Hey everyone! I'm so thankful to all of you that reviewed. Which reminds me, monica9445 (i hope its right!) i don't really like troyellas. i don't know why, i guess it's cause she's just WAY too nice. plus, troy-sharpay and ryan-gabi coupling makes it a whole lot fairer. like now, everyone gets someone!
anyway, i'm not sure if it's too drama-ish. anyway, review please! they all help! they really do!
"Whoa." Chad, Taylor, and Ryan said in unison. Almost immediately, Jason, Chad, Ryan, Taylor, and Kelsi Whipped out their cell phones and took a picture of the two, sent them to themselves and to Troy and Sharpay. "This is going to be very useful blackmail."
"Ugh! Does she always have to get everything she wants? Even when it's my boyfriend? UGHHHH!" Gabriella said, turning on her heels and walking out, Ryan quickly following her.
"Gabi, wait!" Ryan said.
"What?" Gabi said. Ryan could tell she was about to cry and was about to hug her when she ran into his arms and started crying. "It's, just, no-not, fair. She, al-al-always, gets, wh-what, s-s-she wa-wa-nts and now, who s-s-she wa-wants. Even T-Troy." Gabi wailed.
"It's okay Gabi. You still have me." Ryan said soothingly.
"Yeah, I do, don't I?" She said and smiled. "Thanks Ryan. But the worst thing of all is that I know Troy likes her and she likes him. Plus, Troy and I were about to break up anyway. There's…there's someone else."
"Who?" Ryan asked.
"You." Gabi said.
"No! Dad don't! Please! Don't keep hurting mom!" Sharpay screamed, on the floor. Her dad had first attacked her and when her mom intervened, he went for her instead. Ryan was out helping Mrs. Darbus. Sharpay had left earlier because she had a headache.
"You little slut, just shut up." Her dad said. He had gotten fired from his job earlier and had hit rock bottom, becoming drunk all the time, getting caught with other women, finding out that their mom was filing for divorce.
"No. Don't talk to her like that. She's you're daughter." Her mom said, getting courage and slapping him straight across the face. It must have been a reality slap for him because he fell to the floor crying and apologizing. After that, things were more peaceful but their parents still filing for divorce since it wasn't the first time her dad had done completely idiotic things. Then, another memory popped into her head.
"You know Sharpay, you are a little whore and you are a worthless daughter. You think drama is something you could live off of? Think again." He said and slapped her.
"No. Dad, stop! Please!" Sharpay said and jolted awake. She noticed that Taylor, Chad, Kelsi, and Jason were still in the room watching Troy and Sharpay with intensity, and concern. Sharpay was breathing heavily. "Oh, wow. Umm…what are you guys doing here?" She asked, completely unaware that she was still extremely close to Troy and holding his hand. This caused the four to laugh.
"Um…hey guys. What's up?" Troy asked, finally waking up. "Are we still in the hospital?"
"Yeah. And it seems that the hospital is pretty cozy too." Jason said.
"Why do you say that?" Sharpay asked.
"Oh I don't know, maybe because you guys are about an inch apart at the maximum and are holding on to each other pretty snuggly there." Kelsi said, sending Chad, Jason, and Taylor into a fit of giggles.
Sharpay and Troy still looked confused so they looked at each other, their noses almost touching and then looked at their hands. Embarrassed, they separated pretty quickly and turned redder than tomatoes.
"Oh, darn it. I wanted to be her when they woke up." Ryan said, coming in with Gabi.
"Darn it? Ryan, no one says 'darn it' anymore." Taylor said.
"Oh well. At least I got a picture." Ryan said and shot Sharpay a 'ha-ha' look.
"Yeah. Me too."
"Me three."
"Me four."
"Me five."
"And you guys can send them to me!" Gabi said, causing them to laugh again.
"You got a picture? Of what?" Sharpay said in an 'it-better-not-be-what-I-think-it-is' tone.
"Oh, just a very cute picture of the drama club co-captain and the basketball captain sitting very cozily on a big couch." Chad said.
"Excellent." Troy and Sharpay said under their breath.
"Mom. You're alive." Troy said.
"Wow, that play really changed you, didn't it? Of course I'm alive. It was just experimental surgery. I'm going to be fine and out of here tonight. But, I did just get a cute picture of you and Sharpay. Seems like not too much worrying went on." Mrs. Bolton said, causing Sharpay and Troy to go red again.
"Ryan, I'm going to kill you." Sharpay said with a smile on her face.
"Umm…I didn't send it Shar." Ryan said.
"Chad, you're dead." Troy said.
"Dude, your mom is here. I don't think she wants her son's best friend murdered in front of her." Chad said.
"Don't worry Troy. I didn't send it to anyone. Just to you and Sharpay so you could see it." Mrs. Bolton said.
"Okay, well Melissa, you can go home now, your test results came back, you are in perfect health. But be careful, got it?" Dr. Cable said.
"Got it, Kurt. Bye." She said.
"Bye." He said and left.
"Okay, well, Troy. I'm fine. Sharpay and Ryan's mother is picking me up in an hour so I'll see you at home. Bye." She said and ushered them all out of the door.
"Hey Troy, can I talk to you?" Gabi asked.
"Yeah, sure." Troy said, nervous of what was going to happen next. I can't believe I am going to be forced to choose. Sharpay, the girl I've know all my life and have liked since 6th grade, or Gabi, the girl I just met and have loved for a couple months? But being with Sharpay was so natural we didn't even notice until they pointed it out. With Gabi, I don't know. It feels…
"Troy, seeing you with Sharpay there was kind of a jolt into reality and out of that fairytale world that you and I are convincing ourselves we live in. we are trying to make ourselves believe that we still love each other when it's obvious that you like Sharpay and I like Ryan. I guess we can't make it work anymore." Gabi said. She sounded so sure that Troy knew it was true. He had been trying to tell himself that he didn't love Sharpay and that he loved Gabi and it hadn't been working. Plus, he had noticed that Gabi and Ryan had spent more time together and they were always staring at each other. It was obviously time.
"I guess. But, still friends?" Troy asked.
"Best friends forever." Gabi giggled and they hugged.
"So, Gabi, I was wondering if maybe-I mean, you don't have to it's just a question, and you don't have to say yes although it would be awesome if you did-but would you like to, I dunno, maybe go out sometime?" Ryan asked as he dropped off Gabi.
"Of course Ryan. I would love to." She said and smiled. Ryan smiled about a mile wide and for a moment she thought they were both about to jump for joy. "Good night Ryan, sweet dreams."
"'Night Gabi. Sweet dreams." He said. Then, she did the most unexpected thing. She went to the door but turned back around and kissed Ryan. She pulled back and they both smiled. He hugged her, gave her a quick peck and they both went on their ways.
"So, Sharpay, I was wondering if maybe-I mean, you don't have to it's just a question, and you don't have to say yes although it would be awesome if you did-but would you like to, I dunno, maybe go out sometime?" Troy asked as he stopped at Sharpay's door. They had just taken a walk together and he had been thinking about it the entire time.
"I would love to Troy." She replied and they both smiled as if any moment they were about to burst from so much joy. "Good night Troy, sweet dreams."
"Good night Shar. Sweet dreams to you too." He said. Sharpay had felt a drop of rain on her head and looked up, it had started to rain. She noticed Ryan running down the sidewalk so she walked inside and grabbed and umbrella. "Come on, I'll walk you home. Ryan! I'm walking with Troy!"
"Kay! See you later!" He said, running past them and into the house as the downpour started.
"Thanks, Shar, but you don't have to." Troy said.
"I don't mind. I like the rain. It's peaceful. Plus, you don't live far. You live, like, two houses down so I won't die." She said and they both laughed.
"Thanks." Troy said and they walked to his house, quietly, hand-in-hand.
When they reached his house, they kissed good bye and Troy walked inside. They both began jumping as soon as they were out of each other's sight.
So I guess it wasn't too drama-ish. But I like it. And this isn't the end. So yeah.
