Chapter 14 Bathroom Worries
The next morning Ryan woke up early and decided to go and peek into Sharpay's room to see if she was ok. He quietly opened her door and looked into her room expecting to see her curled up on her bed as usual, however, she wasn't there. He was starting to get a bit panicky when he noticed her bathroom door was ajar. He tiptoed over to her bathroom and saw her sitting on the floor crying, before thinking about letting her be he quickly opened the door, which startled her, "Ryan!" she gasped, "You scared me!"
"Sorry…" he said sitting down next to her, "I just wanted to see if you were feeling better…then I found you here…crying…what's up…?"
"Ryan…it's nothing…I already told you…" she said turning away from him, "I'm just still not feeling well, and I'd like it if you could just leave me alone for a bit…"
He looked hurt, but respected her wishes and left her in peace in her bathroom.
Ryan moped about downstairs for the rest of the morning until Sharpay finally came downstairs. "Heya," she greeted him with a smile and a peck on the cheek, he wrapped his arm around her and gently kissed her on the lips. Their kiss eventually turned into a warm embrace, and Sharpay was really grateful of her brother's hugs – they always cheered her up when she was feeling down. He offered to make her something to eat, she nodded and went and sat down on the sofa. Ryan brought Sharpay's food to her but found her crashed out on the sofa, he sighed and set down the tray, picked her up and carried her upstairs to her bed. He laid her ever so gently in her bed, pulled the covers over her and kissed her lightly on the forehead before closing the door behind her and leaving her to rest. Ryan was starting to get worried about Sharpay, she hadn't been eating for the last few days and had been sleeping a lot, he hoped that she hadn't become anorexic or something.
Sharpay woke to a dim light, she was fully clothed but in her bed, and was aware that she was feeling hungry. She remembered that Ryan was preparing her something to eat whilst she waited on the sofa, but she must have drifted off and now it was evening.
I felt ill again today and fell asleep all day. I again closed up when Ryan tried to talk to me, but I didn't feel like opening up to him today. I'm staring to worry that this might be worse than I thought, but I need to find out for sure.
