Another day, another chapter, Enjoy!


Two days had passed since Troy hadn't even talked to Sharpay. He occasionally bumped into Gabby who pulled him into a long-lasting hug and dragged him off to the beach or to go shopping at the local stores. Troy wasn't big on shopping unless it involved those yummy little chocolate-covered macadamia nuts. He had chomped down on two cans of them already and craved more.

Gabriella led Troy to a small shop just off the shore that held clothes, and you guessed it, more macadamia nuts. While she popped in and out of the dressing room, Troy stocked up on nuts for the plane ride home and afterwards. There was a sale for a dollar each and he quickly pulled out a twenty.

He walked around looking at tacky Hawaiian print T-shirts until he tripped into someone on the ground that was picking up a fallen shirt. Cans flew everywhere as Troy crashed to the ground with a thud. He quickly got up and played it cool as he went over to help the girl he had tripped over.

"I'm so sorry, I should have been watching where I was going! Are you okay?" he said as he helped the teen off the floor.

"It's okay…" she said as she got up and brushed the dirt off her pink skirt.

They both looked at each other in amazement. The girl was Sharpay!

"Oh crap!" she said as she raced off to find Ryan so she could get out of there. All she wanted to do was get in some last minute shopping before they took the plane home tomorrow.

"Wait-" Troy said, but he was cut off by Gabriella.

"Troy, does this make me look fat?"

Sharpay noticed who he was with and shortened her quest for Ryan.

"Oh, so now you're with her! I should have guessed!" Sharpay yelled as she was over to Troy and stepped on his foot with her high heel.

Troy cried out in pain as Ryan came running to see what all the commotion was about. He waved hello to Gabriella who was totally clueless as to what was going on.

"Ryan let's go!" Sharpay yelled as she pulled her brother towards the door.

"Oh, by the way Gabriella! You look great in that dress…for a pig! Tootles!" Sharpay said wickedly before she walked through the door.

Ryan quickly popped through the door and mouthed the words "Don't listen to her, you look great!" with a wink before Sharpay yanked him through the doorway.

"RYAN! LET'S GO!" his twin yelled as the walked down the street.

Troy heard Sharpay and Ryan fighting as they walked away.

"BUT SHARPAY! I WANTED TO BUY ANOTHER HAT!"

"YOU HAVE LIKE 50 OF THEM, GET OVER IT!"

The rest of the fight was muffled as Troy massaged, what seemed to be his broken toes. He limped over to the area where he had dropped his 20 macadamia nut cans and tried to pick them up.

"Troy, do I really look that bad in this dress?" Gabriella asked as she looked in the mirror at her reflection.

Troy slapped his forehead in reply and limped out the door with his items.

When he got back to the hotel, Troy's mom took a look at his foot.

"Seems like you have a couple of broken toes…" Mrs. Bolton said as she examined her sons left foot.

"Great…this might jeopardize the way he plays our first couple of games!" Coach Bolton muttered as he paced in front of his son.

"Now dear…" Troy's mother scolded as she put her son's foot down.

Troy shuffled over to the refrigerator that was furnished with the suite and brought out a bag of ice. Within hours he could walk better, but it still hurt to bend his toes.

The next day, the Boltons took the long plane ride home. School was going to start soon and Troy couldn't wait. There was another school "musicale" coming and Troy was once again hoping to get the lead. Less than five minutes after he got home Troy had a call from Chad.

"Hello?" Troy answered, feeling the jetlag coming on.

"Dude! How was Hawaii? Meet any hot girls? Did you get their phone numbers for me? I heard from Taylor that Gabriella was there! Did you guys get back together again?" Chad asked quickly.

"Okay, Hawaii was fun, but there was a lot of drama. I met a couple hot girls, but one caught my eye the most. No, I didn't need her phone number, I already have it. Yes, Gabriella was there. No, we did not get back together. And I'm have major jetlag so I'll call you back tomorrow. Okay? Bye!" Troy said trying to answer all of Chad's questions.

"Wait! Who was she-" Chad started, but Troy had already hung up the phone.


Okay, so I know that once again this was a short chapter, but the next chapter will be the last one. And I promise you that it will be one of my longer ones:) Oh, by the way! Those chocolate-covered macadamia nuts are so yummy! My grandma brought them back from Hawaii once and they were so delicious!
