Baby, why'd you leave me, why'd you have to go I was counting on forever, now I'll never know
Gabriella's phone woke her up that Tuesday morning. She looked at her phone on the bed side table. A picture of Sharpay's face showed up.
"Hello?" Gabriella said still half asleep.
"Gabi are you still alseep, it's like noon now?" Sharpay said shocked.
"Yeah well now I'm up." Gabriella said as she stood up and walked to the bathroom.
"Okay good, anyway Ryan and I are hosting a Holiday Christmas Eve party at our house tonight cause our parents are at the Country Club, and I wanted to know if you and Troy wanted to come" Sharpay said excited.
"Yeah I'll definatly be there! That will be a blast! I will ask Troy so can I call you back Shar?" Gabriella said brushing out her hair in the mirror.
"Yeah sure, hurry up though. Oh and its like a semi formal thing nothing fancy" Sharpay said " TTYL honey!" Sharpay said hanging up the phone.
Gabriella put down the phone. She put her hair in a messy high ponytail. she looked at herself in the mrirror. As thoughts of what Troy thought of her rushed through her head, tears began to fall from her eyes and down her cheeks. She took a deep breath and wiped away her tears and went downstairs. She stood at the bottom and silently watched Troy, her heat longing to tell him he loved him but instead she pushed her feelings away for another day.
"Troy?" Gabriella said nervously walking towards the living room.
"Oh, Hey Gabi" Troy said back turning of the tv. He sat on the arm of the couch looking at Gabriella.
"Sharpay just called me." Gabriella said searching for the courage to ask him to go with her to the party.
"Oh, what did she say?" Troy replied.
"she and Ryan are having a holiday Christmas party tomorrow night, and I was wondering, and I know the last thing you want to do right now is go to a party with me but if you do want to go I would really like it." Gabriella stammered. She looked down and played with her fingers.
"Ummmm....yeah I would love to go with you," Troy replied. Gabriella immediately looked up to see the beautiful blue eyes she dreamed about looking right back at her.
"Really?!?!" Gabriella said excited
"Yeah I would be my honor to go with you. and I'm sorry for everything yesterday; I should have never acted like that. I'm sorry Gabi" Troy said apologetically. This time it was Troys turn to look down and play with his fingers.
"No Troy you have all the right in the world to be mad at me. I mean you are letting me be here as a guest and you see me with another guy, that was really rude I should have told him to back off." Gabriella apologized back.
"No Gabi I'm sorry for everything. I over reacted." Troy said walking towards Gabriella. He put his hands around her waist. She could feel his breathing against her body.
"I'm so glad that we can be friends again because there is nothing in the world that means more to me than you Gabi" Troy said as he looked into Gabriella's dark chocolate brown eyes.
"Troy I'm home!!!" Mrs. Bolton called from the garage doorway. Troy looked into Gabriella's eyes and silently apologized for his mom. Gabriella and Try broke apart before Mrs. Bolton came onto the living room. Gabriella just laughed. For the rest of the day Gabriella and Troy were inseparable. All that mattered to Gabriella was that she and Troy were talking again and that he was going to the party with her and who knew it was new years eve tomorrow night you never know what could happen.
