Disclaimer: I own nothing just the plot…sadly . Enjoy! Tell me what you think.
Troy Bolton is dating Sharpay Evans.
Sharpay Evans has a crush on Zeke Baylor.
Zeke Baylor is Chad Danforth's cousin.
Chad Danforth is dating Taylor McKessie.
Taylor McKessie is best friends with Gabriella Montez.
Gabriella Montez… well she's all of their best friends, which only spells trouble.
Sharpay Evans and Troy Bolton seemed like a perfect couple to the students of East High School. These six people though, they knew better. These two were less than perfect for each other. In fact, they were horrible to each other. They fought constanly and never agreed on anything and I mean ANYTHING. And Gabriella Montez had to hear from both sides of it. Sure being Troy Bolton's best friend was great. You get practically all the special treatment he gets. All the guys want you. Girls want to be you. But… it also had its down sides. Like, for instense, you have all the girls hating on you constantly, either that or asking for his number. And you get to hear about all his girl drama. YAY! NOT!
Being Sharpay Evan's best friend is great to. You have nobody wanting to mess you because they know if they do they'll have to face Sharpay. It also has its down sides though too. Like, the constant drama she gets into. When you get into a fight, Sharpay is not a happy person. In fact, it makes you question why your friends in the first place. But in the end you make up and just have to deal with a little anger pointed at you for a while.
When something goes wrong in Troy Bolton and Sharpay Evans relationship, both go straight to Gabriella. Of course Gabriella is a total help, but she is sick and tired of being in the middle. Gabriella knows where her loyalty lies. Although, she can't imagine losing either of them, if she had to chose she knows exactly who she would.
"He just… ugh! I really despise him right now." Sharpay screamed.
"By tomorrow you guys will be over this and you'll be fine and happy." Taylor said comfortly.
"Oh no, not this time. I think I'm… uh going to end things." Sharpay gulped.
"You say that every time Shar." Gabriella finally spoke.
"Gabi, I'm in a crisis right now. I need your sweet, innocent words. What's wrong with you?" Sharpay asked.
"I'm sorry Shar. It's just I'm tired of saying the same stuff every week. I mean you two get in a fight like this every week. I have to hear the wrath of both sides and I'm sick of it. If you say you're going to end things then do it already. But if you're not going to break up with him, then stop saying you are and suck it up and deal with things." Gabriella said frustrated.
"Gabi are you okay?" Taylor asked.
"Jeez, Gabs I thought you were on my side." Sharpay said annoyed and hurt by her words.
"I'm fine, Tay, thanks. And Shar I told you when you and Troy started dating and when you two had your first fight, I wouldn't be on anyone's side. I'm still Switzerland okay?" Gabriella's anger was dying down.
"Fine El, whatever." Shar was still annoyed.
"Shar come on don't act like this." Gabriella said temper rising.
"I'm not acting any different than I was five minutes ago." Sharpay snapped back at her.
"Sharpay, be serious you're giving me the cold shoulder."
"No I am not!" Sharpay said getting angry.
"Yes you are!" Gabriella said aggravated.
"Fine I'm just… ugh! Jealous okay?" Sharpay whispered the last part.
"Jealous. Of me? Why?" Gabriella questioned no longer yelling.
"Yes of you dumbass" Sharpay said annoyed.
"But why? I mean I've always been kinda jealous of you. I just figured that was how it was, you know? I was jealous of you and you kept living your big glamorous life." Gabriella was shocked by this new confession and that Sharpay had actually admitted it. That itself was even more shocking!
"Really? Weird huh?" Sharpay said surprised.
"Why are you jealous of me?"
"Why are you jealous of me?" Sharpay shot back not wanting to let her guard down anymore. She didn't know why she did in the first place. Sharpay was not one to let people see her insercurties. This whole Troy thing must really have her worried.
"Shar I asked you first." Gabriella childishly said.
"I asked you last so there!" Sharpay retorted.
"Shar, that doesn't even make sense."
"So……" Sharpay replied.
"Fine I was jealous of your… well everything." Gabriella paused. "You know, your relationship with your brother, how great that is. God knows my siblings and I don't even speak. Also, I guess your money and how you get everything you want. And-"
"It is pretty great isn't it" Sharpay interrupted.
Taylor speaking up for the first time said, "And what? You never finished since Sharpay rudely interrupted you."
Gabriella wondered if she should say it. I mean she didn't even know where it came from. Why would she be jealous of Sharpay and Troy when she was closer to Troy than Sharpay was? "Oh um, I guess that was it. I can't seem to think of what I was going to say. So um… Shar why are you jealous of me?"
"Oh you know… stuff." Sharpay said.
"Shar, come on you can tell me. I told you." Gabriella said curiosity etching into her voice.
"Fine. But I swear if either of you two tell anyone one word about this, the rest of your career at East High will be a living hell got that?" Sharpay threatened. " I like people thinking I have no heart." Shar added and then continued when they nodded. "Okay well, I was er, am jealous… because you're so close to Troy. I just sometimes I feel like that should be me. Well I wish that could be me. I know that it never will. You're so close it's like you should be his girlfriend, like I'm standing in the way. Also, you and your parents are so close, you can tell them everything. I've always wanted that." Sharpay took a deep breath finally breaking.
"Shar… you know it's not like that." Gabriella didn't know what else to say. She had never heard Sharpay talk like this. This just wasn't her. "Troy and I were just, um really good friends- best friends. We've known each for, well our whole lives. If something was going to happen it would have already. You're not standing in anyone's way but your own." Gabriella stressed but somehow disappointed in what she had said about something not happening, but shook the thought faster than it entered.
"Thanks El, really, you too, Taylor. Both of you, for putting up with me. Most people would have just dropped me." Sharpay said.
Taylor and Gabriella just smiled and said no problem, but were soon interrupted.
"Hello?" Gabriella answered. "Troy? Whose phone do you have? Why do you have Katie's phone? That doesn't make sense. Okay, okay, jeez I'll be right there." Gabriella said as she hung up the phone. "Girls Troy apparently has an emergency that Chad can't fix so he needs me. I'll see you at the party." Gabriella ended as she walked out the room as fast as she could.
"See ya Gabs." Taylor called while Sharpay just nodded. Jealous that Troy called Gabi and not her even if they were in another fight.
"Troy?" Gabriella called, knocking on Troy's bedroom door.
"Come in" Troy hollered.
"Hey. So what do you need me for, sir?" Gabriella said in her best English accent. "Sharpay was not happy with me by the way." She added.
"Well I'm sorry that Sharpay wasn't happy with you. I thought I was just a little more important than Sharpay." Troy said frustrated.
"Troy what's wrong?" Gabriella asked worried. "You know you mean more to me than, well anyone." Gabriella continued. She walked over to him, grabbed his hands and squeezed them tightly.
"Brie… I don't know what to do anymore. I just, I like Shar, I do. I just don't want her anymore, you know?" Troy said even more stressed out than before.
"God, more Sharpay and Troy problems. That's about all anyone talks about anymore, huh? I don't know anymore Troy. I don't know what to say to you or Shar anymore. I'm just sick of it all. Maybe you two just really do need a break." Gabriella hoped he would agree.
"Maybe… or maybe I just need to let loose for a night."
"I don't know Troy. Like I said I'm sick of this."
"I'm sorry Brie. You know, for you being stuck in the middle." Troy said sincerely.
"I think we both just need to party hard tonight."
"Agreed!" Troy said excitedly.
"Good then let's get ready." Gabriella smiled while Troy smiled his big smile back at her making her heart skip a beat. She didn't know what to do about this new family and honestly it scared her.
"Thanks Gabs. You always know how to make me feel better. It really means a lot." Troy smiled again.
"Troy" Gabriella paused. "I would do anything for you and you know that. You're all I have."
"I know and same goes for you Brie." Troy's eyes sparkled as he looked into Gabriella's chocolate brown orbs. Gabriella could feel her heart melt even more. Troy couldn't help but think of ending things with Shar and doing it soon. He was shocked by this new discovery and new fondness for his best friend.
