(Sharpays House)

"Sharpay gurry up! The boys are going to be here any minute" shouted Gabriella who was fixing

her make up.

"I'll be down in a minute" Sharpay shouted downstairs to Gabriella. Seconds after the doorbell

rand. Gabriella went and opened the door and saw Chad beaming at her.

"Look what I found!" he said pointing to his t-shirt. He was wearing a white t-shirt with a tuxedo

printed on the front. Gabriella laughed knowing how Taylor was going to react. She turned around

and walked back inside the house, the boys followed. Troy came up behind her and put his

hands over her eyes.

"Guess who" he teased.

"Oh is it that cute pizza guy from earlier?" she teased back. She turned around to face Troy and

batted her eyelashes.

"You look gorgeous! Extremely hot!" said Troy who leaned in and began to kiss Gabriella forgetting

that all the gang were around them.

"Aww that's too cute" sighed Kelsi.

"Ugh get a room" teased Sharpay coming down the stairs. Gabriella and Troy laughed and blushed

slightly.

"So are we ready?" asked Taylor.

"Yeah" everyonr answerd.

Troy and Ryan had both drove down in thier own cars so the whole gang would be able to fit in.

Troy, Gabriella, Chad and Taylor went in Troys car, and Ryan, Jason, Kelsi and Sharpay went in

Ryans.

(At the dance)

The gang all entered Easthigh gym which had been transformed into a beautifully decorated dance

hall. Sharpay and Ryan walked towards their dates and left the rest of the gang standing at the side

of the gym. The principal could be heard slightly giving the usual speech.

"Welcome to the Easthigh spring dance. There is to be no underage drinking or smoking. No fooling

around and no inappropriate dancing. At the end of the dance the King and Queen will be announced"

The principal finished his speech and music began to play. The girls walked onto the dancefloor and

began to dance whilst the boys stood in a huddle talking.

"Dude you and Gabby are going to win King and Queen" said Chad

"Nah I don't think so, Gabby should though" replied Troy.

"Wouldn't you mind if Gabby won with someone else?" asked Jason.

"Well yeah, but i'd be happy for her though" answerd Troy. Troy glanced over at the dancefloor and

saw Gabriella dancing with Sharpay, Kelsi and Taylor. He couldn't help thinking how hot she looked.

He felt so lucky to be dating her. The music turned into slow songs and most of the people on the

dancefloor walked off. Gabriella came walking back towards an Troy and tapped him on the shoulder.

"Ahh Miss Montez so you decided to join me" flirted Troy.

"Well only because I was left on my own" laughed Gabriella. Troy smiled and kissed her on the cheek.

My Endless Love by Lionel Richie and Diana Ross began to play.

"May I have this dance?" asked Troy holding out his hand.

"Of course." replied Gabriella placing her hand on top of Troys and walked to the dancefloor.

Gabriella stood facing Troy and smiled. Troy placed his hands around Gabriellas tiny waist and Gabriella

placed her arms around Troys neck. After a while of dancing Gabriella moved in closer towards Troy who

tightend his grip around her wist and leaned her head on his shoulders.

"You know Gabby I really do love you" Troy said.

"I love you to Troy" whisperd Gabriella.

"How about we leave early and go to the beach?" suggested Troy.

"Sure" replied Gabriella.

Troy took Gabriellas hand and entwined his fingers in hers as they headed towards the door. Gabriella

was giggling at the thought of going to the beach. It was 9pm and her and Troy were dressed to

impress.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Taylor and Kelsi were stood by the refreshments table getting a drink watching everybody dancing.

"Hey isn't that Troy and Gabby heading towards the door?" asked Kelsi.

"Yeah I wonder where there going" replied Taylor. Suddenly the music stopped playing and the principals

voice could be heard coming out of the speakers.

"I hope you are all having a great time out there guys and girls. It's now time to announce the King and

Queen of tonights dance." The pupils all woooeeeed appropriately.

"And the winners are...Troy Bolton and Gabriella Montez" Everyone cheered and clapped

looking around for the couple.

"Are they still here?" asked the Principal.

"Oh well, we will have to present the with their crowns tommorow." he said.

"Tay where did Troy and Gabby go?" asked Chad.

"I'm not sure, I saw them leaving earlier though" Taylor replied.
