A/N: Okay, this is chapter two. Sharpay has found Ryan's notebook, and she and the gang start conversations in it. Who is who:

SSharpay

CChad

TTaylor

GGabriella

TrTroy

ZZeke

KKelsi

(Shadowed)JJason

RRyan

This is also in the present time, no more reflections, except one part, and it doesn't completely focus on Ryan, but on the gang. But the main thing is the notebook. Enjoy!

S- Wow and people say I'm dramatic! We don't leave Ryan out! Just because it's an uneven number in our gang, doesn't mean that HE'S the odd one out! Sure, he's not hooked up with someone, but it's not like we're going on a quadruple date without him-hey! That's not a bad idea! Wait, sorry I'm getting off track here. Anyway, this notebook of Ryan's fell out of his locker, without him noticing, so out of natural curiosity, I picked it up, and began to read. I've always wanted to know what someone else was thinking, and here was my chance! Well, I guess when you think about it, I should thank Ryan for getting me and Zeke, -sigh- together, and for warning me about Troy looking at the sheet. But still, since when did he NOT want to stop Troy and Gabriella from stealing our lives (well, parts in the musical, but same difference) away? I thought he wanted to always be on top with me! What did I ever do to him, to convince him otherwise?

C- Well, lets look over the evidence here. You control him, force him to dress weird, and sing and dance every day of his life. No wonder he hates you!

S- Okay, first of all Chad, do not EVER rip anything out of my hands, understand?! And secondly, Ryan likes singing and loves dancing. See above.

C- Yeah, but you didn't answer my other complaint. You make the guy wear pink and sparkly clothes!! No guy likes that! I rest my case.

T- Chad do you even know what "I rest my case" means?

C- No, but it sounds cool!

G- Hey you guys? It's bad enough that you stole and looked through Ryan's personal notebook, but now you're writing in it in pen?!

C- Hey, you're writing in it too!

G- That's because I don't have any loose leaf paper, and we're not allowed to talk, because it's a study hall.

T- Good points!

S- Yeah, and if you all don't mind, could we get back to the point I was on?

Tr- Well, if we are leaving Ryan out, we aren't doing it on purpose.

T- Yeah.

G- Yeah.

C- You know what the easiest solution to this problem is? And I'm surprised you "decathlon" girls didn't figure it out yet. How about get him a girlfriend, so then we can make it a….um…..what would a five-couple date be again?

T- Quintuple (sp?). No wonder you're flunking math.

C- Thank you! And I know just who! That cheerleader, Jaclyn Waldvogel thinks that Ryan's hot! Lucky guy!

S- WHAT?!?!?! SINCE WHEN?!?!?!?

Tr- Hey Chad, um…remember we weren't going to tell Sharpay that.

S- WHY NOT?!?! I HAVE THE RIGHT TO KNOW THAT SOME YOU-KNOW-WHAT (A/N: starts with an "s" and ends with a "t"….lol) LIKES MY BROTHER!!!!!

T- We didn't tell you, because we knew you'd act this way.

S- WHAT WAY?!?!

C- All defensive and protective, because a girl likes your brother, and you can't cope with that idea.

S- WELL DO YOU BLAME ME? Ryan's never had a girlfriend or even a girl with a crush on him. Figures the first girl to like him is a-

G- Sharpay calm down before you write…..or scream, because you look like you're going to, something that wouldn't sound that great. Besides, if what you said before was true, about him helping you and Zeke get together, I think you should let him, if he does like her back, to be able to do what he wants. It is a free country you know.

T- Uh guys, hate to interrupt, but look who just walked in.

S- Who? Oh snap.

HSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSM

At this time, I would like to personally thank Sharpay, Chad, Taylor, Gabriella, and Troy for stealing my personal belongings, rifling through them, and using two pages of my notebook up. And they were thinking of setting me up with Jaclyn Waldvogel? Are they nuts? If I had to hook up with a cheerleader, let it be someone with a little talent in them, such as Stephanie Ostrowski, who is an excellent dancer, if I do say so myself. Well, ever since they discovered my innermost thoughts and feelings, they have been making, (actually, a kind of annoying) effort to include me. It's annoying, because it's obvious why they're doing it, and it doesn't feel genuine. So I'm either a special case, or completely ignored. WHY ME?!?!?!?!? Sorry had a dramatic moment there. Guess hanging out in the theatre for a while does that to you. Maybe then the next time Troy has a basketball game, he'll start acting like John Tucker does in the movie. (Sharpay had everyone over for a sleepover a couple weeks ago, and the girls insisted that we watch that.) I just hope no one looks in this again.

HSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSM

S- If Ryan didn't want people reading this, he shouldn't leave it in such an obvious place to find. I mean, honestly. Okay, we include him, and he still complains! I don't believe him!

T- And I don't believe you either! You stole his notebook AGAIN?!?!?

S- He left it in the most obvious place! Who am I to resist temptation?

G- And I can't believe you guys are writing in it again. And DON'T say I'm writing in it too. I have no choice.

T- Yeah, the guys forgot to mention that when we came to watch them practice, Coach Bolton won't let us talk, because we'll distract them.

G- With Sharpay doing the "bend-and-snap" thing, that's distracting them enough!

T- Lol, true!

S- Hello, I'm right here! I can see what you're writing.

K- And I'm right here, and completely confused. What are you guys talking about, and whose book is this?

S- It's Ryan's. I kind of found it-

T- You mean stole from him.

S- Whatever. Anyway, he was making a big deal out of what he did that had an influence in the movie, and how we leave him out.

K- I see. (A/N: About 7 minutes later.) He does have a point. Did Zeke see this Sharpay, because it is because of Ryan that you even gave Zeke a chance.

S- I KNOW I KNOW ALREADY!!!!! I THANKED HIM ABOUT 17 TIMES!!!!

T-Each time for a musical you guys have been in.

G- Lol, good one!

T- Hey, look the guys are done. Ew, they're all sweaty.

G- Yeah, and Chad's heading your way, with an evil look on his face.

T- What? Aaahhh!!!!!!! Bye guys!

K- I'm glad my boyfriend's normal.

S- Yeah, Jason is one of the few who isn't a TOTAL Neanderthal.

G- Some things never change huh Sharpay? OMG run Taylor run!!!!

K- No wonder Ryan is weirded out by our group.

HSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSM

This is starting to get annoying. If Sharpay takes this from me one more time, I will burn her Big Bird dress, and her pink bathrobe. (Her two favorite items of clothing, along with her Chanel purse.)This time, I'm going to hide it in one place, I know Sharpay will never go: my underwear drawer, under all my boxers. Well, Sharpay's having another sleepover this weekend, so we'll see how it goes.

HSMHSMHSMHSMHSMHSM

S- Hey it's Sharpay again! And surprisingly this time, I didn't steal the notebook. We decided to play the "quiet game" at the sleepover (A/N: its where everyone sits in a circle, and you see who can be the quietest the longest. You can also try and make the other people laugh. I play it with friends all the time. Its loads of fun!) I convinced Ryan to get his notebook, so we could "talk" by writing down what we're thinking. So now, I'm going to pass it around.

T- Hey Taylor here! I don't really have anything to say. Chad, for your birthday, I'm going to give you about 7 cans of Axe. I don't think anyone sweats as much as you do.

G- Um, great conversation starter Taylor. I have an idea. Everyone tell me a story of something interesting that happened at East High, before I came.

Tr- How about when we had the fire drill and Zeke tripped, and ended up in the trash can. We never did figure out how that happened.

Z- Thanks for the reminder. That was actually quite painful…..and smelly. Kind of like Chad huh?

J- Ha ha, we're all ripping on Chad, and he doesn't even know yet. Another incident could be when Taylor corrected Ms. Darbus on that scene in Macbeth. Her face was so funny.

R- Yeah, that was probably the most insulted she's ever been. I got a good one. When Troy replaced the Star-Spangled Banner that Principal Matsui (sp?) used to play over the loudspeaker, with ACDC.

K- I have something that we can use, that all of us were involved in. how about the time Chad set Sharpay's hair on fire?

C- Oh I remember that! Ha that was good- hey!!!!! You were all making fun of me this whole time?!?!?!

S- My turn again! Hey that was good! Let's all get Chad! Lol! OMG I remember that!! What a careless jerk!

T- Okay, I guess I'll start the story. We had science lab, and had to do something with fire. I don't remember what. Anyway, Chad and Sharpay got paired up. Okay, next person.

G- OMG, how did you start her hair on fire?!?!

Tr- Hey good one Kelsi! Ha got ya Chad! Okay, Chad was supposed to use a match to start the Bunsen Burner going, because it was an old one that needed to be lit manually. (A/N: I don't know if that's true, but let's go with it.)

Z- I was actually talking to Chad, so he wasn't paying attention to what he was doing and-

J- He was waving the match around, while it was lit, and it hit Sharpay's hair. Then-

R- It lit almost instantly, and Troy, who was sitting across the table from them yelled, "Sharpay, your hair is on fire!"

K- Glad you all liked my idea. Then Chad grabbed the bucket of water, and tossed it at Sharpay, somehow completely missing her, and soaked Taylor instead.

C- And the teacher never noticed a thing! She was a sub, so she wasn't completely sure what she was doing, and at the time was talking to Kelsi-

S-Yeah the sub didn't know what she was doing, she let YOU use a match unsupervised! Well then Ryan grabbed his bucket, and got my hair in it, FINALLY putting out the fire.

T- Sharpay and I went down to the nurses station, where Sharpay had to get part of her hair cut off, and I had to get dry clothes, thank you very much Chad. The end.

G- ………………omg. You guys are completely crazy. Ha-ha that was the best story ever! None of my old schools were ever that exciting!!

Tr- Oh, Chad is laughing! He lost! New game! Group truth-or-dare.

Z- Okay, we'll do truth first. Have you had your first kiss, and who was it with?

J- Okay, you all (except Gabriella) should know mine, because I was so excited I ran into school yelling, "I KISSED CATHY BERENSON!!"

R- Yeah I remember that. Sharpay don't make that face. I HAVE kissed someone believe it or not. Does Sharpay have to read this? I guess so. Cindy Gering, who belongs to our country club.

K- Yes. Jacob Voegt, an old friend of mine.

C- Yeah man! Jennifer Blushi all the way!

S- WHAT?!?!?! WHEN DID YOU KISS HER RYAN?!?!?!?! And why didn't you tell me?! Grr. Well, I did kiss a boy. Randy Hanson, who did a play with me once. You haven't heard the end of this Ryan.

T- Gee, I wonder why he didn't tell you Sharpay. Okay, yes I kissed a boy. I know Chad is going to get mad, but oh well. Timothy Algiers.

G- Don't worry Taylor, Troy is going to be jealous too, although he doesn't know the guy who I kissed. Gary Clark.

Tr- Um, I have kissed a girl. I think my first kiss was with Caitlyn Atwood, in like 3rd grade.

Z- Okay, I guess I have to do this too. My first kiss was with Rachel Rae. (A/N: Rachel Ray. A cooker/baker etc. Ring any bells? Lol!) Hey pizza's here! Let's eat!

R- Well, there you have it. My friends totally manipulated my notebook a couple times, but now that I think about it, I'll have some memories, and will be interesting too look back on someday!

A/N: Well, that was chapter two! I think the next chapter will be Kelsi being inspired by what Ryan wrote, and writes how she helped things along too. Read and review!! I love reviews! They can seriously make a persons day. Especially if that person is flunking math, and has only a couple days to raise her grade. lol, jk!
