Heartbreak

Notes: This fan fiction will not all be happy; don't be fooled by the start.

Truthfully I have no idea how long this will be, as long as I have the inspiration to write I will update.

It's a Troyella/Chaylor story, although I may change that as I go along and bring in fresh ideas, if I am going to add or change anything I will post an authors note.

It is set when they go back to East High after the summer in HSM2.

POV's and Flashbacks will be used.

Disclaimer: Sadly I do not own High School Musical or any of the Characters in it. I also do not own any brand names or other TV shows and films I may mention.

The bell rang loudly through the hallways of East High School as the last few stragglers made their way to homeroom. Today was the first day back after the perfect summer break; some were excited to be back in the familiar surroundings of school, others were less enthusiastic.

"People, this is homeroom, not your personal chat time, you've had 3 months to chat, now is a time to learn" Ms. Darbus shouted at her class.

She waited a few moments for the class to become quiet.

"Right, I hope you all had a good summer…" she began; she didn't notice that nobody was really listening.

Troy Bolton sat smiling at his girlfriend Gabriella, she was smiling back, after an eventful summer they both had mixed feelings about being back at school.

Chad Danforth was staring at the clock, to him; homeroom was the worst part of the day.

Sharpay Evans was too busy watching herself in a mirror to listen to their teacher's speech, her brother Ryan was staring out of the window, clearly daydreaming.

Taylor Mckessie was nowhere to be seen, a fact that Chad had noticed but decided not to let bother him, everyone's entitled to be late on the first day.

"… year is an important one because…" Ms. Darbus was saying.

After what seemed like an eternity the bell rang out again, signalling the end of what Chad would call pure torture.

Everyone quickly fled the stuffy classroom and went into the hall.

"Anyone seen Taylor?" Chad finally asked when he had assembled with his friends.

"I saw her this morning, she said she wouldn't be in homeroom, she didn't say why though" Gabriella answered.

"Not worried are you Chad?" Troy asked jokily.

"Oh, No, not really" Chad covered.

"It's obvious you are" Zeke pointed out. "If you weren't you wouldn't have asked"

"I think it's sweet that he worries" Gabriella smiled.

"It's more sickly, he's like a …" Troy began but stopped at seeing Gabriella's glare.

"She's got you trained Troy" Jason laughed after Troy's abrupt stop.

"She has not got me trained" Troy argued.

"Who's got who trained?" Taylor asked coming up behind them.

"Taylor!" Chad exclaimed, hugging her.

"Chad was worried about you and Gabi's got Troy trained" Zeke filled her in.

"Awwww, you were worried about me?" Taylor questioned Chad.

"I was not worried, and we're gonna be late for class" Chad changed the subject.

"I'm not, my first class is right there" Gabriella said point across the half-empty corridor.

"Mine's down the hall, I should go" Taylor said leaving, she was glad nobody had asked where she had been.

"Mine's not that far, I can chat for a while" Troy decided.

"Go to class Troy" Gabriella ordered.

"I was just going, meet me in the cafeteria, free period" Troy told her.

Gabriella nodded as she turned and entered her class, Troy, sensing she was watching him, left too.

Chad, Zeke and Jason soon parted ways without much chat, Chad was still embarrassed over the whole Taylor thing, the other 2 had near forgotten that, after all, it wasn't as funny as Gabriella having Troy trained, and he's just unknowingly proved it again.

Troy entered his Math class to see Sharpay and a few other students already seated.

"Hey Troy, come sit" Sharpay smiled as she saw Troy and gestured to one of the empty seats next to her.

Troy's POV

What do I do? After all the trouble she caused this summer, do I sit with her? I could sit anywhere, but I can't blank her, she knows I heard her, Damn why did I look at her.

"Er, sure" I said taking one of the seats next to her.

It'll be ok; Gabriella can't be that mad at Sharpay anymore, she can't get mad with me for just sitting with her, no she'll be fine with it.

No ones POV

"As you have had a long enough break I am setting you a report on the life of William Shakespeare, 1000 words by next week" Mrs. Cook told her English class.

Gabriella sighed; Mrs. Cook had set a lot of Shakespeare work before the summer, and she got them to read Much Ado About Nothing over the break, how long was this Shakespeare buzz going to last.
