Mr. Wilhelm was a particularly boring teacher and the only think that kept Gwen awake was Ryan. He lightly nudged her every time she fell asleep. It was as if he did this all the time. He probably does this for Sharpay. He seems very loyal to her. Like a puppy. She looked over at Ryan then back to staring at her desk. A very cute puppy!

Gwen yawned and flicked a paper off of her desk, which hit Troy in the back of the head. She stifled a laugh as Troy turned in his desk to face her. Ryan looked from Troy to Gwen then back to Troy with a worried look on his face. "Knock it off!" Troy hissed. Gwen shrugged, "It wasn't me!" Troy shot a look at Ryan who shrugged also, "Wasn't me either!" Troy rolled his eyes and turned back around. Gwen elbowed Ryan and beckoned him to lean closer. "What?" He asked. "Give me your paper scraps!" She said. Ryan eyed her wearily before handing some to her.

She crumbled them up, smiling before pelting them at the back of Troy's head. Ryan instantly felt his sides double over in laughter. He kept his mouth closer tight, as Gwen motioned for Ryan to be quiet.

Troy turned around aggravated and glared at Gwen and Ryan. Both were smiling back at him. "Which one of you did it this time?" Troy growled. "I didn't. Did you Gwen?" Ryan asked turning to look at Gwen. "I didn't either, Ryan." She said calmly, which only made Troy provoked him even more. Troy faced the front once more.

Gwen clasped her hands over her mouth trying not to laugh, as Ryan put his head down on his desk. His shoulders heaved, suggesting that he was laughing as well. But as soon as Troy turned around they both were sitting up straight with a calm look on their faces. He eyed them suspiciously before looking away once more. Gwen grinned at Ryan and who smiled back.

The end of the day came sooner then Gwen expected and she was thankful for it. She had Ryan in her 8th period along with Sharpay. Guess we'll be spending the beginning of our day and end of our day together. She thought as she walked to her locker. Sharpay and Ryan parading in front of her.

"So, how do you like East High now?" Ryan asked as they all got to their lockers. Gwen looked sideways at Ryan then said, "I like it. A lot." Ryan looked over at her and smiled. "Have you decided if you were going to try out for the musical yet?" Sharpay asked. "I probably will." Gwen decided.

Sharpay and Ryan both beamed at the same time. "You'll just be blown away by me and Ryan's try out! We're singing the most amazing song! Isn't that right, Ryan?" Sharpay said haughtily. "Oh, definitely!" Ryan nodded. "But you'll have to wait and see what it is!" Sharpay said grinning.

At that moment a boy walked up to them holding what seemed to be a small basket of cookies. "Hi, Sharpay! Are you ready for our date? I baked you some cookies!" He said happily. Sharpay gasped and happily took the basket, "Oh yes, Zeke. I'm ready!" Gwen opened her locker and grabbed her book bag before dumping her books in it. She turned around to see Sharpay already eating a cookie.

Sharpay opened her purse and took out a key ring before tossing it to Ryan. "Don't wreck me car!" She said sternly. She turned to Zeke who grinned widely at her before the two walked off down the hall.

"So that's Zeke?" Gwen asked. "Yep." Ryan shrugged. He glanced over at Gwen before he said, "Hey, do you want a ride home?" "Yeah!" Gwen said excitedly, "But won't Sharpay be mad?" Ryan hadn't contemplated that and suddenly felt his stomach sink. "Well," He stuttered, "we do need to work on our Julius Caesar scene. I mean, I always have a A+ in drama class and I don't like to get anything below that! So we can just tell her that we working on that." Gwen hesitated about going. "C'mon!" Ryan pleaded. Gwen softened, "Well, alright."

They made their way out the school doors and walked through the maze of cars until Ryan pointed out Sharpay's. It was a hot pink convertible with a blazing white interior. The license plate read "SHARPAY", on the steering wheel her name had been engraved with her name in what looked like pink diamonds. "What a lovely car." Gwen joked. Ryan shook his head and they both got in the car.

"So do you think your parents will care if we practice at my house?" He asked. "Nah, their at work anyways." Gwen sighed, "What about your parents?" "Business trip." Ryan replied pulling out of the school parking lot. "So where do you live?" Gwen asked.

"Lava Springs Golf Course." Ryan replied. "Seriously?" Gwen cried. Ryan nodded. "I live there, too! My family just moved into 135 Evuns Dr!" She said.

"That's only 5 houses down from mine!" Ryan grinned. "Sweet." Gwen smiled, "I guess we'll be hanging out a lot more!" Ryan nodded. If Sharpay's feeling generous. They soon arrived at the Lava Springs Golf Course and went through the iron gate.
