Chapter 6
If Troy Bolton is planning on embarrassing me then I'll kill him. Sharpay thought while walking up towards the stage. She was just staring Troy down with an icy glare and he just stood there with a happy grin plastered on his face.
When she reached the stage Troy pulled on her hand and looked towards the audience, still holding her hand.
"Now everyone, you're probably all wondering why I've asked Sharpay to join me on stage, right?"
A bunch of "yeas" and "of courses" was heard all through out the audoturium.
"Well," He started then took a glance at an angry and frustrated Sharpay, "Yesterday Miss Evans here lost a bet with me. Now I wont tell you how or what happened but now she will pay the consequences of losing the bet."
"And I know she knows what I'm talking about." He said directly looking at Sharpay.
Sharpay leaned in to Troy and whispered in his hear, "Um…what the heck am I supposed to sing? You sort of caught me of guard here."
Slightly laughing, "Well that was the point. What's the fun in it if you were totally prepared? Now go and do what you do best, well one of the things you do best." He said referring to her great basketball skills.
"Everybody, please give a round of applause for Sharpay Evans who will be singing you a song of her choice." Letting go of her hand he handed her the microphone and quietly said while walking off stage, "Now it's my turn to wish you luck!" And with that he was gone and going back to his seat.
"Troy, What did she do to lose the bet? And when did this happen?" Chad said.
"Guys don't worry about it just listen to her sing." Troy shot back.
Meanwhile on the stage with the spotlight on her, "Umm, well as you can tell I'm really not prepared for this so I'm just gonna sing the only song I can think of to remember at the moment. Note to self, Kill Bolton for trying to embarrass me in front of half the school!
"So I bet some of you know this song and I know it's kinda cheesy but it was my favorite movie when I was little so here we go."
There you see her sitting there across the way
She don't got a lot to say but there's something about her
And you don't know why but you're dying to try you wanna
Kiss the girl
Yes you want her look at her you know you do
It's possible she wants you too there's just one way to ask her
You don't say a word not a single go on and
Kiss the girl
In the audience Troy was in a daze while she was singing. He felt like the song was about him and the blonde girl singing. Since when did I wanna kiss Sharpay?
To her surprise everyone loved Sharpay's song choice and she was saved by the bell which meant free period was over…. and it also woke Troy from his trance.
"Oh my gosh Sharpay! That was great!" Gabby said running and giving her friend a huge hug.
"Gabby…cant….breathe!" Sharpay said.
Letting go of her, "Sorry! I was just so happy we got to hear you sing!"
Throwing an arm around her, "Yea little sis, you were great it's a shame you're not doing the musical with us."
"Yea well I'm gonna miss it but I'm glad I'm giving basketball a shot." She said then put her hand over her mouth and mentally kicking herself for what she just said.
They all stopped and it was dead silent which felt like decades to Sharpay.
Ryan was the first to speak, "Um, Shar I know you're my sister and I love you and all but you can't play basketball."
"Why's that? Because I've never played, or is it because you've never seen me play?" Sharpay said as calmly as she possibly could.
"Well both. Have you even touched a basketball?"
Speaking up, "Actually she can play and she is good, really good. That's why she sang, we played a game of one on one yesterday and she lost, but barely. She was kicking my butt." Troy admitted.
"Oh yea, like Sharpay could really almost beat our best player on the Varsity basketball squad." Taylor said with sarcasm.
"Um, yea she did." Chad said which caused confused looks from everyone but especially Troy and Sharpay. Catching on to their looks he continued. "Well yesterday Troy mentioned he was gonna go in the gym to shoot some hoops so I thought I'd join him but was surprised to see Sharpay making some baskets let alone playing basketball."
"How come we didn't see you?" Troy asked his best friend.
"I was hiding behind the bleachers, I didn't want to interrupt the two of you palying hoops and flirting and all."
All defensive, "We were not flirting! Troy just saw me and thought he could help me."
Gabriella spoke up, "Well I guess there's just one thing left to do now."
"What's that" Said Ryan.
"Wish her luck! Duh!" And with that the gang gave her a group hug.
I know that wasn't the greatest chapter. Next is basketball tryouts and maybe some sparks for all you Troypay fans out there. If anyone has any ideas or suggestions about what they want to happen just review and tell me! Thanks again for reading!
