Chapter 3: Trerrie? Damn, that sounds weird.

Troy Bolton laid on his bed. Rethinking about what had just happened. Gabriella… it sounded so perfect. Should he go talk to her again? I mean hey were basically neighbors now. 'But that doesn't give me the right to just go up to her house and talk to her … or does it?'

--

"Hey … look over there…" Sharpay said to Gabriella as she took another drink of her smoothie.

"Where? Why?" Gabriella asked.

"That guy over there is totally checking you out." Sharpay giggled as she distractedly pointed at the guy.

"Um.. No. I think he checking you out." Gabriella argued.

Sharpay looked confused. "Me?"

"Yeah… look." both of the girls started sneaking secretive glances at the guy. His skin was dark and had dark brown eyes too. He was really cute.

"Oh my gosh!" Sharpay squealed as she had noticed that he was checking her out.

"What do I do?" Sharpay suddenly panicked.

"Sharpay! Calm down!" Gabriella ordered between giggling.

"Sorry… it's just…"

"Oh my God… he's coming over here." Gabriella interrupted Sharpay.

"What the freaking French toast?!" Sharpay whispered-shouted.

"Shh…you dipstick! Oh my God… isn't he on the basket-ball team?" Gabriella urged just before the guy was standing behind Sharpay.

"Hey… name's Sharpay right?" the boy said as he stood besides Sharpay.

"Uh yeah…" Sharpay smiled sweetly but shyly at the guy.

"I'm Zeke … you know from the basket-ball team? You cheer for us…" Zeke rambled on.

"Oh my gosh… yeah… hi!" Sharpay remembered. She had once had a crush on him but she soon had forgotten when East High's newest student had entered the school. But now… she sort of liked him again.

"Well… I was wondering if you wanted to hang out someday…But if you don't want to I'll understand I mean," Zeke stated to ramble on again.

"I'd love to." Sharpay smiled.

"Really?"

"Yeah." Sharpay scribbled down her cell phone number on a napkin and handed it to Zeke.

"Cool…" Zeke sat down and Sharpay and him started talking away… of course forgetting Gabriella was sitting just across them. Gabriella, obviously bored out of her mouth and disgusted by their major flirting, started looking around the food court. Sudenly she let out a small gasp/yelp.

"What?" Sharpay asked snapping out of her conversation with Zeke. Gabriella didn't say anything but kept her eyes fixed on a certain person. Sharpay looked in the same direction as Gabriella trying to figure out the problem here. Then it clicked… It was Troy with Sherrie. Date. Major flirting.

"Ohhh… not good." Sharpay shook her head. Gabriella was still in trance.

"What?" Zeke asked obviously not getting it.

"Um well you see that guy…" Sharpay pointed at Troy. "he just moved here… so then Gabriella has sorta this major crush on him and now his dating the bitch… that's just wrong!"

"Sharpay!" Gabriella said in disbelief.

"Yeah?" Sharpay said confused.

"I don't think she wanted you to tell me that." Zeke whispered to Sharpay.

"How could you tell him? I thought this was a secret!" Gabriella said.

"Um… you never said it was…"

"Well isn't obvious when your friend tells you who she likes that she wants it to be kept a secret?" Gabriella explained raising her voice just a tad bit.

"Ohhh so you do like him!" Sharpay clapped excitedly.

Gabriella's mouth went open in disbelief one more time. "Totally not the point here Shar!"

"But you do like him! You just said so!!" Sharpay clapped again.

"Urgghh! Do you know how hard is to get across an argument with you?" Gabriella giggled slightly. She wasn't mad at Sharpay… just frustrated.

"Hah buddy… good luck with her." Gabriella said to Zeke.

"What's that supposed to mean?" Sharpay asked.

Gabriella laughed. "I'll leave you two alone… so I can do some of my work as my newest job… spying on Bolton."

"Dun dun dun!" Zeke said making a 'sound effect'.

"What was that?" Gabriella asked.

"A sound effect you know, just thought it would go with the moment." Zeke shrugged his shoulders.

Gabriella sighed. "Good-bye you two."

"Bye Gabi! See you later." Sharpay waved at her as Gabriella grabbed her purse and headed to the closest table to Troy's and Sherrie's table.

"So… you played basket-ball…" Sherrie was saying in the most flirtatious voice and twirling a piece of her dirty blonde hair in the most flirtatious way there ever was. Exaggerate much? Not for Gabriella. She was as slutty as any girl could be. Truly amazing actually. But certainly not in a good way.

"Um yeah…" Troy chuckled slightly.

Then Sherrie caught Gabriella glaring at her. Gabriella didn't know she was glaring at her… she just was. Gabriella quickly turned around. Sherrie, getting the game, knowing Gabriella was spying on them, started flirting more and more. Laughing and giggling for no reason. Telling Troy he was so funny when he hadn't said anything. Basically making a fool of herself, but not knowing it. And it scared Troy.

Gabriella busted out laughing at that image. Sherrie stealing secret glances at Gabriella while twirling her hair and giggling, Troy looking as uncomfortable as he'll ever look. It was hilarious.

Gabriella decided to leave. She grabbed her purse once again and headed home. She assumed Zeke would be taking Sharpay home. But she had to do something about Sherrie/Troy.

'Trerrie? Damn, that sounds weird.' Gabriella thought.

She had to make Troy some to his senses about Sherrie.

--

Few days later.

"But moooooooooom!" Troy whined. "Can't I just stay home?!"

"No Troy! It will make a good impression for us! I just joined the club. It's the first gathering of the summer. It will be really nice! Plus, there will be other kids!" his mom insisted.

She had just joined a club where they had gatherings and talked amongst themselves, it was just to have a good time.

"Kids?"

"Your age Troy… please don't make this hard on me." his mom sighed.

"Come on… you get to dress up and … and… you can make more friends! Justin's going too." his mom pleaded. Justin showed up in the doorway stuffing his mouth with apparently food… but it was doubtful.

"What are we talking about?" pieces of chewed up food flew everywhere.

"The party… today." his mom informed.

"Ohhh right. Mom I can't go." Justin remembered.

"Ok." his mom said simply but kept pleading eyes on Troy.

"What the crap?" said Troy in disbelief.

"Your brother has made plenty of friends here, and that's the main reason I want you to go. To make friends. The only one I've seen is Sherrie. I'm not sure if I like this Sherrie girl. Neither does your dad." his mom explained.

"Ugh. This is so unfair. But ok… fine I'll go if that's what you want." Troy gave up. He knew his mom wouldn't stop on this. "And mom… Sherrie's my girlfriend so you're going to have to accept her someday." and with that he slammed the door to his room.

"Hey Sherrie… We've gone in three dates, and I really like you and I think your pretty cool. You're like the only one I've clicked with since I moved here. So… will you be my girlfriend?" Troy asked hopeful.

"Why of course Troy." Sherrie smiled triumphantly.

And that was how it had happened.
