If Everyone Cared

Chapter 11: The Secret

Troy and Sharpay walked into school, hand in hand suddenly not caring what people thought of them. No one can separate them for anything. The school was pretty surprised has they walked down the hall, smiling at each other. They never expected that the Basketball King and Ice Queen would ever get together, but it's what they always say; every queen needs her king.

As they walked past the Drama bulletin board they saw a ton of students staring at it, pointing their fingers at it. With their suspicions getting the better of them, they pulled themselves through the crowd to see…

Chad POV.

I couldn't believe that Troy ran to that little bitch. She was obliviously acting to impress him. She thinks that she can control Troy and that'll ruin our chances at the Championships. There is no way I'm gonna let that happen. I know there is some flaw she has, but what. Maybe I should figure this out on my way home.

"Hey Chad," Devon's voice snapped me out of my thoughts. He just got back from his honeymoon yesterday and I'm so happy about that.

"Hey D what's that in your hand?" I asked pointing to the white envelope he was holding. He glanced down at it and smiled. He tossed it to me as I opened the flap.

"It's the pictures I took at the club during my Bachelor Party," he explained as I looked through them. Man these were awesome. The quality was amazing.

"Thanks man," I said to him as he replied with a no problem. We said goodbye and I looked through them a little more as that nights events started coming back to me.

I stuck them back in the envelope and laid back in my bed still thinking of a way to get back at Sharpay. That's when it hit me!

End of Flashback (and POV.)

They stood in front of a large blow-up picture of Sharpay on a pole with the phrase "One of the Ice Queens Many Talents". Sharpay couldn't believe what she was looking at. Yes it was her, but who could have done this? She looked up at Troy as he stared up at the picture.

Feeling her eyes burning on him, he looked down and saw her glaring at him. She shook her head and pulled through the crowd, to get out of the way.

"Sharpay," he said pulling himself out of the crowd that was growing by the second. He ran up to her, grabbing her arm causing her to slap him across the face. "How could you! I trusted you!" She yelled in his face running down the hall.

Who the hell could have done it? He thought. There was only one person he knew that had pictures of her…Chad.

She ran and ran until she couldn't anymore out of the building, got in her car and drove to the hospital to see Ryan. He was still in for observation, than he could go home. She parked in the visitors section again, walked through the sliding doors and walked towards his room. She knocked softly on the door and walked in.

"Shar what are you doing here? Were you crying?" he asked her worried. She sat on the chair next to his bed and began crying into her hands as his hands made their way to her back to sooth her.

"Troy told my secret…he humiliated me. He stuck a blow-up picture of me on a pole on the Drama board," she cried making Ryan feel angry that someone did that. He knew there was no way that it was Troy because he would never do that to her.

"Sharpay do you think it may not be Troy? That someone else could have done it?" Ryan asked her trying to convince her that his friend; her boyfriend didn't sell her out like that.

"He was the only one that knew, well except for Chad…" that suddenly made her voice trail off, realizing how stupid she was. "Fuck!" she yelled, running out of his room.

"Glad I could help!" he yelled from the bed awaiting his check-up.

Troy walked angry into the boy's locker room and walked to his big haired friend; well ex friend. He grabbed on to his jersey and threw him at the lockers.

"How could you do that to her!?!" Troy yelled into Chad's face, gripping on his jersey tightly as anger started to boil inside him.

"She deserved it! She's a bitch and she is ruining our chances at the Championships!" Chad yelled back, making Troy throw him into the lockers again.

"Fuck the Championships! Sharpay is important to me and now she thinks I told her secret when it was you! You know it's taking a lot for me to not kick your ass right now!" He fired back at him, letting his jersey go with force, than walked out of the locker room.

Troy walked down the hall with his mind racing with anger and frustration. He couldn't think clearly; he suddenly heard clicking making him turn around. He saw Sharpay looking down the halls than in front of her, suddenly spotting him. She began running towards him as he walked towards her.

Once they reached each other he pulled her into him and held her close to him as she wrapped her arms around him. "I'm sorry," she mumbled to him, as he rocked them back and forth. "I should have known you wouldn't betray me like that," she told him once they pulled away.

"I know who did though…" he got cut off by her "Chad," making him confused, but he nodded. "I went to see Ryan at the hospital to tell him how you hurt me, but he knew right away it wasn't you. It wasn't until he said that maybe someone else knew and that's when I remembered Chad being there when you helped me," she explained to him so he could understand and he did.

"I love you Sharpay and whatever secret you have, you can tell me and I'll be there for you no matter what," he told her, holding her hand in his causing her to smile warmly at him. "Me too…I love you too Troy," she said pulling herself into him to kiss his lips lightly.
