Thanks for all the AWESOME reviews!

(A/N: Currently listening to "Full Circle" by Cheyenne, I recommend it. It's an awesome song! Best one on the album!)

Chapter 11

Sharpay was sitting at her computer desk and was reading Summerland fanfictions. (A/N: I am addicted! I recommend, You Are My Refuge and Under Her Window. Those are the best ones. I might write one soon.) She was home alone yet again, Troy, Ryan, Chad, Zeke, and Jason were all out doing some guy's night alone.

Sharpay was about to turn to the next chapter when she heard the door slam, she jumped a little but thought nothing of it. She heard footsteps coming to her door and was expecting Ryan or her mom or something come to the door. But instead it was her dad.

He slammed the door and stared at Sharpay.

Mark hadn't been back since Sharpay was 10 years old. She was now 16 years old. He hadn't been back 6 years.

Sharpay stared at him intently. Ryan didn't like his father ever since he left their mother, him and Sharpay alone but Sharpay still loved him.

"Daddy! Your home!" Sharpay yelled and hugged him.

He shoved her off of him.

"What's wrong?" Sharpay asked sitting on her bed.

"You want me to tell you what's wrong sweety?" her father asked her.

"Yes daddy. You know you can tell me anything." Sharpay said to her father.

"It's that your mother never gave me custody of you and Ryan is what is wrong! Now I'm going to get the car started and you are going to come with me. Don't worry. I will bring you back. I just want to show you something." Sharpay didn't trust her dad so when he left she wrote a note that said: He's back…. –Sharpay and left it on her computer desk, grabbed her coat, and purse and ran downstairs to the car. She was afraid to go but she was more afraid of her mom and dad getting into a huge blow up fight and her dad getting drunk and hitting Ryan like he did before he left.

"Hey Troy, let's go home! Sharpay's home alone and I'm kind of worried about her and don't you want to ask her out on that date?" Ryan told Troy.

"Ummm.. Yah! We better go."

Troy said his goodbyes to Chad, Zeke, and Jason and they left in Ryan's car.

Ryan and Troy pulled into the driveway and walked into the house.

"Sharpay!" Ryan yelled.

"Sharpay, we're home, where are you?" Ryan yelled again.

"Troy's here!" Ryan was expecting his sister to run down the stairs to that statement.

"Let's go check on her, she might be asleep from studying." Troy said.

"Good idea." Ryan said.

They both jolted up the stairs to Sharpay's room and Ryan decided to open slightly and saw that the light was on but her purse was gone.

Ryan told Troy to come on in.

They both scanned the room for some kind of clue.

Ryan scanned around the computer desk and found a note.

He's back…. –Sharpay

"Oh My. God!"

Troy went over to where Ryan was and read the note but didn't get it.

Ryan put the note in his pocket and went downstairs and yelled for Troy to follow.

(A/N: Hmmmm…. What's going to happen? I know, but do you? R&R)
