Chapter 4: Here we go!
It was Saturday morning and Gabriella couldn't be happier. Today was the big day! The day she went on her first real date. With a man who was twenty two years old and very famous. Yet she was actually going on a date with him. She hadn't been able to sleep that night she was simply to happy to think about sleeping so when she woke up 7 am this morning she simply couldn't be in the bed so she went out for a run for about an hour then eating breakfast. Her mind was wondering around if she would go to the gym for an hour so maybe her muscle would look more toned. But she decided against it not wanting to have any soreness for tonight. Though she doubted they would do anything that would make her sense this soreness.
She looked at the clock and it showed 9 am and she knew it was too early to call her best friend or call anybody for that matter. Hell her parents was still in a deep sleep. She though had always been a morning person and that wasn't about to change anytime soon. When ever se stayed at Sharpay's house she usually got up and spent time with her parents while she was sleeping. Though she never minded she enjoyed talking with them they always seemed younger then they were.
The clocked ticked by as a snail. She knew it would feel like forever until six. She could have slept al day but she wasn't that kind of persona and would never be that either. She liked early mornings and early nights. Though she didn't go to sleep at eight every night. She just liked to get to bed early so she was rested the next day. She just hoped that tonight would be like in her dreams.

He hated work! He hated to do work at home! He hated when they called from work! Yes Troy Bolton hated his job sometimes even if it gave him loads of money he wasn't feeling like working on a Saturday when it was his day of! In his mind he was blowing up the office over and over again then he remembered he had many pictures there he needed to take home before he could blow the place up. He sighs heavily and decide to leave work and start to freshen up because he had been sitting in his sweats all day long and that made him just smell gross.
He stepped into the hot shower after stripping out of his clothes the water was washing away the tight knots between his shoulder blades after sitting in an uncomfortable position all day letting the axe covering his body and hair he realized it was not long before he was gonna pick up Gabriella and they were going on a date. Though he was experienced with these kind of things but she made him feel insecure and doubt him self with every move he took. Just like the first time he ever had sex with a girl. He had no idea what he was doing that night he barely remember it either seeing as he was under the bad influence of red bull and vodka (Those things can kill you! So don't drink it!) So it was hardly a night to remember and it wasn't mush he did remember. Stepping out of the refreshing shower he wrapped a towel around his hips and an other towel to dry his hair. He went to his bed room to get dressed for the night. Taking out clean dark jeans and a white v-line t-shirt and a Nike zip up sweater. Simple yes but after all they were just going to the movies and pizza after.
After getting dressed and trying to style the hair in good mess just ended in disaster so he let it be as it was and hoped that it would turn out good anyway. Checking the time he found he was running late and as quick as he could he put on a black Everest jacket and black vans then he went out to his baby with hopes of getting a new one tonight…
--
She had been dressed since 4 am and though she knew it was a simple date and she also knew that the ripped jeans and the tank top along with her track team jacket would be just fine for tonight. Yet she had been in her room several times trying to change but it never was a change after she had calmed her self down with reassurance that everything would be just great tonight. He had asked her. She reminded her self. He wanted this. He had asked for her number. Everything linked back to him. So she should not feel worried!
Yet she was a nervous wreck. And was about to break any moment now. Because she was sure that he wasn't coming and she would understand him if he didn't! But he could at least spare her the pain couldn't he?!
The doorbell rang loud and clear trough the empty house. She practically ran to the door but before opening the dark oak door she pulled her self together and tried to look calm. But she doubted she did look anywhere near the calm she wanted to feel.
"Hey…" His velvet voice sounded when she had opened the door and she came face to face with the god before her. He was so simple dressed yet he couldn't look more perfect in her eyes. She felt like bending down and start worshiping him. Though something in her mind kept her sane and on her feet and she was thankful for that otherwise she would have looked like even bigger idiot then she already did.
"Hi…" She smiles softly after she remembers how to speak. He smiles back on of his stunning smiles she never would get sick of seeing. She had already memory of it in her mind though she was sure that her memory did not make the gorgeous smile justice.
"Ready to go?" He asks and she nods she takes her jacket and puts on her shoes and they go to the car and get seated. She was scared of touching the car, she was sure that it cost more then her life was worth. But reluctant she sits down in the leather seat praying she hasn't destroyed anything.

"I wanna see Avatar! Its supposed to be great!" Troy spoke up after they had been quiet for a while. Trying to decide witch movie they were going to watch.
"Sure… It sounds great." She started digging in her pockets after the money she needed to pay the movie ticket for.
"I'll pay…" He say and smiles brightly to her. She nods thankfully knowing that this wouldn't make a big difference on his account seeing as he was a billionaire and heir of more billions! He pays for it and gets the tickets. They bought popcorn and sodas, witch he also pays for. Being the gentlemen he was. They walked to the salon to see it was nearly filled. They found their seats.
"What have you been doing all week?" She asks quietly trying to start a conversation. Lame subject, yes but she was to shy to take something else.
"Working. It takes most of my time right now, hell I worked all day before this…" He admits to her and she smiles to him. He looks a her. She looked perfect even if the clothes was simple it looked like she came right of the catwalk. "How was your week?" He asks her back. She shrugs while trying to figure out what she had done this week.
"Uh… School, track practice and was forced to the mall by my best friend." She says he nods observing showing her that he was listening to what she was saying.
"Track team? I would have guessed swimming team…" He says with a light chuckle. She blushes at this statement. How the hell could he know she was athletic!?
"Well I am on the track team… And with some luck I am going to state…" She says and again blushing wildly at her achievements. She made a mental note to be proud of her achievements instead of constant blushing. She had nothing to be embarrassed for. She had earned her grades because she worked hard with her studies. And for the track team, she had been a natural runner since the day she was born. And when she heard about the track team in Junior high it was just natural for her to try out and she had stayed there ever since.
"Maybe I should come and look then…" He murmurs as the light goes down in the salon.
"Yeah maybe…" She mumbles somewhat flirtatious.
The screen started moving with commercial and the two leaned back in their seats and allowed them self t be carried away by the story that was about to be told but not with out Troy suggesting he wanted to be more then friends when he took her delicate hand in his lager and laced their fingers together in a gentle embrace. He knew that she was blushing wildly right now but decide not to stare at her instead he focused on the screen.
--
After sitting two and half hour holding hands Gabriella didn't remember mush of the movie. Her body throwing big fireworks of the body contact she was given by Troy. Troy himself seemed undisturbed by this though, at least if you would just look at him because he seemed very focused on the screen and the amazing world Pandora.
And now they were walking to his car talking about a movie she hardly remembers but tries to say something that made at least a bit of sense to him.
"I just think it was ridicules when the rhinos came in the end but hey maybe its just me…" Troy says and shrugs the masculine shoulders and that was fallowed by a soft laugh.
"Yeah… I thought Enya didn't take sides…" Gabriella giggles gently.
They gets seated in the car and after a drive in silence to the pizza place he was taking her to. The parking lot was nearly empty and they a place near the entrance.
The door made a ringing sounds alarming the working staff that customers was coming. "So what to you want?" He asks after she had been staring at the menu that hung over the cashier desk.
"Yeah the pepperoni…" He nods approving at her choice. She looked around the small parlor. It was very cozy with old style decorating and modern furniture the culture crock was perfect. You felt right at home when you stepped in. He was standing close behind her back.
"Come on…" He says and shows her to a table for two in the back for some privacy. Troy had ordered them both coke and hoped that she didn't minded and she didn't. Even if she was more for fanta. Their jackets was of and they had comment that they had similar styles.
"So when is your next track competition? It would be fun to see you run.." He says with a cheeky grin like he had something else in mind when he spoke. The waitress came with their pizzas. Troy dug in at once with his hands.
"Next Saturday…" She says quietly as she cuts up her pizza with her knife and fork. She looks up at Troy who was staring at her while he chewed on his Hawaiian pizza. "What?" She asks looking more confused while her head was searching for the explanation of his staring.
"Uhm… You eat pizza with fork and knife?! You eat it with your hands for gods sake!" He says while laughing. She couldn't do anything else but laugh along with him. He was staring her out because she was eating with her hands.
"Sorry?" She asks while giggling.
"I'll think about it…" He says and the laughing quiets down. They finish the pizza and sit and small talks.
"I think you are gonna qualify for state…" He says gently.
"Why do you think that?" She asks rather shyly.
"You seem strong enough for the task, you have been preparing for a long time. And you want to fulfill this with good result…" He explains to her.
"Well I'll see on Saturday when I run won't I?" She says and hides a small yawn.
"Tiered?" He asks softly.
"A bit.." She admits reluctant. He chuckles and they get up from the table and they go to the car to get the tiered teenager home.

"I had fun tonight…" Troy says when they stood outside her front door. "I'm I lucky enough to take some precious time for you next week?" He asks with a charming voice.
"That depends on what you had in mind…" She asks biting on her lower lip in anticipation.
"Well first I can come and watch you run… And then I can kidnap you to my place I can make you dinner and we watch a movie or just talk…" He suggest. She pretends to think about it and he nudges her lightly. "Come on… You know you want to… All you haft to do is say yes… Other wise you haft wait like three weeks before you can see me again!" He says letting the cockiness take over a bit. She let out a soft giggle.
"Fine… But I want to know what you are going to do that makes you go away…" She asks looking into his piercing blue eyes and she felt shivers go down her spine at his adoring look at her, she was so unused to those looks.
"I am going to China in business… Its going to suck but what can I do…" He sighs heavily. "But that is two weeks form now…" He says trying to get them on better thoughts then him leaving for a week.
"It sounds like fun… I would wanna see China…" She says cutely.
"Well I guess I haft to take you there someday…" She yawn once again. "But not tonight though… You need to sleep.." He push a curl behind her ear that had escaped her ponytail. He press a soft kiss to her cheek. "See you next week…" He says and winks to her before going back to his car and Gabriella into her house.
The smiles just couldn't be taken of her face except one person.
"I thought you were going to Sharpay's tonight…" Her father spoke in a low voice. "Can you explain to why Troy Bolton was driving home then?" He was not pleased with her lie and was not pleased with her being on a date with someone who was six years older then her.
"Because I knew you were gonna scare him of! You wouldn't give him a chance!" She says upset and the brink of tears. Her father always knew how to bring a good mood down!
"He is six years older then you Gabriella! He only wants sex from you!" He shouts at her.
"And what if he don't!? Why can't you let me grow up on my own and make my own mistakes!?" She shouts to him the tears were now falling. She rarely argued with her parents but this was an exception. She had been in a perfectly good mood and he just had to bring it down. Instead of waiting for an answer from him she ran to her room. Slamming the door loudly to make her point that she was angry.
"What did you do now Jose?" His wife spoke to him.
"She shouldn't date a boy who is six years older then her! He will only use her…" He mutters and sits down on the sofa trying to read a book. But finds it hard when his wife is staring him out.
"Gabriella is a smart girl… She wouldn't do anything stupid and Troy seem like a nice young man and I want you at least to pretend you like him!" She lectures her husband who just mutters to him self.
--
When he entered his home he felt happy. He never felt such ease during a date like he did with her. He hoped that they would become a serious relationship. But he couldn't get to mush hopes either knowing she might be insecure about something like that, let alone knowing that he would spend more time at work and with her. He sighs hearing his thoughts. They just got more and more complicated as he continued thinking.
He passes the living room area so he reached the kitchen, taking out a bottle of water an gulping down the cold liquid. While his thoughts was racing and he just came to the same answer over and over again.
She was the first price and he would do anything to win that first price…
