"Because I love you Sharpay! You are everything to me! Everything I need and could ever want and I want to be with you forever" he was declaring his love for me, something that I have been wishing for a long time and now it was here, right in front of me. I took grasp of his hand and ran; the sweet kissed sun kept us warm as we ran through the wood and into the field that stood behind it. We didn't stop running until we were in the middle and we lay down side by side and hand in hand.
I looked into his crystal blue eyes something that I had missed dearly; words were no longer necessary in our world. My chest was pounding as Troy's soft fingertips ran slowly up and down my forearm; we continued to stare deeply into each other's eyes. He was finally mine and I would be forever his, he matched everything that I had been missing, the key to my long awaited happiness.
His fingertips continued to move further up my arm and up to my neck, shivers ran down my back in delight but his hands didn't stop there. They came to a halt on my cheek bone and stayed there as his face got closer to mine. I could feel his hot breath touching the very tip of my skin while I melted into him. His lips were as sweet as I first imagined. He was creamy and a delight, I adored his touch. Our mouths moved almost simultaneously; exploring one and other, finding the beauty within.
My small hands wondered up his shirt to find exactly what I wanted. I slowly caressed each and every one of Troy's seductive toned muscles. His hands played with my hair and my hips. I stopped for breath and managed to whisper "I love you" he pecked my lips and requited my love "I love you too".
'You Belong With Me' by Taylor Swift filled the silence of the field; I looked up in confusion to find my bedroom ceiling just as I had left it the night before and they 'Troy' I was hugging was my cosy pillow. I turned off the music realising it was my morning wake-up call.
Friday 17th August:
"URGHHHHH!!" This had been the fifth night that I had dreamt of Troy Bolton since I revealed my love for him and that was only 6 days ago. However my chances of meeting Troy again soon were very slight. It was two days into the summer holidays with over 6 weeks left of vacation. My family and I are travelling back (unfortunately) to "home" for a family visit with the grandparents aunties, uncles and cousins, something the Evans/Tuck Family do every year. Ryan and I have about 12 cousins who are younger than us however, my favourite and oldest of the Evans/Tuck family grandchildren; Emma, my childhood best friend. This upcoming week I planned to pour my heart out to her about my Troy.
My thoughts of what to take to my family home were interrupted by the beeping of my phone; it was Gabby.
Hey Shar, hope you have a good holiday! Enjoy urself and forget about Troy, anyways keep an eye on Ryan for me ;-) Love you x Gabby
I'm so thankful to have friends like her and Taylor, we always look out for one and other and they have been so understanding about my feelings for Troy, as I have for them about Ryan and Chad. Of course Gabby is still crushing on my brother (gross!) and Taylor and Chad are still madly in love and happier than ever, well according to Taylor. It was then that Ryan came barging into my room.
"Sharpay! What are you still doing in bed?!?" He was always an early bird – something I could never understand.
"Its 9:30 my most logical answer would be sleeping, what do you want Ryan?" my tone grew angrier with him, he was always the cause of my morning moods.
"Well I just thought you might like to know Troy and Chad are coming over until we leave tonight, and I know there is some stuff going on with you and Troy at the minute so I just thought I would let you know..." Troy, Troy is coming. Suddenly all my feelings were coming together as one and were trying to burst out in the only form they could; in tears.
I wrapped my arms around my legs, sobbing. Ryan was many things and I for one had a big long list but he does have his qualities and one of those is caring. He always looks out for his big sister (by 3 minutes, I'm proud to say) even if he wouldn't always show it, he kept one eyes open for me always. He rushed to my side and wrapped his arms around me securely. This is the reason I'm sure why Gabby was crushing on him.
We sat in silence for a good five minutes, until our mother shouted us down for breakfast. "Go downstairs I'll be down in a few" I said, right now he was my favourite person in the world. Underneath it all, I did love him and times like this make me realise how much I actually do.
"Ok, but what are you going to do about Troy? You can't sit in your room all day..." he headed towards the door.
"I'm not sure but right now I'm going to shower – I stink!" I laughed and turned towards my bathroom "Oh and Ryan..." he darted his head round "Thank you" I smiled.
"I Love you Shar" he pointed to me with wise smile on his face "I love you too Ryan"
I said to Ryan I would be at the most 5 minutes, but I finally arrived in the kitchen to find a house full of half of the wildcats. I was stunned to find them all sat around MY kitchen table and most probably eating MY bacon sandwich. Each wildcat respected one and other and their individual families so it wasn't really abnormal for them all to say "Hey Sharpay, what's up?" I just smiled and replied "Hey Guys" reaching for the orange juice which was just out of my grasp when a loving pair of hands caught the carton instead.
"Oh thank" I turned around to find Troy and my smile faded, my most recent dream flooded my mind. "Because I love you Sharpay! You are everything to me! Everything I need and could ever want and I want to be with you forever" "Er Thank you" I walked to other side of the kitchen dodging the odd wildcat. I looked back once catching Troy's stare; what was he thinking? What was he feeling? What does he really want? Why doesn't he love me? And I broke the gaze.
I finished my sandwich and rushed to my room and headed for the phone.
"Taylor! Ring Gabby and get your butt's over to mine now!!" I was almost hyperventilating but not quite.
"Why?! What's wrong? I thought you were going away today..."
"I am but the wildcat team are over and –"
"Troy... I'll call Gabby and we will be over in 5, bye Shar"
That was the longest 5 minutes of my life, I was pacing my room thinking of what Troy was doing this very second in my house, thinking of him seeing all those embarrassing family photos and then it came to my attention that he had seen them all before and I had nothing to worry about however this did not stop me pacing the room. My heartbeat was in time with my steps and I could not wait any longer for Gabby and Taylor to get here. I trotted downstairs to hoping to go unnoticed past the living room and into the kitchen. I peeked inside the lounge to find the guys playing on the Playstation 3 on Call Of Something addition Something – I know I'm a girl I'm supposed to know everything – but not guy stuff! I scanned the room to find out who was doing what when I saw Troy staring into space but not for too long when he saw me peering round the door. Once again intimidated by his eyes I turned around and headed for the kitchen.
I leaned over the sink drinking my water and staring at the rain. It was summer and it was raining. I watched each individual tear tap against the window and effortlessly glide down the surface of the glass –
"Sharpay..." He made me jump that much that I dropped my glass into the sink and my water went down the wrong way. "Sorry I didn't mean to scare you, I just – I just wanted to um talk, about us and me and you as individuals, not as a couple, our relationship- Uh I mean friendship not that it has been much of one over the past couple of months but uh yeah so um would you like to er... talk?" he let out a nervous laugh his babbling reminded me of something that I would do.
"You see the thing is- I'm going on holiday today, a break from everything and everyone. I don't want anything that you say to put that in jeopardy. The last few times we have talked have hurt me bad Troy and I don't want that to happen again!" I was on the verge of tears and he wasn't looking too pleased either. The awkward silence was filled with Taylor and Gabby laughing and joking.
"... I know he was so funny I can't believe he-" Taylor stopped and looked at me then to Troy. "Oh are we interrupting something? Yeah I think we are umm Gabby? Why don't we go see how Chad and Ryan are?"
"Uh- Yeah" She looked confused, me too "Chad! Ryan!..." and off they went leaving me and Troy in the awkward silence once again.
"I didn't want to hurt you Sharpay, believe me that was the last of my intensions; I just didn't understand why you were being so distant..."
"Well what's done is done, I can't do anything about it and neither can you"
"But I want to, look – don't go tonight, stay for the summer and we can – we can re connect be those two amazing best friends we used to be and just ah have fun"
"It's not as easy as that Troy – listen, I have to go so enjoy your summer, whatever it is that you want to do go for it and I – well I will just do my thing. Goodbye Troy" I walked out of the door kitchen door and closed it. I strut into the living room where Gabby and Ryan were chatting and smiling – it's funny really considering Kelsi hadn't been around too much. Chad had his arm around Taylor and you could tell he had fallen for her just as much as she had fallen for him.
"Oh I do hate to butt in but girls are you ready?"
"Yeah sure – uh Ryan do you want to tell Shapay now?"
"Tell me what?"
"Oh yeah Dad said for you to go to his office, he has something important to tell you" He winked at Gabby, obviously she knew what it was too.
"Right, ok I'll be back in a few seconds then hmmm" I turned around and headed for the study, anxious, nervous and excited all in one. The only bad thing I can remember doing was breaking dad's DVD player but that was like a month ago and I already got yelled at so...
I knocked twice on the double oak door and walked straight in "Hey daddy, Ryan said you wanted to see me?"
He looked up from the papers on the giant desk. "Ah Princess there you are take a seat this is important..." he gestured towards the dark green leather chairs behind me. It felt more like going to see the principle than my own dad.
"Now I know you have been looking forward to this trip this evening for some time, but –"
"What's wrong?!? Who died?" I questioned and he just sat back and laughed.
"Nobody died Princess, it's just your mother and I have been caught up in business at Lava Springs and are unable to take you and Ryan away" Nooooooooooooo, this was supposed to be my recovery holiday! Not that I was going to tell my dad that.
"What?!? Well that's just great, absolutely fabulous" I crossed my arms in frustration and he continued again.
"However, I just might have happened to get you 3 tickets to Hawaii... and a room in one of the best hotels on the island..." my frown had been raised – this was like heaven. I mean I know that my family is rich, heck most people know that but what they don't know is that we never go on fancy holidays or get everything we want. Daddy always says that if we wait to get things we will appreciate them better. Which I have to admit is 100% true and I for one am glad to have been brought up that way.
"W-What?!? Really?!? Wait a minute what's the catch...?" I knew that there would be some kind of deal going on here.
"You see, I know the guy that owns the hotel, in fact he owes me a rather big favour, so I found out that he has basketball facilities at his hotel" Noooooooooooooooo this cannot be happening! "Which means, You, Gabby, Taylor and the wildcat boys are going to Hawaii for 2 relaxing weeks; isn't that nice?" he beamed.
"Yeah it's fabulous" I tried my best to sound delighted about spending 2 weeks on an island with Troy. Oh the joys! "Hang on, how long have we not been going home for?"
He coughed and spoke quickly to hide his answer "OhIdon'tknowaboutamonth?"
"A MONTH?!?"
It was roughly two hours later I reappeared downstairs, only now the majority of east high had moved on into the games room.
"So you know then?" Ryan said
"Uhu... I can't say I'm too pleased but it's a holiday and I could really use one. On the upside Hawaii equals hot guys and my two best friends" I looked over at Taylor and Gabby who were giggling about the holiday which had been rescheduled to tomorrow instead.
"That's the way to go Sharpay!" He smiled and kissed my cheek; he then walked over to gabby and gave her a hug. It looked like things were going to hot up between them two as well. I shall be having words with Ryan tonight about Gabby and her feelings, there is no way I am letting Gabby go through what I am.
Ok, Hawaii bring out my sunshine.
Hope you all liked it, review and let me know what you think.
