A/N: What's up you guys? Hehe. I know it's been a while since I've updated this, but school's kind of been preoccupying me! Although I've had a lot of time during this week to write up stuff, so here I am!
Anyways, I think I'll just start this chapter. PLEASE R&R!!!!

Chapter 6: Just As Obsessed
ZEKE'S POV
This is the seventh time today I've stopped at Sharpay's locker to find her. No sign of her again. "Has anyone seen Sharpay?" I called out suddenly to the entire hallway. Everyone just rolled their eyes, and some of them mumbled, "No."
I sighed, and rested my back against the pink locker of hers. I don't get it; she avoided me in homeroom, and practically ran out of there afterward. Which by the way, I don't know how she can run so fast in those stilettos.
Anyways, and she ALWAYS stops in between classes at her locker. You know, to put on her make-up, change into another sparkly shirt or whatever. But today: absolutely no sign of her. Is she a changed woman now? Or is there some PMS'n that I'm not getting?
I NEED TO SEE HER GOSH DANGN'T! I baked her some fresh cookies, and I would like it if she tried some. And…also to say I'm sorry for what I accidentally let "slip" during her revenge of total doom on Troy and Gabriella; well at least that's what Troy told me afterward.
The 2 minute warning bell just sounded, and I knew I was going to be late for class if I didn't hurry. Besides, my next class is with Sharpay; even though part of me is saying that she will ignore me again, but the other part of me, is saying go Zeke, give it another shot!
I'm going to win her over, I just know it.
As I trudged along to my class, I heard some whispering from around the corner. It sounded an awful lot like Sharpay and Ryan. I stood there for a moment and listened in,
"Ugh, now that I've got you, we have to figure out a plan to break Troy and Gabriella apart, so we can have our spotlights again!" I heard Sharpay say.
"I thought you were working with Zeke?" Ryan asked all confused. Well she was…until I blew it. But hey technically she didn't…
"Ugh, I've been ignoring baker boy all day. He totally ruined our plan yesterday, so the dude is out!" Sharpay said immediately back, and my mouth gaped open. Oh…so she hates me because I ruined her plan? And was she ACTUALLY going to give me a chance if I didn't blow it?
God, I am such an idiot.
"Oh" Was all Ryan said back, and I heard them walking away. Which reminded me, I'm going to be late to class if I don't hurry my butt up!
So I practically ran to class, and when I walked in I saw Ryan and Sharpay already seated in their "reserved" seats, Sharpay buffing up her nails. She snuck a glance at me, then gave me an evil glare before turning away from me. I sighed. Figures…
I also saw Troy and Gabriella sitting near the front with identical smiles plastered on their face, and getting quite cozy next to each other. I really wish Sharpay would see we are PERFECT for each other like that…
"Hey dude, Sharpay still ignoring you?" I heard Troy say out of nowhere, and I realized that he had turned away from Gabriella to talk to me. Why how gracious is he? But I was too depressed to talk so I just gave him a nod back.
I heard Troy sigh. "Zeke, why do you like her?" He asked me in disgust, looking back at Sharpay who was giving me and him the Hawk's eye. I have a feeling I'm going to get it after class…but hey, at least Sharpay will be talking to me, right?
Again, I was too depressed to talk so I just shrugged. He groaned loudly, as our teacher started to speak. I glanced over at Sharpay once more. Yep, she's mad all right. It kind of looks like the steam is going to blow out of her ears. And her face is all red.
Actaully, she's starting to look scary, especially when she sees me looking at her. But come on Zeke, you got to play it cool. So I just flash her a smile, and sink lower into my seat.
But she is cute when she's mad.

And yes, I was right. Once the bell rang for the next class, I hopped out of my chair and tried to jog out of the class as fast as I could, to try to avoid Sharpay. I knew I was going to question me…and I'm starting to kind of feel uncomfortable about it.
I looked back and saw Troy and Gabriella taking their sweet time. Yuck. Troy had picked up Gabriella's books for her, and slung an arm around her shoulder and they slowly made their way out of the classroom. Sigh…
Before I could even take one single more step, I felt a sharp pain in the back of my neck. Oh I could recognize THAT pain anywhere. That would be Sharpay digging her 5 feet tall manicured nails into my neck. Oh joy…I mean, oh pain!
"Stop it right there pastry maker!" I heard her say in her threatening voice. That means, I turn around and shut up while she talks. So when I spun around, she glared at me viciously, "Okay, I want to know why you were talking to the enemy!"
I was wide eyes by now. And it was basically because she had a fistful of my shirt in her hand, and she pulled me really close to her, and looked at me with her 'Hawk's Eye' again.
"Uh nothing really…just you know…wait, I thought I wasn't part of your little 'plan' anymore? I mean that IS what you told Ryan before this last class…right?" I stopped and switched the subject, giving her a slight smirk. I saw her gape at me and inside I suddenly felt as if I said the right thing-she has no right to push me around all the time.
Knowing that Troy and Gabriella over heard the conversation, Troy came up from behind me and patted me on the shoulders. Gabriella just whispered quietly before running off, "Great job, Zeke."
I can't help it. I am proud, and I don't care who knows it!
Oh shit. I just looked back at Sharpay and she looks uh…well let's just say not very happy. The steam looked like it was going to blow out any second. Only not from her ears; from her MOUTH.
And sure enough…it came. Like a volcano erupting…the hot lava of red food coloring and the brownie craving volcano itself…yum. Okay Zeke, uh baking isn't what you should be thinking about now. Although, the results ARE delicious…
"AHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!" Sharpay screamed, making the whole entire hall screech to a stop and turn slowly. Wait scratch that-practically the whole school heard it because it was so loud.
If anyone has ever said that they have lost their hearing to someone…I am almost CERTAIN you don't have it as bad as I do right now.
OUCH E WA WA!!!!!!!! Okay scratch the losing my hearing part! I may have now lost a foot! Yes, that's right; Sharpay just stomped on my foot with her 10 inch heels…
And everyone feels sorry for me when she stomped off with an "ARGH!" Mumbling down the hallways, "I will get those three back if it's the LAST thing I do…" I knew I was in trouble.
"Um…okay…" I croaked out, holding my foot. Jeez, I guess it's broken and you know what? That means no more free period basketball…although it also gives me an excuse to sneak into the cooking classroom and whip up something for all of us at lunch…
Maybe a forgiveness treat to Sharpay may do the trick?
Oh who am I kidding…the girl wont EVER forgive me.

Aww…poor Zeke. But I am glad he finally stood up to Sharpay, aren't you? Lol. Anyways, sorry it wasn't that long and that it was a little bit too crappy, but I've had headaches on and off today so I'm not feeling ecstatic…
Anyways, the next chapter is the best dressed contest! Whoo. And Ryan's POV…oh wow. Hehe, don't get any TOO fancy ideas now…:-)
PLEASE REVIEW:-)
