So I've been like mia for months and haven't updated my other story which I apologise for but I've decided to write another story whilst trying to finish the other one.

Summary:

Sharpay thought she had it all; a wonderful husband Troy Bolton whom she loved more then anything and 2 perfect kids, Jackson 'Jack' 5 and Lily 3. Her little family was truly her world but lately things had become imperfect.

Chapter 1

Jack Bolton was kicking the back of his mother's chair and whining. "Jackson Bolton! Stop that right now!" Sharpay told Jack, looking at him in the rear-view mirror of the car. The 5 year pouted in annoyance and slouched down in his car seat. Sharpay had to pick up her son from school early the young boy had been in a fight with another student and was suspended for the day because of it.

As she arrived home she told Jack he wasn't allowed to watch TV or play any games for the night the little boy was less then happy about it and had stomped upstairs to his room in a huff. Sharpay went into the living room to talk to Troy, but to her surprise her husband wasn't in there. She shook her head as she looked at the coffee table, it had a empty beer cans and vodka bottles. A sound from out in the backyard caught her attention and she went outside to investigate. Troy was out there destroying a kid's basketball hoop.

"What are you doing?" Sharpay asked Troy.

Troy tossed the broken toy aside without a care, and turned to look at his wife "Where did he get the hoop?" he questioned a little slurred in his speech.

"You're bestfriend got it for him." She replied annoyed that he was getting drunk again, she was also angry with him for destroying their son's toy.

"Well you can tell Chad not to bother getting him basketball related things." Troy made very clear.

"Jack loves basketball Troy, you know that!" She sighed.

"I don't want him playing!" Troy spat as he turned his wheelchair and went back inside the house.

Sharpay followed him inside shaking her head "Sober Up!" Troy ignored her demands, and grabbed a beer from the kitchen side before making his way back to the living room and slumping onto the couch.

For a second Sharpay wondered how her life had gotten like this. A few months ago everything was perfect Troy was playing for the NBA with his dream team, the LA Lakers. Sharpay was living her dreams, and was running her own clothing line. Their marriage was everything they expected it to be and they were also blessed with 2 wonderful children who meant the world to them. But one thing had changed it all, Troy had been in a car accident and his lower spine had been damaged because of it. He was under strict orders to stay in the wheelchair for a couple of months to allow his spine to heal properly. Which meant no basketball for awhile. That part hadn't bothered him that was until the doctor's told him he may never be able to play basketball again. Ever since then Troy's behaviour and attitude had completely changed, he'd become a drunken wreck and it was tearing the family apart.

Later on in the evening Sharpay was laying down in bed reading a book. Both the kids were asleep and she thought Troy would be too since the last time she checked on him, he was passed out from the drinking. Breaking noises pulled her attention away from the book, Troy was obviously downstairs smashing things up in a mood. She sighed shaking her head both Jack and Lily had ran into the master bedroom their father's outburst had woke them up and scared them. Sharpay pulled up the covers letting both her kids climb into bed with her.

"When is Daddy going to get better?" Jack sadly asked.

"I don't know." Sharpay answered kissing both her children's foreheads.

"He's scary when he's mad." Lily mumbled with a yawn as she rested her head against her mother.

Sharpay softly stroked her hair "I know baby just ignore Daddy he's being silly, but you two need to go back to sleep now okay?"

"Can we sleep in here?" Lily asked her eyes were half closed and she was ready to fall asleep at any second.

Sharpay nodded and turned off the bedside lamp laying down with them. Jack and Lily fell asleep quickly after that but Sharpay couldn't sleep she had so many thoughts racing through her mind. She was wondering how long Troy could keep this behaviour up, She was starting to grow tired of it and couldn't take much more of it any longer.

First chapter done please review and I'm going to try keep on top of this story and update as often as I can.
