Chapter Two – Lunch Disasters

4th period/Cafeteria/ East High

"Well I have to eat with…" Ryan started and Tara just sighed and nodded. "Go ahead I'll see you later." She said and walked towards where Gabriella, Troy, Taylor, and Chad were sitting with a girl she hadn't met before.

"Hey guys what's up?" she said as she sat down.

"Nothing we just thought you got lost." Taylor said.

"Nah trust me if i got lost you'd know it." Tara said mumbling a little.

"Hey I'm Kesli." The unknown person said.

"Hey I'm Tara."

"So what were you talking to Ryan Evans about?" Kesli asked and everyone looked at her.

"That's a good question, I mean he's a nice guy and all but he is usually with Sharpay all the time." Gabriella said.

"Oh we where just catching up. You see me and Ryan went to the same school back in Ha…. I mean Boston." Tara said and mentally hit her self for the slight slip-up.

"Oh so that's where he was for those 3 years." Chad said. "So Troy told me about his dad asking you to join the basketball team. I think that would be awesome."

Tara smiled. "Yea it would be but I'd have to ask my aunt."

"So you lived in Boston?" Troy asked.

"Huh? Oh yea but I'm here now living with my aunt and older brother Kyle." She said.

"Where are your parents?" Chad asked and Taylor smacked him upside the head.

"Sorry about him, he has no manners." Taylor said.

"It's ok. My mom thought we should move away from Boston, my sister pasted away about 2 months ago and my mom is back in…Boston she has to finish a really big project with the company she works at and my father... he and I don't get along very well my mom and him divorced when I was 7." Tara explained, unfortunately lying to her new friends in the process well only about the part as to where she lived and what her mother's profession was.

"I'm so sorry." Chad said and they all did.

"Hey it's ok. So what about you guys. What do you do here for fun?" she asked and they started to tell her and she listened, "Hey can you hold that thought I am really hungry I'm gonna get something from the vending machine." She said and stood up and walked up the stairs and passed Ryan's table. She waved at him and he waved back.

Sharpay's table

Sharpay had already questioned where Ryan had been earlier and he said he got held up by a teacher and then she saw him wave to somebody and she turned around and spotted the other 'new girl'.

"Oh gosh Ryan please tell me you don't like her. I mean she is so not even up to standards for us." Sharpay said.

"Hey she's an old friend from Hal… my boarding school back in Boston and she's really nice." He said. (Before he had left Halloween town they decided to come up with a cover story.)

"Well then any friend of your's is a friend of mine. I have to meet her." Sharpay said with a slightly evil grin on her face, she stood up and headed in the direction that Tara had gone.

"What wait! No Sharpay leave her alone!" Ryan started and went after his sister.

The Others Table

Kesli being the observant person she is noticed a strange interaction between the Evans twins. "Hey you guys I have a bad feeling about something."

"What?" Troy asked.

"Well Sharpay just headed in the same direction as Tara and she had that evil looking grin on her face and Ryan ran after her."

"Uh oh!" Gabriella said with her eyebrows raised and everyone exchanged a look with one another.

"Come on let's go." Troy said and all 5 of them stood up and rushed up the stairs and in the same direction Tara, Sharpay, and Ryan had gone.

Vending Machines/ Hallway

Tara had just gotten a bag of chips, granola bar, and a can of soda. She was about to start back to the cafeteria when Sharpay came up to her.

"Hi I'm Sharpay Evans. Welcome to East High so I heard you went to school with my brother." Sharpay said in a sicklingly sweet and fake voice.

"Hey I'm Tara Daniels... Later." She said and started to walk away, from what Ryan had told her she didn't like Sharpay.

"Um excuse me I wasn't done talking to you." Sharpay said in a less friendly voice. Tara sighed and turned around on her heel not seeing Ryan, or the others walking towards them since her back was now towards them.

"Ok princess peach, what did you want to say?" Tara said with her hands behind her back slowly shaking up her can of soda and using a refrence to a super mario brothers video game.

"Listen, I have worked far too hard for my reputation and my brothers for that matter to have some little low-life come and mess it up. He might have been friend with you back in Roston." Sharpay said in a mean voice and started walking towards Tara who stood her ground.

"You mean Boston." Tara interjected.

"WHATEVER!! What I am saying is leave my brother alone and we won't have a problem. Got it??" she said and was slightly taller than Tara because she was wearing high heels.

Tara slowly brought her can of sodas in front of her had the opening facing Sharpay "Hmm" And she opened the can of soda and it exploded right onto Sharpay who screamed and threw her hands up in the air. "Crystal clear."

Ryan, Gabriella, Taylor, Troy, and Chad all stood in shock and then started laughing their heads off. Well Ryan was quietly laughing covering his mouth with his hand.

"Ugh!!" Sharpay then glared at Tara and said, "You're so going to regret this new girl."

"My name is Tara." Tara said and turned back around to find her new friends standing their laughing. She smiled but when she saw Ryan she thought he'd be mad but he just winked at her as in showing it was alright and she smiled again.
