Chapter 3

A large moving truck pulled into the driveway of Gabriella Montez's home. It was an early Saturday morning, and it was the day Sharpay would come to live with Gabriella and her mother, Maria. Troy stopped by early that day so he could help Gabriella with Sharpay moving in.

"Hey Troy" Gabriella said as she opened the door for Troy.

"Hey Gabs!" Troy said as he gave Gabriella a kiss on the cheek.

Gabriella smiled. "Troy, you don't have to do this, you know."

"But I want to. I don't want you breaking anything from lifting Sharpay's heavy boxes of shoes."

Gabriella giggled. "If only Sharpay would move in this afternoon, not this morning."

Troy smiled as he looked down at Gabriella's Juicy Couture sweats (pic in profile). She NEVER wore sweats in front of anyone (except Troy) so he knew she must've been pretty tired. But no matter what Gabriella wore, Troy always thought she looked good.

All of a sudden, the doorbell rang. Gabriella opened the door to find Sharpay standing there, wearing a cute Primp top, and dark skinny jeans (pic in profile).

"Hey guys!" Sharpay said as she jumped over to hug Gabriella. "Oh my God, I got no sleep last night, I was so excited! We're gonna be roomies!" Sharpay giggled, letting go of Gabriella. "Cute sweats, by the way! So Juicy! G and P would be proud!"

"Um, thanks, Shar. And ya, it's gonna be fun being "roomies." By the way, your room is the guestroom, down the hall, to the left." Gabriella said, pointing in the direction of the room.

Sharpay ran down the hall to see her new room.

"Wow! I love it! It's fabulous!" Sharpay yelled as she looked at the room. It was a very pretty room. It had dark brown and blue accents, and different patterns for the draps, and throw blanket (pic in profile)

"My mom just had it redone. I hope she doesn't paint it bright pink!" Gabriella said, jokingly.

Troy laughed. "I wonder what your mom would say to that."

Gabriella could just invision her mom in that situation. "She would probably kick Sharpay out on the streets!" Gabriella said laughing.

Sharpay came running out of the room doing a "London Tipton" clap, and immediatly began bringing in her boxes.

"Ok, here's about a quater of my Chanel purses." Sharpay said, as she put down a large box.

3 moving men carried in 3 very large boxes. "And there's the other 3 quaters." Sharpay pointed to the men.

Gabriella and Troy walked outside to the big moving van and helped take out more boxes.

"Sharpay, what do you have in here?" Gabriella said, struggling with a big, heavy box.

"Oh, those are my Christian Louboutin shoes from last spring." Sharpay replied while filing her nails.

Troy took the box from Gabriella's arms.

"Thanks, Troy." Gabriella smiled.

"No problem, Gabs!" Troy yelled as he carried the box inside Gabriella's house.

Gabriella picked up a lighter box and carried it inside.

4 hours later, all of Sharpay's boxes were unpacked. Troy and Gabriella lay on the couch, while Sharpay went to go call her family to say she's all moved in.

"Who knew that one person could have enough for a big family." Troy said as he yawned.

"I know. I've never seen so many Louis Vuitton bags in one day." Gabriella replied while talking to Taylor on her MacBook.

gabriella_montez: hey taylor :)

taylor1814: r u sure? i mean, he could just be pretending to make u happy. he rly loves u, so thats wat he wants

Gabriella looked over at Troy. He was laying on the couch, asleep.

'Maybe Taylor's right...' Gabriella thought.

gabriella_montez: taylor, i g2g. ill call u 2mmorow. bye! :)

taylor1814: k. cya gabby! :)

Gabriella turned off her MacBook and went over to the couch and lay next to Troy. He woke up and smiled.

"Hi." he said, smiling but tired. He put his arm around Gabriella.

"Hey..." Gabriella said, not looking at him.

"What wrong?" Troy immediatly sat up, very concerned.

There was just silence for a moment.

"Are you ok...I mean...with everything?" Gabriella asked, finally looking at Troy.

"What do you mean?" Troy asked, shifting over.

"Well,you see...I know that with Sharpay moving in here, everything's going to be a bit different, but...well..." Before Gabriella could finish her sentence, Sharpay walked into the living room.

"Hey you guys!" Sharpay smiled. "What's up?"

"Just talking, Shar" Gabriella lightly smiled.

"Troy, it's 11pm, shouldn't you be at home?" Sharpay asked as she sat on the couch next to Troy and Gabriella.

Troy got up, looking sad. "Ya, I guess I better go..."

"Troy wait!" Gabriella quickly stood up. "I want you here..."

"But Gabriella, I wanted my first night here to be a girls-only slumber party!" Sharpay whined.

"Sharpay, look. I'm really happy that you moved in but...I really love Troy, so YOU aren't the one who decides of he stays!" Gabriella said, walking over to Troy.

"Gabs, I'm fine if you only want to hang out with Sharpay tonight." Troy forced out a smile.

"No, I don't only want to hang out with Sharpay. I have to live with her, remember?" Gabriella smiled at Troy.

Troy let out a slight laugh. "Ok, I'll stay."

The next morning, Gabriella and Sharpay went to the mall. They walked into American Eagle, and Gabriella took a clipboard from a worker there, and handed it to Sharpay.

"What's this?" Sharpay questioned.

"A resume." Replied Gabriella. "You're getting a job."
