Yes! I am finally writing, the other author that writes on this pen name is finally getting around to writing a story for you, and a brand new kind of story, too! Here's a brief prologue for you.

I do not own High School Musical or any of its characters. However, I do own this plot with pride!

This chapter is dedicated to all my friends! Thanks for encouraging my writing career!

A Miracle of Their Own

Prologue

A sandy-haired, blue-eyed boy dribbled a basketball down the court of the high school gym. The popular basketball player quickly moved the ball with ease and skill. There were only a few steps left to the basket when he executed the Wildcat's secret play, passing the ball over everyone's head to "Spider."

Moments later the basketball went through the hoop with a satisfying whoosh and the students watching erupted into cheers.

"Matrine, Bolton! Nice work this time. I saw definite improvement in the passing," turning to the rest of the now congregated team he continued, "Workout tomorrow in free period with Coach Maddis. Be there if you want to be in the game next Friday," the coach paused to indicate that he meant business on that one. He signaled to Coach Maddis.

"Alright, guys. Hit the showers."

Students and players streamed out of the gym in a desperate attempt to get home in time for dinner, everyone except for a certain sandy-haired boy who, instead, was making his way toward the wooden bleachers.

Sitting there was a pretty, brown-haired girl with a pencil tucked behind her ear. She was surrounded by notes written out by hand on loose leaf paper. He reached for her hand and, receiving it, helped her down from where she was perched. Before setting her down, however, he swung her around in his arms a few times. This brought on squeals from the girl as she playfully hit his shoulders.

He finally took mercy on her and set her down on the ground. "I guess I'd better get you home." She nodded and took a few steps over to where she had left her notes. Then they walked out of the gym, hand in hand, and headed over to a light blue car.

She sat down in the passenger's seat of his car and waited for him to get into the driver's seat. She didn't say anything until they were a block away from her house, "Thanks for taking me home, Jack. You were great today."

"Thanks, Lucy; I guess I'll see you tomorrow."

She nodded as he leaned over to give her a kiss on the cheek. Lucy stepped out of the car and onto the sidewalk to begin walking towards her house. She waved to Jack one more time before starting off.

When she reached out to push on the doorknob, the door opened, revealing her father, who wasn't looking all that happy. Drawing himself to his full height he began, "Young lady, where have you been? Your mother has been worried sick about you."

"I'm sorry, Daddy. I was at the library," she walked past her father and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Miss Harden," the voice of Annie, the housekeeper, frightened her.

"Annie, quiet," she replied in a choked whisper.

The housekeeper nodded her head in a knowing way. "Ah. You been with that boy, haven't you?"

………

Surprised? I thought you might be. Please tell me what you think with a review. The chapters will be coming out probably every Saturday. Lucille is Mrs. Bolton's real name. Look under "Haunted High School Musical" on I'm calling her Lucy because it just seems to fit her character more than Lucille. Her parents call her Lucille though.

This chapter's theme song is "Our Song" by Taylor Swift. Listen to it and you'll see why.
