Sorry it's so short but I decided that later today I'll post up the last chapter. Tomorrow, I'll post the epilogue so, in about... 6 hours, I guess, this story will be coming to a close. Aww... but next week I'll have the sequel, Goin' Back uploaded so keep an eye out for it! Enjoy!

Also, I would suggest listening to A Night To Remember from High School Musical 3 as you read this. I don't know why but it just goes with the chapter.

"Shane, stop sulking," Nate demanded as he looked up from his guitar. They were in the gym, having a sound check before prom. "Shane!"

"What?" Shane groaned as he looked up from his chair. He was just staring at the ceiling as if he were daydreaming.

"Dude, focus. You can talk to Mitchie later. Right now, we need to focus on prom. Remember? The thing we said we'd take care of? We promised the girls... we... would... Whoa. Jason, what are you holding?"

"A flamingo!" Jason answered happily. He wasn't kidding. The thing was at least 10 feet tall but it was so freakin' light. Nate sighed.

"Jas, we already said: NO BIRD THEME!!"

"But this is the mascot..."

"What?" Shane spoke up.

"Our school mascot is the flamingo. See? It's right there on the floor." Jason pointed to it and he was right. Right smack dab in center court was a bright flamingo picture completely glazed. Nate sighed, again.

"Fine, just put it in the corner by the stage or something."

"Yay!"

"But Mitchie!"

"Caitlyn, all of us are getting our hair done and you are, too!" Mitchie said as she pulled her friend to the truck. Peggy, Lola, and Tess were already there.

"But I don't like being all girly! I just want to have my style!"

Mitchie gave her a look. "You bought a black dress that looks like the ones in those commercials."

"So?"

"Ugh! Just tell the hair dresser what you want, okay?"

"Fine," Caitlyn grumbled as she got inside the truck.

"Cait, what took you so long?" Tess whined. "Prom is only in a few hours!"

"Yeah, yeah." Caitlyn just stared out the window and started thinking, 'I wonder what Nate and the others are doing.'

"Just put it right there. There we go!" Jaime declared as he and Sander placed the palm tree down.

"Testing, testing. One, two, three. A, B, C, D, E, F, G," Nate said as he tapped the microphone.

"Where do the balloons go?" Barron asked.

"Just all over the floor. Here, we'll give you a hand," Sander said as he joined him along with Jaime.

"You guys got your tuxes in the back, right?" Nate yelled from the stage. They yelled, "Yeah!" back.

"I thought we weren't doing the bird theme," Shane wondered.

"It's an island theme—Jason! What did you do to the background paper?" Nate asked, pointing to the lamely drawn birds all over the sky part of the paper.

"What? They're birds!" Jason cheered.

"It's good we got the back-up," Shane muttered to Nate who just simply nodded.

"Hey! How many plates do we put on each table?" a voice asked.

"Six for the circles and twelve for the rectangles—whoa! What the hell are you two doing here?" Shane bursted.

"Helping with prom, what does it look like?" Jaiden asked.

"It's not like we're taking heroin or snorting cocaine or something," Ashley continued.

"You really shouldn't know these things," Nate said.

"Sorry dudes, the damage has already been done," Jaiden replied, shrugging.

"Hey Dave," Mitchie greeted as she noticed her date coming towards her.

"Hi Mitch, um, can I talk to you privately?" Dave asked. Mitchie nodded and walked away from her friends.

"What's up?"

"Listen, I really like you and all but I found another girl. I'm sorry." Mitchie was a little crushed that her first crush broke up with her (even though they weren't exactly dating) but she was overall fine. When Mitchie saw Dave's worried expression she spoke up.

"Don't worry about it Dave. I'll probably end up being with Shane anyway. We can still be friends, right?"

"Absolutely." Dave gave her a quick hug and then left after saying goodbye.

When Mitchie got back to the group, Tess asked, "So what did Dave want?"

"He told me he got a new girlfriend and he's taking her to prom," Mitchie responded as if nothing was wrong. Actually, there really wasn't anything wrong.

"Aw, I'm sorry Mitchie," Peggy comforted.

"I knew Dave was a bad seed," Caitlyn scowled.

"Come on guys, Dave isn't a bad guy. Besides, I'll probably be with Shane or I could just hand out with you guys," Mitchie reassured. "Now come on! We gotta get home! Prom is in an hour!"

"And now, here's another song from our latest album, C3. So everyone get up 'cause you gotta LIVE TO PARTY!" Nate yelled in his microphone.

"Yeah!" Shane yelled.

"I was sitting at home
Watching TV all alone
So tired of reruns
I've memorized this show

So I picked up the phone
Called everyone I know
Said there's gonna be a party
Hit the music
Here we go! Yeah!

You gotta live to party
Bust your moves
Everybody's in the groove
Tell the DJ to play our song
Are you ready to rock 'n roll?"

"Whoo!" Mitchie cheered as she danced with Caitlyn and Peggy. Tess was dancing with Jaime and Barron was dancing with Lola. Sander was...somewhere.

"Hey Mitchie! Enjoying the party?" someone asked her. Mitchie turned around only to make her eyes go wide.

"What the hell are you guys doing here?" she shrieked.

Happy? Mitchie didn't go with Dave but at least she went with her friends. And, who could make her that surprised at her own prom? Any guesses? Oh, and don't forget to vote so I can confirm the whole setting-thing for the sequel. Review! (6 hours!)
