Okay... so who cares if I'm in Biology class right now? I'll still update... it's not like the teacher's paying attention or anything...

Empty East High Hallway

"Troy! Wait! Hold on!"

Why were girls so shameless? That thought and question was dispatched into his mind as he swung sharply around the corner of the empty corridor. Only down the hallway and gaining speed quickly, another cheerleader chased him down the hallway. He had just wanted a moment away from his class of the day, but had instantly been caught.

"I just want to talk to you!"

Why were girls so desperate? He agreed with himself as a familiar nook tucked away in an unoticable sect of the hall drew near. Quickly, Troy glanced over his shoulder to see a shadow cast against the white off the hallway's tiles and lockers as his stalker approached the same corner Troy had just swerved around. His heart caught in his throat from the nervous anticipation and adrenaline of it all... would he escape? Or would he fall into the inevitable clutch of another superficial cheerleader...?

Just as both of his hands grabbed the handles of grey mysterious double doors, he heard his name again. Swiftly, quietly, he shut the doors behind him, hoping he had vanished. After one deep breath, Troy journeyed up a set of concrete stairs, the New Mexico sun becoming clearer with every step, the spring air immediately giving off a sense of tranquility.

Everything seemed to be in place as he let his blue eyes scan the open area of the balcony. A number of pots containing daisies lined the cabinet in the corner of the expanse... baskets of ivy suspended from the ceiling... an anonymous blonde stood on her tiptoes as she tended to the camellias far across the balcony...? Troy's head tilted in confusion and alarm. By the blonde waves falling past her shoulders and the pink skirt that hugged her, Troy had a pretty good idea of who was watering his flowers... "Sharpay?"

She froze on the spot suddenly becoming aware of the other presense in the oasis. Sharpay slowly turned around, letting the nearly empty watering can drop to her side. Just over her shoulder stood Troy Bolton. She was a little confused as to why Troy Bolton was looking at her incredulously, but the question of how he had actually found her secret spot struck her harder. He gave her perplexed blue eyes. She gave him firey brown ones. "What are you doing up here?" she finally asked the golden question.

Troy looked just as surprised. "What are you doing here? How did you find this place?"

Sharpay was equally shocked. "How did you find this place?"

"I've been coming up here since sophmore year."

"Likewise."

"I brought these flowers up here."

"I kept them alive."

They locked themselves in silence as they thouroghly thought about their situation. Sharpay wasn't sure if Troy was thinking about a compromise at the moment, but she had already established that she wasn't sharing. End of discussion. She had discovered this secret spot, and she planned on keeping it. It was the sole definition of peace and escape... and she wasn't giving it up. "Well, there isn't room for two of us." She stubbornly crossed her arms over her chest, watching Troy's unsure blue eyes closely.

"Right." Troy agreed. What else could he have said? Sharpay already looked irritated.

"So."

"Soooo..."

Silence.

Sharpay impatiently tapped her foot and examined Troy as he stuffed his hands into the pockets of his jeans. He scraped his sneaker against the concrete awkwardly. "Aren't you going to leave?" Sharpay blurted.

"What? No way! I was here first!"

"I thought we had already determined that this is my spot..."

"Determined my ass, Sharpay. This balcony belongs to me."

"How do you want to settle this?"

Troy instantly fell silent again. Settle? He assumed Sharpay would eventually give up and storm off in a dramatic huff, but it was those words that made Troy realize that they were both determined. It wasn't going to be an easy fight...

Both sharply turned their heads towards the sound of their school bell ringing, indicating the end of class. Troy headed for the doors, assuming Sharpay would follow, but once he turned around and saw the flame sparked behind her copper eyes, he knew that when Sharpay Evans wanted something, she would fight to the finish to claim it as hers...

Hidden Balcony Doors

Once again, Troy gripped the handles of the double doors leading to the balcony. Though he already knew that Sharpay would be waiting at the top, he slowly maneuvered up the stairs anyways, just to give himself the same element of surprise as before...

And she was there, sitting on the park bench that was turned toward the radiating sun. Though her back was turned to him, Troy could almost feel the same harmony of the spring breeze and abundant amount of flowers that pulsed through her. Maybe she wasn't too bad... Troy ran a hand through his hair and sighed before joining her on the park bench, entering the same atmosphere that kept her at peace. "How about this..."

How about this... the first words of compromise. Sharpay instantly leaped up, heading towards the concrete steps. She refused to share, knowing that it would somehow take away from the secrecy, from the privelege of having a place of her own. "Come on, Sharpay! Just hear me out!" he shouted after her as the click-clack of her heels against the pavement sounded next. He chased after her, grabbing her by the arm, disabling her from going any farther.

"I'm not compromising! Is that so difficult for you to understand?" she snapped at him as she attempted to tear her arm out of her grip. "Why won't you just go away?"

"Because this place is just as important to me as it is to you!"

"Yeah, right..."

"Come on Sharpay..."

"I'm giving you to the count of three to let go of my arm and leave before I do some serious damage..."

"God, why do you have to be such a bitch?"

"One..."

"Sharpay!"

"Two..."

Not only was her voice filled with a teasing confidence, but her arms crossed confidently over her chest made Troy even angrier. He knew that she knew that she was eating away at her, and he knew that she knew that she loved every moment of it. A giggle escaped her lips as Troy's irritation grew.

"Th..."

Silence.

But this silence was created by Troy's lips crashing against hers at the last moment, in a desperate attempt to shut the Ice Queen up. Even thought he would never admit it to himself, part of Troy just wanted Sharpay to shut her mouth, but most of him had been wanting to kiss her passionately for a long time. Sharpay soon got over the shock of Troy's actions, and they moved as one, her hands moving to his shoulders, and his arms encircling around her waist. The raw passion building within their split oasis drove them against the wall, causing a flower pot of black susans to crash to the ground.

Dry clay shattered and dirt dispersed along the floor, but they never tore away from each other.

And in the back of two minds, the thought of sharing finally existed. Maybe it would become a nice makeout spot...

I have waaaay... too many ideas for June, and I have no idea which one to choose! But that's not your drama. Anyways, click the awesome purple button down there and leave me some love.
