A/N: Hey everyone. It's me again. It's been almost a month since I posted the fourth chapter. I would just like to say thanks for all who reviewed the last chapter. You guys rock. So on with the delay. Here is Chapter 5.


Mission Impossible

Chapter 5: Operation 3: Chemistry Partners

He looked at a bulletin board. Something caught his interest. Their Chemistry Teacher posted a note that said they will be doing a science project with a partner. This gave Ryan a brilliant idea. "This will be good." said Ryan. He immediately ran toward Kelsi's locker, hoping she would be there.


"So who do you think send you those?" Kelsi asked Sharpay.

"Zeke." Sharpay said, still gazing at the white roses. "He was the only boy that I dated that actually knew my favorite flowers."

"For the last time, Zeke is not your secret admirer." Kelsi said.

"How would you know?" Sharpay asked her.

"He's going out with Sharon." Kelsi told her.

"Oh, I forgot. He's dating that bimbo." she said, giving an evil glare.

"Sharpay? Are you okay?" Kelsi asked.

"Huh? Oh yeah. I'm just… thinking who sent me these." Sharpay said.

"You got anyone on mind?" asked Kelsi.

"No."

"Are you sure you're not thinking that maybe Tr…"

"Are you suggesting that Troy is my secret admirer, Kelsi? Do you know something that I don't?" Sharpay asked, raising her eyebrows.

"What! Of course not! I'm just saying that… maybe he wrote them." Kelsi said.

"I'm not buying it. You're hiding something. And I'm going to figure it out. One way or another." Sharpay said. "Now if you excuse me, I am going to find out who is my secret admirer." Sharpay disappeared, leaving a relieved Kelsi.

"That was close. I gotta tell Ryan that we have to be more careful. By the way, where is he?" she asked herself. "Might as well go to my locker." Kelsi walked to her locker, where she was greeted by Ryan. "Hey Ryan." she said.

"Hey Kelsi." Ryan said. "So did Sharpay like it?"

"She didn't like it, but she loved it! Only I think she is starting to get suspicious." Kelsi told him.

"I'm not worried. Anyway, Troy loved it! He is starting to actually fall in love with his secret admirer." Ryan said, grinning.

"Already. Your plan is actually working." Kelsi said, smiling at him.

"I know." Ryan said, smiling to himself. "Anyway, I think we are ready for Operation 3."

"Operation 3?" Kelsi asked, not sure of what he was talking about.

"Operation 3. You know Mrs. Cromwell?"

"Yeah, our Chemistry teacher. Why wouldn't I know her?"

"Yeah, well our class is going to have a science project." Ryan said growing anxious.

"And you are happy because?" Kelsi asked not comprehending what Ryan was talking about.

"Well in every science project, Mrs. Cromwell always assigns us partners." Ryan explained.

"Oh now I get it. But how are we going to get Mrs. Cromwell to assign Sharpay and Troy as partners?" Kelsi asked. Ryan began to think, placing his hands on his chin. After a minute, he revealed a mischievous grin.

"Don't worry about that, young Kelsi. I got that all covered." he said.


Mrs. Cromwell was in her classroom, finishing grading yesterday's exams. "There. Done." she said to herself. She then got up, and began to write the daily assignment; when all of a sudden, she heard a knock on her door. She turned around, and found that Ryan Evans was standing in her doorway. "Ah! Mr. Evans! What brings you here! Class doesn't till thirty minutes." she said, wondering why any student of hers students would come to her classroom, this early, especially Ryan Evans.

"Hello Mrs. Cromwell. Can I talk to you for a second?" asked Ryan.

"Why of course you can. I can't see why not." she said.

"Good. I was wondering... I saw the bulletin in the hallway." he said.

"Ah! Very good. And what do you want to know?" she asked.

"Well I know I haven't been doing good in this class, and I was wondering if I can have Kelsi as my science partner." he said.

"Well Kelsi is one of my better students. Are you sure she would be alright with this?" she asked him.

"Of course. After all, she is the one who suggested the idea to me." he told her.

"Really. Well in that case, you may be partners with Kelsi." she said.

"Thank you so much Mrs. Cromwell." he said. As headed out the door, Mrs. Cromwell called out. "Mr. Evans."

"Yes?"

"I'm just curious to know, but usually you team up with your sister. Who will she partner up with?" she asked.

"I'm sure she'll find someone." he said. He walked away, giggling to himself.


Sharpay walked to the classroom, hoping she wasn't late. She had been held back by Ms. Darbus. The two had a conversation about whether or not the Wizard of Oz or Wicked should be the next musicale.

Ring. Ring.

"Crap. I guess I am late." she said. Once she stepped in the room, she was greeted by Mrs. Cromwell's voice. "Ah! Miss Evans! Glad you could join us." she said.

"I'm sorry Mrs. Cromwell, it's just that…"

"No need to explain. Just remember that if you are late tomorrow, I will have to give you a detention." she told Sharpay.

"Yes. Mrs. Cromwell.' Sharpay said. She immediately walk to her seat, which was next to her brother's.

"Why were you late?" Ryan asked.

"Ms. Darbus held me back. We were…"

"Miss. Evans! You were late to my class, and now you are talking. Maybe I should give you that detention right now." she said, raising her eyebrows.

"I'll be quiet." Sharpay said. She then gave a glare to Ryan, who immediately looked away.

"Now Miss Evans. Before you rudely interrupted me, I was explaining everyone about the science project. You can do it on anything that we learned so far through the course. You will need to show your experiment, or model, a poster, a 5-page paper on your subject, and a 5-minute presentation. It will be due in the end of the month. Now you will have the remainder of the period to choose your partner, and discuss your topic. Now, begin." she said. Chairs and students moved around, everyone trying to pick the smart kids or best friends. Sharpay turned to Ryan.

"So Ryan, I was thinking we should…" but she was cut off shortly by her brother's voice.

"Sorry Shar, but I am partnering up with someone else." he said.

"And who is that?" she asked, a tone of anger in her voice.

"Kelsi." he said.

"Just great." she mumbled.

"I'm sorry Shar. But I need to get a really good grade to pass. Please don't be mad." he told her.

"I'm not mad. I understand. I'll just find someone else." she assured him.

"Thanks Shar. See ya at lunch." he said. He disappeared, leaving Sharpay by herself. She began to search for someone who didn't have a partner. No luck. She then saw a boy in the corner.

"Perfect." she said. She walked up to the boy. She noticed that he had his head down, his messy brown hair was all that she could see. She had no idea who the boy was, but he was the only person who did not have a partner. "Um hi. I was wondering if you have a partner." she said. The boy looked up. Both of them were horrified at who the other one was.


"Now you will have the remainder of the period to choose your partner, and discuss your topic. Now, begin." Mrs. Cromwell said. Troy was sitting in the back of the room. He could see everyone getting up and frantically looking for a partner. He didn't feel like getting up, so he decided to just let someone ask him. Even if it was someone he never me. He looked around, and saw that Sharpay and Ryan were talking. "The two are obviously going to be partners" he thought to himself. He decided to rest his head on the desk. As he was thinking of who could possibly be his secret admirer. He heard a voice.

"Um hi. I was wondering if you have a partner." the voice said. He knew it was a girl. That voice was familiar, yet he had no idea who it was. He decided to see who it was. He gazed at a blonde girls who was wearing a white turtleneck with a faux fur vest, a pair of Calvin Klein jeans, a Dooney and Bourke handbag, and Gucci sandals. He knew who it was. It seemed that the girl and him had the same horrified expression on their face.

"Ah, Mr. Bolton and Miss Evans. It seems that you two will be partners.
