Sharpay walked about the halls of East High. It had been a week after her brother's death, everyone still blamed her, including herself.
Zeke was trying to help her get through it.
She hadn't eaten since his death, and she was starting to feel the effects of it. She knew it would be pointless to eat now, because of
the fact the funeral was the next day.
Zeke and the rest of the group watched as she slowly walked down the halls.
She stumbled slightly.
"God, she is so pathetic! Look at her!" One kid said.
"I know! She so needs to move past this, it's been a week already!" Another hissed.
Sharpay collapsed to the floor, she couldn't take it anymore. Not the murmurs, not the laughter, none of it.
"The Ice Queen has finally cracked!" A kid cackled.
Laughter erupted in the hall way.
"Shar…" Zeke said softly.
She stood and ran off.
"SHAR!" Zeke called, chasing after her.
She rounded the corner, tears spilling out onto her face.
He grabbed her arm, "Hey Hey…Listen…Don't listen to them…It's not your fault, it never will be…"
She tried to pull away, but she gave up and slowly nodded her head, "Nobody is here for me, though…"
"I am…" He said softly, "I'm here for you…I'll never leave you…"
She closed her eyes and fell against him, crying, hitting his chest lightly to let go.
He didn't.
"He said the same thing!" She sobbed.
"Shhhhh…" He said softly.
"Listen to him Shar…He won't leave you…Neither will I…I'm always here…" Ryan said softly. "I'll even be there tomorrow
with you…" He said again.
The next day the rain fell lightly. The funeral was over and Sharpay stood at Ryan's grave, looking down at it. She tried to bite back
her sobs, but she couldn't. She was shivering from sadness and from the coldness of the rain, but she didn't want to leave him. "Your
promised…" She said lightly and dropped the rose that she clutched so tightly in her hand.
As promised, Ryan was there by her side. "I am still here, though!" Ryan sighed sadly, "I always will be…" He sighed again.
Zeke stood to the side, watching, his heart breaking more and more each time he heard her sob.
She turned away from the grave and ran off.
He was there to grab her and hold her close.
She sobbed into his chest.
"Shhh…" He said soothingly, trying to calm her down.
"Th-Thank you…" She said softly.
"For what?" He asked, looking down at her.
"For everything…For being with me…" She looked down at the floor.
"No problem…" He smiled and kissed her head.
She slowly looked up at him and pecked him lightly on the lips.
He was surprised, but he smiled and gently pecked her back, pulling her closer, "You going to be alright?"
She slowly nodded, "I think so…"
"You sure?" He said softly.
She shrugged, "I'll deal like I have been…"
He nodded again, "Just remember…I'm here for you…"
She nodded her head again and they walked off. She looked back at his grave for one last time before the got to Zeke's car. She got
in and looked away.
He got in and drove off slowly.
She took a deep and shuddering breath and closed her eyes.
He would always be there for her, even in a year.
