I can't seem to stop updating. I just can't hold onto a chapter!

I'm thinking of doing a three shot based on my Troyella chapter of this series (ch5). Let me know what you think. In the meantime, I hope you enjoy this Taypay, which has a hint of Zekepay.

-------------------

"Shar, can we do something else? ANYTHING else." Taylor sighed.

"You don't like watching me try on my new outfits?" Sharpay pouted.

"Not really." Taylor sighed, sitting up from where she was laid on Sharpay's bed. "What you're wearing now is fine."

"Fine?" Sharpay glared.

"You look great." Taylor cracked an over-the-top smile, and stuck her thumbs up.

Sharpay let a small smile grace her mouth, before running her fingers through her hair.

"Are you done?!" Taylor asked impatiently. "If we don't get to Zeke's soon, all the food will be gone."

"True…" Sharpay bit her lip, knowing she needed some of Zeke's food. She hurriedly gathered some things and placed them in a purse matching her outfit.

"Done?"

"I'm ready." Sharpay nodded. "Are you sure this outfit's okay?"

Taylor took a step back, and considered Sharpay's outfit. A dark green strapless mini dress, flattering but not trashy.

"It's perfect."

Sharpay smiled, satisfied with Taylor's seemingly honest answer. She quickly found some matching shoes, pulling them on as Taylor walked down the stairs.

"Wait up!" Sharpay whined, pulling on her second shoe.

The two walked to Zeke's, who lived about two blocks away. Sharpay wanted to drive, of course, but Taylor talked her out of it. A waste of time, energy, parking space, o zone layer.

Taylor thought it was a pretty nice idea of Zeke's, to have a dinner party for New Year's Eve. There was to be eight of them: Taylor herself, Sharpay, Zeke of course, Ryan, Kelsi, Jason, Chad, and Martha. Taylor had been quite upset that Gabriella and Troy weren't able to make it, something about being stuck up on the west coast. Taylor had almost had a legal obligation to do girly stuff with Sharpay prior to the party, much to her dismay.

After the dinner party, there was to be a small party, with dancing, with a few more guests.

The dinner party had ended up as quite a success. Zeke had cooked Squid, prompting some disgusted looks from some guests, who soon changed their mind once they had tried some. Zeke followed the Squid with a generous amount of Crème brûlée for everybody.

When the party guests started to arrive, a short while after everybody had finished their dessert, Zeke turned on the music in the living room, and shut the door whilst he cleaned up the dining room.

An hour into the dance party, Taylor and Sharpay were laughing, dancing together. Sharpay eyed one of the skater guys talking to Jason, before strolling over.

"Hey, dudes…" the skinny, black-haired skater grinned, looking slightly out of it. "Did you two girls come here… together?!"

"Yeah…" Taylor laughed, looking confused and rolling her eyes.

"Yeah. We did." Sharpay glared at the blank looking skater dude, pulling Taylor close to her body. "We're together now."

"Awesome!!!" The skater guy chuckled, before slinking back off to his friends.

"Sharpay!" Taylor laughed.

"What? C'mon. It's fun." Sharpay giggled, sensually running her hand down Taylor's back. "It's the holidays. Give the pervert something to get excited about."

"Sharpay…" Taylor smiled, shaking her head, but clearly enjoying the reaction they were provoking. She started to stroke Sharpay's hair.

"Look at him." Sharpay giggled. "It's sick."

"Yeah it is." Taylor laughed. "Oh, look, there's Zeke, let's go say thanks for dinner."

"I'll thank him enough for the both of us later." Sharpay grinned. "In the meantime, let's kill two birds with one stone."

"What?" Taylor asked, confused.

Sharpay looked at her watch, and said nothing again for about 5 minutes. She looked at her watch again, staring for about twenty seconds, until the music cut, and everybody started to count down from ten.

As they reached zero, Sharpay grabbed Taylor's face, and thrust her own lips against hers. She glanced at Zeke out of the corner of her eye, and inwardly grinned at his shocked expression.

"Phew." Sharpay sighed, pulling away from Taylor. "That was great. Look."

Taylor bit her bottom lip, looking around at the shocked expressions of 95% of the party. By the time her eyes lay on Zeke, Sharpay was just approaching him, gripping his jaw with her fingers, and passionately kissing him. Taylor shook her head, folding her arms, as Sharpay led Zeke towards the stairs. She couldn't help but laugh to herself, as Zeke ran up eagerly after Sharpay.

By the way, I was imagining the skater dude to be that guy from HSM1 - "Awesome! What is it? A SAW?!" ha ha. Hope that came across.
