Disclaimer: I in know way own high school musical just the plot of this story.

Ryan's POV

My sister speed's into the school parking lot on the first day of school. The summer had changed so much about her but one thing will never change and thats her poor driving. She's a speed demon. The crisp air greats my nose as I get out of the car and begin to walk to the familiar school grounds.

The wildcat "hoopsters" are all hanging out as I walk past with no notice from them. Suddenly a happy yell fills the air and Gabriella run over for a hug. Opening my arms I embrace the small frame and smile.

"You look...different." She says to me looking at me from head to toe. She was right I was no longer sporting my pink hats and orange shorts. "Well I told my mom as much as I love her and as unique as it made me I was tired of her buying my clothes. Is it a good different?" I ask her spinning around tugging on my grey jacket jokingly.

She smiles and walks away. Somewhere along this conversation Sharpay had escaped me and gone inside. Her summer had been such a changing experience. Some would ask how much can a person like her change in a month, you'd be surprised. She still had her sass but now it came when necessary. She had stopped her constant fits. Her style went from tacky glamorous to drop dead gorgeous. She realized as much as she loved theater she didn't want it forever. She had changed.

Walking into the school I greeted Kelsi and searched for my sister. I spotted her from afar fixing her hair quickly. Walking over I discreetly hugged her so she wouldn't feel embarrassed. Smiling she closed her locker and told me she was fine. Turning she grimaced at the bright pink enamel on her locker. That was another thing she had learned about herself, she didn't actually like the color pink.

Sharpay's POV

It was 6th period my elective was home economics after I found I was too late to choose. Walking in the room I find I wasn't the only one. Zeke, Kelsi, Taylor, and Gabriella were all here. Sitting down at a station next to Kelsi she stares at me surprised at how I look now. Who knew a better wardrobe could change someone so much.

"May I have you attention class. I will be assigning each of you a simple recipe to see where you skills are. Ladies you have cookies Gentlemen you have brownies." I smile. How hard can cokkies be. After finishing I put it in the oven and wait.

30 minutes later...

I wish I had known just how hard cookies can be. What did I do wrong? My teacher tasted it for a total of 8 seconds before turning green and spitting it out of her mouth. She told me to stay behind after class. Once everyone had left I walked toward her desk and cleared my throat gently.

"Ms.Evans you are absolutely going to need a tutor. I suggest you find one quickly. Please use your time wisely. Thats all." I nod and walk out of the room my spirits low. I guess this is the down side to living a rich life.

After school I drove Ryan and myself home anxious to jump in my shower after a long humid day. Getting home I walked to my room and peel off my clothing. Jumping in the shower my skin is happily met by the water rushing down it. While enjoying my vanilla honey scrub I think about what I'm going to do about school. I can't fail this year and not graduate with my brother. I just can't.

Getting out of the shower I throw on a low neck white top and dark jeans. Fixing my face and hair I think about how much I've learned about myself. I still don't know what I want to do but I do know that it's not fail my senior year. I know what I have to do and I'm not going to like it.

I head downstairs and grab the keys to my now red mustang. Grabbing my peep toe pumps I slip them on at my walk way. Driving there I worry about the response. Reaching my destination I get out of my car and take a deep breath. I admire the small blue accented home.

Knocking on the door I wait for the answer which I receive moments later. I smile as a extremely small girl answers. Shortly after a tall frame comes from behind her. He tells her to run along and she does just that. Looking at me I can tell he's confused.

"Okay before you reject me and ask me what I want first I want to say I'm sorry. I've treated you horribly." He nods and I continue. "I need you help. I'm failing miserably and baking is what you love. I could really use a tutor." He groans for a moment. "Hold on. I'm willing to go out with you open minded and genuinely for the duration of the time. Who know's maybe my brothers right I'm just too picky."

He starts to think it over and I'm dying inside. On one hand I really like him on the other he's not Troy. But thats what I've had to deal with Troy doesn't want me. "Okay." I hear suddenly from him. Smiling I jump up happily to which he smiles lightly.

"Thank you so much!" I jump up and hug him. At first he's uncomfortable but relaxes quickly and embraces me tightly. I let him go but not before lightly pressing a kiss to his cheek. "Your the best Zeke."

Walking away I see him smiling. Getting back in my car I don't know why but I feel like I'm floating. I smile at him and drive away.

Okay guys I hope you like it! Please comment. I'm driven on it.
