Chapter 6: Designer Drama Disclaimer: I'm tired of explaining what I don't own. Can you guess by now what that is? That's right: High School Musical…and Lucas Grabeel! Can you guess what I do own? That's also right: the characters you don't recognize! You're good at this…and I still don't own Lucas! (sob)Chapter 6: Designer Drama

The next day, the girls met at school on campus wearing Cloe's designs, which they planned the night before. Rachael was wearing her hair up with a clip at the back of her head. She had on a rimmed white hat with silver gems Bedazzled around the rim and top of the hat and the word 'Squeakers' Bedazzled across the front in silver gems.

She also wore a white undershirt and a white tank top with the word 'Glamour' Bedazzled in silver gems across the front. The straps and bottom of the tank top were Bedazzled with silver gems. She had on a silver sequined belt, a pair of white capris Bedazzled at the top and bottom rims with silver gems. She'd painted her nails and toenails silver. She wore silver sandals with heels to match.

Cloe wore her hair down. She had on a rimmed pink hat with the word 'Angel' Bedazzled on in purple gems and a matching pink T-shirt that had the word 'Princess' Bedazzled in purple gems on the front. Over that, she wore a short blue jean jacket with a purple heart Bedazzled on the upper pocket.

She had on a pink belt with a purple buckle and jeans that had pink ribbons on the sides at the bottoms with a few purple gems Bedazzled here and there. She had painted her nails purple and was wearing purple pointed toed heels.

They took a look at each other. "Wow. We look absolutely fabulous." Rachael praised Cloe. "I know." she responded, "After all we should. I mean, I made the clothes and modified them." "Rock on, Angel." Rachael told her. "You, too, Squeakers." Cloe said.

They gave each other a high-five before starting to walk across campus. As they walked, heads turned. "I bet they're all surprised because no one's ever out-done Sharpay before." Rachael stated softly to Cloe. "That is…before us." Cloe corrected. "Exactly." Rachael agreed, "Well, more of before you. I'm just a model for a great designer."

They both giggled and walked inside with confidence. When they walked through the doors, they stopped and took a breath. "Well," Cloe stated, "here goes." "Ready to prove we're a shoe-in for drama?" Rachael asked. "Lets do this." Cloe nodded.

They continued walking through the hallways to their lockers. They grabbed their books and turned to each other. "Meet in the cafeteria at lunch. Same table as yesterday." Cloe told Rachael. "Got it." she responded. The bell rang and they headed off to class.

The morning went by very quickly. Before they knew it, it was the period before lunch. English with Miss. Darbis was boring, as usual, but worth waiting through. Miss. Darbis was going on about poetry and literature. This was actually the Junior's class, but Cloe was moved up to this class after her impressive grades from her old school.

"And can anyone tell me what poetry means to them as an example for tonight's homework?" Miss. Darbis was asking. Cloe sat in front of the room next to star basketball player, Troy Bolton, and another player on the team, Chad Danforth. Cloe raised her hand. "Yes, Cloe." Miss. Darbis called.

"Well, Miss. Darbis, poetry is necessary for nature to show its beauty. Necessary for humans to show emotions. Necessary for thoughts to be put into metaphors and similes to spell out the words I love you. Poetry is something that can't be misplaced or lost; it's something we all have inside of us. Poetry is an emotion we call love, that we cherish, and keep close to us inside our hearts." Cloe said.

Miss. Darbis beamed and started to tear slightly. "That was wonderful, truly wonderful. Every one lets clap. Pure poetry!" she stated. Everyone clapped. "Miss. Darbis. If that was poetry, wouldn't we all snap?" Cloe asked. "Ah, I see someone knows more about the theatre than they let on. It will be a pleasure to have you stay after school today with your friend." Miss. Darbis continued, "Everyone snap." They all snapped.

Then, the bell rang signaling lunch. Cloe gathered her books as everyone filed out of the room. "Very inspiring. Truly inspiring." Miss. Darbis added to Cloe as she got up. "Thank you." she smiled and left.

When she reached the cafeteria, she headed to the meeting table. Rachael was already there. Cloe sat down next to her. "Hey. Did you have Darbis yet?" Cloe asked. "Yep, she's excited to have us after school." Rachael explained. "I know. I had her this last period." Cloe stated and started to eat her lunch.

"What did you two do?" Ryan called approaching them. "What do you mean?" Cloe put on an innocent face and Rachael continued to eat her lunch. "Don't do that." he told her, "You two got detention? With Darbis?" Rachael choked and Cloe and Ryan looked at her as she took a sip of water. "What? No!" Rachael squeaked. "Back up, Drama Boy." Cloe told Ryan looking at him, "We didn't get detention, but we did do something."

"All right then, Cloe." Ryan said. "Hey, you used my name." Cloe realized. "That's a first." Rachael said a bit shocked. "There's a first time for everything." Ryan answered, "By the way, you guys look great!" "We should. I practically made these entire outfits." Cloe told him. "Awesome." Ryan agreed. "But you'll have to wait until after school to find out what's going on." Rachael stated with a slight smile. The girls got back to eating lunch. Ryan eyed then suspiciously as he sat down.

(A/N) I'm sorry for the short chapter. I'm really trying harder to make them longer…but it was meant as a somewhat cliffy. Did it work? I don't think so, but I tried. Well, anyway, tell me what you think. R&R!
