C2: Chapter Two
SAISD: Some Accept It, Some Don't
Troy was shocked at the news he had just received. How could this have happened?
"Are… are you… sure?" he stuttered.
"Yes. I took sixteen tests and they all said positive or had a plus sign. How are you taking this all in?" Gabriella asked, scared that he might walk away from responsibility like most boys do with situations like this in high school.
Troy inhaled and exhaled loudly. "I'm happy and sad at the same time. I mean, ever since that baby project in eighth grade, I wanted a baby. But… not this early."
"So what are you saying?"
"I'm gonna be there for you and the baby all nine months and the years following the birth," Troy said, smiling. He pulled Gabriella into a tight hug. "I love you."
"I love you, too."
They got up and walked down into the hallways of East High, hand in hand, both smiling. They walked past Sharpay, who just rolled her eyes at them.
"Ryan, why are they so happy?" Sharpay asked her brother.
"Am I Secret Agent Ryan now?" Ryan asked.
"Lose the attitude. When I'm sad and depressed, everyone should be sad and depressed!" Sharpay exclaimed.
"Why would you be sad and depressed? Dad just got you your 20th car. You don't even drive!" Ryan said.
"If I tell you, you have to promise not to tell mom, dad, or any other person in this school," she whispered.
"Promise."
"I think I'm pregnant… with baker boy's baby."
"How'd that happen?" Ryan asked.
"Well, you see— he's coming up to me, go!" she said, pushing Ryan away from her.
"Why'd you push your brother?" Zeke asked.
"It's this new exercise technique we're doing," Sharpay lied.
"Well, I better get going. Just wanted to stop by and speak to you before class," Zeke said.
That is so sweet. Maybe having his baby isn't such a bad thing… Sharpay thought.
"Zeke, before you go, I have to tell you something important," she said.
"What?"
"Um… you remember that baby project in the eighth grade?" she asked.
"Yeah, why?"
"You're about to have another project just like it… except it's not a project… it's the real thing."
"Are you… pregnant?" he said, whispering 'pregnant'.
"I think so."
"Wow."
"'Wow'? Is 'wow' all you can say?" Sharpay asked.
"Well, yeah. I mean, I'm speechless. I don't know what to say!"
"How about 'I'm gonna be there for you'!" Sharpay yelled.
The hallways fell silent; every eye fell on Zeke and Sharpay.
"I'm gonna get back to you on that," Zeke said walking off.
Ryan suddenly appeared. "I'll take it that went well," he joked, or tried to joke.
Sharpay ignored him while her eyes filled with tears. She ran to the bathroom so no one could see her cry. On her way in, she passed by Taylor.
Why can't my life be like hers? Sharpay thought.
Why can't my life be like hers? Taylor thought a couple of feet away from the bathroom.
"You wanted to see me?" Chad said, shocking Taylor as he jumped out of a corner.
"Yeah… follow me outside. I want to be away from everyone," Taylor said, grabbing Chad's hand and leading him outside.
"What is it? What's wrong?" Chad asked.
"Well, I thought you should know I will be making an ultrasound appointment in three or four months," Taylor said.
"Why do you need an ultrasound? Ultrasounds are for people who are pregnant, and I know you're not pregnant," Chad stated, laughing. His laugh stopped quickly when he realized Taylor didn't crack a smile.
"That's what I'm saying. I'm pregnant," Taylor said.
To Taylor's surprise, Chad started smiling. "Are you serious?" he asked.
"Well, I didn't expect you to start smiling," she said, laughing.
Chad went up to her and hugged her. "Don't be surprised if I go to the nurse's office. It'll probably be I'm throwing up and my teacher thinks I'm having a stomach virus."
"Okay," Chad said smiling. Then, he suddenly stopped.
"Why'd you stop smiling? I thought you were happy," Taylor said.
"I have to tell my parents," Chad said.
"Oh." Taylor knew Chad's parents. They got on him for every little thing. If he dropped a piece of paper, they'd order him to pick it up or he'd be grounded for a week.
"Well, I'll be there with you so nothing can go wrong," Taylor said.
"Thanks."
