Chapter 3

disclamer-I own nothing.

--

Troy ran into the hospital sprinting, but who could blame him. He'd just gotten a call from Mrs.Evan saying that Sharpay and Chad had been in an accident. Troy looked in the waiting room to see Sharpay and Chad's parents talking. Ryan and Gabby were both there also, along with Taylor. Soon after Troy reached the waiting room Zeke and Jason ran into the waiting room also, and very out of breathe. They had also been running, but neither of them were as fast or determined as Troy was. He was scared. Everybody was. He looked around the room to see the worried looks on everbody's face. He was sure he had the same exspression. Troy sat down next to Ryan and could tell he was scared, very scared. Sharpay was his best friend. They were together everyday of their lives...well pretty much. He loved Sharpay with all his heart, she was his little sister, by 12 minutes. He had always protected her, but he hadn't been able to protect her this time.

"How are they?" Troy asked quitely.

"Chad broke his leg, and there's no word on Sharpay." Ryan ansawered trying his hardest not to let a tear shed. He wasnted to be strong...for his parent. He knew if he cried they would, and as much as he felt like crying, it would just hurt him more to see his parents like that.

"I'm sure it's going to be okay, Sharpay's one of the toughest people I know. She's going to be fine." Troy said putting his hand on Ryan's shoulder.

Ryan looked up at him with a look that said he was scared, worried, concerned, and sad all at the same time. "I hope to God you're right."

About thirty minutes later the doctor came out and told Chad's parents that he was going to be okay and that they could go see him, so Chad's parent's went it first.

"Doctor, how's Sharpay, is she okay?" Mrs.Evans asked, her eyes pleading for him to tell her she was okay.

"She'll be just fine." He said as everyone let out a sigh of relive and a few said 'Thank God.' "She is badly hurt though, she will need plenty of time to recover, She'll have to stay in the hospital for a while though. She had a couple broken ribs and sprained her wrist, but she should make a full recovery. " He completed, everyone was releaved she was okay.

"Thank you very much Doctor." Said Mrs.Evans shaking his hand.

"Yes, thank you." Said Mr.Evans standing up and Shaking hands with him also.

"No problem, she won't be awake for a while, but you're welcome to go see her."

"Thanks." Said Mr.Evans as the doctor walked away.

Sharpay's parents went in and spoke with her, even though she wasn't awake she could still hear what they were saying. After they came out of the room it was easy to see that Mrs.Evans had been crying. Ryan and Gabby went in next.

"Hey Pay." Said Gabby in a quite voice while sitting down next to her as Ryan sat on the other side.

"I know that since you can hear me, I wanted to tell you how much I care about you. I know you're probibly going to hear everyone who come in the door say that, but you're my best friend, and you always will be. Till the very end of the Earth, it's you and me babe." Gabby smiled. It was something between Shar and Gabby. They had always said that whenver one of them was down and the other was there to pick up the pieces. They would be there for each other till the end of the Earth.

Gabby looked at Ryan who was smiling at his sister. "I'm gonna give you two a moment, okay? I'll be in the waiting room." She said giving him a peck on the cheek as she walked toward the door.

"Thanks Gabs." He said looking back at her with a smile then looked back to his sister. Her face had a few scrapes on it, and the doctor said she had a pretty big bruise on her stomach and a few other places. It was almost to much for him to take. He hated seeing his sister hurt like this, hurt at all. He hated it even more that there was nothing he could do. "Listen Shar, I know we have our little brotherly-sisterly fights, but you know that I love you so much, and it kills me to see you like this. If I could trade places with you, I'd do it in a heartbeat. Anything to take the pain anyway." He took a deap breathe and took her hand. "You're the greatest sister in the world, and also the greatest best friend a guy could ever ask for. I love you pay-pay." He got up and kissed her forhead then walked out. Taylor and Troy went in next.

"Hey girly." Started Taylor. "I know we had a rocky start, but you've become like a sister to me, and I couldn't be happier that we're friends. You're sweet, supportive, kind, funny, smart, and damn do you know how to dance." Her and Troy both laughed a bit. "You're talented and down right a great person and friend, and definitly one of the most intersting people I've ever met. You've been there a lot of times. Like when I was too scared to swim, you taught me how and encouraged me to jump off the diving board, and promised you'd be there, and you were. Right by my side as I was completely freaking out, and screaming like a baby. You're really are the best Shar." Taylor smiled and said bye then left so Troy could talk to her.

"Wow, what to say about Sharpay Evans." He smirked to himself then became serious when he finally got a good look at her face. Even though she had cuts on her face, she still looked beautiful. "Shar, you're an amazing girl, and..." Troy struggled for words, he wanted to tell her how he felt, but he wasn't exactly sure how he was feeling. he wasn't sure if all this was just a crush or acual love. At this moment he was pretty sure he was head-over-nikes for this girl. "I love you Sharpay." He said in a whisper. Even if she could hear him, she probibly couldn't have heard that, he had said it so quitely. "I'm just so happy you're okay." He said returning to his normal voice and brushing her hair out of her face, and cupping her head in his hands just running his thumb across her chin. Sharpay's eyes slowly fluttered and she placed her hand over his which was still on her cheek. "I love you too." She said about as loud as Troy had said it, but it was because she was still really weak.

To say the least...Troy was shocked. He was about to fall out of his chair, but then happieness swept over him. Not only was she awake and okay, but she loved him too. "Sharpay, Oh my God. You're awake."

"Oh, I thought I was dreaming." She said giving him a smile.

He returned the smile then leaned down and placed a gently kissed on her lips. "I'm so happy you're okay."

"Yeah...me too. You know dieing before prom would have truly sucked." She smiled at him, which told him she was kidding.

Troy smiled and kissed her cheek. "I'm going to go tell your parents and everybody you're awake, okay."

"Okay-dokey." Troy smiled at her and left. He couldn't help but have a huge grin plastered on his face.
