CHAPTER THREE

Today was the big day! They girls woke up and ate breakfast that Ms. Montez kindly made before she went to work. They decided to kill some time before the date.

"Okay I don't know about you guys, but I'm bored." Gabriella said while flicking thru channels.

Sharpay then suggested, "Why don't we do karaoke? I mean you don't even have to get ready yet, so why no?"

Taylor and Kelsi nodded eagerly. "Yeah! We have tons of time to kill since we woke up so early, and we can just do it in our pajamas."

Gabriella giggled, "Fine, as long as I still have time to get ready." She set it up and they picked songs.

After they all did one song Sharpay insisted, "Let's sing this song! It seems fun!" They all laughed. "Shar what are you doing?" Gabriella asked.

"Getting in the spirit for the song! Duh!" She said as she did her hair different. They shrugged and fixed their hair funny too. When they finished she pressed play.

Sharpay then gave a little introduction, "Ahem. And now... the beautiful girls of East High!" The music played and they got wild.

Taylor: Yo, I'll tell you what I want, what I really really want,

Sharpay: So tell me what you want, what you really really want,

Taylor: I'll tell you what I want, what I really really want,

Sharpay: So tell me what you want, what you really really want,

Taylor: I wanna, I wanna, I wanna, I wanna, I wanna really

really really wanna zigazig ha

Gabi: If you want my future forget my past,

If you wanna get with me better make it fast,

Kelsi: Now don't go wasting my precious time,

Get your act together we could be just fine

Sharpay:What do you think about that now you know how I feel,

Say you can handle my love are you for real,

Taylor:I won't be hasty, I'll give you a try

If you really bug me then I'll say goodbye.

Gabi: Yo, I'll ---

They screamed. "What was that?!" Gabriella asked as they heard a loud thump. Taylor then said looking out the window, "More like who was that," and she opened the door.

The girls laughed when they say the guys on the ground over each other. "Spying are we?" Taylor said with raised eyebrows.

Chad then made a comment, "Aw you guys look so cute dancing around in your pajamas! And your hair is so hot." They blushed and quickly fixed their hair.

"Danforth shut it! What are you guys doing here anyway?" Sharpay asked.

Jason stepped forward, "We just wanted to check on you for Troy." Troy then elbowed him. "Yeah, well we better go... Bye!"

The girls shared confused looks as they rushed away.

"Oh my gosh! I better get ready!" Gabriella said. Once she was dressed, Sharpay did her hair and makeup, Taylor adjusted the camera and mic so they could hear and see her, and Kelsi made sure everything was right.

The guys had arrived at Troy's and were now in his room.

The guys just laughed as Troy was pacing back and forth. "What if she changed her mind? Do I look alright?"

Jason assured him, "You look great, like a fox!" Troy was so nervous about this he said, "What! I don't want to look like a fox! I wanna look like a man!"

Jason shook his head.

"Hey. Hey! You're Captain! Of course you look good. Alright man? Chill she's coming soon." Chad said trying to calm him down.

"Yeah, your right. Thanks guys." The guys said goodbye and secretly went to Gabriella's to see their girlfriends and watch through the camera.

- - - -

Gabriella reached the front door. She rang the doorbell.

Troy answered it and said, "Wow you look great."

"Thanks you do too. Now let's go!"

They were in the car when he asked, "I know you won't tell me but I'm gonna figure it out sooner or later so why not tell me where we are going?"

"I decided later is better. So just wait... Oh I LOVE THIS SONG!!!" Gabriella squealed.

Troy just smiled as she slightly rocked to the beat while singing.

"We have arrived Mr. Bolton."

Troy rushed out, and opened her door and offered his arm. She accepted it and lead him to the door.

They picked their color for their golf balls and went to the first one.

"I just wanted to let you know, that I'm not really good at this... I only picked this for you." She admitted.

Troy smirked, "Then maybe you should let the master teach you. But how did you know I liked this?"

"I have my sources" She looked at him and he smiled. She smiled too.

Troy shot it and got a hole in one. "Wow! Troy! Oh my gosh, a hole in one? Is there anything you can't do?"

He blushed at the comment and said humbly, "It was nothing. I bet you can do that too."

"I can't, if you didn't remember. I need your help." He put his club down and went behind her. His hands on hers sent shivers down her spine. He moved it and the ball went rolling.

"HOLE IN ONE! DID YOU SEE THAT TROY!?" She was like a little girl at a magic show.

"Yeah I saw it Gabs. I was helping you," He chuckled.

"Oh right!" She giggled.

At Gabriella's.

The girls awed when Troy went behind her. "That's so cute!" one said.

Ms. Montez opened the door, "So I take it their date's going well?" They all nodded as the mom said, "I knew this was going to be great! I'm so happy for them, finally together!"

"Um, they aren't together yet, ma'am." Zeke said politely, earning a kiss from Sharpay on the cheek when Ms. Montez left.

- - - -

They were on the last hole and Gabi was winning. Since Troy helped her all the time. She always distracted him when it was his turn.

Gabriella then said playfully while giggling, "Troy, you aren't as good as you said you were."

"Is that so?" She nodded. He then asked, "What about now? huh?" while carrying her and making her laugh. (A/N like in the gym when she invented pop corn. :P)

"Put me down!" She insisted. "Thank yo-" She was cut off when he started tickling her. She begged him to stop in between laughs.

"Only if you say 'Troy Bolton is the best at everything' while bowing to me!" She said, "fine you win!"

"Troy Bolton is the best at everything." She said quietly while tipping her head.

"Hm, what did you say? And I don't see you bowing" He reminded her.

She playfully rolled her eyes and said it louder while bowing making everyone stare. "Happy now?" He pretended to think. "I guess."

She hit his arm and said,"Come on we have one more event!" She grabbed his hand and pulled him to the car.

It was only a few minutes later till they got to the park. There was a picnic laid out by the pond. He smiled at it. "You took so much time with this date huh?"

"Yeah, only the best for you." She said smiling, but then quietly she said to the mic, "Thanks girls!"

The date was almost over. "This was nice don't you think?" Gabriella said quietly noticing how close they were.

"Yeah, i loved it." Troy said leaning in, "We should do it again."

She then found herself leaning too, but was disappointed when he turned away.

"Maybe this time I could take you out... like tomorrow for a more elegant scene?" He said ignoring the fact he almost kissed her.

"Sure. I can't wait." Gabriella said slightly disappointed by the almost-kiss and happy that their plan worked.

- - - -

She got back home and it was now just her and the girls. They were all gushing about what happened and delighted how their plan worked. They told her not to worry about the kiss because he asked her on another date. The girls slept over one more night for the weekend; for tomorrows occasion.

Kayz, that's it. I think this is going okay. Do your magic! & lay it on me!

Thanks! Oh and they sang Wannabe - Spice Girls. :)

Love, Elise
