Dedicated to the guy who washed and dried his cell phone before wondering what the loud clanking noise was in the washer and dryer.

After asked very nicely, we're going to give it another chance and not block the reviews. If it is abused again, they will be blocked with no warning. Thank you for all the reviews everyone!

Lyric contest again! We're looking for the artist and song title we used in this chapter. You will get a character named after you if you get it right. This time it's actually a 90s song. No it's not the song we used for the chapter name).

These Boots are Made for Walkin' - Nancy Sinatra

Somewhere Just Outside of Detroit, Michigan

9:00 AM

"I don't want the top down."

"I do!"

"No!"

"Yes!"

"But I said no!"

"Why should I care you -"

"Guys! Shut up! The top is going down no matter what you two want so we can blast our music and not listen to you two complain!" Abby yelled, interrupting Troy and Edward's bickering.

"Why are we going all the way to Detroit to pick up your friend?" Edward asked while the top started to go down, which of course caused him to put his finger in between the gaps where the top was and the car. He kept putting his finger there and taking it out right away, trying not to get it caught.

Abby took a deep breath and let it out, trying not to scream.

"Because, as you should know having lived here the majority of your life that the Pellston airport 

isn't an international one. She's flying in from Spain Smart One." Gabriella answered for Abby from her seat in the front.

Abby glanced in her rear view mirror and almost had a heart attack. "EDWARD! IF YOU GET YOUR FINGER CAUGHT I'LL MAKE SURE IT STAYS THERE!" She yelled as he almost got it caught as the top finally was all the way down.

This whole scene caused Troy to start a silent fit of giggles from his seat behind Abby, who fortunately couldn't see. Edward glared at him, made to hit him, but thought better of it when Troy quit giggling and flexed his fingers menacingly.

"How long until we get there?" Edward whinnied as he continued to glare at Troy.

Gabriella rolled her eyes and chanced a look at Abby. She was turning red, not a good sign.

"If you don't shut up you're going to be hitchhiking your way home. Just watch the mileage signs and figure it out for yourself before your brother is once again, an only child." Abby said slowly as her knuckles turned white from gripping the steering wheel so hard.

"I'm the best man. You wouldn't ruin your wedding that way." Edward smirked.

Abby screamed, "If there was a cliff in this part of the state and this wasn't a classic car I'd so drive off it!"

"Dude, just as I thought, all words and no balls."

Abby slammed on her breaks and pulled to the side of the Highway, flipping on her four-ways, "Edward Brian Mills, get your friggen butt out of my car! Why'd I even bring you in the first place? GET OUT! I'm not going to listen to you for the rest of the drive down to Detroit and then the five or so hours back! OUT!"

Edward froze and didn't move, "It's illegal to hitchhike."

"So? Then walk if you are afraid of the cops! Or, here's a thought! Use your brain and use your cell phone to call someone!"

"I didn't bring that!"

"Then go use a pay phone! I'm sure you have a quarter. There's an exit a half mile back and I'm sure there's an old pay phone at the gas station! Now OUT!" Abby unbuckled herself and leaned 

over the seat, pushing him towards the door.

"It's illegal to walk along the highway!"

"Here's a quarter call someone who cares!" Abby said searching for a quarter in her purse and throwing it at him. "Get on the other side of the fence! Now out!"

"That's all rough farm land! There's cows and bulls!"

"What? Afraid? Out!" Abby gave a push and he tumbled over the side of the car and onto the grass.

"But, Abigail! I'm almost your brother!"

Abby stiffly buckled herself back in, "Don't call me that and don't bring up facts that will only hurt you more! Get going!" She swatted his hand away from her car and put it into gear.

"But... you can't do this!"

"You've been messing where you shouldn't have been a messing." Abby grumbled and then pointed at his skate shoes, "Boots are made for walking, and so that's just what they'll be doing. Let go of my car and get walking!" she swatted his hand again and checked to see that no cars were coming, she flipped off her four ways and switched on her blinker and speed off after a green SUV passed her, leaving Edward Mills on the side of the highway.

"I can't believe he didn't bring his cell phone!" Troy said as they pulled away, him looking behind them attempting not to laugh at the look on Edward's face.

"Some things never change Troy. You're talking about the guy who managed to wash and dry his cell phone before wondering why the washing machine and dryer were louder than usual." Gabriella replied laughing. So far, the day was an exceptionally great one for her. Well at least what had happened in the last ten minutes. "You do realize you're going to have to pick him up on the way back though right?"

"Yeah, he can wait the two and a half hours on the road before we get him though." Abby responded, "And that's still not preventing me from letting Alba's luggage riding in the car while he has the trunk."

"Alba! I'm glad you made it!" Abby said as the two jumped up and down while hugging. "I'd like to introduce you to my friends." She said as they broke apart. "This is Gabriella Montez and her boyfriend Troy Bolton."

"It's nice to finally meet you Gabriella! Abby is always talking about you." Alba said smiling at her.

"Same here! It's nice to meet the famous Alba!" Gabriella said as they briefly hugged.

"Nice to meet you too Troy." Alba said to him as he smiled widely at her.

"Want some help?" He asked eying her luggage.

"Yes please."

"So I'm very sorry but on the way back we have to pick someone else up." Abby said as they got into her car.

"Why?" Alba asked, looking very confused.

"Well Abby sort of left her brother-in-law to be on the side of the road on the way here." Gabi said laughing.

"Really? I thought you hadn't met him yet!" Alba said as they started on their way back.

"Yes well he's actually my ex-boyfriend." Gabriella said frowning.

"Basically he's an idiot." Said Abby.
