Twilight Musical

Chapter 11: We Should Be Able To Go!

The rest of the weekend was uneventful, apart from Alice complaining that nearly everything had disappeared from her sight, except completely trivial things like who's going to win the Super Bowl next year and the winning numbers for the local lottery. The stalker girl has given up, or at least, I hope she has and she's not just getting better at hiding.

I debated with myself on whether or not to tell Edward. On one hand, the girl may become a problem, and she's seriously creeping me out. Or maybe she's just a figment of my imagination, or I'm going crazy. Or, like one of my earlier theories, she is a ghost. Right.

I figured that if she showed up again, I would tell Edward, even though it seems like he can't see her, or smell her, or hear her . . . hear her, I wonder if he can hear her thoughts. But if he could, wouldn't he have heard her when he looked over his shoulder for the umpteenth time to find out what I was looking at? My head was spinning.

I let the subject drop, thinking I would worry about it if she came back. And she probably won't, because I am keeping my imagination well under control.

Monday came, and I was only slightly surprised to see a lot of kids with hiking gear. I mean, everyone was already acting crazy, I wouldn't be too surprised to see the entire student body in clown costumes.

"What's with the hiking gear?" I asked Edward anyway. "I mean, it's a school day, and there's no where to go, except maybe the desert."

Edward sighed. "Troy Bolton was going to try to lead a search party today, and yes, many of the kids were planning on scanning the desert. He called the principal yesterday for permission, but he refused, so Troy figured if everyone dressed like they were ready to go, he'd let them." He shook his head and pulled into our usual parking space.

"Is it going to work?" I asked.

Edward shook his head again. "No, probably not, but he was thinking that they could all at least go at lunch anyway. But the principal is probably going to think of that and ban anyone from eating lunch off campus."

Edward must be getting Alice's powers, because in first period ther was an announcement saying that no one can leave the campus for lunch today. Several students groaned, and I almost did, thinking about how long the lunch line was going to be today.

The morning rolled right along, and I was happy to see not a sign of that stalker girl. Maybe she was just a part of my imagination after all. So I was happily skipping along by the time to go to lunch, but then my mood was crushed by the sight of the lunch line. "Whoa."

"Be happy several of the students are boycotting the lunch. They think that the school lunch program wasn't making enough money so they decided to not allow students to go out for lunch, instead of the real reason," Edward said.

I sighed, and took a place in a line so long you'd think you were waiting to get on a ride at Disney World, not a high school lunch.

The line moved at a sluggish pace, but eventually I made it to the front. Edward and I sat with the rest of his family, and I made a mental note to pack a sack lunch from now on.

It was so loud in the cafeteria today that I could hardly keep my train of thought, let alone here whatever Emmett was going on about at the moment, not that I wanted to know, knowing him. So I was shocked when everything went completely silent for about a split second. Then someone spoke out.

"Why is it so loud/ in the lunchroom now/ Ears are ringing with the unusual roar/ And there are more students/ here trying my patience/ They need to shut up for sure."I looked around and spotted a guy that looked a liitle like Eric Yorkie from Forks standing on top of one of the red East High tables. I was surprised to find that I, like most of the other students, wasn't overly shocked to find a kid suddenly singing about the noise. I just rolled my eyes and went back to my lunch, only to find the singing impossible to tune out.

"No!" the Eric-look-alike sang, along with his friends. "No, no, no!/ We should be able to go!/Leave us in peace/ while we eat/ And not have to hear 'em bellow/ We should be able to go!" I sighed. Who writes this stuff?

Now one of the cheerleaders stood up. "Why should we/ be stuck with these freaks?" Um, little miss I'm-so-much-better-than-everyone, last time I checked, bursting out into song in the middle of a high school cafeteria isn't exactly the norm for snobby cheerleader-types, either. "And not allowed to leave to eat/ I have to lunch here- yuck/ and we're all out of luck/ they're serving us mystery meat."

"Why must we be treated bad?" the rest of the cheer squad came in. "This is so unfab!" You want to know what's unfab, I wanted to yell back at them, not being able to eat my food in peace!

"No! No, no no!/ We should be able to go!/ Eat steak and veal/ not this unsightly meal/ We do have enough dough/ We should be able to go!"

One of Troy's friends, I think his name is Zeke, took his turn at singing. "One thing is clear/ we shouldn't be here/ we should be out looking for our friends/ But are we out there, no/ Matsui won't let us go/ He put our efforts to an end."

"He just doesn't care 'bout us," sang some of his friends. "And thinks it's not worth the fuss!" Ok, so from what I gathered, Matsui is the name of the principal. And I'm getting a headache.

"No! No, no, no!" Great, here comes the denial again, I thought to myself. "We should be able to go/ lend a hand/ and find our friends/ and make our concern show/ We should be able to go!"

"Gah!" Emmett shouted all of the sudden. "This going to be stuck in my head all day!" And with that, he ran out the doors.

"I guess that's our cue to leave," said Edward, and I nodded.

We walked to the doors at a sluggish pace, pushing all of the dancing bodies out of our way. Mean while, everyone sang, "This is not what we wanted."

Troy, making his first singing appearance today, said, "This is not what I planned."

"Wait, what did he say?" one of the Eric clone's friends asked.

"I did not not understand," shrugged someone else.

The cheerleader started singing again. "This is, like, really. . ."

"It's really loud," Eric's twin mumbled.

"Really dumb," continued the cheerleader.

Rosalie, Alice, and Jasper slipped through the exit ahead of us.

Another member of the squad sang, "And no one wants to eat this nasty chum!"

I couldn't take it. "Everybody, quiet!" I shouted, and covered my mouth. Edward pulled me through the doors as the cafeteria went silent.

* * *

The rest of the day went by, and I couldn't help but wonder where that outburst in the cafeteria came from. It seemed so unlike me, but then again, a lot of my actions have been surprising me lately. Everyone just seems so different, including myself. And I'm pretty sure it has nothing to do with the New Mexico heat.

I thinking about this when we got in the Volvo, and I was still thinking about it when we got to the house.

When it was time for bed, crawled in bed and went to sleep instantly, not noticing the dark figure sitting on a tree limb out the window.

So who is Bella's mysterious stalker?

Why does everyone have to sing?

And how does no one notice that it's crazy?

Where is this story going?

And why am I asking these questions? I have no idea.

Sorry about the long wait, I had a serious case of writer's block on this story, so I was writing another fan fic that I have been working on! Yay! The only bad part is that I don't have a title for it yet :-( but don't worry, I'm working on it.

Ok, honestly, I'm not that into this story anymore, but don't worry, I will finish it, and the way I have it in my head, it should be over with in three to four more chapters.

Because I'm pretty much going to wrap up the story, I figured I would throw in one last song, even though no one really seemed to like the last one, but oh, well, it is Twilight Musical, isn't it? And in case you didn't catch it, the song was supposed to be like "Stick to the Status Quo".
