The next day at school, Gabriella walked into school. She was still thinking about how she could have made Troy happy and sighed before taking her seat in the auditorium with the other juniors. Taylor and Sharpay took seats on either sides of her.
"Hey, Gabby," Sharpay and Taylor said happily. Gabriella smiled. Despite what happened the previous night Gabriella couldn't help but be happy.
The reason why all the juniors were in the auditorium was because on Friday morning they would be going on a trip to either Waterland or Snowland (I made that up) and they had to pay for the trip. Gabriella, Sharpay, and Taylor had decided on Waterland because for the Christmas holidays they were going to Snowland.
"Where are the guys going?" Sharpay asked looking around the auditorium.
"Who knows." Gabriella said rolling her eyes.
"Why are you acting like that?" Taylor asked concerned.
"I don't know. I never asked Troy." Gabriella said. "You could have asked Chad and you, Sharpay, could've asked Zeke."
"Geesh, look who got up on the wrong side of the bed today." Sharpay said rolling her eyes. Gabriella looked around the auditorium and finally Mrs. Liner came out and stood on the stage.
"Good morning, juniors. You are all here to pay for you trips that, I am sure, you will have a good time on." Mrs. Liner said smiling. Everyone cheered and she finally got them to quiet down. "Okay, if you are going to pay for Snowland please step over to the left side of the auditorium. If you are going to Waterland step over to the right of the auditorium. Get in a line, please."
Everyone stood up and went to their lines. Gabriella noticed that Chad, Troy, Zeke, and Jason were all waiting closer to the front of the line for Waterland. She groaned hoping that she could avoid Troy the weekend. I thought he liked snowboarding, she thought drastically.
"This is going to be the sickest weekend, Gabby." Troy said later as he walked her home. They were holding hands and people who passed glared at them angrily. Especially girls.
"Yeah, but I thought you liked snowboarding!" Gabriella said.
"I do but my parents always take me snowboarding. Plus, we can spend time together. Alone without any interruptions from our parents." Troy said squeezing her hand slightly.
"Yeah, no annoying sisters." Gabriella added. Troy nodded and they smiled at each other. Gabriella wasn't really smiling happily. She just didn't want him to know how torn she was.
