Disclaimer: I don't own anything, but Alexa, Christine, Aaron, Amy, and the plot!


"Sharpay, come on. Why haven't you found yourself a guy yet?" Christine, a costar from her new movie, asked her. They were sitting in Sharpay's trailer after a day of filming, Sharpay was done, but Christine still had a couple more scenes to film a little later.

"I just haven't found that special someone yet," Sharpay said.

"You haven't found him, or you keep finding his faults?" Christine asked.

"What do you mean by that?"

"Oh, you know what I mean. There was a guy here earlier today and dropped off these flowers for you," Christine said pointing to some flowers over by her dressing room door.

"When did this happen?"

"While you were out getting your coffee. I thought that you saw them earlier?"

"No, did you find out his name?"

"Ummm, I don't remember, but maybe it's on the card."

"Dear Sharpay,

I know you still probably haven't forgiven me, but I wanted to tell you I'm sorry once again, and I hope that you'll forgive me soon. I really want to make this whole thing up to you.

Love,

Troy"

"Aww, how cute. I wish I had some guy leaving me flowers and writing all these cute love notes. You get all the cute guys," Christine said pouting.

"Trust me, I wish I didn't have half of the guys that are always trying to get me to go out with them," Sharpay said.

"Hey, at least you have guys."

"Like you don't?"

"Weeelllllll, they're not sweet and stuff, they're all cranky and just like me for my looks. You at least are the heroine in this movie instead of the villain like me. Sure, it's a fun role, but people don't expect me to be nice at all."

"You know that I don't even like most of those guys and besides when Troy came, when was the last time I had gone out on a date?" Sharpay asked.

"Okay, so I guess you barely go out on dates with all those cuties you get, but you can't deny that they wouldn't want to go out with you. I swear, you always have so much fan mail and what not, most being from guys, I might add. Plus, Troy is majorly cute, and from what I can tell, sweet," Christine said.

"That's just Troy though. He can be sweet, I guess, but he is also a controlling jerk at times too."

"But, he's a hot jerk at least."

"Whatever, that has nothing to do with it," Sharpay said.

"You know you just want to get in his pants," Christine joked.

"Christine! I'm not even talking to the guy, how could you think that?" Sharpay said appalled.

"You know I'm only kidding Shar, he just wants to get into your pants," Christine said laughing now and having a good time with her joke.

"You know, sometimes, I don't even know why we're friends," Sharpay said shaking her head.

"Oh, you know you love me," Christine said smiling.

"Yes, but for reasons unknown. Besides the point though, Troy and I went to the same high school together. That's one of the only reasons we know each other. That and Amy set us up."

"I wish you'd set me up with an extremely hot guy like him though. I'd love you forever," Christine laughed.

"Whatever. I'm surprised that Troy even talked to me. At school, I was always the Ice Queen or the Ice Bitch because they thought that just because I liked drama, I was a stuck up snob. Can you believe that?"

"Well, now that you mention it…"

"Shut up Christine."

"I know how you feel though. People think I'm a snob just walking down the streets and stuff because I'm an actress."

"I know. People seriously have problems. Actresses aren't stuck up, Prima Donnas are."

"Seriously. When was the last time anyone in this cast sat there and demanded that somebody else got them coffee. We always offer to get each others' coffee," Christine complained.

"We're just totally awesome like that and people just don't understand."

"Yep, but you're pulling me off topic girl. Why is this Troy character a jerk anyways?"

"He's always trying to control my life. I bet you haven't heard yet about how he tried to get me to not go out with Aaron the night of our date. Plus, he was yelling at me two nights before that for some reason I still haven't found out yet. He's got some controlling issues at the moment that he seriously needs to get over. I really like him and all, actually, I love him, but he needs to let me live my own life right now," Sharpay said.

"I see, but you know, at least he cares. It sounds like he's just trying to make sure that you're okay. Most guys wouldn't do that, you know. Troy sounds like his heart is in the right place, but his mouth won't shut," Christine said.

"I don't know still. He's always been like this , and I don't know if I could stand it anymore. Even if he means well, he still does it, and it annoys me to death," Sharpay said.

"But at least he cares for you. I would give anything to have somebody do things like that for me. Especially if he was that hot too," Christine said.

"I don't know about that, but I've going to go now, I want to just go home and lay around in my sweats. I really don't feel like doing much of anything at the moment."

"Okay, I guess you really need to think about this now. I hope you make your decision and I want to be one of the first to know, okay?"

"Sure, I think our talk has given me more to think about. I'd better get going before rush hour starts. I don't want to get stuck in traffic, that would really suck. I'll see you later then?" Sharpay asked.

"Of course. Good luck for now though," Christine said heading back to her own trailer.

"Thanks, I'm going to desperately need it."

"I know you will, but I really need to get on set in a few, so bye," Christine said and left.

Sharpay headed out and went to her car. She wanted to get home as soon as possible. There was a lot of thinking to do and the sooner it was done, the better. Troy was a good guy after all, she was just debating on whether or not she could handle him if he was trying to control her. That was after all, her only problem, right?

When she arrived, she saw somebody sitting outside of her door.

"I don't know who you are, but you'd better get away from my door right now before I call the cops," Sharpay threatened not knowing who it was.

"Shar, it's me," the person said.

"Troy, what are you doing here?" Sharpay asked.

"I want to take you out to, you know, say I'm sorry and if it helps, no movie afterwards this time," Troy said meaning it to be a joke.

Sharpay chuckled a little at this. "I'm not exactly in the mood to go out right now. I was actually going to go inside and just sit around in my sweats and watch a movie," Sharpay said.

"Oh, well then I'll just leave you to that. I'll see you around," Troy said looking a little dejected.

"You could come in and watch the movie with me, there shouldn't be any fight this time, I've already got one in mind," Sharpay said.

"Cool, I'll have to take you up on that offer then," Troy said looking a little bit happier.

"Let me just open the door then. Oh yeah, and dinner is going to just be macaroni and cheese out of the box or something that can be delivered," Sharpay informed him.

"Actually, why don't I go pick up something and you can change or whatever you want to do?" Troy offered.

"That sounds good," Sharpay said smiling. So far so good. He isn't being controlling yet, actually, he's being really sweet right now. I don't know if I could resist him though if he keeps being this nice to me. It's hard enough of a decision right now.

"I'll be back in about 15 minutes then. Any preferences?" Troy asked.

"Not really, just get whatever sounds good and I'll eat it," Sharpay said smiling.

"Kay, I'll be back soon," Troy said walking out the door to go get the food.

Yes! I'm back in with Sharpay. She's kind of forgiven me now, I admit, I'm a little controlling, and I'm going to work on that just for Sharpay. And, not everybody has a beautiful, sweet, and funny girl as their best friend. I'm so lucky to have her, and one of these days, I hope we'll become more than that. I'm dying to tell her but; I don't want her to be weirded out by me. I guess I'll just have to see what happens and if I get a chance, act on it.

"Hey Troy is that you?" Sharpay asked, hearing the front door close.

"Yeah, come down and eat unless you want to eat during the movie."

"It doesn't matter, whatever you want to do is fine," Sharpay said walking down the hallway.

"Let's go ahead and eat while watching the movie," Troy said carrying the food to the living room and putting it down on the coffee table.

"Okay, sounds good to me. Do you mind watching How to Lose a guy in 10 Days? I had already picked that movie out earlier. Before you came over," Sharpay said grabbing the remote and sitting down on the couch next to Troy.

"Not at all, it's your choice, I just mainly wanted to hang out with you tonight. I had originally come over to apologize, I'm glad we're friends again," Troy said with his boyish grin.

"Aww, how could I say no to that face," Sharpay joked pinching his cheeks.

"Hey, watch the face. How else do you think I get my dates," Troy joked, the only date he wanted was with Sharpay, and she was 'just a friend.'

"Sure, you can go ahead and keep thinking that, Bolton," Sharpay said laughing.

"Maybe, but you know you love me," Troy said .

"I'm going to have to think about that one," Sharpay joked back.

"Hey! So let's start this movie and end this making fun of me," Troy said stealing the remote and turning on the movie.

"Whatever, you know you love me making fun of you. That's just the way we work," Sharpay giggled.

"If you say so," Troy rolled his eyes.

They sat there and watched the movie while eating the food Troy had brought back. By the end of the movie, Troy was laying down on the couch with Sharpay snuggled up next to him. Both had their arms around the other and were content with just holding each other.

Troy was the first one to wake in the morning. He was surprised that he was holding something in his arms, but figured it was his pillow until he tried to move it. Opening his eyes, he realized that he wasn't even in his own apartment, but in Sharpay's. He suddenly remembered how they fell asleep watching the movie last night while holding each other. It had been a nice peaceful night, but made him want Sharpay so much more.

"Unh," Sharpay said trying to roll over on the couch but being unsuccessful.

Troy didn't want her to get up. He liked being able to hold her in his arms without the fear of her pushing him away.

He looked over Sharpay to see that it was 6:00 in the morning. Sharpay might have filming today and if she was late, he'd be in big trouble for not waking her up.

"Shar,…Shar,…Sharpay wake up," Troy said shaking her slightly.

"What?" Sharpay said slowly opening her eyes. "Troy, what are you doing here?" Sharpay asked not remembering the previous night. Then, her eyes widened in realization, but just said never mind and asked why he woke her up.

"Do you have filming for your movie today? I wasn't sure, but I didn't want you to blame me if you were late," Troy said hoping she didn't.

"Yeah, but I go in at like 10:30. What time is it now?" She asked not wanting to get up. It was nice to have Troy's arm around her.

"It's only 6:00, you won't be late as long as it doesn't take you 4 and a half hours to get ready," Troy joked.

"Very funny Troy," Sharpay said.

"I know I am, but do you want to go back to sleep in your bed? It's a little crowded here, and I think you're bound to fall off in a second," Troy said hoping she didn't think that he didn't want her around.

"Yeah, that'd probably be the best. Do you want to come lay down with me? I'm not trying to be dirty or anything, I know that my couch isn't all that wide, and my bed is a lot comfier even though it's only for a couple of hours," Sharpay said hoping Troy would accept and wouldn't think she was trying to pull something on him.

"That actually sounds good," Troy said smiling. Yes! Sharpay still wants me around her. She asked me if I wanted to lay with her. That's the perfect excuse to keep my arms around her. She just makes me feel so good, and even though she just woke up, she is still gorgeous.

"Kay," Sharpay said and started to walk towards her room. She was really excited to have Troy right behind her, and he was excited to be behind her.

They didn't realize it, but they were both wearing their own goofy, happy grin.

Sharpay climbed into her bed and set her alarm for 8:00, as Troy followed her into the bed. They immediately fell asleep facing each other, and eventually rolling over till they here close enough to hold each other which they ended up doing.


A/N: I'm soooo sorry that I haven't been able to update, but you've got to give me credit, this chapter got up a little faster than the last like 2. The next two months are going to be hectic for me, but I will try to do as much as I can. I try to write as much as I possibly can, and then post the chapter when I'm satisfied with it. I don't really think this story has too many chapters left to it though. It was my most popular story so far, but it'll probably be the shortest so far. I'm sorry, but that's just where this one is headed.

There most likely won't be a sequel to this one. Due to the way it will be ending (the way I have it planned out in my head), I don't really think that there's much space for another story unless I write about their life together with a family and stuff, but I don't like writing those kinds of things myself. I like reading them, but I don't like writing them.

Well, I hope that you guys read my crazy long author's note, and will understand and won't won't be mad at me for not having another sequel. Please REVIEW, I love to read them!!!

I love you all!!!
