Chapter 9
At the dance...
Sharpay and Zeke walked in the dance hand-in-hand. Ryan had to go pick up his date, Martha Cox. As they walked in, some bone head tried to be funny. "Hey! Looks like the cupie doll got a date after all!" he yelled out. Zeke was about go over there and give that guy a piece of his mind, but Sharpay stopped him.
"No, Zekie, I got this, alright? You go ahead," she said. Zeke nodded and went to find his friends. Sharpay walked over to the guy and whispered in his ear, "Don't make fun of me seeing that you're sitting here dateless. Now, unless you want to be wearing three shoes, I suggest you keep your mouth shut. You know I can make it happen. 'K, Pumpkin?" Then she pinched and twisted his cheek really hard and walked away. The boy walked away rubbing his cheek.
Sharpay saw Zeke over with all of his basketball buddies. She walked up behind him and put her arms around his waist. "Handled it," she said. Zeke turned around and smiled. Then he pulled Sharpay in front of him. All the guy's eyes went wide when they saw her.
"Whoa…" they all said. Their dates hit them in the back of the head.
Sharpay smiled and giggled. Then she caught Troy's eye and smiled even more. 'Sharpay looks so beautiful tonight,' Troy thought. 'Way better than Gabby.' Then he cleared his throat and said, "You look nice, Sharpay."
Sharpay smiled. "Thank you," she said. Troy smiled back.
"Hey, dude! Stop checking out my date!" Zeke exclaimed. Troy thought he was serious until he saw the smile on his face.
Just then, Chad said, "Who's ready to dance!" They all cheered and grabbed their dates. They walked out to the dance floor.
As they walked, Sharpay asked Zeke, "You remember the plan?"
Zeke nodded and said, "Yep."
Sharpay smiled. "Alright. Here we go," she said.
Zeke smiled and said, "Bring it."
