A week had passed since Troy had began practicing his song, or rather his song for Gabirella. It was coming together brilliantly.And as he sat in homeroom he found himself looking forward to free period soon the song would be good enough to sing for Gabby. He smiled at the thought. But then again he didn't want t just to be good enough he wanted it to be perfect...

"DUDE!!" Troy jumped, "Welcome back to planet Earth!" Chad said laughing,"The bell rang already."

"It did? I didn't hear it..." They got up and left. They had barely left the classroom when Chad was dragged away by Taylor not that Chad seemed to mind. Troy smiled he was happy for Chad. If only he had been able to find Gabby on the Championship Game day, maybe things would be different now... But it wasn't too late. He hoped. And then again... After all, the guys in the crowd when they sang... Loads of them must like her... He soon found himself running to the music room - he had to get this song perfect: soon.

As the last bell rang the students rushed out of classrooms among them was Gabriella and Taylor.

"So, are you meeting Troy after School?" Taylor took no hesitation jumping right in and asking. Causing Gabriella to laugh.

"You don't give up do you?" Although she knew perfectly well the answer to the question she had just asked...

"No. And I won't till you two see the light and get together!" She said as if Gabriella was completely insane.

"So you didn't answer my question."

"Yes I am, so what?" Taylor rolled her eyes.

" "Just Friends"."

"What? We are! Anyway I gotta go meet him." She said trying a little to hard to fight the excitment in her voice.

"I'll call you tonight so you can tell me all about it then. Bye!"

"Bye!" She turned around and began walking towards the Science Department of the school. She could feel the farmiliar butterflies fill her stomach as she approached the balcony. Maybe something would happen? No. No if they were going to get together it would've happened by now... We're just good friends... Aren't we...? She was annoyed at herself for always wanting more from Troy. And besides theres a thousand aother girls in this school chasing after him... Why would he go out with her? But then again he had proved he didn't care about the "status quo" She resigned her muddled up thoughts and climbed the stairs where Troy was waiting for her.A very cool breeze hit her as she reached the top she hadn't thought it would be so cold...But she smiled when she saw him - as she always did, and he grinned back to her.

"Hey!" she said greeting happily. " I got your note, anything wrong?" she asked," You've been acting kinda weird lately..."

"Yeah I'm fine!" he said and this time she could believe it. Even though they had know eachother little more than a month Gabriella and Troy seemed to read eachother perfectly.

"I just felt a little sick yesterday..." he lied and she knew but she didn't want to ask. She just hoped he was alright and she wondered that part aloud by accident.

"Yeah I'm better than alright - I'm here with you." was the reply - The butterflies went crazy. She sat down on the bench. He came and sat down close beside her. Another chilly breeze came and they seemed to be unconsciencely huddling together for warmth.

Troy was sitting perfectly happy in their comfy silence not even realising her had huddled right up with her, when he did he didn't move - she wasn't objecting and he certainly wasn't about to say anything. It was all he could do not to stare at her and then she rested her head on his shoulder. All his instincts told him to start singing but he reminded himself how it had to be perfect for her and resisted. So they just sat there. Not a word was spoken although niether of them seemed to mind. It seemed like hey had been sitting for barely more than 5 minutes when Troys phone rang. So help me God if this is Chad...

"Sorry!" she said when she realised what she was doing.

"Don't be." He flipped up his phone.

Dad Calling

He pushed the green button on his phone.

"Dad?"

"Troy! Where are you?? It's nearly 6!"

"What no it isn't!"He said, Gabriella checked the time on her phone since Troy's was already in use. He watched her eyes widen and surprise appear on her face. She held up 6 fingers.

"Oh man! Sorry Dad I'll be home in 15 minutes! See you then."

He pressed the red button.

"6?!? Can you believe that?"Troy exclaimed as he gathered his bag onto his back.

"I know it felt like no time ago I arrived!" Gabriella replied as she did the same.

"We better go they'll be closing the school soon!" They dashed out of the school and began walking on the foot path at a quick pace. They turned left.

"Troy this is the long way to your house." Gabriella pointed out.

"I don't mind I'll sprint the rest of the way." He said with no remorse to the fact. As they walked they talked about the musical and how they couldn't wait to start rehersals and all too soon they were standing at Gabriella's Front Porch.

"Thanks Troy!" she said.

"No problem if you ever get sick of "freaky call back boy" call me "freaky walk home" boy!" He laughed.

"I'll bare that in mind!" They stood for a moment gazing into eachothers eyes drawing slightly closer...

No wait not yet!! Troy pulled back slightly.

"Ah I better go... Dad's angry enough as it is... I'll catch you tommorrow!" He said and began to sprint off. Leaving Gabriella feeling slightlystunned and very confused.
