A/N: I will update my other story 'Say Ok' soon but I wanted to write this one-shot idea first. This is in Sharpay's POV.
Disclaimer: I don't own HSM or the song 'Say Goodbye' by Chris Brown either.
Look we gotta talk
Dang I know
I know it's just
It's just...
Some things I gotta get of my chest alright...
Yeahhhh...
Whoa, whoa, whoa, oh, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, oh, whoa...
Listen..
I don't know when we lost it, we just did. One day, he was kissing my cheek and holding my hand. The next, he was distant and barely said three words to me. He didn't even kiss me good night after dinner. I knew it was because of her. I know it wasn't her fault but she was the reason he was acting this way. It all started the day she walked into English class.
Baby come here and sit down, let's talk
I got a lot to say so I guess I'll start by
Saying that I love you,
But you know, this thing ain't been
No walk in the park for us
I swear it'll only take a minute
You'll understand when I finish, yeah
And I don't wanna see you cry
But I don't wanna be the one to tell you a lie so
I saw them talking and laughing. I tried to ignore it at first, thinking it didn't mean anything. That change when I saw try to kiss her. Obviously she didn't let him because of the kind person she is. Even if I was cruel to her since she set foot on the halls of East High, she never wanted to ruin my relationship with Troy.
How do you let it go? When you,
You just don't know? What's on,
The other side of the door
When you're walking out, talk about it
Everything I tried to remember to say
Just went out my head
So I'ma do the best I can to get you to understand
'cause I know
After that day she didn't talk to him for days. He was upset because he knew the reason why. He was and still is a sweet guy. He didn't want to hurt me but he knew that there was no other choice.
There's never a right time to say goodbye
But I gotta make the first move
'Cause if I don't you gonna start hating me
Cause I really don't feel the way I once felt about you
Girl it's not you, it's me
I kinda gotta figure out what I need (oh)
There's never a right time to say goodbye
But we know that we gotta go
Our separate ways
And I know it's hard but I gotta do it,
And it's killing me
Cause there's never a right time
Right time to say goodbye
He called me Friday night and told me that we had to talk. I knew what was going to happen. I didn't know why I cried when he told me it was over. I guess that when he finally said "It's not working out. We have to break up." It actually became real. He kept trying to make me understand why by saying over and over again that he still cared about me but like a sister. I could see a few tears falling from his beautiful blue eyes.
Girl I know your heart is breaking
And a thousand times I
Found myself asking, "Why? Why?"
Why am I taking so long to say this?
But trust me, girl I never
Meant to crush your world
And I never
Thought I would see the day we grew apart
And I wanna know
I ran. I ran as fast as I could away from him. When I got home, I went up to my room and cried. I cried myself to sleep that night and didn't leave my room the entire weekend unless I was hungry or had to go to the bathroom.
How do you let it go? When you,
You just don't know? What's on,
The other side of the door
When you're walking out, talk about it
Girl I hope you understand
What I'm tryna say.
We just can't go on
Pretending that we get along
Girl how you not gonna see it?
I had the radio on and I heard the song "Say Goodbye" by Chris Brown and I realized how Troy was feeling that Friday night. I knew he felt guilty and was still upset.
There's never a right time to say goodbye
But I gotta make the first move
'Cause if I don't you gonna start hating me
Cause I really don't feel the way I once felt about you
Girl it's not you it's me.
I kinda gotta figure out what I need (oh)
There's never a right time to say goodbye
But we know that we gotta go
Our separate ways
And I know it's hard but I gotta do it,
And it's killing me
Cause there's never a right time
Right time to say goodbye
I called him later that night and left a message saying that he didn't have to feel guilty about anything. I said that we both knew it wasn't going to last forever. I still didn't understand what he meant by saying he still cared for me.
Listen to your heart
Girl you know,
We should be apart, baby I
I just can't do it
I, I just can't do it
Listen to your heart
Girl you know,
We should be apart, baby I
I just can't do it
And sometimes it makes me wanna cry
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Do you hear me crying?
Oh, oh, oh
When I went back to school on Monday, I saw him and her holding hands like we used to do. Instead of getting upset, I was happy that he was happy. I was a little jealous because he had someone but for the most part, I didn't care. As long as he was happy I was happy.
There's never a right time to say goodbye
But I gotta make the first move
'Cause if I don't you gonna start hating me
Cause I really don't feel the way I once felt about you
Girl it's not you it's me.
I kinda gotta figure out what I need (oh)
There's never a right time to say goodbye
But we know that we gotta go
Our separate ways
And I know it's hard but I gotta do it,
And it's killing me
Cause there's never a right time
Right time to say goodbye
A few weeks after the day, my icy exterior started to melt. I stopped bossing my brother around and let him lead for once. Gabriella and I became friends which surprised me. Troy was and still is one of my guy best friends. Zeke started teaching me how to bake cookies. He is such a sweet and cute guy. He finally asked me out a while ago and I said yes. I realized what Troy was talking about. He still cared for me and I still cared for him but in a different way.
There's never a right time to say goodbye
But I gotta make the first move
'Cause if I don't you gonna start hating me
Cause I really don't feel the way I once felt about you
Girl it's not you it's me.
I kinda gotta figure out what I need (oh)
There's never a right time to say goodbye
But we know that we gotta go
Our separate ways
And I know it's hard but I gotta do it,
And it's killing me
Cause there's never a right time
Right time to say goodbye
I sometimes look back and think about what had happened if Troy and I were still together. All I can say is that we would be very unhappy. Would I have been upset if he would have broken up with me sooner? Later? I guess Chris Brown was right. There is never a right time to say goodbye.
