different || troy bolton [COMPLETED]

•IV•

I walked into homeroom taking my seat in the back sneaking a glance at Troy winking in his direction. "I expect we all learned our homeroom manners yesterday, people, correct?" Ms. Darbus asked all of us standing in front of the class. "If not, we have some dressing rooms that need painting." She continued as Troy turned to look behind him smiling at me and I found myself doing the same.

"Now a few announcements," Ms. Darbus walked to her mini stage in the classroom,"This morning during free period will be your chance to audition for the musical. Both singles and pairs." I could practically imagine Sharpay grinning her face off, the tips of her smile basically reaching her ears, her pearly white teeth shinning. "I will be in the theater until noon, for those of you bold enough to extend the wingspan of your creative spirit." Ms. Darbus continued expanding her arms as she spoke.

I sat in the auditorium as all of the auditions sang while Ms. Darbus basically shut all of them down. Even though I'm not much of a singer or dancer, I always support my siblings when they have auditions or shows. I'd always be in the front row telling them "You did so good!" And stuff like that. It was the role that I had to carry as the oldest. Three minutes over Sharpay and eight over Ryan.

But this time I was in the corner. Cooped up in my sketch book drawing the designs that came to mind. But that difficult. Why? Because the only thing in mind was the only and only Troy Bolton. What the hell is wrong with you? You've never been stuck on a guy, like ever. I shook my head trying to focus on the dress I was trying to finish up in front of me.

"And for the lead roles of Minnie and Arnold, we only have one couple signed up. Sharpay and Ryan. I think it might be useful for you to give us a sense of why we gather in this hallowed hall." Ms. Darbus spoke as Sharpay and Ryan stood up. Ryan was about to walk off, but Sharpay stopped him by touching his chest and walked off first.

"Whoo!" I exclaimed clapping my hands as Ms. Darbus gave me a disapproving glare. I shrugged my shoulders and saw Sharpay and Ryan glance my way sending me smiles. I winked sending them a smile of my own. I capped my markers and settled myself to watch them perform.

Just then, I heard two pairs of feet walk into the auditorium. I moved my eyes to face the source of the noise and there was Troy and Gabriella. My smile faded as I turned back to face front. Christ Felicity, let it go.

Sharpay snapped her fingers later the curtains covering them. After a few seconds both of their hands peeked out and started snapping as an upbeat melody played.

After Sharpay's and Ryan's audition ended Ms. Darbus asked,"Any last minute sign ups?" She turned off her light as I heard Troy tell Gabriella that they should go. "No? Good. Done."

She started to pack her stuff suddenly Gabriella spoke from the shadows,"I'd like to audition Ms. Darbus."

"Timeless means something in the world of theater, young lady. The individual auditions are long over and there are simply no other pairs." Ms. Darbus started to walk off as another voice spoke.

"I'll sing with her." The most popular jock, star player of the basketball team Tory Bolton spoke holding his hand up obviously reluctantly doing it. Now that caught my attention.

"Troy Bolton?" Ms. Darbus spoke barely believing it. "Where is your sports posse or whatever it's called?" Troy walked down the isle meeting Gabriella in the middle.

"Team." He answered her. Ms. Darbus walked towards them through the chairs. "But I'm here alone. Actually, I'm here to sing with her."

"Yes, well, we take the shows very seriously here at East High. I called of the pairs audition and you didn't respond. Free period is now over."

"She has an amazing voice." Troy tried to fight back pointing towards a now sad Gabriella.

"Perhaps the next musical." Ms. Darbus responded walking off.

Kelsey closed the piano and gathered her papers, but accidentally tripped on the piano chair leg sending her music papers in the air. I was about to go over and help but stopped seeing that Troy and Gabriella were already doing the same. I sat back down watching the scene play in front of me.

They ran to the stage helping her grab her papers. I didn't hear what they said her, but they ended up singing and Troy has a wonderful voice. They left with the song in their hands talking about how crazy it was that they just did that.

I now decided to come out of my shadow and walked towards Kelsey. "What's up Kels?" I asked stepping onto the stage.

"Oh hey Felix!" She responded as I smiled at her. "Why didn't you audition today?"

"You know, it's not really me. And I'll leave the singing and musicals to my siblings."

"Come on, you always say that. You have a really great voice."

"Whatever Kels, you can say what you want, but I suck."

"Come on, sing that song that you were singing in the summer."

"No." I dragged on.

"Please?"

"Man, all you people making me do things this year." She giggled at my response as I smiled.

(A/N: blah blah blah, let's skip the singing)

"Bye kels" I waved behind me walking out of the auditorium.

"What is up with you young ones doing things when you're not supposed to?" Ms. Darbus asked.

I jumped slightly in the air at the sound of her voice. "Oh, Ms. Darbus! I didn't see you there."

"You sounded excellent in there." She pointed towards the auditorium.

"Thanks." I smiled.

"You're voice is absolutely beautiful, so guess what," she smiled, I arched my eyebrows asking her what it is what my face expression. "Oh never mind," she smiled flicking her scarf in the air over to her shoulder. "You'll find out later." She winked towards me and walked away.

Weird.

So, I've always read books on
wattpad then seconds later the
author would have another long
chapter published and I was like
"how the hell" So I decided to try it
and this is pretty radical.

Anyways, this author's note
is to also tell you guys that
I will not be writing within a
few weeks because I will be going
on vacation and there's not
going to be any wifi and wouldn't want
to use any data. So that's also why
you guys have a double update today.
I'll try to make it a triple, but we'll see.
Love you, you wonderful readers!

😘😘
