Author Note #1: Here is chapter two. I wrote this one after writing chapter one and I was going to post it the next day but to me it seems this story doesn't have any fans. So I'm sorry for the delay. I'm finishing the third chapter and then I'm going to begin writing the fourth. When the fourth is halfway done I'll post chapter three. So be on the look out for chapter three either tomorrow or the following day. Review please.
Chapter Two
Just the Beginning Part 1
"Mom, I'm home." Sharpay said as she entered the apartment. She locked the front door and walked into the into the living room. When she entered she saw something she was all too familiar with. Her mother passed out on the couch. Sharpay let out a heavy sigh.
"Great. Just great, mom." Sharpay walked over the couch stepping over all of the empty beer cans that were all over the floor. She grabbed the blanket that was on the floor. She shook the blanket and then placed it over her mothers body. Sharpay heard the toilet flush and looked towards the bathroom door. A man who looked to be in his early to late 40s walked out of the bathroom.
"She has a daughter? Well at least you're grown." He said taking a seat on the floor in front of the small living room table. He grabbed the open beer can that was on the living room table a took a sip. He looked at Sharpay who was staring at the ground.
"What's your name?" He asked her. Sharpay raised her head and looked at him. "My name is Sharpay. It's nice to meet you." She said with a smile. "Are you my mother's boyfriend?" Sharpay questioned.
The man took another sip of his beer. "Something like that." He replied. "Wanna beer?" He asked. Sharpay shook her her. "No. No, thank you." She answered him in the most polite way she could. "Nonsense, come on. Loosen up." He told her.
Sharpay shook her head again and declined. The man kept on pushing her to have a drink with him and she kept on declining. She couldn't believe how stubborn he was being. The man grabbed Sharpay's wrist and pulled her down to the floor.
He opened a beer and placed it in front of her. "Come on take a sip." She rolled her eyes. She had rejected his offer so many times what made him think she would take a sip. Sharpay was once again going to reject his offer, when she heard her mother groan.
Sharpay and the man turned their heads to look at her mother as she rose from the couch and took at spot on the floor.
"Ken, you're still here. I thought you would've left. Seeing how I fell asleep on you." She said with a drunken laugh.
"Oh, Sharpay. You're home." Her mother said taking notice that her daughter was home.
"Hi, mom." Sharpay said in a soft tone. Sharpay's mother took the beer can that was in front of Sharpay and drank some.
"Oh, you weren't going to drink that, right?" Her mom asked, already knowing the answer was going to no. Sharpay nodded in response.
Ken took a long drink from the beer can and placed it back in the table. "Having a grown daughter is good. Means you're free to have all the fun you want." He took one final drink and threw the empty can on the floor.
"How old is she?" Ken asked her mother. Sharpay felt that he should have asked her because when it came to anything concerning her life her mother didn't give a damn.
"How the hell should I know?" She said. She turned to face her daughter. "How old are you Sharpay?" Her mother asked. Sharpay wanted to tell her off. How could not know how old her own daughter is?
"I'm twenty-two."
Sharpay mother's looked at her with a confused look. "Since when?" She asked.
Are you serious?' Sharpay thought. She looked at her mother with a disappointed face. "Since today." She replied. Her mother gasped. "Today's your birthday and you didn't even tell me." Her mother said sounding hurt. Sharpay wanted to tell her that as her mother she should have already known that it was her birthday.
"Sorry?" She said not knowing how to answer her mother.
"Hey," Ken started. "Since its her birthday maybe we should have a little celebration. Huh? Just the three of us. Would you like that Sharpay?"
"There's no need for that. Right, Sharpay?" Her mother asked her. Sharpay looked at her mother with sad eyes and nodded. "Good." She said.
"Now Sharpay, be a dear and go to your room."
Sharpay rose from the floor, picked up her bag and walked to her room. Upon entering her room, Sharpay threw her bag on the chair that was positioned by the window. She sat on her bed in her small room. Through her door she could her mother and her mother's lover laughing.
Sharpay wore a sadden look on her face. She didn't want to be in the room with them but she couldn't believe how her mother had just casted her away. She began to take off her clothes and switched into her night wear. Sharpay went under her covers and got comfortable.
Sharpay wondered if there was anyone out there that understood what she was going through, because at the very moment she felt so alone. Sharpay yawned and drifted off to sleep with the thought in her head.
As soon as Sharpay had woke up, she immediately started to clean up the apartment. She picked up all of the beer cans that her mother and Ken left on the living floor and she swept the floor. As she was washing the dishes she heard her mother yawn. Sharpay' s mother -Vivian- sat up in the couch and looked at her surroundings.
"Sharpay, where's Ken?"
"I don't know mother. When I woke up he was gone." Sharpay answered finishing up with the dishes. Vivian scratched her head. "That's kinda cold. Don't you think?" She asked. Sharpay shrugged as she placed the plates in the dish rack. Vivian got off the couch and walked into the kitchen and sat down.
"Water, please." Sharpay turned off the hot water and waited a few seconds for it to get cold before she handed her mother the water. "Thank you." Vivian said, once Sharpay had handed her the water. Vivan drank some and then lit her cigarette that was on the table.
'Okay. Better now than never' Sharpay thought. "Um, mom can I asked you a question?" She said nervously. "What is it?" Her mother asked without looking at her taking a drag from the cigarette. "I was wondering if it would be okay if I were to move out, and live on my own?"
"By yourself? Are you sure you don't mean with a man?" She asked. Sharpay knew her mother wasn't stupid. She knew that her mother most have known she had a boyfriend. After all, there were times when Sharpay would come home late at night or the next morning.
"His name is Troy Bolton. I'll introduce you next time. I promise" Sharpay started. "He's a very nice guy. He works as a social worker and I'll keep paying for this apartment, like I have been doing before. So don't worry." She took a second to catch her breath. "So can I?" Sharpay finished.
"Okay. As long as you pay the rent." Her mom said. A huge smile appeared on her face. "Oh, thank you mom. Thank you." Sharpay cheered.
'Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm going to take a shower. Be a dear and put this out." Vivian said handing the cigarette to Sharpay. Sharpay turned on the faucet and placed the cigarette under the flowing water.

"Coming!" A feminine voice yelled. The woman opened her door and saw Troy and a woman standing outside her door. "May I help you?" She asked. The women looked like she was in her early 30s.
"Hi. I'm Troy Bolton from Albuquerque Children's Welfare. You have a seven year old son. Is that right?" Troy asked the woman.
"Yes I do." She told him.
"And where is he?" Troy questioned.
"Um, he is currently staying with my mother." The lady said. "W-what is this all about?" She asked Troy. "We just have some questions concerning your son. May we come in?"
"I'm sorry. I have some shopping to do." She told him as she exited her home and locked the door. Troy let out a sigh.
"We could go to the grandmothers home. To check out the story." Troy's assistance said. Troy nodded.
The duo made their way to the car when Troy's phone started to ring. Troy reached into his pocket and took out his cellphone and saw Sharpay's number on the screen.
"You go ahead. I'll catch up." Troy's assistance nodded and went to the car.
"Hey, Shar. What's going on?" Troy asked.
"We can live together! My mother said yes."
"Really..."
"Yeah. I'm so happy right now Troy."
"Me too."
"Okay, well I'll let you get back to work. I'm going shopping today for the plates and stuff and I'll bring my stuff to your apartment on Saturday."
"Okay. I can't wait, Shar. I'll see you on Saturday then."
"Yeah. See you."
Author Note #2: Well I got two reviews and there are four people who have me on alert. To those people I'd like to say thank you. I kinda disappointed that I didn't get more reviews seeing how I got 90+ hits. I hoped liked this chapter. And I'm thinking of leaving the story at the T rating and just write the M rated scenes and posted them as the missing scenes. Tell me what you guys think. Please review.
