Start of Something New
Yes I shouldn't be doing ANOTHER WIP however this had been hopping in my head since I became blocked and decided to delete my fic 'flipped'...I do not own GH or High School Musical...Lyrics unless noted are from the film High School Musical

The story begins on New Years Eve at a small ski resort.
A young blonde girl of about seventeen was in the resort's gym with an older blonde who looked to be in her 20's or 30's.
"Ok," The older woman said, "let's try the routine again."
The young girl nodded at the older woman and began to run through a dance routine again. The younger girl, Lulu Spencer was captain of the Port Charles High School cheerleading squad, the older woman her cousin Carly was her coach.
Soon an older man looked in to the two blondes.
"Caroline," Luke Spencer said in an annoyed tone, "must you put my daughter through this boot camp while we are on vacation."
"Dad," Lulu said, "this isn't boot camp it's training."
"Same thing," Luke said.
"Well if I'm going to lead the squad to victory at regionals," Lulu said, "and eventually get that dance scholarship."
"At least go to the party tonight," Luke said, "It's new years eve and our last night here."
The young girl looked at her cousin then to her father and took a deep breath.
"Fine," Lulu said grabbing the bottle of water and duffle bag that were lying on the floor and headed to her room.

Meanwhile on the other side of the resort a young boy was sitting down hovering over his laptop as an older woman walked in.
"Damian," the woman said, "it's about time you get yourself out of this room."
Damian Spinelli looked up at his granny and shook his head.
"The Jackal is in the zone right now," he said, "I just beat my highest score and..."
"And your game will be here later," his granny said, "they are having a kid's party..."
Damian looked at his granny and rolled his eyes. He was seventeen, he wasn't a kid anymore.
"...Teen party," his granny said correcting herself, "and I think you should go."
The young boy pouted and closed down his laptop. He could tell by the tone in his granny's voice that he would have to go to this party weather he liked it or not.

A few hours later the party was in full swing as Damian and Lulu sat on separate ends of the crowded room. Lulu was lazily thumbing through a copy of Couture magazine that she brought down from her room while Damian was playing some game on his cell phone. Suddenly both teens were taken aback as the spotlight fell on them.
"Ok," The DJ said, "you...and you...come up here."
The crowd was cheering the duo on to come up and sing Karaoke and so reluctantly they both got on the stage. The young boy looked so scared and unsure; he was never used to all the attention. Meanwhile the girl, while she loved attention was simply embarrassed to be put on the spot like this.
Damian looked at the girl and shrugged as he began:
Living in my own world
Didn't understand
That anything can happen
When you take a chance
Lulu smiled at the young man and continued:
I never believed in
What I couldn't see
I never opened my heart
To all the possibilities
Damian looked back at Lulu and nodded to her as they both continued:
I know that something has changed
Never felt this way
And right here tonight
This could be the start
Of something new
It feels so right
To be here with you
And now looking in your eyes
I feel in my heart
The start of something new
when the song was over the two got off the stage and headed off into the cool evening.
"That was unexpected huh," Lulu said.
Damian simply nodded. Never in his young life had someone as beautiful as this blonde before him given him the time of day. He was for a rare moment in his life genuinely speechless.
The young blonde had taken his phone and proceeded to enter her number into it gesturing for him to do the same with hers.
As they exchanged phones the faint sound of a countdown had begun.
"I'm Lulu," Lulu said handing him back his phone.
"I'm the Jack...," Damian paused and took a breath, "Damian."
He handed her his phone as the sounds of screaming came from a distance followed by fireworks. He turned around to where the girl stood.
"Happy New Year Blonde One," Damian said but as he turned she was gone.
As he headed back to his room he looked at his phone to see a picture she snapped of herself.
'I'll never see her again,' he thought.

So how do you like it so far...
If you can't tell I'm doing sort of a roll reversal in which 'Troy' is Lulu and 'Gabriella' is Spinelli...next chapter we get to see who I have taking over the other principle rolls (I have characters in mind care to guess)
