A/N: Wow, two updates in one day! Thanks to my reviewers, more reviews equal more updates! So please review!

6:50 p.m. Oh no, I am in love with Troy. I just told Landon not to come see me. I made an excuse not to see my boyfriend! I told him I didn't want to get him sick. He didn't expect anything of course, but I still feel guilty. No, wait I can't feel guilty. I didn't do anything yet. I just think I'm in love with Troy because of the shock, yea that's it. Well ok, I feel better now. Wait… NEED CHOCOLATE!

6:51 p.m. There are two men in my life I couldn't live without. One's name is Ben the other is Jerry. Their chocolate ice cream is a cure for all sicknesses. So, now that I'm calm (the ice cream did it), I'll finish the details from the afternoon. So, we finished lunch, and I led him to this little shoe store in Soho. I thought he was gunna die when he saw the cab fare (hehe, but that's what he gets for ruining my shoe!). I told him that since he was paying, he could pick the shoe out. Secretly I prayed he'd pick something not hideous. I was lucky; someone had definitely been coaching him on style. He picked out this strappy espadrille, they were beautiful, heck they ARE beautiful. When that was all said and done, it was ohh about 5:00 p.m. For the next hour we took a carriage ride through Central Park, I know kill me for doing a tourist thing. We talked about everything. We reminisced about school, especially the "Twinkle Town" Musicale, life, and how we never really grew to be friends in school.

"You know Sharpay, you really are great. You've really grown into an amazing woman. All of your pretenses have flown out the window. I think if I had known this new Sharpay existed, we would have been friends back in Albuquerque." He smiled genuinely as he shared this with me.

I giggled, "Well, I guess I just needed time to mature. But honestly, not ALL of my pretenses have flown away. I'm still very superficial when I want to be."

Troy laughed, "Oh trust me, I know. I saw that look of satisfaction when I paid the taxi cab driver." We both laughed and then he put his hand on mine. "Look, would you like to go to dinner with me? I mean if you're not busy or anything."

I honestly couldn't think of when I'd been asked a better question. "Of course, it'd be a delightful birthday dinner with an old friend."

"You didn't tell me it's your birthday! Happy…umm… 23rd?" Troy asked.

"Ah hah, a woman never reveals her age. But because you're so cute I'll tell you my secret. I'm 23" I blushed when I realized what I had said. It of course didn't seem to faze him.

"Well give me your address and we'll meet at 7:30. I'll make it a surprise where we eat" Troy said.

"Well I'm not overly fond of surprises, but alright" I agreed.

We finished out carriage ride, and then I took a Taxi back and was home at 6:30. It was a truly wonderful day.

6:55 p.m. Ugh, I only have 35 minutes to get ready. CRAP!

7:25 p.m. Ok, last minute outfit check. New shoes? Check! Hot baby doll top with plunging neckline? Check! Beautiful new skinny jeans? Check! Ooo I look good! Troy Bolton better eat his heart out.

7:26 p.m. Ooo, forgot good luck sprits of perfume!
