A/N: I was planning on having this chapter longer (it's not even 1,000 words! :( ), but I decided to let you guys think about David before I went more into the plot with him. So this is my "official" introduction of David "The New Guy" at East High. (Hey that rhymes :D. Guy. High. lol)
Unfortunately there's no Troy/Gabi in this chapter, but don't worry, there will be plenty of them in upcoming chapters :).
Getting Him Back
Chapter 6: The New Guy
No One's P.O.V
On Tuesday morning, 5 minutes before the school bell rang, a new student came to East High. By lunch, everyone was talking about "The New Guy".
"He's cute".
"I heard he used to go to military school, but he was kicked out".
"I bet he's going to try out for the basketball team".
"Where has this guy been all my life? He is so hot!"
"I heard he moved here from Forks, Washington". (A/N: Maybe he's Edward Cullen :P)
"I can't believe that guy we saw at the mall yesterday is the new student!", Sharpay squealed as she sat at her usual table at lunch. The table included herself, Allie and the rest of the cheerleading team, and some people from the Drama Club (including Ryan). Sometimes Allie sat with Troy, Chad, Taylor and Gabriella, but not very often.
"Does anyone know what his name is?", Allie asked.
"David Croft", a cheerleader said. "He was in homeroom with me".
"I think this is fate", Sharpay said dreamily. "I saw him yesterday while guy hunting and now he's the new student at my school! How awesome is this?". Mostly everyone nodded while smiling in agreement. Allie just rolled her eyes.
"Maybe you should get to know him first, Sharpay", Allie suggested. "I heard he's bad news".
"Oooh, a bad boy. I like him even more", Sharpay said.
"Is that him, with the basketball team?", Ryan asked.
Sharpay turned her head at the basketball team, and sure enough, there was her future boyfriend.
"Why is he with the basketball team?", a member of the Drama Club asked, clueless.
"Maybe he's thinking about trying out?", Allie suggested.
"He looks more like a football player to me", a cheerleader said. The rest of the cheerleaders smiled widely in agreement.
David's P.O.V
My first week at East High was…very welcoming. During Gym on Wednesday, Coach Bolton noticed my awesome basketball skills and told me I should tryout for next year's basketball team. That, was no surprise for me. After all, I had been to 3 different high schools in the past 2 years and was on every basketball team. I had even been on one of the football teams last year. (Brianna, a hot redheaded cheerleader thought that was really cool).
What surprised me, was how many girls liked me at East High. I certainly wasn't used to this. At my other schools, most of the girls were already drooling on the football players, so I wasn't really noticed that much. Now I'm not saying no girls liked me at my other schools. There had always been a couple, and I even had a sort of-serious girlfriend at my first high school, but East High. Whoa. Cheerleaders, Drama Club members, math geeks, you name it. Everyone was interested in "The New Guy". Mostly it was the cheerleaders that were flirting with me, and gushing to their friends about how "incredibly hot and mysterious" I was. I kind of liked all the attention I was getting. Okay, saying I kind of liked it, was putting it vaguely. I had never gotten so much attention from girls in my life. I loved it!
But I could have done without all the attention I was getting from one particular girl.
Sharpay Evans.
I found out about her in homeroom. There was this girl in front of me, that kept passing notes to the girl next to her. One time she dropped her note, and I picked it up, out of boredom. I was planning on handing it back to the girl, but not before I read it.
Yeah, his name's David. David Croft. He's the same guy Shar saw at the mall. Apparently he's hers. What-E. Just because Sharpay Evans is the most popular girl in school, that doesn't mean she has automatic ownership of the hottie superbombs.
I handed the note back to the embarrassed, blushing girl and decided I would avoid this Sharpay as best as I could.
Unfortunately, Sharpay was more confident at "making me hers" than I thought. She was in quite a few of my classes, much to her liking, and flipped her hair around me flirtatiously me every chance she got. I have to admit, she was pretty attractive; tall, blonde, super confident. But she was also very stubborn (not to mention a little annoying). And by Friday, I had had enough of her.
I had my eyes set on a different girl.
Allie Summers.
Like Sharpay, she was tall, blonde and super confident. Unlike Sharpay, she was carefree, a cheerleader and unfortunately, dating the captain of the basketball team.
But even though she had a boyfriend, there was no harm in flirting with her, right?
A/N: Sooooo...what do you think of David? I personally think he's a playa lol...but I'm the author who created him :P.
Also, have any predictions on what's gonna happen with David/Sharpay/Allie??
Lots of love to my wonderful reviewers (hint hint :P),
