Chapter Two: Sleepover At Sharpay's

"Gabriella, truth or dare?" Sharpay asked.

The four girls were sprawled on Sharpay's floor, with their sleeping bags all in a circle. Sharpay was like a princess. Her house was amazing and beautiful. She seemed like the girl that always gets what she wants (well that was obvious in the first place), she even seemed have her parents wrapped around her finger. Sharpay was a rather decent person, but her snooty, "i'm better than everyone" attidude still hung around most of the time.

"Truth." Gabriella responded.

"If Troy were to call you, and its late at night..." Sharpay paused waiting for her reaction. Gabriella felt her heart speed up.

"Go on." Kelsi urged.

"And he told you that his parents weren't home and he just invited you over. Would you go to his house?" Sharpay asked, knowing that Gabriella was extremely shy when it comes to guys, especially Troy.

"Of course I would, I mean Troy's my friend." Gabriella told her. "So there isn't a reason why I wouldn't go over there."

"Yeah but its Troy." Taylor said. "Super-Jock."

"A stud." Sharpay said with a gidddy smile on her face.

"Lunk-head basketball man." Gabriella joked. Laughter once again filled the room. It was almost one-o'clock that night, but it really felt like 9 o'clock instead.

"So Gabs, you like Troy don't you?" Sharpay had a slyness in her voice, telling her that she knew everything...about everyone.

"I...I didn't think it was that obvious." Gabriella's cheeks flushed pink and she could feel her whole body just grow warmer and warmer.

"Well it is hun." Sharpay wondered if Gabriella knew ANYTHING. "So you might as well just admit it right now."

It was silent for a moment, all eyes were on her. The pressure was on. "Okay so maybe I do like Troy. But only a little. We're only friends and there's on possible way I could ever date him or anything." Gabriella hugged her pillow close to her chest. "He's just so...well he's been with a lot of girls, and...i don't know." She said quietly.

"I think Troy is affectionate towards you." Kelsi said softly.

"That's exactly what I said yesterday." Taylor reached in the bowl for a handful of popcorn. "Troy DOES have feelings for her and at times...you can definitely tell."

Gabriella couldn't help but feel surprised but also happy.

Sharpay rolled her eyes. "Let me tell you something about Troy. Last year he and I dated for like three months."

Gabriella raised her eyebrows in surprise. Sharpay and Troy went out?!!? That was had to beleive. But then again, it wasn't.

"Well, there was this other girl that everyone thought that Troy liked. He was affectionate around her and he treated her differently. But she was such a ...I can't even explained it. I hated her. But it wasn't her that Troy liked, it was ME. So you may think he likes you...but you could be wrong."

"That girl was a senior last year, so she graduated." Taylor explained.

"Troy liked a SENIOR?" Kelsi asked.

"No." Sharpay went on. "Everyone thought he did, but he didn't. He liked me. Surprise, surprise." She smiled triumphantly, as if she had just won a prize.

"Now I have second thoughts." Gabriella winced, maybe Troy was just flirting with her.

"Don't worry about it. At least you have Troy's attention. Our relationship didn't work out that well. But ya know...we tried. Be right back." Sharpay stood up. "Getting more chips." And with that she left the room.

"So what time are we going to the mall tomorrow?" Gabriella asked as she snuggled into her sleeping bag.

"We're meeting the guys at 10." Taylor rested her head on the pillow. At that point Sharpay had arrived back.

"You guys can't tell anyone about Troy. It'll be so awkward and the last thing I want is to work with Troy in the musical and have it be awkward."

"Don't worry you can trust me with anything." Sharpay said. "And Kelsi doesn't even talk that much anyway."

"My lips are sealed." Taylor said.

"OKay." Gabriella said feeling a little relieved.

"We should seriously go to bed you guys. It's three in the morning." Sharpay said.

"We'll be at the mall in 7 hours." Taylor said.
