Hey guys, I hope you enjoy this chapter after a five day wait. I had to go on vacation but now I'm back with everyday updates that may be one or two a day…enjoy this one and PLEASE REVIEW.

Sharpay pulled Gabriella through the double auditorium doors and led her onto the stage. A thick wooden house sat in the middle covered in painted green vines. The door was missing and the roof was leaning half way off the thing.

"Sharpay, stop….pulling me," Gabriella called out as the blonde released the girl from her grip and ran onto the stage. The first bell of the day rung and Gabriella sighed, another tardy slip would be sent to her and her mother, that makes fifteen this month. Sharpay disappeared behind the thick red curtain as Gabriella slid into the closet seat next to her. The plush velvet rubbed up against her skin leaving a smooth to the touch feeling on her palm. The auditorium was dimly lit, and the smell of fresh paint lingered in the air as a loud banging noise bounced off the walls. The brunette stood and ran onto the stage in search of the blonde.

"Sharpay?" the girl called out, moving a few inches at a time as Ms. Darbus poked around the corner.

"Miss Montez, a little off schedule today don't you think?"

"Umm, yeah but I was just…"

"Heading to class, go along"

"No, Sharpay," Gabriella pointed towards the backroom but the woman wasn't asking her she was telling her. She shuffled over to the brunette and placed her hands on the girl's shoulders leading her to the stage door.

"To class miss Montez," she said before walking away. The hall was quiet and brightly lit. Red lockers covered almost ever inch and classroom doors were tightly shut. Gabriella grabbed her backpack strap before talking a deep breath and walking towards the stairs. She climbed them one at a time, hoping that Sharpay would notice she was gone and save her from her first class of the day, but she didn't have such luck. She carried herself to her room and starred into the window. Mr. Brown was speaking on something she knew was too easy, which lead her to drift off at times. She took a deep breath and tugged on the door but it was locked. Mr. Brown turned to her and so did most of the class. He pointed at the class to keep quiet and copy the notes from the board before walking over to the girl.

He slightly cracked the door and starred into Gabriella's eyes.

"Do you know how many times you have missed my lecture this month young lady?" he asked as Gabriella nodded. She lowered her eyes as her heart began to speed up and Mr. Brown lifted a paper towards. "Gabriella I have to make an example out of you, this is a sheet of paper that you'll carry down the hall to room two fifteen, there you will spend my class for three days, and I know you're a great student but….detention seems to be your calling right now, whatever the problem is…at home, here at school…with a boyfriend, just remember you can talk to the teachers that's what we're here for." He closed the door and left Gabriella with tears forming in her eyes.

Suck it in Montez. Gabriella told herself as she walked towards the only room in the school she'd never thought she'd end up. Her eyes were blurry as the hall seemed to close around her. She could barley think but once she made it to the room the door was wide open greeting her with poisonous arms. She walked into the room and handed her slip over to a man sitting at the desk. His eyes looked up at her and then down before he took one last glance at the brunette and pointed to a chair.

"Take a seat, no talking, do your work if any is given, and…..I should see you before eight everyday of detention, is that clear?" the man asked as Gabriella nodded and walked away. She took her seat next to a boy who's head was pressed hard against his desk, drool flowed from his lips and ran across his face. His hair was matted atop his head as Gabriella turned her head to get a better look.

"Jason?" she whispered as he starred at her. "Jason Cross? Why are you in here?"

"Oh, ummm, first hour is always the hardest, fall to sleep a lot, I'll have a lot of cramming to do at the end of the year but right now I don't have….wait why are you in here? Miss goody goody?"

"I've been late to class a few times this week…and the weeks before that and well I don't know, my mom is going to kill me," Gabriella looked down at her desk and back up at Jason. "So how long are you in here for?"

"Well, lets see just this class and sixth and seventh, I get a little tired after lunch you know?" Jason asked as Gabriella laughed and sat back in her seat.

………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Ms. Darbus paced around the room before taking her couch like seat at the front of the class. Students piled into the room one by one until it was almost full. Sharpay ran her fingers along the papers in her locker as someone wrapped their arms around her waist from behind. The blonde turned around already smiling knowing that only Gabriella could send shivers up her spine and make her skin tingle and warm up. The brunette pulled back as Sharpay turned around.

"Where did you go earlier?" the blonde asked lacing one hand on her hip and letting the other fall to her side.

"Well Darbus told me to get to class and so I did, and guess what?" Gabriella raised her eyebrow at the girl and waited but Sharpay shook her head and shrugged her shoulders.

"I've got first hour detention for three days, awesome right?" she said quietly as she walked up to the blonde and wrapped her arms back around her waist. She lowered her head onto the girl's shoulder and took in the scent of strawberries and vanilla.

"Is this my fault?"

"Oh no Shar, its totally mine, I always wanted to get to class a little later than everyone else"

"Gabby I'm sorry really"

"Yeah, that's what you say"

"I'm serious," Sharpay pulls back and stares into the girl's chocolate eyes. "Let me make it up to you"

"I would but you see when the school calls my mom, I'll be dead," Gabriella pulled back as the bell rung. "Time for division"

"But"

"Come on," Gabriella tugs on Sharpay's sleeve as the girl slams her locker door shut and follows the girl. The arrive at the class just before the final bell sounds.

"Miss Montez….Miss Evans, caught by the bell again I see, habits are hard to break but they must be done," the woman said as both girls made it to their seats. Sharpay was on the right of Gabriella near the back of the class. Their desks were barley pushed apart but today someone else sat in Gabriella's seat. A short blonde girl, who's eyes were hard on the paper below her.

"That's my seat," the brunette said as the girl looked up. She was the same one from the restaurant yesterday. The girl ignored the brunette as her eyes stayed glued onto Sharpay.

"Um I don't know if you've heard her or not but that's her desk"

"Oh sorry, my bad," the girl said walking toward the front of the class where Troy sat. He mouthed something at Gabriella but she was too busy starring at Sharpay. The blonde was also surprised by the weird girl still eyeing her from the from of the room.

"How cute, she's so into you," Gabriella joked as Sharpay starred at the blonde.

"She's creepy"

"Really? But I thought you liked girls looking at you"

"Only one"

"This is school not sex one-o-one," Ryan turned to face his sister. He sat in front of her and he was turning a bit red from laughing about the blonde.

"Aw Ry, you know you like me talking about this stuff"

"Oh yeah, like I don't know how all this stuff works"

"What stuff?"

"Sex"

"What? Where did that come from?"

"Well that girl is so into you…cheating is not allowed….oh lets talk about this when your girlfriend isn't sitting right there.

"Yes lets," Gabriella said as Sharpay rolled her eyes and pulled Ryan's head closer towards her.

"Block her view, she just might be undressing me with her eyes"

"Really?" Ryan said turning around but the girl was already starring away from them.

"She must have realized that she was starring too long and creped someone out"

"I just think Gabriella has found some competition, what are you going to do about it?"

"Nothing," the brunette said as the bell rung and she stood cupping her backpack strap.

"You don't really think I'd…"

"No Shar, its just I really should get to this class early, mom texted me," Gabriella raised her phone up to the blonde and pressed the okay button. It read, " Gabby wee have to talk, and don't bring company home, and I know you'll tell me Sharpay isn't company but to me she is, no one but you."

Gabriella pulled her phone back to her and leaned into Sharpay's cheek before kissing it and walking away into the hall.

"See look what you did," Ryan lifted his books into his arm.

"Oh shut up Ryan," Sharpay called out as she walked out the door.
