Dedicated to someone that told me when we were dating that he hated the girl who is now his current girlfriend. Irony, huh? Pretty darn amusing irony at that. Can you imagine how much drama I could cause if I told her that?
Yup the dedicated to's are back! We figured we'd wait until Edward came back to continue them.
No we don't own NSYNC.

Gabriella felt as if she was just hit in the face.
"One, I'm not a dude. Two, why doesn't he have the last name as you, since I'm pretty darn sure that he isn't your mother's kid?" Gabriella asked, extremely freaked out by now. Gabriella was generally a observant person, so of course, she was looking him up and down while freaking out, comparing him to when she last saw him. He apparently hadn't grown any taller and still had his hair dyed black. She hated that he had done that, he looked horrible with it. He was even wearing one of the same shirts he had when they had been dating.…six years later.
"My dad didn't know he had him until Bryce's mom died and he was sent to live with him right before you moved. I showed you pictures if I remember correctly." Edward said rolling his eyes.
"That's why he seemed so familiar." Gabriella muttered. She was about to say something else, but Sharpay had figured out who he was too.
"EDWARD MILLS? DIDN'T I TELL YOU TO NEVER GET WITHIN FIFTY MILES OF GABRIELLA MONTEZ OR ME?" Sharpay shrieked and started walking towards him at an amazing pace considering she was wearing five inch stilettos.
"Crap!" Edward squeaked before he ran out of the room as quickly as possible.
"He's Bryce's brother? Oh hell no, I do not want that... person at my wedding!" Abby half yelled, half pouted. She looked at Gabriella out of the corner of her eye, "Gabi, are you going to be ok with him being around?"
"I'll put up with him for you. Anyone else would be out of luck." Gabriella said forcing a smile.
"I need to go find Bryce. Now." Abby said as she walked out. About at the door she stopped with a pained look on her face. "Oh no. He's going to be my brother-in-law! I had heard Bryce talk about his brother Edward, but I never saw him or a picture."
"Don't worry, we'll help you both through this." Taylor said as she hugged Gabriella since she looked close to tears. Taylor couldn't tell if it was for her or Abby's sake.
Abby spotted Bryce talking to one of his guy-friends and walked over to him. She stood with hands on her hips behind him, "Edward? Edward Mills?" she hissed.
"Oh, is my brother here finally?" He asked turning around to face her with a happy look on his face.
"Is he here? Yes that two-timer is here!" Abby replied, looking as if steam would be pouring out of her ears at any second.
"Two-timer?" He asked, looking confused.
"He put Gabi through a living hell, Bryce! He treated her like dirt!" She responded, almost yelling. She was definitely starting to scare Bryce.
"That was a long time ago, Abby, He's changed... matured." Bryce said, taking his furious finance into his arms in an attempt to calm her.
"You knew He had a past with Gabi and I you could have warned me that your brother Edward was the same Edward!"
"I thought you knew, so I didn't think it was important." He responded shrugging.
"This probably isn't the best time to point this out, but I HATE YOUR BROTHER!" She yelled causing him to let go of her.
"Now's probably not a good time to remind you that he's the best man then, huh?"
"WHAT?"
"Why is Gabi's friend chasing him?" Bryce asked suddenly looking out the doors of the church and spotting Sharpay, who was about to catch Edward as he desperately attempted to find an unlocked car in the parking lot to get into to escape Sharpay.
"Gabriella will not walk down the aisle with him." Abby responded in what almost sounded like a growl.
"Why not? He doesn't like her either right? That way it shouldn't cause any drama, right?" Bryce asked as he folded his arms across his chest.
"Seriously, that's what you think is going to happen? Did you nothear what happened last time this whole group got together?" Abby asked incredulous that her fiancé was that stupid.
Bryce didn't answer; he was too busy watching Sharpay and Edward who had finally found an unlocked car.
"UNLOCK THAT DOOR RIGHT NOW YOU IDIOTIC CREEP! I SWEAR I'M GOING TO MAKE YOU WISH YOU WERE NEVER BORN!" Sharpay screamed through the window at Edward as he cowered from her, even though there was a door protecting him.
"HOW WAS I SUPPOSE TO KNOW THAT YOU AND GABRIELLA WERE GOING TO BE AT MY BROTHER'S WEDDING?" He yelled back at her.
"Man, when are we going to learn that we need to take a video camera whenever we take Sharpay somewhere?" Taylor asked as she and the rest of the girls came to watch Sharpay.
"This could possibly make it all worthwhile for having to put up with him while we're here." Gabriella said laughing.
"What are you going to tell Troy though?" Asked Kelsi, resulting in Gabriella to quit laughing instantly.
"IF YOU DON'T GET OUT OF YOUR CAR RIGHT NOW, I'LL SLASH YOUR RAG TOP!" Sharpay screamed back at Edward while taking off a shoe. Apparently she thought it would work well to ruin the top of the convertible Edward was in.
"WHO EVER SAID THIS WAS MY CAR, EH?" Edward screamed back smirking.
"I'VE SEEN PICTURES YOU IDIOT! I DON'T SEE WHY YOU'RE SO FREAKIN' PROUD OF SUCH A GIRLY CAR!"
"How did she know what his car looked like?" Bryce asked, clearly extremely confused.
"They're cousins, Smart one!" Abby snapped rolling her eyes. "I need to get out of here. Come
on let's go get lunch." She said to the rest of the girls as she walked out of the church towards her car.
"Sharpay! Come on! You can harass him another day!" Taylor yelled at the still bickering Sharpay who had been extremely close to slashing Edward's convertible top. Edward looked relieved as Sharpay looked at Taylor like she was crazy.
"What? Why? He's here now!" Sharpay screeched at Taylor as she and Gabriella came over.
"We're going to get lunch with the guys." Gabriella said as she and Taylor attempted to drag Sharpay away.
"I can walk on my own." Sharpay spat shaking them off. She then turned back to Edward who was still cowering in the car. "I swear I'm not finished!"

"Edward is Bryce's half brother? No way!" Chad exclaimed after the girls had told the guys what had happened.
"Yeah Troy you won't have to worry about threatening him, Sharpay did a wonderful job. He ended up locking himself in his car to get away from her. She was about to slash the top to his convertible, but we called her off." Abby said smirking at Sharpay.
"I swear, if he comes within 20 feet of you I'm going to kill him." Sharpay said looking at Gabriella.
"Well…about that…He's the best man." Abby muttered.
"What?" Gabriella, Troy, and Sharpay yelled at the same time.
"Sorry." Abby said sliding down her chair as if they wouldn't be able to see her as well.
"It's not your fault." Gabriella said putting her elbows on the table and her head in her hands.
"Where are you going on your honeymoon?" Kelsi asked in attempts to get everyone's mind off Edward. Unfortunately, it did the opposite for Gabriella.
"Well we had a whole honeymoon planed out in Hawai'i, but Brycedecided to go to Atlantic City with his friends and ended up losing about 90 percent of the honeymoon money. Now we're going to end up spending a night in a hotel here, then meet you guys back in Albuquerque to check things out." Abby said spitefully.
"Fine mom, I'll go to the teen club." Gabriella said, finally giving in. She and her parents were currently in Hawai'i on a cruise. They had decided to go right before her dad went to Iraq on a photo assignment.
"I bet you'll love it!" She responded kissing Gabriella on the forehead before pushing her out the door of their cabin.
"Yes I'll go to the teen club even though I feel like I'm about to throw up because I'm so sea sick, sounds fun." Gabriella muttered to herself sarcastically as she made her way to the teen club.
When she got there she was rather surprised. There was karaoke, video games, ping pong tables, a disco ball, dance floor, and many more things along the same lines. She had to admit it looked fun, but she'd much rather be reading her book. Unfortunate for her though, her mom had taken it away so she couldn't finish even though she was to the last two chapters.
She sat down on one of the retro looking couches where no one else was sitting and watched some of the other people in there attempting to sing 'Bye, Bye, Bye.' She was so absorbed in watching them, she didn't even notice anyone sit down next to her until they spoke.
"Man I hate NSYNC." said a boy with brown hair.
"They're okay." Gabriella responded, surprised anyone would actually come up randomly to her and talk about NSYNC of all things.
"So forced on this trip?" He asked looking at her. He noticed that she looked a little green.
"Yup. Of course my parents forgot that I get seasick." Gabriella responded a little awkwardly, kind of wanting him to go away.
"No offense but, I kind of gathered that since you look a little green." The guy responded. Gabriella thought that was a bit too forward of him. She laughed a little anyway.
"I've lost about five pounds and we've only been on the ship for three days." Man was her stomach upset. This guy wasn't helping it at all, making her rather nervous since she wasn't having that much problems talking to a guy for the first time in her life.
"Where do you live?" He asked, moving slightly closer to her.
"Bend, Oregon for another two weeks. Then we're moving to Mackinac, Michigan for my mom's work." Gabriella responded looking at him rather nervously.
"Dude! I live in Mackinac! Oh, sorry. Didn't mean to call you dude." He said apologetically.
"Really?" She said hopefully. It would be nice to have a friend for once.
"Yup! Wow, imagine that. My mom tells me to go to the teen club to meet people from other parts of the world so I can have a pen pal and I end up meeting someone who is moving to where I live. What are the odds?" He asked smiling. "Oh sorry, my name is Edward. Edward Mills."
Gabriella took his outreached hand and shook it.
"Gabriella Montez, it's nice to meet you." She replied smiling.
"It's very nice to meet you too." He replied smiling widely.
Abby waved a hand in front of Gabriella's face, "Gabi, are you ok?"
"Y-yeah." Gabriella snapped out of her memory, "Sorry."
Abby thought for a second, then gasped, "Hawai'i! Oh Gabi! I'm so sorry! I had forgotten that's where you had met... him."
"No, it's fine." Gabriella smiled, but her mind was still thinking about her past that the smile came out empty and weak.
Abby bit her lip but didn't press the matter.
By the way, no we didn't spell Hawai'i wrong. A Hawai'ian bus driver told Star so when she was there(not sure about how to spell Hawai'ian though)! So continuing with the Hawai'ian theme... Mahalo (thank you) for reading and reviewing! We appreciate it!
