Hi, thank you so much for the kind reviews. Here is the next chapter, and then let's see what Sharpay is up to! Sorry it's taking us such a long time to update our other story No Sleep Tonight, but we're kinda stuck – kinda. It'll be updated soon, though, and until then, this one will have to do!

The Crazy Life of Libby Lee

Chapter 4.

Weird Conversations and Added Chelsea-ness.

Sharpay took a step closer, and grabbed the envelope her mother handed her. She took it in her hands and turned it around to look at the address. It clearly said Sharpay Evans. How did her mother know it was for Libby Lee? She wasn't psychic, not like Raven.

"How do you know it's for Libby?" Sharpay asked, shooting her a weird glance.

"Mothers intuition." Rachel quickly replied, "That, and I opened the envelope before you got home."

Sharpay rolled her eyes, and quickly ripped it open too. She took a seat by the table, and flipped the letter open, excited to see what was going on. Her mother looked like she was about to burst, so it had to be something exciting.

"…but before you do that," Rachel said, "Don't you have anything interesting to share with me? Ryan had some pretty huge news when he got home."

"Oh!" Sharpay said, "Like, you mean… the fact that Hannah Montana and Libby Lee is gonna perform at East High. Yeah, I was wondering how that happened!?"

Rachel laughed, "Funny story, actually… Your principle got in contact with Robbie Ray, and yeah… He said yes for the both of you guys. Please don't be mad at me?"

"It's not funny!" Sharpay yelled, giving her an angry look, "How the hell is that gonna happen!? And I can't turn them down, a lot of them are my friends, I don't want to see them get hurt!"

"Maybe you could just not go to that party?" Rachel suggested.

"And be the loser, the all-time-party-killer, uhm no I don't think so!" Sharpay said, "God mom, this is all your fault!"

"How's this my fault!?" Rachel shrieked, standing up from her seat, "Why do you always get mad at me!?"

"I'm a teenager!" Sharpay yelled, "That's what we do…! Plus getting zits, but that's beside the point! Why didn't you tell Robbie that I can't do the concert?"

"Because I thought it might have been time to tell your friends about you other life." Rachel whispered, her voice barely high enough for Sharpay to hear, "I just want good things for you."

With that she left the kitchen, leaving Sharpay feeling as guilty as ever. She looked after her mom, tempting on whether or not she should run after her and apologise. She shrugged it off. That could wait until later. Right now, she had a letter to read. And it was most likely important.

She sat down at her chair again, and placed the letter at the table, ready to read. She let her eyes wander over the first lines. Wow, she couldn't believe what she was reading! She had a concert alone at some school in California. It was Seaview Middle School. She didn't know it, but Hannah wasn't going to be there, it would just be Libby Lee.

She continued to read the long letter, about dates and all those other arrangements, when she suddenly jumped up, because of a voice:

"What are you reading!?"

"Oh shit!" Sharpay screamed, turning around to look at Ryan, "God Ry! Don't ever do that again, you scared the hell out of me!" she placed a hand on her heart, not noticing Ryan's eyes slowly wandering towards her letter.

"What's that about?" he asked, tempting to pick it up.

Sharpay followed his gaze, and quickly grabbed the letter, before he had the chance to do so. She moved away from him, "Nothing. It's nothing."

Ryan held his hand out, demanding the letter from her, "Show me, Sharpay. What is it!?"

"No!"

"Yes!"

"No!"

"Yes!"

"No!" Sharpay stood her ground. She quickly crumbled the paper between her fingers and stuffed it into her mouth, "There, I was just getting hungry."

Ryan looked at her like she was crazy.

"What?" she asked, "It's a delicacy in India."

Ryan shot her a weird look, "Okay, Sharpay. Could you act weirder, please?". Then he grabbed an apple from the bowl on the table and hurried out of the kitchen.

Sharpay quickly took the crumbled letter out of her mouth, and started to unfold it again, hoping she hadn't ruined it too much, with her salvia. "Oh no!" she exclaimed, when she saw the damage, "Oh, mo-om!" she stomped out of the kitchen and towards the living room where her mother was seated; "Please tell me you got a letter too!?"

--

Sharpay drummed her fingers against the table, patiently biting her lip. Hannah always took forever to answer her phone, it was getting quite annoying. Sharpay hated to wait, she didn't have time for that. A melody had been on her mind since she talked to Troy in school, and she couldn't wait to sit down by her piano and put words on it, before she had to leave for her visit with Raven.

Finally something seemed to happen:

"Hey, it's Hannah." Hannah's voice whispered.

Sharpay frowned. Why did she whisper…? That was weird. Sharpay cleared her throat, changing her personality to Libby Lee. After all, that was what actresses did. "Hey Hannah. It's Libby."

"Oh Libby!" Hannah seemed to be happy and surprised, "How did you get home Sunday morning? Long trip?"

"Yeah, y'know how it feels…" Sharpay let out a chuckle, "Anyway… I just called because… Well, I got this letter. I'm going to sing at a school in California, somewhere called Seaview Middle School or something. But I'm gonna be there alone, and… I really hate staying at hotels when you aren't there. And I know you live around there, so do you think I can stay with you?"

Sharpay waited for Hannah to answer her question, but nothing happened. "Hannah?" she questioned. "Hello…! Hannah!?" she took the phone away from her ear to check the connection was still there, and it was. This was weird, "Hannah?" she tried again, "Hello best friend, what's happening? HANNAH!?"

"…yes?" Hannah whispered, swallowing hard.

"What happened?"

"I… I dropped the phone." Hannah said, "Seaview Middle School, you say?"

"Yeah…" Sharpay laughed, twisting her blonde hair around her index finger, "I don't know why you aren't going with me. Do you want me to turn them down, and say I only do shows with you?"

"Oh no!" Hannah quickly said, "No, no, no, no! That's silly, Libby!" she laughed, "I don't have a problem with you doing the show. I'm just surprised, because… well, I know that school." (A/N – If you haven't figured that much, Seaview Middle School is the school that Miley Stewart goes to, k?)

"Really? Is it cool?"

"Haha, it's okay…" Hannah said, "Jake Ryan goes there."

"Really? Cool… Anyway…" Sharpay trailed off, "Can I stay with you?"

"I don't know if that's a very good idea…" Hannah trailed off, "I mean… Hotels are so much fun! Remember when we were in New York, how we jumped on the bed? You can't do that in a regular house."

"Uhm no…" Sharpay said, not understanding why that was such a big deal, "But it aren't fun without you anyways. Can I please?"

"But Libby…" Hannah begun again, "You don't want to stay with me! My brother is gonna annoy the hell out of you, along with Lola! C'mon, you're gonna get tired, it's three days or something, right?"

"Lola is my friend too!" Sharpay objected, "Of course I wont get tired of her! Please, Hannah?"

Hannah let out a deep sigh, "Okay, Libs… You can stay with me. I'll just have to talk to my dad, okay? When is it anyway?"

"I'll be arriving on Friday. My other show got cancelled, and this was back-up."

"Fine, we'll pick you up in the airport to make sure everything goes smooth." Hannah said, "And I'll show you around town. We'll just disguise ourselves." She paused, "Should be easy."

"Yeah!" Sharpay laughed, thinking how she could just take off her wig or something, "Should be."

"I'll call you later then."

"Fine, but do it tomorrow." Sharpay told her, "I have a meeting with Raven."

"'Kay then. Say hi to her from me."

"Shall do. Bye."

"Bye."

Sharpay hung up her phone, wondering what was going through Hannah's mind. How come she didn't want her to stay with her? Had she done something to offend her? Sharpay couldn't think of anything, it was really weird. She decided to let the thought slip for now, and go pack her stuff. She'd have to bring her guitar for the trip, because she had that song to write. And she didn't have time to do it on the piano before she left.

Sighing, she quickly got up, to go packing.

--

"Hey girlfriend!" Raven squealed, the minute she stepped into the Chill Grill, the door smacking close behind her.

"Hi!" Sharpay smiled, placing her guitar and bag on the floor beside her, before being enveloped in a big hug by Raven, "How's everything going? Much changed since yesterday?"

"No much!" Raven smiled, picking up her Luis Vuitton bag, "Listen, Shar…" she waved her towards the little stage, "My dad went a little crazy with the preparations for your show. He's made human size boards with you on, placing them around the city… and my school too."

"No!" Sharpay laughed. That was so typical Mr. Baxter. And Raven always got embarrassed. Funny thing was, she didn't realize that she was exactly like that herself too. "Then I better give him a good show, right? When is this place opening?"

"At 6 o'clock." Raven told her, "There's still an hour. Chelsea and Eddie will be here soon."

"Yay!" Sharpay laughed, clapping her hands together in delight, "Can I say hi to your dad?"

"He's in the back." Raven said, "Just talk to him, I'll put these things into your ´dressing room´." She used air quotes. Then she laughed and got Sharpay's things together.

Sharpay looked around and quickly took off into the kitchen, where Mr. and Mrs. Baxter were both getting everything ready, "Hi you two!" Sharpay said, casually crooking an eyebrow.

"Sharpay!" Mrs. Baxter exclaimed, quickly enveloping her in a hug, "Nice to see you. We didn't get to chat yesterday!"

"No!" Sharpay laughed, "I was in a hurry. How are you? You too, Mr. Baxter?"

"We're great." Mr. Baxter smiled, "Couldn't be better. Please tell me you remembered your wig?"

"Of course I did." Sharpay said, "I wouldn't let you down, now would I? Didn't think so."

The three of them shared a laugh, and Sharpay excused herself, because she thought she heard Chelsea's voice outside. She went out there, and wasn't surprised to find Raven, Eddie and Chelsea in a discussion. "Hi guys!"

"Shar!" Eddie said, "How are you doing, man?"

"Good!" Sharpay laughed, "Hi, Chels? How are you?"

"I'm okay…" Chelsea said, looking serious.

"Oh my God!" Sharpay said, placing a hand on her chest, "What happened, Chels?"

"I got attacked by my mother's clothes-dryer!" Chelsea said, looking deeply hurt, in her own Chelsea-way. (A/N – and you may ask, how can that happen? Believe me! It can! It happened to me (Stessa) and it wasn't fun at all. Though it was kinda planned by my dear co-writer and our other friend, but still! I did get attacked)

"How can that happen?" Raven asked, placing a hand on her hip.

"I was hanging up clothes." Chelsea said, "And suddenly everything got mixed up, and yeah… Then I was under the clothes-dryer and I couldn't get out again."

Sharpay couldn't help but laugh, "That sounds horrible, Chels! Come on, let's sit down and talk before I have to change!"

The four of them sat down by one of the tables, and got a soda from Mr. Baxter. They started chatting about this and that, and eventually, Sharpay told them about her problem with the concert at East High.

"…and really," Sharpay said, "I have no idea what to do. I don't want to let my friends at school or Hannah down, but how can I be two places at once?"

"Yeah, that's tricky." Chelsea mumbled, "But think about being three places at once, that's even trickier!"

Sharpay and Raven both shot her a look, but then turned to each other.

"Maybe I should just turn the offer down!" Sharpay wondered, "But no… I'd feel bad."

"Look at the bright side…" Raven said, smiling at her. She paused, trying to find one. When she failed to think of it, she shot Sharpay a smile in stead of, "Oh no, there are no a bright side…"

"Anyway," Eddie said, "You'll do great tonight. Just you and your guitar."

"Yeah," Sharpay smiled, "I wrote a new song today."

"Oh, can you please sing it!?" Raven asked.

"I don't know, I'd have to talk to my manager, and…" Sharpay trailed off, looking at Raven's begging eyes, "I guess so."

"Oh my God, you could do that!?" Raven exclaimed, "Thank you!"

"You're welcome." Sharpay laughed.

"What's the song about anyway?" Eddie asked,

"Oh, just this guy I like." Sharpay said, "Therefore; love."

"Why is all songs about love?" Chelsea muttered, "I mean… Why don't they, like… write a song about tents or food… or, oh! I know! Whales! Why don't anyone write a song about whales!? They're really cool animals."

"Chelsea…" Eddie said, "Nobody will listen to a song about whales."

"I'll write a song about whales, Chels." Sharpay said, "For my new album, and I'll even dedicate it to you!"

"Really?" Chelsea questioned, "Thank you, Sharpay."

Sharpay smiled and leaned in to hug her.

"But guess what?" Raven said, needing to get the attention back at herself, "We talked to Alana today. She told me she didn't believe that we knew you and… that you were singing here, because you're a close friend of mine."

"Oh what happened…?"

"I'll tell you…"

Raven, Chelsea and Eddie were just standing beside Chelsea's locker, chatting, when Alana, Muffy, and Loca approached them, already scaring the shit out of them.

"Alana says she doesn't believe you know Libby Lee." Muffy said, in her annoying little voice.

"Well, well," Raven said, trying to sound harsh, "Maybe she doesn't believe it, but that doesn't mean it's not true."

"Yeah!" Eddie said, taking a step towards them, to show who was the man.

"Back off!" Loca said, her height pretty intimidating.

Eddie swallowed a quickly took a step back again, "Yes, sir."

"Look," Alana said, "There's no way you can be friends with Libby Lee. Why would she be friends with three dorks like you?"

"But we are!" Chelsea, "Why don't you come to the Chill Grill tonight and see for yourself. Libby is singing there as a favour for Raven's father. She actually loves us."

"Yeah, yeah," Alana mimicked, sarcasm streaming through her voice; "And the other weekend I was partying with Hannah Montana!"

"Oh my God, so were we!" Chelsea squealed, a huge smile on her face, remembering that awesome night.

"Shut up, Chels." Eddie said, pulling her backwards, away from the conversation.

"Look…" Raven begun again, "Do you really believe that my father would tell so many people about Libby Lee coming, if it wasn't true?"

"Alana says she still doesn't believe you." Muffy said.

"I was with her yesterday." Raven said, "I'm the one making practically all her dresses, we had a meeting."

"Like I said before…" Alana said, "And yesterday I was having lunch with the Queen of England."

"Oh my God!" Chelsea exclaimed, butting into the conversation again, "That's so cool! Is she nice?"

"Chels…" Raven said, shooting her a look, "She doesn't know her."

Chelsea rolled her eyes, "Then why did she have lunch with her, Rae? You really gotta keep up."

Once again, Eddie pulled Chelsea back by her bag pack and away from the conversation.

"And Alana says…" Muffy paused, "Drop it."

"There's no way, Libby Lee is really coming." Loca finished.

"There is a way," Raven begun, "Because she is coming. Be there around 6 o'clock, and you'll see yourself, okay? I really hate to spell it out for you, but I doesn't seem like you understand, so I really have to." She paused, repeating the time, in each syllable, "6 – o – ' clock!"

"Fine," Alana said, flipping her hair over her shoulder, "But Libby Lee better be there…"

"… and then she marched away!" Raven finished, tearing up, "I hope she really does come tonight, I have to prove her I'm cool."

"We'll see," Sharpay smiled, "But it doesn't matter anyway, Raven. It doesn't matter what they think. I'm just an ordinary girl, and I love you people."

"We love you too." Raven said.

"Yeah," Eddie said, padding his chest, "In here."

They turned to Chelsea, expecting her to say something, but the only thing she was focused on, was something with her eyes.

"Guys… guys…" she said, sounding really proud, "Guys, I got chocolate in my eye!"

Sharpay looked at her, confusion streaming through her head, "Chels! How does anyone get chocolate in their eye!? That's an achievement, even for you!"

--

"And we're proud to present, for the first time here at the Chill Grill… Libby Lee!" Mrs. Baxter smiled, applauding as Libby went onto the stage, guitar in one hand, "Thank you so much for coming tonight, Libby."

"You're welcome, Mrs. Baxter." Libby said, "You know I'd do anything for you guys."

Mrs. Baxter smiled, gave her a quick hug and went down from the stage. Libby fixed the microphone, and got her guitar ready, "As an opening song, I promised my close friends…" she emphasised on the words ´close´, "…Raven, Chelsea and Eddie..."

"That's us!" Raven squealed, looking at Alana, Loca and Muffy, who was sitting close by, "Did you hear that? We're close friends!"

Libby laughed, "...that I'd start with one of my new songs. It's called ´Totally in Love with You´, and it's dedicated to a very special person." She paused, "You can probably figure out who."

She played the first few notes on her guitar, and softly began to sing:

"Looking into your crystal blue eyes
Seeing everything I need
Can tell you're hooked
But not on me

Take your love
Mix and add it
To mine
I love you with my soul

Baby, I'm out of control
You've taken over my mind
All I see is you, honey
I'm totally loving you."

She played a few notes again, shortly locking eyes with Raven. She had a huge smile on her face, and that made Libby happy. She knew nothing better than to see the people she loved in the audience. She knew she made them proud every time she went on stage, and she couldn't help but like it, when she got that feeling. It was one of the reasons she loved singing and acting so much.

"You are in love with my other half
Can't you see through her
And into me – inside
I love you, need you, want all of you!

Take your love
Mix and add it
To mine
I love you with my soul

Baby, I'm out of control
You've taken over my mind
All I see is you, honey
I'm totally loving you."

She winked at a few boys in the audience, imagining that one of them was the boy she was singing for. She hadn't really wanted this song to be one of Libby's. She'd wanted it to be one of Sharpay Evans'. Because when Libby sang it, people would assume it was for Jesse, but it wasn't. If they listened carefully, they would realize it anyway.

It was for Troy, but they didn't know him. And even though she hadn't intended to sing this as Libby Lee, she couldn't get herself to shoot Raven down when she asked. It was that thing she had about pleasing people. It was really horrible to feel like that, sometimes. She couldn't stand to see someone get hurt.

"I'm all yours, why do you reject me?
Standing beside you, but all you talk about
Is her, my other half
Maybe I should tell you?

Take your love
Mix and add it
To mine
I love you with my soul

Baby, I'm out of control
You've taken over my mind
All I see is you, honey
I'm totally loving you

Am going crazy for making love to you
Flirting, trying so hard to get you with me
Why do you see through me?"

She shot Cory a smile, and he waved at her, a smile on his face too. He was eating French fries with lot of ketchup. It really was a Chill Grill, because everyone were so relaxed.

"Take your love
Mix and add it
To mine
I love you with my soul
Baby, I'm out of control

You've taken over my mind (my mind)
All I see is you, honey (you)
I'm totally loving you
Totally loving you
Totally loving you
Totally loving you
Totally loving you."

She finished by holding the last ´you´, and people stood up and applauded her. She laughed, with a smile on her face, "Thank you very much!" she said, "And thank you for letting me sing here, Mr. Baxter, I'm so honoured. Your Chill Grill rocks!"

"Thank you, Libby." Mr. Baxter smiled.

"Okay then…" Libby trailed off, "The next song I'd like to sing, is one of my regulars. I think you all know ´Unlove You´. Here we go…"

--

Sharpay slipped out from the back, unnoticed. She took a seat on the spare chair, by her friends' table.

"Uh!" Raven squealed, "That was so great, Shar!"

"Thank you!" Sharpay whispered, keeping her voice low, "I'm glad you liked it."

"Yeah, it was great," Chelsea said, "But excuse me, I have to go to the bathroom." She quickly stood up, and left for the ladies room.

"It has been really awesome tonight, Rae," Sharpay said, "But I've really got to catch my plane home. I've got school tomorrow, and it's a long flight."

"Yeah, of course." Raven smiled, "Be back soon, though."

"We'll miss you." Eddie said.

"I'll go out the back, okay?" Sharpay questioned, "If I walk through the restaurant with a guitar, it'll look suspicious."

"Yeah, and remember to say goodbye to my parents and Cory."

"Shall do." Sharpay smiled. She hugged them both, and went into the kitchen to say goodbye to the rest of the Baxter family.

Jus then, Chelsea came out of the ladies room again. She quickly sat back in her chair, looking weird at her two friends, "Hey, were did Sharpay go?"

Raven pointed at one of the human size boards of Libby Lee, "She didn't leave. She's right there, Chels." She joked.

"Oh my God," Chelsea said, looking closely at it, "I can't believe she's that thin!"


Okay then! Haha, this was fun to write, I really love Chelsea, she's so hilarious. Please remember to leave us a review, and tell us what you think. And also, if anyone has an idea for a good summary, please tell us too, because we don't know what to write, and we don't like the one we have right now. Hope to hear from you guys, k?

Tootles, MelleG and Stessa.

Peace out!
