Ok, I'm soooo sorry that I haven't updated in awhile! I've been wanting to for awhile now but I've been really busy with my application to run for office (wish me luck!) and countless other things. I plan on updating as much as I can but, this month and next are busy for me. I'll try to update still though. Another thing is that a few people want me to do a sequel, does anybody else think it would be a good idea?

Sharpay woke up in the big room of the tent. She felt something around her. She looked around and found that Troy had slipped his arm around her sometime during the night. Then, she slowly tried to sit up, but it was no use. Everytime she tried to move out of his arm, his grip tightened. She didn't want to wake him, but she also wanted to get up to get some cleaning done. She debated wether or not she should wake him up. Should I wake him up. I really want to go clean up all those bugs that we threw all over Chad yesterday, but Troy looks so peaceful, and he refuses to let me loose. Maybe I should just replace myself with my pillow. Yeah, that'll work. But, he better not snuggle up to that pillow more than he did with me, although, that would be a great blackmailing picture. Ok, on the count of three I'll give him the pillow. One, two, three! Good, it worked. Mkay, now to go take care of those bugs.

When she walked into the other room, she was shocked. She saw bugs everywhere but where Chad had been laying, and even then, there were still a couple of bugs there also. She began to work on cleaning them up and put her bucket by the door. She had picked up most of the bugs and was almost finished when, Troy came in, kicking the bucket over.

"Oh, whoops, sorry," Troy said bending down to help pick up all of the bugs he had kicked over.

"It's okay," she replied moving to help him.

"So, good morning."

"Good morning."

"Why are you up so early? I woke up, and I was hugging the life out of a pillow. It was pretty strange, I don't even know how it got there, since you were sleeping on it last night."

"Oh, well," she blushed. "I woke up and you had your arm around me, and I wanted to get up. You kept on tightening your grip around me, so I had to replace myself with something else, so I gave you my pillow."

"Oh, sorry I didn't do it on purpose, I promise."

"It's alright, to say the truth, I enjoyed it. I almost didn't get up, but I knew somebody had to clean up this mess," she said while standing up.

"Well, in that case, maybe I should hold you more often," he said standing up also, and walking towards her.

"Really? Will I be able to resist Mr. Irresistible Basketball Boy?" she said with sarcasam.

"You said it yourself, Mr. Irresistible," he said wrapping his arms around her.

"Well, we'll have to see about that."

"I don't know, you seem very susceptible to my charm, good looks, and irresistibleness," he said with a grin.

"You are so full of yourself Mr. Ego," she said while laughing.

"Hey, can you guys keep your corniness to a minimum? There are some people trying to make the most of their sleeping time," Chad called.

The two broke out laughing, and bringing the bucket of bugs, and the tape player with them, walked towards Sharpay's car.

"I didn't think that we were that loud," Sharpay said after finally being able to calm herself down.

"I know, and I can't believe that out of everybody, Ryan heard us," he added. A little more serious, he asked,"Do you really think that I'm full of myself?"

"Maybe, but it's something that I like about you. You know how to put your ego aside when you talk to someone, but you can pull it out exactly when you need it."

"Really? I never noticed that about myself, but now that you mention it, I guess I can see what you mean," he said with a big grin on his face. He was glad that his girlfriend didn't think that he was some stuck up, self-obsessed jock that only thought of himself. He held the bugs with his right arm, so he put his left arm around her, she was walking on his left, while he gave her a kiss on her forehead. She just smiled and just put her arm around him.

They threw the bucket and tape player in her car and walked back to the campsite to go get ready and wake the others up. They parted and Troy went to his room to get changed, while Sharpay walked to her and Ryan's room to get changed herself. In 8 minutes, Troy was dressed and ready to wake the others, while Sharpay took another 20 minutes. Troy was waiting when she had finished. He had decided to pack up all of his stuff because he didn't want to wake the others by himself.

"So should we wake them now?" he asked her.

"Yeah, let's just hope that your bestest friend Chad isn't too cranky," she said with a giggle.

They walked in and began to wake the others. Most woke up very well, but Chad was reluctant to get out of his sleeping bag.

"Why don't you guys just give me 10 more minutes? Your positive attitudes are really annoying to wake up to first thing in the morning," he said while covering his head with his sleeping bag.

"Fine then," Troy said to Chad. To Sharpay, he whispered, "Go ahead Shar, give it to him."

"Okay," she whispered back. In her best ice queen voice, she said, "Danforth, get up!" when he did nothing, she yelled, "NOW!" He jumped at that, after his experience with her last night, he didn't want to get on her bad side again.

"I'm up, I'm up," he said looking afraid of her.

Sharpay grinned and feeling bad that she had used her ice queen voice on him, she said, "Sorry, but you needed to get up, and seeing how you were yesterday, we figured that it'd be better this way."

"Yeah, I guess you're right in some twisted logical way," he said knowing she was right.

It took 35 minutes for the others to get dressed, and begin on cleaning up their campsite. Sharpay and Troy had in the mean time, began to clean up all of their food and were done by the time everybody else was ready. Now, the only thing left to do, was to clean up the tent and all that was in it. Pulling the tent down would be easy, but picking up everybody's things wouldn't be quite as easy. After another hour, it was already 9:20 and Sharpay was beginning to rush everybody, she knew that with all of her friends here, she wasn't going to be able to get the tent down and folded up in 10 minutes, like it usually took her and her dad.

After 25 minutes of struggling and arguing, they finally got the tent down and folded up. The gang had finally given up, and let Sharpay and Ryan do it after 20 minutes. They threw their now neatly folded tent with all the other things in the trunk of Ryan's car, and split up to get in the cars and drive home. They split up the same way they had come with Troy, Jason, and Kelsi with Sharpay in Sharpay's car, and Gabriella, Taylor, and Chad in Ryan's car.

When they were in a familiar area, Troy offered to drive the rest of the way home for Sharpay. She greatfully accepted. Troy had talked with her the whole way, but he could tell that she was exhausted, so he figured that he should take a break. They pulled over to the side of the road, while Ryan's car kept going. Once they had switched places, Troy set out on the road again. Sharpay sat down in the passenger seat and fell asleep almost immediately. Jason was oblivious to this having been asleep since they hit the road. Kelsi was reading a magazine that she had brought. Troy looked at Sharpay and smiled, he was finally going out with her and was happy that he had been able to spend his whole weekend with her.

Meanwhile in Ryan's car. . .

Sharpay had just called him to tell him that they were going to pull over so Troy could take over driving for her. He was glad that she and Troy were happy together just like he and Gabi were. She was reading a book right now, and noticed him glancing at her, she smiled at him, and he returned the smile as he turned back to the road. Chad was snoozing in the back, and Taylor was reading a magazine.

They arrived at the Evans's mansion at 12:37. Troy had called Ryan, and together, they decided that they wouldn't stop for lunch and would just have Ryan call home and ask his parents to order pizza for them all, and then they'd all head to their own houses to enjoy the last week of summer vacation "Hey Taylor, can you wake up Cranky back there, we'll be at my house in 2 minutes," Ryan said.

Unlike earlier times, Chad woke up in a good mood upon hearing the words home and pizza.

"Sharpay wake up, we're at your house now," Troy said slightly shaking her.

She woke up and yawned. Kelsi was waking Jason at the same time and he woke up in the same way Sharpay had.

Everybody went into the house after unloading all of their things. Upon entering, they smelt pizza and ran toward the kitchen, saying hi to Mr. and Mrs. Evans along the way. After they all finished eating, there wasn't a single piece of pizza left.

"So, I guess we'll see you guys next week, at the latest?" Sharpay asked when everybody decided they needed to go home.

"Yeah, we should get together like on Tuesday though, I've got to most likely hang with my family tomorrow, but I'll call you anyways," Troy told her.

"Okay, that sounds good to me," she replied back.

"Well, we'll see you later Shar we had so much fun, " Gabi said walking towards the door.

"Bye Gabi, I'm glad you had fun!" The others said their goodbyes and left also.

"That was one of our best trips ever Ry," she told him with a grin.

"Yeah that was, we'll have to invite everybody again sometime soon," he told her also happy.

She went to go shower and just thought about everything that happened on the trip. She was happy taht all fights were resolved and all of the good things that had happened. She couldn't wait for the next time they went camping, this trip had strengthened their friendships more than theyd ever imagined. School was going to be even better now that she had become such friends with the gang.

Okay, this story is complete. If you want a sequel, say so in a review, and please give ideas. I'm not sure what I'd have happen in the sequel. I hope that this ending isn't too disappointing, I'm writing this at 1:00 in the morning. Please give feedback in a review, and if I do a sequel, it may be after February, this month and next month are really busy for me. So, once again, thanx for readng, and I hope you liked this story!
