Chapter Three:
The night of the talent show and I was sitting in my room reading Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. It was an interesting book. Sadly people were dropping like flies. It was quite sad too just with the whole fight between best friends, kind of like Ryan and me, but they were all friends again. It's a cool book, very dramatic. Especially the Snape part.
My mom walked in my room. "Are you comming to the talent show?" she asked. "To support your brother."
I shook my head and flipped the page of my book. "I'm reading." I stated.
"Sharpay, obviously your brother means more than a book."
"Wouldn't count on that." I said and kept my eyes and the words. "Now, could you leave?-You're breaking my concentration."
"Sharpay, that's it! You are comming to the show so get dressed now!" my mom hollered.
I looked up and her and slammed my book shut. "I'm done anyway! And leave then, I'll get changed and come." I sighed.
My mother left with a smile on her face. I stood up and picked an outfit out of my closet. I chose a silver, strapless dress that flowed past my knees; that had a matching silver purse and heels! I applied my make-up and put a silver se hairband in. Then I walked out.
"You'd think you were in the show, Shar." Ryan laughed.
I glared at him. "Oh, I am." I corrected him and gave him a dirty look. "And I will out-due you and those Wildcats."
He looked tooken back and I smiled proudly, taking my seat at our reserved table.
There were acts from the guests and some from the employees. The Sharpetts did something, didn't really quite catch whet it was, but it sure was...something. Well, let's face it. Their nothing without me.
Then, it was the Wildcats' turn. They did this whole colaborate mess that completely made no sense to me, but everyone seemed to love it, and clap and cheer and just go all gushy over the horrid performance!
"Amateurs." I sighed. My mom gave me a look, I just smiled innocently at her.
"And next, is our very own Sharpay Evans, doing something on her own!" Fulton announced.
I smiled and sat on my stool. And soft piano music from Kelsi began to play. "I always needed time on my own. I never thought I'd need you there when I cry. And the days feel like years when I'm alone. And the bed where you lie
Is made up on your side
"When you walk away-I count the steps that you take. Do you see how much I need you right now?
"When you're gone! The pieces of my heart are missing you! When you're gone! The face I came to know is missing too.. When you're gone! The words I need to hear to always get me through the day.. And make it OK..
I miss you..
"I never felt this way before..Everything that I do, reminds me of you. And the clothes you left, They lie on the floor..And they smell just like you..I love the things that you do!
I grasped the microphone with both hands. "When you walk away
I count the steps that you take! Do you see how much I need you right now?"
"When you're gone! The pieces of my heart are missing you! When you're gone! The face I came to know is missing too! When you're gone! The words I need to hear to always get me through the day..And make it OK..I miss you!
"We were made for each other! Out here forever! I know we were! Yeah Yeah!
"All I ever wanted was for you to know, Everything I do I give my heart and soul! I can hardly breathe I need to feel you here with me! Yeah!"
"When you're gone! The pieces of my heart are missing you! When you're gone! The face I came to know is missing too! And When you're gone! The words I need to hear will always get me through the day...And make it OK...
I stood up by myself, with the microphone in my hand, and the other arm hugging my stomach. "I miss you..."
The audience gave me a standing ovation. I was beaming and curtsied. "Thank you Lava Springs!" I shouted into the microphone and curtsied again.
I took my seat back at my table. Tracie, Jill, and Kelly crowded around me. "Sharpay that was gorgous!" Tracie squeeled. "Nailed it! As usual!" Jill complimented. "You go girl!" Kelly laughed.
I smiled at them and hugged them. "Thanks." I thanked.
"Good job, Shar." Ryan congratulated me and held his arms out for a hug.
I nodded. "Thanks, but don't expect anything more." I spat.
He tilted his head down and shrugged. "Shoulda expected that from you." he whsipered.
I turned back to the girls and started giggling exitedly with them.
"And the Star Dazzler goes to!" I hears Fulton announce. "Our very own Sharpay Evans! Sharpay come up here and collect your award!"
I giggled and rushed up stage. "Thank you, Mr. Fulton!" I thanked! "I'd also like to thank my parents, my girls, and Zeke Baylor, the assistant chef who has bee absuloutly the greatest to me. Oh and of cours! I'd love to the my Yorkie, Prince! And all of the guest out there!"
I took my Star Dazzler and headed off stage giggling. Daddy gave me a confused look. "Why didn't you thank your brother?" he asked.
He just got back from work and obviously didn't know I wasn't speaking with Ryan anymore. "It's nothing, daddy." I lied and smiled, then looked back at the girls.
