Prologue
"Daniel, where are you?" I panicked looking around the dark yet familiar forest.
"You promised Sharpay" I turned to see Daniel hidden in the shadows "You promised that we'd be together forever"
I begged to move closer to him but my legs wouldn't give in. "I know, I promised, but you died Daniel, you were killed" I said coming to my senses.
"You killed me Sharpay" the words broke my heart. I wanted to touch him but it was like an invisible force was holding me back.
"No! I would never hurt you" I cried "I love you Daniel"
"Then who killed me?" the million dollar question.
"I don't know Daniel, but come here so I can help you" I begged
"I can't. Something's holding me here."
That's when I saw it. Behind Daniel I could just make out the outline of a figure. I panicked.
"Daniel come on you can try, just come here" I wanted to scream but instead managed to say reassuringly.
"I can't Sharpay" he sounded so scared. I looked behind him to notice the figure was close by; the thing that scared me the most was the obvious gun in its hand.
"Daniel please baby try…for me" I turned to look at him, trying to capture his blue-grey eyes but they were still hidden behind the shadows.
"Ok I'll try" he replied and began to move closer.
"Yes baby that's it" I reassured him as my heart beat sped up.
His hands were not far away and I began to reach out when a gun shot went off.
…
Sharpay Evans awoke instantly from her reoccurring dream, no not dream. Nightmare. The same nightmare that had been haunting her for almost six months.
But she refused to dwell on it because truth be told it brought up memories that she was trying so hard to forget.
Breathing a sign, the blonde beauty quietly removed herself from her bed, careful not to wake the roommate that she had yet to officially meet.
She tip toed across the ugly coral-coloured carpet and towards the full length window that offered her a fair view of her new school. Boarding school to be exact.
Welcome to Eastlington
The bland sign painted in white with bold red lettering was imprinted clearly in her mind, partially due to the fact that when her and her mom had driven past it she had immediately started protesting, begging Linda Evans to turn around and drive back home.
But of course going back home wasn't an option. Home was gone, and instead replaced by a smaller bedroom, co-ed bathroom, and more trees.
Sharpay hated trees. To her it blocked everything off. Starring out the window, she found it hard to find any sort of civilization beyond the dark bristly stalks. To her it made the place seem even lonelier.
But these days Sharpay had never felt more lonely in her life.
As she tip-toed back to her single bed and got under the pastel green covers Sharpay begged for a pristine scenery of yellowy, green meadows surrounded by butterflies and fairies to take place. But over throwing her imagination was Daniel's broad, still familiar voice repeating the thing she knew she had broken.
"You promised Sharpay. You promised we'd be together forever"
This made it impossible for Sharpay's imaginary world to take place.
