Happy Easter! Ha it was my dad's b-day today so very busy. Anyways here's my little Easter offering to y'all.
Of moral misdeeds, creepy smiles and boredom
So the plan was all in motion and Gabriella Montez stood shaking nervously hidden by the gang of wildcats that had bought her there. At the front of the group, stood the very wildcat who was responsible for the plan. Chad faced the stage breath held in anticipation for the show to start.
"And back this year is Sharpay Evans singing with our junior golf instructor Troy Bolton!"
Oh no she's not, thought Chad smiling to himself.
They all watched Troy coming onto the stage and begin the song and they all parted to let Gabriella through to sing her part and surprise Troy with her return.
The wildcats attention was now, completely focused upon their two friends reunited on the stage, Chad however was barely looking, instead he kept turning his head to observe the face of a certain blonde that was standing by the stage looking anywhere but up at the lovers sweet harmony.
And what a face! Sharpay Evans looked like she'd just been told she'd have to shave off all her hair for charity whilst enduring extreme intestinal cramps.
He kept staring at her willing her to look his way, eventually she did and Chad stuck both his thumbs up and smiled wildly at her in an extremely mock sarcastic fashion. Her eyes flashed and Chad knew she understood it had been his idea to replace her with Gabriella, giving her one last mocking smile he tauntingly turned his gaze back to the stage.
1-2-3, something was wrong why wasn't she coming over to shout rage fully at him or at the very least slap him?
He looked back at her and met her gaze, quickly they both looked away, she because she was trying to hide the fact that a cascade of tears were pouring silently out of her eyes and him, because he didn't want to see those tears. Because he didn't want to feel suddenly guilty. But he couldn't help the question now popping up in his mind; Had he gone to far?
"No dam it! She deserves it!"
"Who deserves what?"
Looking down at Taylor Chad realised he had just spoken aloud.
"Um er-" he looked around for an excuse and his gaze fell on the stage.
"Um, Gabriella she uh she really deserves this night you know after all the crap between her and Troy."
Taylor blinked bemusedly wrinkling her nose;
"O-k-a-y. Yeah she does, but I didn't know you felt so forceful about it."
She was joking and smiled at him before turning back to face the stage.
Of course the girl Chad had just been thinking off wasn't Gabriella. He continued his internal argument. Yep she definitely deserved it. Had it been her she wouldn't have given a second thought about crushing him. And she needed to realize that this 'sidekick', wasn't going to get pushed around by her anymore.
Glad to have put his conscience to rest, Chad joined the rest of the Wildcats as they all jumped on stage to finish the song.
Everything was going great, everyone was singing and dancing, all united in joy and happiness about Troy and Gabriella making things up. That was until Chad spotted Sharpay being helped on to the stage by Troy.
What?! This wasn't meant to happen, she was meant to be sobbing in a corner, sorry she ever crossed Chad Danford.
He nudged the person dancing next to him;
"She shouldn't be allowed up here."
However the person didn't seem to have heard him and looking around Chad saw that no one else was spluttering indignantly at this obvious spectacle of moral misguidance.
Chad was in-raged further when he saw Sharpay reacting with, in his mind, completely fake redemption.
The party carried on well into the night, but for a slightly drunk Chad it was ruined.
"I mean come on! And giving that award to her brother, how fake was that?" Jason shook his head at him.
"Chad man, chill out, she's obviously sorry for everything and it's a party dude! Plus look at Zeke he looks like all his Christmases have come at once."
Jason walked off to dance with Kelsey and Chad turned to look blearily where Jason had been indicating. Zeke was standing at the bottom of the hill watching Sharpay run around splashing water with the others, a smile on his face that, in Chad's opinion, made him look like a complete creep.
He left the party earlier, not bothering to make any excuses to Taylor or anyone else who were to busy having fun to notice that this wildcat was no longer in the mood.
Chad laid in bed, the cool darkness sobering him up slightly. He felt distinctly like a child who'd been promised a sweet and then had it dangled tantalizingly close only to be snatched back cruelly. It was so unfair! Tonight wasn't meant to end like this. It should have been Sharpay laying in her bed cursing at the injustice of life, he should be partying it up with his friends roaring drunk right now, not in bed feeling sorry for himself. Driven by injustice and slight intoxication, Chad grabbed his mobile out of his pocket, were he hadn't bothered to change. He had no clue of her number but he had Ryan's.
"Hi!"
He could hear the sounds of the party carrying on, this only aided in angering him further.
"Ryan, I need to speak to your sister."
"Hey man where did you go? Hold on why do you want to speak to my sister?"
"Just put her on!"
It appeared Ryan was also slightly tipsy, otherwise he might have been offended at Chad's aggressive tone.
He could hear Ryan calling her and tapped his hand impatiently on his thigh.
"What, what are you talking about Rye?"
"It's Chad he wants to talk to you."
He heard the static's from the mobile as it was passed from Ryan to Sharpay.
"Chad? Is that you? What do you want-"
"Oi! Listen, I know you're just acting like you're sorry , but cut the crap Evans cause we both know its fake!
She heaved a big sigh.
"No I'm not.
Were quits now right? So why don't you come back to the party?"
Chad laughed manically into the phone, no way, she was having him on.
"Bitch you're such a Sharpay!"
Not realizing his muddled words Chad cut the call violently and slammed his head back onto the pillow falling into a sea of chaotic dreams into all of which Zeke's creepy smile seemed to be haunting him.
The next morning Chad woke up with a huge headache the mixture of a hangover and a mind that had been stretched to the limit.
"Good party?"
A dismissive grunt was the only answer his mum got over breakfast.
Back at Lava Springs everyone was still in high spirits, everyone apart from Chad that is. Sharpay was still playing her part of holding hands around the campfire and though he was angry with her, Chad was relieved she and Ryan seemed to have forgotten about the phone call.
A couple of weeks passed and everything was pretty much the same. The wildcats worked, sung, hung out, partied at weekends, Troy and Gabriella were going stronger then ever and now Sharpay and Ryan were part of the gang, all one happy family.
Even Chad's resentment of Sharpay's inclusion in the group was slowly easing away. She seemed to be genuinely turning over a new leaf and after all he supposed they were even now.
No, Chad's newest problem was boredom. He guessed it was due to how stretched his emotions had been lately that everything seemed pretty dull now. He couldn't work out what it was, wasn't this what he had been waiting for, for everything to settle back down how he liked them. But now things were back in place they all seemed so lifeless, boring job, boring parties, boring basketball games, and even more boring dates with Taylor, he knew it was cruel to think it but sometimes he felt amazed that he could even stay awake when they kissed, in other words it was BORING..
It took a few more boring days for Chad to work out what was missing; Sharpay….. Or at least his arguments with her. That's right, crazy as it sounded, Chad was actually missing the spiteful blond and their heated arguments. Technically he saw her everyday and yet it wasn't the same, he couldn't get close to her now and they had no secret hatred, that's right Chad Danford was so bored he would have probably given up a chance to see the Red Hawks play just to have Sharpay Evans wind him up.
It was insane of course, ridiculous, he couldn't just go up to her and demand they have a fight just for his entertainment. Pacing around in his room he shook his head, why the hell would he want to anyway that was just crazy!
"Chad! Chad have you seen my dressing gown? You know my nice one I haven't seen it in weeks."
He was just about to answer no when inspiration took him. The expensive dressing gown, now when had he seen it last……
A few minutes later Chad was riding on his bike as fast as if his life depended on it.
I'm just going for the dressing gown, I'm just going for the dressing gown. Oh hell, he was going for Sharpay and he knew it. Coming to a stop excitedly outside her drive, Chad got off his bike and practically ran to the front door, mentally storing up witty remarks he could exchange with her.
Okay so what did you think?
Next Chapter: some surprises in store and more Chadpay action.
