Since Mrs. Darbus had not chosen Sharpay and Ryan for the leading roles, they were forced to help paint the props and keep the set clean. This, of course, wasn't exactly Sharpay's forte so she spent the whole time trying to devise a way to get Troy and Gabby out of the way.
She glanced over at Ryan noticing that he was dancing with the broom he was supposed to be sweeping with.
'He sure seems happy' She thought to herself. 'Maybe he doesn't mind losing as much as I do. Oh well, that'll make it easier and less suspicious if I only have to get Gabby out of the way.' Shrapay smiled to herself and started to pretend to paint when she noticed Ms. Darbus was looking her way.
"Sharpay, Ryan, go help Kelsi lift the piano onto the wheels to make it more portable." Ms. Darbus said during the after school rehersal.
"Ugh, are you kidding? I just got a manicure!" Sharpay told Ms. Darbus.
"Very well, Troy and Gabriella, please take a break from rehearsing and help Kelsi and Ryan lift the piano." Darbus instructed the two stars.
Troy and Gabriella had been rehearsing for the Twinkle Towne Musicale for the past three weeks and the play was scheduled for it's debut this Friday.
Troy walked over to the instrument and said "Ok, Ryan you and Kelsi get that side, and Gabriella will help me lift this one."
The group nodded as Gabriella said "On the count of three…One…"
Ryan leaned over to Kelsi. "Don't worry about it, I can lift this side myself, besides, you don't want to hurt your fingers. They're the real star of the show" He winked.
"Two…"
Kelsi smiled. "Thanks, but I think I can handle it." She said walking towards the piano.
"Three"
Ryan had already begun to lift his side when Kelsi got to the piano. However, Ryan had underestimated the weight of it and the instrument began to slip out of his hands. He closed his eyes as he tried to hold it but it was no use.
Ryan's eyes snapped open at the sound of a small yelp. He looked over to find Kelsi desperately trying to push the piano off her foot. He stood there, stunned until Troy pushed past him and slightly lifted the piano, enough to allow Kelsi to slip her foot out.
Gabriella ran over and helped Kelsi over to the piano bench. As Kelsi took her first step on her right foot (the one that got crushed), she winced and let out a small sound of pain while trying to fight the tears. She continued walking but had a noticeable limp.
"What have I done?" Ryan said out loud to himself.
"Oh Ryan, good going." Sharpay said, sarcastically. "But if you ask me, you should have aimed for Gabriella."
"This isn't funny, Sharpay. I could have seriously hurt her."
"So what are you doing over here, stupid! She said as she pushed him towards the piano.
Ms. Darbus was already inspecting Kelsi's foot and announced "It may be broken, dear."
Ryan was filled with guilt. "Is there anything I can do to help?"
Ms. Darbus looked him up and down. "Well, you may help her to the infirmary. Now everyone back to work." Everyone scattered back to their places.
"I am so sorry Kelsi! If there is anything I can do, please tell me."
"No sir, you've done enough already, I just need to get to the nurse."
"Sir?" Ryan asked, confused.
"Isn't that what you want me to call you."
"No! You're getting me confused with my sister, now come on, I'll take you to the nurse." He said as he began to put his arms around her and pick her up.
"Whoa there, wonder boy. I think you should take a break on trying to carry things for a while." She said, standing up, only to fall back to her seat.
"I think instead, you should try to take a break from trying to walk for a while." Ryan said to her.
"Ha ha,"she said sarcastically. "Very funny. Now can you just help me walk to the nurse?"
"Hey hey, what did I say about walking?"
"Fine." She said. "Then can you help me hobble to the nurse?"
He smiled. "That can be arranged."
Yep that's it for the first chapter… so tell me what you think. This is my first fanfic and if you guys don't like it then I won't bother to continue, but yeah it's Relsi my personal favorite. R&R please!
