--Proposition Chain: HSM Style--
--Chapter 3: Sharpay tells Ryan--
--By: EvilEmmaEvans--
-----------------------------------------------------
Summary: Taylor starts a proposition chain through the group that should end with Troy falling in love with her.
(A/N: A proposition chain is a chain of threats almost that have to be done in a certain amount of time or else the last person is jinxed. – Emma)

--Sharpay's Bedroom- 6 days later--
"RYAN, GET YOUR BUTT IN HERE NOW!" Sharpay yelled from her bedroom door and watched as Ryan came running out of his room, down the hall and into her room at top speed almost knocking her over.
"What happened? Did I forget a rehearsal? Did you get hurt? Why are you laughing?" Ryan asked all without taking a breath in the middle.
"I'm laughing because of the expression on your face," Sharpay said as she wiped the tears from laughing so hard away from her eyes and calmed down.
"Well, how else was I supposed to react to you yelling like that?" Ryan asked looking a little hurt that she had tricked him like that.
"Sorry, Ryan, I didn't mean for you to misunderstand, but how else was I supposed to get you in here without yelling?" Sharpay asked as she walked to her bed and Ryan stayed at the door for a few minutes and then went to sit in her desk chair, "I have something to tell you, and it might shock you," Sharpay finished as she lay down on her side and looked at her brother.
"What is it?" Ryan asked obviously curious.
"Well…" Sharpay started but stopped when she saw Emma, their younger sister, and her best friend Emily, Troy's younger sister, standing in the door way.
"You can continue Sharpay, just act like we're not here," Emma said smirking.
"Um, I'm sorry Em, but this is a senior talk and you two are only juniors, so sorry, but I'm not continuing until you and Emily leave," Sharpay said standing up and walking toward the door.
"Well, it doesn't matter what you do Sharpay because Emily and I will still be able to find out what was said," Emma said standing up straight so that she was the same height as her sister.
"Whatever, Em, just get lost," Sharpay said.
"Hey, don't talk to her/me like that!" Emma, Emily and Ryan said together, startling Sharpay.
"Okay, I can understand Emily and Emma saying something like that, but you," Sharpay said looking at Ryan who just stared back.
"Hey, I care about how people, including you, treat Emma," Ryan said while Sharpay just shook her head and turned back around to find Emma and Emily gone.
"Anyway, back to what I was saying; Taylor likes Troy and wants him by the end of the month, so she started a proposition chain which she told Chad about who told me about it and know I'm telling you," Sharpay said all in one breath.
"Come again," Ryan said confused.
"Well, I have a proposition for you," Sharpay said slowly.
"Okay, I'm listening, so you can continue," Ryan said.
"Well, Taylor likes Troy, and by the end of the month, she wants Mr. East High Hottie away from Gabriella, so she gave Chad a proposition, who in turn gave me a proposition, and now I'm giving you one," Sharpay explained.
"Continue," Ryan said again.
"Well, my proposition to you is, if you can tell Kelsi in 5 days, you can get rid of half of my clothes," Sharpay said, "with as minimal complaining on my part as I can give someone," she finished.
"Deal," Ryan pulling his sister to him and giving her a kiss on the cheek before getting up and heading to Emma's room to hang out with her and Emily.
-----------------------------------------------------
--Later That Night--
'What can I give Kelsi? I know the perfect thing, but how will Sharpay react to it? Maybe I can ask Emma to tell Sharpay, but then again, that would be putting Emma in danger of getting hurt by Sharpay. I better think of something else, but if I can't I'll have to protect Emma to the best of my abilities. Anyway, it's late, I'm tired and I have to work on my English paper, Drama play, History project, French report, Algebra homework, and my Chemistry formulas tomorrow.' Ryan thought as he started to drift off to sleep, which didn't last long on the account that Emma had burst into his room and was continuously saying his name in a scared voice.
"Ryan, Ryan, Ryan, Ryan, wake up," Emma begged her brother while shaking him.
"Emma, what's wrong?" Ryan asked sitting up and pulling her into a hug.
"Well, I was sleeping and then someone came into my room and I got scared," Emma said while crying into Ryan's chest.
"Emma, please calm down, it's going to be alright, it was probably just the storm outside," Ryan said while stroking her hair and letting her cry into his shirt.
"Can I stay with you tonight?" Emma asked while trying to calm down.
"Sure," Ryan said while scooting over to make room for his little sister, who climbed into his bed, got comfortable and soon fell asleep using his chest as a pillow.
-----------------------------------------------------
--Same Time- Sharpay's Room--
"Hey Chad, it's Sharpay, I told Ryan, he has 5 days to tell Kelsi," Sharpay said into her cell phone.
"Yeah, that's great Sharpay, I'll pick you up tomorrow morning at about 9, take you out to breakfast, take you to the mall, carry your bags around, and then end the day with a nice long make-out session," Chad said before hanging up.
"Rude much," Sharpay mumbled to herself before falling asleep to the sound of rain cascading against the roof.
