Chapter Two: The closer I get to you

Gabriella pulled back from Sharpay and glanced down the empty hallway. "Well we need to get to class," Gabriella told her girlfriend ad they both began to walk down the hall. Troy grabbed Sharpay's arm and pulled her close to him creating kissy faces towards her lips. Sharpay kicked the boy in his knee and as he let go coach Bolton began strolling down the hallway. "Ladies foul play?" the coach asked as Gabriella starred up at the tall man. "No, nothing's wrong is it Troy?" Sharpay asked as the boy shook his head in agreement. The girls walked away from the guys and to their next class. Gabriella was going to science 101 and Sharpay would be heading to trigonometry. The girls parted ways as the late bell rung.

Gabriella tried to focus on her work but she was getting distracted by the small giggles in the back of the room. Jason a basketball idiot was making smart remarks behind her back literally. Gabriella began to tap her pen on her notepad as the teacher spoke but that's when Jason and his lame brain friends began to talk and laugh even louder. Before long Gabriella felt someone grip her shoulder, she turned around to face the culprit. It was Jason with his girly hand on her shoulder with a paper in hand. He dropped it in her lap and sat back until she picked it up to read. "What tastes like strawberries? Turn to the back," the note said as Gabriella looked back at the boy and curled up her nose. She flipped the letter around and in big words read Sharpay's name in bold black print. Gabriella crunched the paper between her hands and tossed it back at Jason as Mr. Reynolds walked to the back of the class. "Miss Montez, explain," he said picking up the paper that sat at his feet. He didn't unfold it but he waited for her to answer.

"That's Jason's property I was just handing it back to its rightful owner," Gabriella said rolling her eyes and folding her arms. "Well miss Montez you know the rules…no paper tossing, that'll cost you ten minutes of dentention,"Mr Reynolds said tossing the paper in the trash. Jason began to laugh to himself as Mr. Reynolds tapped his desk. "And as for you Jason, a half an hour writing on the board, I will not pass notes in Mr. Reynolds class to my girlfriend, understood," the man said waiting for Jason's reaction. Gabriella began to stick her finger in her mouth creating a gag motion as Jason shook his head. Everyone in the class began to laugh at Jason's face expression as Gabriella copied her notes from the board. She would have to endure a small detention order for defending her girlfriend, but she'll do anything before she let anyone hurt her, Gabriella told herself as the bell rung. She placed her books in her backpack and headed into the hall. She met up with Sharpay at her locker and the two of then headed to the cafeteria. Ryan was already at his seat at the top of the cafeteria biting into some pretty ripe green apples. Sharpay didn't eat the lunch food so she told Gabriella she'd meet her at the table. As Sharpay split from her girlfriend she felt more eyes on her than usual. People began to whisper as she walked towards the red carpeted steps. Before she even reached the railing Troy extended his hand out to Sharpay.

She glanced at it and walked around him. He ran up a few steps and placed his body in front of her stopping her in her tracks. "Sharpay how about me and you meet later on tonight, it'll be fun," Troy told the girl while at the same time sticking his fingers through her hair. She slapped his hand away and starred him in the face. "Whatever happened the other day Troy is in the past, I forgot about the entire thing and now you should too," Sharpay told him stomping up the stairs. Troy followed Sharpay close behind and whispered in her ear, "You shouldn't forget it…..I heard you scream," he said as Sharpay stopped and looked back at him. "You have the next two seconds to step away from me," she told him as he met her gaze. "Or what?" he asked smiling in her face and bashing his eyes. "Or else you'll meet the seven inch concrete with your face," he heard Gabriella say from the side of him. The girl was carrying a tray of pizza and other lunch foods piled into a small corner of her tray. Troy glanced at the brunette and removed his hand from his pocket and smiled at Gabriella. "You know for a little science freak you sure like to step up for your girl…..maybe you should be careful or we'll get you next," Troy told Gabriella as he began walking down the steps and towards his table. Sharpay rolled her eyes and began to climb the steps to Ryan. Gabriella watched Troy make his way to his table, then she glanced down at her tray and back at the boy. When Troy sat in his seat Gabriella gripped the slimy pizza in her hand and tossed it across the cafeteria. It slammed right on top of Troy's head and Gabriella laughed.

She made her way to Sharpay and Ryan and watched at Troy cursed up towards them. "Gabriella why don't you leave that boy alone," Ryan told the girl as he sipped his white milk. "Or….else what?" Gabriella asked as Sharpay took a deep breath. Ryan ignored Gabriella and began talking to Kelsi who had a stack of papers in her hand. "Sharpay rehearsals are at four," Kelsi told the girl as she nodded because she already knew. Sharpay was debating on whether to go or not. She didn't quite feel right anyway she was hiding most of her pain behind her suddle face expression. Gabriella ate most of her lunch as the four friends chatted through the lunch period. When the first bell rang Gabriella tossed her tray out and kissed Sharpay's forehead. "I have to meet Taylor in a bit, I'll see you later okay?" the girl said with a small question at the end. Sharpay nodded and stayed with her brother and Kelsi until the last bell rung. They all headed in their separate ways to the next class of the day. They all had four classes left so Sharpay didn't waste anytime to finish her work.

When the final bell rung for the day Sharpay walked over to the auditorium. No one was in the huge area so Sharpay walked onto the stage. She felt a small cramp in between her legs and she knew it was from the other day. God she hated those things, she never had them before, she told herself as she flicked on the stage lights. "Center stage," Sharpay told herself as she took her cue. She stretched for a small period of time and looked out into the empty seats. "Ladies and gentlemen this is a Sharpay Evans production," Sharpay said dully as she stood on her tip toes. She spun around the stage as if she was a ballet dancer until she felt a chill run down her spine. She stopped in the middle of her dancing and looked out into the empty seats. A small shadow moved about as Sharpay called out to it, "who's there," she asked waiting for a response. She strained her eyes to see out into the dark shadows until the figure walked out clapping at her performance. "Brave sis," Sharpay heard Ryan say as she breathed a sign on relief. "Don't do that," Sharpay said when her brother was close enough for her t playfully punch his arm. Ryan stepped onto the stage and studied the set and began to move things around. Sharpay watched his every move until he placed his hand out to her.

"May I have this dance my lady," Ryan asked his sister as she blushed. "Why not," Sharpay said grabbing his hand and placing her arms around his neck. He twirled her across the stage as they danced to no music at all. When Sharpay got tired she pulled away from Ryan and took a sip of bottled water. "Great job Ry" Sharpay complimented her brother as he bowed and kissed her hand. "It was my pleasure," he said walking backstage and out of Sharpay's sight. She sat on the piano seat and kicked off her left shoe so she could examine her feet. That's when she felt a sharp pain in her side which made her drop her leg and breath hard. "One….two," Sharpay began to count to ten until the pain fainted. Sharpay layed on the piano keys breathing in slowly when the pain was gone. "Hey that's not a Toy," Sharpay heard Kelsi yell from down stage. "Sorry," Sharpay said as Kelsi looked stunned to see the girl on the piano. "I thought you were someone else, I'm sorry Sharpay," Kelsi said placing her music on the piano stand. "No problem," Sharpay answered standing up with one shoe on and one in her hand. Kelsi stared at Sharpay's bare foot and pointed to it. "Oh its nothing," Sharpay said hopping to stick her shoe on her foot.

Kelsi nodded and began doing warm ups on the piano keys. Ryan came from the back stage with a rack of costumes sorting through the one's they could use in the up coming play. Sharpay began doing her speech once again as Ms. Darbus walked into the room with four other students. "Gather around, I have an announcement," Ms. Darbus said handing the students the new revised play book. "We must touch on a serious subject in our upcoming play due to the recent rapes at the school," Ms. Darbus said as Sharpay froze. The words made her feel ice cold but at the same time her body felt as if it was a hundred degrees too hot. Sharpay felt as if everyone was starring at her with their piercing eyes. "Now we need two girls as the main characters and four more people, guys or girls to play the other victims," Ms. Darbus said looking up at Sharpay. "Sharpay would you like a lead?" Ms. Darbus asked the girl. Sharpay felt sick as if she was going to throw up sometime soon. "Sharpay," the woman said again as Sharpay began to blink as her eyes watered. "Umm….yeah," Sharpay said turning away from everyone's face and drinking her entire full water bottle in a few sips. "Ok, Sharpay you can be Margaret," Ms. Darbus said as she named off the other characters. "We'll need auditions for the others and a few boys as well," Ms. Darbus spoke up as she sat in her favorite seat.

Ryan walked over to his sister and starred into her face, "Shar…you okay," he asked as she nodded and wiped the tears away. "My throat was dry and it made itch," Sharpay lied as she walked off the stage and out of the room. She wanted to forget the other night, and even though she only remembered a few things it felt like hell to know what happened. Sharpay paced herself to room 108 where the scholastic team was holding try outs and practice rounds. Sharpay forced the door open and looked around the room as everyone glared at her. Taylor moved her eyes from the erase board and questioned Sharpay. "You looking for Gabriella?" the girl asked as Sharpay walked up to Taylor. "Yeah, where is she?" Sharpay asked. "In the gym," Taylor said as Sharpay's eyes widened. "With the basketball ra….idiots," Sharpay asked as Taylor nodded. Sharpay darted from the room and down the hall to the gym. "What's her problem the girl wants to be a cheerleader," Taylor said shrugging her shoulders. Sharpay opened the double doors to see Troy and his friends sitting on the benches smiling at the girls in their cheerleading outfits. They cheered and sent rude comments through the air as Troy spotted Sharpay at the door. Troy nudged Chad and hollered towards the blonde, "Yo Sharpay coming to see the girls shake their bodies in their cheerleader outfits huh?" Troy asked as Sharpay looked for Gabriella.

When she reached the cheerleaders they all looked at Sharpay as if she was not wanted. "Where's Gabriella?" Sharpay asked desperately as one girl stepped up to her. "Who wants to know?" the red head asked. "Its cool guys," Sharpay heard Gabriella's voice from behind her. Sharpay turned around and looked at Gabriella with wide eyes. The brunette was wearing a short 12inch white and red skirt with a gold "E" for East High. The shirt exposed her belly button and it was of the same three colors. "Gabriella…..what the hell are you doing," Sharpay asked as Gabriella signaled the other girls to leave. The cheerleaders strolled over to Troy and his friends and sat with them as Sharpay and Gabriella talked. "Shar..I'm the cheer captain, remember?" Gabriella asked her girlfriend as Sharpay shook her head in disagreement. "When did this happen,?" Sharpay asked as Gabriella folded her arms. "Friday….I asked you to come to the game Saturday and you said you'd rather go to that basketball party…..remember," Gabriella asked Sharpay as she thought about it. "Gabi…I don't feel safe with you around……around them," Sharpay said pointing towards the boys. "Shar…this is my team," Gabriella said tossing her pom-poms on the ground. "But Gabs listen to me…I just think you'd be better off sticking with the scholastic team," Sharpay said as Gabriella raised her eyebrow.

"I said that I'm going to get them back and that's what I'm planning on doing," Gabriella said turning her back to Sharpay trying to walk to get her squad. Sharpay grabbed Gabriella's arm and made the girl face her. "Gabriella you are not untouchable and I don't want you to get hurt," Sharpay said as Gabriella snatched away. "I won't," Gabriella said angrily. "Gabriella," Sharpay screamed demanding the girl to listen to her. "Sharpay….why don't you want me to get them back, they hurt you and I'm not going to let them get away with it," Gabriella said as Sharpay rolled her eyes. "They didn't do anything," Sharpay said trying to remember what really happened at the party. "Sharpay….answer me this?" Gabriella said as Sharpay swallowed her spit hard. "What," she asked as Gabriella stepped up to her. " Why didn't you want me to be the cheer captain? because obviously if I didn't become captain we both could have been at that party and I could of protected you," Gabriella said as Sharpay looked at the guys on the bleachers and back at Gabriella. "Sharpay….what made you hate me because I made the team….tell me, what I did, that was so bad that it would make you drink and get…" Gabriella stopped as tears formed in her eyes. She still couldn't say the word that made her heart feel stomped on. "That what Gabriella….lead to me being rapped?" Sharpay asked as Gabriella covered her eyes as the tears steamed between her fingers and down her cheeks. Gabriella uncovered her eyes and grabbed her duffle bag and stormed from the gym room. Sharpay felt tears well up in her eyes as she thought about what she just said. Maybe it was true….she had bruises to prove it, Sharpay told herself as she looked towards Troy and the other guys. Sharpay grabbed Gabriella's pom-poms and left the gym to find her girlfriend.

I hope you guys enjoyed this chapter because I enjoyed writing it. You know I didn't intend on making Gabriella that bold but hey whatever. She cries too much as well….LOL JK I love her. Can't wait until the next chapter? No worries the next one will be up in just a few hours or early tomorrow peace.
