"My turn to choose," Chad said, looking over his DVD collection.

"No, it's not," Sharpay replied.

"Yeah, it is, Shar. You chose last week and the movie was God awful." Chad slid a few DVD cases from their shelves before putting them back in their places.

Today was Friday, meaning it was movie night for Sharpay and Chad. This had been going on for the past two months. Every week, they'd switch of choosing a movie. Last week, Sharpay had chosen Legally Blonde: the Musical.

"It was not horrible," Sharpay defended, looking away from her fresh manicure. Chad looked back at her.

"Please. Legally Blonde, the real movie, was so much better. Plus, it had Reese Witherspoon and Ali Larter. Not to mention Luke Wilson who is hysterical," Chad commented before turning back to his many DVDs.

"Wow. You enjoyed Legally Blonde?" Sharpay asked, shocked at this recent admittance. Chad chuckled.

"There's a lot you don't know about me, Shar."

Sharpay smiled discreetly at her nickname. He'd called her that for the last week and it had easily rolled off his tongue since. She was unused to anyone identifying her by this name except her brother and even Ryan rarely called her Shar. Her parents always called her Princess. She would actually be okay if Chad was the only person to call her Shar.

"Your movies are so… organized," Sharpay said, noticing how they were arranged. The top shelf was only Disney movies. Beneath this top row was 20th Century Fox movies, then Warner Brothers and Lions Gate. Beneath that row were Universal Studios, Paramount, TriStar, and other companies.

"Thanks. I wanted to arrange them by distributor. Much cooler and original," Chad said, still trying to find a movie. His eyes spotted a nice box, much bigger than the rest. It was a deluxe DVD. He had quite a few. He hated DVDs with only the feature film. He was always willing to spend extra money for the special edition. "Ever seen Nightmare Before Christmas?" he asked her. He glanced back at her, tips of his fingers on top of it, prepared to take it from its proper place.

Sharpay shook her head.

"No. Never even heard of it," she answered. Chad's eyes widened in shock.

"You're kidding. You've never seen Nightmare Before Christmas? It's only the most awesome, most brilliant, best musical ever! We're watching it."

"I'm not sure I want to watch anything with the word 'nightmare' in it."

Chad pulled out the case and placed it under his arm.

"Shar, you'll love it."

"Cha-"

"No buts, Shar. You'll love it. Promise."

"And if I don't?"

"You get to choose two movies in a row," Chad negotiated.

"And?" Sharpay insisted. Chad sighed.

"I'll be your slave."

"School included?"

"School included."

"Deal."

Sharpay had spent the last hour and a half or so cuddled up to Chad, watching what he called the "most awesome, most brilliant, best musical ever!" They had gone to her house simply because Chad preferred her theater. Who wouldn't? It was down in the basement which wasn't like normal basements. Instead of being eternally cold as snow down there, it was nicely heated, so they wouldn't freeze (Sharpay and Chad often fell asleep down here). The couches and recliners were beyond comfortable, able to induce sleep if caffeine has not been ingested. There was a small kitchen just in case Sharpay and Ryan ever had the interest to cook. If it wasn't for Chad, the oven and microwave would have never been used.

Sharpay's head rested on Chad's chest as they watched. This had definitely been entertaining to her. Never had she and Ryan broken out into song during a musical as much as Chad did to this. He knew every lyric to every song. Sharpay found it more amusing than annoying. Chad made it adorable, especially during What's This when he was the most energetic. Sharpay had barely been able to focus on the screen.

"So?" he asked once it was over. He had a huge grin on his face when Sharpay looked at him. It was infectious she had discovered.

"I must agree. It is very brilliant, combining Halloween and Christmas, two of the biggest holidays ever. I loved the music as well. You are quite the singer. Ever thought of auditioning for a musical?"

"Ha ha. You are hilarious." Sharpay chuckled, which caused Chad's smile to grow.

"But seriously, you can sing," Sharpay complimented.

"Everyone can sing. Some people just have the ability to sing well," Chad differentiated.

"Fine. You sing very well, Chad Danforth."

"Why, thank you, Sharpay Evans."
