Gracelynn's POV

As I walked down the hall, I see the posse my brother is in. He just spotted me, and boy is he surprised. I smirked and continued down the hall.The school fell silent as, a girl clad in all pink with her Sidekick phone in hand, came in. I ignored the likes of girls like that. They remind me of Eliza from Confession of a Teenage Drama Queen. Here's the room I saw a teacher sitting in her chair immersed in a book, must be the drama teacher, I thought.

"Excuse, Ms. Darbus?" I asked

"Yes." she said

"I'm new here, here's my file." I said

"Very well, now go take a seat."

Then, the pink girl came in, oh this is going to be a great year, I thought.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"There will be no drama classes tomorrow through next Friday. However, 9 days of dance classes will replace this gap in your schedule," Ms. Darbus announced.

"Dance class? I don't do dance," the pink girl scoffed.

"Fifteen minutes for you after SCHOOL. Any more questions, comments?"

The class was silent. I mean, with a teacher like that, who would be scared?

Then, the bell rang; I snuck out quickly making sure my brother didn't see me.

Much to my dismay, I found out that our lockers were next to each other, oh joy, I thought.

He walked up and opened his locker making it look like he wasn't talking to me, even though he was.

"So, Is there a reason why you're here?"

"Mom, got transferred you moron, if you came home last night instead of going out with your girlfriend, you would of known." Grace said irritated.

"My girlfriend's name is..." her brother said, but was interrupted.

"Come on, we have English, you know how coach is about grades."

"Yeah, I'll be there in a second." he called out.

"We will talk later." He said walking off.

Nobody's POV

Grace sitting in her next class, which was music, and it wasn't for another ten minutes. "You waiting too?" she heard a voice.

Grace hadn't even noticed somebody else in the room.

"Name's Kelsi, are you new here?"

"Technically, yes, I am. Name's Gracelynn Verde, but call me Grace or Gracie." Grace smiled.

She saw the pink girl's servant come into class, and then finally the rest of the class showed up.

----------------------------------------------------------

"Jocks over there, drama up there, and the mixed up gang over here. Come on, you can sit with me." Kelsi said dragging her over to the table at lunch.

"Guys, this is Gracelynn Verde, she's new here. Grace, here's Gabi, Sharpay, Taylor, Chad, Jason, Ryan, and Troy." she introduced her to the group.

"Hi," Grace said nervously sitting down taking her lunch out of the bag. She noticed everyone has a school lunch here; the food must be a whole lot better here than West High.

"So, where are you from?" Gabi asked trying to make conversation.

"I've lived here my whole live, I transferred from, uh, West." Grace said looking down knowing the reaction from the jocks.

"West?" Chad asked

"Yeah, I went for the dance program there, even though I live 4 blocks away, but since the teacher transferred, I changed too."

"Well, then, welcome to East High," the pink girl, introduced as Sharpay said.

The conversation continued for another half-hour until she excused myself. Grace found herself at her locker again.

"Your dance teacher transferred huh? Nice story." said a voice she knew all to well.

"It's not the whole truth or a whole lie, so build a bridge and get over it." Grace said rolling her eyes. "And remember no talking school hours, you're going to blow the secret."

Little did her brother know, Grace was correct, Sharpay or pink girl had seen then.

-----------

A couple minutes later...

"Oh my gosh, Gabi, I saw Troy talking to that new girl." Sharpay nearly screeched in the now empty 2nd floor girls bathroom.

"I bet he was just talking, he's entitled to do so."

"Third time today" Sharpay continued.

"What! How come I wasn't aware of this?"

"Something about this girl is fishy, and I'm going to find out what it is." Sharpay said dramatically.

"Let's follow her after school." Taylor said who had appeared out of nowhere.

"Yeah, Troy canceled on me during History today, he said he had to go home after school today."

"Likely story. Tootles" Sharpay said even more dramatically walking out of the bathroom.

----------------

Grace was in the clear, she was on her way to Central Middle School, and out of East High. Little did she know that Sharpay, Gabi and Taylor were trailing her. Grace sat in front of the middle school, which had let out an hour before, so the parking lot was completely empty. The three girls were all hiding on the side of building where no one could see them. All three of the girls gasped when they saw Troy's car pull up.

"I thought he had to go home?" Taylor said whispered unsure.

"Yeah he that's what he said." Gabriella said going pale.

During that conversation, Grace looked behind her making sure no one was watching she jumped in the car.

"Oh, that girl better watch her back." Sharpay said evilly.

-----------------

Three hours later, Grace was sitting at her park bench at East Central Community Park, when she heard someone come up and sat down.

"You go to East High, huh?" Grace asked out of the blue

Ryan was surprised that Lynn would know this, "Uhh, yeah. How'd you know?"

"You're in my music class and Kelsi introduced us at lunch, remember." she simply stated

"Yeah…"

"I got transferred last night. Right after we talked actually." Grace said staring at the sky.

"Weird. So, you're name is actually Gracelynn Verde?"

"Yep."

"There's no other Verde's at the school."

"Its my mom's maiden name."

"Oh." was all he said

"You want to know who my brother is don't you? Got to keep it on the DL, you hear me, not even Pink Girl can know." Grace stated.

"Pink Girl?" Ryan tried to hold his laughter.

Grace then shot him a look and he stopped laughing immediately.

"Fine, I tell you anyway, do you swear that you will never tell another living soul, unless I agree with it." She said seriously.

"Okay, fine, tell me." Ryan said finally.

"Not with that attitude." Grace smirked

Ryan rolled his eyes.

Grace whispered it into his ear, and Ryan's eye's got a big a saucers.

"You're kidding!"

Hope this is easier to read! Please review! Its pretty obvious now, but the plot...hmm.. mwahah...hmm...
