Warning: lack of Troyella, but don't worry! Next chapter will have PLENTY of Troyella, so try not to be disappointed.

Chapter 3

The Plan

You know, it's funny how I completely changed myself physically and I still find myself feeling the same emptiness. I was naïve in thinking changing my appearance would solve all my problems. You're probably like 'wooow where did this come from?' Well I am currently lying in my bed on a Thursday night, not being able to go to sleep. Just greaaaat. Like frosted flakes.

Ding ding ding! A light bulb just went off in my head. But I'm not going to reveal it just yet. Tomorrow is a brand new day, as I always say. Yes, you may quote me.

I woke up at 7:00 this morning, throwing on some light skinny jeans, moccasins, and a pink lacy thing I got from my fave store, Forever 21. After adding the finishing touches, I grabbed some grub and ran out the door deciding to ride the bus. It wasn't that bad. Hardly anyone rides the bus anymore so it's really quiet now a days. Call me crazy, but it's actually nice just looking out the window and being able to think. With Danny driving, I can never do that.

As the big yellow school bus came to a halt, I hopped off it excitedly. Once I walked into East High, I was happy to see Taylor and Sharpay already there waiting at my locker for me. Oh were they going to freak when they hear what my plan is.

"Hey girls." I greeted, opening my locker quickly to get my necessities for the day.

"Hey Gabi." They said simultaneously.

"I have to tell to you guys something. It's completely confidential, not to be told to anyone." I lowered my voice, shutting my locker and turning to them.

"Spill already!" Sharpay stepped closer to me, anxious to know what I had up my sleeve. Taylor just nodded her head, encouraging me to go on.

"This weekend, we are doing something fun. Not just fun, but crazy. No! Not just crazy, but insane." I said cryptically.

"Like what?" Taylor crossed her arms in confusion.

"We, my friends, are going to the Scene." I smirked, knowing what their reactions would be.

"Are. You. Mental?" Taylor, always the logical one.

"Hell to the freaking yes!" At least Sharpay is up for it.

"Gabi, we cannot go to the Scene. It is completely out of our league. We are juniors. Only a few juniors have the guts to show up there. It's mostly seniors, you know that right?" Sheesh Tay, I'm not completely oblivious.

Okay so you're probably wondering what the hell the Scene is, right? Well it's this exciting night club. Sounds ordinary right? Far from it. Get this, it's outside. It's on top of this magnificent hill a little outside of town. Every weekend a DJ sets up there and tons of people come to party it up. It's so restricted; I had to find out about it from my brother. He had me come pick him up from there this one time he got too drunk to even know where his car was. As soon as I pulled up, I was in awe. I know it's probably not the best place to be hanging out and what the people do there is most likely not what parents would approve of but I am seriously craving a night out. I've always been Geeky Gabi who never takes risks. Well this geek is going to have a chance to be a complete rebel for at least one night. So all you haters go ahead and hate because I am determined to have fun. Extreme fun. Damn, I should write a book.

"I know Taylor, but my brother has been there a few times and he's always been okay. I'm not saying we're going to go do drugs, drink, and have sex, I'm just saying it would be a good experience." I reasoned. Blehh it felt weird saying the word 'sex' out loud. I haven't even really kissed a guy, pa-the-tic.

"I agree with Gabi. It'll be fun and a great experience. We'll watch out for each other and if anything seems off, we'll bail." Sharpay backed me up. We both knew we couldn't go through with this without our third musketeer.

"Oh alright. But we need to plan this out more, I'm not just going to go and completely be blind sighted." Me and Sharpay squealed and jumped on Taylor. Eventually, even she gave in and joined the jumping up and down group hug. I didn't even stop to think about what the other people in the hallway thought of us, probably that were some lunatics or maybe lesbians. Ehh I hope not the latter. I mean I'm totally not against the gays, I just want to make sure people –cough Troy cough- know I'm straight and available. Gives me more of a chance, if you catch my drift. Pshh, like that'd happen. Anyways, I'm totally going off topic here.

Me, Taylor, and Sharpay conspicuously formed a super legit plan during homeroom. We had to whisper of course, and I kept getting distracted because I kept glancing over at Troy, gosh he's gorgeous. He actually caught me looking at him one time and if I'm not hallucinating, he actually smiled at me! Okay, blah, I have such a bad attention span. So Taylor and Sharpay are going to come over on Friday, tomorrow, and plan on sleeping over. We're going to make ourselves hot, I mean come on. This is the Scene. Seniors usually are the ones to mash the place up so we have to look the part. So anyways, we'll get ready, take Sharpay's car and have fun! Ooh this feels like Mission Impossible. Montez, Gabriella Montez. That totally works, I could be a ninja. Ooh ooh, since it's me, Tay, and Shar, we could be like Charlie's Angels! Hah, they got nothin' on us. I wonder who's going to be there…hopefully no one that will recognize me. But hey, the things that you take risks for are the things that end up the most worthwhile right?

Cliffhanger! Sorry guys, this was really short but I wanted to get it in there because if I put Friday night in here, it would be too long. Plus I think its better this way; the Scene can have its own chapter haha and next chapter there will be major Troyella, so keep reading. I'll try and update soon but REVIEWS would help :) Please tell me if it sucked.
