Chapter 5: Looks Like Things Are Gonna Get Interesting This Summer.
WARNING: There is cussing in this chapter, like a lot, well not really but there may be some strong cuss words in this. So don't be offended or don't come to me crying kay? Kay.
"Oh it's so very nice to meet you Troy!" Mrs. Montez gushed. Mrs. Bolton had just introduced Troy to her. They chatted a little bit more until Mrs. Montez said she had someone she wanted Troy to meet. She guided him through the crowd looking for the person. It was definitely a good ten minutes before Mrs. Montez found that someone. Mrs. Montez apologized for taking too long but Troy didn't really mind because it's not like he had anything good to do.
Mrs. Montez called someone over. Troy couldn't identify that certain person because of some people standing in front of him. Those people suddenly walked away and behind them stood…
"Gabriella?" Troy said not believing it. Of course he had thought of that possibility but maybe he was just obsessing.
"Um mom?" Gabriella looked at her mom who looked confused.
"Wait… you two… already know each other?" Mrs. Montez asked frowning.
"Um yeah sorta… why?" Gabriella said while Troy just stood there dumbstruck.
"Well, I met Troy and he's very nice so I wanted you to meet him." Mrs. Montez explained.
"Are you… trying to set me up with him or something?" Gabriella asked in disbelief.
"Uh… maybe?" Mrs. Montez blushed.
"Ugh mom! What is wrong with you?" Gabriella asked raising her voice a bit.
"Gabriella come down. You will not raise your voice." Mrs. Montez said sternly.
"I'm so sorry Troy." Mrs. Montez apologized to Troy who was still standing there looking at the two women arguing or more like fighting.
Mrs. Montez sighed and left not wanting Troy to see how ugly this could turn out to be. People always thought Gabriella and her mom had a fantastic relationship but that wasn't really the truth.
"Sorry about that…" Gabriella apologized again as Troy simply nodded his head in response. Both just stood there in an awkward silence.
"So um you're a cheerleader…" Troy said trying to start a conversation.
"Uh, yeah. Head cheerleader." Gabriella looked around trying to look for someone able to save her.
"Yeah, Sherrie told me." Troy told her.
"Mhm…" Gabriella nodded as she stiffened. Yuck, Sherrie. How can someone so… Troy, could be together with someone so… Sherrie.
"Why don't you guys like each other?" Troy asked, not really minding if he was getting personal or if she had only met Gabriella once.
Gabriella shrugged her shoulders unimportantly. "There has been problems with us since kindergarten. She stole my freaking crayolas."
Troy laughed thinking she was kidding.
Gabriella giggled just a little. "I'm not lying Troy. She really did, she's even proud of it."
"Hm… I see. But Sherrie's a good person. You should give her a chance." Troy said trying to convince her. Although he wasn't really sure why he was doing this.
"Pfff, a good person? Sherrie? Puh-lease." Gabriella snorted.
"Well I can't tell you haven't given her a chance so why not giver her one now?" Troy said simply not knowing he was making Gabriella very mad and frustrated.
"What the hell?" Gabriella exploded. "You don't even know what's going on between us. You Don't even know her. She's been with you for like, what? A week. All you probably know about her is that she's what you boys call 'hot', she has big boobs, and a nice smile."
"What is wrong with you? I do know about her I don't understand what you're saying."
"No…" Gabriella shook her head laughing. "Troy, my friend, here's what you don't understand. You're going out with a bitch… not just a bitch but the bitch… The bitch who hooks up with every single guy. Has stolen basically all my past boyfriends and steals fucking CRAYOLAS! And I loved those crayolas okay?"
Troy was angry. What the hell did Gabriella think she was to be insulting Sherrie. She may have met her before him but she didn't know anything about her. He did. She was nice, and perky, and… yeah. A lot more stuff.
Troy pretended to be surprised. "Really? Cause you seem pretty bitchy to me."
Gabriella's mouth hung open immediately. She was going to turn around to leave but as her head turned something caught her eye. Gabriella grabbed the huge pitcher of water that the waiter was carrying and dumped it on Troy. Soaked him from head to toe.
"What the…" Troy said as he spit out some water that had gotten in his mouth. The waiter protested about his water but Gabriella ignored him.
"Now, I suppose you regret what you just said." Gabriella put on a fake smile. "Have a fucking nice day Troy Bolton."
--
"So… he called you a bitch?" Sharpay asked.
"Sharpay sweetie, for the thousandth time; YES!" Gabriella said as she plopped down on one of the chairs. The reunion was over but they had to stay and 'clean-up'.
"I'm sorry it's just he's so, perfect." Sharpay said closing her eyes probably going into another one of her daydreams.
"I thought you had Zeke." Taylor's eyebrows arched.
"Uh, hah well I'm not exactly a one-man woman." Sharpay smirked.
"Ew, what the hell?" Taylor asked.
"Guys, I've got an issue here. Mind if we get back to it?" Gabriella smiled sweetly at them.
"Uh yeah sure. So you say he told you to give Sherrie another chance?" Sharpay asked.
"U-hum. But who the hell gave him permission to go ahed and tell me what I should do? And more importantly- he doesn't even know a tad bit of what is going on with me and that chick." Gabriella shook her head.
She was truly pissed because of this. She never knew Troy would be the pushy kind. And he had definitely surprised her when Sherrie said she was his girlfriend. I mean. he seemed like a decent guy, ok more like a perfect guy. So why would he go straight to Sherrie? Gabriella suddenly got scared, was she jealous of Sherrie? No way Jose. Not ever in a million years.

…let's hang out shar -yawn- im bored : ( Gabriella texted Sharpay. She was bored as crap and Taylor was at this other thing with her parents. All of her siblings were out and she had no one but Sharpay.
Srry gabs, but I can't I'm going out with zeke squeals Sharpay texted back, quickly putting all the stuff she needed in her bag as she finished.
I h8 you : ) I have no one to hang out with. Puh-lease tell me you'll cancel it and hang out with me. Gabriella's fingers typed rapidly.
No can do : ) OMGGG the doorbell rang! I have to go and gabs don't you dare text me while we're on the date, I beg of you gabi kthnks bye xoxo. Sharpay closed her sidekick and trew it in her bag.
She headed downstairs and opened the door. She greeted Zeke and announced she was going out.
At Gabriella's house…
"Hm… she never said anything about not spying." Gabriella shrugged as she shut her sidekick, grabbed her purse and car keys and headed out. Now the only thing she had to figure out was… where did they go?
Her first thought was the mall. She circled the huge mall for about 20 minutes. Yeah, that fast. She didn't spot them once. She went to the little Italian café and surprisingly enough, there they were. Wow, she never thought a basket-ball guy would be the coffee type of guy. Although there was a chance of Sharpay making them go there.
She entered very quietly. Trying to make the bells on the doorknob to not jingle. She was quite successful at that. She sat in the booth behind them. Nothing interesting so far.
Just flirting, giggling, nicknames and… 'Oh my God he did not just say that. Ew.' Gabriella thought.
Those little annoying jingling stupid bells grabbed Gabriella's attention. The door opened and Sherrie walked in… holding someone's hand. And that hand was definitely not Troy's. It was… Ryan Evans's?!
Okay Gabriella was definitely lost now. What was Sherrie doing, holding Troy's hand?! This was so messed up. Was she cheating on Troy? She never knew Ryan was friends with Ryan. Did Sharpay know he was here, with Sherrie. She had to find out.

"I saw you today." Gabriella said into the receiver as soon as the voice at the toher end, answered.
"Um who is this." Sherrie asked.
"It's Gabriella." Gabriella said sweetly.
"Um… so?" Sherrie asked still very clueless about what Gabriella was talking about.
"Today. The coffee place. Ryan Evans." she summarized. She heard Sherrie curse under her breath. Gabriella smirked; 1 point for Montez.
"What are you talking about?" Sherrie still tried to play clueless.
"Oh quit the act Sherrie. I know you know what I'm talking about." Gabriella said.
"No, I do not know that I know… what you're talking about?" Sherrie said. Oh was she hopeless or what?
Gabriella laughed out loud. "Well, just wanted to call because I guess you can say goodbye to Troy."
"Wait! How do you know I'm even going out with him. Because I just started yester…" Sherrie didn't finish.
"Busted. Yeah um anyways; look I don't know because I might just have some sympathy for you but don't count on it because most likely; I won't. Byeeeee! Kisses" Gabriella hung up before Sherrie could answer.
She knew she was being evil. But this was Sherrie we're talking about. She had done so many things to Gabriella in the past. She just couldn't forgive her. It was all too much. Gabriella sighed as she went outside to go for a walk.
On the way back home, something great hit her. A great plan. To get revenge at Bolton. She smiled, the plan was simple; she would just not say anything to Troy and just let him find out on his own. Perfect.
"Hey, Gabriella! Wait up!" Gabriella turned around and saw Troy hogging towards her.
"What?!" She said coolly.
"Look, I just wanted to say I'm sorry for everything I said the other day. You were right, I don't know what's going on between you two and I shouldn't force you to do something you don't want to do. Because I don't even know you anyway. So, I'm sorry." Troy sighed. So did Gabriella, why did he have to be so damn good-looking.
"Whatever." Gabriella said finally.
"That's all I get? I sincerely apologized and all I get is a careless 'whatever'?" Troy said not believing the girl.
Gabriella shrugged. "Well yeah, what were you expecting, a kiss?" she asked not really thinking about what she was saying. She looked into his eyes. Brown meeting blue. She had realized that he had blue eyes, but she never had noticed they were this gorgeous.
"Maybe…" Troy whispered not knowing what he was saying either. They were lost in each other's eyes. They slowly leaned in and their lips met. Sparks flew through every single inch of their bodies. They started out with a soft kiss but it turned into a passionate one. They were hungry for each other.
Gabriella bluntly pulled apart after a few minutes. "This is….it's…it's n-n-ot right." she stuttered.
"But yet it felt so right." she whispered to herself.
"I know. Um…" Troy rubbed the back of his neck. 'Oh God, how sexy' Gabriella thought as she looked at him.
"Um… I think w-w-we should just forget t-t-that this happened, y-y-you know?" Gabriella said.
"Um yeah, well… see you around." Troy said as he turned around in his heel.
"Um yeah bye." Gabriella set running home. Running as fast as her legs allowed her to. Tears freely flowed down her cheeks, not really knowing why was she crying. Not really knowing how she was feeling right now. It wasn't a single feeling; it was a mixture. Angry, Frustrated, Rushed, Guilty, Strange, and finally; ecstatic.
She arrived at her house, ran upstairs not even bothering to look around at who was at the house. She slammed her door and collapsed at her bed. Sobbing freely.
She had just kissed a complete stranger. Well not stranger, but she barely knew a thing about him. 'Except he's very very good-looking' Gabriella thought. 'Ugh, focus.'
"I need an aspirin." Gabriella groaned as she rubbed her temples trying to calm the massive headache she had.
After a few hours of thinking, a bubble bath, and an aspirin; she had decided she wouldn't tell anybody about this and stick to the plan. Maybe, just maybe, this so-called 'attraction' for Bolton would just go away. Maybe it was just an 'over the week' crush. Pff, she had them all the time, didn't she? At least she hoped.

"Hey Shar?" Gabriella said as she grabbed the light blue nail polish and opened it. The yucky scent of the nail polishes filled the room as the girls did their nails.
"Hm?"
"Where was Ryan yesterday?" Gabriella asked hoping Sharpay wouldn't get the wrong idea.
"I don't know, I mean I'm her twin sister but I don't know where he goes 24/7." Sharpay shrugged. Gabriella simply nodded. A few minutes of silence later, Sharpay gasped.
"You don't have a…"
"Ew, no I would never have a crush on him." Gabriella assured her before she finished.
"I mean no offense but he's not my urgh type." Gabriella hurriedly said.
"Yeah, yeah, I know what you mean I just thought for a second there that maybe you were like obsessed with him or stalking him." Sharpay giggled.
"Stalking is creepy." Taylor stated deciding to participate in the conversation.
Gabriella giggled. "Yeah I know, that'd be freaky if someone started stalking you."
"I know. Ugh now I'm creeped out. Thanks Gabi." Sharpay glared at her.
"Anytime Shar. Anytime." Gabriella nodded smiling.
Later that day…
Gabriella pressed the buttons on her sidekick, calling a not to familiar number.
"Hello?" Ryan's voice came through the receiver.
"Um hi Ryan, this is Gabi." Gabriella said shyly.
"Oh hi…" Ryan greeted her. Gabriella heard someone calling him in the backgroun, perfect opportunity.
"Who's that?" Gabriella asked trying not to sound too nosy.
"Oh um that's Sherrie." Ryan informed as he told her something Gabriella didn't understand.
"Oh… are you two guys… um going out or something?" Gabriella asked hoping to get a no.
"Um yeah sorta." Ryan smiled even though Gabriella couldn't see.
"Oh… well I gotta go bye." Gabriella abruptly ended the call.
What the hell? So she was cheating on Troy? I mean Sherrie had already told her but maybe she was starting drama. But now she knew for sure.
"Huh," Gabriella said to herself. "looks like things are gonna get interesting this summer."
