Author's Note: I feel like I haven't written something in so long guys! I'm writing this three-shot. Each of the chapter's is really short, but I wanted this in three separate parts. I never really wrote something "unique." So I spent some time thinking about this one. I hope you enjoy it. Always, schoolgirl 101


"Guys...let's play a game!" Sharpay announced clapping her two hands together.

The gang raised their heads and turned to look at Sharpay. They were all there. Troy, Gabriella, Chad, Taylor, Zeke, Jason, Kelsi, Ryan and Martha.

"I said, let's play a game!" Sharpay yelled louder.

"We heard you the first time Sharpay!" Chad groaned.

"Well, good! We've been stuffing our faces with so much food, I swear, I gained like five pounds! Let's do something fun!" Sharpay smiled.

"And what kind of fun are you talking about?" Kelsi questioned.

"I don't know. Let's do something...fun."

"Oh no. You don't mean Truth or Dare?" Zeke frowned.

"No!! The last time we played that I was forbidden to wear pink for a week!" Sharpay said in horror. "And besides Zekey, you don't like it, so we don't have to play it." Sharpay smiled as she squeezed Zeke's hand and leaned over to kiss him.

Taylor made a face. "If you guys start to make out in front of all of us...I swear..."

Sharpay laughed and turned to look at Taylor. Her brown eyes stared directly into Taylor's and she responded, "Look in the mirror hun. You and Chad are at it all the time."

"We are not!" Taylor blushed a bright red.

Chad shrugged. "I can't help it if I like my lady."

"Chad, not helping!" Taylor smacked Chad lightly in the back of his head. "Shar...we do not do that!"

"Hate to admit it, but Tay...you and Chad do make out in front of us a lot." Kelsi said.

"And you don't share a kiss with Jason every once in a while either!" Taylor retorted.

Kelsi blushed.

"Well, so do Ryan and Martha! I mean, it's a normal thing for a boyfriend and girlfriend to do!" Kelsi replied embarrassed.

Gabriella looked at the gang and awkwardly smiled. What could she do? Her and Troy were friends, only friends.

And yet she wished for so much more...

Gabriella sighed, and without realizing it, she leaned into Troy.

Troy looked down at Gabriella and smiled.

The gang noticed Gabriella's actions and turned to look at the two. Their friends eyes bore into the two, until Troy uneasily replied, "Hey guys, me and Gabs...just friends. JUST FRIENDS. So quit staring at us."

Zeke looked at Troy cautiously before starting to laugh. Pretty soon, the whole gang began to laugh, and Gabriella, slightly tense, joined in. "Chill Troy! We know you and Gabs are just friends. You were acting like there's a serial killer on the loose or something!"

Troy looked at Zeke and laughed. "It's going to be a long night..." Troy mumbled softly to himself.


"So what kind of game did you want to play then?" Gabriella asked as she looked closely at Sharpay.

"Pictionary!" Sharpay squealed.

"What?" Ryan asked.

"Isn't that the game where you draw something, and a person guesses what it is?" Jason asked.

Sharpay nodded. "Yeah. I figured we mix things up a bit. I mean, Truth and Dare is a classic...but we can make Pictionary a classic too, right?"

"Are you really serious about this one Sharpay?" Taylor asked.

"Very. I mean...I got it all planned." Sharpay said as she got up and left the room. She came back holding one of Ryan's hats, and rolling out a white board from her room.

"What are you doing with my hat Shar?" Ryan asked getting up from the floor.

"Oh, shut it Ryan. I put the words and the markers in this hat. I won't answer, but I can draw something. I also thought of a way to make the game harder."

"And what did you come up with?" Zeke asked.

"Well instead of drawing what the thing is, I thought we'd have to draw a phrase associated to the thing." Sharpay announced.

"I don't get it," Taylor replied.

"Um, like if your word was hat, you would draw Ryan and a picture of the world. The phrase would be Ryan's world. Hat's are Ryan's world, right?"

Ryan nodded. "That's a good one Sharpay."

Sharpay nodded. "I thought so. So who's up for playing?"

"I'm in."

"Me too."

The gang responded and nodded their heads. At least it was better than Truth or Dare.


"Okay...so let's see who goes first..." Sharpay mumbled. "Taylor!"

"Why do I have to go first Sharpay?" Taylor stammered.

"Cause you can be the first person to choose who goes next!" Sharpay smiled.

Taylor looked at Sharpay and sighed. "Fine. But only to get this over with. And guys, trust me...I don't draw very good."

The gang laughed. "Nothing to be ashamed of." Troy remarked.

Taylor laughed and walked over to Ryan's hat. She grabbed a piece of paper from the hat, and a marker nearby. "Okay, here goes," Taylor breathed as she unfolded the piece of paper.

"Yes!" Taylor grinned. "This one is so easy." She slowly approached the board and began to draw.

Silence.

"Look, it's a circle!" Gabriella laughed. "Your brilliant Taylor!"

"Oh, be quiet Gabriella!" Taylor threatened as she continued to draw.

The group watched as Taylor continued to draw. The circle was taking the shape of a face. Taylor's hand moved to the top of the head, and began to draw huge scribbles.

"Why does that person have extremely large hair?" Chad stupidly asked.

Troy looked at Chad intently hoping he was being sarcastic. Troy was sadly mistaken.

"Seriously...guys," Chad looked across the room.

"AFRO!!" Troy yelled at Chad.

"Oh!" Chad answered. "Ha ha! I know who it is now!"

Zeke looked at Chad and rolled his eyes.

"Let me just finish the phrase." Taylor insisted. She drew a plus sign and began on her next symbol. When Taylor finished, she turned around to face her friends.

"Person!"

"Guy!"

"Man!"

"The last one." Taylor nodded.

"Afro man?" Kelsi proclaimed.

"That's the phrase." Taylor nodded.

"Chad," the gang said at once.


"Now that my part is over," Taylor spoke as she began to erase her drawing off the board. "I choose...Sharpay."

Sharpay shook her head. "I had a feeling that one was coming." She stood up and took the marker from Taylor's hand. Sharpay picked up a piece of paper from the hat and squealed when she read the words. "I hoped I would get this one!"

Sharpay's hand rapidly began to draw.

"What in the world is that?" Zeke raised his eyebrows as he looked at the board.

"It looks like a hand," Jason informed his friends.

"I think it looks more like a foot," Ryan commented.

Sharpay nodded. "Foot, right. Okay, next one."

Sharpay drew what resembled a shirt and a pair of pants.

"Shirt!" Gabriella said.

"Shirt and Pants." Troy added.

"Wait...clothes!" Martha spat out.

"Yes, that's it!" Sharpay giggled as she jumped up and down.

"Okay, so foot and clothes is the phrase?" asked Zeke.

"I don't get it..." Troy claimed.

"I think Sharpay is trying to say clothes for your feet." Gabriella said scrunching up her nose.

"What is clothes for your feet?!" the boys said puzzled.

"Shoes!" The girls mused.

"Great job girls!" Sharpay said nodding. She smiled happily at Gabriella, Taylor, Kelsi, and Martha before sitting down next to Zeke.

"Trust Sharpay to put the word shoes in this game," Troy muttered.

"I heard that Bolton!" Sharpay nagged. "You Bolton...next!"

Troy gulped.
