Flashback

Gabriella sat alone on her porch swing. There was no one outside, and the rain clouds were starting to roll in.

She gazed off into the dark sky and started thinking about her life.

" Where did we go wrong? I know we're young, but…"

Gabriella saw the small outline of the rain slowly dripping onto the grass before her.

" I thought…this would work. That we'd be together forever"

Gabriella shook her head at the childish statement she had made.

" Life's not a fairytale..."

The rain picked up now, the sound of it against the tree leaves was soothing to the ear. Her wind chime picked up the graceful breeze.

" …And, I guess you're not my prince."

Gabriella sadly lifted herself off the swing and walked into the nearly empty house.

She looked around at the barren walls, where pictures used to hang, now it was only a wall. She gazed at the brown boxes, piled up in the center of nearly every room. With all her keepsakes and memorabilia of her so called happy life.

Then she reached their room.

Gabriella squeezed her eyes tight, and slowly reached out her hand and twisted the doorknob.

The door painfully screeched open and Gabriella opened her eyes.

Her eyes wandered the walls, lingering on the pictures that still hung.

She hadn't touched his stuff. She didn't have the heart to.

The house was just as much his as it was hers, they bought it together.

The bedroom was the only room they had ever completely unpacked.

Gabriella stepped in and walked over to her bed, she lightly drug her finger around the design in the bedpost.

She walked over to her vanity and sat down on the chair. She gazed into the pictures sitting on the top.

Her and Troy laughing, her and Troy singing, her and Troy sleeping, her and Troy kissing.

Gabriella couldn't keep it in. She reached out and gently picked up the one of them laughing. She played with the edges of the picture frame as a small tear fell down her cheek.

The more she stared at the picture, the more she cried. She finally put the picture down, and laid her head on the top of the vanity.

The cool tile was welcomed on her flushed face.

After a few moments, her cell phone began ringing.

" Hello?" Gabriella asked shakily

" Hey Sweetie, are you about ready to go?" Gabriella's mom asked with sympathy

" Um, yeah…sure"

Gabriella swiftly wiped her eyes, " Why, where are you?"

" I'm right here."

Gabriella turned around and saw her mom leaning on the doorframe.

Seeing her mom made Gabriella break down once again. Her already puffy eyes once again filled with tears.

Mrs. Montez walked over to Gabriella and lovingly rubbed her back.

" I just don't understand mom." Gabriella cried

" I thought…. I thought, we were going to grow old together! Watch our kids have kids, and…. and…"

Gabriella's sobs took over the conversation.

Mrs. Montez didn't know what to say, nothing could really ease her daughter's pain.

" I've got to get out of here mom." Gabriella said

Her mom looked down at her, " I know." She said simply

--------

" I'm gonna' miss you so much!" Taylor said through light tears.

" I'm gonna' miss you too!" Gabriella said as she hugged her friend.

" Bye Gabby" Chad said sweetly as he also gave his friend a hug.

" I refuse to talk to you! You're just good at making me cry!" Sharpay exclaimed, " Just give me a hug you freaky math girl!"

Gabriella giggled then also hugged her friend.

After getting through all her high school friends, Gabriella walked up to her mom.

" I'm gonna' miss you mom." She said as she gave a sweet smile.

" I'll miss you too honey!" Mrs. Montez said as she engulfed her daughter in a warm hug.

" Flight 2201, with nonstop service, to New York Laguardia would like to begin its pre-boarding procedure with our first class…"

" That's my flight." Gabriella said as she pulled away from her friends and family. She picked up her luggage and turned back towards her loved ones.

" Promise you'll write?" Taylor asked after getting one last hug.

" Everyday!" Gabriella replied.

She looked around the airport, and spotted her exit. She started walking towards the jet way.

She felt her heart skip a beat, and almost second-guessed her decision. She slowly turned around one last time.

Disappointment over came her body; she gave a small smile, and waved.

Gabriella quietly gave the flight attendant her ticket, and was out of sight.
