Good morning you Gossip lovers!

Grab your Jansport school backpacks (or your Balenciaga handbags) and pack your school supplies (in some girls' cases, makeup and emergency tampons). Today is the first day school back! (And I'm already having senioritis.)

TB is caught buying a Caramel Frappucino at Starbucks on his way to school. We don't see any girl around. Is he on his way to pick GM up? We're not sure. CD at home, fluffing his big mountain of hair we call an afro. How does he get it so fluffed up? It's like touching a brown sheep. Jaykay. KN is already at the music room writing up songs. Is she already preparing for another musical? It's only the first day back and the fall musicale is already in session to be its best this year. ZB appeared to be in the cooking classroom with a batch of oatmeal cookies on the table. It's not a fulfilled first day without some cookies in our mouths.

Now it's my turn getting ready for my first school. See you in homeroom!

Even I know you love me.

Chapter 3

Don't you see that bigger is better, and better is bigger? A little bit is never enough, no no. Sharpay Evans repeated in her mind while strutting down the newly fresh hallways filled with returning students and incoming freshmen. The floors were neatly polished and the lockers' graffiti from last year were washed off. It looked like the school was remodeled. Sharpay knew it was because of her daddy's money that made this school to its best.

She walked past the cooking classroom and immediately smelled the oatmeal. She grinned and entered the classroom and saw nobody but one person was there.

"Hey babe," she greeted her boyfriend. She walked over and planted a kiss on his cheek, leaving a pink lipstick stain on his cheek.

"Hold on…" Zeke stepped away from her as he quickly set down the last batch of cookies. He removed the gloves and turned off the stove. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Sharpay jump on the counter and crossed her legs. She was wearing a white short-sleeved fleece shirt that had the sleeves tied together with strings and a hot pink leather skirt. She had hot pink leather high heel boots to match.

"You look… pink today."

"Aren't I always?" Zeke walked over and placed his hands around her waist. She leaned down and lightly kissed his lips. "Am I allowed to have one of those cookies?"

"It's for the whole gang. So if you're in the gang, of course you can have some." Sharpay smiled as she kissed him again, but this time Zeke's hand came up and rubbed the back of her neck. He pulled her closer so he could open his mouth and lick the bottom of her lip. Looks like someone tasted their cooking before he cooked it.

Kelsi wrote the last lyrics of the latest song she had written before packing it in her book bag. She was excited to show Ryan, the choreographer of this year's fall musicale, and let him know that she was ready full on to be the composer, a.k.a. playmaker to Troy, of the fall musicale. She turned off the lamp light before locking the door on her way out to the hallway. She turned left to go to the stairs that led up to the hallway where her locker was. She entered the corridors and stepped her way up. She heard some moaning on her way up. She made a face as she heard more moaning from the empty classroom above. She sneaked closer and peeked in through the glass space on the door.

There she saw, was Ryan and a girl… fucking each other.

Oh my damn. Kelsi gasped as she saw Ryan cover the girl's face with kisses as he… Ew, she shouldn't even be describing it. She took her phone out and took a picture of the scene. She opened up a new text and applied the picture into the text message.

To 44475 (GGIRL)

RE and mystery girl getting it on.

KN

Kelsi pressed send, blinding the screen with an animation of a letter flying away from the screen. She snapped the phone shut and walked the rest of the way to her locker.

Gabriella pulled back from Troy's lips as she sat straight in the passenger seat. She pulled out her MAC lipgloss and reapplied her lips. Troy smoothed out his red East High Wildcat t-shirt with LeBron James's autograph on it when he came to their school in sophomore year for a basketball country-wide charity that East High held. He patted the autograph name for good luck and pulled his girlfriend on his lap again.

"We're going to be late for homeroom. It's not good being late on the first day." Gabriella was cut off as she giggled when Troy sucked on her neck.

"Darbus won't mind," he mumbled into her hair.

"Who says I have Darbus this year?" Troy's head popped up.

"You told me…" Gabriella giggled, planting a glossy kiss on his cheek.

"I'm kidding. Now let's go!" She stepped out of Troy's car before he could answer. He practically ran on the other side to grab Gabriella's hand. "Eager much?"

"Always for you." They kissed one more time before entering for their first day of their last year in high school.

Sharpay and Zeke held hands toward her two pink lockers that are linked together. She twirled her combination and opened it, revealing a whole wardrobe closet. She pulled out her plastic tiara and set it on her head. Zeke pulled out the cheesecake recipe that he left on the last day of junior year in her locker. Suddenly, a petite blonde girl appeared out of nowhere. Sharpay raised her eyebrows.

"Who are you?" Sharpay snapped. The blonde smiled.

"Hi I'm Tiara Gold. I've just transferred her from London and I heard that you've needed an assistant?" the blonde said with an English accent. Sharpay smiled; this girl is touché.

"Résumé?" Tiara slapped some papers on Sharpay's hand. Zeke took it and read through it.

"Is this your boyfriend?" Tiara asked.

"What do you think?" Sharpay answered rudely.

"Shar, don't be mean," Zeke warned her. He looked at Tiara. "It says here you're a sophomore year?"

"Yes, class of 2010." Sharpay rolled her eyes. Everyone knows class of 2008 rules the school right now.

"I think she's good for the job." Sharpay raised her eyebrows and peeked over Zeke's shoulder. "It says here she's also in the drama department from her school in London. She basically has the same interests as you, Shar." She looked at the petite sophomore and eyed her holding a pink paper bag.

"What's that?" She pointed out. Tiara looked at her hand and gasped.

"Oh, this is for you." She handed the bag to Sharpay. "This is your nonfat no foam soy latte with your one pack of organic sweetener ready to go." Sharpay smirked.

"I'll send you my wardrobe schedule tomorrow morning so we can match." She slammed her locker. "If you have any orange, get rid of it." Tiara smiled. Sharpay grabbed Zeke's hand and pulled him down the hallway.

Everyone appeared to arrive Darbus's homeroom early today. Sharpay and Zeke entered along with Tiara trailing behind. Sharpay stopped and turned around. "You're in my homeroom?" Tiara nodded pleasantly. Sharpay gave her a fake smile before seating in her regular seat in the front of the room. Zeke took a seat across from her. Tiara sat the other seat across from Sharpay. Chad was already seated next to Zeke and Troy sat in front of Chad. Martha took a seat next to Troy. Taylor sat behind Zeke with Gabriella sitting behind her. Jason sat next to Gabriella. Kelsi sat the other empty seat next to Chad. Ryan sat behind his twin sister.

Everyone sat in their regular seat but some new students were transferred in. Two guys who appeared to be best friends came in laughing and took the two seats behind Chad and Kelsi. Troy recognized them both as Jimmie, also known as 'the Rocketman', and Donny, his best friend. They were the only freshmen in junior varsity basketball team last year. Ever since Troy became junior varsity captain last year, Jimmie idolized Troy. Troy thought it was cute at first, but then Jimmie kept stealing glances at Troy and trying to imitate Troy's every move. It was annoying. He better not try out of varsity this year.

The bell rang and Ms. Darbus stood up with open arms.

"Welcome back, students to another year of high school. I'm Ms. Darbus, as most of you know. As for others, this will be a warning for the new students. Do not ever pull out your cell phone in class. You will result in an afterschool detention in the theater and I will give you a lecture, not about your behavior, but about the history of the theatre and I know most of you already heard that. Those of you who knows it should know it's at least a half hour of nonstop talking that will cause you to fall asleep so I suggest you avoid getting in trouble so you won't have to face it." Some students laughed as Ms. Darbus laughed along with them. "Now announcements will be from our class president, Miss Taylor McKessie." The gang clapped as Taylor stood up and walked to the back of the room. She pushed the chalkboard to reveal a chalkboard full with announcements.

"Today is the first day of school back. If you're not satisfied with your schedule, please see Miss Carter for schedule changes but only if you want to change a grade level class, an honors class, or an elective. For others, you must have a good reason to change or the office won't waste their time with you." She grabbed a yardstick and slapped it to the second bullet on the board. "The fall musicale is based on the original musical, Hairspray. Anyone who wants to try out must go to the first auditions on Tuesday, October 3rd. Callbacks will be during free period on Wednesday, October 11th. No experience required." She slapped the stick to the last bullet on the board. "Today's lunch special…" She glared at Chad playfully. "is New York Deli." She slapped the stick loudly and returned to her seat.

"Thank you Miss McKessie." The bell rang as the students were eager to leave the classroom as soon as Ms. Darbus dismisses them. The whole gang met right outside. Sharpay and Zeke were the last ones to be out, including Tiara right behind her.

"I'll see you later uhh…" Sharpay thought for a second.

"Tiara," Zeke reminded her in her ear.

"Right, Tiara. I'll see you later." Tiara smiled before trotting off.

"Who's she?" Chad asked, his eyes following Tiara's trail down the hall. Taylor smack his afro. He didn't react until three seconds later. "Did you just smack my afro?" Taylor shook her head. Chad fluffed his afro anyways. "So who's she?"

"Sharpay's new assistant," Zeke answered for her.

"Why do you need an assistant?" Gabriella questioned. Troy's arms wrapped around Gabriella's waist and kissed the back of her neck.

"With the fall musicale, college applications, and my weekly yoga lessons with my private yoga instructor, I need to keep track and use my time well. You all know that I can't handle the crap by myself so I needed an assistant."

"Why don't you get Zeke to help you?"

"He's busy with his own stuff. Besides, he's my snukky-puss. I can't let him do my work." She gave him a sloppy kiss on the corner of his mouth. Chad winced at the sight disgustedly.

"Please, get a room. And since we're in a school, go get a classroom." Kelsi and Taylor chuckled at his joke. Sharpay and Zeke rolled their eyes.

"C'mon, let's go to class." Sharpay dragged Zeke away. Jason, Gabriella, Chad, and Taylor waved goodbye to the others as they went their separate ways.

Ryan pulled his shirt over his head as he heard the homeroom bell, signaling everyone that homeroom is over. His little friend was on the other side of the room pulling her skirt on over her white granny panties.

"We didn't get to go to homeroom. What if the teacher finds out? I can't get a Saturday detention!" his friend cried.

"Calm down. It's the first day back. Just say you just got back from vacation and everything will be fine," Ryan said. He rolled his eyes at his friend's whining.

"Then can we go to class now? I don't want to get a detention!" She grabbed his hand to pull him out of the empty band classroom, but he reluctantly pulled away.

"No we're done." Her eyes widened.

"Done?"

"Yeah, we're done. I can't handle a whiny girl."

"But… but you said you would introduce me to your sister and your friends."

"Why should I? They're going to think that I have a whiny girlfriend."

"But you promise!" Ryan laughed, not caring about the girl standing in front of him.

"Some promises are meant to be kept, but some promises are just meant to be broken."

"You're a jerk!" Ryan laughed again.

"I know." The girl stood there crying, not believing that this was happening. Ryan, being an Evan, didn't care and left her there. He was to find another candidate before his mother brings up the words: senior homecoming.

Jason waved goodbye to his basketball friends before meeting up with his girlfriend for a year. He shoved his way through the students, ignoring the 'hey what's up's and the hands sticking out to do their guy handshakes. He turned left toward the music room where he knew Kelsi would be in, preparing for the fall musicale. It was going to be extravagant, he heard, and Kelsi was putting 200% of her guts into this. Some Julliard and Columbia representatives were coming to watch her composition, so it was a big deal that Kelsi gets this right and perfect. Jason believed that she'll do a great job and so did everyone else, but everyone's opinions weren't the important ones; it was the representatives' opinion that could get her the scholarship she needed for a better future.

He spotted Kelsi playing the piano while fixing some errors on her music sheets. She continued playing as Jason sneaked in and quietly closed the door behind him. He tiptoed to Kelsi as he covered her eyes, failing since she was wearing her glasses.

"Guess who?"

"Do you really want me to guess if it's my boyfriend?" Jason laughed as he took a seat next to her on the piano bench.

"So how is the musical going?"

"I'm thinking about adding another song to the musical. We already know the other songs in it but I feel like I need to contribute one more for the sake of keeping East High's name in its place for creating the best songs there is. It's a lot of pressure too." Jason grabbed Kelsi's face and faced it toward him.

"Kelsi, you are going to do great. You know it." Kelsi's head nodded. Jason smiled and pecked her lips. "C'mon the gang's waiting near the fountain." Kelsi nodded and grabbed her music sheets and pencil. She stuffed it into her backpack. Jason grabbed her hand and pulled her out of the music room. They ran to the front where the gang were waiting for them.

Suddenly everyone's cell phones started ringing different tones. They all pulled out their phones. Troy leaned back against the fountain, flipped his LG Xenon, and his eyes widened. Gabriella was furiously tapping on her iPhone and moving her finger up and down. Sharpay covered her mouth, looking at her pink iPhone and almost crying. Zeke slided his Samsung Glyde back and forth, checking to see if the text message was a joke and it's just going to pop up temporarily on his screen. Taylor looked like she was about to explode, looking at her LG Versa and clicking buttons. Chad flipped his LG Voyager, disappointed at what he just saw. Jason tapped on his LG Dare to also check if this was a joke. Kelsi still hasn't gotten a clue what people were so worried about. She pulled out her red Envy V2 and her jaw dropped. Oh my god she was in so much trouble...

Everyone turned to the same direction: toward the buses. Ryan was sitting in front of the bus checking his Blackberry Storm. His eyes widened at the text message.

Spotted Drama boy getting himself into a lot of drama. Some say you must play a lot of characters in order to get better at your acting. Well here's actor boy playing the part of a player having secret sex with someone who isn't in their league. Being a senior, it must have taken a lot of gut to start a secret rendezvous with a freshmen. So ready to play another part? You're about to play the part of the student at school who have just been caught being a victim of a nude scandal. Have fun with your new role.

"Ryan, what do you have to say for this?!" Sharpay shouted angrily. Ryan looked up at his sister embarassed. He turned away not answering and walked to his car. "I can't believe he would just ditch me like that. I'm his sister!"

"Shar, calm down. He just got a lot of stuff going through his mind right now," Zeke soothed her. He rubbed her arms calmly while she stood there with tears running down her face. She shook her head and walked alone to her own car.

"Bitch," everyone heard Gabriella say.

Aw poor GM. Haven't anyone ever tell you dirty mouths will get you to hell? Too late, you're already in it.

Anyway RE, I'm sorry for the blast but you should've known better. If you didn't do your dirty deed, I would've sent it as a fake email to scare people. Unfortunately, the whole thing is true and we all know I wouldn't lie if I have proof. I can't say I apologize because I never apologize for other people's mistakes.

Ta ta for now.

A/N: Hey sorry for the really slow update. Sophomore year is finally over! Finals are done and its the summer. I promise I'll work on some chapters as soon as I can.

Another announcement, I need another editor because it seems my last editor doesn't go on FF anymore so I still need someone to check over my grammar mistakes. If you think you are good at fixing writing, PM asap. I really need one and you can tell that this chapter is kind of unedited either. Thank you so much!

I'll be going to Taiwan soon so I really don't know if I can write more of my stories. I'll try to find a way. Love ya!
