The heart monitoring machine emitted a high pitched beep every 10 seconds assuring the Doctors, Caleb, Charlotte and Sharpay that Ryan's condition was stabilized.
"I can't understand this! Why would Ryan do this to himself! Fair enough he's had a bit of a run-in with some bad luck but couldn't he see any other options" Charlotte ranted storming backwards and forwards up and down the hospital hallway. "Mrs. Evens I understand that you're under allot of stress right now but we would appreciate it if you could keep your voice to a reasonable level, your son is not the only patient here and they need their rest in order to recover" came the voice of a distinguished Doctor that Mr. Evens had had flown in from New York.
"Excuse me! Who do you think you are talking to me like that! Do you know who I am! Incase you didn't know I'm Charlotte Evens and we are currently standing in the Evens wing of the hospital. It has always been a passion of mine to donate a few hundred thousand to this hospital each year and I would hate to have that passion slide by the wayside. Now I suggest you get on with making sure my son is as good as new! good day" with that she turned on her heel and took a seat next to Sharpay crossing her legs with a triumphant look on her face.
'Great she sat next to me… now it looks like I no her' thought Sharpay to herself. She loved her mum, but she wasn't exactly an easy person to get along with. She was Savvy, manipulative, bitchy, controlling, clever, intimidating and seductive. It was this 7 killer combo that would end up having Mr. Evens starting from scratch while she got everything in the divorce.
Caleb exited from Ryan's room, letting out a deep sigh as the doctor that Charlotte had just talked to/threatened made his way over. "Good morning Mr. Evens, I'm Doctor Lucas Row, your sons condition has stabilized physically and he should wake up in the next few hours. But I have to question his mental being, what makes a young man who has everything want to do this to himself" he questioned hoping Caleb could shed some light on why Ryan had done this.
It was Sharpay who responded however "He thought he had lost everything, dad called him just before the party to say that mum and him were getting a divorce and then he caught his boy friend of 2 years hooking up with someone else! It'd be tuff for anyone to handle, he lost two things that he thought were stable… I'm going to get us all some coffee I'll be back soon." With that Sharpay turned and left the hallway, if she remembered correctly Starbucks was across the street from the hospital.
"Right well, even that being the case I recommend that you get him to have some counseling, you could have it done here or he could go to a youth camp in Seattle. It's sort of like a retreat where he would be with other kids who have been in similar situations." Doctor Row informed him.
Hearing this Charlotte stood up making her way over to where the two were having the conversation. "Sorry but I couldn't help over hearing, this treatment your talking about, do you recommend Seattle or here?"
"well in most cases I prefer the patient to go to the youth camp, but seeing what it was that triggered Ryan's will to do what he did, I believe he could carry out the counseling here just as well as there" Doctor Row responded. "Thank you doctor my uh… Ryan's mother and I will talk about it".
"Not a problem, I'll be just up the hall in room 205 when you decide on what would be best. He should be alright to leave the hospital later today if all his tests are clear" He finished, shaking Caleb's hand before leaving the two to discuss Ryan's further treatment.
"Well I don't know about you but, I think we should send him to the youth camp. There he wont have to deal with the divorce and what Brad did to him, and once they say he's all good again he can come back and live with me. By the way do you think that this lipstick suites me, I was going for a single/sexy hot mummy look" Charlotte began showing little concern for her son and more interest in her appearance.
"What! Forget about your stupid appearance for once OUR son almost killed himself. As for the treatment I think he should stay here, the doctor said he would get the same benefit from the counseling if he stayed here and we'd be here to support him through it" Caleb countered.
"Maybe your right, look your all stressed out why don't you take a seat Sharpay should be back soon with some coffee, I'm going to go the bathroom. After that maybe we can sort things out" Charlotte told him using a comforting voice. "Ok, we'll finish this talk in a bit then" Caleb responded allowing himself to be placed in the seat.
With that Charlotte turned on her heal and headed straight to room 205, doctor Row was standing by a counter looking over some paper work. Hearing a soft knock from the door he looked up, his eye's meeting hers. He'd only just met the women and he couldn't stand her.
"Sorry I'm not interrupting anything am I" Charlotte asked using the same voice she had used on her now ex husband. "No I was just looking over some paper work, have you and your husband reached an agreement on Ryan's further treatment?" he asked waiting for her answer. "Ex-husband and yes we've agreed it would be more beneficial for him to go to the youth camp, I can have a bag packed and a flight booked for this afternoon if his tests are clear" Charlotte told him.
"Ok well then I'll make a few calls and have the accommodation arranged for him" Doctor Row replied. "Great well I better go and pack his things, thank you doctor" Charlotte finished heading back out of the room.

Sharpay patiently waited at Starbucks as the coffee was being brewed. 'Man I really need this coffee; I haven't slept in far too long. God I hope he gets better soon! If it weren't for Troy finding him…. Oh shit Troy I should call him and fill him in on everything! He's probably going nuts!'
Whipping out her phone Sharpay began to punch in Troy's number.

Troy sat in his kitchen while his mum was getting ready for work; Troy showed no sign that he acknowledged she was in the room. She had tried to ignore how much it annoyed her that he wouldn't speak to her. All he did was focus on the phone; his stare was so intense that it looked as though he was mentally willing the phone to ring.
"Look Troy, Sharpay promised she would call when Ryan woke up, there is no point just staring at the phone" Julie told him as she placed a cup of coffee as well as a bagel with cream cheese in front of him. Troy let out a long sigh before finale giving up on his silence "I know that mum, it's just I'm worried about him. When he was in my arms his body was so… lifeless. It really shook me, I felt as though I was there but I wasn't… its hard to explain. I don't understand why I couldn't stay at the hospital".
"Oh hunny I know that would have been hard for you to handle, it's never easy seeing someone that you care about or even don't care about in a situation like that. Hearing how you handled it though mad me so proud!" she told him wrapping her arms around his shoulders pulling him into a hug. "Besides only immediate family was allowed to stay at the hospital, and well last time I checked you and Ryan weren't family. As far as I no you and Ryan are just friends" she continued "Mum we're not just friends we're… I don't know what we are but it's not like a friendship" Troy tried to explain.
It was at this moment that the phone rang; Troy immediately pounced on the phone before it could even ring for a second time. "Hello?" Troy spoke into the phone, "Hey Troy its Sharpay, I'm just calling to let you know Ryan's doing way better! The doctor said he may even be released today if all his tests are clear" Sharpay informed him. "Great! That's such a relief! Is he awake yet?" Troy asked allowing allot of the worries he had wash away.
"Well last time I was in the room he wasn't but he should wake up anytime now" Sharpay answered. "Now would be a good time to come to the hospital to, looks like mums leaving. It's probably not a good time to meet her… in fact I don't think there is a good time, but there are better circumstances" she continued
"K well I'll be there soon, see you then" Troy replied hanging up the phone. "Hey mum I" troy began before being cut off "The car keys are on the hall stand and your jacket is hanging up in your wardrobe. Oh and there's a 20 in the glove box you can use that to get Ryan something from the gift shop on the way" his mum informed him answering all the questions he was about to ask.
"Have I ever told you how freaky it is when you do that" Troy told his mum jokingly. "Yes all the time now go and see Ryan, I'm at work till 6 so give me a call there if you need me" she told him grabbing the keys to her Mercedes, as well as her handbag before heading off to work.
Troy headed upstairs, grabbing his jacket and keys before jumping in the car and heading towards the hospital.
