Gabriella's always tried making the best of what she's got in life. When mysterious and seemingly all bad boy Troy crash lands into her life, the things she's wanted start to change. They always say to learn to love what's good for you, but what about what's bad for you? Is it right to love a bad habit? TxG. Rated M just in case for drug references and what may happen later on.

Oneshot! Set in HSM3: Senior Year. Gabriella called Troy to tell him the heart-breaking news about her not returning to East High. So the only solution now would be for Troy to go get her and bring her back, right? Well, she's not too happy about his 1,053 mile journey.

Tired of living in a shadow of wealth, Gabriella ventures off to start a new journey: College. Seeking to be normal, she wants to leave behind all she's grown up with to be her own person. But her dad won't have that, especially not when she falls for someone not of "their kind". Someone so wonderful, so perfect, so the one for her. So how can her father believe he is no good? TxG
