"Gabriella! Wake up! It's your first day of senior year!" Izzie shouted from downstairs. Ever since her and her sister had a talk that one day, they have been close ever since. Izzie has been taking care of her lately like the mother Gabby has needed since she was 8. On her first day of highschool, she was tired and nervous knowing she would see Troy again today making her stomach flutter, and her smile to widen.

"Coming!" She shouted running out of her room.

"Troy! Wake up! It's your last first day of school as a highschooler." Jack shouted up the stairs. Ever since the car crash, Jack has been staying home with Troy and Lucielle and has been doing work around the house instead of going off on the trips again. He's been completely supportive of him these past two weeks in loosing the love of his life. Was he ready to move on to another girl? He couldn't even imagine.

"On my way." He mumbled getting out of bed sluggishly. He really doesn't feel like doing anything anymore since she's left his life and Lucielle feels really bad about what happened. She never ment to hurt him, but she knew it was best for Mr. Montez to know, she would have liked to known if this was going on with her daughter.

"Ready sweetie?" Izzie said knocking on her door, opening it smiling looking at Gabby.

"Ready as I'll ever be." Gabby quickly looked over to the mirror and examined her body that looked tan and gorgeous in her dark vigoss shorts, a sky blue v-neck shirt, and casual flip flops on her feet. She runs a hand through her long straight hair and add the closing lip gloss on her lips along with her natural looking make-up. She grabs her back-pack and runs to the door.

"Hey, were leaving." Lucielle shouted. Troy brushed his hair quickly after taking a long shower which was a huge mistake seeing as he was running out of time. He throws on a navy blue v-neck top and puts on his favorite light jean shorts, slipping into his sandals before running out of his room and downstairs. He grabs his backpack and runs into the car as they begin to drive away.

"Welcome back to East High!" A girl shouts at Gabby dressed in a cheer leader outfit. Izzie smiles keeping in her laugh as the cheerleader stops Gabby. "Hey, are you new here?"

"Um, Yeah actually."

"Well I'm Marissa Petersberg and would love to show you around later okay?"

"Sounds nice." Gabby said before leaving Marissa. She didn't look like a cheerleader at all with long, dark brown wavy hair. She had a medium body type reaching the same height as Gabby. The image of perfection on her face was her blue, blue eyes that reminded her too much of Troy. Izzie laughed pulling her into the school making their way to the principals office. Gabby was only concerened in looking for Troy, but she gave up looking over plenty of teens running around. Izzie knocks on the principals door and walks in.

"Miss Montez! I've been waiting for you! Welcome to East High!" Gabby smiles and shakes his hand. The principal was older looking tired. "Here's your schedule seeing as you never got it in the mail. If you want a tour, let me know okay? So let's talk about expectations this year coming from homeschooling."

"TROY BOLTON!" A guy shouted. He ran up to him and gave him a man hug with girls and some boys following him.

"Hey Troy, you're looking good!" Some random girl said.

"Ready for Basketball?" Another guy said.

"You bet!" Troy replied getting a little happier.

"Working out huh?" A girl said touching his biceps. He denied pulling his arm back.

"Yeah." He replied bored. "Hey guys, I gotta go talk to a teacher. See you later."

"So that's what is going to happen to you this year. We also have you're ACT's scheduled soon so if you want to being to test for them, we recomend you do it soon. Any questions?" The two minute bell warning rang. "Oh I'm sorry! We can pick up this conversation later on. If you're late, I will e-mail you're first period teacher. Have a nice day." She got up quickly and left with Izzie.

"Thanks for everything Izzie!" Gabby quickly gave her a hug as Izzie kissed her cheek.

"Go get them Gabs." Izzie left her in the halls all alone as she began to run to find her next class. This was going to be difficult finding her way through school. Okay, how hard can this be Gabs? You have government and econ now. Alright room 129. The bell rings making Gabby freak out. Shit Gabby, run!

"Alright, welcome to your first day of senior year! I'am Miss Mayfield and I will be your teacher. Alright, its time for attendance." A girl runs in.

"I am so sorry Miss! I got lost an-"

"What's you're name?"

"Gabriella Montez."

"Yeah, your on my list." She smiles geniunely. "Just take a seat where its avalible before we get assigned seats." Gabby sits next to a random person who looks calm and happy. She looks over to Gabby. Her long wavy and curly black hair fell gently on her shoulder as she turned to Gabby. She smiled having her green-green eyes glisten and her fair skin tone match a purple v-neck t-shirt.

"Hey, are you new?"

"Yeah, Gab-"

"I heard Miss Mayfield. Haha, I'am Trinity Englebridge." She smiled and put her hand out.

"Yeah, so I'm nervous. I haven't been to school since I was in like 3rd grade or whatever."

"Wow, why?"

"Trinity Englebridge?" Miss Mayfield interuppted.

"Here. So continue."

"Um, long story but if we have time I'll tell you." Gabby smiled.

"I've got all the time in the world if you tell me you schedule." Gabby quickly unfolded it and gave it to her. She grabs it looking over it gently and smiling.

"We have workroom and lunch, spanish four, physics, advance mix media music and thats pretty much it." She smiles widely. "Do you play guitar?"

"Yeah actually-"

"Ladies. We need to look over our curiculm so pay attention." They both giggled quickly before looking at the teacher.

"And this is our fourth period class together!" Trinity said as they stood by the door. Gabby and Trinity hit it off pretty well talking about random things and being close together talking about startind a band since she is a drummer and Gabby is lead vocals and guitar. "Ready for some lunch!" She said cheerfully as they sat down in the back right as the bell rang. Troy ran in out of breath as he looked straight at his coach who was taking attendance for today. He nodded his head as he crossed off Troy's name off the list. He sat in the front only concerened on what was going on at lunch today. So far none of his buddies was in his lunch period so he had to improvise and think about who he would have to sit with and befriend. As he went through the list, he quickly stopped skipping a name.

"Gabriella Montez."

"Here." She said giggling. Troy's heart skipped a beat as he looked to the back of the room seeing his beautiful girlfriend sitting in the back of the class. She looked beautiful with her smile wide and talking to Troy's best friend Trinity. Staring at her the whole time, he waited until his coach was finished and then everyone could move around. As the coach sat down, he moved this hand to signal for them to go off and Troy darted up to her sneaking from behind, gently speaking as he wraps his arms around her waist.

"Juliet." This time Gabby's heart skipped a beat as she touched the hands around her waist. Looking at them and feeling the warmth, she knew it was Troy's and no one elses. She almost began to cry tears of joy finally seeing her boyfriend-well his hands. She quickly turned around staring at his eyes that looked into her happily. "See, I promised you we would find a way to work it out." She quickly hugged him missing these hugs and the times when she saw him. She held onto him as tightly as she could not wanting to let go of him. He quickly kissed her cheek before pulling out of a tight embrace.

"Did I miss something here?" Trinity said interupting. Troy quickly slid over Gabby's desk landing on Trinity and hugging her.

"Did I Miss something here?" Gabby said giggling.

"This is the guy that I was telling you about that's my best friend since 1st grade."

"This is the guy that I was telling you about my summer romance." Troy quickly looked over to her.

"Why are you here?" He said happily.

"I asked my dad to let me go to school about 2 months ago." He smiled.

"You found East High to go to? How did you know I was here-"

"Your shirt silly." She giggled making him want to kiss her and he did quickly hearing the bell ring.

"Hey, sit by us at lunch today." He said grabbing her hand as they left with Trinity following behind shortly.

"So, you're going out with Gabby. Small world huh?" Trinity said walking by the cafeteria.

"Yeah, it's amazing that you are here with me. I swear we would never see each other again." Gabby smiles.

"I have tricks up my sleeve that you don't know Mr. Bolton." She said smiling making him happy that shes actually here. Just then Marissa runs up to them after they just sat down and settled in the cafeteria.

"Gabriella! Where have you been?" She said way too perky. Trinity and Troy exchanged some looks before looking at Gabby who was being nice and smiling back.

"Just getting used to my classes and this school. You seem happy." Gabby says while Marissa giggles as her team joins her.

"I'm happy because you look-" She stopped herself staring at Troy shyly. "Hey Troy. How have you been?" She said nervous.

"Fine, look Gabby's my-"

"New best friend!" Marissa grabbed her out of her seat.

"I was just settled in and I would like to hangout with my-" Marissa pulled her away way to fastly before she could respond. Trinity and Troy just sat there wondering what just happened.

"Well, looks like Miss Popularity stole your girlfriend and my new friend." Troy looks over to them and smiling when Gabby winks at him. He looks through his backpack for some lunch money when he notices that he has a text message from Gabby. Looking around quickly before checking his text, he gladly opened it reading:

'You want revenge on ex-girlfriend?'

'How did you know she was my ex?'

'Shes crying over you right now.'

He looks over to the table seeing Gabby try to comfort Marissa who's crying with all the cheerleaders around her trying to be happy and make her smile. Troy smirks back looking at his phone about to text her.

'I'm ready for some payback.'

Gabby looks up from her phone and smiles looking around the table of the cheerleaders who look at her disgusted and why shes smiling.

"We need to have revenge on Troy Bolton." One of them says.

"And we should use you as the bait Gabriella." Marissa said.

"Um. What!" She said slightly surprised. Her plan was backfiring.
