She Watched Redux

by 0x-Coming-for-You-0x

She watched as her humiliation was delivered like a publicized execution. Cast aside like last season's Jimmy Choo's, she left only to return to her icy throne with even more contempt for her classmates - including her own brother. She had watched - and perhaps that had been her downfall - but things were going to change. Re-write of She-Watched.

1. Prologue: She Watched

AN: Well hey there, it's been awhile. So She Watched has always been the one story I was ever proud of. However, it's been a few years since I wrote it and I hope I can say that I have matured since then meaning that my writing style has also changed. The original She Watched will remain posted up but this is the redux. While similar, the plot is not the same and many things in the story will probably change. It's also probably a bit darker than the last one as well. With that being said, enjoy ;)

It's our turn and I'm loving where we're at

Because this moment's really all we have

She watched as Gabriella emerged from among the Lava Springs junior staff. She knew without even looking at him that Troy's whole face had lit up. He might as well have taken a knife and stabbed her in the back. Was the thought of singing with her that repulsive? She assumed so since Gabriella was currently the one singing a duet with him and not her.

Take my hand

Together we will celebrate

Celebrate

Oh, everyday

She watched as Troy leaned into Gabriella, his forehead resting upon hers. What a skank. She thought she was going to be sick. Perhaps her thoughts stemmed from jealousy but she had always been a good judge of character. There was a point in time when she used to want that – want love. But if it meant she had to wear such a virginal dress with that tacky blue ribbon then no, thank-you. What little she had left of her pride wouldn't allow her to, anyways. No matter how much Troy had come to mean to her.

Everyday

Of our lives

Wanna find you there, wanna hold on tight

She watched an explosion occur. It took all of her will power to not break the icy mask upon her face and wrinkle her delicate features in distaste. If there was one thing she was certain of in this world, besides her own beauty and talent, it would be her immense dislike for the Wildcats – especially in this very moment. Of course, they just couldn't keep their noses out of it. Their own voices broke out as they joined the singing couple. Oh, the irony! Betrayed by her own blood! Her dislike for her rowdy classmates now extended to her own brother who she knew had orchestrated this very atrocity occurring before her eyes.

Gonna run

While we're young

And keep the faith

She watched as Troy approached her and held his hand out for her to take.

She took one look at his hand before looking directly into his sincere eyes.

And then Sharpay Evans turned around and walked away.
