Note: Okay, so here is Chapter 1! So, like before, anything in Italics is either Ryan, thoughts, or dreams, in this case. I own nothing in
here. On with it!

Sharpay stood frozen to her spot. She had tears running down her cheeks, and trying to hold back her whimpers. Nobody has
ever seen her like this except her parents, who got sick joy out of it, and her brother, who tried so hard to protect her.
A slap.
A punch.
A cry.
A whimper.
Her eyes grew wide with horror as she saw Ryan being thrown to the floor, blood running down his lip as well as a black eye.
Their father kicked him in the stomach and looked up at Sharpay. A grin spread across his face.
She slowly started to climb up the stairs, backwards, but she stumbled and fell.
Their father grabbed her by the ankle and yanked her down.
Her head slammed into the stairs.
Sharpay woke up with a jolt, huffing and puffing over the nightmare she had just had. She slowly sat up, rubbing her eyes. She looked
at the clock. "Time to get up…" She mumbled softly, slowly dragging herself out of bed and into her bathroom, where her clothes
already lay to be put on.
She undid her pajama top and looked at her nude upper half. She traced a finger down scar after scar, bruise after bruise. It was a
wonder nobody had seen them, they were all over her.
Her arms.
Her back.
Her legs.
She managed to cover up the ones on her face using make up, but still, they literally covered her body.
Once she was dressed she quietly walked outside and waited for Zeke to come and get her.
She took a deep breath of the fresh, crisp air, and closed her eyes.
Ryan stood beside her and smiled softly at her, "Still keeping the secret?"
She jumped when she heard the honking of a horn, smiled when she saw Zeke and ran over and got in.
"You alright?" Zeke asked softly.
She nodded, "Thinking is all…I still can't get used to Ryan not being here with me, you know…?" She looked down.
He nodded sympathetically and rested a hand on her knee.
She bit back a yelp and instead she smiled and rests a hand on his.
"You know you can talk to about anything…everything…" He gently took his hand away, resting it on the steering wheel, and driving off.
"I know." She smiled.
Only it was a fake smile. She couldn't tell him everything, she couldn't tell him the one secret she needed to tell him.
No, she couldn't tell him.
Her and Ryan swore to each other never to tell a soul.
It was their own secret.
Their own deadly secret that is.
