Alright here's the fourth chapter. ENJOY.

"Ugh! Taylor" Gabriella sighed flopping down on her friends bed "Why must he be so good looking, like what the hell? The one guy I find down here who I don't know is probably the most good looking guy on the planet has to do the one thing I hate the most."

"Well are you sure he does it? I mean he could have just been with his friends..and they were doing it" Taylor asked trying to reassure her.

"No he obviously was. Oh no Taylor, this is bad. I think.. I think I like him"

"WHAT!!!" Taylor gasped looking over at Gabriella "Brie are you serious? You've only known him for …. A day" Taylor said raising her eyebrow.

"I know. But you know when you meet someone. And you have that undeniable chemistry with them. It feels like that." Gabriella said, her eyes softening. "And I don't know, I've never felt that way before.

"Well Brie, it's your call. If you want to be with someone who is exactly like your dad, then be my guest." Taylor said annoyed picking up a magazine off her desk and flipping through it.

"You're right" Gabriella said looking out the window "The last thing I need is another him."

"Brie, you know I didn't mean it like that….well okay maybe I did. But don't get upset. I'm just trying to look out for you. I don't want you to go through that twice." Taylor said moving over to her best friend and wrapping her arms around her.

Gabriella let her head drop on Taylor's shoulder and accepted her embrace.

"Yeah, okay. I'll just try to ignore him…" Gabriella agreed.

"Alright class, I'd like BOTH of your assignments. Yes the TWO of them, on my desk right here. In a neat pile. Chop chop!" Mr. Jones said clapping his hands.

Troy turned around in his desk and faced Gabriella. She hadn't acknowledged him once since they entered the classroom. He knew it was his fault, with the stunt at the beach.

"Want me to take yours up?" He asked. Her cold eyes snapped up to him, and she looked at him with a grim look. "No, I'll take my own" She said firmly, grabbing her papers and heading up to the front of the room.

Troy still sat facing her now empty desk and sighed to himself. He needed to fix this. He jumped out of the desk and headed towards the front of the class. He walked up behind Gabriella and whispered in her ear. "We need to talk". He reached over her and placed his papers on the desk. Then grabbed her by the wrist and pulled her out of the classroom.

"What?" Gabriella asked whipping around to face him anger evident in her tone.

"Look Brie.."

"Gabriella" Gabriella interrupted folding her arms across her chest.

"Gabriella.. I'm sorry about the beach. If I knew you didn't like people smoking pot then I wouldn't have done it that day".

"It's not just that. I have my reasons." Gabriella stated heading back to the classroom.

"Gabriella listen. I.. I really do want to stop. You know you grow up telling yourself that you won't do these things, like you won't grow up like that. But one day you try it because you think it's cool, then you keep doing it more and more and you can't stop. But seriously I feel so polluted."

"That's how you feel?" Gabriella smiled meeting his eyes. Troy nodded -

"BOLTON! MONTEZ! INSIDE CLASS NOW! WHAT DO YOU THINK YOUR DOING??? THIS IS CLASS TIME NOT MINGLE TIME! WE WILL ALL BE TALKING AFTER CLASS." Mr. Jones spat, ushering them inside.

"She told me she liked him last night" Taylor whispered to Kelsi while they were busy coping notes.

"What! She likes him!" Kelsi shot back, grinning at Taylor

"GABRIELLA LIKES TROY!!!" Emily squealed turning around to look at Taylor and Kelsi, her mouth dropped open. "No way! No way!"

"She does?" Chad asked turning around in his desk.

"Is that really any of your business Chad? No I don't think so" Taylor shot back glaring at him.

Chad held up his hands in protection "Hey I was just asking, I guess you wouldn't care what Troy thinks of her anyways" Chad said smiling to himself and turning back around.

"What? He said something about her?" Kelsi asked yanking on his shoulder

Chad laughed "Welcome to the world of Troy".

"Brie! Brie!!" Emily yelled running over to her friend.

"What?" Gabriella asked smiling at her friends flushed face

"Meet me at my locker in 5, I have to tell you something!" Emily said as she rushed off into the crowd of students.

After putting her own books and supplies in her own locker she headed over to Emily's, after rounding the corner she noticed a bunch of Troy's friends huddling at a nearby locker all starring at her. She gave them a questioning look before a pair of hands pushed her into a locker.

"Okay," Emily began whispering in her ear "Troy said that he thinks your really hot and that he wants to ask you out"

"What?" Gabriella gasped her face turning red.

"Can I please tell him you like him!! Please Please!!" Emily asked her eyes begging Gabriella to say yes.

Gabriella looked over at the group of boys who were trying not to make it obvious that they were trying to hear what they were talking about.

"No! And can you be a little more quieter, people can obviously hear us" Gabriella mused pursing her lips and looking around.

"Okay fine, I'll be right back" Emily said as she backed up and headed towards the group of basketball players.

"No No No" Gabriella panicked grabbing her friend by the arm, "Don't you dare go and tell them"

"I won't. I promise" Emily said. A smile played on her lips as she backed away and headed towards the boys.

"So" Chad demanded

"She's happy about it, you can tell" Emily said smiling

"So she likes him for sure?" Zeke shot up

"Duh" Emily said giving him a irritated glance

"Oh man, Troy's gunna die" Chad said high fiving some of his friends. "Aight, see you later Em." Chad said as they all walked off.
