Chapter 4
As soon as Sharpay saw Troy a smile came on to her face. But it was quickly wiped off. 'He has a girlfriend!' she thought to herself. 'I can't be with him!' her head screamed, but her heart said something entirely different, something she wasn't ready to face yet. Then suddenly something felt wrong: everyone had stopped talking and was staring at someone. She turned around to see Troy struggling to walk. Her heart caught in her throat as his eyes went beck into his head and he fell, limp as a rag doll.
"Troy! Troy! Trooooyyy!" she screamed as she put his head in her lap. "Someone get the nurse!!!" She stared down at Troy. He was usually so strong and confident but now he looked so vulnerable. All she wanted to do was protect him but realizing she couldn't do anything she began to cry. "Wake up! Please wake up!" she wailed.
Troy realized when he woke up that he wasn't in the front of the school anymore and a blond-haired angel glowed above him. "Am I dead? Cause you sure look like an angel," he slurred eyes still heavy with sleep.
"No silly! It's me Sharpay, you're in the nurses office, Troy," the angel giggled. Troy still looked up at her with adoration.
"You're beautiful," he mumbled dreamily. Then he did something everyone at East High will remember, he leaned up and kissed her before falling back onto his pillow and letting the darkness and Sharpay's voice surround him.
Neither of them saw Gabriella walk in, her face streaked with tears. But once Sharpay put Troy's head back on the pillow, she turned around to see Gabriella with a hurt and puzzled expression on her face, followed closely by Ryan, who put a comforting hand on the shoulder.
"Gaby, it's not what it looks like . . . I didn't mean to . . . he was delirious! . . . and -"
"I thought you changed, Sharpay. But you're still just as much of a stuck up jerk as you always were!" Gabriella shouted back.
Sharpay lost her temper. She had worked so hard to change, and a comment like that stung more than when Troy said he didn't want her a few months ago.
"He kissed me Gabriella! And you shouldn't be talking! Look at that bracelet! That looks like a gift from someone special. Face it! You're not good enough for Troy. You met someone in Bermuda or something! Tell me who gave it to you!"
Gabriella instantly reached for her bracelet before turning and dashing out, tears once again streaming down her face. Ryan turned strangely red, then dashed out into the hallway after her.
Ryan ran up the hallway until he caught up with Gabriella. He cradled her in his arms, and wiped a stray tear off her baby soft face. "Hey don't worry about Sharpay said. It was awkward for everyone; and remember, Troy probably know what he was doing. He passed out, and that can really mess up a guy."
"Yea, but Troy probably had every right to kiss her. After what happened with us and Bermuda and the bracelet, ughhh!" At that moment, Ryan leaned in towards Gaby, feeling her soft, warm lips against his. As they separated, Ryan saw Gabriella smile an enormous, toothy grin. What Ryan didn't realize was that Chad was across the hall, running towards the nurses office and had witnessed the entire event. It killed Chad to do it, but when Troy was feeling better, he would have to send his world crashing down into a million pieces.
