The Grand Sleep-Over {Girls,Zeke,Ryan}

[Emma the Loyal Sharpette]

Emma slammed against the ground as soon as Sharpay's scream filled the room. Emma jumped up too and started to scream. She ran around Sharpay's room trying to get away from whatever being had lifted her off the ground, as if it were chasing her.

Emma finally decided to dive underneath Sharpay's bed, and hide there until it was safe to come out.

[Sharpay Evans]

Sharpay, as if possessed, followed Bebe to her room. She had NEVER followed anyone's orders, but she wasn't herself at the time. "F-f-f-loat-ing...." She kept on mumbling on her way to Bebe's room.

[Bebe Tenko]

Bebe set Sharpay down on her bed, heating up some water to make tea. She could only guess what had happened... Bebe thought of all the movies she'd ever seen set at a country club. Did a guy reject her? Was she pregnant?
But... she'd said 'floating'.
"What was floating?" Bebe inquired slowly to Sharpay. "Sharpay Evans, listen to me. LISTEN. ANSWER. What happened?"

[Sharpay Evans]

Sharpay looked at Bebe, her eyes still wide. "Emma...floating..." she tried to form a sentence but only those words came out. She brought her knees to her chest and started rocking back and forth. "Scary."

[Bebe Tenko]

"Emma... floating?"
Bebe remembered Emma. The girl she'd helped with her outfit earlier. Bebe gave Sharpay some tea and patted her head. "I'll be right back.
Bebe walked over to Sharpay's room and walked in. Someone screamed, but Bebe screamed even louder when she saw the candles on the ground, flickering, and the girl in the center. Bebe ran back to her room, slammed the door behind Sharpay, and stared at her, breathing shakily.
"Satanism?!" Bebe roared. "Is that what you are?!"

[Sharpay Evans]

Sharpay had now partially recovered from the shock, but she had almost dropped the tea when Bebe mentioned Satanism. "WHAT?! Heck no!" She said, taking a sip from the tea. "We were having a sleep-over and Gabriella suggested this game, but I never thought it would...work!!!" She exclaimed.

[Bebe Tenko]

"I saw a pentacle, and I saw candles and a girl in the middle," Bebe said coldly. "That's... bad." Bebe couldn't bring herself to yell again, though. After all, her family had ties to a few Satanist enforcers. "...I just... It's a stupid thing to do, Sharpay. Even if you're just mucking about. Drink the tea. It's not poisoned."

[Sharpay Evans]

Sharpay took another sip from the tea. "I don't know what game it is actually...so yeah." She said, shrugging her shoulders off. "And look, it wasn't me who suggested it in the first place." She looked up at her. "You know, I think you should join our sleep-over. We definitely need someone to control us...but not too much." She grinned at the girl. "And I still haven't asked for your name, actually."

[Bebe Tenko]

"Bebe Tenko. You yelled at me last year for painting your dressing room yellow instead of goldenrod." Bebe put an arm around Sharpay. "I'm not a big people-person... but if you want me to come, I will. But only if I can bring some CDs."

[Sharpay Evans]

Sharpay recalled that time she yelled at someone for not getting the paint right. "Oh..." she blushed as she finally remembered. "Right." She looked at her, grinning. She was surprised she hadn't pushed Bebe's arm away when she put it around her. "Sure, feel free to bring some CDs." She nodded at Bebe.

[Bebe Tenko]

"Cool. I'll get some stuff together." Bebe gestured to the cup Sharpay gripped tightly in her hand. "You can take that. No worries. Why don't you make sure everyone else in your room is okay?"

[Sharpay Evans]

Sharpay nodded, smiling gratefully at her. "Alright. See you in my room!" She got up and had almost left her room when she turned around. "Oh, and thanks." She said, before finally going back to her room to check on everyone.

[Emma the Loyal Sharpette]

Emma peaked out from under Sharpay's bed when she heard someone enter the room. She sighed when she saw it was Sharpay.

"Oh Sharpay...thank goodness. That really freaked me out!" Emma tried to make herself laugh, but she was still really creeped out by everything.

"Um, I think you might have woken Ryan up, but I don't know. All I heard was this thud against your connecting door, and then it was silent. I was kinda hiding, and I didn't feel brave enough to go check it out." Emma said sheepishly.

[Sharpay Evans]

Sharpay laughed when she saw Emma hiding underneath her bed. "Hey, if that freaked you out, what do you think had happened to me?!" She said, shaking her head.

But when she heard her comment about Ryan waking up, her face suddenly change. "I...I might have woken him up?" She dashed over to their connecting door and tried to listen for any sounds. It sure sounded quiet now.

[Emma the Loyal Sharpette]

Emma watched Sharpay listen at the door connecting her and Ryan's room. She felt bad she didn't see if Ryan was okay, but she was so scared from what happened, she was honestly only thinking of herself.

Emma approached Sharpay at the door.

"I'm sure everything's okay Sharpay. I mean, he probably got startled when you screamed, but then remembered you were having this sleepover, and went back to sleep. It's not like this is first time we have woken Ryan up when we screamed at a sleepover, right?" Emma said, with a smile.

She remembered all the other sleepovers Sharpay had with the Sharpettes and everytime something happened to make them scream, and without a doubt Ryan always woke up. They usually heard about the next morning as he complained to them about it. Emma smiled as she thought about these fond memories.
