Discaimer: I don't own HSM

A little help from my...friend?

Chapter one

She was beautiful. The most beautiful person he had ever seen. And yet he doubted whether she had ever even noticed him before. He gazed at her as she stood at her locker collecting her books for the day. Such a simple task, and yet she made it seem so graceful. He banged his head back on his own locker. He was completely kidding himself. Troy wasn't exactly the coolest person in school. In fact he was far from it. And Gabriella was known to be the most popular and gorgeous girl in school. But she didn't use the status to bully or look down on her classmates. She was also known to be one of the smartest and nicest people in school, improving her ever growing group of friends. And another surprise to Troy was that she didn't have a different guy hanging off her arm every week. She was often heard to be waiting for 'Mr Right' whoever that was. By now Troy was still banging his head against his locker, hoping it would knock some sense into him. All I have to do is walk up to her and ask her on a date. And so what if she says no and humilates me in front of the entire school. I mean who cares right? Um...ME!! Troy let a groan. Why do I have to be such a loser? I can even talk to a girl without blushing and stuttering, let alone ask someone out! And why would any girl even give me the time of day.I mean look at me. I have no style whatsover. My trousers are way too short. And I'm wearing brown socks with sneakers! What the hell was I thinking? Why would Gabriella ever look at me? Another exasperated sigh escaped from Troy's mouth. Troy was broken out of his self-loathing thoughts by a familiar, and giggly voice.

"Hi Troy. Whats wrong with you?" Sharpay Evan's giggled. Now Troy didn't even like Sharpay and yet he couldn't even talk to her without making a fool out of him self.

"W-why would you care?" He asked nervously and avoiding eye contact. He kept his eyes firmly fixed on Gabriella who had now been joined by three of her many friends. Sharpay followed Troy's gaze and laughed knowingly when her eyes also fell over Gabriella.

"Gabriella huh?"She asked smirking. Troy didn't answer her. "Want me to help you win her?" Troy's now wide eyes shot to Sharpay. He looked at her questioningly.

"You could do that?" He asked quietly but slightly more confident. Sharpay nodded confidently. "How?" He asked simply.

"Well, I hate to break it to you Troy, but your not the most fashionable guy in the school. And as you can probably tell I am on the top on the fashion world!" She smiled. "So I'm thinking a little make over. And a lesson in how to talk to girls! Thats definitely important. Cause right now you're a mess!"

"A make over?" Troy asked, his new found confidence quickly dissapearing.

"No worries Troy. It'll be fine! You'll win Gabriella in no time" Troy began to believe her again and nodded slowly, before raising his eyebrows.

"Wait a minute. Why are you doing this? Whats in it for you?" He asked highly suspicious. Sharpay feigned hurt and place a hand to her heart.

"Troy! Can't I help someone without them thinking I was was wanting something in return?" She asked. Troy looked at her blankly, before raising his eyebrows again. "Fine!"She gave in."I was kinda hoping you could hook me up with your friend Zeke. He's so cute and I love someone who can bake." She gushed. Troy thought for a second before nodding.

"Okay Sharpay. If you can make me into someone that Gabriella will wanna be with, I'll hook you up with Zeke." Troy smiled.

"Yay!" She said before hugging Troy. Troy hugged back awkwardly. Sharpay pulled back with a huge grin. "Okay, you know where my house is right?"

"Yeah, its pretty hard to miss." He laughed refering to the huge mansion her and her twin brother, Ryan currently lived in.

"Okay then. Come round at seven?" She asked. Troy nodded. "See you later Troy." Sharpay turned away and strutted down the halls. Troy turned back to Gabriella who was walking past him, not even looking in his direction. But hopefully not for much longer...
