Chapter Two
"Ryan when are you going to stop?!" Sharpay cried. Both her an Ryan were in their office collecting their belongings, after finishing feeding the penguins at work.
He gave her a goofy smile, "Stop? Stop? Are you kidding me Shar- I'm totally addicted, and look how fun it is!" Ryan help up the fluffy object to her.
"I believe that crack has gone to your head so much that it's now permanent!" She laughed.
The blue fluffy object was now hanging around his neck with tassels on each side. This wasn't the only one he had, there was plenty more where they came from.
"I mean, come on- knitting?!" Sharpay cracked, trying not to cry with laughter.
"Hey-hey! I'm trying to lay off the pot, and knitting relaxes me okay?" She didn't seem impressed, "Besides, how cool does it look? I've got a different one for every outfit nearly, want to borrow-"
"Urm, no! Thanks but no thanks." Sharpay blurted out. "Look no offence Ryan... but it doesn't seem very 'manly' does it?"
Now he was the one to look unimpressed, "What are you saying, that I'm gay?"
"No! Of course not. It's just... god how to i put this..."
"Just spit it out!" Ryan cried hesitantly, his mood transformed so quickly into something ugly.
"...When are you going to settle down, Start a family? You don't want to die alone, right?"
"No, i don't want to die alone. But you know that it's just complicated Sharpay..." He breathed.
"I understand Ryan..." Sharpay nodded.
"But you don't!" He accused.
"I'll see you tomorrow at work, bye Ryan" She sighed, grabbed her jacket and bag and walked out. She knew that was a sensitive matter for her brother and sometimes just leaving him alone was what she had to do to keep him happy.
It was near the end of the work day for Troy and Chad, and they were grabbing their coats and heading for the elevator to get back to their loved ones. They were pre-occupied in conversation to see that the elevator was actually broken.
"So how's it going with Maddie?" Troy asked.
"She's great, you can now start to see more of Lara in her, and she's just so perfect you know? A beautiful girl." Chad grinned, obviously proud of his daughter.
"Well I'm glad, having a daughter seemed to of make you a happier man than before." He pressed the button for the elevator.
"Ever since i met Lara it's all been uphill from there" Chad winked playfully. "How about you and Shar?"
Troy furrowed his eyebrows "What do you mean?"
"Well your married, whats stopping you from having kids? You have a great relationship."
"That's exactly it Chad; we have a great relationship. What if a child ruins that for us? I tried so hard to win Sharpay over i don't want to loose what we've got. You remember how i lost her the first time, i don't think i could go through with it again" Troy sighed.
Seeing that the elevator hadn't arrived just yet, Chad pressed the button for the second time.
"Are you serious?! That's your excuse dude?" He gaped.
Troy nodded, his head bowed down.
"You should me making babies!" Chad blurted waving his hands in the air.
"Excuse me?" Troys eyebrows furrowed once more, wanting an explanation.
"You love her right?" Troy nodded, "And you want to be with her for the rest of you life?"
"Of course, i wouldn't of married her otherwise!" He smiled, thinking of that great day.
"Then your ready!"
"Ready?" Troy questioned.
"Yeah, ready to start the next chapter in your life. I have, and it's amazing. Sharpay loves you, anybody can see that, i don't know what your worried about dude!"
"Wow, since when do you give me advice like that man?" Troy joked.
"Since i was blessed with my beautiful wife and kid" Chad beamed proudly.
They both glanced in the direction of the elevator noticing it still hadn't arrived, they decided to take the stairs.
"What's Sharpay's thoughts on all of this anyways? I'm sure she wants a kid or two."
Troy thought for a while, "We had this conversation about a week ago and i told her how i felt. She didn't say much, except that she was glad that i at least wanted to have a family with her someday..."
"Look i may not have too much experience with love, but it sounds like she wants a family dude" Chad halfheartedly smiled.
"But she never said..." He shuck his head.
"Of course she didn't, you told her that you didn't want to start a family yet; and because she didn't say much shows that she was disappointed with your thoughts, it shows that she doesn't want to hurt your feelings by fighting over this situation. Better yet, it shows you that she loves and respects you."
He didn't know what to say, "Wow, i... she wants a family? If i knew she felt that way than..."
"I think you need to talk to her man" They both reached the bottom of the stairs and headed for their cars.
"Yeah, i think i do. Thanks a lot Chad" Troy admitted.
"No problem dude, when my brother needs me, he needs me." He winked.
"Yeah, ugh, thanks Chadikins" He laughed and they both drove away back home to their beloved wives.
Troy arrived home around 15 minutes later, pulling his car into the driveway.
"I'm home Pay!" He called out, looking around the house for her.
After no response and no Sharpay found yet, he went to the backyard.
Surprisingly, he found her sat outside on the patio bench staring out into space watching the clouds pass by.
"Pay" He said softly, breaking the warm silence outside, gliding towards her.
He startled her, "Oh, hey. I didn't realise you were home..." She gave him a small smile.
Troy sat down next to her, "I think we need to talk Sharpay..." He grabbed her hands.
"I'm pregnant!" She blurted out without thinking.
A/N: Ooooooh, whats he going to say to that?! :P I'm so sorry for the long wait, but i have not been able to find time to update or even try to write anything. It's been chaotic, and it still will be up until June 24th on the day of my last GCSE exam. So again, I'm so sorry and i hope this chapter filled some needs? even a tiny bit?
