Beauty and the Tragedy

Chapter 2: Hate

The next morning, Gabriella woke up and went into her bathroom to find her face was still a bit red from all the crying she did. She hated crying but when Sean said that, she was hit like a ton of blocks being piled on top of her. It was a good thing today was Friday. She decided she would go ahead and get ready and put her make-up on. She still wanted to keep her role as the Beauty, even if she was heart-broken. She decided on a Black Shift Minidress with a pair of Jessica Simpson Brand 'Evelyn' Black Pumps. She looked into the mirror and thought she looked good. She went towards her closet and grabbed her Marc Jacobs purse. Did Gabriella ever mean to tell you her dad has a good paying job and she get's what she wants even though she doesn't ask for it? Well that's Gabriella for you. She applied her eyeliner, a bit of mascara, and the essentials. She left her hair in a side ponytail with her curls showing. Some curls falling into place. She looked again and she saw the 'Beauty'.

Gabriella grabbed her school books and closed her bedroom door and made her way down stairs. She saw that her dad was sitting at the counter drinking coffee. He looked up and sighed. Caleb Montez saw his heart-broken little girl covered by her Beauty.

"Hey sweetie, how are you today?"he asked making her some orange juice and handing it to her. She gladly accepted and and began to eat her fruits for breakfast and then her eggs and toast.

"Ummm, sad. What Sean said to me about mom...really hurt me."Gabriella answered quietly.

"Gabriella, I just want you to know your mom left and she missed out on the most wonderfulest things in life. You. She abandoned us and she left me with you and I couldn't be happier. Just know your mother wasn't what Sean said. She wasn't a skank. She just couldn't handle being a 19 year old mom and ran. But you have me and that's all that matter's, Gabi."Caleb said from the bottom of his heart.

"Dad?"Gabriella said in quiet tone.

"Yeah Gabi?"

"Did...did mom love me?"she asked softly. Caleb sighed and walked towards his baby girl.

"Gabriella, she loved you more than the world. She just missed out. I love you more than the universe. So I have the greater power. I love you and go ahead and get to school. Be brave. Don't let Sean bring you down because he screwed up his chance with my beautiful daughter,"he said and she giggled and continued," There are other fish in the sea. Your fish is just...not arrived yet."

With those words, Gabriella felt better. She got up, kissed her dad on the cheek and said she loved him and grabbed her keys and went towards the front door. She opened it and then closed it and made her way towards her driveway. On her way to her Black Audi S4, she saw Troy Bolton walking towards his Black Range Rover.

Troy looked up and saw a beautiful sight. She cleaned up good, compared to yesterday. He saw the whole thing and heard the whole thing. Sean, he guessed, had said something really bad about her mother and she broke down. He didn't see that vulnerable girl he saw yesterday. He saw a Beauty. Not a Tragedy. Her dress was just the right size and fit her curves and pette body. She was small in the size of her clothes. She could pass as a 13 year old. He opened his car door and threw his backpack in and looked at Gabriella getting into her Audi and drive away. He got in his and drove off. His first day at East High. On a Friday.

At East High.

News spread fast about the Sebriella(Sean && Gabriella) break-up. Some were there when they heard and saw it happen. They felt sorry for Gabriella. Someone had told what Sean said about Gabriella and her mother and everyone gave Sean dirty looks but he ignored them. Everyone would think that Gabriella would come in dressed in sweats and a hoodie but they were wrong. Gabriella parked her car and got out. She saw everyone looking at her and in shock. She was gorgeous today, even after a MAJOR break-up. She picked her stuff up and locked her car and started walking into the front doors of East High. She wasn't going to let any one bring her down.

Sharpay Evans was at her locker and the rumors going around were spreading like wildfires. She couldn't believe the things she heard. She wanted to know the truth. She looked up and saw her Best Friend looking Beautiful as ever coming towards her.

"Wow, Gabs...you look gorgeous."Sharpay said giving Gabriella a hug.

"I can't let Sean bring my beauty down."Gabriella said with a giggle.

"Is it true? Did Sean really say that you were just like your skank of a mother?"Sharpay asked wanted to know badly. Gabriella sighed and nodded her head.

"Yeah. He did. It hurt like hell, at his words and that the fact that you were right. He was cheating on me with Leslie. I saw her in his car. I died last night. Now my soul but my heart. It hurt so bad, Shar."Gabriella said getting teary.

"It's ok gabs, I'm here and I will always be here."Sharpay said giving her best friend a hug. "Moving on...how's the boy next door?"

"I saw him this morning. He was wearing Stone washed jeans and a Graphic Tee. He looked good."Gabriella said.

"Checking him out, I see?"Sharpay smirked.

"Shar..."Gabriella strained out.

"Sorry, Gabi-bear."Sharpay said with a giggle.

"Sharpay?"Gabriella asked asked as they were walking to her locker.

"Yeah, Gabs?"she said.

"I hate him...And I know when we were what like 8, that I said I could only hate one person in the world and that would be my mother? Well I changed the rules. I'm allowed to hate who I want to hate and you can too!"Gabriella announced.

"I think it's about time! I know you hate more than just your mom and Sean...so who else do you hate?"Sharpay questioned getting excited as they reached Gabriella's locker and she opened it and started to put her books away, and get the books she need for homeroom and etc.

"I hate Leslie Kessie, because she was the reason Sean and I broke up, I hate Melony Peters because she thinks she's a Miss Perfect Know it all. I hate Logan Mats because he egged my house because he was dared too, but I didn't believe him. I hate Mac Turner because he's a freaking Druggie and tried to sell me drugs last year...and most of all I hate my mother."Gabriella said as she shut her locker and they started walking towards, Ms.Darbus' homeroom.

"Dang Gabs...Leslie, Melony, Logan and Mac...wow...Did you know that Leslie went out with Logan and Mac?"Sharpay questioned as the entered homeroom.

"No, I didn't."Gabriella answered. She looked up and Brown met Blue. Her next door neighbor was in her Homeroom. He looked at her for a few more minutes and returned to his art. He was drawing the Grave. His grandfather's grave. Oh, how Troy missed him so dearly much. Troy only drew for his Grandfather and now he drew because he felt like everything was gone. His mentor was gone. His learner of life was gone. But that wasn't going to stop Troy from drawing. Gabriella and Sharpay walked to their seats. Gabriella's seat was behind Troy and Sharpay's was beside her.

"Gabi..."Sharpay whispered during one of Ms.Darbus' speeches. Gabriella was zoned out. People were giving her looks. But with sadness that Sean would do this to her. She didn't care any more.

"Gabi!"Sharpay whispered again.

"What?"Gabriella whispered looking over to Sharpay.

"Have I mentioned you look really pretty today?"Sharpay asked. Gabriella saw a look in Sharpay's hazel eyes. She was hiding something. Gabriella sighed and looked at Sharpay.

"What are you hiding Shar?"She whispered. Sharpay sighed in defeat knowing that Gabriella was going to find out sooner or later.

"Zeke Baylor and I are dating."she said. I was shocked and stunned and then turned back to her.

"Since when?"Gabriella asked growing some temper.

"Umm...don't hate me I was going to tell you but Zeke wanted to keep it a secret...1 year."she whispered. Gabriella stood up from her seat and shouted.

"A Year!?"Gabriella shouted forgetting that she was in homeroom. Everyone looked at her. Even Sean, who was in this class.

"Ms. Montez...The Beauty of our school. You have interrupted my speech. And you of all people should know not to do that. Ms.Montez, why are you standing and shouting in my classroom? Aren't you suppose to be a role model to this school or whatever you want to call it? Sit down Ms.Montez."Darbus said.

"Role Model?...No way in hell am I a role model."Gabriella replied, still standing. Every one was taken back by Gabriella's tone.

"Gabi, just sit down. Don't make this any worse..."Sharpay said. Gabriella knew she was right. But that didn't stop Gabriella.

"Gabriella just actually follow Darbus' rules, or do you wanna end up like your mother?"Sean yelled from the back of the classroom holding on to his now girlfriend, Leslie Kessie.

"Oh..No..."Sharpay said out loud. Sharpay knew Gabriella was going to do something. Gabriella turned to face Sean. She walked over to him as he stood up. He began to talk.

"Go ahead and runaway. Your just gonna be like your whore of a mother who couldn't take having a kid and being married. So she left and that makes you wanna do the same. Walk out on life."Sean smirked but that was turned into an Owww. Gabriella had smacked him in the face.

"What makes you think that I will end up like her!GOD!Sean you have some nerve bringing that woman up!I told you about her because I TRUSTED YOU!I HATE YOU AND I HATE HER!"Gabriella screamed, slapped him again, went to her desk and picked her stuff up and started walking out the door.

"Ms. Montez, you walk out that door...don't think about coming back." Darbus said. (A/N: I'm calling her Darbus because I don't feel like writing Ms...lol.)

"Don't worry. I won't."Gabriella shouted and took off out the door and out of East High.

Ok, there's Chapter 2! Yippie!
LOL. I'm a sillie goose.
