It is now Saturday. I wake up to 'Love Like This' by Natasha Bedingfield. 'What was that coming from? Oh now I remember! It's my phone. Who would be calling so early in the morning? I look at the clock and it says10:30 in big red numbers. Well I guess it's not that early… I pick up my phone and answer it.

"Hello" I said while rubbing my eyes

"Hey beautiful" said a familiar voice

"Hey Troy, What's up?"

"Nothing, just wondering if you are going to Shar's."

"Yup. Are you?"

"Yeah. Want me to pick you up?"

"Sure." I said while playing with my hair

"Okay, I'll pick you up in 10."

"Kay, Bye Troy, Love you."

"Love you too."

We hang up and I go get ready. I jump in the shower and let the hot water wash over my body. I slip on a pair of skinny jeans, a Hollister T-shirt and a pair of black flats. I walk down the stairs to the kitchen hoping to find my mom, but she already left for work, no surprise there. I grab a bowl and a spoon and get the cereal out. I finish eating and put the bowl in the sink. I was just about to go to the living room to watch TV but, the doorbell rings. Troy must be early.

I walk up to the door and answer it. I was greeted by a soft kiss on my lips.

"Hello Troy, you're early." I said with my arms around his neck.

"Not happy to see me?" he said with a fake sad voice

"No I'm happy." I kissed him to reassure him.

"Okay, well let's go." He grabbed my hand and we ended up at his car. He opened the door for me and I smile.

"Thank you."

"No problem beautiful." He said with his million dollar smile. All I can do is giggle.

We ended up at Sharpay and Ryan's house 5 minutes later since they only live 5 minutes away from me. We were greeted by Sharpay.

"Hey Gabi, Troy." She said while she hugged me.

"Hey Shar." Troy and I both said in unison.

We walked into the very large house and were greeted by the others.

"Hey you guys." I said with a wave.

"Hey Gabs. Hey Troy" They said together. Minus Shar and a girl I do not know. I think she's Ryan's new girlfriend.

"I want you guys to meet my new girlfriend, Sarah" Ryan said with an arm draped around her.

"Nice to meet you Sarah, I'm Gabriella but you can call me Gabi or Gabs. Whatever you like." I said with a smile.

"Yeah, and I'm Troy, Gabriella's boyfriend." He said as he put his arm around my waist.

"It's nice to meet you two." She said with a smile. Sarah is really pretty. She has light brown hair and was wearing a green tank top and jean Capri's. Supporting that she wore green flats to match her shirt.

"Now, Ryan doesn't have to be left out when we do couple things." I said with a laugh.

Sharpay laughs. "Haha! Yeah you're right Gabs. 'Everyone laughs'

"So what are we gonna do today?" Chad said while eating chips.

"I don't know. Up to you guys." Replied Sharpay

"Anyone up for skating?" said Taylor. Everyone replied

"Sure!"

So we were headed off to the rink. Troy drove with me, Taylor and Chad. Sharpay drove with Zeke, Jason and Kelsi and Ryan drove with only Sarah. The ride wasn't long. We talked, laughed and sang to the radio. Before we knew it we arrived at the rink. We got our skates and tied them up. Everyone headed off to the rink. I was pretty nervous since I don't skate much…well, actually none of the girls do.

"Troy, I'm scared." I said while holding onto the side of the wall in the rink.

"You'll be fine. I'm right beside you." He said while grabbing my hand. I looked into his eyes and saw pure sincerity. I nodded

"Okay." We skated for about an hour and we said that was enough. The whole time at skating I was with Troy holding his hand and whenever I would almost fall Troy would catch me. So I never hit the ice once. For the other girls… it wasn't like that at all…

"You didn't catch me Zeke!" said Sharpay rubbing her hip.

"You didn't catch me either Jason!" said Kelsi rubbing her back

"Neither did you Chad!" said Taylor rubbing her knee
"Neither did Ryan!" said Sarah rubbing her knee also. Everyone looked at me.

"What?" I said looking confused

"How come you never said anything about your boyfriend not catching you" said Sharpay with a confused voice.
"Because Troy caught me" I said with a grin

"WHAT?!" yelled the 4 girls in unison

"It's true. He was by my side the whole time and caught me every time I was about to fall." I said while looking at Troy with a smile and he smiled back.

"How come Troy catches Gabi, but the other boys don't catch us at all?!" said Taylor with a little anger in her voice while looking at Chad. The other girls agreed. The boys looked a little scared to me. Especially Chad. When Taylor gets mad, she's mad.

The boys all look at eachother scared. "Sorry girls" they all said together while looking down.

"Hmphh" the girls replied and walked out besides Gabi.

Everyone is outside now at their cars.

"I want a different seating plan. Troy, can we please come in your car?" said Sharpay

"I don't think I have enough room. Sorry girls. I can only fit 3 and there are 4 of you."

"It's okay Troy." Said Sarah. "I can go with Ryan."

"You girls don't want to go with your lovely boyfriends?" Asked Chad

The girls gave Chad a glare. "How are you guys lovely? You let your girlfriends fall and get hurt!" yelled Taylor. They were still all arguing. Even though this was very entertaining, I had to stop it. I stepped in between the girls' side and the boys' side.

"GUYS! STOP!" I yelled. They immediately stopped arguing. We got into our cars and drove off. Sharpay, Kelsi, Taylor in Troy's' car. Jason, Zeke and Chad in Sharpay's car. Zeke driving. And Ryan and Sarah in Ryan's car.

We got back to Sharpay and Ryan's house 20 minutes later. We parked our cars and went inside. Becky, Sharpay and Ryan's maid, got us drinks. We watched TV and after a few minutes, we got really bored.

"I'm sooo bored!" stated Jason.

"Ditto" Chad said

"What do you guys wanna do?" I said bored.

'I don't know" said Sharpay. "What is there to do?" she sighed.

"Hmmmm" Ryan said in his thinking pose with his hand up to his chin.

"Ohmygod!" I said excitedly

"What?" everyone said looking at me curious
"Let's go…SHOPPING!" I said with a grin.

"YEA!" replied all 4 girls. The guys moaned.

"Do we have to?" I heard Troy say

"Please Troysie?" I did my puppy dogs eyes. The girls followed me to do that to there boyfriends.
"NO WAY!" said Chad. And the boys agreed…except for one…

"Fine! I'll go." Said Troy giving in.

"Yay!" I said while clapping my hands. The thing Shar would do but she got me hooked on it.

"What?!" the guys said in unison.

"Sorry guys. I can't resist the face" he said and I kissed him.

"Your so weak Troy" said Chad folding his arms across his chest

"Okay, so I guess were shopping!" said Sharpay clapping her hands. See I told you she does that. She got me hooked.

We were at the mall 10 minutes later and we rushed into the mall, well the girls anyway.

We went into every clothing and shoe store we saw. Sharpay now had 4 bags on her. Taylor had 3, Kelsi had 3 and I had 4. Of course, the girls made the guys carry their bags but it wasn't like that with me and Troy. I held 2 bags and he held 2.

"My arms are tired" Chad said while whining. All the guys agreed except Troy.

"How come we have to hold all your bags, girls!?" asked Jason

"I don't" Troy said. Everyone turned to look at him. They saw that I was holding 2 bags and he was holding 2. I could see all the confused and jealous looks on the boys' faces. It was pretty funny looking.

"Lucky boy Troy, you have the nicest girlfriend here" Chad said that and got a hit in the arm from Taylor.

"Oww!" yelled Chad.

"Well were not as nice as Gabs here" said Sharpay. I laughed

"What's so funny?" asked Kelsi

"Nothing" I got stares from my friends. "Really!"

"Spill" said Sharpay

"Fine" I said. "It's just that, you guys said that Troy and I fight over little things…When we haven't fought all day and you guys have." Troy chuckles.

"She's right you guys." Troy said as he put his arm around me.
"I guess you guys are the perfect couple." Taylor said

We did more shopping and after about 2 hours, we went back to the Evans' household. Sharpay was looking around when she saw a light blue dress in my bag.

"What's that Gabs?" pointing at my bag.
"Which?" I pulled my dress out. "This?"

"Yeah. It's Beautiful."

"I bought it at the store we went to just before we left. Where you got your really nice baby pink top."

"Oh. I didn't even see you purchase anything."

"I purchased it when you were in the changing room. I didn't need to try it on, I knew it was perfect." I said smiling.
"Try it on" said Taylor.

"Okay" I got up and went to Sharpay's room. I put it on and looked in the mirror. It was stunning. It stopped above my knee and it was strapless. I walked downstairs and everyone turned their eyes to me. I smiled and Sharpay was the first to speak.

"Gabi! You look stunning!!!"

"Thanks Shar" I looked at Troy and he just stared at me.

"Troyyy…earth to Troy." I said while walking over to him.

"You look beautiful Brie, as always" He smiled and I blushed.

"You look great little sis." Chad said. Oh, I forgot to mention, Chad is like my older brother, actually, so are the other boys. But I'm closest to Chad.

"Thanks Chad" Troy walks over to me and lifts me in the air and kisses me. I giggle.

"Troy put me down!" I said while laughing

"Okay" he puts me down on the ground and puts his arms around me.

"I'm gonna change so I don't get this dress dirty before I even wear it out." I walk back upstairs and I can tell Troy was watching me. I giggle to myself. I got changed and walk back down with the bag in my hand. I set it down and walked back on the couch next to Troy. He put his arm around me and I lean against him. It was silent since no one knew what to say or do. We watched 'Family Guy' and we decided to go home. We said our good-byes and we left to our own homes. Troy drove me home and I invited him to come in. When I got in the house there was a note on the island in the kitchen. (a/n when I mean island I mean the counter in the middle of the kitchen.) The note was from my mom. It said:

Dear Gabi,

I had to go on a business trip to Europe. I will be back next week. Stay safe and I'm sorry I couldn't wait until you got back from Sharpay's. I will miss you.

Love,

Mama

She had to go onanother business trip. Argghhh!! I hate her job! She has to move around all the time.

"Who's the note from Brie?" Troy said sitting on a bar stool beside me.

"My mom. She had to go on a business trip again." I sighed.

"Where to this time?" He asked while taking a sip of his orange juice.

"Europe. She won't be back until next week." I said with another sigh. There was a silence.

"Want me to stay with you until she comes back?" He asked

"Okay. We can go over to your house to get overnight clothes if you like?" I said while getting off the chair.
"Alright, I'll tell my parents then." We walked over to his house to get his clothes. We were greeted by his mother, Katherine Bolton who was just about to walk upstairs when we walked in.

"Hi Katherine" I said with a smile

"Hi mom"

"Hello Gabriella, Troy. What are you guys doing?"

"I'm getting clothes to stay over at Gabi's. Is that ok mom?"

"Yeah that's fine". Troy got his clothes and we walked back to my house. We hanged out, watched TV, talked and ate dinner. Soon it was 12 and we decided to go to bed. We changed and went under the covers. Troy kissed me good night and put his arm around my waist and we drifted off to sleep. Tomorrow's just gonna be another boring day…
