Okay so I completely forgot about my 100th reviewer!! Which turned out to be one of my very good friends xxZanessaxx. She's awesome and for some reason it just hit me that I never mentioned it. I hope you like this chapter.

Trevor and I met up outside the school. I decided to not tell him about what I heard so we just went straight home. "Hey do you want to go out tomorrow night?"
"Sure," I said looking over at him. He was cute but just not as cute as…wait a minute, I am not having second thoughts about dating him. No, Troy doesn't want me anymore, just get over it and forget.
"Brie?" Trevor said.
"Gabi," I snapped. "Not Brie."
"Sorry," He said. "Troy just used to call you that so I thought." Now I feel bad, I didn't mean to snap at him that name is just…
"I'm sorry Trevor," I said. "It's just that Troy started calling me that three years ago and now that name just always reminds me of him and plus, I kind of swore that only he could call me that."
"It's okay," He said. "I understand, he'll always be a part of your past."
"I hate to break it to you but he's going to be a part of my future too," I said not trying to make him bad but it was only fair for him to know. "Please don't me mad that I told you that."
"I'm trying not to be, give me a good reason and I won't be," He said.
"My parents are best friends with his parents," I said. "there's no way he won't be apart of my life unless a giant feud starts up." He sighed and nodded. "So you're not mad at me?"
"No, I'm not mad at you," He said. "You should probably get going, your mom will be worried." My mom was gone, and I told him that. Instead of telling him that I just got out of the car and waited for a second but never didn't get out, he just drove away.
The next day Trevor walked up to me during free period looking kind of angry. No one was in the gym today so it was only us.
"Gabriella," He said. Whenever someone used my whole name it must me bad. "Can I talk to you?"
"Yeah sure, anything wrong?" We sat on the bleachers.
"I just overheard the gang talking and you want to know what they were saying?" He asked.
"Why, is it something bad about me, or someone else?"
"Just listen," He said pulling out his phone. "Zeke told me that Chad was looking for me, something about basketball. But I ended up hearing this." He pressed play and put it on speaker.
"So do you think Gabi was serious about just having Trevor as a rebound boyfriend?" Taylor asked.
"Oh yeah she said it herself," Chad said. "But why in the world would she do that?"
"Because she's depressed," Martha said. "But man it's only been like a week ince they started going out."
"Well Trevor can't find out, hopefully she's going to tell him soon," Ryan said. "I feel kind of bad for him and her."
"We better go." Emily said.
He pressed the stop button and looked at me. Waiting. "I never said that," I said. "I would never say that you are my rebound boyfriend because you're not."
"Well then why were they saying that," he asked. "Look Gabi I'm not sure about this anymore."
"What? Trevor you know that I would never do that to someone," I said. "Why would you even think that?"
"Because Troy and then I hear this. Look I don't know what I should believe anymore. We're over Gabriella." He stood up and walked out of the gym. I sat there and looked at the door shocked. A couple tears ran down my face as I sat there but I kept the rest in for later.
Everything ran through my head, me hearing the conversation yesterday, then him hearing a conversation that wasn't even true today and it all came down to one thing. My stupid friends!!
In drama Taylor sat next to me but I just ignored her, I had to figure out how I was going to handle all of this. Thank god it was the weekend tomorrow. Luckily we weren't doing anything in drama, she wasn't even talking. But Darbus had given us a worksheet and three people detention so far.
"Gabi," Taylor whispered. "Gabriella Anne Montez answer me!"
"Why should I," I asked hastily.
"What's wrong? Did I do something?"
"Not just you, but Chad, Kelsi, Zeke, Jason, Emily, and Ryan, tell me if I forgot anyone," I said. "Just leave me alone for the rest of the day." She looked at me strangely but turned back to face the front.
Apparently I take a long time to get everything from my locker because they had time to gather and bombard me right when I walked out the front doors. They pulled me over to the side and sat me down looking at me.
"What are you doing," I asked.
"You won't talk to any of us," Chad said. "Come on Gabs, what's wrong?"
"Oh I don't know maybe the fact that Trevor broke up with me because he heard you talking about how I said that he was my rebound boyfriend which I never said," I said looking at them. They all looked down guilty as I stared at them. "Why would you do that?"
"He wasn't right for you Gabi," Zeke said.
"Everyone could see it, you two are supposed to be just friends and nothing more," Ryan added. "Everyone but you two."
"I really liked him," I said. "I really really liked him and I was moving on from Troy. Okay, he wasn't my rebound boyfriend, he was the guy that I really like. And now that he broke up with me and I have to see him tomorrow to work on that stupid project what's going to happen. It'll be so much fun working with two of my ex-boyfriends."
"Look we're sorry Gabi but we just had to do something, he wasn't treating you like you should be treating you," Taylor said.
"Look, I just have to let this sink in. I'll see you later, maybe." I got up and pushed past them walking away. Five minutes later I realized that I didn't have a ride home because Trevor was supposed to be my ride home.
"Hey." I jumped and turned around. "You need a ride?"
"Yeah thanks Troy. I was supposed to be going home with Trevor but guess what! He dumped me!" We climbed into his car but didn't drive anywhere.
"He broke up with you," He asked after five minutes of silence. I nodded. "Why?"
"Heard the guys talking about how I said he was my rebound boyfriend which I never actually said. I really liked him and now I'm not talking to any of the guys because I'm so mad at them."
"I'm really sorry Gabriella," He said starting the car and pulling out. "What are you going to do about tomorrow?"
"I honestly don't know. I'm partnered up with two of my ex boyfriends," I said. He pulled up to his driveway and got out quickly. Before I even touched the door he was around the car and opening the door. "Thanks Troy. I'll see you tomorrow."
"Hey Gabriella," He called. I turned around and looked at him. "It was his loss." I nodded and turned around walking towards my front door. The whole way there I could feel his eyes on me, just watching. Right as I was about to close the door I heard him again. "And mine." He sighed. "God I am so stupid!" I heard him kick his car before running into the house.
And once again I was sitting on the couch with Ben and Jerry's Cake Batter ice cream in front of me watching whatever was on, just not the news. But this time I didn't have Taylor with me, because she's the reason I'm doing this.
I did the same thing on Friday with more ice cream because I had more time. The rest of that week had been painful, I hadn't talked to anyone unless it was needed and being partnered with them didn't help.
Saturday morning I woke up on the couch with a melted tub of ice cream sitting on the table. I looked around and realized that I hadn't spilled or broken anything the night before. I do remember calling Trevor at two in the morning and yelling at him, who knew you could get drunk on ice cream.
There was a knock on the door so I stood up to go and get it. "Hello," I asked not actually looking at the person.
"Gabriella?" My head shot up. "Are you okay?"
"Come on in Troy, you're early," I said letting him in. "Don't lok at the mess," I added as we walked back the living room and towards the kitchen.
"What happened last night?"
"Um… I remember eating loads of ice cream and watching TV and crying a little. And then calling Trevor in the middle of the night and yelling at him. And I think that's it," I said.
"Wow, um Trevor's going to be here any minutes so why don't you go and get changed and I'll let him in," He said. I just nodded and walked up the stairs wanting a nice hot shower.
Okay please review!!
