A/N: I'm not new to writing I did have another fanfiction account but deleted it due to my personal life getting abit hectic anyway I'm back and I'm going to take a whack at writing so anyway this story is called Lights Will Guide You Home its very fitting you'll see why the story is to do with HSM which I'm not a big fan of anymore but did however love the whole Troy/Sharpay dynamic so its basely solely on this couple and none of that Troy/Gabriella crap or singing because it bored me I'm for Troypay and I know this type of storyline has been tried before but I've seen alot of them where they haven't been finished so I'm going to attempt to finish my story :) Basic cast Zac Efron as Troy Bolton, Ashley Tisdale as Sharpay Evans and Lucy Merriam as Lily Mae Bolton
Lights Will Guide You Home
The alarm clock went off at exactly 7am blasting whatever the radio channel had decided to play, this particular morning it was playing Lady GaGa. Sharpay groaned and tossed around abit was it really 7 already? she whacked the clock to get the damn thing to shut up and buried her head into the pillow not wanting to move but she knew, she had too. Her daughter was surely bound to be up by now Lily wasn't the type of child to stay in bed and go back to sleep once she was up her mother had to be up. Sharpay managed to get about 10 more minutes of sleep before her 3 year old daughter burst into the room demanding breakfast with her teddybear in her hand Lily sat there and waited for a reaction from her mother.
"Morning sweetie." Sharpay softly said she knew she had to get up now since Lily was up the little girl shot her a cheeky smile "I want breakfast." Sharpay sat up and removed some of hair from her eyes and looked at Lily "go watch TV for abit I'll be down to make you breakfast soon." she told her daughter and with that she left the room.
Sharpay stood up and walked over to her wardrobe to decide what she was going to wear today for work. She flicked through her clothes and eventually decided on a black skirt with a white blouse, she had to look professional since she had your average typical office job she hated it but it payed the bills and put food on the table she quickly changed into her clothes for the day and went to her daughters room she looked through the draws and decided on an outfit for her daughter to wear and walked downstairs.
"Lil baby.." Sharpay spoke as she walked into the living room she saw her daughter sat on the couch waiting for her Lily smiled at her and Sharpay smiled back she quickly changed her daughter into a flowery printed top with white shorts and sandals then took her into the kitchen to fix her breakfast before heading off to work and dropping Lily off at preschool
Sometime later Sharpay left the house to get to work she had to drop Lily off at preschool before she did though. She strapped her daughter into her carseat and handed her daughter a juicecup she got into the car and headed off on her journey first stop was Lily's preschool "Mommy." Lily spoke Sharpay looked at her daughter through the rearview mirror "Something the matter?" Sharpay questioned her child Lily bit her lip and nodded "I don't want to go to preschool." she told her mother. Sharpay sighed she had this day in and day out Lily wasn't that fond of preschool but she'd only just started Sharpay knew she'd get used to it eventually. She glanced at the clock on the dashboard "Great.." she mumbled to herself it was 8:50 she started work at 9 and Lily was supposed to be In class and settled by now traffic was a nightmare. Sharpay knew it'd be awhile before it cleared.
Eventually the traffic cleared and Sharpay managed to get her child to preschool she then had to rush to work she was half hour late and her boss wasn't pleased once she arrived there he called her into the office. She took a seat opposite desk he looked over at her and she softly bit her lip.
"Sharpay, this has been happening a lot lately." her boss told her.
"I know I've just." she stopped thinking of how to explain it "my daughter just started preschool and well she's not exactly happy about it but I'm working on getting here on time." Sharpay told him before Lily started preschool Sharpay left her with a close friend which Lily loved but she was hating the recent turn of events.
"I can't have workers who aren't fully committed to the job." he sighed leaning forward in his chair
"and its clearly obvious your priorities lie with your child I think it'd be best if we let you go."
Sharpay looked at him in shock of course Lily was her number one priority she only took the damn job to put food on the table for her child she looked at her boss"please. you can't I need this job!"
"I'm sorry but my decision is final." he told her Sharpay could tell he wasn't going to budge he was a stubborn man she stood up and looked down on him "thanks for nothing!" she spoke and with that she left the building not having a clue what she was going to do now.
With nothing to do and no job to attend to Sharpay spent the rest of the day at home her bestfriend Brooke had come round who she'd known since they were kids they went too different high schools but always remained close friends Brooke was even the godmother of Lily. Sharpay picked up newspaper looking through it for job vacancies she'd have to find a job fast to keep up with the rent and food for her and her daughter.
Brooke looked at Sharpay "Hey Shar have you ever considered-" she stopped for a second wondering if she should continue Sharpay looked up from her newspaper curious as to what her friend would say "Going home?"
"Going home?" Sharpay questioned "home as in Albuquerque where I grew up?" Brooke nodded slowly and Sharpay sighed she couldn't go home there was too many memories in that town she left behind and she really didn't to relinquish them.
"but your friends and family are there maybe they could help." Brooke shrugged "and wouldn't it be better for Lily to be in a town where her family is?" Sharpay knew Brooke was right but she didn't think she'd ever have the courage to go back. Her family had offered to help her out when they find out she was pregnant 3 years ago but she denied the offer she wanted to raise her child on her. "Well its just a suggestion." Brooke sighed
Sharpay nodded thinking about the idea in a way she kind of liked the idea but then in another sense she detested it. She'd love to go back to see her parents and brother and Sharpay knew Lily would love to see them also but, there was something holding her back from going there and Brooke knew it,
"You don't have to see him he might not even live there." Brooke sighed
"Yes he does Ryan keeps me informed on everything that happens in that damn town Troy Bolton is there and if I move back I'd have to face him." Sharpay spoke she really didn't want to face the man she'd be so intimate with 3 years ago the man that left her with a child he knew nothing about the man she still had feelings for even though she'd never admit it
"I say you go for it and move home you have to see him sometime and Lily deserves to know her dad and he should know he has a child." Brooke informed
Sharpay nodded "Ok Fine I've decided I'm going home." she spoke with some unsureness in her voice but part of her knew she had to face the past sooner or later
