Hey, sorry it took so long!! writers block, and no time to write. what a great combination. well, this is the chapter where ryan talks with chad and taylor (chaylor is the BEST couple in hsm!!!) instant message style. just 2 let u kno, taylors stands 4 "Scolastic Decathlon girl 2 plus 2 equals 4", chads is "old school fro" and ryans is "triple threat hatter." expect flirting, fun, and all that good stuff in this chapter. Enjoy!!

R- Hey me again. Word travels fast around East High. Well, Kelsi happened to be talking to Gabriella, about what I was doing, who in turn told Taylor, who in turn told Chad, who in turn told just about everyone on the planet. So now, Chad, Taylor, Jason, and Zeke want to tell their version. I'm not gonna try and do all of them at the same time, so Taylor and Chad decided they would do it together. (Surprise surprise, huh? I thought so too.) So, Chad didn't want to have to write his out, so we met online, and blocked everyone else out of our contacts, and met in a chat room to work on this.

sdgal224 is Taylor

oldskoolfro is Chad

triplthreathatter7 is Ryan.

Triplthreathatter7: hey guys.

Oldskoolfro: 'sup?

Sdgal224: hey boys.

Triplthreathatter7: okay, im guessing you guys have already seen the movie?

Oldskoolfro: well, yeah. who woulda thought sum1 else on this planet had hair like mine? is that kewl or wut!

Sdgal224: it's a scary thought thats for sure!

Oldskoolfro: ha ha very funny taylor. its surprising that someone could, um…….dang i cant think of an insult!!

Sdgal224: theres a first.

Triplthreathatter7: sigh

Sdgal224: sorry ryan, we'll stay on track now. right chad?

Oldskoolfro: um, sure yeah, what she said.

Triplthreathatter7: okay. in the beginning. chad, is there anything you can say about what u were doing rite in the morning on the day back 2 skool?

Oldskoolfro: i was playing keep-away with a hot cheerleader

Sdgal224:  clears throat significantly

Oldskoolfro: sorry. i mean, i was trying to keep that cheerleader ami from stealing my beloved basketball away from me. she always does that, and it really gets on my nerves. happy now?

Sdgal224: as a clam.

Oldskoolfro: that sounded really mature coming from me, if i do say so myself.

Triplthreathatter7: so mr. mature, explain this please. why does a 16 year old junior in high school, whose mature and cool, quote from Toy Story?

Oldskoolfro: …

Sdgal224: omg! hahahahahahahahahaha lol lmao!!!!!!! xd :P  that was an awesome question ryan!!! hahaha!

Triplthreathatter7: well, i personally didnt think it was that funny taylor, but okay.

Sdgal224: well, it finally proves my point about Neanderthals. no offence or anything chad.

Oldskoolfro: right.

Sdgal224: whaddya wanna bet hes blushing?

Triplthreathatter7: and stammering to himself, denying it.

Sdgal224: and getting mad, because we're guessing it right.

Oldskoolfro: IM NOT BLUSHING STUTTERING OR MAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IM RIGHT HERE, READING WHAT YOURE SAYING!!!!!!!

Triplthreathatter7: well, im pretty sure you're not blushing or stuttering, but i would reconsider the "mad" part of it.

Sdgal224: you can read? jk.

Oldskoolfro: lets get on with the story please.

Triplthreathatter7: hey, thats my line.

Oldskoolfro: well, then ur lovely sister pushes her way through us, and zeke made the appropriate crack about the "ice princess" and i was inspired.

Sdgal224: inspired to insult someone. theres an inspiration.

Oldskoolfro: have you ever seen her locker?! besides being pink its absolutely covered with mirrors on the inside. she probably needed some for her room, so thats wut i thot she wuld b doing over break.

Triplthreathatter7: actually, the only thing she bought over break was clothes i think. like she needs any more.

Sdgal224: xd. well, then they all start….howling at chads comment, and they did sound like animals, so thats why I said wut I said.

Triplthreathatter7: one thing I will never understand: how u managed to look excited that the school day was starting.

Sdgal224: its how you get before a performance. if ur good at something, and you enjoy it, u obviously get excited about it. same with chad and a basketball game.

Triplthreathatter7: um, rite.

Oldskoolfro: basketball and drama club are after-school activities. thats the main reason we like them, is because they aren't during the school day.

Sdgal224: wutever. well, then ms. darbus starts out with the announcements.

Oldskoolfro: btw, I was laughing u, cuz u looked so excited about the skolastic decatholon thing, it was just funny.

Sdgal224: sigh u spelled scholastic decathlon wrong.

Oldskoolfro: now u kno y im not on the team.

Sdgal224: that's 4 sure.

Triplthreathatter7: ahem troy gets 6 people detention. any comments on that?

Sdgal224: real smooth.

Oldskoolfro: even tho hes my best friend, I have 2 agree w/u. even tho it wuz kinda my own fault 4 getting myself detention, although I wuldnt have had that problem if try hadn't had his stupid cell phone out in the first place. then taylor goes and totally insults me.

Sdgal224: i apologized for that already. I didn't think darbus would actually hear me, but she must have had much practice with hearing things her students say.

Oldskoolfro: yeah, I wonder how old she is. we should try and figure that out someday.

Sdgal224: ha-ha sure.

Triplthreathatter7 is away.

Oldskoolfro: hey where'd he go? hes 'sposed 2 be doing this w/us.

Sdgal224: no idea. maybe sharpay kicked him off. we should try and continue tho.

Oldskoolfro: k, next time you see me is bball practice. troy starts talking about doing the musical wich is really weird. and the reason I hate musical music is cuz wen I wuz younger, my grandmother made me watch the sound of music with her about a million times wenever I went over 2 her house. its just horrible.

Sdgal224: well, I personally don't mind it, but I wouldn't want 2 actually go and perform in one. next, we had math (A/N: I'm guessing it was math they had. I don't kno with all the lab equipment, but let's just go with math.) I honestly dont kno how sharpay expected 2 get thro it wile trying 2 talk 2 every1, but then gabriella corrected the teacher wich surprised me. i had been thinking that was wrong, and was trying 2 go thro it 2 find the answer, but she beat me to it. that's wen I got a clue that gabriella wasn't wut we all thought she was.

Oldskoolfro: a genius.

Sdgal224: not quite, but close. this was proven true, wen I found those sheets of her in my locker.

Oldskoolfro: u kno, if she had been the one 2 put those in ur locker, that would seem as if she was kinda showing off, like 'ooh look how smart I am, look at all the awards I won.'

Sdgal224: yeah I guess ur rite. I wuznt thinking of that tho. I was thinking how great it wuld be if she was on the team.

Oldskoolfro: then it was our fav part of the day, the part we had been looking forward 2 the whole day long: detention.

Sdgal224: at least you didn't have 2 paint in ur nice school clothes. u got 2 sit around in a tree. gabriella, sharpay, ryan, and I had 2 paint.

Oldskoolfro: well, sharpay didn't really paint.

Sdgal224: true. well, wen I found out I would b workin w/gabriella, I grabbed the sheets out of my backpack, and assuming that she had wanted to join the team, I told her she could. then she acted like she had no idea what I was talking about. she obviously recognized the sheets. then sharpay comes up, and is like, all nice 2 me all of a sudden, whereas she never talked 2 me b4 if she could help it.

Triplthreathatter7 is online

Oldskoolfro: dude, where were u?

Triplthreathatter7: my mom came home from the grocery store, and I had 2 help her unload the groceries.

Oldskoolfro: kk ic.

Triplthreathatter7: I wuz actually here 4 a while, watching u guys talk. not 2 bad. for amateurs that is.

Oldskoolfro: thnx! well, then ms. d is all "cell phones suck" and I decided 2 try and take a nap.

Sdgal224: in a tree. rite.

Oldskoolfro: it worked, didn't it?

Triplthreathatter7: then troy started dangling the leaf in ur face.

Oldskoolfro: yeah. now, if that was the way my mom woke me up in the mornings, instead of yelling "chad get ur ass out of bed rite now, or ill dump this bucket of ice water over you!!! if u don't believe me, so help me god, I will prove you wrong!!!!!"

Triplthreathatter7: xd!

Sdgal224: haha my mom threatens me like "ill take away ur computer, or ill deliberately make you late for school!" stuff like that. wut bout u ryan?

Triplthreathatter7: well, if im late, she flips the mattress off the bed, with me on it, or has sharpay come in there, and threaten 2 dye my hair pink if I don't get up. however, im usually up b4 sharpay, and then I get 2 go in her room, jump on her bed, and tell her that ill tell troy she has a crush on him. she usually gets up with a scream then.

Oldskoolfro: pink huh? that reminds me of something. ryan, I have a question ive been meaning 2 ask u.

Triplthreathatter7: if its about my sexual orientation, I thought we already went over this. I AM AS STRAIGHT AS A BOARD! u want me to prove it? tomorrow skool, ill go up to taylor, and start making out with her!

Sdgal224: CHAD!!!! HES STRAIGHT!!! GET IT THROUGH YOUR HEAD!!!!

Oldskoolfro: FINE!!! I apologize!! and I admit you're straight! just don't kiss taylor. please!

Triplthreathatter7: I knew that would work! sneaky smile and good, cuz I didn't really want 2 kiss taylor either.

Sdgal224: prolly good thing 2. ud have the entire basketball team beating you up.

Triplthreathatter7: that's wat I thought. now back 2 the story.

Oldskoolfro: well, once coach got back, he gave us a lecture, as if we had wanted 2 have been in detention!!!

Sdgal224: and I tried to convince gabriella to join the sd team. but she would rather talk about troy.

Oldskoolfro: question.

Sdgal224: yes?

Oldskoolfro: where did u learn 2 speak "cheerleader?"

Sdgal224: my cuz is a cheerleader, and she jokingly taught me how to talk "cheerleader" one day wen she was visiting. we were cracking up the whole time though.

Oldskoolfro: the next day, ms. d was talking all weird. like our creativity had a "wingspan" or something. troy apparently thought she was serious or something.

Sdgal224: and when u were trying to follow him, well, lets just say u rnt the best spy in the world. but when u guys were running all over the place, it seemed like there should have been the mission impossible theme song going on or something like that!

Oldskoolfro: lol yeah. then the next day, we were about 2 go into the school, and we heard someone screaming. then someone cough cough ryan cough cough was yelling "maybe we'll get 2 meet ashton!!"

Triplthreathatter7: yeah and then after u got done laughing, it's all "WHAT?!?!?!"

Sdgal224: o chad got burned!! well then gabriella and I walked into the lunchroom, and it got deadly silent, and everyone turns and stares at us. gabriella thought they were staring at me!!! then she asks if its cuz of the callbacks. I was thinking yeah!! then she said she couldn't stand having people looking her, and I was thinking, then why did she audition? then everyone starts yelling and talking again. (in the movie, dancing and singing.) then

Oldskoolfro: the best part of all

Sdgal224: gabriella slipped on the milk she spilled, and dumped her fries on sharpay.

Oldskoolfro: I was howling wen I watched that in the movie!

Sdgal224: sharpay looked like she was gonna kill gabriella, so I had 2 get her out of there.

Oldskoolfro: and troy wanted to help her! I mean that was just plain stupid!! especially wen sharpay was that mad.

Triplthreathatter7: too true!

Oldskoolfro: then I tried 2 give troy a talking 2, but I don't think it helped all. then after our next practice, ms. d comes storming in, flapping her cape around. josh actually threw a towel at her, wich wuz pretty brave!! it was disturbing to have a female teacher in the locker room, while you were trying to get changed!! shudders

Sdgal224: then I gave gabriella a little background info on what sharpay was like, cuz she obviously needed it.

Triplthreathatter7: and what u said about her bumping me out; yeah she would do that.

Oldskoolfro: u should rebel!! tell her "screw you!!"

Triplthreathatter7: like I told, I think it was kelsi, I like my head how it is: on my shoulders.

Oldskoolfro: true. well, then troy missed practice again, and then what do u kno? gabriella shows up, and he starts flirting with her!! hes completely missing the point that she was the reason he was late again, and hes being nice to her!!! I don't get it. well, then coach Bolton came in, and started yelling at troy. next thing u kno, troy comes running out of the gym

Sdgal224: and in an act of utter desperation, chad comes running to me.

Oldskoolfro: well, u were one of gabriellas best friends at school, were head of that team, and u needed her as much as we needed troy, so it made sense.

Triplthreathatter7: plus u secretly had a crush on her.

Oldskoolfro: no, that was after I got 2 kno her. so we worked out a plan, and got 2 it.

Sdgal224: and who woulda thought that chad liked toy story and charlies angels? what a wide range of viewing material on the television!

Triplthreathatter7: viewing material??

Oldskoolfro: my thoughts Xactly.

Sdgal224: neway...that plan backfired, seeing as we almost completely destroyed troy and gabriellas faith in the opposite sex...not that that's a bad thing or anything, cuz u truthfully cant trust a guy completely.

Triplthreathatter7: hey!!!

Oldskoolfro: hey!!!

Sdgal224: no offence guys. after that encounter in the lunchroom, we only had 2 look each other, and realized that we had screwed up big time. so we set out to fix it. i had a hunch troy was up on the roof, because some of my friends in the science club were bragging that they gave troy bolton access to their secret zen garden. so I sent chad up there, and went in search of gabriella.

Oldskoolfro: I took jason and zeke with me, because they had helped, and i needed some support.

Triplthreathatter7: wimp.

Oldskoolfro: oh wutever. least troy seemed to have forgiven us first, and he did later after he tried some of zekes cookies, wich actually turned out 2 taste pretty good!!

Sdgal224: well, troy responded better than gabriella did. she basically tried 2 ignore us and the situation.

Triplthreathatter7: denial. then troy was all "romeo and juliet." u kno w/the balcony and stuff. good thing it didn't collapse.

Sdgal224: lol.

Oldskoolfro: u spend way too much time in the theatre man. well, troy was awesome in practice after that.

Sdgal224: same with gabi.

Oldskoolfro: and even our cliques were getting along, wen the evans had 2 go and ruin everything.

Triplthreathatter7: im right here u kno. I can see wut ur saying. and I remind u: I didn't want 2 have nething 2 do w/it.

Oldskoolfro: yeah we kno. then I actually thought that we should turn the sprinkler on in the gym, but we changed it 2 turning the power off instead. much less messy.

Sdgal224: everything worked like a charm 2. btw, loved the "pi pie!!!!" it was adorable!!! (A/N: I thought it was anyway!) about the equation. ur faces were funny. when u saw the equation it was like "what?" but we flipped it over to big bold letters, and suddenly "Oh!!!!!!" something on ur guys brain level!

Triplthreathatter7: haha true!

Oldskoolfro: ha-ha very funny. well, finally it was game time!! everything went as planned! watching them sing, was surprisingly enjoyable! who woulda thought?

Triplthreathatter7: told ya the theatre was fun and interesting.

Oldskoolfro: yeah, yeah whatever. then I saw later troy wuz about 2 kiss gabriella, and I just had 2 intervene. it was perfect.

Sdgal224: and rude!!!!

Oldskoolfro: ha I thought it was funny! and then I asked taylor out, without even thinking about it.

Sdgal224: we had a good time at the party though.

Oldskoolfro: yep, especially the slow dancing.

Triplthreathatter7: ooookay, I think im gonna sign out now, before things get over pg rating. thank for ur time guys, and ill see u skool 2morrow!!

Sdgal224: bye ryan!!

Oldskoolfro: cya man!! wasn't as bad as I thought it was!! ha jk.

Triplthreathatter7 has signed off.

Oldskoolfro: so taylor, u kno that new restruant that opened down on Elmwood?

Sdgal224: yeah.

Oldskoolfro: wanna go w/me 2 eat there on Friday?

Sdgal224: sure, sounds like fun!! cya 2morrow!

Oldskoolfro: bye!

Oldskoolfro has signed off

Sdgal224 has signed off

R- Well, there you have it. Chad and Taylor's version. Lots of flirting going on, if I do say so myself. Who knew that Chad was so eager to keep the story going? Oh well, I guess that was a good thing. Well, tomorrow is gym, math, and no study hall day. What fun, huh? I'll write more later. Bye!
