Much Later
I was stuck.
Which colour?
Pink, red, blue or black.
Hmm….
The outfit I'm wearing now totally goes with the pink.
Pink nail polish it is.
I grinned proudly as I took out the pink nail polish.
Good choice Shar, good choice.
I closed the cabinet's little door and walked out of the bathroom. Walking over to the couch in front of the TV, I sat down and started my nails.
Suddenly, my phone started vibrating beside me.
I pushed the button that turned my screen on and read the text.
It was from Troy.
I smiled.
Hi Shar,
I'm really sorry, but I'm not
feeling well enough to go out
with you tonight. I think I'm
Getting the flu. =(
-Troy
Now I frowned. Poor Troy. I put the nail polish brush down and quickly sent him one back.
Awww =(
Feel better baby.
Love you.=)
Xox
-Shar.
I sighed as I finished painting the rest of my nails.
I heard the door open and close.
Shane was back from wherever he went.
Sharpay:: Hi Shane!
Shane:: Hi Shar.(walks in and throws his jacket at the hook)
Sharpay:: Where'd you go to?
Shane:: Dress rehearsal.
Sharpay:: Oh… So you and your brothers are cool again?
Shane:: Yup.
Sharpay:: Was it fun?
Shane:: Yeah, it always is.(smiles)
Sharpay:: When is your concert?
Shane:: Tomorrow.
Sharpay:: Do you think I could come along?
Shane:: (thinks:: That was easier then I though it would be)(smiles) Yeah, sure.
Sharpay:: Good.(goes back to painting her nails)
Shane:: You looks sad, what's up?
Uhm, how did he just do that?
I have no idea.
Actually, I do have an idea!
Sharpay:: Troy just cancelled. I mean, I know he is sick and everything, but still… I was kind of excited.
Shane:: (Frowns) Oh…
Sharpay:: But maybe you and I could go out for a bit somewhere.
Shane:: Really?
Sharpay:: Yeah, Miley and I do stuff like that all the time. Why can't we?(smiles)
Shane:: Yeah… So what are you in the mood for doing?
Sharpay:: Hmm… Maybe we could just go down to the lounge and grab some coffee?
Shane:: That sounds great.
Sharpay:: (stands up) Let me just go and change.
Shane:: Shar, you look fine.
Sharpay:: Shane, I'm not leaving in sweats.
Shane:: Sharpay. You look beautiful no matter what you're wearing.
I felt my cheeks go all hot… I'm blushing. Great..
I smiled though, as I got up and grabbed my purse.
Sharpay:: Thanks.(smiles)
Shane:: It's just the truth.
Sharpay:: (blushes as she walks out with him)
On The "Date"
Sharpay:: So, how are things?
Shane:: Good. How about you?
Sharpay:: Oh, everything is amazing.(smiles) So how are you and Mitchie?
Shane:: Oh… I broke up with her.
Sharpay:: (raises an eyebrow) Really?
Shane:: MmHm…
He broke up with Mitchie. Shane is no longer with Mitchie. This means he is available….
Bad idea…
But it's Shane. He is so fu*king hot.
Okay, I have to stop thinking like that…
And I'm having an argument with myself…
That's pretty pathetic.
Shane:: Are you okay? You look…confused..
Sharpay:: Yeah, I'm great! Never better!(smiles)
Shane:: Sure Sharpay. We'll stick with that.(smirks)
Sharpay:: (giggles) It's better that way.
Shane:: Of course.
Sharpay:: So uhm, Shane… I'm starting to record this week.
Shane:: Are you excited?
Sharpay:: (gives a small smile) Yeah… I've got some songs ready for the people who signed me. Do you think they'll like them?
Shane:: Yeah…Just… Don't let them change you.
Sharpay:: What do you mean?
Shane:: Shar, the manager of that record label will try to change them into something you're not. They will act like they are your best friends… They'll suggest to change your look, your sound… Soon enough you don't even know who you are anymore…. Don't give in.
Sharpay:: I won't.
Shane:: Promise?
Sharpay:: Pinky promise.(holds out her pinky, smirking)
Shane:: (chuckles and intertwines their pinkies) This is so professional.
Sharpay:: (lets go) It is.(giggles)
Shane:: Well we are very mature to start with.(smirks)
Sharpay:: (giggles) We should write together sometime.
Shane:: (smiles at the thought) That sounds fun.
Sharpay:: (stays silent for a moment) I'm sorry.
Shane:: What?
Sharpay:: I'm sorry for being an ass, and yelling at you.
Shane:: No. Shar, don't say that. Everything was my fault. No one else's fault, but mine. I was being stupid… So I'm sorry. Really, really, sorr-
Sharpay:: (hugs him)
Shane:: What was that for?
Sharpay:: You're forgiven.(smiles) And I missed talking to you.
Shane:: Yeah.(smiles) Same.
The Next Day
I'm home alone. Yet again. Shane had to go to another rehearsal with his brothers, Miley was studying, and I was left here. Alone.
Ugh, I'm so bored.
I lay down on the couch and sighed.
I closed my eyes and remembered last night.
I had a great time hanging out with Shane.
And it felt great to be talking to him again…
And I really think both of us will be great friends.
And if I wasn't with Troy--
I DID NOT JUST THINK THAT!
No. Never.
I loved Shane, not Tr--
I MEAN, I love Troy, not Shane.
Yeah, that's right.
My name will be Sharpay Grey not--
I mean, Sharpay Bolton.
Yeah…
I couldn't possibly still love Shane. It's not possible.
It's impossible.
I'm over him.
Well, I hope so.
Okay, I need to get this all off my mind.
What am I gonna wear tonight?
Hmmm….
I got up from the couch and walked into my closet.
Let's see…
I could do the whole ripped skinny jeans, with a cute shirt, and some boots…
Or I could do a cute dress…
Hmm… What would Shane li-
I am not thinking that.
Uhm, how about….
I dragged my hand across the long line of clothes hung up on hangers.
I stopped on a particular outfit that caught my eye.
I took it off the hanger and smiled.
This would be perfect.
I would stand out, I would look better then every other girl there.
Of course not for Shane, just for me.
Yeah.
We'll stick with that.
He he…
Suddenly my phone started ringing, making me jump.
I took it out of my pocket and smiled.
Sharpay:: Hey pretty boy.
Shane:: Now, now, Sharpay. That's not very nice…But I am amazing. Aren't I?
Sharpay:: (giggles) Sure. Now what's up?
Shane:: Just wanted to say, I'm excited for you to see us perform.
Sharpay:: Yeah, me too.(smiles)
Shane:: Shar, I gotta go. I'll see you tonight in the crowd?
Sharpay:: (grins) Yeah. See ya.(hangs up)
Later That Night
Miley:: So let me get this strait… You and Shane are now friends…
Sharpay:: Yup.(smiles)
Miley:: Yeah, sure. I'll pretend I believe you, so I can enjoy the show.
Sharpay:: (smiles)
A Half Hour Later
Nate:: Okay everyone. We've preformed some songs off our newest album… And as most of you know, we are already writing for our new album.
Jason:: And we were wondering if you want to hear some new songs?
Miley and I giggled as the crowd went crazy, getting louder and louder every second.
They're ours bitches. Ours.
I looked to Miley who pointed to the stage, meaning she wanted to go closer. We pushed through the crowds and finally reached the area right in front of the stage.
Nate:: (chuckles to himself as he sees Miley and Sharpay) Well, since you all are being so fantastic, we'll play you some.
And the crowd got louder, and louder… I think I may go deaf.
After a couple songs
He is such a whore.
Seriously.
Is he doing this on purpose?
Because the whole time he was winking at girls, pulling them onstage, he was smirking. No, it wasn't the "I want this girl in bed" smirk, it was the Shane. Yup.
And he still had that stupid smirk plastered on his face while Nate was talking.
Nate:: Okay, so we were thinking of slowing things down a little bit.
Jason:: And we have some news!
Nate:: Not only can Shane Grey be a man whore, and make any girl faint, he can play the piano!
Shane:: (glares at Nate before chuckling to himself)
Jason:: And he can write music!
Sharpay&Miley:: (laugh)
And that's why I love those guys.
I watched as Nate, Jason and Shane blocked the mic's, as they spoke quickly.
A piano rose from the center of the stage, and Shane sat down. I had no idea he could play… Knowing him, since he's "Shane Grey", as he would explain it, he could get the best teacher's in all of the country to teach him within a matter of days.
Or, he could've just asked Nate.
But Shane likes to take the more harder, expensive route in life…
Miley nudged me with her elbow and smiled.
Miley:: You're gonna love this song.
Sharpay:: Why?? (raises an eyebrow and looks at her suspiciously)
Miley:: You'll get it.(smirks)
I shook my hear and looked to the stage again.
Shane's smirk had disappeared as he sat down on the piano's black stool. The drums counted off at a slow pace… 1, 2, 3, 4.….
Shane's fingers glided across, hitting every note perfectly. I listened, and watched as he sang.
Falling a thousand feet per second
You still take me by surprise
I just know we can't be over
I can see it in your eyes
Making every kind of silence
Takes a lot to realize
It is worse to finish
Then to start all over and never let it lie
And as long as I can feel you holding on
I won't fall
Even if you said I was wrong
I'm not perfect but I keep trying
'Cause that's what I said I would do from the start
I am not alive if I'm lonely
So please don't leave
Was it something I said
Or was it just my personality
Right then, right there. I knew.
It was about me.
Making every kind of silence
Takes a lot to realize
It is worse to finish
Then to start all over and never let it lye
And as long as I can feel you holding on
I won't fall
Even if you said I was wrong
I'm not perfect but I keep trying
'Cause that's what I said I would do from the start
I am not alive if I'm lonely
So please don't leave
Was it something I said or was it just my personality
When you're caught in a lie
And you got nothing to hide
When you've got nowhere to run
And got nothing inside
It tears right through me
You thought that you knew me
You thought that you knew
I'm not perfect but I keep trying
'Cause that's what I said I would do from the start
I am not alive if I'm lonely
So please don't leave
Was it something I said or was it just my personality
I'm not perfect but I keep trying
'Cause that's what I said I would do from the start
I am not alive if I'm lonely
So please don't leave
Was it something I said or was it just my, just myself
Just myself
I'm not perfect but I keep trying
I looked over to Miley, who's mouth was open. Just staring at the stage. I have a funny feeling this wasn't their plan… If they had one…
Sharpay:: Miley--
Miley:: Sharpay do you--
Sharpay:: Miley. I -
Miley:: You? You what?
Sharpay:: I made a huge mistake.
Miley:: What?
Sharpay:: I'm not-- I…. I love Shane.
Miley:: (smiles)
Sharpay:: But Miley-- I love Troy too…
Miley:: Oh no.
Sharpay:: What do I do?
Miley:: What is your heart telling you?
……
Fu*k you heart.
You have no opinion.
Sharpay:: I don't know…
Miley:: Shar, what are you gonna do?
Sharpay:: I-..Have no idea.
An hour and a half later
I could not enjoy the rest of my night.
Why?
Shane. Troy.
It's all their faults.
Like, Shane had to be so likable, and Troy just had to come and sweep me off my feet didn't he?!
Ugh!
I missed life when I was little.
But even then I was fu*ked up.
I didn't even go to elementary school!
Well, I was home schooled!
I was doing shows on Broadway!
And I was like, really young!
…
I have no idea who I'm gonna pick.
I mean, Shane is… Shane.
I love him.
Way more then you'd think.
But he cheated on me.
And Troy…
I've loved him since I met him.
But he is so jealous!
Hmmm….
Shane or Troy?
Shane… I love Shane.
His smile, his eyes, his hair, his voice… Everything…
He wrote me a song, we sang together, and he is turning into my best friend….
Troy….
He is so sweet, he is soo hot, and always keeps me guessing…
But so does Shane…
He came all the way to Miami for me, and dumped Gabriella.
UGH! GOD!
Miley:: Shar?
Oh but Shane is amazing in bed…
I did not just think that.
Pfft.
Not like Troy would find out..
OKAY! ENOUGH SHARPAY!
And I'm having an argument with myself again…
Miley:: Hey, Shar? You there?
I have to stop talking to myself in my head…
But that would basically be thinking…
What am I supposed to do?
Stop thinking?
That won't work.
Miley:: Yo, Shar. We need to get going backstage.
Ugh. Who does this? Seriously?
Am I the only one in the world who does this?!
Miley:: (grabs Sharpay by the shoulders and shakes her) Sharpay!
Sharpay:: Huh? Yeah?
Miley:: We're going backstage buddy.
Sharpay:: What?! Why!?
Miley:: Because. I wanna see Nate.(smiles) And he invites us.
Sharpay:: (groans) Can't I just go home? I'm tired.
Miley:: No you're not. You just don't want to see Shane.
Sharpay:: (glares)
Miley:: (cracks a smile)
Sharpay:: (giggles)
10 Minutes Later
Miley:: (hugs him) You did great.
Nate:: Yeah, I was pretty amazing.(smirks)
Miley:: Shut up.(giggles)
Sharpay:: (laying on the couch, with her face in a pillow) God, you two are worse then some chic movie.
Miley:: Shar, why don't you just go to someone else's dressing room?
Sharpay:: Because I'm sleeping.
Miley:: No you aren't. You're talking to us.
Sharpay:: (fake snores)
Nate:: (laughs) She's hilarious.
Sharpay:: Thanks!(goes back to fake snoring)
Ugh. Stupid phone. Stop vibrating.
I turned around, so I could see everything around me instead of just the pillow.
I took my phone out and read the text.
I hear you're backstage?
You must feel so exclusive.
=)
-Shane
Miley:: Who is it?
Sharpay:: Do you feel the need to read every text I get?
Nate:: She does that to everyone, Shar.
Sharpay:: (giggles as she texts back)
I do.
I'm bored.
Miley and Nate have been all
" I love you","no I love you more" for 10 minutes now.
I'm visiting your dressing room.
Be prepared.
-Shar
I got up from the couch, and fixed my hair, which was all over the place, thanks to the pillow.
Sharpay:: See you guys later. I'm going to explore other places.
Miley:: Okay…(smiles)
Sharpay:: (leaves and shuts the door behind her)
Okay… I may just die when I see him, but it's all good.
All good…
Yeah, pfft. I'm gonna be fine.
I saw the door for his dressing room and knocked.
Something I learned by staying with Shane was:
Always knock. Then wait for him to open it…
Or you will get a huge mess…
Shane:: (opens the door) You must be the whore I payed to come and fu*k me?(smirks)
Sharpay:: (giggles) Very funny.(walks in)
Shane:: Did you enjoy the show?
Sharpay:: yeah, it was killer.(smiles)
Shane:: I was.(smiles proudly)
Sharpay:: I said nothing about you.
Shane:: Sure. That's what you're saying. But inside is a completely different story.
What the fu*k?! How did he know that?!
Sharpay:: Shane, I was not just watching you the whole time.
Shane:: Oh you so were.(smirks)
Sharpay:: How would you know? You were to busy kissing every girl that was near the stage.
Shane:: I saw you glaring at me.
Sharpay:: And I saw you smirking at me.
Shane:: When do I not?
Sharpay:: When you--Actually, come to think of it, almost never.
Shane:: Exactly.
Sharpay:: And why is that?
Shane:: (stops talking) Do we really need to know that, Sharpay?
He can not be thinking about me the way I think about him…
That wouldn't be him..
Oh wait, it would be.
Sharpay:: I do.(smirks, as she crosses her arms, amused)
Shane:: You're very mean.
Sharpay:: Yeah, yeah…
Shane:: I was really just thinking about Miley--(smirks)
Sharpay:: (her eyes widen) You did not.
Shane:: I did.
Sharpay:: Shane, I'm going to kill you.
Shane:: How do you plan on doing this?
Sharpay:: Hmm….(looks around the room)
Hmm….Mirror, lots and lots and lots of hair product….
Food. There was food outside the room in the hallway…
Sharpay:: Shane, walk with me.
Shane:: (worried) Why?(takes a step back)
Sharpay:: (giggles) C'mon.(takes his hand and leads him out to the hallway where the food was)
Shane:: Sharpay why the h--
Sharpay:: (smirks)
Shane:: (his eyes widen) You wouldn't.
Sharpay:: I would.(smirks)
Dessert sounds good.
I grabbed a handful of cake and threw it at Shane's face.
I laughed at him…
And laughed as his glare, turned into the same look I had.
His hand reached down to the same cake I had stuck my hand in.
I stopped laughing.
Shane:: (throws the cake in her face) HA HA!
Sharpay:: Oh, so now we're playing like this?(throws more food at him as she runs for cover at one side of the table)
Shane:: (runs for cover as well on another side of the long table)(throws more food at her)
Sharpay:: (screams, but laughs afterwards) OH BRING IT!(sticks her hand up onto the table, and grabs a handful of pie, and throws it at him)
Shane:: OH MY GOD!
Sharpay:: Drama queen much!(giggles, as she takes more food and launches it Shane's way)
Miley:: (opens the dressing room door) What th--(sees food flying her way and crouches down out of the way)
I watched as the food went flying not into Miley's face, but Nate's…
Miley stood up, looked back and started laughing.
Nate looked at Shane and I, very annoyed.
Shane looked at me, and I looked at him, and we both started laughing.
Suddenly, Nate ran to the table, picking up two bowls of caramel…
Fu*k.
Nate:: Very mature guys.
Before I knew what happened, both Shane and I had caramel all over our heads, most of the stage crew laughing at us, and a cake covered, smirking Nate in front of us.
Shane and I looked at each other once more, and began to laugh loudly with the rest of the people around us.
Sharpay:: I told you I would kill you.
Shane:: I so won that.
Sharpay:: (glares) How about we call a truce?
Shane:: Finee…
Sharpay:: (smiles) We look stupid…
The crew slowly began to dissspear, Nate gave us both a pleased look of satisfaction, and left back to the room with Miley. Then it was just us two, sitting on the floor, covered in desserts, various dinner foods, and caramel.
Shane:: That was fun.(smiles)
Sharpay:: We so need to do this again.
Shane:: (laughs) Except this time, in the cafeteria at school!
Sharpay:: (laughs too) Oh My Gosh! We would get in so much trouble!
Shane:: Who cares?!
(they both laugh for a long period of time)
Sharpay:: (smiles) I should get going…
Shane:: How about I drive you back?
Sharpay:: Seriously?
Shane:: Yeah, I mean it's just food…
Sharpay:: (smiles)
Hours Later
Sharpay:: (sits down on the couch beside Shane) Well, after all the showers, shampoo, and time, I'm finally food-free.
Shane:: Same.
(after some silence)
Shane:: Shar?
Sharpay:: MmHm?(looks up)
Shane:: I'm sorry.
Sharpay:: What? Are you actually saying the word sorry?
Shane:: Yeah… And I mean it too. I've been a total asshole to you, and -- I realize I really should've treated you better then I did… You didn't deserve it. And I was stupid to even think for a second Mitchie was better than you--
Sharpay:: (hugs him tightly) I forgive you.
Shane:: (shocked, but doesn't let go of her) Really?
Sharpay:: Yeah. I mean, no one's perfect…
Shane:: I'm far from that..
Sharpay:: To me, no. You aren't. To me, you are perfect. No joke. I-- I really… I think--
Should I say it?
This could screw things up, or make everything better.
What was the heart saying?
Yes.
Oh my God, it speaks!
Shane:: Allow me… Sharpay, I really love you. I'm not just saying that just because. I mean it. I'm in love with you… And if you think Troy's better I'm fine. As long as you're happy--
Sharpay:: (kisses him)
Shane:: (still shocked, and kisses back)
Sharpay:: (pulls back and hugs him) Shane, what are we going to do?
Shane:: I have no idea…
Sharpay:: Should we just stay friends? Or should we continue…
Shane:: Well, what do you think?
Sharpay:: (groans) I don't know.
Maybe we should just stay friends…
But I don't want to.
I love him.
But at the same time, I love Troy.
Shane&Sharpay:: I think we should just stay friends.
Sharpay:: Good to know we're on the same page…(looks down)
Shane:: (also looks down)
Sharpay:: I wish we could stay together.
Shane:: But Troy…. Troy right?
Sharpay:: (nods)
Shane:: UGH! I hate that guy!
Sharpay:: Shane, I'm just confused.
Shane:: I know, but… Just figure things out… I don't want you to be confused.
Sharpay:: (gives a small smile) Thanks…(tears start to fall)
Shane:: Sharpay, don't cry. I hate seeing you cry.(hugs her)
Sharpay:: (leans her head on his shoulder) Shane, I wish it was easier. But my stupid heart refuses to talk to me. Nate makes it sound so easy.
Shane:: I know, right?
Sharpay:: (smiles through her tears) One more time?
Shane:: One more time.(kisses her lips softly)
Sharpay:: (kisses back)
Shane:: (pulls back) I love you.
Sharpay:: (cries more) Love you too.
Shane:: (hugs her)
Sharpay:: (cries into his chest) This isn't fair.
Shane:: What is? Really? The only one who wins here is Troy. I hate him..
Sharpay:: (lets out a small giggle) Lucky guy.(frowns) Stay here, please?
Shane:: (gives a small smile) Sure.
My eyes grew heavier, and heavier, and before I knew it, I was asleep. I still felt Shane's arms around me, and that was comforting.
I really wish I knew who I loved…
Really.
This wasn't fair.
But again, what is?
That was freaking intenese.=P
