"It's over. Happy?" Sharpay asked.
"Yes, although, we have to do it again tomorrow, too." Jacen said.
"I'll see you outside." Sharpay walked out of his dressing room. Jacen changed into normal clothes and yawned. He was tired, but he was gonna have to stay up another few hours for the after party. He walked out of the dressing room with his backpack and walked out on stage. He walked through the curtains and jumped off the stage. He walked over to Troy and Gabriella.
"Hey Jacen. You did a great job." Gabriella said.
"Thanks. You did, too."
"So, what's next on our agenda?" Troy said.
"After party?" Gabriella said.
"After party? What after party?" Mrs. Bolton asked.
"One of the guys is having a party in like a half hour." Troy said.
"So, can we go?" Jacen asked.
"Sure. Be back by one, though."
"OK. Well, you two let's go mingle." The three of them walked up and down the aisles saying hi to people. Until, they ran into Chad.
"You did great." Chad said.
"Thanks." Troy, Gabriella, and Jacen said, simultaneously. They all looked at each other as if to say he was talking to me.
"So, you guys going to the after party?" Taylor asked.
"Yeah. You wanna go?" Troy asked.
"Yeah. Sounds cool." Chad said.
"We're leaving in like ten minutes."
-------------------------------------------------
"Hey Jacen! Paul wants you onstage." Sharpay said.
"Why?"
"I don't know."
"OK. But afterward, I need to talk to you." Jacen ran on the stage in Paul's huge den. Paul was a rich kid, sort of like Sharpay and Ryan. His house was huge and if you'd never been there, you could've gotten lost.
"Here he is. Jacen has promised to sing us a song."
"When did I say I promise to sing a song?"
"Just now." The other kids at the party laughed.
"Oh, I can't believe I fell for that. I guess I'm singing then." Paul handed Jacen the headset. Jacen turned it off so no one could hear what he was saying to Paul. He turned it back on, as Paul put a CD into the player. He put on the song Jacen had chosen and turned up the volume on the surround sound.
Verse 1:
Girl what you want... Big chips is it?

The guest applauded.
"I didn't ask you to dance too."
"Well, you just got a show. Alright, party on people." Jacen took off the headset and walked off stage over to Sharpay.
"You just made up that whole dance, didn't you?" she asked.
"Yes. Did you like it?"
"Yeah. It was OK." Jacen sniggered. "So, you wanted to talk to me, so shoot."
"OK. I was wondering if you'd like to go out with me. Like on a date." Sharpay took a deep breath. She circled around Jacen as if to check him out. Jacen's eyes followed her in confusion. "What are you doing?" Sharpay didn't answer. "Listen, you can check me out all you want," Jacen grabbed Sharpay and pulled her closer to him, "but eventually, you'll have to give me an answer."
"Yes." Sharpay answered.
"Yes?" Jacen asked. Sharpay kissed him gently and then looked him in the eye.
"Yes."
"Well, I guess our work here is done." Troy said, as he, Gabriella, Chad, and Taylor watched Sharpay kiss Jacen. They all chuckled and went back to partying.
