At East High, Troy leaned up against his locker, three periods had passed and no Gabriella. "Crap..." he whispered to himself, running a hand down his face and through his hair, "Gabriella...where are you-" "She doesn't go to East High anymore." Troy turned around, seeing Carlos. "Carlos what do you mean-" Carlo's fist met his jaw in a sudden kiss, "that's what you get for going around with another girl!"

Troy rubbed his nose, blood falling from it. he looked up at Carlos, "Carlos, what are you talking about? I wasen't with another girl-" Carlos just rolled his eyes, "Yeah right whatever." "How is she?" Troy asked sitting up, Carlos scoffed, "Like you care. you hurt her. she's away from you now, so just move on and forget about her."

Troy bit his lip, "I can't do that." "Why not." "Cause I love her!" then chad came up behind him, "Dude, come on, we have practice against the west high knights, let's get there." Troy nodded following behind chad and headed to West High.

TGTGTG

Brittany and Gabriella sat on the bleachers, Gabriella watched the team stretch, "So your aloud to do this all the time? just ditch classes, and come here?" Brittany nodded, "It's great isn't it?" Gabriella took a sip of her water nodding, "Yeah it is, what team is coming for practice?" "Oh East High Wildcats."

Gabriella sputtered out her water, "w-what?" Brittany bit her lip, "Are you okay?" Gabriella was about to speak, until the door opened and she saw all the East High Wildcats coming in. Gabriella's eyes went wide as she saw Troy walking in with his Wildcat jersey on. he looked so hot.

Shawn smirked walking over to Troy, "Hey Bro, thanks so much for dumping your chick." Troy raised a brow, "What are you talking about? I didn't dump her, I don't even know what I did, and how did you know that me and her were having problems." Shawn smirked, "Well, because she's here over there on the bleachers with Brittany, and she's my girlfriend now."

Troy's head snapped to the bleachers, his eyes connecting with Gabriella's. Gabriella gasped, "Brit, I.. I gotta go to the bathroom."

"Oh...okay..." Brittney said, "I'll hold your space for you-" Gabriella couldn't run out of the gym fast enough; well she could've...if Shawn hadn't grabbed her arm and pulled her to him. "Hey...Babe. Say hey to your ex boyfriend." Gabriella bit her lip, not looking at Troy or Shawn. "uh...hi...er, I gotta pee. So...bye!"

Troy watched her run to the bathroom. Troy bit his lip, and heard Chad yell at him, "Troy come on, let's get practice over with." Troy sighed, he was going to have to talk to her after practice. practice had began, and in the middle of the practice, Gabriella had came out of the bathroom and sat on the bleachers with Brittany. Troy kept his eyes on her, and that cause him to get hit in the face with the ball. Chad ran over helping him up, "Dude, you okay?" Troy nodded as troy helped him up.

Gabriella just looked at him, Man, he is so hit in that uniform, and those muscles when his sweaty, wait! why are you thinking about him that way? he cheated on you Gabriella.. C-H-E-A-T-E-D.. CHEATED! Gabriella bit her lip, seeing that practice was over, Shawn walked over to her as she stood up, "Listen, Brie.." he spine froze as he called her that, Troy looked up at what he had said. "Can I take you out to dinner tonight, my treat?" Gabriella looked at Troy from the side, then she locked lips softly with Shawn, "I'd love to Shawn."

"Great." Shawn smirked as she walked away with Brittany. Shawn watched her ass go from side to side. "Quit looking." Troy said sternly. Shawn looked at him, "hey! I can do whatever I want! she's mine now, not Bolton's property anymore." Shawn walked up to him, coming close to him face, "Gabriella is living in my kingdom now, If I want her to be my slave, she will be my slave, if I want her to be my slut, she'll be my slut, your not in her life anymore Bolton! I can do whatever the hell I want with her! got that!"

Troy felt fire churn his stomach, he didn't have the ability to stop himself when he shoved Shawn hard enough to knock him off balance-if the rest of West High team hadn't been there, he'd be on the floor. Chad held Troy back, "Man...stop it, Shawn's not worth it..." Troy shook him off and continued his loud and incessant ramblings, "you don't EVER talk to or about her like that! She doesn't deserve you!"

Chad pulled him off of Shawn, "Troy just forget him.. let's just go-" "I have to find Gabriella first." and with that he rushed out of the gym and into the west high hallways. he smiled to himself, East High was bigger and better then West High. he ran down the halls searching for her. people stared at him, looking at him like he was nuts.

"Brie!" he yelled, searching through the hallways. he smiled as he saw her coming out of the class with Brittany talking. he ran over to her, grabbing her on the shoulder, "Brie, we need to talk." Gabriella looked at him, then at Brittany, "Brit, I'll catch up in chemistry with you." Brittany nodded, "Okay. nice meeting you Troy." she smiled polietly.

Troy nodded politely, mumbling out a 'you too' as he looked at Gabriella. "I need to talk to you-" she shook her head, turning away from him but he kept up effortlessly, "I have nothing to say to you-" "then just listen to me!" he said, grabbing her elbow and pulling her to a stop, "please just...listen to me."

Gabriella sighed looking down at the ground. biting her lower lip, and looking up at him. he shook his head, "Don't do that." "What?" "Don't bite your lower lip, it's..I would miss it to much."

she rolled her eyes, scoffing, pulling her elbow away, "You wouldn't have to miss me if you didn't cheat on me-" "I don't know what your talking about-" "My brother saw you Troy! he took a picture! at the bowling alley! were you at the bowling alley that night with another girl?"

"Another..." Troy whispered, he looked at her, "Gabriella, she was an ex girlfriend of mine-" "WORSE!" she yells, turning around, he grabbed her elbow again, looking over his shoulder and saw a janitor's closet. Walking in and shutting the door, "Brie let me-" "don't call me that..." "Fine, Gabriella, let me explain-" "Why should I-oof!" his lips crashed down on hers in a passionate fire building kiss.

Gabriella wrapped her arms around his neck. she moaned into the kiss. Troy's kiss slid down to her neck, planting sweet kisses on her skin. Gabriella moaned as he propped her up on the desk in there. Troy's lips went around her breasts, and she ran her fingers through his hair.

She stopped him before he could go further. "Troy..stop..stop!" she pushed him off of her. he looked at her, biting his lower lip, "Just let me explain." Gabriella started to have tears in her eyes, "Please.. why.. why can't you just leave me alone.. please.. "

"Cause I want to explain what-" "Just leave me alone...please Troy?" Gabriella sniffled, sliding off the desk and walking to the door, but Troy grabbed her arm and pulled her back to his chest and stroked her hair, "Please," he begged.

"I just want to ex-" "No." she shook her head, rubbing her face against his chest, she pulled away from him "you're making this harder for the both us.." "Brie-" "NO TROY!" she shoves him back, "you ...you made your decision by..by kissing that girl-" "I didn't kiss her!" "I saw that picture! Don't try to lie! I hate you Troy Bolton!"

Troy sighed, "Please-" Gabriella slapped him across the face, "Stay. Away. From. Me." she threatened. and turned around walking back to her class. Troy watched her leave, he sighed biting his lower lip, he need to talk to her, he wasen't going to give up on getting her back. No. Troy Bolton was going to get his girl back, nothing, Nothing! was going to stop him.
