Chapter Five: Miracles Happen
Elaine was flying high, and of course, everyone knew the reason why she was so happy. Gabriella was happy as well, and of course, Sharpay kept saying, "Troy Bolton is not in my show!" Everytime she said that, she had a fierce face, however, Elaine and Ryan's relationship was starting out very bitter, and Gabriella and Troy's was up and down, but everyone knew that meant it's sweeter in the end. Gabriella and Elaine knew one thing though, miracles happen once in a while when you believe they will happen to you.
Miracles happen, miracles happen
You showed me faith is not blind
I don't need wings to help me fly
Miracles happen, miracles happen
Elaine was happy whenever she was cheering again, and she didn't care about anything else. Sharpay said to everyone in the Drama Club, excluding Ryan, "I'm gonna kill them for stealing my show! I will get my revenge!" Elaine wasn't really listening to all the rumors, because she stopped believing what people said to her, she didn't think anyone had a true rumor left. However, something still wasn't right and no one could place their finger on it.
I can't imagine living my life without you now
Not ever having you around
We found our way out
(On you I can depend)
Elaine held onto Ryan for her sanity, and believe in him. Gabriella wasn't in touch with Sharpay anymore. However, everyone was able to look around and say these things that where false about them, but Elaine and Gabriella held on, no matter what, with their boyfriends. Elaine's cheers had became happy and everyone said that the chemistry was finally reacting in Elaine and Ryan as they stopped bickering as much, Gabriella and Troy's chemistry stronger than ever. Love was in the air all around them.
Don't have to look back to realize how far we've come
There are a million reasons
I'm looking up
I don't want this to end
To them, faith isn't blind, it only sees what should be happening. Elaine ran home and slammed down a frame without looking at it, inside it was her old boyfriend's photo, but now she wanted to start fresh and new, without looking back on the bad. And she knew that the chemicals reacted after he looked into her eyes. Elaine didn't know what to do, she felt the first time a real love she can depend on. Why can't she stop this?
Gabriella and Troy was the thing on Sharpay's mind, she hated seeing Gabriella happy, and most of all, with Troy. Sharpay wanted Troy and she will stop at nothing to make sure her brother is back under her thumb, and Troy is in her arms. Sharpay smiled as she thought of another evil sceme, one that would surely break Elaine's high spirits. Elaine was parading around like she was the best thing that's in this school. Sharpay hated that and wanted to change that, but to change that, she needed to change her belief in miracles happening.
Nothin', nothin' should ever bring you down
Knowing what goes around comes around
You showed me faith is not blind
I don't need wings to help me fly
Miracles happen once in a while
When you believe
(Miracles happen)
You showed me dreams come to light
That takin' a chance on us was right
All things will come with a little time
When you believe
Sharpay's plan wasn't that hard to do, all she had to do was spread a rumor about Elaine using Ryan. She started by texting the worlds' second biggest gossiper, Hannah from the school's magazine. Sharpay listened at the door of the Editor's office, and hearing a gasp, she knew that it had started. She could hear Hannah talking to Rebecca, the gossip columnist, and she could hear her texting everyone. When Elaine entered the school the next day, she looked at everyone staring at her, and said, "Why is everyone staring at me?" Elaine looked into her mirror and said, "Huh, I don't see anything on my face." Elaine shrugged and went to her locker.
That's when on her way to her locker she stopped and took a look a the magizine on display and shouted, "WHO'S THE BIG LIAR? WHO TOLD THE EDITOR THIS?" Elaine took a look around with her death glare, and said, "I don't hear an answer!" Taylor said, "Zac told me." Then Zac said, "Anne told me!" Anne said, "Vanessa told me!" Vanessa said, "Sally told me!" Sally then accused Rebecca, who accused Hannah, who then stopped it at Sharpay. Sharpay looked like a deer caught in headlights. Elaine said, "Sharpay, how could you? And Ryan, I don't want to talk to you ever again!" She ran off.
Gabriella looked at Sharpay and said, "Just so you know, your named after a pug. And make a move on my boyfriend, you can kiss the fact you don't look like the pug you're named after goodbye!" She stormed off. Sharpay smirked and said, "I wouldn't think this jig is up yet!" She gave a crakle then regretted it, since she just got a facial peel the other day. "That hurt."
There's no question we found the missing pieces
Our picture is complete
It's fallen into place
(It's fallen into place)
This is our moment, you and I are looking up
Someone is watching over us
Keeping me close
Closer to you every day
Nowhere, nowhere on Earth I'd rather be
No one can take this away from you and me
Gabriella and Troy where disscussing what Sharpay had done, and Troy knew that Sharpay couldn't be finished, since Elaine wasn't the only one who was with someone that she wanted. Gabriella nodded and said, "But you won't leave me for her, will you?" Troy shook his head, he would rather die than hurt Gabriella. Little did he know that things would get bitter with Sharpay continuing to intervene into their lives. Free period came around and Elaine and Ryan where getting ready to makeup when Sharpay inturrupted them from kissing.
Elaine said, "Oh, well, I have somewhere to be anyway." She placed on a noticably fake smile and ran off before Ryan could say anything. That's when Ryan gave Sharpay the Evil Eye and took off after her. Sharpay smirked and went up to where Troy was. Sharpay smiled at Troy flirtasiouly, and said suductivly, "Hi, Troy." Troy rolled his eyes and slammed his locker door shut. Troy was about to walk off when Sharpay blocked him everytime he moved and then he said strained, "Goodbye, Sharpay." Sharpay couldn't seem to get the hint though.
You showed me faith is not blind
I don't need wings to help me fly
Mircales happen once in a while
When you believe
(Miracles happen)
You showed me dreams come to light
That takin' a chance on us was right
All thing come with a little time
When you believe
That's when Sharpay suddenly pounced on Troy and started kissing him. Troy, however, was trying to push Sharpay away, and that's when Elaine walked around the corner, and her mouth dropped all the way to the floor. Chad noticed this and said, "What's wrong, broke a nail?" He was getting ready to laugh when he saw a shocking sight, his best friend cheating on his girlfriend's friend! Chad rushed up to Troy and screamed, "WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING?" Troy said, "Trying to stop Sharpay's evil plan. Apperently, it was worse then I thought."
Sharpay said, "Later Troy." Troy shuddered and said, "What part of 'no' does she not get? And since when did she think it's ok to pounce on guys who have girlfriends?" Elaine said, "Appernetly, if the guy's name is Troy Bolton and is a star basketball player and is East High's golden boy, it's ok." She looked ready to throw up from looking at the sight. "Good luck trying to tell Gabriella the story," said Elaine before running off. "WAIT A MINUTE, YOU KNOW SHE WON'T LISTEN!" Chad said, "Same here." He took off. Apperently, no one wanted to give Gabriella the story.
When you believe
The soul is a shining light
When you believe
The heart has the will to fight
You can do anything, don't be afriad
We're gonna find our way
When Troy was going to Gabriella, he saw she had tears in her eyes while Sharpay was talking to her. Troy knew then that Gabriella was believing everything Sharpay said, and he turned around, knowing that it would be useless to convince Gabriella that Sharpay was lying to her. Troy felt his heart breaking, and realiezed he was going soft now, and he decided that he won't tell anyone about this. Troy looked back at Gabriella before thinking about what to do next. Of course, the stupid bell rung for the next period, and by then, everyone in the school knew about Troy cheating on Gabriella and no one except for Elaine, Chad, Troy, and Sharpay knew the truth. The only one who could change this would be Sharpay, but she didn't seem to want to.
Elaine was talking to Ryan about Sharpay, and Ryan was agreeing with every word. Elaine and Ryan still had chemistary, and they still where learning about this, but right now, they had to put this aside and try to meddle Troy and Gabriella back together. Ryan brought up that last time she meddled, Chad stopped talking to Taylor for three weeks and they had a mini-meltdown when they found out it was Elaine and Ryan who had meddled. Elaine said that this was different, Troy and Gabriella would be easy to piece back together, and Ryan argued that they already had begun a chemical explosion, and Elaine continued the agrument with that Troy and Gabriella are meant to be. Ryan said it would be stringing them along and would make Gabriella the most mad, and Elaine agrued that Gabriella couldn't do much about controling her anyway, so what was his point?
By then, Ryan gave up since he was sick of them always arguing about stupid things, and that one time, they even had a fight about if they were having a fight, Elaine said 'creative discussion' and Ryan said, 'heated debate' and then Elaine said it was a 'disagreement' and Ryan said, 'arguing,' then Elaine said, 'fight' and Ryan said 'arguing'.
But in the end, Elaine always won because Ryan would get sick of having the heated debates or whatever they were, and give up, agreeing with Elaine. That always made Elaine very happy, and now they were agruing over how they were going to meddle. Ryan said that there was no point in being disecret about it since everyone would find out anyway, and Elaine said that the key part of meddling is being disecret about it. Elaine won again, and then they argued about the plans, Ryan said that it should that Gabriella should know what happened from Elaine and Elaine said that they should tape what Sharpay says about her plans to Ryan.
Elaine won, and now they agrued on how they where going to tape Sharpay's plans. Elaine said the Ryan should act like a double agent when he's really a triple agent, and Ryan agrued that they should just tape her saying her plans to her cronies in this, but Elaine won again. Ryan said that he hated when she won everything they ever fight about. Elaine said they had to stage a big breakup in front of Sharpay, but they couldn't let anyone else know about it, and Ryan said that she couldn't believe it unless it was in front of everyone. For once, Ryan was right. Operation: Busting Open Sharpay's Evil Plans or BOSEP was in motion. Ryan made up the name since Elaine made up the plans for it.
In front of everyone at lunch, Elaine started an argument about Ryan's sister with Ryan. Ryan was improvising, saying that he couldn't turn his back on his sister, and Elaine said on the brink of fake tears that his sister was more important than her. Ryan agrued that wasn't true, he just couldn't ignore his sister, and Elaine said that if that's how he wants to go, then he should just go to his sister and that they were over. Elaine walked over to where everyone but Troy was and said to Chad, "Operation Busting Open Sharpay's Evil Plans or Operation BOSEP is in motion. Phase I complete. Phase II comance." She smirked and started eating her lunch.
Back with Ryan and Sharpay, Sharpay was babbling on about her plans as Ryan taped everything, apperently the plan's name was Take Out Gabriella and Troy and Take Back My Show or TOGTTBMS. Phase I was to take out Ryan and Elaine, but since that was done for her, she went on to Phase II, make out with Troy by force and make sure Gabriella finds out. Phase III was to get Gabriella and Troy out of the show and get Ryan and her back in the show. Phase IV was make Troy her boyfriend. Phase V was to live happily ever after without Elaine or Gabriella finding out.
Ryan smirked and texted to Elaine disecretly, $#3 f3ll 4 +#3 a+.

What is Phase III going to contain? I'm not going to continue this on, since there's no more to the song. The song is called "Miracles Happen (When You Belive)" by Myra. It's a good song, and next one is going to contain Phases III-VI (There's a lot of phases to this plan to keep it disecret, which you know won't happen, since something's bound to go wrong).
