Chapter 3

Troy sat behind Sharpay in their first class. While they were in class, Troy gazed at her and only listened when she answered questions.

Sharpay didn't know about this, though, but Ryan did. He had been watching Troy watch Sharpay. He decided to ask Troy why. He tapped Troy on the shoulder. "Troy?" he whispered.

"What?" Troy whispered back without turning around.

"You really like my sis, don't you?" Ryan asked.

Troy froze for a second. Then he whispered, "No. Why would you think something like that?"

"Because you can't stop staring at her," Ryan replied.

Troy froze again. 'How did he know that? Am I that obvious?' he thought."I don't stare at her," Troy whispered.

Ryan nodded and whispered, "Yes you do."

Troy really wanted Ryan to leave him alone. "No I don't," he said a little louder.

"Yes you do," Ryan said.

Troy turned around and exclaimed, "No I don't!" Everyone in the class looked at Troy. He sunk down in his seat.

"Mr. Bolton, we do not have time for you yelling out in class. Some people are trying to learn. Looking at your last test grade, you should too and staring at Miss Evans is not an exception. Now, no more interruptions!" Mrs. Darbus said to him.

The whole class started laughing. Sharpay turned around and looked at Troy. He sunk down further in his seat. He felt his face getting really hot. Sharpay turned back around after doing something that she rarely does. She smiled at him. Troy didn't see it, though.

She put her book up on her desk so it was standing straight up. She took out her 2-way.

I can't bleve u wer starin at mi!-Pay

She sent it to Troy. Troy's pocket started vibrating. He took out his phone. He hid it under his desk. He read the text.

Sharpay gasped and turned around. Troy was smiling at her. She turned back around.

WE, u M.J. wanna b. but I'll b tha 1 wit tha las laf! -Pay

Then she closed her 2-way and put it away. She started listening again. Troy closed his phone and put it away. He wondered what she meant about that, but he did know he wanted her to ask him to the dance. It's a Sadie Hawkins dance.
