"Bye" I grinned.
"Bye" he chuckled.
Fast Forward to Saturday
No ones POV
Tonight is the night of the 'Hello Dance'. Everyone was surely excited, and only one was nervous. Zeke. About that bet, he still has to do it. All the guys forgot about the bet but him. He definitely hoped that when he does have to kiss Sharpay, Gabriella won't see him. He just hoped and wishes she will not see.
Will it come true?
Brie and Alex are still meeting each other practically at 4 in the morning. Funny how Gabriella and Troy aren't really tired every morning they wake up now. They both, are still very clueless of each other.
The little relationship between Gabriella and Troy is growing. They are too stubborn to admit their feelings to each other. But Gabriella has reasons. She's still with Zeke. But if they break up, will that mean she'll tell Troy? Probably not. But its certainly cute at how they always flirt with each other obliviously.
Gabriella, Taylor, Sharpay and Kelsi were all in one cabin getting ready for the dance. The guys were going to pick them up and go to the dance. The dance was held outside on the 8 basketball courts with tables on 2 courts.
"Okay, Gabi do I look okay?" Taylor asked looking at herself in the mirror. Taylor was wearing a yellow and brown retro print halter dress. Her hair was in a messy side pony tail. The hem of the dress hit right on the knee. (Not good with description. Dress in profile)
"Taylor you don't look okay. You look gorgeous" she giggled. "What about me?" She asked twirling around. Gabriella had on a strapless, pale yellow dress with a bow around the waist. The hem is about 2-3 inches above her knee and it was a bubbled-hem.(Dress in profile. The shortness of the dress in the profile is longer in the story) Gabriella's brown curly locks were resting down her back, in perfect curls.
"Honey, you look the best out of all of us" Sharpay interjected. We all giggled and she blushed. Sharpay had on was a black halter v-neck dress, which didn't show much on the chest. On the dress was a velvet rose pattern. The hem was a couple inches above the knee and her hair was half up, half down curled. (Dress in profile)
"Yeah, very true. How do I look?" Kelsi asked straightening out her dress a little. She had on a black and white halter dress with a deep v neck, which also didn't show much. The waist and up were all bare and she had a sash right under her bustline. The hem of the dress was about one inch above the knee with her hair in a side ponytail.
"Kelsi you look absolutely gorgeous. Same with everyone" Gabriella commented. They all thanked her. "Ugh. Can someone give me some make-up? All I have is eyeliner and mascara"
"Gabs, you don't need any make-up." Taylor told her.
"Yeah I do. I look blah." She giggled.
"Yeah right. I wish I was you. You have natural beauty. Not many people get that" Sharpay agreed with Taylor.
It is true. Natural beauty is always the best.
Gabriella sighed. "Whatever. Can someone just pass me the mascara and thats all i'll wear" she informed her friends. They nodded and Gabriella put on a light coat of mascara and one coat of clear of strawberry lip gloss. "I feel so out of place being the only one thats wearing a strapless dress" Gabriella grunted.
Too bad that mascara will be gone later that night.
"Oh come on, you look stunning in that dress" Sharpay complimented.
"Thanks but seriously. Why am I the only one?" she asked.
"Well, you were the last one to get a dress and you found the perfect one" Taylor shrugged.
"Yeah, Gabs, you look great. Don't sweat it..." Gabriella sighed. "What time are the guys coming?" Kelsi asked. Gabi glanced at the clock that said 5:32 p.m.
"I think around 5:45" She answered her question. Everyone continued doing their make-up while she just sat out. Gabriella went through her phone and settled on the person she's been longing to talk to.
To:Troy Boy :P
Are you guys almost done?
--
Fr: Troy Boy :P
Close. What about you girls?
--
To: Troy Boy :P
I'm finished. They're still putting on make-up and not letting me use make-up either! :(
--
Fr: Troy Boy :P
Ha ha, Ella, you don't need make-up.
--
To: Troy Boy :P
That's what everyone says.
--
Fr: Troy Boy :P
Well its true. But I gotta go. See you soon!
Gabriella sighed and looked at the girls and they finished up. They sat in a circle and started talking. "I can't wait for senior year at East High!" Taylor squealed.
They all giggled. "Same here" Kelsi agreed. She was going to East High as well.
What a coincidence they were all going to the same school this year.
"So how are you and Zeke?" Sharpay asked.
"Just fine" I grinned. "Ugh. I hate wearing heels. I'm gonna laugh if I twist my ankle at the dance" she rolled her eyes.
Be careful what you say.
"Yeah. Well, its only one night!" Kelsi giggled.
"I gotta go to the bathroom and fix up real quick" Gabriella told her friends. They nodded and she went into the bathroom. A couple seconds after Gabriella left there was a knock on the door. The girls shot up and walked to the door and opened it.
"Well hello ladies" Jason greeted. They all giggled. They let the guys in and they all stood in line.
"Well you guys clean up nice" Taylor commented. They all laughed. They all complimented each other until Troy noticed Gabi was gone. He went to open his mouth and ask them where she was but Zeke beat him to the chase.
Too late Troy.
"Guys, where's Gabi?" Zeke asked not seeing his girlfriend.
"Bathroo-" Gabriella cut Taylor off.
"Right here" she smiled as she walked out of the bathroom. All the guys eyes went on her as she blushed.
"Wow Gabi. You look great" Zeke complimented. Gabriella smiled. 'Can't he just say beautiful instead of 'great'?' she thought.
There's one person that would say that.
"You look great too" she told her boyfriend.
Troy's eyes were still trained on her. 'Wow. She looks absolutely beautiful' He thought.
"Dude wipe the drool off your face" Chad nudged his side.
"What?" Troy snapped back into reality.
"Stop staring at her." Chad whisper-hissed. Troy rolled his eyes.
"I wasn't staring at her" Troy retorted.
"Okay, if you weren't staring at her then what is this exactly called?" Chad asked making the same expression Troy had seconds earlier.
"Chad, something wrong?" Taylor asked. Chad shook his head in embarrassment.
"No. Nothing" He chuckled nervously. Troy just chuckled. "Shut up" he hissed.
"Okay, let go" Zeke announced. They all walked out of Gabriella's cabin with their 'couples' in hand. Zeke with Gabriella hooked on his side, Troy with Sharpay hooked on, Chad and Taylor, and Jason and Kelsi.
At the Dance
The gang was sitting at their table talking to each other while everyone else in the camp were dancing or doing the same.
Gabriella and Zeke have danced about 4 times already as did everyone else. The only person that wasn't enjoying their time the most was Troy. He constantly looked at Gabriella, he just couldn't restrain his eyes from her. Gabriella looked at Troy at some time, but not as much as he looked at her.
Another slow song came on as Troy shot out of his seat and walked towards Gabriella and Zeke. "Zeke, can I ask Ella to borrow a dance with me?" Troy asked him.
"Yeah" Zeke chuckled.
"Well, Ella, would you like to dance?" he asked grinning. Gabriella shot back a grin as well.
"Sure" She giggled.
They stepped onto the dance floor as did the rest of the gang with their dates. Zeke was dancing with Sharpay only a few couples away from Troy and Gabriella.
"You look beautiful tonight Ella" Troy whispered in her ear making her shiver.
"Thanks Troy. You look handsome tonight" she giggled lightly. He smiled at her. The two were dancing and looking into each other eyes almost the whole time.
"So have you liked the dance so far?" Gabriella asked him.
"Right now I am yes" he grinned.
Gabriella grinned as well. After that song ended they still danced to another slow song. As did the rest of the people. Near the end of the second song Gabriella's eyes went wide as her eyes started watering.
"Uhm..Troy..thanks.. for..dancing..with me" she said as tears started slipping from her eyes. Troy looked at her worriedly.
"Ella, whats wrong?" he asked. She kept her eyes behind him as more tears kept falling. Troy looked behind himself to see Zeke and Sharpay kissing. His eyes went wide then redirected his attention back to Gabriella.
"Tr-tr-troy...i got-ta g-go" she stuttered trying to keep in her tears.
Oops, looks like Zeke didn't get his wish after all.
She ran away bumping in to people accidentally. Troy kept looking at Zeke and Sharpay make out. How could Zeke actually follow through with that bet? Once Gabriella ran past the tables a couple of feet, she fell to the ground and shrieked in pain. Everyone's eyes went to her as she kept bawling her eyes out. Troy ran after Gabriella as she struggled to get up and run she fell once again and yelped in pain. The DJ stopped his music and the only thing heard was Gabriella's sobbing. She tried once more to stand up. She followed through and started running but falling once again crying harder than ever. The gang started walking towards Gabriella as Troy ran right next to her.
"Ella" he cooed holding her and rocking her.
"Tr-tr-oy" she sobbed loudly. "g-go aw-w-way" she stuttered trying to get out of his grasp. She kept hitting him and punching his chest as she kept sobbing. Everyone's eyes were still on her. The gang approached the two.
"Gabi What happened?" Zeke asked walking up to his girlfriend full of fear.
"G-go away!" She screamed.
"What happened?" He asked in a more demanding voice.
"I-i don't wanna talk to you!" She yelled. "Troy l-let go of-of me!" she screamed still sobbing. Troy did as she wished. Gabriella tried standing and kept shaking as she did, she stood on her two feet and fell once again clutching her right ankle and kept sobbing.
"Gabi!" The girls screamed. Gabriella kept clutching her ankle as she sobbed hard.
"Ella" Troy said softly pulling her up to sit.
"Tr-troy" she sobbed. "It-it h-hurts" she cried.
"What does?" he asked analyzing her up and down her body.
"My-my ank-le" she stuttered. He examined her right ankle and it was swollen.
The gang surrounded Gabriella as they were watching her in sympathy and wondering what happened. Troy scooped her up bridal style and started walking to the nurse.
"Hey, dude let me carry her" Zeke told Troy.
"No. You've done enough damage" Troy roared at him. Zeke took a couple step backwards as Gabriella kept crying into his chest.
"Shh, Ella its gonna be okay. Please stop crying" He cooed.
"But-but it st-still hurts" she cried.
"I know your ankle hurts. We're almost at the nurses" he sighed.
"Not on-ly my ankle" she told him as her sobbing was coming to an end.
"What hurts then?" Troy asked looking down at her.
"My heart" she said quietly. Troy frowned. He knew he couldn't do anything about that.
Troy sighed. "I'm sorry El, I can't do anything about that. I'm sorry about Zeke too." he sighed.
Gabriella nodded. "I know." she sighed. Gabriella held on tighter to his neck and Troy bent down and kissed her forehead, a small smile playing on her lips. "You know, its funny that before you guys came to pick us up, I told the girls I'd laugh if I twisted my ankle with my heels tonight. Look at me now" she sighed and rested her head against his chest.
"Its gonna be okay baby" Troy said unconsciously. His eyes widened as he just registered what he said and she smiled and kissed his chest.
Aw, how cute.
Meanwhile with the rest of the gang.
The music was playing again and everyone was dancing but the gang. "Okay, what was that about?" Taylor asked.
Everyone shrugged besides Sharpay and Zeke. Everyone eyed them suspiciously.
Looks like they got caught.
"Sharpay, what happened?" Taylor asked looking at her.
"Well" she looked at Zeke.
"We were making out while dancing" Zeke said quickly. Everyone's eyes went wide. Chad glared at him.
"Zeke, can Jason and I talk to you for a second over there" Chad hissed. Zeke shrugged and went with them.
"WHAT THE HELL" Jason and Chad yelled.
"What?" Zeke asked.
"You did that stupid bet!" Jason said low and loud enough for only them to hear.
"Kinda. I kissed her on the first song. Then the second one we just started making out" he shrugged as if it wasn't a big deal. Jason and Chad gave Zeke a hard cold glare.
Looks like that kiss was more than a bet.
"That was the reason why Gabriella kept crying you fucking idiot" Chad hissed. Zeke's eyes went wide.
Jason kept glaring at him until something clicked in his mind. She kept falling. "Chad. Gabi twisted her ankle." he told him.
"Are you sure?" Chad asked. Then all of sudden everything clicked. "Oh shit." he ran towards the circle of girls.
With the girls a couple minutes before.
"Why were you making out with Zeke?" Taylor asked in a dangerous, low voice.
"He kissed me first and then the next song we just started making out" Sharpay said examining her nails.
"WHAT THE HELL" Kelsi shouted.
"Hey, don't blame me. He's the one that started it." she shrugged.
"Kelsi..." Taylor started, she knew what happened to Gabriella other than the kiss.
"yeah?" she asked.
"Gabriella twisted her ankle" Kelsi's face went pale. Chad and Jason ran over the girls.
"Guys, we gotta get to the nurse" Jason and Chad. They nodded. "But Sharpay and Zeke can stay here" Chad said coldly.
They all ran to the nurses office as best as they can.
With Troy and Gabi
Troy looked down at the girl in his arms fighting to stay awake. Her eyes kept closing then she'd open them again. He smiled because he thought it was so cute.
"Troy, are we here?" she asked. She moved her ankle slightly and winced as the tears stung her eyes.
"Yeah we're here. Uh, Gabriella twisted her ankle" Troy informed the nurse. Her eyes went wide.
"Okay, can you please put her down right here while I take some x-rays" the nurse told him. Troy nodded and set Gabriella down on the bed carefully as he kept watching the nurse do things with Gabi. After a couple of minutes the door swung open furiously.
"Is Gabi okay?" Taylor asked frantically.
"I don't know yet. The nurse is still checking her out" Troy told them with a sigh. He sat on a chair as did everyone else. "I can't believe Zeke actually took the bet" Troy said after a couple minutes of silence.
"A bet?" Kelsi asked.
"Yeah. He told us that a guy and him made a bet that he couldn't kiss Sharpay at the dance for 50 bucks. But when he did he said he couldn't stop kissing her." Jason answered.
"Can't believe it" Taylor said. They all sighed.
"I feel so sorry for Gabi" Chad said sadly.
"Yeah, before we went to the dance, Gabi said she'd laugh if she twisted her ankle in those heels" Taylor told them. They all laughed lightly when they heard a scream in the other room. Troy shot up and went over to the nurse.
"Sorry for the scream Mr. Bolton" The nurse apologized.
"Is she okay?" he asked.
"Yeah, I am Troy. She's just putting things around my ankle" Gabriella informed Troy. Troy smiled and kissed her forehead.
"So what happened to her ankle?" He asked the nurse.
"She just sprained it. That's all...hun, you need to be careful while wearing heels" she told Gabi. Gabriella nodded. "She'll have to stay in these crutches about 2 weeks, so Troy please watch her carefully. She'll have to come back in 2 weeks and get check out." This time the both of them looked at each other and smiled.
With the 4
They saw Troy kiss her forehead. "He is so in love with her" Chad chuckled.
"He cares too much about her" Jason added.
"What?" Taylor and Kelsi asked.
"Troy likes Gabi, a lot" Chad explained.
"Yeah, i figured." Taylor commented.
"They are cute together" Kelsi smiled.
"Yeah, but she's still with Zeke" Taylor remembered frowning a bit.
They sighed. They knew they couldn't do anything about it.
"Hey Guys" Troy entered the room again.
"Hey" they all greeted him in unison.
"Ella's in crutches. I think I'm gonna stay in her cabin tonight, is that okay?" Troy asked looking at the girls.
"Yeah, its no problem" Taylor answered.
"You know you should ask her out Troy" Kelsi suggested. Troy knitted his two eyebrows in confusion.
"What do you mean?" he asked acting dumb. He knew exactly what they were talking about. He just didn't want to admit it to them.
"Troy you know what we're talking about" Jason told him.
He sighed. "Okay I do. But I just don't wanna do it"
"Why not?" Taylor asked.
"Because im afraid im gonna hurt her and still, she's going out with Zeke" he reasoned. They all stayed quiet because they knew those were two good reasons.
"Troy? Ms. Montez is calling for you" The nurse informed him. Troy nodded and went into the room.
"Hey" he spoke softly.
"Hey" she smiled slightly. "Can you stay with me in my cabin tonight?" she asked.
"Yeah, I was thinking that" he chuckled.
"Okay. Well help me up and we can get out of this place." she giggled light heartedly. He grinned and helped her sit up and gave her the crutches. "These things are painful" she told him. He laughed.
"Of course they are" he shook his head. She smiled. They went to the front room and saw their 4 friends.
"Gabi!" They all shouted in unison. She giggled.
"Hey guys" they all went in for a group hug. "Uh, me and Troy are gonna go to my cabin so we'll see you guys later okay? Go back to the dance" she told them.
"Nah, I think we should hang out with you guys" Chad grinned.
"Are you sure?" Gabriella asked. They all nodded and she smiled. "Okay"
"Chad, can you swing by our cabin and get me clothes?" Troy asked his best friend.
"Hey, why don't you guys just all sleep over?" Gabriella suggested.
"Yeah, that would be cool" Taylor and Kelsi added.
"Yeah, so what do you say?" Gabriella asked looking at Chad and Jason. She pouted and they all laughed. Chad and Jason agreed.
"Okay, well can you guys get me some clothes then come to their cabin okay?" Troy asked.
"Yeah, we'll go with them" Taylor said. They all went their separate ways.
Later that night.
They were all sprawled out on the ground in their pajamas. The 6 of them were laughing hysterically at Jason's jokes. They were all having a great time in the girls cabin forgetting about where Zeke and Sharpay would be. Jason and Chad finally asked Kelsi and Taylor to be their girlfriends, and they gladly accepted. Gabriella grabbed her phone and texted Alex while everyone was playing a game.
To: Alex
I can't hang out for awhile. Im really sorry.
--
Fr: Alex
Its okay. Lets talk later. (:
--
To: Alex
Okay, I'll tell you when we can see each other again. My friends are getting suspicious. Ha ha
--
Fr: Alex
Oh okay. Later
Gabriella sighed as she watched her friends having fun. She glanced at the clock. It was 11:24 and she was pretty tired from her day. "Guys, i'm gonna go to bed." She announced.
"Yeah, I think we should all get to bed" Taylor said giving everyone but Troy and Gabriella a look. They all agreed and went to bed. Troy in Gabriella's bed, Jason and Kelsi snuggled in each others arms on the ground and Chad and Taylor in her bed.
They all laid there as Gabriella back is turned towards Troy and his arm was around her waist safely in his arms. He pulled her in closer and they just fit perfectly. Gabriella smiled, "Good Night" she told him.
"Good Night" he said kissing her forehead. The 4 of their friends grinned. They were planning on staying up as Gabriella and Troy fall asleep.
After a few minutes Gabriella fell asleep. Troy was watching her and everyone in the cabin still knew he was awake due to his sighing and movements, his hand kept stroking her hair. There was still no sight of Sharpay and Zeke. Gabriella moved in closer to Troy and he smiled. "I love you Ella" he sighed. Kelsi, Taylor, Chad and Jason's eyes widened and they looked at each other. He kissed her forehead and fell asleep. To him, the only way he could fall asleep is if he knew she fell asleep and kissed her good night and tell her he loved him. Sure he only knew her for 2 weeks, but that last week, he's realized he loved her. She made him feel like no other girl could and he was happy it was her. He was scared as hell when she was crying at the dance.
Once the 4 knew Troy and Gabriella fell asleep they sat up and looked at them. "They are so cute" Taylor said quietly.
"I know. They need to be together" Kelsi commented.
"It would be hard though" Chad interjected.
"Yeah, I know but we just have to let it happen on its own." Taylor said. They all agreed. Taylor grabbed her camera and took a couple of pictures of them. She finished with a satisfied grin. Everyone fell asleep a couple minutes after.

"Troy" Gabriella nudged him.
"Mmm"
"Troy" she whispered.
"Huh?" he asked in a quiet tone.
"Can we go to the lake?" she asked.
"What time is it?" he mumbled.
"12:30" she told him.
"Why are you up?"
"Can't sleep" she said quietly. He sighed. "It's okay if you don't wanna go. Just...just go back to sleep" she told him. He sighed again. "It's okay, im gonna go back to sleep" she lied.
"mmkay" Troy mumbled. Gabriella pretended to fall asleep as she waited for Troy to fall asleep. Once she thought Troy was surely asleep, she tried to slip from his grasp. "I'm not stupid Ella" he mumbled.
Gabriella sighed. "Please Troy, can I just go alone?"
"No" he mumbled. She sighed in defeat and actually fell asleep again. 20 minutes later Gabriella woke up and looked around the room. No Sharpay. She looked at Troy and smiled. She kissed his cheek and she slipped from his arms successfully this time. She grabbed her crutches and went outside. She hopped her way towards the lake and saw two figures out on the grass. One was lying on top of the other. She kept a big distance from them, but from where she could still hear them. She shakily put her self to lay down.
She heard them talking. "Do you think Gabi's mad?" she heard a girl voice. Sharpay.
"Maybe but she'll get over it" the guy said. Zeke.
"Are you gonna break up with her?" Sharpay asked.
"Yeah, probably" Zeke answered. Gabriella's eyes filled with tears. She heard them kiss as she heard someone come out from the bushes.
"Ella" Troy breathed quietly. She didn't respond. He looked at her and saw silent tears. "Whats wrong?" he asked not noticing the two people far from her. He lied himself next to her and wrapped his arms around her and wiped her tears.
"Thats Zeke and Sharpay over there" She said once her crying stopped, pointing to the two figures. Troy's eyes turned darker, from what Gabi saw in the moonlight. She put her hands to his chest and she saw his eyes lighten.
"Why did you go out here by yourself? You could've got hurt" he scolded her. She sighed.
"I really needed some air and the best place is the lake, you know" she told him.
"You could've just dragged me with you."
"Yeah, see. Drag. I don't wanna do that. I want you to do it with your own power. Not have to go because of me." she gave him a reasonable answer.
He sighed. "sorry"
"what for?"
"I don't know. I should of just went with you." he told her.
The sides of her mouth curled upwards. "Its okay" she kissed his cheek. He smiled and kissed her forehead. After a couple minutes of silence they were listening to Zeke and Sharpay.
"Are you sure Gabi won't be mad? Because she's my cabin mate and all" Sharpay asked Zeke.
"Yes. She won't be mad" Zeke told her again.
Sharpay sighed. "So when are you gonna break up with her?" she asked curiously.
"Sometimes next week" he shrugged.
"Okay" he kissed her.
Troy looked at Gabriella. Her eyes were glossed with tears. A tear made its way down her face and Troy wiped it away with the pad of his thumb.
"There you guys are!" They heard Chad shout. Troy and Gabriella shot up and a pain shot through Gabriella's foot down to her ankle making her wince with tears coming down. Troy shot Chad an annoyed look and he took her in his arms.
"What are you guys doing out here?" Taylor nearly shouted. Jason looked down at the two people down near Troy and Gabriella.
"Sharpay? Zeke?" Jason asked confused. Everyone's eyes went wide but Troy and Gabriella's.
"What the hell!" Chad shouted. Everyone glared at him. There was suppose to be no one outside of their cabin after 11:30.
There was a flashlight going through the bushes and everyone got scared. "Whose out there? This is the security guards!" They yelled. Everyone scurried off but Gabriella and Troy. The three security guards came out of the bushes and saw two teens. "What are you two doing out here?" one of them asked in a commanding tone.
Tsk tsk, looks like someone's or two someone's been caught.
Uh-Oh. They're in trouble now! What a chapter full of drama! Ha ha.
I decided that I will no longer do the story with my friend, Stubborn Love.
I wanna concentrate on a story one at a time.
Hm, if you guys noticed, I added some things, like from gossip girl. Like the last sentence and a few others. Do you think I should keep doing that or no? I'd really like to know! Just imagine as if it was Gossip Girl saying that or something. Haha.
What do you think of this chapter?
Review please. (:
Thanks for the review guys! I really love you! (:
