Chapter Five: The Mysterious Note
Haylie was getting her stuff out for first hour when she realized something was wrong.
Seriously wrong.
Her first clue was when she stepped in the door, people looked at her, with glares on their faces.
What did I do? she thought, as she took her usual seat behind Gabriella, and infront of Troy. But, as she was settling in, someone said:
"This is not your seat."
She was surprised to see Gabriella looking down at her, with Troy behind her.
"Of course it is...you said it was." Haylie explained.
Gabriella shook her head.
"Sorry, Haylie."
Haylie was confused as ever as she got out of her seat, and moved to the seat that was open: behind Ryan, and infront of Sharpay.
Sharpay looked at her, and gave her a smile.
"You have no where to sit?"
Haylie nodded, and Sharpay's smile vapored.
"Well, I'm sorry, you can't-"
"Sharpay."
Ryan entered the conversation then.
"If Haylie has no where to sit, then let her sit here."
Sharpay folded her arms, and muttered, "Fine."
Haylie threw Ryan a grateful smile before sitting down.
"Thanks. I don't know what is up with Gabriella today..it's not like her at all."
Haylie saw Ryan's expression change to friendly, to confused.
"Oh. Yeah...well...I wouldn't know."
Haylie raised an eyebrow.
"Ryan, is there something your not telling me? Because if there is, I want to know."
Ryan shook his head.
"Everything's fine, Haylie."
Haylie looked confused.
"Ryan-"
But, she was cut off by the bell.
All through class, what Ryan told her was what all she could think about. After the end of class, Haylie tried to see if she could catch Ryan, but she couldn't.
She sighed, and headed towards her locker to her stuff for second hour when a note fell out.
Being curious, she bent over to pick it up, and it read:
Haylie,
Meet me in the qaud before the second bell. I need to tell you something.
Ryan
Haylie quickly closed her locker, and flew to the qaud, where Ryan was eventually waiting.
