Gabriella has always lived in New York, but then she's moves to Albuquerque to find the real her.


Gabriella walked up to her new locker, then she saw jocks walking towards their lockers.

'They must be the popular kids.' Gabriella thought to herself then headed to class.

"Good morning, everyone and, I hear that we got a new student from New York." Miss Durbus said, pointing at Gabriella.

"Hi, everyone." Gabriella said, standing up from her seat.

"Good morning, Gabriella." Everyone said, then Gabriella sat back in her seat.

After the lesson had finished, someone outside the classroom was waiting on her coming out of the class.

"Hey, your the new girl, right?" A guy asked her.

"Yes, I'm the new girl and who are you?" Gabriella asked walking towards her locker, to put her books away.

"My name is Troy Bolton." He said, then went to the gym to play some basketball with his team-mates.

"Troy, do you think the basketball team has a chance of winning this year?" Chad asked him. when coach Bolton had walked into the room with his clipboard.

"I don't know, Chad." Troy whispered to him.

After basketball was finished Troy went to have a look at the Audition sheet for sign ups, then Gabriella went up to have a look at the Audition sheet as well.

"Hi, Troy." Gabriella said greeting him.

"Hi, Gabriella." Troy said when Sharpay showed up and wrote her name all over the Audition sheet.

"Were you gonna sign up too?" She asked Gabriella politely.

"No. I won't be signing up for anything." Gabriella said promising her self.

"Well, I hope we can find you some place for you in the show." Sharpay said with a smirk, then Gabriella walked of to the next class.

"So, Troy, when's the big game?" Sharpay asked, putting the pen in her bag.

"It's in three weeks time." Troy told her, putting his things away in his bag.

"You are so dedicated, just like me." Sharpay laughed out.

"Well, I better be going." Troy said almost walking away from her

"Toodles." Sharpay said waving 'goodbye'.

"Toodles." Troy said waving back to her, then headed straight to class.


Meanwhile, Sharpay had went into the maths lesson and saw Gsbriella doing some work.

"Gabriella, usually Troy doesn't interfere with new students." She said as Gabriella checked the board.

"Why not?" Gabriella questioned her.

"Because he's always been captain of the East High Wildcats." Sharpay said with a smirk.

"Is that so?" Gabriella asked, then wrote the times table on her sheet.

"Yes, it is so." Then Sharpay left the maths lesson to go and talk with Ryan.

"Troy Bolton was looking at the Audition list again." Ryan told her.

"Again? I'm sure that they have no chance of auditioning and that new girl Gabriella has no intention of joining the drama club." Sharpay said and walked of to class, which was Free Period. After basketball practice, Troy and Gabriella went to see Sharpay and Ryan sang 'Firework' by Katy Perry.

"Do you ever feel like a plastic bag. Drifting through the wind?" Ryan sang the first chorus.

"Wanting to start again?" Sharpay sang

"Do you ever feel, feel so paper thin?" Ryan sang.

"Like a house of cards, one blowing from caving in." Sharpay sang the next chorus.

"Do you ever feel, already buried deep six feet under." Ryan sang and then the song was finished.

"Are there any last minute sign ups?" Miss. Durbus asked standing up from the chair, then Gabriella quickly signed up, just when Troy Bolton walked into the room.

"Well, are there any other last minute sign ups? No. Good. Done." Miss. Durbus said and left the room to go and get some lunch, then met Mr. Bolton in the lunch room.

After Free Period had finished, Troy met Gabriella on the roof, then sat on the bench looking at the flowers and looked around for a bit, then they both started to talk for a bit.

"Troy, I moved away from New York, because my mum was transferred here." Gabriella told him looking at some Rain Drops.

"I know, my dad is just hoping that I won't let my team down." Troy said almost coming to tears.

"I wished our parents would give us a break already." Gabriella said getting up from the bench to go to class.

The next day, Gabriella went to school and saw a boy walking up to her, then she shut her locker and headed straight to class as always, then she saw Troy smile at her, then gave a polite wave.

"I trust you all had a very good weekend?" Miss. Durbus questioned them all, before calling out names for the spring musical.

"Yes, we did have a very good weekend, Miss. Durbus." Jason said, then the entire class groaned at that.

"Class, I have announcement to make." Miss. Durbus shouted out to the entire class.

"These names are in order the first name is: Gabriella, Ryan, Sharpay and Troy, but these are the original groups, Troy and Gabriella, Ryan and Sharpay Evans." Miss. Durbus shouted out of the top of her lungs.

"What?!" Troy said looking at Chad.

"You sing now, since when?" Chad yelled at him.

"Since I started chasing my dreams of singing on stage with my girl." Troy yelled back at him, then walked of and went up the steps to the roof garden.

"Troy, what the matter?" A voice said behind him.

"Oh, it's you, I thought you were Chad, Gabriella." Troy cried and Gabriella pulled him in for a hug.

"Of course it was me. Who do think I am? Santa Claws." She told him nicely, then realised that he was holding her hand.

"No, your not Santa Claws." Troy said looking at her eyes sparkling like diamonds.

"I know I'm not and my mum is making brownies tonight. Do you wanna come home with me tonight?" Gabriella asked and he nodded his head.

"Yes, I do wanna come home with you for some brownies tonight, Gabriella. I wouldn't miss it for the world." Troy said almost kissing her lips, but then it was time to go to class and Troy had let her go, then followed after her.

"Troy, I'm sorry for yelling at you in the classroom." Chad apologised to him after yelling at him.

"Chad, I almost kissed her." Troy cried and Chad paused for a minute, or 2.
