OOOH, action chapter. Enjoy!

The yelling outside woke Sharpay up, and she was pretty certain that her name was being shouted, so she decided to investigate. Making her way downstairs, she was surprised to find Zeke standing between Chad and Troy with his arms outstretched to separate them as they shouted over him.

"How can you talk to someone like that man? I mean I knew you were always rude, and a bit of a dick, but you were never mean and malicious! You were never a complete and utter wanker!" Troy spat this at Chad, with his teeth clenched. Chad made an effort to punch him, but was restrained by Jason,

"I'm the wanker? What about being brothers Troy. This is just like fucking lava springs all over again. BROS BEFORE HOES MAN. I'm meant to be your best friend, and you're choosing that whore over me?" Chad was shouting, but everyone knew he was hurt. His screaming was just a front; Taylor could tell he wanted to cry.

"Yes, you are. You're a complete wanker. Like I said. Brothers, best friend? Don't make me laugh. When I wanted to audition for the musical, you tried to stop it. When I wanted Gabriella you wanted to stop it. When I had a fucking chance to get a scholarship, you acted like I was betraying you, just because I was doing well. You're a joke Chad. You certainly aren't the guy I grew up with. You've changed. Jealousy is a terrible thing-"Troy didn't get a chance to finish his rant, because Chad had punched him in the face, and Jason had let him.

"Yeah I'm jealous. I'm jealous of the fact that you alienated all your friends, I'm jealous of your perfect hair, I'm jealous of your amazing abilities to make anyone you talk to upset. I'm jealous that you walk around like some fucking king, and no one actually likes you. You're the basketball guy, which is all you'll ever be. Without that you would have nothing. No friends, no fans, absolutely nothing. So yeah Troy, I'm ever so jealous." This did it for Troy, who leapt onto Chad, and began hitting him everywhere he could reach. Soon the fight escalated into an all out brawl between the "best friends" who began pummelling each other as hard as they could.

Sharpay couldn't stand to see troy getting hurt just for standing in, so ran in and pulled him off Chad, and dragged him backwards, keeping her arm around his waist whilst he breathed deeply, to stop him attacking Chad again.

"Awwww, look at them. The Drama King and Queen. I hope you're happy with her Troy. You know how she gets. Even her own brother won't wake up from a coma because he's trying to avoid her."

This time it was Sharpay who leapt on Chad, and she fought dirty.

"How dare you say that? HOW FUCKING DARE YOU!! My brother could be BRAINDEAD and you think it's funny? You think it's my fault?! What's wrong with you?!" Sharpay punctuated each word with either a blow, a hair pull, or a nail scratch. Troy stepped in this time, and picked Sharpay up with ease, and pulled her away.

"Again, you gonna take her side?" Chad was on the floor, bleeding from his beatings, and he whispered this through gritted teeth. After he said this there was silence, everyone from the party was staring at the boys.

"There shouldn't be sides Chad. There should be people who need help; you need someone to stick up for them. That's all I did. And if you, any of you think that that is such a bad thing, then I don't want to be on your side, at all." Troy didn't shout this; he said it softly and sadly. Chad was his best friend, had been since kindergarten, and it was gone, it was finished.

"There are sides. And you just chose yours." Chad pulled himself up, and with an arm around zeke, began to limp off. Everyone followed, leaving Troy and Sharpay alone in his yard.

"Troy, I'm so sorry. Their all your friends, you need them. I didn't mean for this to happen." She was unable to look him in the eye, choosing to focus on his hands instead.

"What did you mean to happen Sharpay? After all your years of being a bitch for everyone to forgive you because one bad thing happened? Maybe Chad was right about why Ryan isn't waking up." The moment he said it, the moment he heard her gasp he regretted it. He saw the tears building in her eyes, when he opened his mouth to apologise, she spoke over him.

"Right, ok. If that's how you feel, then I'll just be off. I'll go and get my stuff." She turned on her heel and began running into Troy's house. He could hear her sobs following behind her, and chased her. He grabbed her and held her close to his chest as she cried, yet again.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it. I was just mad and I know I shouldn't have taken it out on you, I'm sorry. Please don't cry please." He was crying too now, he couldn't bear the thought that he had hurt Sharpay this much. "Just punch me, shout at me. Anything. Be Sharpay."

"I can't troy," She was saying it so quietly; he thought he was imagining it. "I can't fight you because you're all I have. And I was thinking the exact same thing. What if he isn't waking up because he hates me that much?" Her tears overcame her, she couldn't continue.

They stood in his garden, both crying. He covered in cuts and scratches, and red spots that her sure to bruise, and her shaking with sobs.

They weren't Sharpay Evans and Troy Bolton anymore.

They were the lost ones.

I think this is a proper DUN DUN DUNNNN moment. But yeah. I wasnt happy writing this chapter, I dont want them to all fall out, but it had to be done for the story.

I'm off to rehearse now, recording a cd tomorrow, grrr. I hate being frigging musical. Should I put in another song for Sharpay?
Let me know what you think, please review!
