A/N- Okay so this is my, Annie, chapter, like I mentioned on my first one, we both update quickly so these are going to be fast updates, please review for every chapter though! We appreciate the reviews!!!! So yeah!
Sharpay slipped out of her hospital bed, grabbed her IV bag stand thingy (sorry I have no idea what
there called, but you know what I'm speaking of though, right??) She made her way down the hall of
intesive care. She pushed open Troy's room door, it felt so heavy to her sore arms, it was her fifth day in the
hospital, she wasn't as badly hurt as Troy, obviously, he hit his head, and now was in acoma, She had a few
broken ribs, and some minor head trauma, the doctor wanted to keep her in for at least two weeks, As for Troy,
Lord only knew his fate, he had slipped into a coma, only an hour after they were rushed in. Yesterday the doctor
revealed he too had no idea what was to be of Troy. He had a machine breathing for him, a tube eating for
him... Sharpay sat in the chair she always sat in, she grabbed his hand. "Its not fair Troy." She said. She began
to weap. ''Don't cry, I'm going to be fine'' Troy said in his head. He could hear her, he could feel her, but only in
his head could he responde. "I know you can hear me.. I just do. Troy try to do something, open your eyes,
c'mon I know you can do it." Sharpay said squeazing his hand. He gathered all his strength, he tried to open his
eyes, his eyelids felt like they wieghed a billion tons, "I'm trying Shar, I really am, You have no idea how bad I
want to see your face" He thought. " I know your trying, its okay.. save your energy." Sharpay said bring his hand
close to her face, she kissed his knuckles. "Your going to be okay." Sharpay said bringing his hand back to his
side. She brushed his brunette strands of hair out of his face. Then she stared at the gauze pad covering cut in
his head. She suddenly remembered the car, the driver that did this to them. "Troy, theres something I have to
do, but I'm going to be back as soon as find something out., I love you, I'm going to be back real soon." She
said and kissed his cheak. "I love you too" He thought as he heard her leave the room
Sharpay made her way down the hallway, she was trying to run, and it wasn't working, it felt like eternity
before she made it to her destination, the nurse's desk. "Do you know were my doctor is?" Sharpay asked the
nurse who was looking at someones file, "Whose your doctor,hun?" The smiling brunette nurse asked "Doctor
Barrett." Sharpay said not returning the smile. "He's making his rounds right now, I'm sure he'll be stoping in
your room shortly." The nurse said brushing her bangs out of her face. "This is really important." Sharpay said
rolling her eyes. "I'm sure it is, if theres anything I can do I will." The nurse said setting the file she had been
looking through on the counter, the name was 'Albert Simmon' 'why does that name sound so farmiliar?'
Sharpay thought. She knew she had heard it some were. Of corse, she had been just waking up when the nurse
and the doctor were talking and the nurse had asked Dr Barett about the other driver, and he had said he was
down the hall and his name was Albert Simmon, How could she had forgotten that?? "Never mind.. I don't need
him any more. But could you get me a glass of apple juice?" Sharpay asked the nurse to distract her. "Sure."
The nurse said and walked off to get the juice, Sharpay made sure no one was looking and grabbed the file and
took off as fast as she could to her room.
She sat down on her bed, and turned on her TV, so if the doctor or nurse walked in she could quickly
hide the file and make it look like she was watching TV. She opened the file, Albert M Simmon, 35yr old male,
caucasion, 6'1, 225 lbs. Sharpay read the medical history that wasn't what she was looking for though, she
needed to know the room number. "Uhhuh." Sharpay said running her finger over the room number, just five
rooms down, she had passed this man's room several times on her way to see Troy, had he ever seen her? Did
he recognize her from the night of the crash? Did he know the harm he had done to her and Troy? She
wondered.. She set the file on her night stand and flipped through the channels, Dr Barett was right outside her
door, she could here his low, raspy voice. "Hello Sharpay!" He said all cheary. "Hi Doctor." Sharpay said. "How
are you feeling today?" He asked glancing at the nurses notes. "Um... fine." Sharpay said wanting to get him out
as soon as possible. "Hows your head?'' the doctor asked. "Fine." She said not really being honest. "Really,
cause I got your CT scan back earlier today, and you have a Subarachnoid hemorrhage, which is bleeding in
the area between the brain and thin tissues surrounding the brain." He said changing his tone to a more
serious one. Sharpay looked scared, if she died who would care for Troy? She thought. 'I've already told your
parents... they wanted me to tell you." Dr Barett said. "Oh." Sharpay said. The doctor sat on the bed side chair.
"The type of hemorage you have is more common for women than men, and one of the leading causes is motor
vehicle accidents." the doctor said. "Like I asked I have already discussed all of this with your parents,
hemmorages are more likely if there is a family history, turns out your great grandfather had one due to clotting.
So are you going to tell me how you've really been feeling lately?'' Dr. Barrett asked. Sharpay felt her eyes tear,
"I've had headaches, Um my neck has been really stiff, I've been a little nausaus, I couldn't eat my breakfast..
Brightness has been kind of bothering me." Sharpay confessed. "I thought so, those are all syptoms of a
Subarachnoid hemorrhage along with, vision problems, siezures, mood and personality changes, lossof
movement, decresed alertness, and of corse the headache, which most describe as the ''worst headache
ever'' it usually starts out fine, then hurts really bad in the back of the head." Dr. Barrett explained. "How bad is i
t?" Sharpay asked pulling her blankets tighter. "Well your CT scan and MRI showed you have decreased nerve
function, the eye exam you had the first day you were here showed bleeding in the brain, fortunatly you have one
of the less serious cases I've seen." He said handing her a stack of pamphlets on it. Her eyes scanning the
covers of the pamphlets. "What are the treatments?" She asked. "Well of corse whenever we do treatments for
head trauma, our goal is to save your life, not to scare you, but that is our main goal." the doctor said, Sharpay
wiped off a tear. "Usually when this is caused by injury, surjury is the only cure, to remove large blood build up
and decrease pressure, another thing we do is insert a draining tube. Of corse you will be ordered to strict bed
rest. And you are going to have avoid activity that causes pressure to the head, like bending over, sudden
change of position, any mucsle straining, Including any bowel movement, which is why I'm prescribing stool
softners and of corse some pain killers for your headaches." He said writing out the perscription now. "Okay..
but what are we doing for mine?" She asked definatly not wanting brain surgery or a draining tube. "Right, like
I've said you have a very minor case so I'm going to get you something to clot, so it will decrease the blood build
up, and there is some therapy I'd like you to attend." he explained. "Thats all? I don't need surgery or any
tubes?" Sharpay asked relieved. "I don't believe so, we'll be keeping a close eye on you, and your going to
have to have frequent CT scans and MRI's." He said. "You got lucky!" He added. "Yeah." Sharpay said wishing
Troy the same luck. "So thats all.. Oh and be sure to read those pamphlets, tell the nurses if somethings wrong,
and I'm going order your perscription right away!" Dr Barrett said. "K, thank you, and the nurse left this in here."
Sharpay said handing him Albert's file. ''Oh, thank you." he said leaving. Sharpay put her head back and rubbed
her temples, She had to go and tell Troy, but she really wanted to go and see the man that had done this to
them... she decided she would go see Troy later on tonight, now she had to see Albert. She slipped out of her
bed. She pushed the heavy door open and passed four doors before reaching his, she looked at it for a while,
then she pushed the door open. There he was, brown greasy hair scatered every were, he was discusting.
"Who the hell are you!?" He shouted. She laughed sarcasticly. "Of corse you have no idea." she said. ''Are you
crazy?? I'm getting the nurse." He said. "No, just let me explain, my name is Sharpay, Sharpay Evans, you
crashed into me and my boyfriends car four nights ago, you were drunk." Sharpay explained. He rolled his eyes.
"What do you want from me?" He asked harshly. "Do you know what you did to him? Thats what I want from you,
for you to know what you did to the man I love. For you to know, who he is, what he is, or could have been."
Sharpay said in a insecure shaky voice. "I don't want to hear it!" Albert said shaking his head. "Its the least you
can do for me.." Sharpay trailed off. "Least my lawyer just imfomed me I'm getting sued by one of the best
lawyers around, by your parents and that other kids." Albert said. "I'll get them to drop it if you just listen to me."
Sharpay said with a blank expression. "Fine." Albert sighed. "Troy Bolton." Sharpay smiled at his name.
"Basketball MVP, and team captain, East High Wild cats.. He's garanteed the best college edgacation and
team by over twenty colleges." Sharpay said. "So he's got a great future, look I don't know were your going with
this, cause if your trying to guilt me its not going to work, that night was one of the funnest of my life, the crash
just ended it, but no big, third crash of the year, first to actually hospitalize me or the other driver." He bragged.
"Actually I don't know what kind of future he has, the doctor doesn't know if he'll ever wake up." Sharpay cried.
"Wawa, write a book." Albert said. "That night, November thirtieth, him, his three best friends, Sharpay, Chad
and Taylor, were going to a concert, Sharpay's parents said she couldn't go, Troy being her best friend, said
he'd skip the concert and come and get her, they'd get icecream fromt the ice cream shop they'd gone tosince
they were toddlers... As planed they did. Sharpay realised how much she loved him, Troy must have then
too,cause right then she looked at him and said she loved him, he said he loved her back, they kissed."
Sharpay said covering her mouth as she started to sob recalling the events of the night. Albert sat stairing at the
wall, seeming untouched. "Then I looked up and saw two lights coming toward us, the car rolled I screamed,
Troy held me, and now he's in acoma, now he might not have a life outside the hospital bed, the doctor said he
doesn't want to watch him suffer, if Troy doesn't wake up in a year, there pulling the plugs.'' Sharpay cried. "I
don't care, why are you still standing here." Albert spat, "I don't care what dammage I've done, hopefully the
perfect little bastard dies before they have a chance to pull the plugs." Albert said with a discusting look on his
face. "Go to hell you heartless bastard." Sharpay said copying his tone, she turned and walked down the hall
closer to Troy's room. "Sharpay hunny!" She heard from behind her, she turned to see her parents, Ryan, and
the Boltons. "Hey." she said wiping her tears off. ''We stopped in your room and you weren't there, we figured
you had made your way down to Troys." Mrs Evans said. Sharpay smiled, 'Yeah" she said following every one
in the room. "So I assume Dr. Barrett has talked to you." Mr Evans said. "Yeah." Sharpay said taking the seat
next to Troy's bed, Gina Bolton on the other side. "Oh yeah, we heard about that, good luck." Gina said smiling
at Sharpay. "Whats wrong with Sharpay, are you okay?" Troy asked in his head worried for Sharpay. "Yeah,
what are they doing for it?'' Jack Bolton asked. ''I'll be on pain killers for the head aches, and some clotting
medication to decrease blood build up, then I'll have frequent CT scans and MRI's." Sharpay explained. "Oh no,
she's not okay'' Troy thought, trying to squeeze her hand, of corse he couldn't. "Sharpay why don't we go to your
room, and let the Boltons have some time alone with Troy." Barbara Evans suggested. "Okay." Sharpay said
kissing Troy's hand.
"You should be taking it easy Sharpay, not as much movement." Joe Evans said helping his daughter
into her hospital bed. ''Okay." Sharpay said. "Gosh! I can't stand it!" Ryan suddennly burst out. All three other
Evans looked over at him confused. "Its so wierd seeing you like this.." Ryan said. Sharpay laughed, "I hate it!"
she said. "Not to long and you'll be at home." Gina said patting her daughters legs. "But Troy won't!" Sharpay
said with a worried look. "You don't know that, no one does, he may or may not recover at any given moment."
Joe said. Sharpay shook her head, she had never been optimistic though she had been trying to be toward this
situation. She shook her head. "I dont want to talk about it right now." Sharpay said, and quickly changed the
subject, "So.. winter musical auditions are next week, Ry, you trying out?" Sharpay asked. "Well, I wasn't going
to without you, but Gabriella asked me to try out with her, so I'm going to."Ryan said. "Good!" Sharpay said,
''Atleast one of us will be in it." Sharpay said. 'Yeah.. but you better recover by spring musical..!" Ryan said.
Sharpay smiled knowing he really did want to star in the spring musical with her. "I'll do my best!" Sharpay
teased.
It was ten at night and the Boltons and the Evans had finally left. Sharpay felt really bad for the Boltons,
after visiting Troy they came and saw Sharpay, she could tell they had both been crying, and Gina broke down
when she was talking about Troy to Sharpay. Sharpay was on her way to Troy's room, unfortunatly the nurse had
to escort her, cause she didn't want her to strain anything or something. Sharpay sat in her usual chair and
smiled at the sight of Troy. She grabbed his hand and stroked his arm. "Troy, Dr. Barrett came to check up on
me today." She said. "What happened, whats wrong?" Troy thought. "But thats not what I came to tell you, I
came to tell you something that I did, but first I'll tell you what the doctor said, I have a hemmorage, luckily a
minor one, I have to take like three new medications, there doping me up!" She joked. "I'm going to be fine.''
Sharpay said, "I'm just worried about you, Your mom talked to me today, she said the doctot said that your heart
rate is slowing, and that your condition isn't getting any better." Sharpay said kissing his hand, "But you'll pull
through, I know you will." Sharpay said letting tears silently fall, she didn't want him to know she was crying.
"Sharpay I'm going to make it out of this, for us, we can finally be together, we'll go on a real date, You'll kiss
me, and I'll be able to kiss back. Don't listen to the doctor, he dosn't know." Troy said in his head. "Troy, earlier
today when I was in here, and I left and said I had to do something, i had suddenly remembered the man that did
this to us." She said, and then explained how she had stolen the file and snuck into his room. "He didn't even
care Troy, he didn't care that he had hurt you so bad!" Sharpay said, her voice know making it evident to him
that she was crying. "Please don't cry Sharpay'' Troy wanted to say, wishing he could hug her and wipe off her
tears. "He's a sick man." Sharpay said, "But thats okay, I know your going to wake up." Sharpay said, then she
stood up. "Dont leave yet Sharpay not yet!" Troy thought. But she wasn't leaving, she skooted his limp body
over, and layed next to him on the bed, making sure she didn't unplug anything. She lay her head on his chest,
the way she had seen people do so many times before, "Taylor called today, tomarow her and Chad and Kelsi
and Jason and Ry, are all coming up to see us." Sharpay said. "I want to wake up so bad." Troy thought, he tried
so hard, he thought he felt his eyelids flutter, but he wasn't sure. Then he tried to wiggle his fingers, no luck,
again he tried to open his eyes, again he could not, he was getting so frustrated, and for the fist time he couldn't
scream, or hit a pillow, he just had to let all his frustration sit there, and build up. He tried again, he was sure his
eye lid fluttered a little, but Sharpay would have noticed she would have said something, right? Suddenly he built
up all of his addrenaline, all of his anger, and tried again, nothing, he felt like he was going to cry. Sharpay was
playing with a strand of his hair, when she felt something wet fall on her face, she looked up confused, and saw
that tears were falling from Troy's closed eyes. "Oh my god, whats wrong?, don't cry." Sharpay said wiping his
tears, the way he had done for her so many times. "Oh Sharpay, if you only knew how bad I want to open my
eyes, and let you know I'm listening to every word you say, to let you know how much I want to be with you.. I
just want to see your beautiful face." Troy thought. Sharpay started to cry with him, "Troy I don't know what has
to happen to make you wake up, but when you do, I'm going to be right here waiting." Sharpay said resting her
head on his chest and falling asleap.
