Sharpay stood there looking at her bleeding wrist. Yes, she did know better then to cut herself, but god, she felt so much better. She

sighed and walked to her bed, laid down and closed her eyes.

Ryan walked home after school, he didn't want to explain to the maids why Sharpay wasn't with him. He sighed, "Shar! Shar, I'm

home!"

"In my room!" Sharpay called down. She sat up, making sure her wrist was hidden from view.

Ryan walked in and sat next to her, "You alright?" he asked. His eyes finding the broken mirror.

"Fine…" she mumbled and laid down.

He sighed. He didn't know how to help his sister. His poor, helpless sister. It was like he was standing there watching her drowning in a

pool, not bothering to help. He slowly walked out, taking one last look at her.

Sharpay never really fell asleep. She laid there wondering if what she had done was right. Of course it wasn't right, but it made her feel

good, so that counted for something, right?

Her parents, when they actually stayed home, said that do whatever makes you feel good, so that's what she was doing, feeling

good…no feeling better. She sighed and looked down at her wrist. Though it was dark, she could still see them, in a way. She ran a

finger down them. She sighed and closed her eyes. She barely fell asleep before Ryan woke her up. She groaned and sat up.

Ryan smiled and walked out to take his shower.

Sharpay sighed. She didn't feel like eating. She didn't feel like showering. She got up and pulled on a long sleeved sweater. She sighed,

pulled on some jeans and brushed her hair, but left it down. She lazily brushed her teeth and walked down the stairs to see a

bewildered Ryan, "What?" she huffed.

"Shar you look……awful…" He said. He didn't realize how hard this had hurt her.

She just shrugged and walked off.

He followed her, sighing.

They both got to school and went to their own lockers.

Sharpay sighed and closed her locker. Then she heard the one thing she didn't need to hear.

"Look….it's the ice queen…" a kid in the hall whispered to a friend.

A kid she knew.

A kid by the name of Zeke.

She slowly turned around and looked at him.

Zeke and a kid she did not know were walking.

"Don't look, she might freeze you.." The kid said.

Ryan walked up and looked at her.

"It's official….everyone thinks I'm an ice queen…" She said and ran off, back to her house. Back to her room. Back to the broken

mirror. She walked to her dresser and pulled out her razor. She sat there slitting and cutting at them. She sat there crying looking at the

bloody mess called her arm. She cried from the pain and numbness coming to arm. She cried because everyone thought she was an ice

queen. She cried because for the first time, she realized, she was actually in love with a guy. She cried because she knew he only saw

her as an ice queen.
