Disclaimer: I do not own the High School Musical cast… But if Lucas Grabeel is for sale, someone let me know! I also own Sara Bolton and her friends…
Author's Note: I hope you guys like it so far… I have this entire week off of school, so expect more updates! There's a song in this chapter. P
Okay, I realize that I'm too not-lazy to just type the lyrics and who says them, I haven't seen the movie in a while, so I'm doing my own spin-off of the choreography. But the words are mostly the same.
You Wouldn't See It Coming
Chapter Four
"You got out of telling your dad again?" Nichole asked me, the three of us and the rest of the drama group were sitting at our lunch table in the balcony.
I nodded, "And I have Troy to thank for that."
"How?" Ryan asked me, he was sitting to the left of me, and Nichole was to my right.
I smiled, "I have my ways."
In a vicious rage, Sharpay stormed up to the table, "We can't have Troy Bolton in this show!" She exclaimed. "Him and that Montez girl have absolutely no idea what goes on in show business!"
Ryan looked at his sister, "Well how are we going to keep him out?" He asked, pure confusion drowning his voice.
She was about to respond, when one of Troy's basketball buddies, Zeke, began to say something, the whole cafeteria went silent as he spoke, actually… as he sang?
"You can bet, there's nothin' but net, when I am in a zone and on a roll. But I've got a confession my own secret obsession and it's making me lose control." He was standing on the table.
The jocks all looked at him, "Everybody, gather round!"
Zeke looked at all his friends surrounding him, "Well if Troy can tell his secret, I can tell mine. I bake."
Chad's face twisted in disgust, "What?"
Zeke smiled as he responded, "I love to bake! Strudels, scones, even apple pandowdy."
The jocks and cheerleaders looked extremely disgusted, "Not another sound!"
As they all surrounded him Zeke shouted out, "Someday I hope to make the perfect crème brulee!"
"No, no, no, nooooooooooo, no, no, no! Stick to the stuff you know, if you wanna be cool, follow one simple rule… Don't mess with the flow, no no, stick to the status quo!" The jocks circled Zeke.
Everyone's focus turned to the nerds and geeks, as some girl named Martha burst out in the same way Zeke had, "Look at me and what do you see? Intelligence beyond compare! But inside I am stirring, something strange is occurring! It's a secret I need to share!"
"Open up dig way down deep!" The brainiacs cried out when she made her exclamation.
"Hip hop is my passion! I love to pop and lock and jam and break!"
"Is that even legal?" Another one asked, as if distraught by the thought.
"Not another peep!"
Martha seemed annoyed by her friends, "It's only dancing! Sometimes, I think it's cooler than homework!"
"No, no, no, noooooooooo, no, no, no! Stick to the stuff you know! It is better by far, to keep things as they are! Don't mess with the flow, no no, stick to the status quo!"
This was getting to weird, now everyone's attention was focused on the skaters, as one of them, I think his name was Cory, shouted out, "Listen well, I'm ready to tell about a need that I cannot deny! Dude, there's no explanation, for this awesome sensation, but I'm ready to let it fly!"
"Speak your mind and you'll be heard!"
"Alright, if Troy wants to be a singer, then I'm coming clean… I play the cello!"
Some other guy nodded, "Awesome… What is it?"
Cory ran his fingers across his stomach as though playing an instrument, the other guy looked at him, "A saw?"
Cory shook his head, "No! It's like… a giant violin!"
"Not another word!"
The other guy looked at Cory, "Do you have to wear a costume?"
Cory smirked, "Coat and tie!"
"No, no, no, nooooooooooo, no, no, no! Stick to the stuff you know, if you wanna be cool, follow one simple rule… Don't mess with the flow, no no, stick to the status quo!" The skaters all sang.
The entire cafeteria burst into song, except for our table, "No, no, no, noooooooooo, no, no, no! Stick to the stuff you know! It is better by far, to keep things as they are! Don't mess with the flow, no no, stick to the status quo!"
Sharpay and Ryan stood up, looking at each other, then Sharpay began to sing, "This is not what I want, this is not what I planned! And I just gotta say, I do not understand. Something is really…"
Ryan cut her off, "Something's not right!"
Sharpay glared at him, "Really wrong!"
They both looked at each other, "And we gotta get things back where they belong! We can do it!"
Cory stood up and shouted out, "Gotta play!"
The skaters looked at him, "Stick with what you know!"
Sharpay and Ryan walked down the stairs, "We can do it!"
Martha jumped up, "Hip hop hooray!"
"She has got to go!" The brainiacs sang in unison.
"We can do it!" Sharpay and Ryan continued to head down the stairs.
"Crème brulee!" Zeke exclaimed, standing on top of the jock table.
Chad and the others glared at him, "Keep your voice down low!"
Everyone but us, Zeke, Martha, and Cory began to sing, "Not another peep! No! Not another word! No! Not another sound! No!"
Sharpay jumped down the last three stairs, "EVERYBODY QUIET!"
Gabriella and Taylor walked in, "Why is everybody staring at you?" Gabriella asked her best friend.
Taylor's reply was short and sweet, "Not me, you."
Gabriella's eyes grew wide as I smirked, "Because of the callbacks? I can't have people staring at me! I really can't!"
The whole cafeteria burst out into song again, "Noooooooooooooo, no, no, no, stick to the stuff you know! If you want to be cool, follow one simple rule: don't mess with the flow, oh no. Stick to the status quooooooooooooo! No, no, no, stick to the stuff you know! It is better by far to keep things as they are! Don't mess with the flow, no no!
Stick to the status, stick to the status, stick to the status quo!"
Jodie looked at me as Darbuss entered the room, "What just happened?"
I shook my head, as Sharpay angrily pointed to Gabriella and shouted inaudibly. "I have no clue…"
"Full school unity?" Nichole suggested, looking at the now-mingling groups.
I shook my head again, "It can't be, not with those lyrics!"
Nichole looked down over the edge of the balcony, "Then you aren't looking at the same scene I'm looking at. Come over here."
"The skater dudes are mingling!" I heard Chad shout to Troy, "And it's all because of your… singing thing!" I walked over to the balcony edge, next to Nichole, and I saw Chad turn his head suspiciously, "And Zeke is BAKING!"
I laughed as Ryan and Sharpay walked back up to us, "What was that about?" Jodie asked the twins.
Sharpay shrugged, "Let's just hope the entire school doesn't try out for the musical now." She muttered.
---
Ryan and I were sitting on the front steps of the school after classes and his rehearsal. Sharpay had ended it early, because she wasn't feeling good. She had gone home, and I had stayed again, wondering how they were doing.
Ryan was holding onto my hand, "Lunch was weird today…" He said, looking into my eyes.
"And we've gone through some pretty weird stuff…" I replied, laughing.
He smiled, "Yeah, including throwing shoes at the door to get rid of older brothers." He said, smiling and tickling my side.
I squirmed as he continued to tickle me, "Ryan!" I giggled, as I came closer to him.
He stopped tickling me and put his arm around me, "Sara!" He mimicked, in the exact tone I had just used.
We both laughed as we hugged on the steps. That was when I heard someone from the doorframe.
"Nothing?"
Ryan and I turned around, and the body we saw in the doorframe was the one person that neither of us would have expected it to be.
I was shocked when I decided who it was going to be. So I highly doubt you can figure it out. Unless you think weirdly. But it is not a made-up, so if you want to guess, be my guest!
