Why I love to dance.
I obviously don't own HSM, sigh…., this is only my second fiction so, plz just read and review what you thought!
Chapter 1: First day
Martha Heinz walked happily to her first class of the new term, gym, she had always loved gym especially dancing, she knew that's not what was expected of her, being a part genius meant she was probably expected to lean towards the academic subjects such as maths and science and there was also the issue of her weight, she knew anyone looking at her wouldn't think she could manage more than 1 press up. But, think positively Martha, she told herself nearing the entrance to the gym door, after your confession last year everyone knows you love to dance and you don't have to hide your passion anymore, as for the weight issue, I'm happy the way I am and if anyone else isn't that's there problem she finished out loud. She opened the gym door and gave a big smile, time to shake some booty Martha.
Ryan Evans was strolling towards the theatre, unaccompanied, for once, by his twin sister Sharpay. His thoughts ran leisurely over the summer he had spent, it had been amazing, he truly felt he had grown, finely stepping out from Sharpay's shadow and coming into his own, what with helping to direct the wildcats in the talent competition, he had finely won some respect for himself and found he could have fun with out Sharpay. He had also for a moment during that amazing summer thought that he might have a chance with Gabriella Montez, what with Troy stuffing up so badly, deep down, though he had known that her and Troy were meant to be and he had been genuinely happy for them when they had made up in the end, but still he had felt just a little bit disappointed for himself, when will I find someone he thought as he walked through the theatre doors.
''Hey Martha had fun dancing?'', '' Oh hey Kels, yh I think I'm a bit rusty after the summer though.'' Before Kelsie could reply a young dark haired teenage boy, had put his arms around her and enveloped her in a bear hug, ''Hey Jase,'' Martha and Kelsie greeted simultaneously. '' Hi guys, Kelsie you wanna grab some pizza? I've finished practise.'' he directed towards Kelsie, '' Oh yh sure, Martha wanna come?'', '' Nah I'm exhausted and I've got English next, you guys have fun though seeya tomorrow.'' With that Martha walked away wiping her back with a towel, she liked Kelsie and Jason but she knew she would have felt like a third wheel if shed gone along. I wish I could share a slice of pizza with someone, she thought and then smiled to herself as she walked out of the gymnasium towards the showers, I mean literally share a pizza, I'm starving!
Ryan and Sharpay walked away from the school's theatre. ''I think that went rather well don't you Rye?'' Ryan gave a small nod and smile to this statement, really he could tell his twin was pleased because Troy Bolton and Gabriella Montez hadn't shown up to audition for Mrs.Darbus's autumn musical. '' I mean I really think I would be perfect for the part of Amber, and you could play Tristan, oh Rye I totally think this musical is gonna be the best ever!!'' Ryan let her go on about the musical, he knew Sharpay had felt a bit rejected after the winter musical and the Lava Springs talent competition leads went to Troy and Gabriella, he could tell she couldn't wait to be back in the spotlight, as for himself he wasn't so sure, I mean I love performing, he reasoned with himself but it would be nice to perform my own stuff instead of being part of a duo. ''Ryan what do we have next?'' This question breaking into his reverie, he thought for a moment and then said, ''English with Mr.Fenton.'', ''Fabulous! Maybe we can read some Shakespeare!''
So what did you think!! Plz reviewJ

Hey here is the second chapter hope you enjoy plz review )
Chapter 2: The Assignment
Day: Monday (First day back)
Time: 11:00
Teacher: Mr. Fenton
Class: English
'' Right class, good morning and welcome back! I'm sure your all delighted, as I am, to be here again,'' there was some appreciative laughter from the class, they all got on with Mr. Fenton he worked them hard, but he had a sense of humour that made them feel he understood what it was like to be a teenager, he also had a no bullshit attitude that kept the troublemakers in check. The hour and a half past by quickly, with Mr. Fenton telling them about his summer holidays spent in the Caribbean visiting his family, until towards the end of the lesson he called a stop to the general lazy chatter. '' Now I know your all dying to know what your first assignment of the year is-'' a low groan passed around the room, '' so without further ado here it is, your first assignment, if you choose to accept, note refusal is not an option, is an essay, an essay about something that means everything to you, your passion your dream, your whatever! I want as many pages as you need and for you layabouts I want more than one page, capish?'' '' Yes Mr. Fenton,'' they all replied and started packing up as the bell went off, '' Remember I want it to be real,'' he finished and exited the classroom.
The week had passed by nicely for Martha Heinz, she had gotten back into her dancing, hung out with her friends and today the Wildcats had won their first game of the season and they had a really fun party back at Gaby's to celebrate, she had also just finished baking a cake for her dad's 50th birthday, tomorrow, a delicious recipe she had borrowed from Zeke and she would help to ice with her mum later on. There was, however something bothering Martha, the English assignment Mr. Fenton had set them, being a clever and organised person she had made a couple of brainstorms on her computer, for ideas for the assignment, but so far nothing felt right, maths and science she enjoyed but not with a passion, she liked hanging out with her friends and supporting her fellow wild cats at basketball games, but that wasn't really a dream and though she adored her cat Trixy there wasn't an awful lot she could write about her. No really Martha knew her passion lay in dancing but so far she hadn't been able to portray how dancing made her feel onto paper. She tried for what felt like the hundredth time that week to think of words that would show what dancing meant to her; its like, its like, I'm not Martha Heinz anymore, I'm just dancing and- argh! I sound so lame. She switched off the computer and gave a big sigh, its no good, maybe it'll be better if I write about Trixy after all, she finished lamely heading downstairs to help her mum ice the cake she had made in a more cheerful mood.
Ryan ran up the stairs, taking them two at a time. He was feeling happy the day had been fun. He had gone with Gabriella, Taylor, Kelsie and Martha to the Wildcats first match of the season, to support; Troy, Chad, Jason and all the other Wildcats. Of course they had been victorious and everyone had gone back to Gabriella's house for a sort of celebration party. He bounced through his bedroom door to find himself facing his twin, who was laying sprawled on his bed looking ready to drop off to sleep. However as soon as she saw Ryan, Sharpay sat up straight on the bed and commenced playing with the end of her hair. ''Hey Shar!'', he commenced trying to sound jovial but he could tell something was bothering her, ''See you've had fun with dad's credit card,'' he said jokingly indicating towards the numerous shopping bags on the floor. ''Yeah,'' she replied without a hint of a smile. '' How was your day, I take it the Wildcats won, right?'' Ryan was starting to understand what was bothering his twin, and took the decision to have it out with her, he knew his sister, if something was bothering her, she could turn nasty. ''Listen Shar, we invited you too-'' , '' No you invited me Ryan.'' She had said this in a surprisingly quiet tone that spoke more sadness than anger. ''Yh, well you should come next time, I reckoned you'd enjoy it once you get to know them.'' He could tell she didn't look convinced so he tried to make it more appealing to her, ''I mean really Shar, they need you who else is gonna be the drama queen, I can't really see Montez up for it, she's to nice.'' This last statement had done the trick, the corners of her mouth twitched as she tried not to smile, ''I guess I could be condensing enough to allow them to rub shoulders with such talented actress as I.''
Relieved Ryan gave a huge smile and cast around for another subject, lest she should change her mind again. ''So have you made a start on Mr. Fenton's assignment, yet?'', ''Rye I'm an actress not a geek,'' was her reply, she had sprawled herself back onto his bed, feeling more herself now, ''Well we need to do it soon, its due in on Monday and he said at least a page.'' Suddenly Sharpay leapt off the bed, a gleam of an idea in her eyes. ''We should totally write about being on the stage, it can be a shared essay I'll write about the acting and singing and you can write about the art and dancing!'' With that she flounced out of his room, going in search, Ryan had no doubt, for her pink laptop. Ryan gave a sigh, this wasn't what he would have chosen to write about, admittedly he had not come up with an idea for his essay yet, but he thought it would be best to leave Sharpay have this after all she had just made some effort for him, so he reached out for his own laptop and began writing about some basic dance routines he and Sharpay had performed over the years. A few miles away another teenager had changed her mind about doing her essay on her cat and had finely been able to put down in words her passion, although of course she didn't expect anyone would ever hear it…
Hope you like it, im going to try and up the pace a bit in the next chapter: Martha has to read her essay in front of the class and Ryan hears it..
