Chapter 2

It was a Monday. The Monday after my horrible weekend with Taylor and Sharpay. I wont go into details, but I basically couldn't even go to the bathroom without someone waiting by the door. I was currently pulling into the school parking lot, and driving to my usually spot. But then I noticed that a sleek black motorcycle was parked in Troy's spot, which is the space to the left. Did Troy get a motorcycle? I pulled in and cut the engine. I looked around the parking lot, stepping out of my car. Troy wasn't anywhere. Maybe they decided to finally give me space.

'If you go hard you gotta get on the floor, if your a party freak then step on the flo'

My cell phone started ringing, and I quickly answered it without noticing who was calling.

"Hello?" I asked, looking around the parking lot casually leaning against my car.

"Hey Gabriella, it's Troy, why is there a motorcycle in my parking space?" He said fast, and full of alarm. I looked around again, and then noticed Troy's truck across the parking lot.

"I don't know, I thought it was yours." I answered honestly.

"It's not. I would never get a motorcycle. I'll tell Chad to walk you in, I have to take care of something." He seethed. I was stunned that Troy was so mad.

"Troy, why are you so mad about this?"

"Did you see who got off the bike?"

"No."

"Well I think I know who, and I want you to stay away from anyone with the name Jacob Black." I tuned out the rest, and focused on that name. Jacob Black. It was different. I tried to picture the boy who owned the name. Maybe brown hair, with green eyes. Ripped jeans, leather jacket. Black wasn't a common last name here. There were Miller's, and Zimmerman's galore, but no one with the last name Black.

"Gabriella? Are you listening?"

"Ya, sorry. Um, I'll see you soon. Bye."

"Bye Brie." I shut my phone, and ran toward the school doors, not even looking around for Chad to escort me. After getting my books and scurrying to homeroom, I noticed Colton wasn't here.

"Hey Shauna?" I asked the girl beside me who had blonde hair, with black highlights, and slightly on the chubbier side.

"What?" She asked looking up from her math book.

"Do you know where Colton is?"

"I heard he transferred schools. West High I think." She looked back to her book. My head started to hurt as I thought of what happened to make him transfer so fast.

"Do you know why?" I asked her. She looked back up, a bit irritated I interrupted her reading again.

"I heard Chad beat him up pretty bad. He was in the hospital last weekend. I'm not sure if he still is." My mouth dropped. No, that didn't happen. She got the wrong information. I wanted to just go find Chad and punch him hard in the face. Colton was my only outside friend. One who let me be me. Now he's gone. I stood up abruptly, and then the bell rang.

Taylor, Troy, Sharpay, Chad, and me were all in the cafeteria eating lunch. Taylor and Sharpay were gossiping about a fight that took place outside around second period. Troy, and Chad were talking about practice. Again. I looked around the huge cafeteria, which was flowing with busy students.

I was about to confront Chad about Colton, but then I saw him. His dark black hair, brown eyes, tanned skin, toned muscles. Who was he? My gaze followed him, until he stopped by a table across the cafe, which consisted of Daniel Gates, Lucas Smith, and Jordan Miller. The gang of East High. He shook hands with each of them, then they all laughed at something he said. Jordan caught my stair minutes later, and said something that made the mysterious, attractive boy turn towards me. I dropped my head quickly, and focused back into Taylor, and Sharpay's conversation. As I was listening to the girls, I kept sneeking glances at the boy. He was wearing a black muscle shirt, with black jeans. I licked my lips, and turned back to look at my friends. None of them noticed my constant stairing, and I did a little happy dance in my head.

I unlocked my car door, and waved bye to Taylor as she walked towards her car. I heard steps beside me, so I turned my head around and came face to face with the dark haired boy. I was shocked, so I just stood there with my mouth slightly jarred.

"Are you just going to stare at me, or what babe?" He said smirking. I zoned back in, and quickly tried to respond.

"Um, sorry, you just caught me by surprise." I said not knowing what to do.

"Right, so I saw you at luch. Do you always stare at people, or just hot people like me?" He asked sarcastically. I smirked a little, and looked down playing with my car keys.

"Sorry, I just didn't know who you were."

"Hmm. Well I'm Jacob Black, and you are?" My mouth dropped. No way. Wait, Troy said to stay away from him. Well he was with a gang so...

"Gabriella...Montez." I spit out, realizing I hadn't spoke yet.

"Well it's a pleasure to meet you babe. You doing anything tonight?" he asked with a devilish grin. My cheeks flushed red.

"Actually I am." I lied.

"Well maybe next time." He responded, not making a move to leave.

"I have a boyfriend." I stated quietly.

"That doesn't surprise me. Who?" He laughed.

"Troy Bolton." He widened his eyes a little, then composed his face.

"Hmm. Bolton. Well I would sure like to meet him." He smirked. Well Troy would deffinitely not like to meet you, I screamed inside my head.

"Sure."

"Cool. See you tomorrow...Brie-Ella." He winked after he got on his bike, then sped out of school property. My heart was pounding fast with questions flying around. 'Should I tell Troy?' 'Should I tell anyone?' "Is this guy safe?' 'Should I even talk to him anymore?'. I didn't know the answers to these questions exactly. But I knew deep down my heart wanted to see more of this Jacob.
