A/N: ok here's the first chapter of the sequel... enjoy

Chapter 1

Gabriella was laying on hers and Troy's bed, in the apartment they shared in Albuquerque, flipping through a fashion magazine that she had gotten in the mail the other day, you see Troy moved back after she did, well not really on his own terms, it was more like she begged him to, and well you know he can't say no to her. She laid the magazine down when she heard the phone ringing in the living, so she got up to go answer it, she looked at the caller id and saw it was Sharpay and picked up the phone, "hello?"

"I got an internship in Paris with one of the world's most famous fashion designers," Sharpay squealed causing Gabriella to pull the phone away from her ear.

"That's great Shar," she said after her friend squealed.

"It says that there will be two other people there for the same intern."

"Do you know who they are?"

"It doesn't say who they are. Oh well, I just hope their nice or something. Have you checked the mail? Who knows, you might be one of them."

"I haven't checked the mail yet."

"Aren't you curious as to whether or not your one of the interns?"

"I am curious, but what if I am then I'd have to go."

"So? What's wrong with that?"

"I don't wa-"

"Don't finish that sentence, Montez," Sharpay said cutting her off, "you don't have to accept it, plus the intern won't start until three weeks after new years."

"And last how long?"

"A year."

"A year!"

"Relax it's only September, so if you are one of the interns then you have ten weeks to decide if you want to go or not."

"But if I am one of them and I decide to go then that means I only have three months to spend with Troy plus New Year's Day before I'm gone for a year."

"You do realize you this is why the internet and telephone were invented, right? Plus you can come to see him and he can go see you."

Gabriella sighed, "I don't know, Shar," she said as Troy came walking in with the mail, "I'll call you back."

"Okay," then she hung up.

Gabriella hung up the phone as Troy looked at her, "what's wrong babe?" he asked going over to her and wrapping his arms around her.

"Sharpay got offered an internship in Paris with one of the world's most famous designers."

"What's wrong with that?"

"There are two others."

"Again, what's wrong with that?"

"I could be one of them."

"I still don't see what's wrong with that."

"Everything is wrong with that!" she said a little frustrated as she went over to the counter bar where he laid the mail down.

"Explain," he said a little confused.

"If I am one of the interns then I would have ten weeks to decide on whether or not to go."

"Okay, I'm still not getting what's wrong with that."

"If I decided to go then I'll be gone for a year, bu-"

"A year!" Troy exclaimed staring at her.

"Yes, a year, but if I don't go then I could be missing out on something that would be helpful," she said as she came across an envelope with her name on it then she walked over to him handing him the envelope, "open it."

He looked at her for a moment then opened it and pulled out the piece of paper inside then he smiled, "better start packing your bags baby, you're going to Paris."

She snatched the letter out of his hand and read then squealed, but stopped once she remembered how long she would be gone, "no, I'm not going to go."

"What? Why?"

"What about us, Troy?"

"There will still be an 'us', there was when we left for college, when you were in California and I was in Colorado, and when you were married to him," Troy said as he placed his hand on her cheek, "and there will still be an 'us' when your halfway around the world."

Gabriella shook her head, "you say that now, but what if that changes?"

He kissed her softly then leaned his forehead against hers, "it won't, to be honest I don't want you to go, but I'm not going to stop you, because I love you, now go call Sharpay."
