Anger, Jealousy and Confessions

Sharpay huffed quietly to herself, she was angry at Troy for his behaviour at lunch. It was after school now and Sharpay was sitting in one of the chairs, her chair, in the theatre audience. Nobody else was there of course, Mrs Darbus had packed up and gone home entrusting Sharpay to lock up as she often did. Mrs Darbus understood Sharpay needed to be at the theatre to ease her mind of troubles sometimes. Sharpay frowned remembering the aftermath of Troys little outburst.

"STOP IT!" Troy yelled. The whole table went silent, in fact the whole cafeteria went silent and looked at Troy. "We are trying to eat." He added, and looked at his plate. Meanwhilst everybody stood stock still, Troy wasn't the kind of guy to just shout at his friends like that and nobody had ever minded when him and Gabriella had been so loved up. Nobody had said a word, whilst it had been quite sickening. Sharpay looked at Troy and narrowed her eyes.

"Whats your deal?!" She asked him, clearly very angry at him.

"C'mon Shar, lets blow." Zeke said as he stood up from the table, Sharpay nodded while Troy just stared at his plate.

"Don't leave guys..." Chad tried to convince them, whilst he was glaring at Troy.

"Its okay Chad, really. You can't help your excuse for a friend here." Sharpay retorted as they walked away. Gabriella and Taylor had been in the food line when Troy had shouted, and were now walking over. They sat down where Sharpay and Zeke had been. Ryan was just sitting there, shocked.
"What happened?" Gabriella asked as she took a bite out of her sandwich.

"Well doofus here, shouted at Sharpay and Zeke because they were kissing." Chad said, harshly hitting Troy on the head. Troy looked at Chad, Taylor shook herhead.

"Idiot." Was all she said.

Sharpay only knew most of this because Taylor and Gabriella had told her in Chemistry, Sharpay was still fuming. How dare he?! He has no right to even...her thoughts were interrupted as Troy came and sat beside her. She looked at him, obviously angry. Troy tried a smile.

"Hey Sharpay.." He said slowly, and she fakely smiled at him.

"Shar...I need to tell you something..." Troy stammered as he took her hand. Sharpay looked down.

"Go on then..tell me." She was still angry, but she couldn't remain angry at Troy, he was her friend.

"I think I like you. As in, I think I have a crash on you." He said quickly. And to his surprise Sharpay started laughing.

"Very funny." She said as she stood up and pushed past him, walking down the main aisle towards the stage. Troy soon stood up and quickly followed after her.

"Sharpay you don't understand!" Troy said as he followed her down, she climbed up onto the stage and looked down at him as he jumped up.

"No Troy, you don't understand. I have a boyfriend, you have a girlfriend. Thats just how it is. You and I are best friends and thats how I want it to remain. For good. Okay?" She explained, calmy. Troy was shocked by her calmness, he thought she would have been shrieking by now, not that he wanted her to.

"But Sharpay haven't you ever though about you and I being together?"

"No." She replied, flatly.

"Well I have..." Troy said as he walked towards her, and he took her hands. She snatched them away from him. Troy could see in her eyes now, she was

"Don't be so stupid Troy!" She shrieked and brought her hand up slapping him hard across the face. Troy fell over due to the force of her slap and the shock. He put his hand to his now red, sore cheek. Sharpay gasped, she hadn't meant to hurt him so much.

"Oh my god, Troy. I am so sorry I really didn't mean to..." She said quickly, letting her voice trail off, she kneeled and removed his hand, it looked quite bruised. Sharpays heart was pounding and Troy was just speechless.

"I'll go get some ice. Yeah...ice." Sharpay slowly said and got up, walking out of the theatre, she knew they always stored ice in the school office, even though they had already gone home she could just go in and get it. As soon as Sharpay ha dleft the theatre Troy let go of his breath. He couldn't believe Sharpay had just done that, then he heard the sounds of heels clicking down the theatre aisle. She couldn't be back already could she? He turned, still holding his cheek and down walked his girlfriend Gabriella. Troys eyes widened, she didn't look too happy.

"Troy I saw everything." Gabriella said, firmly.

"I..can...explain?" Troy offered, nervously. Gabriella bit her lip.

"I have it in my mind to slap you right now."

"I know, hey well how about when Shar comes back, I'll tell her I'll be going and I'll meet you in your Scholastics room...you are the only one there now right?"

"I was just clearing up. You better be there. You have five minutes." She said sternly and turned on her heel, walking out most angrily. Troy let out another breath he had been holding.

Soon Sharpay returned, equipped with an ice pack, she put it on his cheek.

"That should numb the pain so keep it there for a while. And again, I'm really sorry. But what you said Troy...I..you...me..We"

"I know I get it Sharpay." Troy interrupted and stood up. "I have to go." He said and swallowed, jumping off the theatre stage.

"Okay, bye." Sharpay said and walked backstage.

Troy let the theatre and walked to Gabriellas study room for the Scholastics Decathlon. He found her there wiping all the equations off the board, she turned to face him.

"Gabriella I just wanna apologise." He started.

"For what?" She asked, turning to face him.

"For the things I said to Sharpay. I'm sorry, I guess I'm just a little jealous is all."

"A little?!"

"Okay a lot. But I still want you and me to"
"Troy you can't be in love with two girls." Gabriella interrupted.

"I know, but what about you and me?" Troy started walking over to her but she walked away from him.

"I don't know anymore Troy, maybe we should break..."

"Don't say that Gabi, I love you, you know I do." Troy looked crestfallen.

"But you love Sharpay too? She's your best friend I know, and I'm your girlfriend, Sharpay is my friend."

"So if what you're saying, you mean it?" Troy asked, walking to the door.

"Yeah, I do." She nodded.

"See you then." Troy turned and walked out the room, closing the door behind him he gave Gabriella one last look before walking away. Gabriella sat down on the floor, and felt a tear trickle down her cheek.

"Screw you Troy Bolton. SCREW YOU!" She shrieked in her anger and sadness, how had things gone so wrong? Only a few days ago they had been kissing in the hallways and telling eachother they loved eachother.

Ryan walked down the corridor, he had just been getting something from his locker that he had left when he heard someone sobbing, he though. He opened the door to one of the classrooms and found Gabriella sobbing on the floor, Ryans heart leaped. He stepped inside and closed the door quielty behind him, walking over beside her and he kneeled down to her level.

"Are you okay Gabi?" He asked quite concerned, only to have Gabriella shake her head and pull him in for a tight hug, he hugged her back. And soothed her, letting her cry on his shoulder.

"Its okay Gabi...I promise." He said softly.
