As soon as detention was over, Sophie sprinted away from the auditorium and to the front of the school where cheerleading practice has being held.
"Hey, girls," Sophie panted.
"Hey, Soph. How bad was detention?" the Captain, Amanda asked.
Sophie just looked at her in response, causing Amanda to wince at the thought of a Darbus detention.
"Well, you're just in time to learn some new cheers. We only went over old ones so far," Amanda smiled.
"Good, good," Sophie mumbled as she got in position and began to learn the new cheer.
Across the lawn in front of the school, Gabriella was walking with Taylor towards the area her mom said she would pick her up.
"We've never made it past the first round of the scholastic decathlon. You could be our answered prayer," Taylor continued from their earlier conversation.
"I'm gonna focus on my studies this semester and help my mom get the new house organised. Maybe next year," Gabriella added, feeling bad for turning Taylor down.
"But-"
"What do you know about Troy Bolton and Sophie Torres?" Gabriella cut in, the thought coming to her mind when she saw Sophie among the sea of cheerleaders. She really likes Sophie and Troy seemed like a decent guy, but Gabriella has never really had friends who were 'popular'. She doesn't want to be wary of them but she can't help it.
"Sophie and Troy? They've been dating since 8th grade. He's the basketball captain and she'll be the cheerleading captain next year. They're the classic high school 'IT' couple," Taylor summarizes.
"Sophie doesn't seem like the cheerleading type," Gabriella notices.
"Sophie doesn't seem like a lot of things," Taylor laughs
Not understanding what that meant exactly, Gabriella asks, "Have you tried to get to know them? Troy and Sophie, I mean."
"Watch how it works in the cafeteria tomorrow when you have lunch with us," Taylor told her.
"I told Sophie I would sit with her-" Gabriella starts.
"Unless you'd rather sit with the cheerleaders and discuss the importance of firm nail beds," Taylor adds emphasis by showing her nails to Gabriella.
"My nail beds are history."
"Sister!"
