A/N: Hey guys! Well, I'm sorry it's been so long! I know I told you that if I got a lot of reviews the next installment would be up really soon, and you guys were GREAT with reviews, so I made this chapter a little longer than what my usual ones have been. Please read and review! Thanks guys :)


A few days passed and soon the whole school knew about the sudden break up of Troy Bolton and Gabriella Montez. The only ones who knew the specific details of why they broke up were just Troy, Gabriella and the Evans twins. Everyone just assumed it was a mutual agreement, and moved on. Troy tried to keep his head up as much as possible, but he always seemed to have a slight sadness in his eyes. Ryan would always try to smile at Troy, to maybe sort of apologize for what he did, but Troy never smiled back. Gabriella also seemed troubled at school, and not only avoided Troy, but Ryan as well. It seemed it really was all over between Troy and Gabriella.

Sharpay slowly began to closer with Troy. They sat together at lunch sometimes, and they would occasionally talk on the phone. Sharpay seemed to get happier and happier with each passing week. Ryan struggled with his feelings for Sharpay, and his brotherly love of wanting her to be happy. Ryan stayed away from Sharpay as much as possible to see if it might help cool things down for him. It worked for a while, until one day after school, Sharpay brought Troy home.

Ryan was sitting in his room working on his math homework, when he heard the door open downstairs. Troy had been giving Sharpay rides home from school the past 2 weeks, so it was normal that Ryan would arrive home before her. But something was different. There was another voice in the house, and Ryan knew instantly that it was Troy Bolton. Ryan slowly crept over to his door, and opened it slightly. He could hear what Sharpay and Troy were saying as they climbed up the stairs to go to Sharpay's room.

"Thanks for driving me home Troy. It's been really fun getting to know you these past few weeks." Sharpay said.

"Yeah, same here Sharpay. I honestly can say, I never thought we would be as close as we are. But I'm glad." Troy said.

They reached Sharpay's room, and they went in. Sharpay closed the door behind her. Ryan had to find out where this was going, so he crawled over to his sister's closed door, and listened intently to the conversation. It was a little muffled, but Ryan could make out what they were saying.

"Troy, I'm really sorry about everything that happened with you and Gabriella." Sharpay said softly.

"Yeah, it's been hard. I thought Gabriella was the one right girl for me, but things change. The only good thing that came out of this was you, Sharpay. I appreciate everything you have done for me. You've been there the whole time this has happened." Troy replied.

"It's nothing. I wanted to help you out. And I know that Ryan never wanted this to happen either." Sharpay said.

"Yeah, I don't want to dislike Ryan, but it's hard. I don't know why he did what he did. I mean, I don't want to be mad at him, since you guys are siblings, but it's hard. I just feel betrayed." Troy spoke.

"Ryan would never do it intentionally, Troy. He isn't like that. There is not one cruel bone in his body. He wouldn't have done it unless there was a good reason, like he was being forced to." Sharpay said slowly.

"But who would force him to do that?"

Sharpay laughed nervously. "Um, probably Gabriella. I mean, she never seemed that trustworthy to me. No offense to her or you, but she didn't seem all that innocent to me."

"Well, I guess you were right. And if you say Ryan didn't really mean it..."

"He didn't. Ryan would never hurt anyone." Sharpay interrupted.

"Well okay then. Ryan's cool with me again. But hey, I better get going. Thanks for talking with me Sharpay." Troy said, as the bed creaked, signaling to Ryan that Troy was getting up.

Ryan quickly moved to hide in his room. He heard Sharpay's door open, and the two of them walk slowly down the stairs. Ryan crept out of his room, and went to the edge of the stairs to watch them. Troy and Sharpay were embracing, and then Troy started to whisper in Sharpay's ear. Her face lit up, and she beamed from ear to ear. She slowly pulled away from the embrace to look at Troy. She nodded to Troy, and they both embraced again. Troy swung her around as she laughed loudly. Ryan felt a twinge of jealousy, and then walked to his room. He sat down on his bed, and started to work on his homework again.

"RYAN!" Sharpay yelled. He could hear her dashing up the stairs. She burst into his room.

"Ryan! Guess what?" Sharpay practically screamed, with that huge smile still on her face. She didn't wait for Ryan to respond.

"Troy asked me to be his girlfriend!" Sharpay started to jump around in pure joy.

"Wow. Congratulations." Ryan said as unenthusiastically as he could.

Sharpay stopped jumping and plopped down on Ryan's bed. Her grin still not leaving her face, oblivious to Ryan's lack of enthusiasm.

"Isn't it wonderful? It's finally come true! Troy Bolton is finally mine! We made it happen Ryan! We did it! And I almost forgot, Troy is cool with you again! We can all hang out and be friends again!" Sharpay said.

Ryan just looked at her.

"Ryan, isn't this great? Aren't you happy for me?" Sharpay asked.

Ryan wanted to yell at her and tell her how it wasn't great. How Troy was probably using her to get over Gabriella. How it wouldn't be the same without Gabriella in their group of friend. How he loved her, and how she be with him, and not Troy.

"Yeah, Shar. It's great." Ryan said, forcing a fake smile onto his lips.

"Thank you, Ryan. This is only possible because of you." Sharpay moved closer to Ryan and hugged him tight. Ryan dropped his homework, and grabbed onto Sharpay. The twins held each other for a while. Sharpay kept whispering her thanks to him, but Ryan was only concerned about how he felt so at bliss with his beautiful twin in his arms.

"I'd do anything for you." Ryan whispered. "I love you, Sharpay."

"I love you too, Ryan." Sharpay whispered back.

And without thinking about how it happened, Ryan suddenly realized that his lips were pressed against his sister's in a passionate embrace.

Ryan stopped kissing her, and jerked away. He looked at her almost in horror at what he had just done. Sharpay simply smiled at Ryan, almost as if it didn't register that she was just passionately kissing her brother. Ryan had to wonder, what it him that initiated the kiss, or was it Sharpay? He needed to know what this was.

"Sharpay...were we just...um, k-kissing?" Ryan mumbled.

"Yeah. Something wrong with a sister giving an innocent kiss to her brother for thanking him?" Sharpay asked nonchalantly.

Ryan raised his eyebrows. "N-no. But I-"

"Honestly Ryan, it's not like it was anything sexual. We're siblings. We're family. We express our emotions by hugs and kisses. But back to the point, thank you Ryan. I treasure everything you have done for me." Sharpay smiled sweetly.

"You're welcome." Ryan said, slightly frowning. He still felt light headed, and unsettled by the glory of that kiss they shared.

Sharpay stood up, and walked to the door. She turned and smiled at Ryan one last time, and quickly exited.

Ryan jumped up, and began to pace his room. His mind was going wild now. He had just kissed Sharpay, and it wasn't even him that initiated it! He had to wonder what it meant, and if Sharpay really did have feelings for him. He analyzed the kiss so much, that it started to become stale for him.

"No. It has been the one true kiss that we have shared, and I will savor it." Ryan told himself.

He laid back down on his bed, eyes closed, and smiled as he remembered her sweet lips pressed to his, her perfect body in his arms, how gently she was holding him, and her sweet scent that he could still smell. Ryan suddenly became aware of a tingling sensation in his loins. He slipped his hand under his pants and boxers, and stroked his hard member. He shuddered at his own touch, but imagined it to be Sharpay. Her beautiful hands caressing him, and touching him. He moaned slightly as his own hand pumped harder. He wanted to relieve himself so badly. His movements became quicker as he thought of Sharpay stroking and rubbing. How quickly her hands worked on him. His breathing became more erratic, and how much he was begging his sister in his mind to make him come.

"Please..." Ryan mumbled. "Mmm...Shar.."

The hand moved quicker, as the time for release came sooner. Ryan moaned loudly, as his imaginary sister was moving her hand quicker and quicker.

"Oh Ryan..." Sharpay moaned in his mind.

And with that, Ryan reached his breaking point. His whole body shuddered, and he moaned loudly. He lay very still, almost afraid to move. Sweat had developed on his brow, and his breathing was fast. Ryan sighed, and wished it had really been Sharpay to release him, and not the deed of his own hand.
