Chapter 1: Project: Friends is a Go
"You cannot be serious…" Chad looked wide-eyed at the blonde in front of him.
Sharpay Evans nodded her head vigorously. "I swear I heard them over the phone." She shuddered, "So gross."
"They were seriously having phone sex?" Taylor took a generous sip of her wine.
"But why have they been keeping it a secret? And for how long?" Kelsi Neilson shook her brown curls in disbelief.
"I swear, I wish I knew, but I intend to find out." Sharpay arched her brows suggestively.
"That is the look that spells trouble." Ryan commented dryly. "And the last time you had that look it left a bitter taste in my mouth, literally."
"Relax Ry, unless you know something I don't then you have nothing to worry about…" Sharpay smiled coyly.
"Okay, so what are you thinking?" Zeke asked, bringing the freshly baked brownies and setting them on the coffee table in front of them.
"Well, I was watching TV and would love to see how well it would work in real life…" She tapped her pink and white manicured index finger on her chin thoughtfully, as she picked up a brownie with her free hand.
"What TV show was this?" Jason asked, taking a brownie and breaking it in half, giving part of it to Kelsi and biting greedily into his half.
"Friends…" Sharpay avoided all eye contact.
"Oh my God I know exactly what you're talking about!" Chad said jumping up. "The one where Rachel, Joey, and Phoebe mess with Chandler and Monica! Ah I love that one!"
"I'm sorry, but should I be concerned when my boyfriend has seen this, but I haven't?" Taylor asked, waving her hand with the empty wine glass around, indicating that she wanted another glass helping.
Picking up the bottle, Kelsi handed it to Taylor, "So we want to do the same to them?" She asked.
Sharpay nodded her head as she poured herself the rest of the contents of the wine bottle. "Look, Sharpay," Zeke hesitantly picked up his girlfriend's tiny hand, "that's a TV show, and honestly, you really think they're stupid enough to fall for that."
"Zeke's got a point." Ryan tipped his hat in Zeke's direction, "I mean come on Shar, we're a family, they'd know something was up."
"Yes, darling Ryan, but I'm an actress, this" she gestured around as if it held the situation at hand, "is what I do for a living so I could easily portray the role of Phoebe." She leaned back as the latest idea sunk in everyone's head.
"And you four girls live together so you could easily mess with her, and us guys could…" Chad tapped his afro thoughtfully.
"You two cannot seriously be considering this." Taylor tossed her hands up interrupting their train of thought, "It'll never work!"
"Well if it doesn't work then it'll at least get them to tell us what's going on…" Jason chimed in.
"And if they tell us what's going on then it did actually work, even if we didn't get to have any fun." Kelsi finished his thought.
"Okay, you" Taylor pointed at Jason, "weren't this smart in high school and you" she pointed at Kelsi, "were not this conniving and fun."
Jason rolled his eyes, "You all so did not give me enough credit." He muttered.
"Yes we did." Sharpay spat out, "You acted like an idiot, so you were treated like one."
"And you acted like and Ice Queen so you were treated like one." Jason's retort shut Sharpay up with the click of her teeth.
"Okay enough, this will never work, and I can't support you in this." Zeke calmly stated.
Sharpay rolled her brown smoky eyes obnoxiously, "Honestly Zeke, quit being a woman, I so don't need your support. I just need you to keep a secret."
Chad laughed, "Yeah, you and anyone else who doesn't want to participate will be the Joeys, Shar will be the Phoebe, and the rest of us will be the Rachels!" Chad clapped his hands enthusiastically, "It'll be so much fun!"
"I'm sorry, but how are you a grown up?" Ryan raised an eyebrow at his roommate. "And yeah, I'm in."
"Look Tay, Zeke, you don't have to like it, but just think about how much fun it will be…" Sharpay's voice floated over their heads for a moment.
"Maybe I've been drinking too much, but I'm in." Taylor said, downing the rest of her wine, "And I think I'm going to become a raging alcoholic by the end of this charade. The hospital will love that." She mumbled the end of her thought as she walked out of the room to get another bottle of wine.
"Fine, I'll help, but just a little. I'd much rather remain in the dark on this one." Zeke stood as the oven went off, "I'll just get the pizza out of the oven."
"Okay so we need to start small and then go big…" Sharpay muttered.
"Well didn't Phoebe subtly come onto Chandler while Rachel like sent laundry with Monica when she was 'doing laundry'?" Chad asked, leaning forward and grabbing a huge slice of pizza.
"That's going to be," Zeke started his warning.
"FUCKING HOT!!!!" Chad screeched, dropping the pizza onto the plush white carpet.
"MY CARPET!!" Sharpay's screech easily matched Chad's, if not going higher.
Chad looked up like a deer in headlights as Zeke rushed around and began cleaning up before the blood red tomato sauce could stain Sharpay's precious carpet, one of the only surfaces in the house that wasn't pink.
"Look Shar, just take a breath…" Taylor was using her soothing voice that worked so well on her patients.
"Don't use your psycho voice on me Taylor Nicole McKessie." Sharpay's voice was eerily quiet.
"Breath Sharpay, it won't do any good to kill Chad, remember, he's a Rachel…" Kelsi warned.
Sharpay stopped in her advance, "Rachel. You're going to be a damn good Rachel or I'll kick your ass to hell and back."
"Okay, so everyone's good? Chad promises to be a good Rachel and you'll leave him be. He didn't intentionally mean to ruin your carpet. And look," Jason pointed at the spotless floor, "Zeke even managed to get it off before it left a stain." Clapping his hands together he smiled, "So we've got a deal?"
"Can you not be an attorney for two seconds?" Sharpay tapped her foot impatiently.
"Are you on drugs or something cause you've gone more crazy than normal!" Taylor tossed her hands up in the air.
"Hello!" Sharpay waved a manicured hand in front of Taylor, "Still reeling from hearing the phone sex!"
"Get over it already Shar, it's not like you and Zeke don't do it too!" Taylor sighed dramatically.
"So you're speaking from experience then?" Sharpay smirked and Taylor had the decency to blush a crimson red.
"Alright already, enough with the fighting!" All eyes turned to Ryan who had been silent for a while, "So we're all good? We're going to get Troy and Gabriella?"
When everyone nodded, Chad clapped his hands together, "Project: Friends is a go."
Raise your hand if you think Mollie's crazy! Cause I definitely have both my hands up, well not now cause I'm typing, but I will when I'm done. I know, I know, yet another story. Shoot me, I'm a hopeless addict to creating situations where I'm in over my head.
Sorry for the serious lack of updates on everything else, my little brother just had a major surgery and is still in the hospital. Which is exactly where I'm sitting right now writing this. I'm bored of US History. I know we're a fascinating country and I know it's my major, but I can only take so much of it at one time. (Yeah, that was sarcasm ). Anyhow, I promise to dutifully update as soon as Alex gets out of the hospital. Which is Friday. But them I'm going out of town. So when I get back on Monday I promise to dutifully update like the good author I should be!
So tell me what you think about this cause I definitely wasn't sure at all, but hey, I was watching Friends and started thinking about it and couldn't stop thinking about it. So what do I do? I put my very scattered and not well thought out thoughts on FanFiction. Yeah, I need to work on that bad habit! Review!!
Mollie XOXO
