A/N: Listen to a sad song while reading this. Sets the mood, if you know what I mean.

From the last chapter.

"Can I use your bathroom?" She asked.

"Sure its right over there." He said, pointing towards a door across the hall.

She went in the bathroom and closed the door. She turned towards the mirror, and sighed.

Gabriella knew in her heart and in her head, that things were moving way to quickly. She relized that she was going to have to end their night of fun before anything happened that they would both regret later on. She knew what she had to do now, as much as it killed her inside. She let loose a single tear that fell from her eye. It dripped down the side of her face before landing in the sink. Gabriella sighed. This was going to kill her heart, and she didn't know when it would heal. She quietly opened the door, her face was grim and sad at the same time.

MEANWHILE WITH TROY WHILE GABRIELLA WAS IN THE BATHROOM

Troy was getting extremely nervous. He knew that he really liked Gabriella and he wanted them to last forever. He had only met her this morning. Things were moving extremely to fast, and he didn't know how to slow them down. Lucky for him, Gabriella was about to slow them down, maybe even stop them.

Gabriella walked in from the bathroom, and sat down next to Troy. Not to close though.

"Troy, we need to talk." Gabriella said sadly. She stuck one foot under her thigh, and turned towards him. He looked at her as if telling her to go on.

'When I got here this morning, I was so nervous, but then when I met you, it all disapperaed. Almost as if something just left me. But, I can't do this. Things are going to fast, and I don't want to make things worse for both of us.' There were tears in her eyes as Gabriella said this.

Troy was enraged and he didn't know why. Something was boiling up inside of him, and he didn't like it, but he felt like he had no control over it. Suddenly he poured all of his emotions into a kiss, which he placed on Gabriella's lips.

Gabriella pulled away, too upset to speak. She only managed to say 'I have to go.' She quickly got up and walked to the door, her head tilted downwards.

'Why? Why do you have to leave me like this?' Troy yelled angrily. He didn't know what was wrong with him, but he didn't like it.

'Please Troy, don't make this harder then it already is.' Gabriella said, through tears, which were now pouring down her cheeks.

'Just get out.' Troy said, solemnly, as he closed the door behind Gabriella, who just left, tears now flowing freely from her eyes.

Gabriella raced out to her car, and then relized, that she hadn't drove here. She started walking home and just cried for ten minutes while walking.She didn't know why this was so emotional for her, she only met him this morning. She was just head over heels in love with him, even though they had just broken up after going out for what, a couple of hours? Gabriella decided she didn'd want to go home, and instead decided to walk towards the town park. She sat down on a bench, and cried, for what seemed like an eternity. She stayed like this, until she felt a hand on her shoulder. She looked up to see a man about her age. She recoiled her shoulder as she smelt alcohol and could sense, just by looking at him that he was drunk.

"Can I help you?" Gabriella asked slightly afraid.

"In more ways then you know." Said the man, stepping closer.

"Don't you dare come near me." Gabriella said, standing up and trying to look confident.

Gabriella slowly backed away, but everytime she did that, he would take a step closer. Suddenly, a figure came from behind a tree, and raced towards the drunken man. Gabriella screamed, and turned and ran away. She could hear shouts, and the sound of skin impacting skin painfully. She kept running until she got home, where she burst inside, and locked all the doors and windows. She ran into the kitchen and looked around for any sign of her mother. She saw a note on the marble counter-top. She quickly scanned it, taking in every word of it.

Gabi-

Went out to get some food, and other stuff. I will be back soon, promise! Love ya

-Mommy

Gabriella crumpled it up and threw it into the the trash bin. She raced upstairs, and charged into her still mostly empty room. She threw herself onto the bed and screamed and cried into her pillow. She kept this up, until she fell asleep. In all the negative excitement that occured that day, she totally forgot that tomorow was her first day of school at East High. Her dreams shifted from Troy, to the drunken man. Today was not Gabriella's day.

A/N: This chapter is mostly about Gabriella, the next chapter will focus more on Troy's life. By the way, I love the title of this chapter. :) Review It Please! Thanks to Daisy, for reading this before its posted!
