Ughh, Sorry about that guys! i kinda screwed up chapter 4 without realizing it.. i was typing it and then it got erased, so i just redid it as best i could, annd i didn't realize i left out Kelsie reading the note from her locker. Soo, i kinda had to change it up a bit, So a lot of the things that i was planning on making happen won't happen..i think... anywhoo, thanks to some of your guys' reviews who were talking about kelsie's note, i realized that i left it out, and i prolly would've forgot about it.


The girls were downstairs again, and watching TV and eating pizza. Then Gabriella jumped off the couch, ran to her room, and back downstairs. The girls gave her a weird look.

"What the heck Gabby? That was all random.."

"Oh, Sorry, I just remembered something,here Kels!" she said giving her a piece of paper.. "I found it after you guys went home to get your things, and it was on the floor where you set your backpack down, so i assumed it was yours but I wasn't sure since theres no name and i didn't want to be rude and read it since it may be personal."

"Oh Thanks Gabby! No worries it's not personal, just one of Darbus' "suggestions" or so she calls it. They're kinda getting annoying.." She said trailing off as she opened the letter. "See I told you..this one just says that i should add another duet betweens act 1 scene 2 and 3." Kelsie put the paper back into her pocket..

"Hmm, I think it would actually be cute if you did add a duet there." Sharpay said.. "I remember reading the script, it was kinda plain there.."

Kelsie just shrugged and they just watched TV.


The guys were roaming the mall, and decided to go to the arcade.

"Hey Ryan wanna play Time Crisis 3?" Troy asked.

"Sure." They inserted their money and played. They hadn't noticed that Zeke, Jason, and Chad had disappeared after a few minutes. The three headed back into the mall, they all decided that they would buy something for the girls, including Gabriella. They came up with the idea since they all agreed that Troy wouldn't make a move anytime soon, so they thought they'd help him. The three went into Claire's and were clueless of what to buy.

"What do we get them?" Chad asked looking at all the jewelry on the wall..

"I don't know!" Jason said..

"Excuse me, do you think you could help us out?" Zeke asked an associate. "We need help looking for presents for our uh..friends..that are girls?"

"Um what he means, is that we're planning on asking them out, and we wanted to get them gifts.." Jason cleared things.

"Oh, Okay, sure. Hmm.. can you tell me anything about them? because that would help" The worker said.

"Uhh, they're all best friends!" Chad said.

"okay.. hm. How about these?" She pulled out some lockets from the back room that were still in a box.." They're not gonna go on the shelves for a few more months, but this sounds like a special occasion" She smiled. The three guys looked at each other an smiled.

"We'll take em!" they all said together. The woman started to pull out three when Chad interupted her.

"Well we actually need four. One for our other friend to give to a girl." Chad said remembering about Troy.

"Great, we have four different ones, the all have different color gems. Red, Light Blue, Lavender, and Pink"

"Wow, how scary, those are their favorite colors" Zeke said astonished.

"They're $15.00 already including tax just to let you guys know since we're not supposed to be selling these yet. But I'm the manager here, so yeah. I just charged you guys a little over, is that alright?"

"Yeah that's fine." They guys said. They paid for the lockets and left.

"So when are we gonna give it to them?" Jason asked.

"How about Tuesday, when we get back to school?" Zeke suggested.

"Sounds good to me.." Chad said. "That'll give us time to put something inside and wrap them." Then they headed back to the arcade.

"Hey where'd you guys go?" Troy and Ryan were were sitting outside of the arcade, and Ryan noticed the bags fom Claire's.

"Haha, you guys went to go shop at Claire's!" Ryan said laughing and Troy joined in.

"Haha why'd you guys go there?" Troy said

"Well, we kinda bought stuff for the girls" Jason confessed

"Yeah we even bought one for you to give to Gabby.." Chad added.

"What!"

"Dude, you know you like her."

"So what, she doesn't seem interested" Troy said..

"Maybe she wold be, if she saw that you were too.." Chad said

"Anyways let's get back to my house, it's kinda getting boring here, and the mall closes early today." the guys left, this timeRyan rode with Zeke, and Jason, Chad, and Troy rode together.

"Man, I gotta go get gas, I'm almost at empty.. Can you guys call Zeke&Ryan and let them know I'ma stop at the gas station?" Jason said. Chad got his cell phone out and told the guys.


Jason went inside to pay for the gas, he reached into his pocket and pulled out what he thought was money.. And looked at it in shock.. It was the letter he was supposed to drop in her locker.. He quickly paid for the gas and left to the pump. Man! I can't believe i did that! Argh. I wasn't paying attention to what piece of paper i slipped in! Ugh, I just wrote her name on it without even checking! Jason had written Kelsie's not on half a sheet of paper, and on the other half was his homework from his math class.. So the note in her locker only said To Kelsie on the out side, Pg. 299 # 2-64 even.


Chadwas trying to get away from the conversation he and Troy were having. Zeke and Ryan got Troy's spare hidden key and watched TV after Troy told them they could. It was a quiet ride on the way home from the gas station until Troy broke the silence.

"So, what did you guys buy for me to give to Gabby?"

"A locket, The one for Gabby has a red gem on the heart. It matches the rest of the girls' and suprisingly they came in their favorite colors, we were all planning to suprise the girls with them at school on Tuesday.." Chad replied nervously..

"Oh. That's cool. So I guess since you guys already bought it, I should give it to her then, I mean, since the all the other girls are gonna have one, she should too.."

"Good you owe me 15 bucks man."

"Whaat!" Troy said shocked

"Hey man, these babies don't come out for a while, the store manager hooked us up so she charged us a little extra."

"Fine, but at least it's for Gabby.." He pouted.

"So does this mean you're finally gonna make a move?" Jason asked as he was pulling into Troy's driveway.

"You know, I've actually been thinking about it for a while. I kinda have it planned out almost.."


Meanwhile, the four girls had gone back to Gabriella's room, Kelsie was helping Sharpay with more homework and studying, while Taylor was sitting on Gabriella's bed watchinga new movie on tv. Gabriella was laying next to Taylor. She had started watching the movie and gradually fell asleep. The girls saw that she had fallen asleep, and didn't bother to wake her up because they knew she was tired from staying up late the night before, studying for a test. They figured they should let her sleep since they weren't gonna leave until 11:30ish. Eventually they all fell asleep from boredom. Taylor woke up, and set Gabriella's alarm to 9:00 just in case they didn't wake up before that. It was now 6:00 pm.
The guys walked into Troys house to find Ryan and Zeke on the couches. They were watching basketball, and Zeke was telling him about some of the players.

"So what are you planning on doing then?" Chad was asking as they walked into the house. Zeke turned around

"Plan for what?" Zeke asked

"Troy's finally gonna make the move!" Jason said as he sat down next to Ryan.

"Finally we don't have to talk about it in secrecy.." Ryan sighed with relief

"What? You mean that you guys have been talking about this behind my back?"

"Yeah," Chad admitted. "But anyhow, what are you gonna do man?"

"Well, I was just gonna ask her if she wanted to go out sometime over the weekend.." Troy said.

"How?" Zeke asked.

"I don't know yet. I kinda wanted it to be nice, you know how girls are. I'll come up with something before the weekend is over."


Time passed by. And Gabby's alarm went off. The girls woke up to Gabriella's mom walking into the room to turn off the blasting stereo off. She shook them andwoke them up. The girls got up and fell back asleep, so Mrs. Montez decided to let them sleep and wake them up in an hour. The hour passed and the girls still didn't want to wake up, so Mrs. Montez just decided to put the alarm on for them in 30 minutes, and she headed off for bed, leaving a note for Gabriella and the girls to not forget to lock the door on their way out & to call if they needed anything. The guys had fallen asleep as well. But woke up around 9pm. They came up with a plan, and headed out.

"Shhhhhh. You're so loud!"

"Exactly why are we doing this?" Ryan asked.

"I don't know." Jason said.

"For fun you guys! Geez, would you rather sit and be bored?" Chad asked. Ryan and Jason shook their heads. Troy was already up on Gabriella's balcony, whispering to the guys the be quiet. Zeke was making his way up. Then the rest of the guys did as well. The saw the girls sleeping as the lights were slightly dim. Fortunately, the balcony door was still unlocked from when Sharpay had gone out earlier.

Troy told them to stay outside, knowing that the other guys wouldn't be able to be quiet. He crept over to Gabriella's bed and looked at her as she slept. He leaned in closer.. and started to sing softly "The Start Of Something New," signaling the guys to come in quietly with his hands behind his back. Jason went directly to Kelsie's hat on Gabriella's deskplacing thecorrect note on top this time, knowing that she would see it on her hat.

He was still serenading her as she slept. He started to see Gabriella smile. Taylor started to move, and her eyes slowly opened. Chad was face to face with her. Chad put hisfinger over his lips, and Taylor understood, andmouthed "ThankYou!" as she pointed to the roses and balloons, Chad whispered, "I'll talk to you about it later..". By then everyonewas awake except for Gabriella. Troy finished the song, and kissed her forehead. And the guys told the girls that they would see them later because they didn't want to wake her.. so they left, this time through the front door.

Taylor, Kelsie, and Sharpay, gathered on the otherside of Gabriella's room and started talking about how sweet that was of Troy.. Then Kelsie pointed at Gabriella who was waking up, still with a smile.. She finally got up and saw the girls awake.

"How long?" Gabriella asked rubbing her eyes.

"Uhh, you fell asleep around 5ish I think, and then we were all asleep, then I remember you mom waking us up, and then we went BACK to sleep, and then yeahh its almost 10:30 now." Taylor explained

"Oh. How long have you guys been up?"

"Not that long" Sharpay said.

"Hey, were you guys playing the song: "The Start Of Something New"?" Gabriella asked, walking over to the girls..

"Nope." They all said smiling..

"Weird, I swear, I heard.." She trailed off.. Troy.. she thought.
