the waist down. He couldn't do anything about it, so he prayed. He could only hope she would open her beautiful brown eyes and see the world again. He could only hope that he could hear her laugh. He wished he could hear her voice ring out on a microphone, bringing a crowd to tears the minute they heard her soft, beautiful vocals.

Troy then heard the door open. Ms. Montez walked out of the room with a tear streaked face. She silently sat down in a seat next to Troy.

"How could people be so cruel? How can they just laugh at my little Gabi, when all she ever would do to them was smile and be the best person she could be? How could anybody do that?" Ms. Montez asked to no one in particular. "My sensitive Gabriella just let them ridicule her! They made fun of her just because she had a bad condition! Why?! Gabriella's the nicest girl I've ever seen! And a drunk driver just rammed into her! The exact same way her father died!"

Ms. Montez was sobbing into her hands when a tall nurse walked into the doorway. "We can have another visitor see Gabriella Montez," she said, whilst glancing at the sobbing Ms. Montez.

"Troy," said Taylor, "Why don't you go first?"

Troy got out of his seat and walked down the bright hallway until he got to room 214. He took a deep breath and opened the heavy hospital door. Troy stepped into the room and immediately saw Gabriella lying there with her eyes closed and many machines hooked up to her.

Troy sat down in a chair next to her and stared at her. There were bruises and cuts all over her body. There she was, lying motionless. Troy took held her hand.

"Gabi," said Troy, "I...I don't know what to say. You have always made me feel special, like I'm not just the 'basketball guy.' You...you pretty much broke East High's cliques down and made everyone become friends. Gabriella, you helped me realize something I really love to do. You are amazing, and I can't stand to lose you. Please, please wake up!" Troy paused, "Gabriella! Please!"

Nothing happened. The room was silent, except for the beeping of the machine showing Gabriella's heart activity.

Beeep! Beeep! Beeep!

"Gabi," continued Troy, "I need you. I love everything about you. I really do love you."

Beeeeeep! Beeeeeep! Beeeeeeep!

"Gabriella! Please don't die!" screamed Troy, tears falling down his sad face.

Still, the beeps kept getting longer.

Beeeeeeeeeep! Beeeeeeeeeep!

Troy couldn't do anything, so he sang.

"We're soaring, flying. There's not a star in Heaven that we can't reach. If we're trying, so we're breaking free."

Troy paused.

Beeeep! Beeeep! Beeeep!

On realizing her beeps were getting shorter, her continued.

"You know the world can see us. In a way that's different than who we are. Creating space between us, till we're separate hearts."

Beeep! Beeep! Beeep!

"But your faith, it gives me strength, strength to believe. We're soaring! Flying! There's not a star in Heaven that we can't reach!"

Beeeeeeeep! Beeeeeeeep!

"Gabi," whispered Troy, "please don't die. I need you."

Troy didn't know how to call a doctor into a room. Then, he saw a little red button with a small speaker next to it.

"Doctor! I need a doctor! Someone! Gabriella's dying!" sobbed Troy into the assistance speaker.

Beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep! Beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep! Beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep!

The line on the heart rate machine went straight. Gabriella was dead.

"I love you, Gabriella." said Troy softly. He held onto her hand until a doctor finally came into the hospital room.
