VOTE! Sharpay is trailing by three!
"You okay, man?" Chad pops his head out of the bathroom again. "You've been standing like that for hours." he shakes his head.
Troy finally realizes the pressure that has been placed on his shoulders. He watches the whole team out on the quad, flirting with cheerleaders. They had it easy. They weren't about to experience hell on earth, like Troy. He holds his flat stomach, threatening to throw up again.
"I'm fine." Troy answers mindlessly, thinking back to Candace and Greg and theire weird dating rituals. Troy was finding it difficult to believe that anyone would hurt someone else over a slut like Candace.
"You ready to go back to the quad?" Chad asks, opening the front door. "Troy?"
"Just go without me." Troy tells his friend, pressing his forehead against the glass of the window. Chad silently leaves, worrying about their captain.
Poor Troy. That's all I have to say about my suffering love.
Troy continues to stare out the window, noticing Candace join their group. She whispers something to Chad, and Chad points to the window where Troy is standing at. Candace grins up at Troy and gives him a little wave.
So does Chad. He's determined to win this bet.
"I'm giving you ten seconds to say what you have to say. Then you'd better leave." Troy opens the door a crack to see Candace's smiling face. "And I mean it."
"Hey Troy." she smiles and casually leans against the doorframe. "This weekend, a few of the buses are going into town. We were gonna hit Club Morraco... if you wanted to go. The whole team." she assures him.
"We'll have to get back to you on that." Troy smiles smugly before slamming the door in her face.
"All in favor..." Troy sighs, falling back onto his bed. Who knew keeping yourself cooped up in a dorm room all day could make anyone so tired?
"I." Chad jumps in first. "We are so going to party."
Lots more "I"s came from the Wildcats.
"All who oppose..." Troy positions his hands behind his head. All that could be heard was the sound of a television in the next room.
"What... you don't want to go?" Chad asks, shaking Troy's shoulder, "something's been with you lately, man. What's up?"
"Oh, nothing." Troy lies and laughs weakly.
"It's Greg, ain't it?" Zeke asks from across the room. "He's all talk, no action. You've got nothing to be afraid of, Troy." he shrugs, as if it's no big deal.
"Seriously, man. Just relax. Coach is right there if anything happens." Jason tries to coax him into believing that everything is okay.
But it's not.
Another thing I learn is that when Troy lies awake at night, afraid of what the next day holds, I do too.
Hmmmm... looks like Troy's turning into one hell of a sissy! Pleeeeeeeease read and review and VOTE!
