Chapter 2-Troy? Gabriella?

"Troy?" Gabriella choked on that one word. That one small syllabled word. The boy who broke her heart so many years ago...

"Who is this-Gabriella?" Troy said, going wide-eyed.

"Uh...hi." Gabriella said. She couldn't think anything to say. It was overwhelming enough, how she got to even hear his voice again.

"Wow...this is...uhm...awkward." Troy chuckled in embarrassment, realized that he just yelled at Gabriella.

"Agreed..." Gabriella said softly.

"So...how are you Ella? Or does everyone call you Gabriella now?" Troy said still nervous. Talking to the girl he dumped 5 years ago.

"Ella's Ella. I just...haven't been called that in...5 years. But I'm good. You? " Gabriella smiled nervously. Troy Bolton...

"Good...actually...if you couldn't tell, I was trying to get to Ty...and...where is he?" Troy breathed. Trying to get calm.

Tyler walked in the through the door, noticing that Gabriella was holding his cellphone. "He's right here Troy..." Gabriella said staring at Tyler. Tyler went wide eyed. No...was Gabriella and Troy talking...?

"Can please hand him the phone?" Troy said, his tone getting tense. Gabriella nodded, then laughing at herself. Realizing that Troy couldn't see her. Gabriella stared at shocked Tyler. "Here..." Gabriella breathed.

"Yo?" Tyler said nervously.

"TLYER MICHAEL BOLTON!!!" Troy yelled into the phone.

"Hi...Troy Alexander Bolton..." Tyler forced out a chuckle, trying to lighten up the mood.

"Tyler! You-ugh1" Troy groaned into the phone.

"Bye Troy...Gabriella is..." Tyler thought of an excuse quickly, "Wanting to talk to me..." he said lying through his teeth. A smile grew on his face. Lying was his talent. Then he shut his phone, and turned it off.

"So..." Tyler smiled at Gabriella.

With Troy-

"It couldn't be..." Troy shook his head, shocked.

"What couldn't be?" Chad said walking through the doors with the other guys.

"I just...I just-talked to Gabriella..." Troy said, stunned. Frozen.

"You what?!" Jason yelled out.

"I just-" Troy froze. The girl that he dumped, and regretted it for the last 5 years of his life.

With Tyler and Gabriella-

"You...you told me that Troy was still in UCLA..." Gabriella said glaring at Tyler.

Tyler chuckled, "Yeah...about that..." he shrugged. "He just, he is...he was just calling me, you know a check up?" Tyler said, trying not to grin. The perfect lie, for the perfect moment.

"Oh..." Gabriella nodded, now understanding what he meant.

"So? Basketball? After school?" Tyler grinned, changing the subject.

"Sure..." Gabriella gave a light smile. Even though Tyler was probably lying through his teeth, there still that possibility he wasn't.

"Got it..." Tyler winked at her and grabbed his gym bag and backpack and left to go put it in his locker.

A half hour later-

Gabriella smiled. She heard the voice...the voice of the boy who broke her heart. She walked out of the classroom, still having a half hour and tried to find Tyler.

With Tyler-

"Perfect plan..." Tyler smirked...

"What's the perfect plan bro?" Tyler's friend Andrew said.

"Drew...watch and learn..." Tyler laughed, ten going into his backpack, grabbing out Troy's class ring. He stole it from Troy's old room a few days ago.

"What's that?" Drew said confused, raising an eyebrow.

"Watch and learn..." Tyler said again, peeking his head through the door of Gabriella's room.

"Okay?" Drew said, watching...but not learning a thing.

Tyler sneaked through, as if he was 007...he put the ring on Gabriella's desk. Gabriella wore it everyday...till' the day after he broke up with her. Gabriella dropped the ring and put it his locker slot.

Gabriella walked back in, seeing Tyler at her desk. "Tyler what are you doing?" Gabriella said squinting her eyes, at the most mischievous boy she ever met.

"Uhm...looking through the test answers..." Tyler forced out a laugh, trying to say that he was joking.

"Tyler...out, school's about to start. I'll see you during 4th period.." Gabriella's eyes narrowed as Tyler walked passed her, then giving her a peck on the cheek, and leaving shutting the door.

"So...the moral of the story, is how to hit on our new science teacher?" Drew asked puzzled, scratching hishead.

"Close...no...the moral of the story is to learn how to get our new science teacher and her ex to get back together..." Tyler said, smiling mischievously.

"Okay?" Drew nodded, catching up with Steven and Brian.

With Gabriella-

Gabriella stared at her desk, making sure she wasn't missing anything...she wasn't missing anything...no, she had something she recognized. But...hadn't seen in a very long time. She stared at it. It was Troy's class ring. Troy gave it to her, and engraved.

'Forever and Always...xoxo...' It read. Gabriella smiled, then slipping it on her right ring finger. It still fit. She smiled at it. Finally, the first bell rang, as students came into the classroom. Then the second bell.

Then...before she knew it...it was the end of the day, and Tyler was there, waiting outside of the classroom ready to play, and hopefully will beat Gabriella, who was wearing tennis shoes today. Meaning-She was going to be better. "You ready to get creamed again...?" Gabriella laughed.

"Yeah...sure Montez..." Tyler chuckled nervously. 'So much for living up to Troy's ego' Tyler thought nervously.

"Uh-huh..." Gabriella nodded laughing, while putting her hair up in a messy bun.

"Okay...since I lost...-"

"Badly..." Gabriella laughed.

"I was saying...since I lost, I should get the ball first..." Tyler said grabbing a basketball.

"Okay...it wouldn't make a difference. I'm still gonna kick your ass..." Gabriella said pumped up and ready.

"Cussy eh 'Brie?" Tyler laughed.

"Sure..." Gabriella shrugged it off, as Tyler checked the ball. In the end Gabriella creamed him....again.

"Hah....and you said your gonna win. I beat you by 20 points." Gabriella laughed on the bleachers, taking a drink from Tyler's water bottle.

"Whatever Montez..." Tyler rolled his eyes. Maybe he'll beat her later.

"Dude! Time to go-" a voice shouted in the entrance of the gymnasium. Tyler tuned to see Troy...

"Hey bro." Tyler chuckled nervously. Gabriella was drinking some water, and stared at Troy.

"Hi..." Gabriella said looking down at her feet, as if her feet really were interesting.

"Hey..." Troy smiled. Gabriella said looking up. Troy smiled at her. She was still beautiful. She was still...Gabriella. The Gabriella he fell in love with, so many years ago. It was like...a thousand years ago, Troy thought.

"Ready to go?" Tyler said, grabbing his bags, then running Troy out the door.

"Woah, woah, woah there bud." Troy said stopping him.

"What?!" he yelled, wanting to get out of here.

"Look, I have to go...Sharpay is waiting for me at her house." Gabriella said, feeling like she was shaken.

"Oh...well it was fantastic seeing you again." Troy smiled, holding out his hand.

"Yea..." Gabriella said shaking his hand.

Troy smiled wider. "Okay...Tyler, c'mon." Troy said, grabbing Tyler's shoulder then walking out of the gym.

"Well I have to go too..." Gabriella said, walking out the gym, then walking as fast as she could out the door, into her car.

Gabriella put the key in the ignition, turning it, but it wasn't starting. "Shit..." Gabriella yelled, slamming her head against the steering wheel. "Goddamnit!" Gabriella yelled while hopping out of the car.

Tyler stared at he, and smiled. "Tyler!" Gabriella yelled across the lot.

"Yeah?" he turned back around. Troy did as well, and looked at Gabriella.

"Can I borrow your cell?" Gabriella begged.

"Sure...?" Tyler said, acting dumb.

"Thanks..." as she grabbed the phone, then called a tow. Then, called Ryan.

"Hey baby..." Gabriella said mad. She needed to go and make more plans with Sharpay, you know...for the wedding.

"Hey? Where are you? Sharpay's here...and...she's getting pretty ticked." Ryan chuckled, as he watched Sharpay pace back and forth, getting tense.

"My car...it broke down. Something happened. Hun...I called a tow, ask Sharpay to come pick me up, and then we can go to the mall, and work on the plans." Gabriella smiled. She loved Ryan, so much.

"Okay...bye baby...I love you." Ryan said, delighted, in love.

"Bye, love you too..." Gabriella smiled, then shutting the phone.

Troy was listening intently, listening to her conversation. He was going to ask her who that was...she said 'I love you', and hun? Did she have a relationship, or was that just a friend? Hmmm..."You know, I could, drive you to your house..." Troy said smiling at her.

"No, it's okay...Sharpay's picking me up..." Gabriella said, handing the phone back to Tyler.

"So, your still in touch with Shar Gabi?" he smiled. She was still the shy, but out-going girl.

"Yeah...Taylor too. So how's UCLA?" Gabriella said. Then also realizing that Tyler said he was still in UCLA, and he glared at Tyler. Who decided to just shrug it off.

"Good...Chad, Zeke, and Jase are good too..." Troy said. Gabriella stared at Troy. Those eyes...those blue eyes, caught her glimspe.

"That's good." Gabriella nodded, then seeing Sharpay pull up in her convertible.

"Hey! Get in!" Sharpay yelled.

"Hey Shar!" Troy said, opening the door for Gabriella.

"Hey Troy-wait TROY!" Sharpay hopped out of the car and hugged him as tight as possible.

"Hey..." Troy said hugging back. Sharpay then realized, this was Troy. Troy Bolton, the one who broke her best friend's heart. Sharpay glanced over at her friend, who was gave her a crooked smile. She was okay...in ways.

"Well how are you Shar?" Troy smiled at her. They were such good friends in high school, but then....the incident.

"Great? You? How's...Zeke?" Sharpay said, smiling.

"Great..." Troy said smiling. It was bringing back all these memories...these high school memories.

"Well...me and Shar...need, to uhm...go..." Gabriella smiled, then got into Shar's car.

"So, you out-grew the pink?" Troy chuckled.

"Get in the car Sharpay!" Gabriella screamed. She needed to get out of there.

"Okay...and yes Troy. I got into the silver." Sharpay said, giving him a wave then hopping the driver's seat.
