Here we go another chapter! This one was quite difficult to write but i manged to do it. Anyway enjoy!
The weekend had flew by quickly and Gabriella was now standing in front of her mirror, getting ready for school. She was dressed in a grey ruched turtleneck top with a pair of skinny jeans. She wore her black Mary Jane's on her feet. Her hair was not tied up but was flowing free showing off her colour and curls. She took off her glasses and put in her new contact lenses. She had bought clear contacts because she didn't want to look like Chanel. Gabriella had applied some mascara, eyeliner and a tad of eye shadow. She was now applying a thin layer of lip-gloss on her plumped up lips. Gabriella placed her make up back on her dressing table and looked at her reflection. She looked like a whole new person. Gabriella smiled and grabbed her Jane Norman bag on her way out of her room.
Opposite Gabriella's Room…
Chanel was sitting in her own bedroom going over what she planned on doing today. Her phone began to ring and she stood up to go answer it.
"Hello." She spoke.
"Hey Chan." Chanel felt like hanging up but she couldn't.
"Hey Dan…" She spoke quietly. Dan had been ringing her for quite some time now. But every single time she saw his number appear on the screen she just dismissed it and didn't answer. This time Dan called from a private number.
"So how long are you planning to ignore me?" He put it simply and blatantly. Chanel felt a lump in her throat; she knew he was going to ask something like that.
"Who said I was ignoring you?" She said with a little bit of bravery. Dan scoffed.
"I did. Every time I call you, you never pick up. But now I'm calling you from a private number you just happen to pick up. If that's not called ignoring someone then I don't know what it is." He explained. Chanel closed her eyes this was not going good.
"Sorry Dan, but I must have not heard the phone ring, or I mustn't have had my phone with me." Chanel came up with a lame excuse.
"That's just bull an you know it." Dan replied. Chanel sighed.
"Dan what do you want?" She asked him.
"I just wanted to see how my girl was getting on." Dan answered. That comment got to her. Chanel frowned.
"Dan I'm not your girl anymore." She said.
"Well between the 'I love you's' and the kisses that you left me with, I'm pretty sure that we're still an item." Dan said. What he said was 100 true but not the last part. Dan knew that they were as good as over but he just wanted to see what Chanel would make out of it. He needed to know whether he was just a mere boy toy for her all these years.
"Listen Dan we are not an item! All those love you's were just in the heat of the moment okay. We were finished once I stepped into the San Francisco airport okay!" Chanel yelled at him. Dan smirked.
"I knew that." He said calmly.
"W-What?" Chanel asked.
"I just wanted to figure out whether you took me seriously all these years." Dan said. Chanel sighed.
"Oh Dan…" She began to say but she was cut off.
"Don't." Dan said and with those last few words he hung up. Chanel groaned in frustration and chucked her phone onto her bed. She sighed and walked over to her closet. She pulled out a black slinky one-shoulder top and a black puffball mini skirt. She got dressed and then chose some knee length boots to cover her feet. Chanel was in the mood to ruin someone and she knew exactly who that person was.
In The Kitchen…
Gabriella was sat on a stool munching on her cereal. She had come downstairs and was greeted by Celina and some nice, warm breakfast. Gabriella felt a little suspicious of her stepmother's behaviour but just dismissed it. It wasn't everyday that she got treated like a normal person in her house. Celina watched as Gabriella enjoyed the comfort she was getting. She was about to scowl but then dismissed it. Chanel waltzed into the room and stared at Gabriella.
"Mom she's sitting in MY seat, eating MY breakfast." Chanel cried as she watched her sister sitting and munching away happily. Celina groaned quietly and then went to talk to Chanel.
"Honey she's nearly done, then you can sit there and eat your breakfast." Celina said quietly. In reality she wanted to grab Gabriella from her hair and force her off the stool. But Julio was sitting in the same room. Chanel glared at Gabriella.
"It doesn't matter I'll just get something to go." She said as she went to look in the fridge. Gabriella smirked and stood up.
"No you don't have to do that, I've finished anyway." She said as she cleared the table and placed her dishes in the sink. Chanel shot her a fake smile.
"I've lost my appetite." She said. Gabriella shrugged and grabbed her bag.
"Goodbye all!" She said as she gave her father a kiss on his cheek. Julio smiled at her. Chanel did the same and walked out of the house at the same time as Gabriella. Troy was waiting outside for his best friend to come out. He saw two girls walk out. One was obviously Chanel, due to her clothes. The other was surprisingly Gabriella. Troy's mouth fell open as he watched her walk over. Gabriella smiled and took Troy's arm. They began to make their way to school. Chanel trailed after them and scowled as Gabriella and Troy laughed together. They were just best friends, she kept reminding herself. But even she could see the attraction between the two.
East High Drama Studio…
Sharpay walked into the theatre with full confidence. She stood in front of Ms Darbus and opened her mouth.
"I want to be the president of the drama club again." She told her drama frenzy teacher. Ms Darbus eyed the blonde girl.
"And what makes you think that I will let you run for that position again?" Ms Darbus asked her. Sharpay smiled, she knew that Ms Darbus would ask this question.
"Well for one I'll make sure that the theatre doesn't look exactly like another theatre." Sharpay said. Ms Darbus raised an eyebrow.
"What do you mean?" She asked curiously. Sharpay looked at her nails.
"I know that you like the theatre to look unique but at the moment it's lacking uniqueness. It's saying 'boredom'. I know for a fact that there is another theatre exactly like this." Sharpay said. Ms Darbus put a hand to her heart. Sharpay knew she struck a nerve. Ms Darbus didn't like her theatre to look the same as others. When she first arrived at East High she spent weeks making it look more Darbus like.
"This theatre looks like, well it just looks like a normal boring theatre. But if you put up the position for president of the drama club again then maybe I can convert it back to its glittery, flowery glory." Sharpay said. Ms Darbus smirked.
"I'll see what I can do." She said as she walked away. Sharpay watched her walk off before punching the air.
"Yes!" She yelled in victory. Sharpay walked back out of the theatre and went to find her friends. The only person she found was Martha.
"Hey Shar!" Martha called out to her rich friend. Sharpay looked over and smiled.
"Hey Martha, guess what?" She said smiling.
"What?" Martha asked.
"I went to Ms Darbus and she might consider putting up the position for President of the drama club again." Sharpay announced. Martha smiled at how happy Sharpay was.
"That's great!" She cried. Sharpay nodded excitedly.
"So where are you going?" She asked Martha.
"Oh dance studio. The leading lady wanted to have a word with me." Martha said. That doesn't sound too good, Sharpay thought. Every time they had to talk to a teacher they ended up upset and angry.
"I'll come with you." Sharpay said. Martha nodded and the two walked over to the dance studio.
In The Principal's Office…
"…And so you see sir, there is no way I could have cheated. It's impossible." Taylor finished her speech. Mr Mtsaui looked at the African-American teen for a few moments. Taylor waited with patience, but inside she was screaming, wanting to know what his answer was. For the last half an hour she had been explaining the reason's why she shouldn't be chucked off the Scholastic Decathlon team. He had just been sitting there taking every word in. Chad was waiting impatiently on the other side of the door. Every now and again he put his ear to the door and listened to what they were saying. He was as eager as Taylor to hear their principal's decision.
"Miss McKessie your presentation was very organised and it has made me see that maybe the information I received was wrong." Mr Mtsaui began to say. Taylor looked at him with an eager expression waiting for him to carry on.
"So I have decided to let you back on the team…but…if I hear or see anymore evidence saying that you're cheating then I will take you off the team for good." He announced. Taylor had to stop herself from jumping up and down.
"Thank you so much sir. I won't disappoint you." Taylor said as she gathered her belongings and left his office. She greeted Chad with a grin on her face and he knew instantly that the presentation was a success. He picked her up and twirled her around. The two walked out of the office with smiles spread on their faces. Today was a good day.
At Lockers 374 and 375…Gabriella placed some books in her locker and then took some papers out; she placed them in her bag and then closed her locker. Troy was standing next to her looking in his own locker. He chucked his bag in and then slammed the locker door. He looked over at Gabriella and smiled. They began to walk towards their homeroom. As Gabriella walked she felt like everyone was staring at them. She looked down and sighed, it wasn't joint hands this time. Troy leant down and whispered in her ear.
"You might not know this but all the guys of East High have their eyes on you at the moment." He said before looking around. Gabriella looked up and saw that Troy was right. Every guy was looking at her. Her cheeks flushed in embarrassment and she moved closer to Troy. Troy just grinned at this action.
"I called her first!" He heard someone call out. Troy's head whipped around to see who it was. The football captain, Jake, walked up to the pair.
"Hey baby, want to go on a ride with Jakey?" He asked as if it was only Gabriella standing in the hallway. Gabriella looked at him and nearly puked. He was so not her type. Her type was…well…it was Troy but no one needed to know that.
"I-um…" She began to say. She glanced over at Troy and gave him a look that said HELP! Troy nodded.
"Oi Jake, get away from her." Troy said. Jake sighed and looked over at his rival.
"What do you want basket boy?" He said and grinned as if he had made the funniest joke ever. Troy remained serious.
"I want you to stay away from my girl." Troy said glaring at the football captain. Jake smirked.
"She ent your girl Bolton." He spat. Troy raised an eyebrow and looked over at Gabriella.
"Brie, are you my girlfriend?" He asked the brunette. He gave her a look and she nodded.
"Yes, yes I am." She said with full confidence. She walked over to her best friend and wrapped an arm around his waist. Jake looked at her in awe.
"Back off pretty boy." Troy said as he walked off with his "girlfriend". When they turned the corner they burst out laughing.
"Now that was hilarious!" Troy said. Gabriella nodded.
"Did you see his face when I said yes!" She said. They laughed it off for a while before walking to their homeroom. They met Chad and Taylor on the way.
"Hey guys." Gabriella said. She linked arms with Taylor as they walked into the classroom.
"Gab I'm back on the team!" Taylor announced. Gabriella smiled and hugged her genius friend. They went to their normal places and found a very teary Martha. Gabriella sat in her seat next to her dancing friend.
"What's wrong M?" She asked. Martha refused to look at her.
"She got kicked out of the dance club." Sharpay added. Gabriella gasped.
"Oh my God that's really bad. I'm sorry M." Gabriella placed an arm around Martha.
"Don't worry G, it's only dance." Martha said quietly. Gabriella shook her head.
"No it isn't only dance M. You love dance and you know what I'm going to ask Mrs-I –Think-I'm-The-Best-Dancer-In-The-World why the hell she chucked you out." Gabriella informed Martha. Martha smiled slightly.
"Thanks G." Martha said. Gabriella just smiled and sat back in her seat. Ms Darbus entered the room and stood in front of the class.
"Morning all." She began. Everyone exchanged glances, Ms Darbus never greeted them the first thing she normally did when entering the room was tell Chad off.
"Chad please put away your basketball. This isn't a basketball court." She said. Everyone gasped, something was wrong. Jason put his hand up.
"Yes Jason?" She asked. Everyone turned around to look at him.
"Is something wrong Ms?" Jason asked. Ms Darbus shook her head.
"No I'm perfectly fine Jason." She answered. Jason nodded but didn't quite believe her.
"Okay so I have an announcement to make. Whoever is part of the drama club will have to vote on which person they want as the president. I have chosen two potential candidates and they are Miss Sharpay Evans and Miss Chanel Montez." Ms Darbus announced. The drama club nodded and the gang smiled. Chanel on the other hand was not pleased, not pleased at all.
15 Minutes Later…
The gang walked out of homeroom with smiles on their faces.
"Did you see her face Shar? She was horrified!" Ryan exclaimed. Sharpay smiled at her brother.
"Yeah, you really got her back Shar." Kelsi spoke up. Sharpay just grinned and walked along with her friends. The people in the drama club were getting sick of Chanel anyway so Sharpay was favourite to win. Zeke hugged his girlfriend from the back and she smiled even more.
"My life is so perfect at the moment." Sharpay said as she leaned up to kiss Zeke.
"Oi Barbie girl!" Sharpay stopped kissing Zeke and looked to see who was shouting. She didn't think they were talking to her so she just shrugged and held onto her boyfriend.
"I'm talking to you Blondie!" This time Sharpay knew it was her. She looked to see Chanel standing in front of her.
"Oh what do you want Montez number deux." Sharpay asked.
"I want you to know that this isn't over yet." Chanel sneered. Sharpay just scoffed.
"Just get over your pathetic little self. This was over the minute Ms Darbus announced that you were no longer president of the drama club. Oh and that I have a shot at it." Sharpay said sweetly. Chanel rolled her eyes.
"Oh please, like anyone will vote for you. Wait just your gay brother and that mousy little friend of yours." Chanel said. Sharpay glared at her. The students in the hallway stepped to a side, not wanting to get in her way. Even Ryan and Kelsi backed off. Zeke remained next to her knowing that someone had to control her.
"My brother is NOT gay and even if he is it just means that there's another guy that'll reject you! Kelsi is the best composer I've ever seen and you're just miffed that she'd rather write songs for Gabs then write songs for the likes of YOU!" She yelled. Chanel took a step back.
"You know what…" She said, trying to think of something.
"I know that you should get out of my sight before I go ballistic on you" Sharpay cried as she glared at Chanel. Chanel glared back, but only for a few seconds. She stepped back and then walked off. Sharpay smirked.
"Still got it in me." She said. Zeke smiled and took her hand.
"C'mon 'Ice Princess' we've got English. This time don't get Jason to do your dirty work for you." Zeke winked at her. Sharpay laughed. He was referring to the time she made Jason chuck a paper with her number on it to Zeke.
"I'll try." She answered. The couple just walked to their class. They went inside and everyone was already there including Jason.
"May I ask why you're late?" Miss Shirley asked the pair. Zeke looked at Sharpay.
"We had to-" He began to say.
"-Handle some really, really annoying business." Sharpay finished off for him. She put the emphasis on really.
"Well next time try to handle this annoying business in your own time, not mine. Detention after school, 20 minutes." Miss Shirley handed them some papers and they sat down. Sharpay looked down at the paper and sighed. It was a mock exam. Sharpay put her hand up.
"Urm Miss Shirley you didn't tell us that we were going to have a mock exam." Sharpay told her teacher. Miss Shirley sighed.
"Miss Evans, you shall find that I did. The day you and Mr Baylor decided to pass notes via Mr Cross." Miss Shirley said. Sharpay nodded and tried to hide her smile.
"Okay class, get out your pens and no pink ones Miss Evans." She said glancing at Sharpay. The blonde girl sighed and put away her pen.
"In that case I don't have a pen." Sharpay said and folded her arms. Miss Shirley sighed.
"Mr Baylor would you be so kind to give your fair lady a black or blue pen." She turned to face Zeke. Zeke grunted and looked in his bag. He found a pen and tossed it over to Sharpay who gave him a quick smile and caught the pen.
"Okay moving on, this test will be for the whole period – well what's left of it – and you will answer all the questions. The text is on your desk and everyone start. Mr Cross put your hand down, pick up the pen and get to work." Miss Shirley said without even looking at Jason. Jason sighed and put his hand down. The class laughed a little before settling down and getting to work.
Gym…
"…That's why Coach Bolton is not present today." The substitute teacher, Mr Ross, finished his long lasting lecture. He looked around the class, half of the people were falling asleep, and half were looking around bored out of their minds.
"Urm sir can we actually do something?" Jen asked. She hated physical education but it was way better than listening to an unattractive guy go on about her uncle and why he was not present. She knew all of that.
"Yes we can Miss Cooley." Mr Ross said. The whole class waited for him to carry on but he just stood there as if he was expecting someone else to speak up.
"Why don't we just chill out and relax?" Another girl called out. Everyone looked to see who it was. Jen smiled as she spotted her friend and fellow cheerleader, Britney Allen.
"Yeah …sure…that would be nice." Mr Ross said as he just walked off in another direction. Everyone exchanged glances before laughing.
"What a doofus." Britney said.
"Yeah did you see the look on his face?" Rick, a guy on the basketball team, made the same face as Mr Ross. Gabriella giggled at his impression.
"He's cute ain't he Gab?" Taylor asked her friend. Gabriella looked over at Rick. He had brown hair, that wasn't as nice as Troy's because it was darker. Rick' hair was gelled up in spikes whereas Troy's hair was a little messed, leaving a part of it to fall over his eyes. Gabriella shook the thoughts out of her head and concentrated on what Taylor was saying.
"He's got gorgeous eyes." Taylor said, smiling at her friend. Gabriella had noticed his blue eyes but they weren't as intense as Troy's.
"Troy's are more blue." She found herself saying. Gabriella gasped and put her hand over her mouth.
"Oh I heard that!" Taylor said with a grin. "I knew you liked Troy." She continued. Gabriella sighed, if Taylor had figured it out then there was no point in denying it right?
"Fine you win, I do like him." Gabriella admitted. She looked over at Troy who was playing basketball.
"You should do something about it." Taylor said as she followed Gabriella's gaze. But Taylor's eyes settled on her own boyfriend. She watched Chad jump up and down as he scored a basket.
"I can't ruin our friendship Tay, plus I want him to make the first move. That's if he really likes me." Gabriella said. Taylor just laughed at her friend.
"Gabriella, Mrs Janis is calling you." Gabriella looked up to see Keely shouting for her. Gabriella nodded and ran out of the gym. She walked with Keely to the dance studio.
"She said it's really important." Keely said as they walked. Gabriella nodded.
"By the way, I wanted to ask you a question. Where did you learn to dance?" Keely asked. Gabriella smiled.
"My mother taught me, she was a brilliant dancer, one of the best. She used to teach me odd steps and I even put together my own routine when I was small. But then when she…di-passed away I kind of learnt everything form the video's I had of her and stuff." Gabriella said. Keely looked at her in confusion.
"I thought your mother was alive? I mean I hear Chanel saying, 'my mother this and my mother that'." Keely said.
"Well my mom passed away and my dad got remarried a few years later." Gabriella said. Keely gave her a small smile. They reached the dance studio and Keely stopped.
"Aren't you coming?" Gabriella asked her blonde friend. Keely shook her head and walked off. Gabriella shrugged and entered the dance studio. She found Mrs Janis sitting in a yoga position on a yoga mat.
"Mrs Janis…?" Gabriella spoke. Mrs Janis opened her eyes and looked at Gabriella. She gave her a wide smile. Mrs Janis was an excellent dancer, she competed in all the competitions and nearly won but one of her rivals 'accidentally' injured her. Now she taught girls how to dance. She was quite young and married. She had straight, sleek blonde hair that was always tied up in a bun and on odd days she had it up in a ponytail. She had light blue eyes that were surrounded by dark, smoky make up. She had plump lips that were always glossy. Mrs Janis was an excellent dancer, she had a flexible body and could adapt to any kind of dance.
"Ah Gabriella." She spoke in her French accent. She patted the mat next to her and Gabriella sat down.
"You look very pretty today." She commented.
"Thank you." Gabriella said.
"Zo you have come to see what I have to zay to you…no?" She asked. Gabriella looked at her and thought before replying.
"Yes…?" She said. Mrs Janis nodded.
"Well I have to zay zat you are a very good dancer. Probably ze best ve have had in years, zo I 'ave decided to let you play ze lead dancer in our next showcase. You are happy with zis…no?" Mrs Janis said. Gabriella nodded excitedly. She had always dreamed off leading the dance in a showcase and now her dream was going to come true.
"Okay I see zat you are happy, now go." Mrs Janis said as she resumed her yoga position. Gabriella stood up and began to walk out. But then she remembered something and looked back at Mrs Janis.
"Mrs Janis, why did you kick Martha out?" Gabriella asked.
"Too much hip-hop, no passion." Mrs Janis said. Gabriella gasped.
"Martha is very passionate about dancing. She dances everyday and she is very versatile." Gabriella explained.
"No she is not! You are versatile, she is just like a record player stuck on one track." Mrs Janis said. Gabriella was about to protest but then remembered that this could just make things even worse. Gabriella just backed away and walked out.
Lunch…
"So hasn't she done anything weird lately?" Kelsi asked her boyfriend.
"No she's quietened down for a while I guess. But I'm still going to kill her for insulting you this morning. The nerve…" Jason said as he glared at Chanel who was sitting a few tables away from them.
"Jase, she only called me little. I'm okay with that because, you know, I am quite little." Kelsi said. Jason smiled at her.
"No you're petite, it sounds better." He said. Kelsi giggled and smacked him playfully. Ryan was sitting with Sharpay opposite the couple.
"…She was just so mad for the rest of Biology. Plus it was hilarious when she dropped the dead frog and Andy stood up and stuffed it down her top." Ryan smiled at the memory. Sharpay burst out laughing.
"I think I've started to like that guy." Sharpay said. Ryan just laughed at his sister's words.
"So Kels did the witch say anything to you?" Sharpay asked. Kelsi shook her head.
"No I was with Martha in Math and she was in Chem. So she couldn't say anything." Kelsi explained.
"Good 'cause if she did say anything to you then I would be more than happy to put her in her place." Sharpay said. Kelsi nodded and looked down at her paper. She was working on a new piece of music. She planned on getting Troy and Gabriella to test it out for her. But she was going to record their performance and show Ms Darbus. The only other person who knew about this was Jason. The doors of the cafeteria opened and Zeke, Chad and Taylor walked in.
"…He did not! It was a good pass and…" Chad was saying.
"And it made you score the winning basket…yes we know Chad." Taylor said with a bored face. She had been listening to the guys talk about basketball for a very long time.
"It was a good one at that." Chad said as he draped an arm around Taylor's shoulders. They sat down around the table and began to eat their lunches. Zeke sat next to Sharpay and took out a bag of his homemade cupcakes.
"Yum!" Chad said as he swiped one. Taylor rolled her eyes and refused to take one when Zeke offered them.
"No thanks Zeke. I'm watching what I eat." Taylor said. Zeke shook his head and took one out for Sharpay.
"Cheers Zeke." Sharpay said as she took it from his hands. It was covered in pink frosting, Taylor looked at the cupcake in disgust as she watched Sharpay devour it.
"Hey guys." Everyone looked up to greet Troy, Gabriella, Martha and Jen. The four sat down, completing the circle of friends.
"So guys, I was thinking we could all go down to the care home sometime. I mean Sue said she could use the help and so did Aunt Lucy." Jen said.
"That sounds great Jen." Ryan said. Jen flashed him a smile.
"So that'll be next Friday after school." Jen told them, they nodded and made a note of the date. Gabriella searched her mind to see if she was free.
"Urm I can't come." She said. Jen looked at her, waiting for an explanation.
"I have a thing to do…" She said. Jen raised one of her eyebrows.
"Okay! I have to practise for the showcase with Mrs Janis." Gabriella admitted.
"Well you could have just said that the first time." Jen said as she rolled her eyes and got back to eating her lunch. Gabriella glanced at Martha who was now as quiet as mouse.
"Urm, M, I asked Mrs Janis why she kicked you out." Gabriella began to say. Martha looked up instantly.
"She began making excuses, she said that you only danced to hip hop and didn't put enough passion into your dancing. I fought back with, you are very versatile and you put a lot of passion into your dancing. But she wouldn't listen to me. I'm sorry M." Gabriella apologised, she felt horrible.
"No it's okay. I think I can handle the fact that you're better than me." Martha said. Gabriella sighed.
"I'm not better than you M. you just have your style of dance and I have mine. We're each good in our own way." Gabriella said.
"Apparently you're better. Seeing as she put you in the showcase and not me." Martha added sulkily. Gabriella just stopped talking. She put her head down and finished what was left of her cookie.
"Anyways, is everyone else still up for the care home visit?" Jen asked. The gang, minus Gabriella, nodded their heads. Jen smiled at them all.
"Oh by the way Gabs, I love your new style." Sharpay said. Gabriella looked up and smiled.
"Well I thought that it was time for a change." She said as she looked down at her new clothes. "Although I still think I've overdone it." She said.
"No you haven't, it looks great, right guys?" Sharpay said.
"Yeah Gab, you look like a whole different person." Taylor said.
"Yeah I have to say that grey doesn't suit many people, but in your case it's working." Jen commented. Gabriella thanked the girls.
"I think you look a lot like Chanel." Martha said. Gabriella looked up at her friend in awe.
"No you don't Brie." Troy said, noticing the look on Gabriella's face. Gabriella looked at Troy and gave him a small smile. Kelsi shot a look at Martha. Sharpay kicked her underneath the table and Taylor was shaking her head in disappointment.
"What can't I-" Martha was cut off by Jen.
"So where is your stupid sister anyway?" Jen asked.
"Well she's sitting a few tables away and she's not stupid Jen. If she was stupid then she couldn't have done the things she did to you lot." Gabriella said, Jen just nodded. Just then Chanel walked up behind her sister.
"Did Mrs Janis tell you the good news then?" Chanel said whilst smirking. Gabriella turned around to face her sister.
"What are you taking about?" Gabriella asked.
"Well Mrs Janis was going to give Martha the lead but somehow she got convinced into giving you the lead instead." Chanel said whilst blowing on her nails.
"So you're the reason M got kicked off!" Gabriella said standing up.
"Oops I didn't mean for that to happen…yeah right." Chanel said, her smirk getting bigger and bigger.
"Brie leave it. She's just trying to get to you." Troy said. He took Gabriella's handed and made her sit down. Chanel gave her twin a glare.
"So now you have the showcase and Troy. Wow that is so unfair." Chanel said. Gabriella glared at her sister.
"We're just friends okay." She responded.
"Just friends? Oh but this morning you said that you were going out. Wow wait till Jake hears about this. He'll be over the moon. Then you can go out with him and leave Troy alone." Chanel said. This time Troy stood up.
"Yeah we are just friends but that doesn't mean I'm going to let Jake get his hands on her. And another thing, I won't leave Brie for shit." Troy said. Gabriella looked up at her best friend, he never swore, not once. Only when something had really ticked him off, she was guessing that something was Chanel.
"Okay that's it!" Jen said standing up. "I've had just about enough of you Chanel." Jen announced.
"You come to East High thinking that you can take over. Well I think not! Everyone here has their own free will and we encourage them to use it. Each and every single one of you pathetic plans have backfired. Sharpay is defo the president of the drama club again. Taylor is back on the Scholastic Decathlon team. Martha is no doubt going to return to the dance club. And Gabriella, well she'd exceeding in all areas. Troy is still by her side and there is nothing you can do to change that. You need to get a life missy and I suggest you get one pronto!" Jen exclaimed. Chanel just stared at her.
"I don't know who YOU think you are telling me what I can or cannot do. My life is great you know. I'm just messing you lot up for the fun of it. Do you think I care about my sister and her little friends! No! Maybe I used to give a damn about her when she was small and I didn't know any better. But now I'd rather see her dead!" Chanel cried. Gabriella gasped, hurt by her sister's words.
"Shut up Chanel and just get lost!" Troy yelled at her.
"You know what Chanel, you've had your fun and games, now just get lost because we aren't going to take any of your crap anymore." Taylor said getting out of her seat.
"Yeah just go grab a life and stop trying to ruin someone else's." Chad said standing by his girl.
"You've made Gabi cry a lot and she's had to endure a lot of pain because of you! Do you think that's right? Do you think that you're doing something noble by causing your own sister pain! Do you think your mom will be proud of you? Doing stuff like this to your sister! I think she'd turn over in her grave if she knew that you were doing these things." Troy was the last to speak. After that no one spoke. Gabriella had no expression on her face. Chanel was near to tears. The atmosphere was tense.
"You didn't have to mention my mother." Chanel said in a low, cold voice. A teardrop rolled down her face. She turned away and walked out.
"She's right Troy, you didn't have to mention her." Gabriella said, she turned and ran after her sister.
"BRIE!" Troy shouted as he ran after Gabriella.
"Maybe today isn't so perfect." Taylor said as she sat down at the table.
Ooo! Wow that was quite eventful lol. Anyway reviews are welcome and thanks to those who review and have reviewed in the past.
Until next time!
peace x
