Christmas Surprises.

Last Time:

Sure enough, about 5 minutes later Sharpay came walking over to the tree. And a few minutes after that, so did Ryan. Then they were off out the door.

After they were safely out the door in to the snow storm, again, Chad came walking out, looking for Gabi and Troy. They walked out of the isle and Chad began to explain his story. "Kay… So I was walking and collided with someone… and that was Sharpay… so we talked for a while and I –"
"You didn't tell her did you?" Gabriella butted in.

"No! She thinks that I'm here visiting my Grandparents who sent me in to town for tea and I got distracted!" Chad said.

"So she doesn't know about us being here?" Troy asked.

"Nope…" Chad said, pausing, "Oh! But I did get her phone number! I'm supposed to call her later for her address."

"That's a start…" Troy said, pushing open the door as they walked outside.

"Are we still following them?" Gabriella asked, following Troy down the sidewalk. Chad was right beside her.

"Let's not…" Chad muttered, "I mean she said to call and she'd give me the address…"
"Good point. Let's head back to the hotel and warm up" Gabi said and Troy nodded. Then the three-some walked off down the street in the opposite way of Ryan and Sharpay. Prepared to kick back and relax.

Chapter 4

Sharpay & Ryan

Sharpay and Ryan had left the Toy store about 5 minutes ago and neither had said anything since. They were both enjoying the cold, snowy, weather as they walked back toward their house (There parents had bought it for them when they got enrolled at NYU). Finally, though, Sharpay said something, "I seen Danforth—I mean Chad, at the Toy store…"

"Really?" Ryan asked, surprised that Chad was in New York City, "Why was he here?"
"Grandparents. He came to visit them for the holidays…" Sharpay replied, pausing, "But you know what the weird thing was?"
"What?"
"When I asked him why he was here… he stuttered… it took him awhile to reply…" Sharpay said.

"That's kind of odd…" Ryan said. "Wait… I thought back in High School he said his grandparents lived with him?"
Sharpay nodded, "My point exactly… It's like he didn't want me to know the whole story…" Ryan nodded, "And then after I left… I heard him call someone on his cell telling them something about 'Not wanting to ruin the surprise'…."

"That's odd…" Ryan said. He had to agree, what wasn't there to agree to?

"I know…" Sharpay nodded, "But he's supposed to call later…" They turned the corner and walked down the street a bit further before reaching their house. There were a few lights in side signaling that Kelsei was home.

"Well… Invite him over or something…" Ryan suggested, before sticking his key in the key whole and pushing the door open. Music from their piano inside came drifting out the door. It was Kelsei's new composition.

"That'd make it obvious though…" Sharpay muttered, stepping toward the door.

"We'll talk later…" Ryan said as the two walked in the door, taking off their coats and shoes and putting them in the hallway closet. Then they walked toward the music room (Or sitting room, whichever you want to call it) where the piano was. Sharpay sat down on the couch next to her cream colored Maltipoo, Blondie. Blondie was asleep on the couch and didn't notice Sharpay sit down so Sharpay scooped up her dog, sitting her on her lap and began to pet her as she listened to Kelsei play. They weren't really sure if Kelsei had heard them come in.

Ryan on the other hand, sat down on an armchair next to the couch, picking up one of the many magazines sitting on the table next to him. 'Kels sounds really good!' He thought as he flipped through the magazine, paying more attention to Kelsei then to it.

After a moment or two Kelsei's song ended and she closed the piano lid, standing up. She slowly turned around and then noticed Sharpay and Ryan. "Guys, you're home!" She said with a smile. The twins couldn't tell rather it was a surprised, happy, or relived expression.

"Hey Kels!" Ryan smiled throwing the magazine down on the table and stood up, giving Kelsei a hug.

Sharpay also stood up, smiling at the girl as she walked over, still holding Blondie. Blondie was now awake, though. "Hey Kelsei! Nice song!" Ryan nodded, as if to agree as Sharpay gave Kelsei a small hug.

"Thanks!" Kelsei said, still smiling as she gave Blondie a pat on the head, "How'd your trip to town go?"
"Good!" Ryan and Sharpay said in unison, "Infact we even seen Chad there!" Sharpay added.

"Chad? As in Chad Danforth?" Kelsei asked, Sharpay nodded. 'Wow, who would've thought that Chad was here?' Kelsei added in her mind. "Wow!"

"I know, but there was something fishy about it…. Like there was something he was hiding…" Sharpay said, as Blondie barked as if to agree.

"Well… Maybe you should investigate?" Kelsei suggested, walking towards the kitchen, the twins followed.

Sharpay nodded, "I'll do it after dinner…" She sat Blondie down on the kitchen floor, "By the way… What is for dinner?"
Ryan and Kelsei laughed a bit, "It's your turn to cook, Sharpay!" Kelsei said, smiling.

"It is?" Sharpay asked, without giving them time to answer, "Oh yeah… Thursdays are my nights to cook…" Kelsei and Ryan laughed again.

"Don't worry Shar, I'll just order Pizza" Ryan said, grabbing the phone off the hook and a phone book.

"Thanks Ry! Call me when it gets here!" Sharpay smiled then ran off up stairs to her bed room, Blondie followed her and Kelsei smiled, going back to the music room. Ryan just smiled, dialing the number for the pizza place.

Chad, Gabs & Troy

"Are we there yet?" Chad asked yet again. He was either to lazy to see for himself that they were indeed at the hotel and almost to the elevator or he just liked asking the question.

"Yes Chad. Now quit asking that stupid question…." Troy replied as they reached the elevator and the trio got in. Gabi pushed the buttons for their floor then the doors closed taking them to their floor.

"Someone's a little cranky!" Chad muttered, leaning against the wall as he waited for the elevator to stop. Troy just glared as the doors opened and Gabriella hurried out, followed by Chad then himself.

They walked to their apartment and Troy unlocked it. "Finally!" Chad exclaimed, plopping down on to the couch after pushing past Troy. Gabriella rolled her eyes as she headed towards the small kitchen. "Gabs, call room service! I'm starving!" Chad whined.

Troy rolled his eyes this time as he sat down on an armchair and turned the TV on, going threw the Channels, "Why don't you do it Chad?"
"Because I gotta…. Gotta…" Chad thought for a second, "Call Sharpay!" he nodded as if to confirm that then got up, running off to his and Troy's bedroom.

"Weird?" Gabi muttered after Chad left, Troy nodded.

"Totally."

Gabi smiled, "Well… I guess I'll call room service then…"

"Thanks Gabs" Troy said, Gabriella simply nodded then grabbed the phone, walking out of the room. Troy sighed, 'This is Going to be a long evening!'
