CHAPTER 5: The Start of a New Life
"Just another day started out like any other
Just another girl who took my breath away
Then she turned around, she took me down
Just another that I had the best day of my life."
The next day at East High.
"I got your tickets for the concert," Prince gave the tickets to his friends.
"Wow!" the girls were excited. "Thank you Prince!"
"Cool!" Chad exclaimed. "Thanks buddy."
"Wait a minute," Prince said. "How bout Ryan's?"
"I'll just give it to him," Sharpay volunteered.
"Where is he anyway?" they looked around.
Meanwhile, Troy and his friends were watching Prince's group.
Troy thought to himself, "Stop it Troy! Forget about Sharpay! She has Prince now! It's no use you're falling for her! Stop it! YOU DON'T LOVE HER!"
"Dude," Zeke and Jason called out.
"Why don't you just forget about Sharpay?" Zeke suggested. "You're just hurting yourself."
"Yeah," Jason agreed. "Besides, there are lots of other girls out there."
"How bout you make friends with her?" Ryan sat next to Troy.
"Ryan??" the three boys were surprised to see him.
"What?" Ryan asked. "It's not a bad idea, is it?"
"What are you doing here?" Troy asked.
"Yeah, you're supposed to be with them," Jason pointed at Prince's group.
"You're not in a war with them, right?" Zeke asked.
"Nah, I just stopped by to give you these," Ryan handed them three tickets.
"What are these?" they asked. "Tickets for Chrystal Oman's concert?"
"Yup," Ryan nodded. "That's all yours."
"Cool!" Jason and Zeke exclaimed.
"Wait. But why?" Troy asked.
"Chrystal Oman is the most popular celebrity today and her concerts are spectacular," Ryan said. "I just want you to watch. I know you'll enjoy."
"Definitely!" Zeke and Jason were excited.
"Wait! I still don't get it. Why are you doin this?" Troy asked again.
"You have to be there to get the answer to your question. Well, I'm sure you won't regret it, Troy Bolton," Ryan smiled at him. "I'll be there too, just to inform you."
Troy just looked at him in confusion.
Zeke and Jason were really excited, "Thanks buddy!"
"And Troy, about my advice earlier, I think you should follow it," Ryan told him. "My sister's really friendly. Sharpay loves to gain more friends."
Troy was still confused.
Then, Ryan walked towards Sharpay and her friends.
"Dude," Zeke and Jason turned to Troy.
"He wants you to be Sharpay's friend?" Jason asked.
"Or is he voting you for his sister against HER BOYFRIEND?" asked Zeke.
Troy shook his head, "I-I don't know."
Meanwhile, at Prince's group.
"Here's Ryan," Chad informed his friends.
"Hey guys," Ryan gave the boys hi-five before sitting down.
"Where have you been?" Sharpay asked.
"Nowhere," Ryan answered. "I was just late."
Sharpay handed his ticket to him, "Here's your ticket."
"Thanks," Ryan smiled. "Prince…good luck on the show."
"Thanks, bro!" Prince smiled.
During the night of the concert.
"Oops," Sharpay gulped. "I'll be sitting with a stranger in my left."
"Don't worry, you'll be sitting with your big bro in your right," Ryan smiled.
Sharpay laughed.
Sharpay sat next to Ryan then Kelsi then Taylor then Gabriella then Chad.
"Oh my gosh! I'm so excited!" Kelsi and Taylor exclaimed.
"This is really a good start for Prince," Gabriella said.
Suddenly, Zeke, Jason, and Troy came.
"Sharpay?" Troy was surprised to see Sharpay and her friends there. Did Ryan planned all this?
"Troy?" Sharpay was also surprised to see them there. What is he doing here?
"Oh hey, you're here," Ryan and the others turned to them.
"I didn't know you guys are gonna watch," Chad was happy to see his OTHER friends.
"Well, thanks to…" Zeke was cut off.
"The tickets. Good thing you got your tickets," Ryan answered quickly. "Well, isn't it good they're here? We have additional support for Prince."
"Oh yeah," they agreed.
"What is he talking about? He gave us the ticket!" Jason whispered to Zeke and Troy.
"Yeah," Zeke agreed. "I was supposed to say 'Thanks to Ryan'."
"Prince?" Troy didn't understand the part SUPPORT FOR PRINCE.
"He's going to sing in the concert," Sharpay answered.
"Yup," Chad nodded.
"And he's amazing!" the others exclaimed.
"Um…my seat's next to you," Troy told Sharpay.
"Hmm…looks like you'll be sitting with someone you know and not a stranger in your left 'lil sis," Ryan smiled.
"Great," Sharpay smiled.
When they had settled down, they started dating while waiting for the concert to start. Everytime Sharpay would talk or smile at Troy, he felt like his heart is melting. Meanwhile, at the backstage.
"Prince Richards, right?" Chrystal approached Prince.
"Yeah," Prince sounded nervous.
"Nervous?" asked Chrystal.
Prince nodded.
"I've been a started too and I know how it feels," she told him. "Just put your heart into it and you'll probably have a connection with the people. Just express to them the way you feel through your songs."
Prince smiled at her, "Thanks for the…uh…advice."
"Don't mention it," she smiled back. "Good luck. And by the way…your songs are amazing."
Prince grinned.
Then, the concert started. Chrystal sang her singles then she sang Bleeding Love together with Prince.
"Closed off from love
I didn't need the pain
Once or twice was enough
And it was all in vain
Time starts to pass
Before you know it you're frozen
But something happened
For the very first time with you
My heart melts into the ground
Found something true
And everyone's looking round
Thinking I'm going crazy
But I don't care what they say
I'm in love with you
They try to pull me away
But they don't know the truth
My heart's crippled by the vein
That I keep on closing
You cut me open and I
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open"
After that, Prince sang Best Day of my life;
"Woke up around a half past ten
Can't believe that I'm late again
Put down about a quart of caffine
To start my pulse and then
I grabbed my jeans off the floor and I hit the door,
Just the same old same
It goes to show
You never know
When everything's about to change
Just another day
Started out like any other
Just another girl who took my breath away
Then she turned around
She took me down
Just another day that I
Had the best day of my life"
Then, Just the girl;
She's cool and she's cruel
But she knows what she's doin'
She pushed me in the pool
At our last school reunion
She laughs at my dreams
But I dream about her laughter
Strange as it seems
She's the one I'm after
Cause she's bittersweet
She knocks me off of my feet
And I can't help myself
I don't want anyone else
She's a mystery
She's too much for me
But I keep comin' back for more
She's just the girl I'm lookin' for
And Stolen:
"We watch the season pull up its own stakes
And catch the last weekend of the last week
Before the gold and the glimmer have been replaced,
Another sun soaked season fades away
You have stolen my heart
Invitation only, grant farewells
Crush the best one, of the best ones
Clear liquor and cloudy eyed, too early to say goodnight
You have stolen my heart
And from the ballroom floor we are in celebration
One good stretch before our hibernation
Our dreams assured and we all, will sleep well
You have stolen
You have stolen my heart
I watch you spin around in the highest heels
You are the best one, of the best ones
We all look like we feel
You have stolen my
You have stolen my heart"
Everyone loved his performance. He gained a lot of fans already. Ryan's right, Chrystal Oman's concert is spectacular. After the concert.
"You're a superstar Prince!" Mr. Fritz smiled at him.
"I am?" Prince smiled in joy.
