It is first period in Mrs. Darbus's Theatre Arts class. Mrs. Darbus is finishing her lecture about Shekespeare.

Mrs. Darbus: And it is important for you to know the importance of Shakespeare's symbolism in his plays.

She looks at the clock.

Mrs. Darbus: Well we only have fifteen mintues left, so everyone just use the rest of the time to socialize.

Troy moves to the emty desk beside Gabriella.

Troy: So I was thinking, that maybe after school we could--

Mrs. Darbus: Oh I almost forgot, the first rehearsal for Twinkle Towne will be today after school.

Troy: Crap.

Gabriella giggles.

Gabriella: Well so much for our plans.

Troy: Yeah, but at least we'll be together, and be singing.

Gabriella: Yeah, it'll be great. You know, after everything we've been through the past few weeks, everything is finally starting to get better.

Troy: Knock on wood. Ha.

Gabriella knocks on her desk.

Troy: Have you talked to Kelsi lately about any of the other songs that are in the show.

Gabriella: No, but we already know most of them.

Troy: Do you think we'll have to sing Bop to the Top?

Gabriella: God, I hope not. That's all we need is to look like a couple of idiots jumping around on stage.

Troy: Ha. Yeah.

Gabriella: But I'm sure that it would be fun. If we both did it. But we shouldn't be thinking about what will happen later. Let's just focus on right now.

Troy: Well what do you want to do right now? Cause I'm kinda bored y'know with this class and stuff, and how the heck does Darbus think we're supposed to find out how to symbolize this crap--

Gabriella kisses Troy.

Troy: Wow.

Gabriella: I had to shut you up somehow. Hahaha.

Troy: Gabriella.

Gabriela: Hm?

Troy: Your the greatest.

Gabriella: No you are.

Troy: No you are.

They both start laughing. Slow up beat pop music starts to play

Gabriella:

(Verse 1)

You know that your the only one for me.

The only love that will ever ever be

Like the view of an ocean that goes as far as i can see

and when I'm around you the butterflies will flee.

All I want to do is beleive

(Chorus)

I beleive in you

If you believe in me

What will this love turn out to be

If I don't beleive in you

But you know I do .

You know how our love will always be.

If you beleive

That I beleive. . . In you

I believe in you.

(Verse 2)

Y'know our lives will have ups and down

And when they do you know that you will never have to frown.

Cause I will always want you to be around

and stay here with meeee.

I want you to know that I will always believe

(Chorus)

I beleive in you

If you believe in me

What will this love turn out to be

If I don't beleive in you

But you know I do .

You know how our love will always be.

If you beleive

That I beleive. . . In you

I believe in you.

(Bridge)

Troy: You don't have to worry that

things will ever get that bad.

I know you know our feelings our true.

And if things ever get that sad, you'll know,

That I beleive in you

(Chorus)

Troy and Gabriella: I beleive in you

If you believe in me

What will this love turn out to be

If I don't beleive in you

But you know I do .

You know how our love will always be.

If you beleive

That I beleive. . . In you

I believe in you.

I believe in you.

The music stops. Troy and Gabriella are looking into each others eyes. Then a girl walks into the classroom. She has long blone hair, and she is wearing clothes that look like something Sharpay would wear. She walks up to Mrs. Darbus's desk.

Mrs. Darbus: Everyone, can I have your attention please? We have a new student.

Chad looks at Sharpay.

Chad: Lokks like you've got some competition Sharpay.

Sharpay: Shut up Chad. you're not funny.

Mrs. Darbus: Class, this is Tiara. I hope you will make her feel welcome.


Dun Dun Dahhh.

Okay, I feel kinda dumb by adding Tiara even though we won't see her till High School Musical 3. But I wanted Sharpay to have more people to fight with, and I have an idea of a song for Tiara. Oh, and yeah I wrote that song myself. I think it's better than " A Whole New Beginning" but you guys can be the judge of that. Oh and I relize that I spelled Believe wrong a lot. lol. Just ignore it.

My Track listing for High School Musical 1 and a Half:

1. A Whole New Beginning

2. I Believe in You
