"Gaby, wake up honey"Miss Montez called to her daughter.
"Mmm 5 more minutes Mami," Gabriella groaned lazily.
"Ok sweetie just hurry up"she called. Gabriella had a long night, she kept on thinking about Alan, about Troy, but mostly about the next day. How was she even going to talk to him? Even wore what if he talked to her first? She barely slept, and today she would face her old heartbreaking middle school Crush.
She jumped out of bed, took a quick shower and stood in front of her closet. She stared at it for about a minute figuring out what to wear. She took out a pair of jeans and a white long sleeved shirt. She went into her bathroom and put very little make up, and some of her favorite Hollister perfume. She sighed as she smelled it.
"Hey mom" Gabriella said. "Hey baby, tough night huh?" she said. "Yeah, I did a lot of thinking…."Gabriella softly said. "And talking too." Her mom responded. "What!?"a surprised Gabriella asked. "Yeah honey, you were talking in you sleep, you kept moaning the name Talan and Roy or something like that" Her mom said. Gabriella's face went scarlet red and said "Oh that's weird, ummm I was just thinking about a test I have today." "Sure honey good luck on that" Her mom said sarcastically. Gabriella just laughed and said goodbye to her mom.
As she entered the bus she sat next to the window as usual and opened her book. She didn't really have any real friends in the bus, and she was quite shy so she just read. She was so into her reading she didn't see somebody sit next to her. She turned to see who it was and just saw a blonde boy, the bus usually was filled with people so she was used to sitting next to someone, she didn't even pay attention to him. Then he asked her "Umm can I borrow a pen, mine just ran out of ink…" She didn't even look at him she just looked for one in her backpack and said "Here you go." As she made eye contact with him and recognized Alan, she gasped and dropped the pen.
She bent down to pick it up at the same time Alan did causing them to bump their heads. Gabriella couldn't help but to giggle and she managed to say "Im sorry." "Clumsy, clumsy Gabriella, you haven't changed a bit." Alan mocked. Gabriella just stared at him at looked away, she still remembered how he made her feel back at Trace Middle school.
"Oh come on Gabs, don't tell me you still hate me, that happened a long time ago!"Alan moaned. Gabriella didn't know what to say to him, thankfully they had arrived to school so she just rushed out the bus into East high.
She practically ran through the halls trying to find Taylor, and she could feel Alan rushing behind her. I was so close to forgetting him...Why does he have to show up right now? She turned right, and she was sure she lost him but then she heard a "Hey, hey slow down, why are you running?" "Huh?...Oh I was just…you know doing my early work out?" Gabriella answered nervously. "Yeah, running through the halls sure gives you quite a workout." Troy chuckled. Gabriella laughed and felt relieved she could no longer see Alan anywhere near.
"So how was basketball practice?" she asked. "Well…exhausting, atleast we get to practice for the musical today." He said with a smile. "Yeah, I still can't believe Im Minnie." Gabriella said. Troy looked at her in the eye and said "Off course I mean, you're pretty, and smart, and have a great personality…." Gabriella felt her stomach flip and was drowning in those blue eyes. "Gaby, you are perfect…"He said slowly. There was a moment of silence in which they both exchanged looks, then Troy realized what he was saying. "Perfect as Minnie!" He quickly said. Gabriella just answered with a faint "oh yeah…". "You are a perfect Arnold too…."she said. "Thanks" he answered.
They stood in awkardness looking down at the floor and then the first bell rung. Gabriella felt relieved and said, "Umm I have to get my stuff, I don't wanna be late to Miss Darbus class." She rushed to her locker and left Troy standing there. Perfect as Minnie? What is wrong with me? She is perfect as Gabriella…Of course she only thinks im perfect as Arnold… Troy kept on thinking, and then rushed to Miss Darbus class.
Troy entered the classroom, and stared at Gabriella remembering what had just happened…Wow, she is so beautiful, Now I just wish I could tell her… "Mr. Bolton, would you care to take a sit please?" Miss Darbus said. "Uh sure…sorry Miss" He said sheepishly. He walked to his usual sit next to Chad and Gabriella but he saw that a blonde boy was sitting there. He wanted to move the kid, but he wasn't about to fight for his seat in front of Gabriella that would be beyond lame. He just sat in the nearest empty sit he found, next to Sharpay and Ryan.
Gabriella felt chills run up her spine as she saw who had sat next to her. Hey Gabriella calm down, its not like he's gonna talk to you right? "Psst Psst Gaby…"taylor whispered. She threw passed a little folded piece of paper to Gabriella. It red:
Hey Gabs, wh's up with the blonde boi?...Is he new? What's he's deal?
-Tay
Gabriella grabbed a piece of paper wrote something on it and passed it to Taylor. Taylor grabbed the little paper and read it:
I don't noe, Why would I noe anyways?…..I just noe he's new….
-Gaby
Taylor stared at Gabriella for a minute and then looked at the blonde boy, she stared a little and started writing something else.
Well, that's why I was asking….u noe he's been staring u for practically the whole class now…
-TayGabriella read the note and immediately blushed, she turned towards Alan and when there eyes met she blushed even more. She turned away and rested her head on her hand. Alan just smirked and turned away. Taylor however stared suspiciously and thought Somethings up with these two, and Gabriella is not telling me I wonder what it is…
"Hey Troy! Why are you joining us today?" Sharpay gushed. "Yeah Troy you are always sitting next to Gabriella." Ryan followed. Troy blushed as he heard this and managed to answer "Uh well that new kid took my sit, besides I don't need to sit next to Gabriella anyways…." Off course I need to...Sharpay stared at Troy and the looked at the blonde boy. "Well, I think that new guy has his eyes on Montez…" Sharpay sing sang. "What!?!?!" Troy practically screamed. "I mean, why do you say that?" he tried to sound more calmed. Sharpay chuckled and said "Well by the way he's been staring at her all the class…Or should I say he's been checking her out." She lifted an eyebrow and looked at Troy. "Well, it's a free country he can look at anyone he wants.." Troy said in defense. Sharpay chuckled some more and said "Yeah it is a free country, he is free to make a move with Gabriella too you know." "And you are free to stop him too…but that would require you to accept your feelings first." Ryan continued. Troy glared at the two twins.
The bell finally rang and Gabriella rushed out of her seat and ran to talk to Taylor. "Taylor I need to tell you something." Gabriella whispered in her ear. "Is it about that blonde boy?...You know he's kinda hot…" Taylor said. Troy heard this and felt his blood boil and he felt really jealous so he said "What about this boy Gaby?" "Huh?.. Nothing I don't even know what Taylor's talking about!" Gabriella said glaring at Taylor. Taylor just smiled and grabbed Gabriella by the arm " Listen Troy there are something's Gabriella and I have to talk about see you in math!" Troy just stood there puzzled and very jealous. "Don't try to understand them, chicks are always complicated." Chad said patting him in the shoulder. "Yeah I guess…" Troy moaned.
