Chapter 3:

Gabi's POV

The girls came to help me pack and we are having a sleepover before I leave. I remember Taylor mentioning that the boys are having a 'Guy's Night' at Troy's too. I told them everything while they listened to me patiently.

"Poor Gabi," Taylor said with sympathy in her voice.

I gave her a small smile and sighed.

"Hey, Troy Boy isn't that bad," Kelsi told her friend.

"Yeah Ells! At least Troysie's hot! Though he's not as hot as my Zekey," Sharpay chimed in.

"I must admit that Troysie is hotter than your beloved Zekey," Martha argued.

"No, Zekey's hotter!"

"Oh come on, as much as I hate to admit it, lunkhead is hotter than baker boy," Gabriella rolled her eyes as she put an end to this 'argument'.

Sharpay pouted as the girls giggled.

"I just had a marvelous idea!" The pink lover shouted.

Gabriella, Taylor, Kelsi and Martha raised their eyebrows.

"Let's invite the boys here and play truth or dare!"

The girls kept begging me as I gave them a No I Am Not Letting That Happen look. There's no way I'm seeing Bolton. I am stuck with him for the rest of my life; can't they just leave me alone this time? They gave me puppy dog eyes but I turned around and refused to look at my best friends. I turned around again and saw them pleading at me again. I gave in.

"Fine," I grumbled, "I hate you guys."

"Love you too Gabs," The girls chanted.

Sharpay called Zeke and the boys happily agreed to come, much to my dismay. But of course Troy tried to reason with them. The doorbell rang and I opened the door. There stood Chad carrying loads of junk food all by himself with the others behind him.

"Hey Gabster! And hello ladies!" Chad greeted.

"Hey Chadster!" I said.

Then, Troy and Zeke came in and greeted us. Troy had an annoyed look on his face. I couldn't really blame him.

"Hi Zekey! Hey Troysie!" The girls and I snickered, minus the red faced Sharpay.

The two boys looked at us, obviously confused while Ryan, Chad and Jason burst out laughing. The basketball captain, the baker and the drama queen glared at us until our laughter died. We sat in a circle.

"Tay, truth or dare?" asked Ryan.

"Truth," Taylor said.

Chad snickered and called his girlfriend a 'chicken', which caused him to receive a whack on the head.

"What's with the nicknames? I mean really, Zekey and Troysie? How lame."

"It's because your darling sister called them those names while we were debating whether Zeke or Troy was hotter, which by the way Troy won."

Sharpay turned red with embarrassment and crossed her arms. Troy looked proud of himself.

"Hey! It's true!" Sharpay huffed.

They all looked at her as if she was blind, but Zeke just stared at his captain thinking that if he was really hotter than him.

"Moving on. Jase, truth or dare?" Taylor asked.

"Truth."

"Who would you rather date, Kels or Martha?"

"No offence Kelsi, but I'd pick Martha," Jason mumbled.

"No offence taken," Kelsi said.

Chad excused himself and went to the toilet.

"Troysie, truth or dare?" Jason asked.

"Dare baby!" Troy yelled.

Jason smirked.

"I dare you to take Chad's basketball, cover it with pink paint and glitter."

Troy's jaw dropped.

"Are you kidding me? He'd kill me!"

Then he sighed.

"Fine! Damn it, Jason is usually the slow one, when did he get so smart?"

Troy borrowed some pink paint and glitter from Sharpay, which she surprisingly had with her and covered Chad's basketball with the disgusting color and glitter (in Troy's opinion). Later, Chad came back and looked horrified as he saw his basketball.

"OH MY GAWD! NICKY! YOU LOOK HORRIBLE! HIDEOUS! TERRIFYING! WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU? YOU LOOK JUST LIKE THE EVANS GIRL! WHO DID IT?" Chad screamed.

"Hey! I do not look hideous! You don't have any fashion sense!" Sharpay growled.

"Sorry man. Jase made me. But seriously, Nicky?" Troy said.
Everyone calmed down.

"So um, Shar truth or dare?" Troy asked.

"Dare!"

"No pink for a week."

"WHAT?! THIS IS TOURTURE!"

"You picked dare. Not my fault."

"Fine. Ella? T or D?" Sharpay asked.

"Dare."

"I dare you to kiss Troy."

"WHAT?! You're kidding me right?"

"Nope! Now do it!"

Suddenly, an idea formed in my head. I walked over to where Troy was sitting and pecked his cheek. Sharpay looked dumbfounded. We both smirked.

"You didn't say where, I just outsmarted you."

I quietly laughed at Sharpay's face and smiled. Maybe it won't be that bad after all…
