I am Myself | HSM FF

Scene 2

It was homeroom time of the next day. I double checked my bag to make sure I have the pieces of music I made. Thank goodness Kelsi wasn't going to there, but instead the music room with the lovebirds. Going to the desk of my teacher, I asked for a pass to Ms. Darbus in the auditorium. Mr. Hopper gave me the pass and I left the room.

The halls were relitavely empty, with occasional moments of other people walking. I walked by the music room and almost wanted to gag. Of course it's another romance song, come on Kelsi, think of something new. Going to Ms. Alinski's room I peeked my head in the door.

"Can I steal Shar?" I asked her.

"Be my guest, I don't care," the teacher said.

Sharpay happily got up with her stuff and followed me to the auditorium. We pushed open the somewhat heavy doors and stepped inside, the doors closing loudly. Our favorite teacher looked up to us, with her little boy assistant close to her.

"Hello Evans," She called out, as we walked down.

"Hello Ms. Darbus," I greeted.

"Did you two want to rehearse for callbacks? Perhaps messing around?"

"Actually, I wanted to ask about something different."

"Oh? Well what is it?"

"I know Kelsi is the main composer, but she doesn't treat everyone well, so I wanted to see if I could play my own pieces for you."

"How exciting! How many did you bring in?"

"Five."

"Go up to the piano and play for me."

I grabbed all the pieces and walked up to the stage, sitting on the stool, separating piece one from the other four. Sharpay sat next to the little boy and played patacake. Letting out a small breath I said, "this is piece one."

I played the piece from start to finish with no errors. The tune made me happy, for me to realize I have true potential. Ms. Darbus clapped for me.

"That's amazing Ryan," She complimented, I returned a smile.

I put that piece away and pulled out the second one. "Piece two," I spoke. Eventually I got through the rest of my work and stood up. Ms. Darbus did the same and gave me a smile.

"My my Ryan, you are quite the composer, I'll make you my personal composer," She told me.

"What does that mean for Kelsi?" I asked.

"Due to her always favoriting the lovebirds, she'll do their pieces, you'll be the one to write the rest of the pieces."

"That's such an honor, thank you."

The bell rung for next class, where we were currently. Many people shuffled in when I had all my pieces in hand, slipping them into my gray backpack. Troy and Gabriella came in with Kelsi in tow of them.

"Formations everyone!" Ms. Darbus cheered.

Everyone got in a line, except for Sharpay and I. Chad looked at me for a brief second then gazed at the ceiling. It seemed like he went through something rough.

"I have decided that right now is the time for me to announce the parts," the teacher spoke.

"Who got what?" Kelsi asked.

"Sharpay got lead of Bailey, Ryan lead of Owen."

"Seriously?"

"Ah yes, and for you, you are no longer my composer."

"W-what?"

Everyone looked at the blonde-haired teacher in surprise. Sharpay continued to play patacake with the boy.
