Happy Late Thanksgiving and Christmas! I'm sorry for not updating for a month; you all know how family is around these times of the months. LOL! But while I was away from my laptop, I was able to do some brainstorming on what I was going to update next. (One thing I wasn't able to do was get some "shopping shopping" done on Black Friday. Pissed me off. But that's another story...) So , just thought I'd let you know, I'm planning on updating my stories by the number of hits the story has received the past month, before I started updating.

So, at the top of the hits list, besides 101 Kisses and Chaylor Romance, it's....HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL MEETS LAGUNA BEACH! I've missed this story dearly and I have HUGE plans for this story....so why are you still reading this? Get started! GO!

Jason's truck pulled up to the front of the hotel, followed by the rest of the crew's cars. Soon, everyone started coming out of the cars and unloading their luggage, while the drivers set their cars up valet parking.

"Finally, we're here. In San Diego!" Sharpay smiled as she stretched her arms high.

"I know right; I was starting to wonder when these two back here would stop singing AC/DC songs," Kelan smiled, pointing at Lexie and Cameron.

"Dude, I can't hep it if the lady doesn't know about the best band ever," Cameron replied back, hugging Lexie.

"Whatever, AC/DC isn't the best band in the world," Zeke said, walking over to them.

"Says who?" Cameron joked.

"Says..." Zeke was gonna say who but Jason and Troy came back to the group.

"Hey guys! We got our room keys so choose your rooms wisely. There's gonna be one coed room so who's gonna take it?" Troy announced.

"That'll be for us," Chad said, taking a room key from Troy. He was carrying Taylor, bridal-style, while holding his bag on his shoulder strap.

"Of course, Danforth, now get your keys and luggage up to your rooms. We have free roam until 4pm, which is when we'll meet up at lunch at the dock. See you guys then!" Jason announced as everyone came to grab their room keys and head to their rooms. Their Junior Weekend has just begun.

Gabriella's House

While everyone was down in San Diego having the time of their life on Junior Weekend, Gabriella was back at home getting ready for her mother's wedding. She, along with Tessa, had been one of the bridesmaids and helped plan the wedding for the past few months. Now, here she was, looking as beautiful as ever in her David's Bridal light pink spaghetti-strapped dress. Gabriella smiled as she placed a soft touch of blush on her cheeks, awaiting the day that would forever change her life and her mother's.

She heard the door close and felt someone's arms come around her shoulders. Gabi smiled as she saw Tessa behind her, looking even more brilliant than herself, even though they were wearing the same dresses.

"You look beautiful, Gabs," Tessa smiled.

"And so do you," Gabriella replied back with a smile, "How did we manage to get this whole wedding together in just a few months?"

"Lots of time and patience, my dear," Tessa said as Gabriella turned to face her, "your mom is so proud of us for organizing it yet again,"

"I know, she's probably freaking out in her dressing room," Gabriella smiled.

"Of course! She also knows that it was hard for you to give up Junior Weekend for this," Tessa explained.

"I know, but my mom is way more important that some weekend with my buds," Gabriella said back.

"Including Troy?" Tessa asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Yes! We're only just dating right now," Gabriella answered, "he hasn't even asked me to be his girlfriend,"

"But he will soon. Probably after they come back from San Diego," Tessa smiled.

"Oh ok, I'm just glad he can be able to escape from all the drama and have a good time down there," Gabriella replied, linking arms with Tessa.

"Yeah, along with the others, including Sharpay's troops," Tessa said, "you think they might do something?"

Gabriella shrugged and stated, "Who knows? With her, anything can happen,". She was just hoping that nothing that happened in San Diego can damage what she really wanted with Troy.

Almost an hour later, everyone was unpacked and decided to take a swim in hotel pool. They were all just chilling and playing around in the water. Sharpay was laying out not too far from the pool in her pink bikini from PacSun, reading the latest Elle magazine, not wanting to enjoy the time in the water like everyone else. She was looking into the latest fall fashion collection featured in Bergdorf's when Zeke had sat at the end of her lounge chair.

"Is there a reason that you interrupt my relax time?" Sharpay asked Zeke.

"No, not really. It just seems like you're not having fun like everyone else," Zeke said.

Sharpay lowered her magazine and gave Zeke a smug look, "Reading about the latest fall fashions is fun to me,"

"Well, I know that," Zeke replied, rolling his eyes, "but why don't you join your friends down at the pool?"

"I don't want to ruin my tan line," Sharpay said, quickly making an excuse to not get in the chlorinated water that was the hotel pool.

"Ok then, if you insist," Zeke sighed, getting ready to walk away. Sharpay frowned slightly but continued to read her magazine. It wasn't until she felt her chair being lifted that she made a fit!

"Hey! Guys, put me down!" she screamed as she started to laugh. Kelan, Cameron, and Jason only laughed as they threw her, and the Elle magazine, into the pool. Sharpay was coming up to the surface when the guys jumped in around her soon after. She squeaked from the sudden splash of water on her. Sharpay looked up to see Zeke laughing at the edge of the pool.

"You think this is funny?" Sharpay asked, grabbing his hand and pulling him into the pool. Everyone cheered as Zeke was met with the same fate as Sharpay. He came up and soon went after Sharpay, ready to take revenge upon the drenched Ice Queen. Not far from them was Troy, chilling by the steps of the pool, happy to see that his friend was able to snag the Ice Queen once and for all. It seemed like everything was getting back to normal for Troy. If only Gabriella was there to celebrate with him.

He swam over to where Raquel and Alex were waddling in the water and looked around the pool area. "Hey, where's Chad and Taylor?"

Raquel looked around and noticed the couple's missing as well. "Well that's weird. They aren't here. I swear to God I thought they were,"

"Maybe they went down to the marina for a little R&R," Alex commented.

"Like they get enough of it as it is," Troy laughed as he jumped back into the pool.

Chad and Taylor were indeed on the marina, but nowhere near it. They were out on a rented yacht, prearranged by Chad himself, and now Chad was sailing Isabella out to the Pacific Ocean. He knew how to drive a yacht and was going at a great pace for newcomer Taylor McKessie, who was looking out on the side, amazed at the view of the water and the city from where they were. After a few minutes, Chad slowed down to a stop and came out of the cockpit, walking towards his girlfriend.

"So, what do you think?" Chad asked wrapping his arms around the bikini-clad black beauty.

"Mmmm not too bad. I love it out here. Why didn't you bring me down here sooner?" Taylor asked.

"Well, I was going to bring you out to Newport Harbor to see my boat but since we were coming down here anyways, I just wanted to surprise you," Chad replied, kissing her cheek.

"Aww you sweet," Taylor joked, softly hitting his cheek and looking up at him. He smiled back down at her before giving her a soft kiss on the lips. They pulled back slowly and softly laughed as they held each other close.

"You think everyone's gonna worry where we are?" Taylor asked him.

Chad didn't think about telling his friends, or even Troy, of what he was planning, afraid of ruining the plan. "Possibly," he said after a thought.

"Well, I rather not have them send out the force on us, now would we?" Taylor said.

"Of course not. Let's just stay out here for a little while longer, and then we can go back. We have an hour rental after all," Chad said, pulling away from Taylor and checking his many watches.

"So what are we going to be doing for," Taylor asked, before grabbing his wrist to check his many watches, "fifty minutes?"

"Well, I was thinking maybe lunch, a little making out, and maybe a swim?" Chad stated, while picking Taylor up, bridal-style.

"What do you mean by a sWIM!?" Taylor said, screaming the last word as Chad threw her, gently, into the ocean blue. He soon cannon-balled in after her, landing beside her in the water.

"Chad Danforth! I can't believe you threw me from a boat!" Taylor exclaimed as Chad swam towards her.

"Well it was either that or I could push you in," Chad smirked.

"I'll show you push," Taylor said, before pulling Chad into a searing kiss in the middle of the Pacific Ocean blue.

Palms Baptist Church

The Montez-Manning wedding had finally came to a close. It was a beautiful wedding for the attendees and the families. Ryan and Victoria had came out of the church after watching the groom, bride and family take pictures.

"It was such a beautiful wedding, wasn't it?" Victoria complimented, squeezing Ryan's hand.

"Yeah, it sure was. I wonder how much the wedding planner got paid to do something this extravagant," Ryan wondered.

"I know. She must have done an amazing job getting this all together, including Gabriella and Tessa," Victoria replied.

"Mhm. So when is the reception?" Ryan asked.

"I don't know," Victoria said before fishing out the program in her light pink Dior bag, "I think it's at 6:00. Gives us time to go home and change,"

"Nah, I'm good," Ryan said, pulling the sleeves of his black Ralph Lauren casual jacket.

"You sure babe," Victoria asked.

"Yeah, I'm fine. What about you?" Ryan asked, touching her elbows.

Victoria smiled and nodded, "Of course. I have to get out of these shoes and something more comfortable,"

"Of course, V," Ryan replied, kissing her on the lips quickly, "just let me tell Gabi what our plan is,"

"Ok, I'll be in the car," Vicky replied, taking the keys out of Ryan's jacket. He just rolled his eyes before heading back inside where Gabriella and Tessa were talking.

"Hey Tess, Gabi. Great wedding, you guys did awesome," Ryan complimented.

"Aww thanks Ryan. Where's Victoria?" Tessa asked.

"She's heading to the car. Hey, you don't mind if we meet up with you guys at the reception, right?" Ryan asked.

"Of course, you guys have time. We'll see you there," Gabriella said, patting his arm.

"Ok cool. See you guys," Ryan replied before heading out. Gabriella soon followed him out.

"Ryan!" she called.

He turned and walked back towards her, seeing Tessa look suspicious. "What's up?"

"Have you told Victoria yet?" she asked quietly.

Ryan stood still for a while before whispering back to her, "No, not yet. I don't know how to tell her,"

"Well, tell her when the time's right. She'll understand; I know she will," Gabriell replied.

"I hope so. I just don't want to break her heart," Ryan sighed.

"You won't. Trust me," Gabriella said, rubbing his shoulder.

A 2009 BMW Jetta pulled up outside the church and honked, signaling for Ryan. Ryan and Gabi turned to see Victoria in the car, waiting on her boyfriend.

"Thanks Gabs. I'll see you at the reception," Ryan said, squeezing her hand before he left for the car.

"Ok, see you," Gabriella said back as Ryan got into the car and the Jetta drove away. She sighed inwardly as she went back inside to a waiting Tessa.

"What was that all about?" she asked.

"It's a long story, but you can't tell anybody," Gabriella said, giving her a serious look.

"Ok, I'm all ears," Tessa replied, linking arms with Gabriella as they headed back inside the church.

It was now the first night of the Junior Weekend. Of course, it meant to hit up all the latest downtown events and teen clubs that resided in the city. In the Ice Queen's adjoined rooms, Sharpay and Kyndra's room was adjoined with Kelsi and Cami's, the girls were getting glammed up for a night on the town.

"Ok girls. Jason sent out the text. We're all heading out to this new teen club called Gemini and we have to be ready by 8:00 sharp," Kyndra said, calling out to the girls in the bathrooms.

"8:00?! What time is it now?" Kelsi complained.

"It's like 7:30," Kyndra stated, walking back to the girls.

"Ok, that's crazy. I like have no time to fix my hair," Cami said as she tried to curl her black hair.

"That's because your big boobs and ass is taking up all the window space and I can't get my makeup on," Kelsi complained, playfully pushing Cami to the side.

"Haha funny. Now come on guys, it's not that important," Sharpay said, leaning up on the adjoined doorway. She was already made up and dressed; she was just ready to leave and party.

"Well that's because someone had to leave dinner early so she can get a head start on getting ready," Kyndra said, poking Sharpay with a comb.

"And it worked didn't it?" Sharpay said, with a smile. She was wearing a black Bisou Bisou by JCPenney dress and black Delicious strapped pumps.

"Whatever, witch. Let's just hurry up so we can meet the guys downstairs," Kelsi said, coming towards Sharpay and Kyndra.

"I'm ready; I'm just waiting on you all's asses," Sharpay said, sitting back on her bed.

"Whatever, Queen Bee," Kyndra laughed as Sharpay smacked her with the back of her hand.

Jason and Alex's Room

"Alright dawgs, tonight is gonna be the night. The one time I finally get some Kelsi!" Jason exclaimed, parading around the room as the guys laughed.

"Ok, we get it man. You're gonna get with Kelsi tonight, what else is new?" Kelan said, rolling his eyes.

"Yo, where's Zeke? Isn't he supposed to be hitting it up with the rest of us too?" Cameron asked.

"Yeah, he had to go finish this really complicated dish in that seminar he signed up for. He said that he would meet up with us at the club when he was done," Jason replied.

"Well what about the fact that Troy Bolton, basketball team captain, is going to be without his main squeeze?" Cameron asked, as all the guys got on Troy.

"I'm gonna keep saying it over, guys. I'm going to be fine without Gabi there," Troy stated.

"Yeah, yeah. So what are you gonna do? Sit around and drink?" Jason asked.

"Hey, you know what? That's not a bad idea," Troy said, patting Jason on the back, "thanks man."

"No, no, no, no. That is so not the plan," Cameron said, coming over to Troy, "you are going to find a girl, whether it's with one of the Ice Queens or someone in the area. You are not going to be a number wheel,"

"I'm not going to be a number wheel; it's fine Cam. Besides, someone has to drive us all back here," Troy stated.

"Whatever dude," Kelan said as he went to answer the repeated knocking door. He opened it to reveal Chad and Taylor, dressed to jam. Chad was wearing Hollister jeans, a light red striped Abercrombie button-up shirt and light brown Sperry top-siders while Taylor was wearing a red sequin AMI Clubwear dress with red and black Nine West pumps.

"You guys ready? We got to get ready to go in 5," Taylor said, stepping into the hotel room filled with guys.

"And won't you look at the Wildcat couple, huh?" Cameron said, hugging Taylor.

"Yeah, yeah. Look guys, the Ice Queens are almost ready so come on," Chad replied.

"Alright, alright. We came to San Diego to have a good time, so let's do this!" Troy yelled. Everyone cheered and headed out the door for their first night out on the town.
