A/N I DON'T OWN ANYTHING!

Gabriella Montez walked out of her class room with her books clutched to her chest. She stopped at the meeting spot where she was suppose to meet her boyfriend Troy Bolton. She looked around and didn't see him anywhere. A voice startled her.

"I figured you'd be the last one out of the building."

Gabriella looked up and standing in the tree was none other than Troy. She giggled.

"You are so crazy Wildcat."

Troy just shrugged and jumped down. Gabriella gasped. The jump was not that high and Troy did not get hurt at all but Gabriella always worried about him.

"Must you always make my heart stop?"

"I'm sorry angel. I guess I should start it again."

Troy went over and kissed her on the lips. Gabriella kissed back. They pulled back needing air.

"So are you ready to go?"

"Yep let's go."

Troy and Gabriella both attended U of A so they could stay close to home. Yes they lived together. You see growing up Gabriella was abused. When she was sixteen she was taken in by Troy's mother and made a part of the Bolton family. This made dating all the more easier for them. They had, had a rough past year. Gabriella was kidnapped and then found out that her parents used to work for the mob. Together Troy and Gabriella faced those problems and now are living a happy life at college. It was spring break and they were headed home.

Gabriella was quiet in car making Troy worry.

"What are you think about over there?"

"Nothing…I'm just happy."

"I'm glad. What makes you happy?"

"Well I'm doing great in my classes; I have a wonderful life and friends."

"Hmmm I didn't hear anything about a wonderful boyfriend."

"Wonderful boyfriend? Why would I say that?"

"Hmm ok well if that makes you happy, you know what makes me happy?"

"What?"

"Tickling you."

"If you do it while your drive we could crash."

Just as Troy pulled up to a traffic light it turned red. Gabriella groaned that was just her luck. She burst into giggles when Troy tickled her sides.

"Now what were you saying about the wonderful people in your life?" Troy asked teasingly.

"I have the most wonderful boyfriend in the whole world." Gabriella giggled.

Troy stopped just as the light turned green. He laughed and looked both ways just to make sure and started to drive. Then out of the corner of Troy's eyes he saw a speeding car heading toward Gabriella's side. He quickly turned the car. Gabriella giggled at first.

"What are you doing?"

Then she saw the car and knew what he had done. Her eyes went wide.

"Troy no turn the car around!"

It was too late. The car hit them sending their car spinning out of control. Gabriella watched as tree, cars, and light, all flashed by quickly. The car flipped and continued to roll. Gabriella wished this could all be a dream but it wasn't. Finally the car stopped. Both Troy and Gabriella had blacked out and were now stuck inside the car bleeding and all cut up. A figure walked over to the car. He smirked as he saw Troy bleeding from the head. He went over to Gabriella's side and pulled her out through the already broken window. The figure just walked away leaving Troy alone.

With Jack and Lucille they had started to worry because the kids hadn't arrived yet.

"Do you have that same bad feeling I do?" Jack asked.

"Yes. Let's go look for them." Lucille nodded.

Just before they left the phone rang. Lucille ran to answer it.

"Hello?"

Jack watched as tears filled her eyes and she started shaking. He had a terrible feeling he knew why. Lucille said they'd be right over and hung up. She turned to Jack and burst into tears. He ran over to her and hugged her. "What's wrong?"

"That was the hospital. Troy and Gabriella were in a car crash. Troy is in the ICU."

Jack went white. They both rushed to the hospital. They rushed inside and asked for Troy. They went to the right floor and up to the doctor.

"Please tell me my baby's going to be ok?" Lucille cried.

"We had to do surgery to stop the bleeding in his head."

"OH my gosh!" Jack gasped.

"He is alive but is in a coma. I'm sorry there is nothing more I can do. I'm not sure when or even if he will ever wake up."

Lucille cried harder. Jack hugged her close.

"What about Gabriella?"

"Who?"

"Gabriella Montez. She was in the car with Troy."

"I'm sorry only Troy was brought in."

Both Jack and Lucille shared a look. That only meant one thing….Gabriella was missing.

A/N ok this is just the first chapter. Should I continue?
