Disclaimer- I own nothing but the lap top I type this from, the ipod which gives me inspiration, and my high school musical DVD which is the only way I can get my kids at camp to listen.

The song used in this chapter is Mixtape by Butch Walker. I modified some of the genders so it would fit the story.

You say hello, inside I'm screaming I love you

In he walks, he says hello and takes everything I have not to break my Ice Queen facade. I'm a bitch, I make no excuses.

"Hey Troy", Its no secret, everyone knows I like him. I've liked him forever.

You say goodnight, in my mind
I'm sleeping next to you

Darbus busts into the room before I could even dream of deepening the conversation with Troy. We've known each other forever and I would consider him a good friend. He well I'm not even sure I want to know what he thinks of me. Ice Queen. I hear what they say, I see the fear in their eyes when they walk by me. I like it, its control. It's the one thing in my life that I can control.

You drive away from my car crash of a heart
And I don't know

The bell rings and wakes me from my contemplation. I look over to Troy to wave goodbye and notice something which I should have picked up on, he looks tired. Not tired. More than tired. Hollow. Pshh I brush away my thoughts, he's probably just having a fight with Gabriella.

But you gave me the best mixtape I have
And even all the bad songs ain't so bad
I just wish there was so much more than that
About me and you

We used to be best friends. Bet you didn't know that about the Ice Queen. But that was before it happened, before my passion and drive became twisted into attitude and heartlessness. It being the abandonment of a child, two children by their mother. My mother peaced out with her accountant when I was 11, and my father stopped coming home by the time I was 11 ½. So, I became who I am, the Ice Queen. I no longer had time for friends, even if you were Troy Bolton. No I had to become what my mother said I never could.

You talk to her, and it burns me like the sun
You talk to him, and you say that you feel like she's the one

I talk to me, but you can't hear the pain I feel
You don't know

I see you talking to Gabriella. You think you love her. You talk about it as though you do. But I know you, I know you could never be satisfied by a creature so simple. You need to be challenged. You need a girl who will make you run to your car in the pouring rain to get the sweater that you warned her not to forget. Not the one who will grin and shiver to herself. You need the girl who will keep you on you toes, who will call you on your shit. Not the girl who will silently nod and whisper her opinions. You need the girl who knows you, and I need the boy that knows me. Forget puppy love, and just remember me.

Cause you gave me the best mixtape I have
And even all the sad songs ain't so sad
I only wish that there was more than that
About me and you

It was the last birthday before my mom left, that's when I knew that we were supposed to be together. Everyone bought me expensive things trying to win my friendship, but not you, you already had that. You told me that you worked on it for a week, and that it was filled with all the songs that made you think of me. You put my favorite showtunes on it because you knew I hummed them all the time. You liked it when I softly sang songs, so you put a few of your favorite ones on there too, hoping that I would start humming them around you. And I would have, I fully planned on it. I listened to that CD every night until she left. When she walked out that door, a little piece of me left too, and when my father followed suit I was barely left with anything. I put my heart back together the only way I knew how. Stone. Cement. Pain. I was so young. No one spoke to me about it. It was the only thing I knew to do, I pushed everything but Ryan, music, and acting away. Everything including you.

Oh, don't turn around and say bye again
Yeah it crushes my head when you call me
Your friend and I'm not the same person
From back in the day in the back of the class
That you thought was gay

It was only natural for you to resent me. Losing a best friend is a two-way street of pain. But I'm still the same little girl who you would let win at horse. The same girl who stayed awake all night with you talking on walkie talkies when you had the chicken pox. I'm still in here, I know I am. Maybe I pushed you away because you could bring that little girl out. But that little girl gets hurt. Sharpay Evans, Ice Queen, does not. However times have changed, and I wouldn't mind letting that little girl show her face now and then. But what were you supposed to do, wait? And what am I supposed to do? Your friends rightfully hate me, and I think you may too.

No I can't find the words cause I lost them
The minute they fell out of my mouth
And it's love and I'm in it, so give me your lips
And just let me kiss 'em

Thud. I guess I'm not the only one wandering around school with her mind else where. Normally this isn't an issue however because people move when I walk through these halls. Umpf. I hit the floor, and then a large body hits me.

"I don't know who the hell you are, or what the hell you're doing, but if you do not get off of me this instant I will make you eat your teeth".

Its then I notice who it is, and no sooner do I realize I instantly wish I hadn't been so quick to get him off of me.

"Sorry Sharpay", a tired blushing Troy says. Blushing? Its then that I notice my disheveled skirt up and showing my underwear, yep this is totally my day. You lift me as though it was nothing and walk away before I can even yell.

The best mixtape I have
And even all the bad songs ain't so bad
I just wish there was so much more than that
About me and you
About me and you
About me and you
About me and you
About me and you
About me and you

Something's up. I knew something was wrong, but don't think I didn't notice you blushing Troy Bolton. I quickly exit school to go home and A. figure out what's wrong with Troy and B. find that damn mixtape.

Please Review, there will be more 
