HSM3: Senior Year
- Chapter 14: Red, White and Gold & Rival Game Day-
Another school week/day. Another school Monday for the teenagers of East High School, but today wasn't just any school day for the student body of E.H.S. today was the Varsity volleyball home game against West High Nights, so that meant show your school spirit and wildcat pride and that's just what everyone (especially the volley girls) were going to do.
That morning, Gabriella woke up at five o'clock and grabbed her outfit before she dragged her sleepy self into her bathroom to take a nice hot and refreshing shower.
Thirty minutes later, Gabriella walked out of her bathroom dressed in a set of red and white tie-dyed knee high socks, a pair of white fleece short shorts that said 'Wildcats' in gold glitter lettering across the butt; a white thin strap cami; and a red zip up jacket that was zipped up to just underneath her breasts and it had 'Montez 14' on the back of it with two thin red stripes going down both arms. Her hair was in two low pony tails with red, white and gold striped hair ties and little ringlets let out to frame her angelic face, she had on red gold glitter eye shadow sparkles eye shadow on, clear with gold sparkle and vanilla flavored lip gloss on her lips, in her ears red rhinestoned teardrop earrings from Charlotte Russe, a set of ten gold bangles on her right wrist from Charlotte Russe, a gold layered chain necklace from Charlotte Russe, and on her feet were a pair of black with white stripe women's adilette adidas slides.
Gabriella then skipped into her closet grabbed her book bag and then flopped onto her bed to study for her tests that she had today.
At six forty five, Gabriella finished eating breakfast with her parents and ran upstairs to grab her book bag and her tote before she said goodbye to her parents kissing each on the cheek and hugging each tightly. Walking…well, okay more like running she ran out the front door and straight for Troy who was standing against his car. Smiling at each other she dropped her book bag and tote before she ran at him and he caught her as her legs wrapped around his waist and her arms around his neck and they shared a passionate kiss.
"Morning MY beautiful baby Brie." Troy told her with a smile before he pecked her again.
"Morning MY handsome sexy Wildcat." Gabriella said after they pulled away before she pecked him again on the lips which turned into a passionate make out session.
"Troy please get your tongue out of my daughter's mouth!" Greg told Troy half joking and half serious as he and Inez walked out of the front door both ready for work and walked to the sidewalk where Jack and Lucille where watching the passionately making out couple against Troy's car.
"And Gabriella please remove your tongue from my son's mouth." Jack added half serious and more joking as the wives just looked at each other and rolled their eyes with a smile. Groaning and not wanting to Gabriella and Troy pulled away, glared at their parents who laughed and then Troy held the passenger door open for Gabriella who smiled as a thank you and pecked his lips before she got in and buckled up her seat belt as he shut the door and jogged over to the driver's side and got in, buckling up and starting the car up and carefully pulled into the road and started driving toward Starbucks were they were to meet with their friends.
After Troy parked his car in between Chad's and Zeke's, he and Gabriella got out before he locked the doors and then they walked into Starbucks, fingers laced and smiles on their faces.
"Hey guys!" Troy said as Gabriella hugged and smiled at the girls who where just like her except each of their zip up jackets had their numbers and last name on the back of them.
"Hey Gabriella, what about us?!" The boys asked which made the girls and Troy laugh and then smile at Gabriella who hugged each one after rolling her eyes at them.
Smiling they all sat down around the normal table at Starbucks, smiling Sharpay said, "Here superstar and Brie-Ella, we got your usuals."
"Thanks Sharpay! Thanks guys!" They replied their fingers laced and resting on Gabriella's left knee underneath the table.
"No problem." Some of them replied as others just smiled.
"So who's totally not ready for our French quiz today?" Taylor asked the ones in her French class. She smiled and nodded her head as did the other French taking wildcats did the same.
"So what's your dad making us do today?" Chad asked Troy who was taking a sip of his drink.
"He said we're running the track today. One lap since mom told him not to wear out the girls on the volleyball team today because of the game tonight." Troy replied and then added, "Which they will win."
"Oh West High is so totally going down!" The five girls said with smiles causing the boys to laugh at them.
"Well, guys as much as I hate to wreck this fun, we need to get to school before we're late." Taylor said and everyone agreed and stood up together, all walking out the doors and to their cars, Taylor getting in Chad's car, Sharpay getting in Zeke's car, Martha getting in Ryan's car, Kelsi getting in Jason's car and of course Gabriella getting in Troy's car. They all pulled out and headed to East High for another day of school.
-Drama Class-
"Hey Gabriella, Troy, come here for a second!" Kelsi who was sitting at the piano in the theater said.
Smiling Troy and Gabriella walked up on stage and over to Kelsi who smiled at them.
"What's up Kelsi?" Troy asked her.
"Do you think you guys could sing this song for me so that way I can hear how it sounds. Please?" Kelsi asked them.
After a few seconds, Troy and Gabriella nodded and then grabbed a copy of Kelsi's lyrics and began to sing when Kelsi gave them their cue.

"Bravo! Brava! Bolton, Montez, congratulations!" Ms. Darbus told them with a smile as Kelsi squealed in smiled and Troy and Gabriella each had confused looks on their faces.
"Congratulations on what?" Troy asked Ms. Darbus.
"On getting the leading roles of the new musicale." Ms. Darbus said simply like it was obvious.
"But we didn't audition." They both replied.
"Well, technically you just did." Sharpay told them with a smile.
"Huh?!" They both asked really confused.
"Today was the auditions for the leading roles for the new musical and we know you guys didn't sign up and we know that you guys probably wouldn't want to do this. BUT we just HAD to trick you guys so you didn't really know you were when you were. We wanted you guys to have them. And the best part is all of us in the group are in it!" Ryan exclaimed explaining it to them.
Surprisingly, neither Troy nor Gabriella was mad, they both just widely smiled at each other both knowing secretly they wanted to do it. And both loving the idea of having all the wildcats in it together seeing that this MIGHT be their last year together. Plus it was the Senior Show Case that was tradional at East High, all the seniors had to help or perform or/and be in it.
"So you'll do it?!" Kelsi said asking Troy and Gabriella the question that Sharpay, Ryan and Ms. Darbus wanted to know. Smiling Troy and Gabriella nodded their heads yes.
The rest of the day went in a blur for the everyone especially the varsity volleyball players. At the final bell of the school day everyone exited their classrooms, got their stuff and or put their stuff in their lockers and did what they had to after school.
"Hey guys have you seen Brie?" Troy asked the wildcats as he noticed Gabriella was missing from the group.
"Yeah, she and Sharpay are doing something for Ms. Darbus. Gabriella wanted us to tell you like Sharpay told Zeke that they will call you guys later before the game and that you are suppose to meet them their. They have some quick stuff to do before the game today." Taylor told Troy as Zeke agreed with Taylor because Sharpay told him the same thing.
"Oh, okay. Did they mention what?" Troy asked Zeke and the gang.
"Nope. All Sharpay said was that its between her and Gabriella and what goes on between those two stays with those two." Zeke replied.
"Oh." Troy said and then said goodbye to everyone before getting into his car and driving home like the others did also.
"Okay. So Troy's 18th b-day is on the 18th of this month. So we defiantly have to have a big bash." Sharpay said as she and Gabriella where sitting by the pool at Lava Springs owned by the Evans and where the Wildcats (minus Ryan and Sharpay) worked this summer.
"I already got his parents a-okay on it so we're good to go! "So I was thinking since Troy loves the Lakers we have a Lakers theme party. What do you think?" Gabriella asked Sharpay.
"I think its sweet. Where do you want to have it?" Sharpay asked as they each took a glass of offered pink lemonade and took a sip of it.
"I already cleared it with Mr. Matsui and he said we could have it in the gym of East High. We just have to care of the decorating and the cleaning up." Gabriella told Sharpay with a smile.
"God, he sure loves Troy doesn't he." Sharpay stated more like than asked.
"Just because Troy plays basketball and because he and the teams bringing in championship trophies."
"This is the last year too of Troy and team bringing it in. Well at least the seniors on the team." Sharpay said.
"Exactly."
"So is this party just gonna be close friends and family?" Sharpay asked.
"Of course. Troy was talking in September how he wanted his close friends and family only at his 18th b-day bash." Gabriella told Sharpay with a smile as they turned on their stomachs on the sun loungers, taking their laptops with them that they were typing the information on.
"Oh. My. God. Look at these. We can have these yellow tickets that you get a professional basketball, baseball or football games and use them as the invitations." Sharpay said.
"Brilliant idea, Shar-Bear. I'll start ordering them now." Gabriella said as she started to order them.
"Those look so cool, Brie-Ella!" Sharpay said as she and Gabriella looked at the example of her completed work.
"Thank you and I think so too. So they should be here in three business days so…Thursday of this week. Okay, now we need to find, yellow and purple and basketball decorations." Gabriella said and then her and Sharpay started their search for the decorations.
"We can have a picture of Troy in his basketball uniform that everyone at the party can sign their wishes to Troy on." Sharpay said.
"That's an awesome idea. We can also have one a picture of him, the team and his dad and have the b-ball boys and his dad sign their best wishes on it only. We can have a picture of the gang to sign their best wishes on…" Gabriella said.
"And we can have a picture of you and Troy for you to sign your birthday wishes and hopes for him on it." Sharpay said with a smile.
"Sweet. So all we need to do is get the pictures for them. Oh we can also get candy bars and put these personal wrappers I found around them." Gabriella said to Sharpay who leaned over to look at it. The wrapper was white with an orange bold border; on the front in each corner a basketball jersey and ball and hoop and court on it; on the center of the front it read, Getcha Head in the Game for Troy's 18th Birthday!; the ingredients read: Plenty of time on the basketball court with friends and family, some free throws, a couple of rebounds makes the party a slam dunk!; and the nutrition facts read: Total fat- Who cares? It's Troy's 18th birthday!, Sodium- Enough to make you thirty to hoop it up!, Protein- 100 percent for energy to shoot from center court!.
"Those are awesome!" Sharpay exclaimed after she looked at them.
"Thanks I just had them designed and ordered."
"I have a brilliant idea. Why don't we put all the drinks in basketball shaped and colored coolers and then the food table can have a purple metallic table skirt with a yellow table cover. Then where we have the dishes and napkins and etc. on it, we can have a yellow metallic table skirt with a purple table cover, a basketball centerpiece, orange and black napkins that read 'Troy's 18 b-day bash', orange and black plastic silver ware, purple and yellow plastic plates, purple and yellow star confetti. Like it?" Sharpay asked.
"I love it. Oh and we can have the other tables either have a purple or yellow metallic table skirting with a purple or yellow table cover, in the center can be basketball centerpieces, basketball and Lakers confetti can be on the table and then we can have frosted flutes with a basketball on it that reads 'Troy's 18th birthday party- 2008'. Like it?" Gabriella asked.
"Love it!"
"Oh and we can have basketball balloons and then purple and yellow metallic balloons. We can get a big black metallic banner and in orange writing it can read 'Troy's 18th Getcha Head in the Game B-day Bash'. On one wall we can have yellow and purple gossamer hanging on it so we have a area for pictures. On the floor surrounding it we can have basketball pillows and Lakers official basketballs."
"Love that too! Oh and we can have a bunch of basketball games since we're having the hoops out."
"Okay. And we'll make a corner for Troy's presents were around it on the wall we can have purple, yellow, orange and black glitter stars." Gabriella said.
"Love it."
"Oh and when the guests come in we can have people set up outside the closed gym doors who take the invitations to make sure they were invitied and then hand them a ticket that has their table number on it for sitting down at and either a purple, yellow or orange glow sticks."
"Sweet idea." Sharpay said.
Before Gabriella could reply Mr. Fulton and two waiters came out each holding trays with tops on them. Mr. Fulton smiled at the two and said, "Dinner is served Ms. Montez and Ms. Evans."
"Thanks Fulton. Thanks guys. This looks delicious tell the cook." Gabriella and Sharpay said as they both got up off the loungers and went over to the private villa area to eat their dinner before they had to get ready for the game.
"Derby! Vance! Over here!" Inez screamed out to Sharpay's parents as they walked into East High gym.
"Hello everyone!" They said to the group of "Wildcat" parents.
"Hello." The parents all replied and the guys all nodded their heads.
Ten minutes later the lights shut off after West High got done warming up.
"Ladies and Gentleman. East High fans! Welcome your East High Lady Wildcats Varsity Volleyball team coached by Lucille Bolton!" Jack said into the microphone since he had to do the announcing tonight because he's the athletic director.
Everyone on the East High side stood up, cheered and jumped up and down as the girls came out which they could tell by the red glow and the dark glow stick jewelry they had on for their run out and as We Will Rock You blasted through the speakers in East High Gym. They all then really cheered when they saw glow and the dark volleyballs go up and then being spiked over the net by the girls, everyone from East High trying to guess who was spiking each ball. The lights stayed off through the singing of the Nation Anthem by Gabriella and Sharpay, the only light that was on was the one on the American Flag hung on the left wall over the red with white and gold lettering banner that read 'Ya Can't Beat That Cuz We Strive To Beat Ya!'. The lights also stayed off during the peppering being done by each set of E.H girls and during the serving of the E.H. girls, all you could see were glow and the dark volleyballs going throw the air, laughing and quiet talking that you couldn't make out. Troy, Zeke, Ryan, Jason and Chad all smiled as they recognized each girls giggle.
"And now the starting line up for you East High Wildcats! Number 13- Ava Crossman-Junior, Number 8- Taylor McKessie-Senior, Number 12- Martha Cox-Senior, Number 20- Kelsi Nielsen- Senior, Number 23- Sharpay Evans- Co-Captain and Number 14, your East High Varsity captain, Gabriella Montez-Senior!" Jack said and everyone cheered as they saw each girl who had their glow and the dark warm up jackets with their glow in the dark numbers on the back run on the court and lay in the middle of the court.
"WHOSE HOUSE?!" Gabriella and Sharpay yelled through the dark gym as the starting players laid on the center of the floor, smacking their hands on the gym floor as the others on the team and Coach Bolton did it over by the chairs.
"OUR HOUSE!" The team and the East High side replied back.
"WHOSE HOUSE?!"
"OUR HOUSE!"
"OUR!"
"HOUSE!"
"OUR!"
"HOUSE!"
"LADY WILDCATS ON THREE!" Sharpay and Gabriella yelled.
"ONE, TWO, THREE! LADY WILDCATS!" The team along with Sharpay and Gabriella and the fans screamed as the girls in the middle stood up and took their warm ups off as the lights finally came on revealing each girl. Each team member had their hair in braid low pig tails with red head bands, their uniforms on, red glitter eye shadow on their eyes, clear with gold sparkled lip gloss in it on their lips and on their cheeks on each side were black war marks.
As the ref was checking to make sure each girl on the line up was on the court and in the correct position East High girls started to chant to the crowd and for them to get pumped.
"We're the Wildcats and you know what we got!"
"What do you got?" The East crowd yelled back.
"WE got a team that's hotter than hot!"
"How hot is hot?" East side yelled back.
"Bumps, sets and spiking too!" The team yelled.
"WO! WO! WO! WO!" The East crowd yelled.
"So hit the ball like the rest of us do!" The East girls said.
The ref looked at the ref on the net podium and said, "On East side number 14 is your speaking captain. On West side number 14 is your speaking captain."
The other ref nodded and then said looking at each captain, "Ready? Alright. Let the game begin. Wildcats got serve!"
While Gabriella went to the back line to start her team off for serving the girls on the bench started chanting as well as the girls (minus Gabriella) and the E.H. crowd, "O-V-E-R, Over the net," they clapped twice then said, "Serve it, Serve it. Go Gabriella!"
Gabriella did her routine for her serve and then hit the ball while it did a perfect spin in the air and over hand served it, hard, over the net and down right on the back line. Where the line judge and both refs said, "In!"
East High's volleyball team and fans went up in screams of happiness!
"You got served, ay, ay, ay!" The East girls on the court and in the seats said making West High mad.
Gabriella got the ball back and repeated the same thing. And got another point, but this time the ball dropping in the middle of the court, no West High player touching it, earning East a point and for them to do their ace cheer again making West even more mad. The game was defiantly on tonight! And everyone had a feeling that it would last until twelve that night!
Finally, the volleyball teams were on their third game with East High winning by two games, meaning that even if West won game three they would still lose since they played the best out of three games.
Kelsi smiled as set Gabriella up who got her top part of her body over the top of the net and spiked the ball straight down to the ground. No one from West High team daring to touch it because they knew it hurt.
"1,2, kaboom-boom!" The East High girls team said.
Soon later, West High hit the ball over and the East side yelled "Out!" which the ball was and then chanted, "1,2, See ya!"
"Let's go Shar-Bear! Show them what ya got girl!" Gabriella yelled to Sharpay as she went to spike on her weak side. Sharpay spiked it over the net and straight down with no one from West High blocking it or touching it.
"Boom baby!" East High said as they cheered and clapped for Sharpay's spike.
"Come on Brie! Game point!" Troy yelled through the crowd to Gabriella who went up to spike Martha's perfect set that she got to set because of Taylor's perfect bump to her.
Gabriella did as she did before and spiked the ball hard over the net and straight down earning a perfect game winning and finishing ace! The last ace of the game!
East High side erupted in cheers as the East High volleyball team won and jumped up and down on the volleyball court before they all including Lucille got around the circle in the middle of the court and laid on their stomachs to start chanting while slapping the floor, "Don't mess, don't mess, don't mess with the best cause the best don't mess! Don't fool, don't fool, don't fool with the cool cause the cool don't fool from East to West, Wildcats are the best. GOOOO Wildcats!"
