CHAPTER 11: Max's Information


"I know I am her friend, best friend that is

All I want for her is to be happy in any way possible

But now that she's happy, why do I feel so sorry?

So sorry for myself because I can't stop loving her."


The next morning, everything went back to normal for Sharpay and Prince. She was really happy and everyone noticed it.

"Hey hey hey," Chad and the others sat at their table in the cafeteria where Sharpay was waiting.

"Look at her," Jason was referring to Sharpay.

"Is it me or you really are daydreaming?" Gabriella asked Sharpay.

No answer. She was too busy reminiscing what happened the day before that and smiling like crazy.

"SHARPAY!" they all shouted.

"Oh," Sharpay snapped back to reality. "You guys are here. How long have you been there?"

"Whatever Shar!" they all rolled their eyes.

"What?" Sharpay asked.

"SOMEONE…is too happy today," Kelsi winked at her.

"Who?" Sharpay asked.

"OH GOSH!" they all groaned.

"What?" she asked.

"YOU ARE THAT SOMEONE!" Taylor exclaimed.

"Oh," she gulped.

"I see you're wearing the bracelet already," Ryan looked at her wrist.

"Yup," she smiled.

"So…what happened yesterday?" Zeke smirked.

Sharpay can't help but smile and blush, "Well…"

"Oh come on!" the other girls were also turning red. "We wanna know!"

"Spill it out!" the other boys were interested too.

Ryan groaned while Troy tried hard to ignore the scenario.

"Alright," Sharpay turned really red. "From the mansion, we went shopping then to a private beach resort and then in a yacht."

"Details!" her friends demanded.

"Ok ok," she laughed. "First, he waited for me to make up. When we were both ready to go out we went to a luxury mall and shop, you know. We even shared this chocolate ice cream since he was carrying all my TWELVE shopping bags. We ate lunch at a resto in a private beach resort in Santa Fe. We were so tired so we both fell asleep. When I woke up, we were in a yacht. Then, we watched Serendipity, had a picnic, and let's just say…uh…THROW-SOMETHING PARTY."

"Aww," her friends were so happy for the couple. "That's so sweet!"

"Totally!" Sharpay started to blush again. "Hold on. We're going to the house this afternoon, right?"

"Yeah," everyone was excited.

After classes, they used the Evans' van to go to SharPrince house.

"Wow!" they were amazed.

"This is the house?" Jason asked.

"Yup," Sharpay nodded.

"It's b-big," Zeke said.

"And b-beautiful," Chad continued.

Afterwards, they started rearranging the furniture and repainting some rooms. While working they would play with Summer and do some other stuffs like singing and dancing. They really enjoyed working together.

"Um, guys…we're running out of paint," Taylor informed.

"Who wants to go?" Kelsi asked.

"I will," Ryan volunteered. "But I'll bring Summer with me."

Summer barked happily.

"Fine," the others sighed.

Ryan carried Summer, "Come on girl."

"Ryan, take care of my baby ok?" Sharpay said.

"I can do that." He smiled.

Ryan drove them to the nearest hardware. Back at SharPrince house.

"You seem so quiet today," Sharpay elbowed Troy. "I haven't heard anything from you."

"Huh?" Troy didn't hear her since he was in deep thought.

The others looked at them.

"Hmmm…I wanna know what's in your mind," she said.

"N-Nothing's…" he was cut off.

"I'm your friendship, remember?" she smirked. "If you can figure out something about me, I can also do that to you."

"But…," he was cut off again.

"LIARS go to hell," she looked at him. "Remember?"

"Um…guys, why don't we prepare snacks?" Zeke gave the others a "let's-give-them-a-time" look.

"But I want to paint," Jason didn't get the point.

"No, you don't!" the others glared at him. "You're coming with us, right?"

"Fine," he groaned.

"Um…Troy, Sharpay," Chad said. "While we prepare the snacks…"

Gabriella continued, "Just do the painting ok?"

Then, the others went out. They went to the kitchen to really prepare snacks although the main purpose is to give them a time to talk. When they left, there was a silence between Troy and Sharpay.

Troy continued painting.

Sharpay glanced at him.

"Why are you looking at me?" he asked.

"Um…n-nothing. Nothing," she was a little embarrassed.

Troy chuckled, "Is there something wrong?"

"With me? Nothing's wrong with me. I'm so happy, you know," she smiled. "But I know there's something wrong with you. You really are very quiet today."

"Don't I have the right to do that?" he asked.

"That's not the point," she said. "When I was down you're there to cheer me up. Now that I'm so happy you're…not even talking."

"That's my point," he still didn't look at her. "You're happy now. No need for me to be there and cheer you up."

"Friendship," she lightly hits him.

"What?" he asked.

"You are my best friend and I am yours. Whether I'm happy or not I want you to be always there for me ok?" she said. "Well…YOU ARE NOT OKAY!"

"Okay," he sighed. "What can I do to prove to you that I'm alright?"

"Hmm…"she started to think. "How bout…"

Ryan called out, "Guys, SNACKS ARE READY!"

"COMING!" Troy and Sharpay responded.

"Okay. I have an idea," she informed Troy.

"What is it?" Troy asked.

"Give me a piggyback ride," she smirked.

"What?" he looked at her. "You have your feet! You can walk all by yourself!"

"Please?" she pouted.

"No," he shook his head.

"Oh please Friendship," she walked towards Troy and didn't noticed a can of paint so she was tripped down. "AHH…"

She fell into Troy's arms.

"Gotcha!" Troy tried hard not to look in her eyes or else.

"Ouch! Oh my feet," she purposely flashed a "a piggyback ride will do" look.

"Fine," he groaned as Sharpay jumped into his back.

Troy started walking towards the kitchen. The others were already eating sandwiches and pizza and pasta.

Troy let Sharpay get off his back and groaned, "What a weight!"

"Shut up!" she playfully hit him.

The girls didn't know that Troy likes Sharpay so they just laughed like what they always do when the Friendships have a moment like this. But since the boys knew, they gave Troy a "nice one" look.

Troy tried hard not to blush.

Ryan spoke, "By the way, guess who I saw at the hardware."

"Who?" his friends asked.

"Max," Ryan replied. "And he informed me about the composition contest."

"Cool!" they exclaimed.

"Who wants to join?" Ryan asked.

"Sharpay, you should join," the others tried to convincef her. "And you too, Troy."

"What?" Troy doesn't want to join.

"We're done with it," Gabriella, Ryan, and Kelsi said.

"Now's our turn," Sharpay added.

"I can sing but not compose," Troy said.

"It's easy to compose." Ryan hoped it would help.

"Yeah," Sharpay agreed. "Just express what you feel."

"No," Troy insisted.

"Come on Troy," the others tried to convince him.

"For me," Sharpay pouted.

Troy looked at his friends.
