Chapter one

A/N- So, Thrusday me and my friend went to see The Stepfather, and it was pretty great (Especially the parts when Peen was shirtless). Anyone else seen that? So, the thought o make it a story kinda popped at me. Tell me what you think.

----

"Sharpay."

Ugh. I can't believe this is happening. Again! I mean, it'd be one thing if it was maybe once or twice throughout my lifetime...but four times! And I'm only seventeen. Is this woman trying to kill me?

"Sharpay, honey."

Well, at least Chuck is a decent guy. I've seen no evidence to hidden bodies or freezer full of body parts...

"Sharpay!"

"Yes?" Sharpay finally answered, not bothering to remove herself from where she knelt infront of their rather large aquarium. She was having fun making faces at the fish. Sometimes she could swear they reacted.

"We need to get going. Shane's plane will land anytime now." Her mother's voice only slightly graced her ears.

Sharpay shrugged, not very concered the very moment. "He can find his way here, can't he?"

"Sharpay! Please, for me, will you try to be a nice, loving, caring, sybling to Shane?"

Sharpay sighed, giving the fish tank a tap and turning to see her mother wearing a pleading look. "But I'm not any of those things."

"Don't have to tell me." Muttered Ryan as he stepped into the room, looking bored and unentertained.

"Why do I have to go? Can't Ry just go meet this guy?"

"Sharpay, we want him to feel welcome. Shane's had a difficult time. And you know, it wouldn't be the worst thing to build a relationship with him. He is your step-brother after all." Her mother warned, raising an eyebrow for effect.

"Not my problem."

"You're impossible."

"Yes, and that's your problem."

Ryan snickered from the doorway. "Funny, you're not nerely this bitchy when you have Troy up in your room. Though you do tend to yell a lot." He smirked.

Sharpay glared a murderous stare, throwing a pillow with deathly accurate aim at his head. "Shut it dork face."

"Oh, that's mature."

"Oh, go lick yourself a cow. That's more action than you'll be getting from Gabriella."

The twin's mother, Stacia, sighed, throwing her arms in the air dramatically. "Will you both just shut up?! We will all go to the airport to meet Shane. You two will behave and be nice and make him feel welcome. He is apart of the family, so make him feel that way dammit!"

Both the twins stayed silent for a moment, before sharing a look. "You really want us to treat him like family?" Ryan wondered, giving his mother a knowing look.

"That's really not going to make him feel very welcome, but hey, whatever you say Ma."

"Knock, knock," Said Chuck as he stood at the doorway, giving the door a couple of taps before looking to everyone in the room. "Everything okay?"

Sharpay and Ryan shared a look and turned their attention to their new step-father, saying in unison, "Define okay."

Their mother sighed, turning to her new husband of only three months. It was easy to see that she was a little stressed out, and her children weren't making it easier. "We're fine. Let's get going."

Sharpay sighed, shrugged, hit Ruan over the head and made her way out the door. She couldn't say she was thrilled. She was just now getting used to having her fourth step-dad since her mom and dad had split when she was in middle school. Now she was getting a step-brother. All she really knew about him was that he had been sent to boarding school for bad behavior after his mom had died. She'd seen a few pictures, but none of themn told her anything about him.

"Aww." Sharpay found herself saying as she stepped outside. Right there was her boyfriend Troy Bolton in all his glory, parked across the street and leaning against his car with a grin. Sharpay ran towards him, jumping in his arms and kissing him. They were always this way. It didn't matter if they had only been apart a couple of hours or days, they just always missed each other. They were passionate about each other.

"What are you doing here?" She asked once they had broken away, a smile gracing her lips, causing him to smile just the same.

"I knew you weren't thrilled about all this, so I thought I'd tag along." He told her, kissing her gently, then turning his attention to Mrs. Evans, well, Sanders now. "If that's okay? I don't mean to intrude."

"Please mommy?" Sharpay pouted, pleadingly as she held on tightly to Troy's hand.

Her mother rolled her eyes. "Well, now you're a sweetheart."

Sharpay got a more stern look on her face, stomping a foot a bit. Ryan found this a good time to intrude. "Mom, just let him. You know he'll end up following anyways and she's so pathetic when she begs. Though I do enjoy the sight."

"Fine, let's go! Everyone in the van, quickly."

Sharpay grinned, as did Troy and they kissed quickly before they all piled into the van.

"This is so boring." Ryan complained as they sat at the airport, awaiting his new step-brother's arrival.

His mother and her new husband weren't paying much attention. They were talking about how excited they were for the new family member to get here. Sharpay and Troy were only interested in each others faces.

"Shar?" Ryan questioned his sister, who was laughing on Troy's lap.

"Yeah?"

"Do you have an STD?" He wondered out loud, a curious expresison on his face.

"For the last time, no." She responded, rolling her eyes and playing with Troy's shirt.

"Have you ever thought of feeding a monkey spoiled milk?"

Sharpay rolled her eyes, facing her brother. "What is wrong with you? Are these things you just lay about in bed and think about?"

"Yes."

She sighed, leaning her head against Troy's chest as he wrapped his arms aorund her. "You really do need to get some Ry."

"Kids," Their mother scolded. "Let's behave. Public place."

"Shane!" Chuck suddenly yelled, excited. He jumped from his seat and rushed over to teengae boy, about seventeen with dark hair and glowing green eyes. His smile seemed forced, and his attitude didn't seem to really match that of his father's. Chuck hugged him tightly, looking happy to have his son back. "How have you been? You've really grown."

Shane nodded, still forcing his smile more and more. "Yup. Well, it has been a year."

"Well, I'm glad to have you home."

Shane furrowed his eyebrows, looking down. "New Mexico isn't really my home, Dad."

If that stung at all, Chuck never let one. He just smiled more and patted Shane's back. "But it will be soon. But let's get you introduced. I feel like you've missed out on an entire chapter of my life while you were gone. Shane, this is my wife, Stacia."

"Hi, nice to meet you. I've been really looking forward to having you here." Stacia said, looking as sincere as possible. Sharpay thought she was laying it on a little thick, but kept her tongue tied.

"This is her son, Ryan." Chuck introduced. "And her daughter Sharpay. They're twins."

"Hi." Sharpay greeted, removing herself from Troy's lap and shaking his hand. She then gestured to Troy, "This is Troy. Don't worry, you have no relation to him."

Troy smirked without humor. "Funny baby, really funny."

"I could be a comedian."

"You could also be fried liver." Ryan commented, skimming through a magazine absent midedly.

"Douche."

"Hooker."

"Children!" Their mother scolded, looking very frustrated. "Sorry about that Shane. But I guess you'll learn to get use to it. If you don't kill them both first." Stacia glared at the twins.

Shane shrugged, and said nothing.

"You're talkative." Sharpay pointed out.

Shane shrugged again, his eyes on hers. "I've got nothing to say."

"Well, I do." Stacia pronouced, cuddling up to Chuck. "Welcome to the family Shane."

----

Was it okay? Was it awful? Need work? Just fine? You tell me.

Shane is kind of like the creepy guy (or will become that way). Let's just say that living with Sharpay does harm on his hormones.

And I hope you liked the first chapter. Thanks for reading.
