New Classic

“Hey...maybe...later if we hang out.. you could help me finish this song I’ve been writing?” Ryan asked. I blushed but smiled
“Sure, where do you wanna Hang out?” I asked
“I wanna see your place..trust me we’d get no time to sing with Sharpay around” Ryan said lookin past me to see her flirting with Troy.
I looked back at her and rolled my eyes
“Well...our back yard has this cool tree house.. it’s pretty big. And private” I said smirking. He smiled
“Alright so I’ll stop by at 7?” He asked. I smiled back
“Sounds good” I said leaning in just a bit.
“Good” he said as he leaned in a bit too and as we were inching closer we heard the gym coach yell making us jump back.
“Where’s my team Darbus?! What the heck are those two doing in a tree?!” He yelled. I looked at Ryan and he looked back
“Um..I’m gonna go...to my twin”
“Yeah uh same” Ryan said with a small smile and we went opposite ways.
“It’s called crime and punishment Bolton, besides proximity for the arts is cleansing for the soul”darbus said
“Can we have a talk? Please? And you two! In the gym! Now!” Mr Bolton said angrily. Troy and Chad jumped up quickly and ran passed.finally detention was over and I picked up my bag and was collecting my art supplies
“Hey, So were on for tonight?” Ryan asked making me blush
“It’s just music it’s-it’s not like a date or anything right?” I said nervously
“No um..definitely not a date” he said smirking. I smiled
“Alright then..7 sharp” I said and waved goodbye
“So Ryan’s coming over? You gonna dress up?” Gabriella said smirking.
“What? No it’s not a date. Just two people collaborating on a song” I said making gabriella laugh
“All dates are considered dates even if you don’t think it’s one” she said sticking her tongue out.
“Whatever” I said blushing
“You should wear a skirt or a dress for once.. for him.. come on let me do your makeup” Gabriella said excitedly
“Fine but I just want my hair straight” i said making her roll her eyes
“Okay okay” she said giggling
“Hey Gabriella can I talk to you for a minute?” Taylor asked walking up
“Uh sure. Tell mom to wait for me” gabs said and I gave her a thumbs up before walking to the car.
~maybe I should dress up..~ I thought as I got in the car
Gabriella soon got in too and we went home. I told my mom Ryan was supposed to stop by.
I went and showered then I dress in a black skin tight cotton tank top, a plaid black and red skirt that was just above my knees and my combat boots. I also wore a little silk ribbon choker with a black coin on it. I did light make up and put on some PINK body spray. I took a look in the mirror and smiled
“You said you’d let me do your makeup!” Gabs whined
“Sorry I didn’t know where you were” I said giggling
“In my room??? Waiting for you! Ugh but you look great!” Gabs said smiling at me.
“Thank-you Gabs” Just then the doorbell rang and I walked down stairs. When I opened the door Ryan’s handsome face was eye to eye with me.
“Hi Ryan” I said smiling brightly at him
“Hey..you look..way better than I do for something that’s not a date” he said scratching his head
“Uhh right. Sorry I just wanted to change out of my school clothes. Is it too much?” I asked blushing
“No! No not at all you look...amazing” he said smiling at me. I blushed
“Right we’ll come in. I’ll just grab my guitar and we can go out back” I said letting him in. He followed me up the stairs and into my room.
“Wow looks like you still need to unpack a bit” Ryan said chuckling
“Oh yeah I’m a bit behind. Well here’s my guitar so follow me” I said smiling.
We went out back and I let Ryan go up first since I was wearing a skirt. Once we got in I closed the bottom door and turned on the light
“Wow I can’t believe you got this cool little place with the house” Ryan said looking around
“Right? I think I might do some interior work and make this my art/music room” i said looking around
“That’d be cool..I might come over more” he said smirking. I giggled
“Well I would hope so....so what are you working on?” I asked sitting on the floor with my legs crossed.
“Glad you asked” he pulled out a piece of paper
“I’m having a hard time with the rest but can I see your guitar?” Ryan asked. I handed him the guitar
“Maybe if you harmonize me I’ll have more to add” Ryan said
“What? No no way” i said blushing
“Oh come on you said you’d sing for me” Ryan said making me huff
“Fine let me see” I said and he handed me the paper.
“Okay just jump in” he said and began to play

“ it’s become so hard
For me to be surprised
But you’re bringing back the real me
(Harmonized) no judgement in your eyes
But the way you make me feel
Like I’m finally something real” Ryan stopped and smiled
“That was sweet” I said smiling
“What do you have that you’re working on?” Ryan asked
“Umm nothing” I said biting my lip
“I’m starting to notice you bite your lip every time you lie to me” Ryan said smirking as he leaned back against the wall. I sighed nervously
“I have one song I’m working on but I don’t like sharing until it’s ready” I said smirking
“Oh come on, give me just a little sample” Ryan said smiling. I sighed and took the guitar

~”I’ve always been the kind of girl
That hid my face
So afraid to tell the world
What I’ve got to say
But I’ve had this dream
Right inside of me
I’m gonna let it show
It’s time
To let you know
To let you know
This is real
This is me
I’m exactly where I’m supposed to be I’m
Gonna let the light
Shine on me
Now I’ve found who I am there’s no way to hold it in
No more hiding who I wanna be
This is me~”
I finished and set down the guitar
“Wow..oh my gosh that was amazing. You’re better than I thought. You sound beautiful” Ryan said sheepishly. I blushed
“Thankyou” I said smiling.
“Why don’t you sign up for the musical. I’ll do the duet with you” Ryan said making my jaw drop
“But your sister would be furious with you”
“I’ll figure something out. I’ll do it with her and then once she leaves or goes to the dressing room I’ll do the duet with you. We need someone with a voice like yours in our productions” Ryan said taking my hand and holding it making me blush. I smiled
“Well...alright if you’ll sing with me” I said giggling
