Thanks to everyone who reviewed on my story! You guys are such a big help.
It took me a while to update; I've had dance competitions to practice for. Dance is a 24/7 commitment!
By the way, the new character that was mentioned in the summary is added in this chapter. Tell me what you think!
Chapter Two
Sharpay was walking in the school's empty hallway after going to the nurse. They had given her a peppermint because "her stomach was hurting". Out of all the things in the world, why would you give someone with a stomachache a peppermint? I mean, wouldn't you give them medicine instead of freaking candy? Sharpay thought as she walked through the hallway. She never really figured out why the nurses at school would do that. Then again, they probably knew Sharpay was faking it. After all, she looked perfectly fine.
Sharpay decided to spend the rest of the period in the girl's bathroom. She had no intention of going back in that stupid classroom only to hear Mrs. Davis talk on and on about the war, and listen to her talk about what a good student Gabi Montez is.
She walked into the bathroom and headed to the mirror. She searched through her pink Coach purse, trying to find her favorite lip gloss.
"You hiding out from Mrs. Davis again, Shar?" a familiar voice said. Sharpay turned around.
"Hey Trina, I take it you're hiding from Mrs. Drake." Sharpay said while she began to search for her mascara.
"Yeah. Today she was lecturing us on why we shouldn't have low self esteem." Katrina said. Sharpay laughed and Katrina rolled her eyes.
"God knows you don't have that problem." Sharpay said, looking at her friend. Katrina just smiled and nodded in agreement.
Katrina Taylors was the new girl. She had moved to Albuquerque from New York City in the beginning of the school year. She had long, straight blonde hair and bright blue eyes. Sharpay thought she would hate Katrina when she first saw her. She had reminded her of Gabriella in a weird way. Then Katrina joined the drama club. Sharpay was going to confront her, but for some odd reason, they had ended up talking about just about everything there was to talk about. It was that day that Sharpay realized that there was actually someone in the world that she could relate to besides Ryan. She and Katrina were exactly alike, with the exception of Katrina being nicer. They were best friends ever since.
"Gabi Montez annoying you again?" Katrina asked even though she knew what the answer would be.
"Duh," Sharpay responded dryly. Katrina looked hurt. "Sorry Trina, I'm just so pissed off with Gabriella. Why the hell should she get everything?" Sharpay asked Katrina hoping for an answer.
"Her life can't be all that perfect," Katrina said while she looked through her Proda purse for her lip gloss.
"But it is!" Sharpay practically yelled.
"Quiet; one of the teachers is going to come in here and bust us. And I am not, I repeat, am not, going to go listen to Mrs. Drake tell her class that we're all special in our own fucking special way!" Katrina said irritably. Sharpay laughed at Katrina. She rarely showed when she was mad, but when she did, it was bound to be hilarious.
"Oh, um, sorry about that. Guess I kind of got a little bit, well, pissed?" Katrina said, trying to think of a good word to describe how she felt.
"It's fine," Sharpay said. Just then the bell rang.
"Finally, class is over!" Katrina said.
"It's your free period too, right?" Sharpay asked. Katrina nodded her head. "Ok, then lets go see Kelsi. We really need to practice our singing. The musical tryouts are in two weeks, and either you or I have got to beat Little Miss Montez. I swear, if she gets a good part, I will officially crack." Sharpay said. Then the two girls walked out of the door and to the music room.
