"Can I move in with you two?"
"Why would you wanna move in with me and Troy, Kelly?"
"Mom's going all gaga over me here, apparently having your first period is special and should be celebrated. What's to celebrate, that lower stomach is making you very, very, VERY uncomfortable!"
"Well it is something to be celebrated, you have now officially hit puberty and you're one step closer to becoming a woman"
"I'm not a woman!" Kelly yelled before clamping her hand over her mouth as realisation dawned on her.
"What's all this yelling about?" Keisha asked as she came out of the kitchen with a plate full of thumb sized sandwiches.
"You already know"
"Oh that, have you decided on a day yet?"
"How about tomorrow?"
"You know we can't tomorrow"
"Then how about they cancel the wedding, that way we can celebrate me and my fricken period"
"Why would you want to cancel the wedding?" Taylor asked completely baffled.
"I just got you as a sister and then stupid Troy comes and takes you away"
"Just because I'm getting married to Troy doesn't mean I won't be your sister anymore, we'll still have sleepovers and girl talk plus now we can send Troy out to buy us more ice-cream"
"Well that is one brownie point to Troy, I guess having him around won't be so bad"
"Finally she sees the light!" Taylor exclaimed throwing her arms in the air.
"I still don't like him though, no offence Mrs. Bolton"
"None taken"
"What do you all think the guy's are doing right now?" Sharpay asked from her spot on the floor.
"Probably getting drunk while having strippers give them a lap dance" Kelly said stuffing her face full with sandwiches.
"Kelly!? Where did you get that idea?"
"If you watch movies involving a wedding and bachelor and bachelorette party you would know that all the men go to a strip club and get drunk and make mistakes that they don't tell their girlfriends about"
"I know my son he wouldn't even glance at a stripper" Mrs. Bolton said not believing that her only son would look at a stripper or that her husband would even consider letting their son's bachelor party turn out in such a way.
"I'm not saying that he would I'm just saying that's what they do in the movies and the girls have a male stripper. So when is he getting here?"
"Who?"
"The stripper!"
"Kelly!"
"What? It's not like I wanna see a grown man strip I just wanna know when he's getting here so that I can leave before he starts with his business"
"Good, but there's not gonna be a stripper"
-----
"Zeke, what are you doing here?"
"I was in the neighbourhood and thought I'd stop by to see what you were all doing"
"We're having a bachelorette party you know that, now tell me why are you really here?"
"We knew that Sharpay was helping Gabi plan the party and we all know Shar can be pretty wild. Troy's just worried that there was a naked man here or something like that"
"Well don't worry there hasn't been a naked man around here and there won't be one later on either, now if you'd be so nice as to leave that would be great' Zeke nodded and turned to leave 'and tell my husband that if he let's any of you boy's as much as look at a stripper I'll kill him" Mrs. Bolton said.
"Yes ma'm" Zeke said before running all the way to the Bolton's.
"Was anyone naked?"
"No, no one was naked"
"Good, now can we get back to the game?" Chad asked annoyed.
"Oh and coach I was supposed to tell you that if you let anyone of us here as much as look at a stripper your dead" Coach gulped.
"Well then it's a good thing I couldn't find a stripper. I almost even asked Sharpay if she would do it"
"Dude, that's my sister!"
"I know I'm dating her" Chad said giving Ryan a look that meant 'I know that you stupid'.
"Don't give me that look, she's my sister and I definitely don't want to see her naked"
"And you won't and Chad stop being a dumbass and pass the ball' Troy yelled 'god you people are annoying"
"I heard that!" both Ryan and Chad said at the same time.
"Good" Troy growled.

"Okay so what did I miss?" Alice asked as she hurried into the lounge again and took her seat next to Keisha.
"Nothing much, just a garter" Kelly said looking bored.
"Okay time for mine and Shar's gift" Gabi said as she handed over the neatly wrapped box to Taylor.
"It's more for Troy than it is for you" Shar said as Taylor ripped open the wrapping paper and gasped.
"Are you two insane I can't wear that"
"Yes you can, Troy will absolutely love seeing you in it. It's like a symbol your always rooting for him in the stands now your rooting for him in the bedroom" Sharpay explained to a embarrassed Taylor.
"What did the girls get you?" Taylor slowly took out the content of the box and held it up so that Alice and Keisha could see what it was.
"That is absolutely hilarious" Keisha said laughing and Alice soon followed.
Taylor was holding up a matching set of white lace bra and underwear with the number 14 imprinted in gold.
"You really will be rooting for Troy sweetie, on the court and in private" Keisha said.
