A/N: Hey! You guys are awesome. Like, really really awesome. It means a lot to me that you guys really like my writing! Thanks so much. Okayy, so this one-shot's pretty much fluff, I think. (My favorite part's the end.)
A/N #2: Just telling you guys that I won't be able to update that often starting now. So Sorry! I just started school (WAY too early, my school's incredibly weird) and I'm in like 4 Honors/AP classes that all give out a crapload (sorry) of homework (I'm a FRESHMAN. They give out so much work. It's insane.) So I'm going to try my hardest to update as fast as I can, but I can't promise anything. Thanks so much for continuing to read my stories! Your guys' support is so great.

Kiss Me"What are you doing here?" Troy asked Sharpay as he watched her walk into the gym and sat down on a bleacher.
"What? I'm not allowed to watch my boyfriend practice?" Sharpay asked innocently. Troy smiled.
"Sure, you are. Want to play?" Troy spun the basketball between his hands. Sharpay gave him a skeptical look. Troy laughed.
"Okay, okay, fine. You don't," He turned to shoot another basket. He walked over to under the hoop to retrieve the basketball, then turned around to see what Sharpay was doing. Troy laughed as he saw the blonde girl hopping from bleacher to bleacher, her skirt fluttering and her heels making a satisfying click each time she jumped atop a metal bleacher.
"What are you doing?" Troy said with a laugh. Sharpay just shrugged.
"Being bored. What does it look like?" Sharpay replied. Troy smiled.
"It looks like you need something better to do," Troy answered. Sharpay stuck her tongue out and smiled.
"What, you have something better for me to do?" Sharpay asked. Troy looked around. He looked up after a while.
"Want to play some basketball with me?" Troy asked for the second time. Sharpay gave him a look, then shrugged and started towards Troy.
"Sure, why not?" Sharpay walked over to Troy, snatched the ball from his hands, and shot. The ball hit the rim and bounced off. Troy laughed, earning himself a look from Sharpay.
"You need practice, Miss Evans," Troy said with a smile. Sharpay gave him a face. "And, you probably need to get out of those heels to actually get a good shot," Troy said, pointing at Sharpay's 3 inch mules. "But you know, it's not your fault you're so short," Troy said, tapping Sharpay's hair, for which he received a slap on the arm for.
"Shut up. You have a better way for me to be taller?" For effect, Sharpay stepped on her tiptoes to look Troy in the eye. Troy took advantage of this and pulled Sharpay in for a kiss, making her squeal out of surprise. When they pulled apart, Sharpay burst out laughing. "Okay, fine. Fine! What do you want me to do?" Sharpay laughed. Troy looked around.
"Want to get on my shoulders?" Troy suggested. Sharpay laughed.
"Why?" She tilted her head to the side.
"So you can be taller, duh," Troy said, mocking Sharpay's expression. Sharpay just hit him again. Troy gave her a happy look.
"Fine. How do I get up there?" Sharpay raised an eyebrow. She screamed as Troy lifted her up and practically flung her body atop one of his shoulders. Her stomach was soon atop Troy's shoulder and her face was adjacent to his back.
"Well, this is lovely. But I'm not really sure if I'm taller or not!" Sharpay exclaimed as her fists began pounding Troy's back.
"Relax, will you? Jeez…" Troy walked himself and Sharpay towards the bleachers and set her down. "Better?" Troy watched as Sharpay straightened her skirt and patted down her hair.
"Much," Sharpay said with a smile. She leaned forward for a kiss, and nearly melted into Troy's body.
"Hey… you're an awesome kisser and all, but people actually come into this gym, and I think they'd be extremely amused if they found us making out on the bleachers," Troy reasoned. Sharpay rolled her eyes and laughed.
"Okay, okay. Now what?" Sharpay asked. Troy looked blank.
"Uhh…" Troy responded. "Get on my shoulders."
Sharpay looked at him weirdly. "How?" She asked uncertainly.
"Good question." Troy squinted in thought, making Sharpay smile. The two soon engaged into a session of extremely weird ideas to get Sharpay onto Troy's shoulders, but all of the plans ended up with the two laughing hysterically.
"This is hopeless," Sharpay said through a fit of giggles. Troy shrugged. He then walked around behind Sharpay, held her by the waist, and lifted her light body into the air and onto his shoulders, making her scream.
"Oh! Who's good?" Troy laughed. Sharpay, on the other hand, was pretty much freaked out.
"What the hell, Troy! I'm wearing a friggin skirt! You looked up my skirt didn't you? YOU PERVERT! Ewww!" Sharpay screamed as Troy found this all very amusing.
"Hey, take a chill pill, will you? And no, I didn't look up your skirt. My hormones aren't that outrageous. Crap, you're insane," Troy replied with a smile.
"Yeah, well, if I'm insane you're insaner," Sharpay hit the top of Troy's head.
"Yeah, yeah, whatever. Could you at least take off your shoes? They're really bugging me," Troy said.
"Aww, I like my shoes. And if I did take them off, then you'd have to deal with my feet," Sharpay said with a laugh.
"I like your feet."
"Ew, you're weird. No normal person likes feet," Sharpay scrunched up her face. Troy laughed.
"Whatever. Here's the basketball," Troy handed Sharpay the ball and walked over towards the hoop. "You're way too light. Go gain some weight," Troy teased as Sharpay sat there.
"Shut up."
The two approached the basket.
"See? Now you're only a couple inches shorter than the hoop," Troy joked, when the basket was exactly facing Sharpay.
"Ha, you're so funny sometimes, Troy. You should have a sitcom," Sharpay said as she flicked Troy's temple.
"Just shoot already, will you?" Troy bounced slightly, making Sharpay scream again.
"Stop doing that!"
"Fine."
Just as Sharpay was about to drop the ball into the hoop, a door opened behind them. Troy and Sharpay turned at the noise.
"Who's in here? Troy? What are you doing in here? And who's on top of you?" Coach Bolton's voice echoed through the empty gym.
"Uh, yeah Dad, it's me. And it's Sharpay up there," Troy pointed up. Sharpay's face immediately reddened, seeing things the way Coach Bolton saw. She was on top of Troy's shoulders in a skirt, and Troy's hands were on her bare legs. It wasn't only some random girl, but it was Sharpay. It didn't help that their parents were best friends.
"Oh, hi Sharpay. You two…uh…lock up, okay?" Coach Bolton said. Sharpay squeezed her eyes shut in embarrassment as Troy quickly mumbled a quick 'Yeah'. Troy's dad soon exited the gym, the doors making a loud slam behind him.
"Crap." Troy mumbled. Sharpay laughed. "What? That scared the hell out of me," Troy said.
"I wish I could've seen your face." Sharpay giggled.
"Yeah, well, yours was probably worse," Troy shot back with a smile.
"Oh, shut up."
"Just shoot the stupid basketball, will you?" Troy flicked Sharpay's leg. Sharpay laughed and dropped the ball into the hoop.
"There. Happy? Now let me down," Sharpay knocked on Troy's head.
"Okay. Hold on to the hoop," Troy informed.
"What?"
"Just hold on."
"What? Why?" Sharpay asked confusedly.
"If you're not gonna do it, then it's your own loss—" Troy said, which freaked Sharpay out. She immediately grabbed onto the hoop.
"What the hell are you doing?" Sharpay yelped. In one swift movement, Troy twisted away from Sharpay's legs, leaving her hanging from the hoop. "OH MY GOD, TROY! HELP ME DOWN! WHAT THE HELL?" Sharpay screamed. Troy grabbed her by the waist and put her down. He immediately felt a pang of guilt when he saw that Sharpay was close to tears. She flung her arms around Troy's neck and sobbed. "Don't…do that," she said softly.
"I'm sorry," Troy said, speechless. His eyes grew wide as Sharpay pulled away from him with a smile, and burst out laughing. "What? What?" Troy asked frantically.
"You should've seen the look on your face," Sharpay said through giggles.
"What? What?" Troy repeated, feeling extremely stupid.
"That is why I'm the best actress you'll ever know, Troy Bolton," Sharpay said between laughs. Troy slowly understood what Sharpay was talking about.
"Not cool! So not cool," Troy said as Sharpay ran off. He was soon chasing her around the gym, her laughing growing. Troy caught up with Sharpay (she was in 3 inch heels), and spun her around. He was caught by surprise as Sharpay turned around and kissed him full on the lips, a kiss he fully returned.
"And that is why I love you," Sharpay said, her eyes twinkling. Troy smiled.
"You know I love you too," Troy said, wrapping his arms around Sharpay.
"Actually, you'll love me more after what I'm about to give you," Sharpay said seductively. Troy raised his eyebrows.
"What? Another kiss? I'm up for it," Troy said as he pulled Sharpay close. Sharpay tilted her head back and laughed her light-hearted laugh.
"No, but close…" Sharpay reached into her skirt pocket and fanned out two tickets.
"What? No way," Troy gaped at the two tickets in Sharpay's hand.
"Yes way. Tickets to the first playoff game for tomorrow," Sharpay replied with a smile.
"But you hate basketball," Troy stated.
"Yeah, but you love it," Sharpay responded. Troy smiled.
"I love you," Troy gave Sharpay a kiss. Sharpay smiled.
"Of course you do," Sharpay leaned in for another kiss.
"I'd love you even if I didn't love you," Troy said. He kissed Sharpay again.
"I know," Sharpay said, not really listening to what Troy was saying. Their kisses grew more passionate, and Sharpay finally pulled away.
"I have to go, but I'll see you tomorrow, 'kay?" Sharpay said hopefully.
"Sounds good. Love you," Troy called out as Sharpay gathered her things and started out the gym.
"Love you too!" Sharpay's voice rang throughout the gym as Troy watched her retreating figure.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The next day, Troy arrived at Sharpay's house and stood on her porch, waiting for her after he rang the doorbell. He waited a moment before Sharpay emerged wearing a denim cutoff skirt and a white t-shirt about 3 sizes too big for her with the name 'Bolton' imprinted on the back. Her hair was pulled back into a ponytail, and she had a light layer of make-up on, just cause. Troy smiled as Sharpay twirled around for him to see.
"Very pretty. And I was wondering where that t-shirt went," Troy looked at Sharpay knowingly. Sharpay laughed.
"Before you say anything, I didn't steal it, you gave it to me," Sharpay defended. Troy laughed.
"Okay, okay. Ready to go?" asked Troy. Sharpay nodded and they headed off towards the car.
The two sat in the full stadium, talking, since they were about half an hour early for the game. Sharpay was leaning into Troy's body, his mouth talking into her ear.
"That line's the free throw line…and the colored box next to that is the key," Troy said, pointing at the court. Sharpay nodded as she sipped her soda. "The arc's the 3-point line, and that's the baseline," Troy pointed again.
"So complicated…" said Sharpay. Troy laughed.
"I guess…" Troy said with a smile.
The game soon started, and both enjoyed it, but enjoyed each other's presence more. Sharpay, not really understanding basketball, still had a good time.
"Shar, why are you screaming?" Troy asked with a smile.
"What, I'm not allowed to scream?" Sharpay asked innocently.
"No, you're allowed to…" Troy smiled. "You have no clue what's going on, do you?"
"Nope."
"Then why are you screaming?"
"Cause I like screaming. It's fun," Sharpay responded. Troy laughed.
"Okay then," they turned back to the game.
It was soon half time, and the two sat around laughing and talking, waiting for the game to start up again. Sharpay pointed at the big-screen in the middle of the stadium.
"Look!" she exclaimed. Troy followed Sharpay's hand to the screen. He smiled. The screen was showing couples of all ages sitting around and enjoying the game. Underneath the picture wrote the words 'Kiss Her'. Sharpay laughed as the camera zoomed in on a girl and boy, both about 7 years old. She smiled as she watched the little boy lean in and give the girl a small kiss on the cheek.
"Wow. Lucky boy. I didn't get my first girlfriend until I was 11," Troy joked. Sharpay hit him on the arm and laughed. Before either of them knew it, the crowd around them was watching them. Troy and Sharpay looked around in confusion.
"Whoa," Sharpay said under her breath. Troy followed her gaze up to the screen, and was taken aback himself. Up on the screen was the two of them, both sitting there with confused faces, the words 'Kiss Her' still written beneath their faces. Troy was surprised as the people around them started talking.
"C'mon dude! Kiss her!" "You guys are such a cute couple!" "How sweet! They're so shy!"
Troy looked over at Sharpay, whose cheeks were pink with shyness, but was still smiling. Troy smiled, just seeing Sharpay smile too. He leaned in slowly, then paused. His eyes locked with Sharpay's. Her smile grew wider, and her eyes were sparkling. Troy leaned in closer, and their lips met softly. They heard the cheers of the others, but they soon tuned out of what was happening in the stadium. All Sharpay could feel was Troy's body heat, his lips against hers, his hand around her waist. They eventually separated, then smiled at each other.
"Thank you," Sharpay said softly, her cheeks still pink.
"For what?" Troy looked at Sharpay with a smile. Sharpay shrugged.
"I don't know. Just…for making me happy," Sharpay responded shyly. Troy smiled, and leaned in for another kiss.
The game soon ended, and Troy and Sharpay walked out hand in hand, with big smiles on their faces. The two just exited the stadium and were now standing outside in the windy darkness, surrounded by people trying to get to their cars and out of the arena.
"Do you want to just stay here until the commotion dies down? It's so crowded," Troy reasoned. Sharpay nodded. He pulled her hand towards a corner near the doorways. A breeze rushed towards them and Troy saw Sharpay shiver.
"Are you cold?" Troy asked with concern. Sharpay smiled.
"I'm okay," Sharpay shrugged. Troy just pulled her closer and held her in his arms. Sharpay smiled up at him.
"So, what'd you think of the game?" Troy looked down at Sharpay in his arms. She just shrugged.
"It was okay, I guess," Sharpay responded simply.
"Just okay?" Troy questioned. Sharpay looked up at him.
"Yeah. It's more fun watching you play," She said with a smile. Troy leaned down and gave her a quick kiss on the lips.
"It's more fun seeing you on the sidelines cheering too," Troy said back. They stood in silence for a while. "So what'd you think of what happened at half-time? It was a little weird, but I thought it was cute. It was a little scary too, seeing our faces up there. But did you hear everyone around us? It was great," Troy said happily. Sharpay raised an eyebrow and smiled. "I've never done anything like that before. It was such a rush. I had fun. This has been so awesome. I hope that you liked it too—" Troy was obviously rambling. Sharpay stopped him.
"Troy?"
"Yeah?" Troy looked down. Sharpay smiled up at him.
"Shut up and kiss me already," Sharpay tilted her head and looked up at him knowingly. Troy laughed.
He leaned in and pulled Sharpay in for a deep kiss. Their mouths opened, letting each other's tongues in. Sharpay's arms found their place on Troy's shoulders and were pulling herself in towards Troy's body. The two separated, their breath mingling.
"Whoa," Troy commented after they pulled apart, making Sharpay giggle. Sharpay moved her arms so they wrapped around Troy's waist. She rested her head against Troy's chest, hearing his steady heartbeat and gentle breathing. Troy began talking again.
"Tonight's been so great. I've had so much fun with you. I can't thank you enough for everything. I totally don't deserve you. But I have you, so that's pretty much all I need. I love you, Shar. Have I told you that already? I probably have, but it's worth saying again," Troy smiled down at Sharpay.
"I love you too…but you really should shut up now," Sharpay said with a smile. Troy gave a small laugh and smiled.
"Aww, why?" Troy questioned. Sharpay smiled.
"Cause I want you to kiss me again," Sharpay said.
"Why do I have to kiss you? Why don't you kiss me?" Troy said childishly. Sharpay smiled.
"Because…" Sharpay tilted her head up and looked at Troy knowingly.
"Because what?" Troy said with a smile, swaying Sharpay slightly. Sharpay lifted her hands, grabbed Troy's head and pulled him down for a long deep kiss. They pulled apart with smiles on their faces.
"That's why," Sharpay replied happily. "Now…" she said with a giggle. Troy raised an eyebrow.
"Now what…?" Troy asked. Sharpay just looked up at him with a smile. "What?" Troy asked again.
"Kiss me," Sharpay said with a smile. Troy's smile grew wider.
"Will do."
