Chapter Two is here. The boys first day of school. There's some humor, there's some drama. Oh yes, there some of Sharpay's signature screaming thrown in there as well. just not at the moment, but later! Hope ya like! Oh p.s. I thought about it and please don't send your characters, if you do I'll most likely use them in another story and give you credit. Oki doki, enjoy!

Mrs. Evans drove her children to school the next morning. As soon as students witnessed Cameron and Alex leave the same car as Sharpay and Ryan word and rumor were spreading like wildfire. "So Sharpay who are these new students with you?" Jack Scott asked, he'd left the sanctuary of the office and his microphone to come hear this straight from Sharpay's mouth. Sharpay flashed a dreamy smile. "Well my mother adopted these two boys, Cameron and Alex. Now I know your thinking, why would me and Ryan want to hang around these noobs? Its simple really...their family now..and Ryan and I care. So we're going to boost them near the top of the status quo, but," she gave a dry laugh, "their entrance with us has already done so!" Jack Scott shared a small laugh with Sharpay and Ryan. "Well my new comprades Ryan and I must bid you ado, we'll see you at lunch." "Actually," Lexi began, a paper covering the view from his face, "you and Cammie have theater together." Sharpay gave a fake smile. "Fun."

Lexi was in tenth grade, so all day he was at the far end of the building, except for lunch, he had that with his new siblings. And he had Calculus with Ryan as his last class.

All through Chemistry Sharpay had a slight dread for her next class, theater. She wasn't sure why. "Ok Sharpay you gotta chill girl! You're the star of this family, not Cameron. Ok...deep breaths...ew this formula stuff stinks!"

Finally the bell rang. Ryan walked with Sharpay into the theater class. "In the midst of night, in the blackness that matched the despair and suffering of years! A light was cast by angels! Salvation, determination. Peace." The class erupted into applause as their teacher, Ms. Darbus, walked in, adorned in leopard print with large green earrings hanging from her ears. "Thank you my fellow lovers of the art of acting, the art that is so skillfully used everyday without question, and sometimes even," Her voice dropped dramatically. "Sometimes without even notice." She strode to the middle of the class. "Today we welcome a new student! Mr. Cameron Evans please stand." Cammie stood up. Today he wore a sleeveless grey hoodie with Marilyn Monroe on it, pale blue jeans, and pale blue makeup. A few girls grinned, eyeing him. "Only girls wear makeup." Noted Zeke from the third row. Sharpay glared at her ex. "Yes and please tell the girl you were kissing in the hall to use some. Alittle touch of this and that can do a girl of her...stature..wonders." With a smile he sat down, crossing his legs. The class erupted with laughter and Zeke looked away. Sharpay grinned. "Not bad...not bad at all!"

"Alright class, we will begin with you "You and I" game. The rules are simple. Each student will go before the class, with a partner if you choose, and say the words, and only say the words "you" and "I" with a different expression. This game will show us that words have as much meaning as we allow them to!" Ms. Darbus said. And the game began.

First up was Troy. In a cocky way he laughed and said, "Meee." Like he was all that. Then Gabriella ran up, pointed to some invisible person and mocked a cheerleader, giggling and screaming, "You!" Soon everyone had gone, except Cammie and Sharpay. "Well you two?" Ms. Darbus asked. They walked up, and exchanged looked. Cammie looked to the wall away from Sharpay, and sighed, then quickly spun around and roared out, "YOU!", Sharpay let out a whimper and squeaked out, "M-m-me?" Thats when Ms. Darbus jumped up clapping. "Oh that was brilliant!"

After class Sharpay ran straight after Cammie. Ryan looked up and noticed his sister had left. "..Sharpay?" "Guess she left with her new side kick." Chad sneered from his desk. He was loyal to his buddies, like Zeke. And anyone who hurt, physically or mentally, Zeke was dead. Anyone close to anyone who hurt Zeke was the same way. Troy looked over at them, clueless to what was going on. "Something up you guys?" "Nothing dawg, just talkin." "Aight I'ma go meet Gabby now. Later." Troy left. Chad took Ryan's arm, followed by Zeke. And they vanished into a bathroom that was closed for renovations.

At lunch Sharpay was sitting at the table with Cammie and Lexi. "Where is Ryan? Probably off sucking up to a teacher!" Sharpay said, sipping her coke. Groups of students eyed the new members of the table. "Hey Sharpay." "Hi Troy." She said, she'd given up on him. Basketball players were losers. "Have you seen Chad? Or Zeke? They were suppost to come to a meeting during lunch. "Sorry dear, I don't keep up with your pets." "Thanks anyway."

Lexi was quiet, looking around. His day had been..ok. He spoke to maybe three people today, at the most. His teachers all treated him like he was stupid, cause he was new and quiet. Morons. Shyly Lexi scribbled a note to Sharpay asking where the restrooms where. She quickly gave him directions and he vanished. "Is he like a mute or something?" She asked, playing with her straw. "It takes him a long time to warm up to people."

Lexi wandered the halls. This school was much bigger then the others. He was used to schools that taught, maybe two grades like sixth and seventh. He was used to having small classes, and you have the same people in each class. Suddenly he felt completely lost, having taken a wrong turn in the algebra hall. He saw a bathroom sign and walked in. Most stalls were missing doors, and a sink. Two guys were hovering over someone else. "Hey!" Chad and Zeke turned around and looked at him. He was so small compared to them. He saw Ryan laying on the floor, a small bruise on his cheek, and probably more on his chest and stomach. "Your that faggy boys brother aren't you?" Lexi gulped. "Leave Ryan alone you overgrown hairless apes." Ryan opened one eye. "Whats he doing here?...Is he sticking up for me?...Why? He barely knows me." Zeke grabbed Lexi and threw him to the wall. "Tell Sharpay she wishes she was as good as my new girl." He said, leaving with Chad. Lexi scrambled up and went over to Ryan. "You ok?" Ryan asked. Lexi nodded, quietly helping him. "Why'd you do that?" Ryan asked him. Lexi looked up at him. "That's what people do when they wanna make friends. They help each other out." Ryan blinked looked at him. "You..you wanna be friends?" Lexi nodded. Ryan smiled. "Well I wanna be friends with you to." Lexi pulled him to his feet, letting him lean on him. "I know bullies. They always hurt you after you squeal. Always." It was now obvoius that Lexi had had some bullies in the past. "We'll go to the nurse, and say you fell, thats why your cheek is bruised." Ryan nodded.

Lexi led Ryan to the nurse and Ryan explained that he fell going to his locker. The nurse gave him so ice, and the two exited together. "Sorry this happened on your first day." "It was bound to happen, better have it over with." "We could go back to lunch. Or..if you want we could just go..hang out, get to know each other." Lexi nodded. "I'd like that." Ryan led him to the stage, it was empty, and they sat on it. "...I don't mean to be nosy at all..." Ryan began. Lexi knew what he was asking. "My dad died of drug overdose, and my mom was an alcoholic. Social services took us away from her four years ago when she tried to sell us for beer money. When they did she jumped off a bridge." "Really?" Lexi smiled sadly. "No...but thats what I tell people. Truthfully we don't know our parents. We really lived with our grammy who died of old age. Nothing dramatic or anything." Ryan wrapped an arm around him. "You seem really close with Cammie." "He was the only one I had growing up. You and Sharpay seem to have a nice connection." "Yea...she's abit bossy but she means well." Ryan smiled. Lexi smiled back, looking up. Ryan saw a flash of his bright blue-grey eyes. They were beautiful. The bell rang and they headed to Calculus. Lexi was in that class because he excelled in the Maths, and Algebra2 and Geometry were to easy for him.

Meanwhile Cammie was in a cooking class. He wasn't sure why. Maybe it was because it was the only class that had an open place for him. He was made Zeke's cooking partner for the day. "Hey Cammie, can you pass me the whisk?" A voice purred. The third member of their group of Zeke's new girlfriend, Cindy. She wasn't thin, and she wasn't fat (but her thighs were big). Her hair was a honey colored, and her eyes were green. Cindy wore a t-shirt with a picture of some washed out hair band from the 70's and pants to tight for someone with those thighs. Even with Zeke present Cindy flirted with Cammie. He was just to damn hot. Cammie gave her the whisk. He really didn't care if he passed or failed this class. She trotted over across the room to grab something, and to whisper to a group of girls about how sexy Cammie was. "Lay off my girlfriend." Zeke hissed while she was gone. "You can keep her. I like girls who are ditzy and think for themselves. Also I prefer girls who don't think stupid ass hair bands that they've never heard of are the shit, and furthermore, I'm a camera whore. I like girls who look good with me, and don't take up the whole picture." Cammie flashed a quick sweet smile and turned. Zeke snarled. "Look I know your just pissed at my new sister. I heard what happened at dinner last night. But get over it. You made out with that looser chick and got caught, so don't act like the victim rising up in triumph cause in the end your still a looser to." Zeke growled more, Cindy came back over. "Zeke? Zeke Whats wrong?" "Nothin baby...nothin."

Class ended and Cammie grabbed his bag and strode out. Sharpay greeted him. She had come to the conclusion that her new brother was pretty cool, cool enough to hang with her. They walked down the hall and met up with Ryan and Lexi as they were leaving Calculus together. Lexi was blushing, beaming. "And what, may I ask, is the cause that smile Lexi?" Cammie asked grinning. "He's just got a crush." Ryan said. "Who?!" Sharpay asked, eager to get the scoop. "And Ryan what happened to your face?" "Hit my locker." "Ow...now tell me who the person he's crushing on is!" "He's crushing her." Ryan pointed to a girl, tall with shoulder length golden hair. "I can't see her Laura is in the way." "He likes Laura." Sharpay gave a squeal, and they all headed towards their bus.
