Author's Note: So, I know the song chapter is a totally corny move, but I had to fit it in somewhere right? I mean, I wasn't going to write an HSM story without having Gabby and Troy sing. So, here's a chapter that'll really get stuff rolling especially on Portman and Sharpay. Also, its Julie's turn to feel guilty. Anyway, enjoy the chapter!

Disclaimer: Ducks and HSM go to Disney, Sun and Moon goes to Miss Saigon and Boubil and Schoenburg.

Chapter 6: Sun and Moon

You are sunlight and I moon
Joined by the gods of fortune
Midnight and high noon
Sharing the sky
We have been blessed, you and I

Gabriella's voice was soft as she stood at the Karaoke mike singing a song that Ryan had randomly selected for her and Troy to sing.

"It's a game we play," He explained, "Someone picks a duet, and we see if they can handle it."

"This summer," Martha laughed, "We made them do Summer Lovin like seventeen times. Just to get a laugh." Everyone smiled, there was something incredibly sweet about the pair that was standing singing in front of them. Julie and Chad were sharing a couch towards a side corner talking.

"So when'd you meet him?" Chad asked her. They were talking about Taylor and Adam, both of them, though not wanting to admit it, to remind themselves about their relationships.

"When we were thirteen," she smiled, "We played in the Junior Goodwill Games. Adam was sweet and shy. I liked that. Most of the guys asked me out, he didn't." She laughed, "But I liked him, not the others, so I asked him out, and he said yes. We've been together ever since." She looked down. "I miss him. What about you? When'd you meet Taylor?"

"A million years ago," he laughed, "We've been in school together forever, but it wasn't until last year that she was willing to admit that I was evolved beyond Neanderthal."

"Got it," Julie smiled. "Gabby said she's really smart?"

"She's completely brilliant," Chad said, "She's going to like cure cancer or something. She wants to be a research scientist."

"Wow," Julie looked, down. Even if she didn't have a boyfriend, could she possibly compete with a girl like that?

You are here like a mystery
I'm from a world that's so different
From all that you are
How in the light of one night
Did we come so far?

"You definitely don't need help," Adam laughed, looking over Taylor's work. "You totally have this."

"I'm good at science," she shrugged, and looked over his. "Yours is right too." She put it down. "Thanks for doing this, you probably had something way better to do with your Saturday night."

"Not really," Adam shook his head. "With Julie gone and everything." Taylor nodded. "Although," He said thinking, "There's this big party, there always is the first Saturday back. I was going to skip it, but if you wanted to,"

"I'm not really a big 'party girl'" Taylor air quoted.

"Oh I'm not a party guy," He laughed, "But my friends'll be there. If nothing else it will be funny." She smiled. "What?"

"You're sweet," she said. "Has anyone ever told you that?"

"Julie," he said, "Like seven times a day." Taylor nodded, remembering that Adam had a girlfriend, who he was obviously in love with, so there was no reason to doubt that he sincerely just wanted to be her friend and make her feel welcome.

"So," she packed her books away, "Do you have a car or what?"

Outside day starts to dawn
Your moon still floats on high

"Hi," Portman said, seeing Sharpay walk across campus.

"Wow," She shook her head, "You're either really stupid, or really horny."

"It's a little of both actually," he laughed, "Look, I wanted to apologize for earlier. I get a little into myself occasionally." She stared at him. "If you knew me, you'd have thought it was funny."

"But I don't know you," she said and nodded.

"We could change that," He shrugged. "Look, I'm on my way to this party, its going to be fun, you should come."

"With you?" She raised her eyebrows.

"Do you see anyone else offering to bring you to a party?" He looked around. "It didn't take you long to make enemies Sharpay."

"People are just jealous." She shrugged. "Can I drive?"

"It's a stick," He looked at her and smiled, pulled out the keys and dangled them in front of her. "Can you handle that?"

"Absolutely," she grabbed them. She walked in front of him and turned around. "Are you coming?"

"I think I'm in love!" He smiled and walked after her.

The birds awake
The stars shine too
My hands still shake
I reach for you
And we meet in the sky!

"He likes you," Martha sat down next to Julie, Chad had gotten up to get a drink.

"He has a girlfriend," Julie shrugged.

"You know that doesn't always stop guys," Martha raised her eyebrows. Julie sighed.

"I have boyfriend," she said. "I'd rather cut off an appendage than hurt Adam. I love him."

"Julie," Gabriella came over, "We have to go, Troy needs to be in by 11 and,"

"Oh if you're not ready yet," Chad walked over, "I could take you home later."

"Chad, you don't have a car," Gabriella sighed. "But you know what you do have?"

"Give it up Gabby," Chad rolled his eyes and walked away.

"Let's just go." Julie said standing up, "It's fine."

"I'm glad you talked me into this," Taylor said, as Adam brought her a drink sitting on a couch at the party. "Sometimes I get a little tunnel visioned."

"I know how that is." Adam nodded. "I used to get like that too. Then when I almost permanently injured myself, I learned to mellow a little bit."

"That makes sense," she smiled. "When'd you get hurt?"

"Thirteen," he said, "Junior Goodwill Games, first game verse Iceland, a guy hit my wrist with his stick. Our coach was sort of slacking so when he didn't notice I decided to just play through the pain."

"Last year," Taylor topped him, "Gabriella wouldn't join the scholastic decathlon team, so Chad and I plotted a complicated highly technical scheme to break her and her boyfriend Troy up."

"Freshman year," Adam smiled, "I got put on Varsity, and I ignored the Ducks for month."

"End of last year," Taylor said, "Getting us jobs, Troy ended up doing it, but I conducted the most thorough search."

"Age 10," Adam tried, "Switched teams, for fear that without betraying my friends, father and older brother, I would have to give up hockey forever."

"This summer," She said, "I was sure that Sharpay was trying to get Troy, and I refused to pay attention to anything else, and you know something, I was right."

"You win." He said. "I've never discovered the evil plot of a hell demon." Taylor laughed.

"How did you know that Sharpay was a hell demon?" She smiled.

"I listen when you talk," Adam said quietly.

Made of

"Drink?" Portman brought Sharpay a cup, she looked at him. "It's pink, see?" She looked at it and laughed, taking the cup and then a sip she coughed.

"Wow," she said. "That's strong!"

"Ah," he said, "Yeah, sorry, Fulton mixed it, he's not so good at balancing."

"Its alright," she said disdainfully, "Just warn me next time." She took another sip.

"You actually drink vodka?" He said, she shrugged.

"What was this like your bad girl test, Portman?" She rolled her eyes. "You bring a girl a Vodka Cranberry and see if she'll drink it."

"What makes you think I like bad girls, Evans?" He smiled, "Maybe it's my nice girl test. I bring a girl a Vodka cranberry and see if she won't drink it."

"What makes you think that a nice girl can't hold her liquor?" Sharpay downed the rest of the drink.

"Guess I'm driving home." He laughed.

"Someone got her out," Guy laughed as he and Connie walked into her and Sharpay's room. "You know what that means." Connie giggled and they toppled back onto her bed kissing.

"This is going to be harder this year," Connie sighed. "Because,"

"Julie's not always going to be in Charlie and Adam's room," Guy nodded, "Because Charlie's always in Linda's room,"

"Exactly," Connie laughed, "Sharpay probably won't have anybody." Guy sighed. "Oh what?"

"You're like obsessed!" He sat up. "Cons, I get it, you miss Jules, and you don't like her, but please don't let it ruin our Saturday!"

"You're right," She said, "I'm sorry," she put her hands on his neck, "Now, where were we?" He smiled and kissed her, going horizontal again, and moving his hand up her shirt.

"Probably the worst though," Sharpay giggled, stumbling from Portman's car to the dorm, they were now in the hallway, right outside of Sharpay and Connie's room. "The absolute worst, was when she spilled cheese fries on my shirt. The little,"

"Evans, shh," He hushed her. He was no stranger to sneaking drunk girls back into the dorm, but Sharpay was particularly noisy, "We'll get into trouble."

"You're really kind of great," she said, putting her arms around her neck, "And I mean, you know that you're really hot right?"

"You're drunk," He laughed, "But I'll take the compliment."

"I'm not that drunk," She laughed and kissed him. He kissed her back. It escalated to a full on makeout, Sharpay's back pressed against the door and he moved his hands around her and started kissing her neck, he turned the knob, and the door fell open from the pressure of the two of them pushing.

"Oh my God!" Connie said, pulling out of Guy's arms. "Sharpay?"

"Portman?" Guy laughed. Portman pulled out and smiled sheepishly at them.

"Hi," Sharpay giggled, "You must be Guy?" She pointed.

"I must be going," He said and kissed Connie, "I'll see you tomorrow?" She nodded.

"Yeah," Connie nodded. "Hi Portman."

"Hi," he said, "I'll go." He left the room. Sharpay giggled and sat on her bed.

"Dean Portman?" Connie asked.

"No boy has ever kissed me like that," Sharpay said, and then looked over confused, "Actually I've never been kissed, ever."

"Hell of a way to start," Connie nodded.
