As the Tears Fall

By Christina

Sometimes we wish
We could just forget
That anything happened
That we ever met

Sometimes we hope
Things wouldn't change
That all this would last
And feelings wouldn't rearrange

Sometimes we want
Those people back
Who helped us in times
Where happiness lacked

Sometimes we cry
For these memories to go
To never come back
And be a no show

Sometimes we fear
That the scars will stay
Because deep down we know
They'll never really go away

Sometimes we wish
That this wasn't real
And all these emotions
We didn't have to feel

Sometimes we hope
That it won't hurt so much
Just to have lost
Those few people's touch

Sometimes we fear
That we'll always fall down
That these tears won't stop
And inside we'll always have a frown

Sometimes we want
To move on and lose the regret
Sometimes we cry
For things that we won't ever get

Dear diary,

Sorry about the tears on the page Im just having a lousy day. I don't want to talk about it right now.

Alex

East High Soccer Field

Sharpay, Troy, Zeke, Ryan, Chad, Taylor, Kelsi, and Jake were all sitting on the sidelines. Alex was wearing her soccer uniform and was running towards Troy.

Alex: Hey Troy is mom and dad here yet?

Troy: Not yet probably traffic.

Alex: Ok thanks save a seat for them when they come

Troy: Sure. Good Luck!

Therese comes out wearing her cheerleading uniforms with 5 other girls. They start doing a cheer.

Therese and others: Wildcats everywhere

Wave your hands up in the air

That's the way we do it

Let's get to it

C'mon everyone!

People in the crowd were cheering too.

"Go North High"

"East High Rocks"

"North High Sucks, East High Rocks"

Suddenly the referee blows his whistle and the game begins….

North High has the ball. Alex quickly runs for the ball. She manages to steal the ball and she passes to Maggie. Maggie runs to North High's goal. She sees no way to kick the ball because there are 3 players surrounding her. She sees an open pass and kicks the ball to Alex. Alex kicks the ball strongly and scores a goal.

20 min. later

North High –20

East High-20

Cathy has the ball and goes straight to the goal, kicks the ball but the goalie blocks it. Alex runs towards the goal, kicks the ball and scores a goal.

North High- 20

East High- 22

Maggie: We Won!

The referee goes up to the team and hands Coach Mason a huge trophy with a golden soccer ball on top.

Referee: Now for the Most Valuable Player Award (not sure if there is one in soccer) the winner is Alexis Blolton.

The gang cheers wildly.

"Go Alex"

"Great Game"

"Who's Alex?"

"Is she related to Troy Bolton? He is so hot!"

Alex goes to get her award and sees her friends. She searches the sidelines for her parents but doesn't see them.

Alex: Um…thanks but I couldn't have done it without my team, my parents and especially my friends, and everyone at school who were really supportive.

After her small speech Alex quickly runs up to Troy.

Alex: (excited and happy) Hey Troy! Where are mom and dad?

Troy: (uneasily) Um…they didn't come

Alex: But it was on their calendars. I told them every single day of the week. How could they have forgotten?

Troy: I don't know Alex. But Im sure if we ask them when we get home they'll have a good explanation.

Alex: (miserably) Ok. Where is everyone?

Troy: Everyone's outside waiting for you except for Ryan. Can you go look for him? We'll meet you at the front of the school.

Alex: Sure

Alex searches for Ryan. She sees a glimpse of him and swiftly goes up to him.

Alex: Ryan there you are. Everyone's outside waiti…

Alex suddenly stops because in front of Ryan was Therese and they were kissing (unknown to her Ryan was trying to pull away). A few seconds later Therese stops and pulls away.

Therese: (smirking) Oh hey Alex. Great game by the way.

Alex: (shaking) T…Th…Thanks.

Ryan: (uncomfortably) Yeah great game Alex! Let's go, everyone's probably waiting for us!

Therese: Love the outfit!

Ryan and Alex slowly walks away.

Alex: (disappointedly) So you and Therese?

Ryan: (unsure) Yeah I guess. She seems really nice and seems to like me a lot.

Alex: (sadly) That's great! You guys look cute together.

Ryan: We do? I guess. So what do you think she'll want to do on a date?

Alex: (on the verge of tears) Ryan I can't read her mind. If you want to take her out be yourself Im sure she'll love it.

Ryan: I guess your right. You're a great friend. Come on! (sees the gang and runs up to them)

Alex: (mumbles to herself) Yeah a good friend. That's all I'll ever be (runs to catch up to Ryan).

Sharpay waves her to run faster.

Sharpay: Hey there you are. C'mon where do you want to go and celebrate? Pick anyplace.

Alex: (quietly) I actually want to go home. Im kinda tired from all that running. If that's okay with you. You guys can go without me. Maybe next time.

Troy: I'll go home with you.

Alex: You don't have to…

Troy: (interrupts) We can celebrate anytime. Right guys?

Taylor: Yeah go rest.

Troy: Let's go.

Bolton Residence

Alex: If you need me I'll be at my room (goes up to her room).

Troy: (follows her) Are you okay?

Alex: (opens the door to her room) Im fine Troy. Just tired.

Troy: (goes inside) C'mon…

Alex: (furiously) Fine okay! Today was suppose to be a great day! Mom and Dad will finally see me, and everyone will know me as me not just Troy Bolton's little sister! And for once maybe I could actually get the guy! But mom and dad never came, and everyone didn't care who I was. And apparently Ryan is going out with Therese (she bursts into tears).Everything is falling apart!

Troy: (shocked and confused) Tha…that's no true. Mom and Dad love you.

Alex: (snorted) Look around you Troy! All those trophies on the shelf are all yours. All the tests posted on the fridge are all yours. I'm pretty sure if you countall those pictures on the shelves are mostly your pictures. Im always the second best! It's okay if I'm not the best Troy but I want to be treated as an equal, not just a shadow.

Troy: (quietly) Im sorry that I never saw it.

Alex: (quietly) It's not your fault

Troy: (softly) I love you Alex you know that right.

Alex: (smiles through her tears) Yeah I always did.

Troy hugs Alex. He leave and softly closes the door. Alex lies down her bed, with a pillow over her face so that Troy couldn't hear her crying.
