Chapter three

Disclaimer- If I owned High school musical then I wouldn't be here. I'd be swimming in all my money. But I'm not, so I must not own it.

"Evans." Troy said casually as he entered the Evan's household. Sharpay tried her hardest not to roll her eyes as he did.

They had to drive alone together for two hours to get to the wishing fountain and neither of them was looking forward to this. Ryan was actually worried they might kill each other, literally. Unfortunately, Ryan had his own project to work on so he could go with them to keep the peace. He knew that something bad was going to happen while they were gone. You could just feel it.

"Bolton." She replied in her ice queen tone. Now Troy was trying not to roll his eyes. He failed.

"Are you ready?" He asked impatiently.

"Just about." She grabbed her purse and refreshed her lip gloss before turning back to Troy. "Why do we have to go together anyway?" She wondered out loud.

"What?"

"Why can't I just take my car and you take your?" She asked in her 'duh' tone.

Troy rolled his eyes. "Because that's stupid. But what else did I expect from you?"

"Listen Bolton-"

"Guys!" Ryan yelled, causing them both to look at him. "Why don't you guys try getting along for once?"

Sharpay made a disgusted look. "Nah, I'd rather just hate him."

"Have you two ever even tried getting along?"

"Yeah in third grade. It didn't work well for us." Toy replied as he casually looked around the Evan's mansion.

"Well, why don't you try it again? You guys might end up liking each other." Ryan offered as Sharpay made a weird face.

"Puh-lease Ryan. Me and Bolton over here? That's the most disgusting thing I've heard since that woman who gave birth to twin monkeys."

"Wow Evans, that was almost funny." Troy added as he finally looked back at her. For the first time he took note of what she was wearing. She had on a pair of pink flip-flops, fitting jeans, and an orange and pink flowered strapless shirt. He hat to admit that she did look hot, but everyone at school knew she was attractive.

"Kiss my a-"

"Sharpay!" Ah, Ryan and his perfect timing. "Seriously just try to get along. I don't want my sister coming back in a body bag okay."

"I'm sure if the bag was pink Sharpay wouldn't mind at all." Troy sneered like a little kid.

Sharpay scoffed. "Could you be more childish?"

"Holy crap," Ryan butted in while rubbing his temples. "Just go before I get a headache."

Troy was already half way out the door. "I'll be in the truck."

"Hey Shar?"

"Yeah Ry?" Sharpay asked, returning to her sweet voice.

"If he calls, don't answer it." You could see Ryan was worried for her.

"Don't worry I'll be fine. I might be sent to prison for being Troy with a bat, but other than that I'm good."

Ryan shook his head, but smiled. "Just be careful sis."

"Don't worry so much Ry." She gave him a quick hug before heading for the door. "It's bad for your health."

Sharpay rolled her eyes for what seemed like the hundredth time as Troy turned up the radio. It was blasting some rap music. If you could call that music. Rap was one thing she just couldn't stand. It drover her nuts. It was like listening to the oldies with five elderly people singing along to it.

"Troy, could you please change it to something else?" Sharpay asked as nicely as she could.

Troy looked at her and back to the radio. "No."

"Come on Troy. I hate rap, please?" Troy was shocked. Sharpay Evan's was begging...him. He was so going to hold this over her head later. For the moment he decided to be the good guy and turn it off.

Sharpay breathed a sigh of relief as he turned it off. "Thank you."

Troy stared at her a second. Now she was thinking him? This so wasn't the Sharpay he knew. "You're just full of surprises today aren't you?"

"What do you mean?"

"You're being half way nice."

Sharpay rolled her eyes. "This might shock you, but the ice princess does have a heart."

Troy nodded in understanding. "Yeah that's what Gabriella and Zeke always say. I never really believed them before."

Sharpay clenched her jaw as she saw the smirk on his face, but chose to move past it. "So now you do think I have a heart, huh?"

"I guess..." He trailed off, focusing on the road.

"You know this is probably the longest conversation we've ever had without yelling at each other."

Troy cocked his head to the side and back. "I guess."

"So," Sharpay started, staring out the window. "Do you still hate me?"

Troy was a little taken a back. He hadn't expected her to ask that. In fact, he never expected her to ask that. "I never hated you." He admitted honestly.

"Really? You acted like it."

"Yeah, well I'm a good actor." There was a moment of silence until Troy broke it. "You can annoy the hell out of me most of the time, but I never hated you." And for the first time in quite a while, Troy gave her a real smile.

Sharpay gave a weak laugh and returned her gaze to the window. "Maybe Ryan was right. Maybe we can get along."

"Yeah...maybe. But what fun would that be?" And once again Troy gave her an actual smile. If only the gang were here to see this.

"No fun at all." Sharpay returned the smile as they continued their drive.

--

Their little friendship didn't last long once Troy decided to take another route he thought would get them there faster.

"Troy, where the hell are we?" Sharpay asked, completely annoyed.

"How the hell would I know?" Troy replied, also annoyed.

"Hello, you're driving!" Sharpay yelled, finally loosing pertinence.

"Then shut up and let me drive then."

"Don't tell me what to do Bolton." Sharpay warned.

"Then... SHUT THE HELL UP EVANS!"

"Ah, you're the most annoying creature ever created."

"Well you're the coldest ice queen I know. Now just leave me alone for like five freaking minutes, okay." Troy even surprised himself by how calm he'd managed to say that. He partly expected it to come out in a yell.

"Whatever Bolton." Sharpay scoffed as she slid back into her seat, crossing her arms.

By the time they got to the wishing fountain it was dark and they were both pissed. They decided to just go to a hotel and get some sleep so they didn't end up completely killing each other tonight. They also decided to just go to the fountain tonight to get it over with so they could leave first thing in the morning. They didn't want to spend anymore time together.

"You know," Troy started as they came up to the wishing fountain, which was completely abandoned since it was so late. "This really was a stupid idea. I bet nothing will even happen with this stupid wish thing."

Sharpay rolled her eyes like she had been doing all day. "Will you stop complaining?"

"I deserve the right to complain. That's all you've been doing all day."

"Well you've been an ass all day." Sharpay shot back as she stood on the ledge of the fountain with her back turned.

"What the hell are you doing now Evans?" Troy asked impatiently.

"I'm making my wish Dumbass." She replied as she took out a quarter and placed it on her thumb as it rested on her curled index finger.

"Why? I bet this won't even work. Why waste your time?"

"Because I'll try any thing to just get the hell away from you." Sharpay positioned the quarter right and flipped it over her shoulder, causing it to land in the fountain. After she was done she stepped off and gave Troy a funny look.

"What?"

"You're supposed to make a whish Dumbass." She said as she placed her hand on her hip.

Troy rolled his eyes and walked onto the ledge where Sharpay had been. "What did you wish for anyway Evans?"

Sharpay smirked. "That I could skip ahead ten years so I'd never have to see your face again."

"Funny, "Troy flipped a quarter over his shoulder the same was Sharpay had just done."That's what I wished too."
