Thanks a lot!! I love your reviews!!

"Where are we going?" Sharpay asked with annoyance in her voice. She hated the fact that she had to do this. Although she was also happy too- she was finally going to go on her date with Troy Bolton that he had promised her when they were 8 years old.

"Hey Troy!" A little Sharpay said to Troy. They were at the school playground at recess.

"Hey Sharry. Want to play tag?" he asked with a goofy grin

"Yeah. I love that game!" Sharpay screeched and smiled brightly

"I know that's why I picked it." Troy said "Not it!"

"Fine I'll be it." Sharpay pouted and Troy took off. She chased after him. After a little while of trying to catch him she stopped. "I can't keep up!" she said and sat down and cried. Troy walked up to her and sat down next to her. He put his arm around her

"It's ok Sharry." he said and hugged her

"No it's not. I'm a freak who can't run fast." she cried

"That's not true."

"Yes it is. Nobody likes me."

"I like you."

"You don't count though. You're my best friend." she said and wiped her eyes

"I do to count. When we get older I promise I'm going to take you out."

"Eww...you mean like a date?" Sharpay said and made a disgusted face

"Yes."

"Promise?" she asked and looked up at him

He smiled too. "I promise."

"Did you hear me?" Troy asked which pulled Sharpay out of her daydream

"Huh?" she asked and he laughed "What Bolton?" she hissed

"I said it's a surprise. What were you thinking about anyways?" he asked as he opened the car door for her

"Oh nothing." she lied and got in the car. He got in the front seat and started the car.

"Why can't you tell me where we're going?" Sharpay asked as she filed her nails. Troy backed out of the parking lot and started driving

"Because I want to surprise you." he answered not taking his eyes off the road

"Yeah right. Like you want to surprise the Ice Princess." she said sarcastically

"Sharpay I know the real you and you aren't like this. Take the act off ok?" he asked which made Sharpay angry

"This isn't an act Troy. This is how I am."

"Not an act eh? You just called me by my first name for the first time in 7 years." he smiled and she thought about it

"Wow I did. I didn't even notice that I did." she said and smiled too

"I haven't seen a smile like that in a long time."

"Well things have changed since then." she said and frowned at everything that has happened between them

"Yeah things have changed. I don't like it either." he said

"Oh please. You're a popular Wildcat with the perfect little girlfriend. I'm just...I don't even know." she sighed and Troy looked over at her

"I know what you are. You are a great person. You are very talented and smart Sharpay. I miss hanging out with you."

"Whatever. I don't believe that." she said and looked out the window. It was so hard for her to look at Troy. Every time she did she wanted to cry. She missed him too even if she didn't want to admit it.

"Well it's true. I want everything to be how it used to be."

"Things were so much easier when we were 8. There were no problems we had to worry about. Nothing." she sighed again and continued to look out the window.

"I know. Close your eyes. I want to surprise you."

"Excuse me?" she asked and folded her arms over her chest

"Close your eyes." he said with a smile

"Fine." she closed her eyes and he got out of the car and ran over to her side. He opened the door and helped her out. "Am I going to be ok?" she joked and he laughed

"Don't worry." he said. He put his mouth to her ear "I wouldn't let anything happen to you." he whispered. Chills went up and down her spine as she felt his breath on her ear

"I trust you." she said and she couldn't believe it. She finally trusted Troy after so many years of not being able to. She liked the sound of it. Troy was shocked by it at first. He then smiled and directed Sharpay where to go as he held her hand.

"Ok two more steps than stop." he said and she obeyed him than stopped.

"Now what?" she asked impatiently

"Now you can open your eyes." he said as he stood beside her. She opened her eyes and looked around in awe. She lost her jaw and Troy smiled

"Oh my god." she said. She smiled as she looked at everything. He took her to the playground from when they were little. He had set up a picnic for her. There were flowers around the blanket. She looked at Troy and he smiled nervously

"I didn't know if this was too much, or if it wasn't enough or what so I just did-" he was cut off by Sharpay bringing her finger up to his mouth.

"It's perfect." she smiled. He sighed feeling relieved. "I love it."

"Well I did promise you a date didn't I?" he asked and she smiled even more as he remembered.

"You remember that?" she said. He took her hand and they walked over to the blanket. He sat down and she smiled at the sight again. He pulled her down next to him

"Of course I do. We were 8 years old and we were playing tag. You were mad because you couldn't catch me." he smiled

"Hey I was 8 ok?! Things have changed since then." she smirked

"Oh like you could catch me now." he said and she lost her jaw

"Oh this sounds like a bet to me!" she said and stood up

"Oh really?" he said and also stood up

"Oh yeah. If I catch you then you have to come shopping with me for a full day." she said with a smile. He rolled his eyes.

"Well if I win then you have to play basketball with me for a day." he said and she put a disgusted look on her face

"Deal." they both said

"Not it!" Troy screamed and started to run away

"I'll give you a head start!" she yelled to him. She took off her heels and her jacket. It wasn't too cold outside. She saw Troy and started running towards him. He stuck his tongue out at her and she giggled. She kept running. His back was to her. She decided to take a leap and see if she would land on him. Sure enough she landed right on his back. He fell over and they rolled a little. Troy was on top of Sharpay now.

"Ouch." she said and rubbed her arm. She looked up and looked at Troy "Are you ok?"

"Yeah I'm fine. I didn't think you could run that fast." he said and looked down at her "You ok?"

"I'm fine. And I can run pretty fast. I don't look like I can."

"How did you learn?" he asked still on top of her

"I volunteer at a day care. I'm constantly running around and picking up little kids. So I have lots of upper body strength." she said and he laughed

"Wow the Ice Princess is strong?" he joked and she rolled her eyes.

"Yes there are things you don't know about me Mr. I-have-a-perfect-life Bolton."

"Well Miss. I-think-I'm-the-best Evans maybe we can talk and catch up you know?" he asked and she giggled at the name for her

"First of all I am the best, and second of all I'd like that a lot." she smiled and he smiled too

"Great ready to eat?" he asked

"Yup!" she said. They sat down for a little longer. "Troy?"

"Huh?"

"I can't eat until you get off me." she said. He looked down and realized he was holding himself up with his arms but was still on her

"Oh yeah right. Sorry." he said and quickly got up- clearly embarrassed. "Need help?" he held his hand down towards her. She gladly took his hand and smiled.

"Thanks." she said and they walked over to the picnic "So what do we have here?" she asked and started to open the basket

"Nothing." he said and slapped her hand away gently. "I mean it's a surprise." he said and she smiled. He opened the basket so she couldn't see what was inside and took out peanut butter sandwiches. He handed one to her. "Just like when we were 8."

"Wow. You went through all of this?" she asked and took it from his hand

"Yeah. Friends?"

"Friends." she smiled again. "Have any thing to drink in there?"

"Oh yeah. Hold on." he dug through the basket "Here." he gave her a juice box

"OMG I haven't had one of these in years." she said and opened it up

"Well enjoy!" he said

"Thanks a lot Troy. I highly underestimated you."

"Thanks a lot." he said sarcastically

"Seriously. You're awesome!"

"So are you." he said

There's the start of some Troypay friendship. It will get more 'lovey dovey' soon!! I'll update the rest of the date probably tomorrow!! Read and Review:)
