Chapter 10
Still Troy's POV
The rest of the school day seemed to go by pretty fast. I told Gabriella to meet me after class so I could tell her how the plan was going, so I rushed over to her last class of the day. Ryan and her were talking as I walked up.
"Gabriella, hey. Ok so far our plan is working out very nicely. Sharpay said that she was coming to the party," I said walking up to her. Ryan exchanged glances with Gabriella.
"Ok Troy, that's good. Uh, now all you have to do is wait I suppose," Gabriella said smiling.
"Wait a minute, what's going on here?" asked Ryan.
"Don't worry Ry, I'm just helping out Troy, he wants to ask Sharpay out, so I told him what to say to her," Gabriella said to him.
"Oh ok," said Ryan, still looking rather confused with the whole situation.
"Now we'll be able to spend more time together," She said to Ryan kissing him on the cheek.
"Sounds like a good plan to me," Ryan said.
"Uh, well thanks for all your help Gabriella," I said. "So, I'll see you at the party tomorrow?" I asked.
"Yea, we'll be there," Ryan said looking at Ryan and then back at me.
"Ok, see ya later then Gabriella. Bye Ryan," I said turning to walk out of the school. My plan was working perfectly.
Ryan's POV
I watched as Troy walked away, and wondering what had just happened.
"What was that all about?" I asked Gabriella.
"Relax Ry, I told you. He wanted to ask Sharpay out and I was just giving him some pointers is all," Gabriella said.
"Are you sure?" I asked. She looked at me sincerely, and moved a little closer.
"How in the world could I choose Troy over someone as cute as you?" she whispered in my ear.
"I don't know. I guess you know because of the whole Twinkle Towne thing and all..."
"Hey, you listen and you listen good. There is absolutely nothing going on between Troy and me. Ok?" She asked.
"Ok," I said.
"Good, because I want to take you to my house and meet my mom," she said.
"Ok, I guess that's good, let me just call Sharpay and tell her that I'm going to your house ok?" I asked her. She nodded.
"Go ahead," she said. I took out my sidekick 3 and dialed Sharpay's number.
"Hello?" she answered.
"Hey Shar, it's me, I'm going to Gabriella's and I just wanted to tell you to make sure you wouldn't get worried ok?" I asked.
"Yea ok," she said.
"Ok, so tell Mom that I should be back by nine ok?" I asked.
"Ok, I'll tell her. What are you two doing over there anyway? Do I even want to know?" she asked. I laughed into the phone.
"No Shar, it's nothing like that, I'm just meeting her mom is all," I responded.
"Ok, just making sure lover boy," Sharpay said.
"Ok, I'll see you tonight ciao," I said.
"Ciao," said sharpay. I hung up the phone and turned to Gabriella.
"Ready to go?" I asked.
"Yep, I'll drive."
"Sounds good," I said linking my arm with hers.
We arrived at Gabriella's house around 4:30. Gabriella opened the door and we walked in.
"Mom! There's someone I want you to meet!" Gabriella called. Mrs. Montez came out of the kitchen
"Hi sweetie," she said kissing Gabriella on the cheek.
"And who's this?" she asked looking at me. I smiled at her brightly.
"Ryan Evans," I said leaning forward to shake her hand.
"Ah, so you're Ryan," she said shaking my hand. "Pleased to meet you," she said.
"Likewise," I replied.
"So, are you two hungry? Do you want something to eat or drink?" Mrs. Montez asked.
"Sure Mom," said Gabriella.
"Ok, I'll make you two some smoothies," Mrs. Montez said leading Gabriella and I into the kitchen. "Sit down, please," she told us. I pulled out a chair for Gabriella who smiled and sat down.
"You are quite the gentleman aren't you Ryan?" Mrs. Montez asked.
"Uh, yea I guess I am," I said in return as Mrs. Montez put the fruits into the blender.
"So, how is your sister doing Ryan? I heard that she went missing for a day," Mrs. Montez said.
"Um, she's doing good, thanks," I replied.
"Good, good that's nice to hear," Said Mrs. Montez. I nodded in reply. Mrs. Montez brought the smoothies over to the table and set them down in front of us.
"Thanks Mom," Gabriella told her, taking a sip of her smoothie.
"Yea, these are very good Mrs. Montez," I said after taking a sip of mine.
"Well, you two are very welcome," Mrs. Montez, told us.
"Well Gabs, Id' better get going or Sharpay and my parents will be worried," I told Gabriella after finishing my drink.
"Ok, let me walk you out," Gabriella said getting up from the table.
"It was very nice to meet you Ryan, I hope to see you again," Mrs. Montez said shaking my hand once again.
"And you too Mrs. Montez. Oh and thanks so much for the smoothie, it was the best one I've ever tasted," I complemented.
"Thank you Ryan. Bye!" she said as Gabriella walked me out the door.
"Wow, your mother is like a saint!" I whispered to Gabriella as the door closed.
"Well, now you know where I get it from," Gabriella said entwining her fingers with mine as we stopped at my car.
"I guess so," I said inching my lips closer to hers and placing my hands on her hips. She gently pressed her lips against mine, and then quickly pulled away.
"My mom is probably watching us," she whispered in my ear. I laughed quietly.
"Ok, well I'll see you tomorrow sweetheart," I said giving her one last kiss before getting into my car.
"Ok, bye love you," she said.
"I love you too," I said getting into the car. Gabriella waved good-bye as I started the car and drove away.
Gabriella's POV
I watched as my boyfriend drove down the street and pulled into his driveway. I walked back inside the house and discovered my mom standing right there.
"Well, he's a cute one Gabi," she said raising her eyebrows. I blushed.
"Yea he is isn't he?" I asked rhetorically. My mom smiled and walked into the kitchen.
"So what you do you want for dinner Gabi?"
"Um, surprise me," I shouted as I ran up the stairs to do my homework, only I wasn't doing my homework. I took out my journal and started to write in it.
March 13th
Dear Journal,
Well, today was good, except for the fact that Sharpay tried to attack me in the hallway and told me to stay away from Ryan. She is starting to really get on my nerves. I mean, I helped save her life and she gets mad at me what's up with that? I really don't understand why she doesn't want me to be with her brother. Probably because he's all that she has, but don't worry, soon she'll be going out with Troy and she won't bother Ryan and me so much. Well that is if my plan works properly, which it should. Other than that, I took Ryan to meet my mom today that went well he told me that she was a saint. I guess that's good. And Mom said that he was a cute one so she likes him. Anyway I'd better be going now, Mom says dinner is almost ready and I'm supposed to be doing my homework so I'll talk to you soon!
Love,
Gabriella
I closed my journal, put it away and ran down the stairs for dinner.
"Oh, good you finally came I made your favorite," she said pointing to the spaghetti on the table. I laughed silently, remembering how I had dumped that plate of spaghetti on Troy's head the night that we broke up and sat down at the table.
Sharpay's POV
I felt the cold metal dragging a bright red line through my pale cream colored skin and felt a feeling of relief wash through my body as I made another mark with the scissors. All of a sudden, I heard a door close down stairs. I lifted the scissors from my arm quickly and dropped them on the counter in fear. I heard footsteps coming down the hallway and then the sound of the door opening.
"Sharpay, I just wanted to let you know I'm home…" Ryan started as he entered the room. I gasped and tossed the scissors aside and hid my arm behind my back even though I was almost sure that it wouldn't do any good.
"Shar, what are you doing?" Ryan said, his voice quivering. I looked to my feet knowing that lying wasn't going to do any good.
"Sharpay, why are the scissors all bloody?" he asked gesturing toward the metal lying on the white tile floor. I didn't reply once again.
"Sharpay, let me see your arm," Ryan demanded. I looked up innocently trying to find the right words to say.
"Sharpay, let me see your arm," Ryan said a little louder. I shook my head. He walked over and tried to grasp my arm from behind my back. I held it in its place. But he finally pulled it behind my back. He took one look at my arm and his face went pale.
"Sharpay… what did you do?" he gasped. I shook my head feeling warm tears sting my eyes.
"You weren't exactly supposed to find out about that," I stuttered.
"Sharpay why are you doing this to yourself?" Ryan asked, his eyes beginning to water. I shook my head and said nothing.
"Sharpay, you can't keep doing this to yourself," Ryan whispered. "Why are you doing this anyway? Does it like feel good or something?" Ryan asked franticly. I bit my lip to keep from crying, but the tears still stung my eyes. Ryan wiped some tears away from his eyes with his hand.
"What is this about Sharpay?" he asked looking at me sadly.
"It's nothing, don't worry about me," I said.
"Well it sure looks like something to me Sharpay! Those cuts all over your arm sure don't look like nothing to me!" He said grabbing my shoulder. I shook his hand away and frowned.
"You weren't exactly supposed to find out," I mumbled. Ryan looked at me sorrowfully.
"You're better than this Shar, and you know it that's what hurts the most," Ryan said. I nodded.
"I just know that Gabriella is trying to take you away and then you're never going to pay attention to me anymore," I exclaimed.
"So what? That means you come home and start to self-destruct because I have a girlfriend and you can't deal with it? You're better than this and you know it," Ryan said looking at me miserably.
"I just don't like to see you with other girls," I said.
"Well Sharpay, you need to get used to it, because I love Gabriella. And what the hell makes you think that I would never pay attention to you anymore? Let's not forget that I've always been there for you when you had your problems, can't you just accept Gabriella? She's not trying to hurt you in any way, so just try to get along with her please," Ryan pleaded. I felt silent sobs shake my whole body as I sank down to the floor.
"But, I just know that she doesn't love you," I tried to convince him. He sat down next to me.
"Sharpay, listen to me when I say this, I love you and I will never ever just forget about you. You mean the world to me and you know it," Ryan said softly. I nodded.
"You mean the world to me too Ryan, and I just don't want you to get hurt," I cried.
"I'm not going to get hurt, I promise you that, now please try not to be jealous of Gabriella and I, we love each other and I'm really happy. That should make you happy if I'm happy," Ryan said.
"I guess I didn't see it that way," I replied.
"Now, let's talk about this," he said reaching for the scissors.
"You're not going to do this anymore," he said, getting up and dropping the scissors in the sink.
"I just don't even know why I even do this," I said.
"Do what?"
"Stay alive. There's like no point! I would be better off if I was dead," Ryan looked at me in alarm and quickly sat down next to me again.
"Sharpay, don't you ever say that again or even think that. Do you understand me?" he demanded, clutching my arm. I nodded in endorsement.
"Now I have to remove every sharp object from your room, that includes your earrings too," he pointed out. I frowned.
"Go ahead, I don't care," I mumbled.
"Sharpay, I love you and you know that, I can't let you do this to yourself," He said putting his hand on my face. I felt tears well up in my eyes again. Ryan kissed me on the forehead and got up and held out his hand. I gripped his hand firmly, and he pulled me up.
"Ry, do me a favor,"
"What?"
"Just don't tell Mom and Dad about this ok?"
"Ok, Shar I won't" Ryan assured me.
"Now, are you ready to go eat?" He asked me.
"Yea," I said.
"Good, because Mom made spaghetti and meatballs, your favorite," he said. I smiled.
"Yum, sounds good," I said.
"Now give me a smile," he encouraged. I smiled brightly and he smiled back.
"That's my little sister," he said putting his arm over my shoulder.
"Hey, you and I both know that I'm the older one," I argued.
"You just keep on thinking that Shar," Ryan said smiling as we strolled down the stairs to the kitchen.
