This summer couldn't have turned out worse for Sharpay Evans. Her plan to get Troy was foiled; her brother decided to make friends with the Wildcats, and once again Gabriella stole her spotlight. This wasn't suppose to happen to her, she was suppose to win Troy, and the talent show so she could live happily ever after, but it didn't turn out that way at all. Who would of thought, Sharpay Evans for the second time in her life, didn't get what she wanted. She supposed what hurt her the most was probably her own brother's abandonment, he was always suppose to be by her side, he always had before, but those Wildcats always had to have something of hers, her talent show, her musicals, her country club, her brother, and now her summer. Sharpay could hear the Wildcats celebrating outside, but she wanted no part of it, not tonight, not ever. She would never be one of them, even if her brother had been captivated by them. She would never sink so low for appreciation. She got her appreciation on stage with lights and sets and applause, but at the moment she wasn't feeling like much of a star, more like one that had blown out. Outside was where the nights and stars were. She wouldn't go. She couldn't go, not while everyone was laughing and having fun. She wanted to be alone tonight, besides she didn't even want to been seen. If she went she knew what would happen, and she didn't want to deal with it. Even though she always tried to be the center of attention, in this particular occasion she would try to hide where no one would find her, because in the Wildcat crowd, she was practically friendless, and loathed. So instead, she wandered around the Lava Springs dining room, ignoring everyone that was still there after the talent show, but finally decided to try heading towards the kitchen without anyone noticing her, which she considered to be a challenge since she was always noticed, but tonight, no one appeared to notice her for the first time in her life. She steeped inside the kitchen, and looked around. Slightly smiling she went to the fridge, and grabbed the ice cream she secretly stashed in the back, her mother didn't really approve of sweets. She quickly grabbed a spoon and began to eat while watching the Wildcats party outside. This was suppose to be her turf, not theirs, but who was out having fun tonight, and who was alone eating ice cream out of a carton in a deserted kitchen? She sighed and closed her eyes but it was no use, nothing worked. She slowly put the carton back in the freezer; her comfort food wasn't giving her usual enjoyment at the moment, and looked outside again. As soon as she did she wished she hadn't. Seeing Gabriella hug Troy tightly was like breaking her heart in two. Even more, now that fireworks lit up the dark night sky, creating the perfect mid-summer night mood. Even thought fireworks were beautiful this year, Sharpay just turned her head away, she wasn't in the mood, for happiness, what she really wanted was friendship, but to achieve her dream of performing on Broadway, she had to create a mask that would keep the distance of those she would leave behind, only her brother knew she felt like this, but he seemed to forget that, when he decided to regain his love for baseball. Everyone in that crowd seem to have a different talent as oppose to their future, but all Sharpay had was her love for theater, and the Wildcats couldn't even let her have that. Frustrated, Sharpay went upstairs to try and sleep through her aggravation.
"This has turned out to be a pretty good summer, after all Troy, it was a little rocky at first, but we pulled through." Gabriella Montez said, hugging her boyfriend, Troy Boltan. Troy looked around at all his friends. Some were by the pool, a few couples were having picnics, and his newest friend Ryan Evans was showing Chad a new way to swing a baseball bat.
"I know I lost my head there for some of it, but now I have to agree, this summer was full of surprises." Troy said.
"Well we can't put all the blame on you, I mean it was mostly the Ice Queens doing, although I have to say she did try very hard." Chad Danforth said coming up with his girlfriend Taylor in his arms.
"I've told you time and time again that girl brings trouble, Troy, maybe one of these days you'll wise up and listen to me." Taylor said as Ryan, Zeke, Jason, and Kelsi came running up. Try shrugged his shoulders.
"She's actually not all that bad, sure she's conniving and forceful, but I didn't really mind showing her how to golf, she seemed kinda nice there, you know when she finally learned how to hold on to the putter." Said Troy, staring at the floor avoiding everyone's gaze, because he knew everyone was starring at him if he were crazy.
"Troy! Shar knows how to play golf; we've been playing since we were six years old. We've even seen Tiger play, he gave us a few pointers!" Ryan explained to Troy. Troy looked around perplexed until realization sank in.
"Nice try Sharpay." Muttered Gabriella shaking her head and hugging Troy even more tightly. Taylor seemed to be controlling her anger. Chad scoffed in annoyance, Zeke was avoiding everyone's eyes, and Kelsi was closing her eyes in irritation, and Jason wasn't even paying attention. Noticing where the conversation was headed, Ryan tried a different approach. He didn't want this night to be ruined by a simple comment.
"But seriously you guys, you have to give my sister a chance, deep down she a good person, just a little high strung about theater." Ryan said defensively.
"I'm going to pass on the getting to know her if you don't mind, Ryan." Taylor said immediately.
"My girlfriend is a genius, so I'm agreeing with her" said Chad.
"I wouldn't mind getting to know her more, but I haven't seen her since the talent show, was she even here tonight?" Zeke asked everyone, but on one seemed to know where the Ice Queen had wandered off to.
"Um look, the fireworks are starting!" cried Kelsi, pointing to the sky, and trying to steer the conversation away from Sharpay. The group sat on the grass and watched the colors and designs light up the night sky. Ryan looked back at the main resort of Lava Springs, and saw the light in his sisters room turn off, his face fell slightly as looked at the Wildcats, and then back to his sister's now dark room. He had a feeling he was going to have a confrontation with Shar tomorrow about his night of fun. He looked back at the Wildcats and smiled slightly at them, these people were his new friends; he didn't always have that many growing up, being in plays and following his sister everywhere, so at least, maybe he could have some fun tonight before facing Sharpay tomorrow morning.
