Chapter 10: Last minute set-ups
Sharpay's PoV:
"What chu gonna do after school?" Troy asked me, rubbing his eyes.
"I dunno. Finish packing... and that's probably it." I replied, yawning and stretching.
"Oh I almost forgot to tell you, we're gonna meet up at my house at around 7." Troy informed me.
"Oh ok." I dismissively said, "I'll see you later, alligator!"
"In a while crocodile." said Troy.
With that I was off. I was so tired. I hardly slept a wink throughout the week. The nerves were starting to kick in and the pressure was starting to push me way over my limit. I was glad that it was our last period! It was the same with the other 7 people. Oh and I almost forgot to mention some of the people from East High that were going with Troy and me. There was that girl from her senior year, by the name of Serena and a guy from his senior year, Seth. I think that was his name. There were four people from their junior year and they were, Kelsi, me, Troy and this other person. But I didn't really catch who that other person was. And then there were two from their sophomore year, both girls and Filipinos – Jaquelyn and Shella.
As I was thinking of a way of surviving this school day, I bumped into someone. Lately I seemed to bump into a lot of people. I got up by myself and looked up at who I bumped into.
"Hi Ryan." I waved lazily.
"Hi Sharpay." He walked past me.
"Ryan, wait!" I shouted, the tiredness slowly lifting away from me.
"What?" Ryan turned around and faced me.
"Are you angry at me?" I asked.
"No. Why would I be?" He replied in a somewhat bitter voice.
"Well then why have you being avoiding me?" I asked again, just as the second bell rang.
This was true. Ever since Monday, Ryan had snobbed me. Ignoring me when I said hi, refusing to eat dinner at the same table as me, and refusing to do our chores together. There was something wrong with him and I was going to find out, despite whatever might be thrown at me. I mean, I wasn't about to leave for the rest of the year while Ryan still felt bitter-ism towards me.
"I'm not." He simply replied, "Are you done with me now?"
"No." I replied, narrowing my eyes, "Tell me Ryan. What's wrong?"
"Nothing!" His voice was starting to get louder.
"Don't shout at me."
"I wasn't."
"Gosh Ryan. I think I know why you might be feeling bitter towards me." I scoffed, fed up of him ignoring me when I did nothing wrong, "You're just jealous that I'm going to New York, and you're not!"
"What?" He looked at me with sorrowful eyes, as the third bell went. All students disappeared to their classes and I was glad the hallway was deserted.
"It's not that... It's because... Because... I'm gonna miss you!" With that he gave me a big hug.
I regretted being so mean to him without giving him a chance to speak. I hugged him back and tears filled my eyes.
"I'm sorry... It's just you're not helping. What, with all that extra pressure being thrown at me and the nervousness. You're my brother, my twin brother. We'll always be together, if not it flesh than in spirit!" Tears rolled down my cheek as I talked into his shoulder.
"I'm sorry. Just don't forget that promise that we made earlier." Ryan gave me a tight squeeze and pulled back, "And don't cry."
"Ok. Whatever." I pulled back as well and wiped the tears away, a slight smile hovering near my lips.
"Well, we gotta go, or else Miss. Leeann might give us detention!"
We ran down the hall together. He and I both knew that I was immuned from all detentions, because today was my last day in East High as a Junior. I was never going to come back to East High as a Junior. As that thought occurred the tiredness slipped back into me. We finally got to the classroom and opened the door and entered the room...
"Mr. and Miss Evans. Do you have any idea what time it is?" Miss Leeann shouted at us.
"Sorry miss." I apologized looking at my feet.
"Sorry won't do. Mr. Evans you'll serve detention. And since your sister is going away, you'll serve hers as well."
The whole class was looking back and forth and observing the argument. I rolled my eyes at Miss Leeann. I didn't think that she would see but she apparently did, since she said, "Don't make it two detentions for your brother Miss Evans."
I bit my lips, lowered my eyes and sat right in the back corner. I took my books out, tore a little from the bottom of my exercise book and grabbed a pen and started to scribble something on it. After I was done, I folded it neatly in half. I "dropped" my pen and got out of my seat to retrieve it. While I was retrieving my pen, I checked to see if anyone was looking, left the note in Ryan's sight and went back to my seat. There I watched as he read it.
"It's ok." I saw Ryan mouth after he was done.
I smiled and flashed him a thumbs up sign. Miss Leeann seems to have seen because she gave me a cold hard, long stare. I couldn't wait for the bell to go. So that I could lean on Troy's shoulder and fall asleep. But maybe it wouldn't hurt to go to sleep now... just for 10 minutes. I closed my eyes, lay my head on the table and fell asleep...
I was walking down the airport with Troy. I flipped my blonde hair back and took the sunglasses off, and rested them on my head. Everyone was clamoring for a piece of me. I smiled widely at all of the people that came to see me and welcome me. I waved at some of them, and blew kisses at some of them. Some of them were even throwing papers at me so that they could get my autograph.
"Miss EVANS!" an angry voice shouted at me.
"Thank you for coming everyone!" I stood up, startled and waved my hand.
"Were you sleeping in my class?" Miss Leeann asked.
"Uhh ... Well ... Not exactly ..." I trailed off as I sat back down.
The bell rang and came to my rescue. I made a mental note to myself to thank Mrs. Leila for ringing the bell on time. I picked up my things and shoved them in my bag. I waved at Miss Leeann and ran out of the class. I wanted to take Ryan with me but the problem was Miss Leeann was droning on and on about their major assignment, which I won't be there to do. I smiled at my fortune and sprinted faster towards my locker.
"Tr-o-oy!" I stopped and called out from the end of the hall.
I saw him look up from his locker and he gave me a smile. I felt a shudder course through my body and smiled back at him. I started to slow down and walked towards him. People were staring at me. I must've captured their attention as I shouted his name. I shrugged and waved at some.
"Aloha." I said and punched him in the arm in a playful manner.
"Hello. Are you ready to go?" Troy asked me with a yawn.
"Nup." I simply shook my head side to side.
"Look at my locker!" He bragged and opened the doors of his lockers to the fullest extent.
My eyes widened. When did Troy's locker get so clean? Well it was empty and it smelt like ...
"What did you spray?" I asked him.
"Oh ... my mom's perfume." He shrugged and took the bottle of garnet glass case from his bag.
"Your mom's gonna kill you!" I teased and scooted over to mine, put the combination in and turned the key around.
"Oh yeah!" I said cheerfully to myself.
"What do you mean oh yeah? All your stuff are still in there!" Troy lifted his eyebrows.
"I know. I'm gonna get rid of them now." I started to clean my locker.
I threw the pile of clothes on the floor, along with the pile of books. I took the pile of clothes and piled them up in my arms. I looked at Troy who was now shutting his locker door.
"Help?" I asked.
As he picked the books up I slammed my locker shut, locked it and walked out with Troy to the entrance of the school. Mr. Bolton got too busy with school and basketball so he was unable to constantly drop Troy back and forth. And his mom had a bad experience with driving so she stuck with either public transport or her husband. So my mom did the favor of driving Troy back and forth along with Ryan and me. We got to the entrance hall and there were students everywhere. They seemed to particularly excited about the coming weekend. I shrugged and narrowed my eyes, to block out some of the sun.
"Where's my mom?" I muttered to myself.
"What do you mean?" Troy asked.
"I mean, where is my mom? As in where is she?" I answered giving him an odd look.
"But she's coming later today. Remember?" He asked.
"No ..." I scrunched my face and tried to remember when she said that, "Why?"
"Ryan's dental appointment or something like that." Troy replied, yawning again.
"Oh right. Hey, how do you know that but I don't?" I nudged him.
"I don't know."
"So where are we supposed to spend the rest of the afternoon?"
Troy gasped and said, "Mr. Matsui's office!"
Then it hit me, "Our final check-ups!"
I looked at Troy, our eyes met and we knew exactly what to do.
"Run!" With that we ran towards his office.
We got to the front office and Miss Leila; let us into the principle's office. We bent down to catch our breath and realized that we still had my stuff. We chucked them to the side and sat down next to Kelsi. I tried seeing how many of the 8 were here to find that only seven were here. I raised one eyebrow.
"Is there a problem, Miss Evans?" Mr. Matsui asked.
"Ahhh ... No sir." I replied.
He gave us our tickets and a letter and explained how we would be supervised by Mr. Ellair and Miss Viola, until we got to our school. We were to meet them at the Albuquerque airport at around 12 in the noon. Then when we arrived at New York, we had to check in at the reception desk and get our room numbers and keys along with maps for the whole school. I grabbed my ticket, eagerly and started reading the ticket. I couldn't wait until tomorrow came.
"Any questions?" Mr. Matsui finally asked, after 20 minutes of droning on and on about this being a great opportunity.
"Uhm..." I raised my hand, sheepishly.
"Yes, Miss Evans."
"I'm sorry if we already went through this already, but what time is our plane?"
"It's on the ticket. 2:30 pm."
"Oh."
"Any other questions? No? Good. Well I'll be there with a couple of our faculties and students to bid you good-bye at the airport. It seems, that I'll see you then." With that we were dismissed.
Troy and I walked over to the side of the room, picked up my belongings and started to walk back towards the entrance. There were still students there, either for their extra curriculum activities or just to chill with their friends. I walked down the stairs, across the path steps and sat down on the grass. I turned around and patted the spot next to me. Troy came down the steps, across the path and sat down next to me.
Troy's PoV:
As I was about to doze off for good a horn honked two times, waking me from my much needed nap. I sighed in frustration and tiredness as I looked up. It was Mrs. Evans and she was here to pick us up. I got up, picked Sharpay's books up, helped Sharpay up and walked over to the jeep with her. I opened the door for Sharpay and she slid in, and I clambered in next to her.
"Hi Mrs. Evans." I greeted her.
"Oh, hey sweetheart. How are you doing?" Mrs. Evans greeted back.
"A little tired, but I'll live." I replied with a weak smile.
"Hi mom. Where's Ryan?" Sharpay asked her mom.
"At home." Mrs. Evans replied.
"Oh ok." Sharpay nodded.
She chucked her spare clothes on the floor of her mother's car and leaned on the window and dozed off. I followed after her and leaned on her slender shoulders. I closed my eyes and immediately fell asleep.
A little bit later...
"Troy! Wake up." A voice said to me.
My eyes fluttered open and I blinked a couple of times. I shook my head and realized that I was still in Mrs. Evans' car with Sharpay. Her books were resting on my lap. I gently put the books down on the floor and clambered out.
"Thank you Mrs. Evans. I'll be around at 6:30 to pick Sharpay up." I muttered.
"Ok dear. You just get some rest." Mrs. Evans advised me.
"Bye Sharpay." I said softly as I closed the door shut.
"Tell your mother I said hi." I heard Mrs. Evans say.
I turned back around and flashed her a thumbs up. She smiled and backed out the driveway. I went inside.
"Hello?" I said loudly, "Mom?"
"In the kitchen!" Came my mom's voice.
I walked to the kitchen. I dropped my bag on the floor and walked over to the fridge and found an apple. Anything looked delicious to me at the moment. I took it out, washed it and took a big bite.
"How was your day sweetie?" My mom asked as I sat down.
"Not so good. I was so tired I thought I would drop dead." I explained, taking another bite from my apple.
"Well, you just hang in there." My mom chuckled.
"Mom, oh yeah and don't forget that I'm going tomorrow. And they're gonna be here at around 7." I informed my mom.
"Of course I know you're going tomorrow!" My mom came over to me and ruffled my hair and gave me a hug.
"Have you finished packing?" She asked.
"Uhh...I'll see to it right away." With that I dragged my body upstairs to check once again that I packed everything on the list, Mr. Matsui gave us and more if necessary. I smiled with satisfaction and plopped on my bed. I chucked the apple and shot it in the bin. I laid my head on the pillow and as soon as my head hit that cushy pillow, my eyes shut and I was about to fall asleep when,
RING RING RING!
My phone rang and vibrated and rang some more. I rolled my eyes and checked the screen. It was Chad. I flipped my phone open and turned it on speaker.
"What do you want?" I asked.
"That's a great way to greet your best friend." Chad laughed.
"Sorry. Hi."
"Was it at your house in 7 or 8?"
"7. Why would you want to know? You always come either really early or really late. Never on time." It was my turn to laugh.
"Very funny. See you then." Chad hung up and I decided that I might as well get ready.
Sharpay's PoV:
"Sharpay honey, we're home." My mom informed me with a gently shake.
"Huh?" I woke up and lifted my head.
"We're home." My mom repeated.
"Oh." I got off the jeep and snatched my clothes off the floor, "Mommy I need help."
I watched as my mom summoned Ryan to come out and help me. He immediately came out grumbling, saying that he had a lot of homework to do before 7. I smirked and walked upstairs to my room, saying a brief hi to my dad.
"Thanks Ryan." I hugged him and shut the door behind him.
I lay down on my bed, but weirdly sleep didn't come to me. I sighed after more than 10 minutes of laying down, hopelessly trying to fall asleep. Instead I sat up, got out of my bed and got the list back out again. I had to pack a lot of stuff and a few extra. So I had one big luggage and one small luggage. I ticked off all the necessary things needed and dragged the trunk noisily downstairs.
"Oh God!" I heard Ryan shout in his room, "What can I do to deserve a little peace and quiet to do my homework?"
I laughed out loud to myself and continued on my journey.
"Oh yeah and mom, Ryan and I'm going out later at 7. We're going to Troy's." I informed my mom.
"Uh-uh. Ryan's not going until he finishes his homework."
"Oh." I said and walked back upstairs to my room.
I had to make this night special. I mean, it was my last night to spend with my friends as a East High Junior. I knew what I had to do. I walked into the bathroom and started to take a long long long, hot shower/bath. All my tiredness and stress and pressure seemed to be lifted off me. After a while I got out, and put my bathrobe on. I chose out my outfit. I decided that I was going to wear a black and white polka dot top, white cargo pants with an overcoat and my new shoes that I bought with Taylor. I put my lip gloss on, brushed my hair, dried it and then curled it. After I was done it was about 6:00-ish.
I walked out of my room and into Ryan's.
"Hey Ryan." I greeted him.
"Yeah whatever. You're in here to rub it in my face that I'm not going, Right?" He asked.
"No. I'm here to help you. I'll tell mom that you finished your work even if you haven't done it." I offered.
"No way! I want to have a homework free weekend." He shrugged and rejected the offer.
"Ok, suit yourself." I said and walked out.
I had nothing better to do so I checked and re-checked that I had everything that I needed for tomorrow. Then at about at 6:30 the doorbell rang.
"I'll get it!" I shouted and ran to the front door.
"Ready to go?"
"Troy!" I gave him a hug, "Wait, I have to get my phone and everything."
"Mom, Troy's here." I yelled.
I ran back upstairs and got my phone, digital camera and my wallet. My mom was giving Troy a drink inside. I grabbed my coat from the coat rack and waved good-bye to my mom. I linked arms with Troy and shot out the front door. We walked slowly to Troy's house.
"You're so dressed up!" Troy commented.
"Yeah I wanted to make my last night as an East High Junior, memorable." I said, "I'll take that as a compliment."
"Oh yeah, it is!" Troy quickly supplied.
I smiled.
"Can you believe it? We're going tomorrow? Did you pack and everything?" I asked.
"Yeah!" Troy replied.
We pulled jokes on each other, made fun of each other the whole way to Troy's house. Then suddenly, I had an idea.
"You know what Troy? Let's make this a sleepover!" I exclaimed.
"A sleepover?" Troy asked.
"Yes, a sleepover!" I said even more excited.
"Then we'll return in the morning to get our stuff and yeah!" I added liking the idea even more.
"I'll ask my mom. It sounds fun!" Troy added.
"I'll help you organize." I said and clapped my hands.
We arrived at Troy's house as I clapped my hands together. He opened the gate and we walked in together. It was a small area but we both tried to fit in at the same time. We laughed as we got through, with a lot of difficulty. We entered the house together, and already found Gabriella, Taylor, Kelsi, Chad, Jason and Zeke at the house, on the front porch laughing about something. My eyes widened and I unlinked my arms with Troy's and ran towards them with my arms outstretched.
"Aloha!" I yelled.
I hugged Gabriella, Taylor, Kelsi, Jason, Zeke and Chad. I gave them a smile and stood up in front of them. They returned their hugs and sat back down.
"You're so dressed up Sharpay! You look so prettyful!" Kelsi said with an admiring look.
"Thanks, I wanted to make my last night as an East High junior special." I smiled.
"When did you get here?" Troy asked.
"Hi to you too Troy." Gabriella waved.
"Oh, hi."
"Well, I got here with Zeke. His mom drove us here." Chad spoke up.
"My mom drove Gabriella here with Taylor." Jason spoke up.
"And I went with Jason, with my mom." Kelsi smiled.
"Oh ok. Troy came to pick me up." I told my story and smiled.
"Where's Ryan?" Gabriella asked.
"Oh he's at home. He can't come out unless he finishes all his homework." I laughed.
"Well, there's a change to the plan." Troy stated and looked at me.
"Oh, right. Yes. There is a change to the plan," I paused for a bit, as their eyes grew large, "Instead of us going home, we're going to try and hold a sleepover."
"You mean as in a sleepover? As in sleep at Troy's house Sleepover?" Gabriella asked.
"Ahhh...Yes. What else?" I asked, lifting the corner of my mouth and frowning.
"Let me ask my mom," Kelsi stated and took out her cell phone.
"Yeah, me too," they chorused.
"I better call mine too." I said, "Oh and Troy, you guys can sleep in the lounge and the girls will sleep in your room. Just give us spare blankets because we're not gonna use the bed."
"Ok." Troy gave her a thumbs and took us inside.
"Hey guys." Layna Bolton greeted us.
"Hello Mrs. Bolton." I nudged Troy, who was beside me and whispered, "Ask her about the sleepover."
"Mom, is it ok if we can have a sleepover here?" He asked.
Layna Bolton seemed to consider it over her mind for a while.
"Well it's ok with me if it's ok with their parents. And if it's ok with their parents, tell me so that I can tell you guys the basic rules."
"Thanks mom!" Troy hugged his mom.
"Thank you so much Mrs. Bolton!" I smiled at her.
She laughed and walked off to do her whatever it was that she needed to do. I slapped Troy a hi-5 and went to tell the other. They were all sitting on the couch and just talking.
"It's a yes." Taylor smiled.
"A yes from me too!" Chad said.
"Yes." Jason simply informed us.
And it was decided that it was a sleepover. Parents started arriving again to give their children, their clothes and toothbrush. I nudged Troy who was sitting next to me.
"I'm gonna go through your wardrobe later, to see what's suitable. Oh and give me another toothbrush. Mmkay?" I half demanded, half asked.
"Yeah whatever." He rolled his eyes in a playful manner.
I stuck my tongue out at him. When everything was settled, we started the sleepover with a movie. I barged into Troy's computer/play room and looked at all the DVD's they had.
"Oh I found one!" I smiled at my choice.
"NOTEBOOK? Again?" Chad cried out.
"Yes." I nodded, "Shut up and just watch, it's like the sweetest movie ever!"
I handed the DVD to Troy who put it in his DVD player. I sat back and patted the spot next to him. He came and plopped down next to me. I smiled as Chad groaned ...
Troy's PoV:
I got up in the morning and realized where I was. I was in the cold living room and I looked around and found Chad, Jason and Zeke scattered all around the living room. Then it hit me that we had a sleepover last night. I scrunched my nose and glanced out the window. It was still a little dark. I went over to the table, which was pushed to the wall, near the stairs. I grabbed my phone and flipped it open. 6:50 am. It was way too early. Just as I crawled back into my sleeping bag, a figure came down the stairs.
"Good morning." I said, not really sure who that person was.
"Morning, Troy." It was Sharpay.
I looked up. She was wearing, none other than ...
"My spare jersey. What are you doing with it?" I asked, propping myself up on my elbow.
"I'm using it as my pajamas. It's really comfortable. And it smells like your laundry detergent. It smells so good." She smiled and sat on the couch.
I decided that I didn't need any more sleep and got out of my sleeping bag and sat next to her. I leaned back and looked up at the ceiling rubbing my eyes. I nudged her.
"Had a good night's sleep?" I asked.
"Yehp! When I didn't like the floor in the middle of the night, I moved into your bed. No one noticed." She let out a small and quiet giggle.
"Slack one." I commented.
"What time is it?" She asked me.
"6:50." I got up, "You coming?"
"Where?"
"Kitchen."
"Why?"
"Why else, but to eat?"
"Oh right." She giggled again and followed me, "I'm not eating any leftovers from yesterday."
She stepped back and held her hands up. I looked at the pizza box in the fridge. I opened it up and found one slice. I downed it in less than 10 seconds with coke.
"That's not a very good choice of food Troy." She scolded.
"Mmm, but it's so good."
"Whatever." She scoffed and pushed me away from the fridge.
She looked around for a while. Then sighed.
"Oh well, I guess I have no choice," with that she opened up the leftover donuts from yesterday and started downing it.
At around 7, my mom came downstairs and started to cook. Sharpay and I went back to the lounge and started to clean up my sleeping bag. I turned the TV on, put the curtains aside and started to fold my sleeping bag. The boys stirred. It was hard not to wake up when Sharpay and I were making so much noise trying to fit the sleeping bag in its bag.
"Hey Troy, that's the wrong bag." Jason pointed out and laughed.
"Oh." With that I started to laugh as well.
"I think you should go wake the girls up." Zeke suggested to Sharpay.
They were becoming better friends but they weren't very comfortable with each other yet. I was their friend and I was helping them as much as I could. Sharpay ran upstairs and got the girls back downstairs. But Sharpay took Gabriella aside and started to talk to her. I frowned then went into the kitchen smiling with the rest of them as my mom called out to say that breakfast was ready.
"Sharpay, Gabriella, breakfast." My mom called out to the girls.
"Coming." Sharpay replied and ran in, "Aww, Troy, you didn't save a seat for me."
"Yes I did. You just can't see it." I smiled.
"Oh." She ran to the seat that I patted, knocking over the flour as she went.
"Whoops," she bit her bottom lip and put the bowl back upright.
"It's ok, Sharpay dear. Just sit down and get ready to eat." My mom told her.
My mom scooped up a lot of pancakes and put it in the dish in the middle of the table. We all reached out for one before laughing at Sharpay's state. My jersey was covered with flour.
"My spare jersey." I said with mock horror.
"Pity, it was freshly washed!" Sharpay added.
It was a bit after breakfast and I was outside with the boys, shooting some last hoops together as an East High Junior, while the girls stayed inside.
3rd Person (Narrator's PoV):
Sharpay's parents knocked on the door with a sour Ryan. Layna and Jack Bolton came rushing to the doors and let them in. Sharpay was still dressed in the floury jersey.
"Mom! Dad!" Sharpay exclaimed and hugged her parents.
"Here are you spare clothes to wear now." Serena Evans handed the clothes to her daughter and gave her a long hug.
"Ryan, do not go to Gabriella. Things will get just too mixed up!" Sharpay whispered to Ryan.
"Ok." Ryan whispered back with a wink.
Sharpay headed upstairs to the bathroom to take a shower. She experimented with the sweet smelling shampoos and body lotions as usual. While Troy was sitting on the grass with his basketball teammates.
"Troy, you like her don't you?" Chad asked.
"What? I like who?" Troy played dumb.
"Stop playing dumb, you know who I'm talking about." Chad snickered along with the other guys.
"Sharpay!" Jason finally blurted out.
"What about her?" Troy asked still staring only ahead.
"You like her, don't you?" Chad repeated.
"No. She's just my best friend. Like you Chad." Troy simply replied.
"Yeah yeah, whatever Troy. I can see that you like her. The way you look at her, the way you treat her. It's a bit obvious." Chad snickered again.
"Whatever." With that Troy left the boys and went inside.
Inside, he walked into his room and got dressed, used his mom and dad's bathroom to wash up and used his dad's aftershave. He walked downstairs and found his friends slowly leaving with their parents, to the airport, to greet Kelsi, Sharpay and Troy.
"See you. Bye!" Troy greeted them.
He then took a last look at his room and walked downstairs, closing the door behind him. Sharpay was done with her shower, the smell satisfying her. She dried her hair with the blow drier, curled it with Layna Bolton's curler and walked downstairs. She found a plastic bag placed her laundry in it and put it in her mom's jeep. She went back inside, seeing that her trunk was already loaded and went off to find Troy.
"Oy. What are you doing?" Sharpay called out from the front porch.
"Shooting some hoops before we leave," Troy called out.
"You're gonna get all yucky and sweaty again!" Sharpay called back.
"It's ok." Troy replied.
"No it's not. I'm bored." She took a step, and another and walked to the court.
As Troy was about to look at her, he stopped and thought about what his friends said and thought, 'Maybe it's true ...'
Sharpay took the basketball off of him and shot a perfect goal. Troy clapped and smiled. Suddenly Mr. Bolton's voice rang out.
"Lunch time."
They went back inside ate their lunch and sat on the back porch having a nice quiet chat.
"I can't believe that we're actually going." Sharpay softly spoke up, breaking a twig in half, again then again until there was no more twig.
"I know. Its' so ..." Troy trailed off, unable to find the right wording.
"Surreal." They both said.
They giggled and threw a glance at each other.
"How's you and Gabriella?" Sharpay asked.
"We're getting to be better friends." Troy replied.
"How's you and Zeke?" Troy asked.
"Same here." Sharpay smiled.
"Hey, we'll make Saturday afternoon's our Best Friend day out. In the free afternoons we'll do our homework. The one's that matter academically." Sharpay held out her pinky, "Promise."
"Promise." Troy pinky promised her, letting go quickly as he felt that noticeable tingle. It was getting more visible every time. He was unable to shrug it off.
"We're going!" Ryan's voice shot through.
"Oh ok. Let's go." Sharpay said and linked arms with Troy.
They walked out into their own family car and drove to the airport. They were suddenly both filled with nerves and excitement.
Author's Note: There you go ! I was gonna stop when they get to New York but then I had plentyfull more ideas. I might make it a short and stupid and boring if I don't know what you people are thinking about ( with my story that is ) .. keke . Well yeah .. !
