Previously:
"Oh my gosh Troy I was right look!" she screamed as Troy looked inside and saw Ryan and Gabriella pull apart from their kiss.
"Sharpay, Troy!" they both screamed. Gabriella opened the balcony doors and crossed her arms over her chest as Ryan stood behind her.
"Well?" Gabriella said looking at the couple in front of her.
"Have anything to say?" Ryan asked.
"Actually yes" Troy said and was about to continue before Sharpay cut him off.
"FINALLY!" she screamed.
"Oh my gosh Gaby, that is so cute! Wow, didn't know my brother had such a cute side." Sharpay said as Gabriella giggled.
"Hey, I heard that!" Ryan said from the living room.
"Well, it's true, now scoot over, I wanna sit next to my man." Sharpay said giggling as she pushed her brother and sat next to Troy.
"Since when am I your man?" he asked wrapping his arm around her shoulder.
"Since that first day on my balcony." She whispered in his ear.
"Good, because that's when you became my girl" he whispered back before closing the gap between them.
"Eww, gross. Please Sharpay not in front of your own brother" Ryan said as Gabriella giggled and sat on his lap.
"Shut up Ryan because I could say the same to you" Sharpay said back as she settled back into Troy. Gabriella giggled as she laid her head on Ryan's shoulder.
"It looks like its going to rain again. Lets watch a movie" Gabriella said getting off of Ryan and walking over to the TV.
"Ok but no chick flicks" Troy said as Sharpay and Gabriella pouted.
"Oh, come on. I really want to watch The Wedding Planner" Gabriella said holding it up.
"Oh my gosh Gabs I love that movie!" Sharpay said. Ryan and Troy groaned.
"Ok let's make it fair. You guys watch our movie and we'll watch a horror movie after. Everyone happy now?" Gabriella asked. The boys nodded and Sharpay sighed.
"Fine, but put on our movie first because Matthew McConaughey is hot" Sharpay said fanning herself. Gabriella and Ryan laughed at Troy's face.
"Excuse me?" he said looking at Sharpay.
"Oh but not as hot as you baby" she said as Troy smirked.
"That's what I thought" Sharpay giggled. Gabriella turned off the lights and pressed play. The movie started with Gabriella leaning on Ryan's shoulder and his arm around her.
"How cute are they?" Sharpay, who was sitting on Troy's lap, whispered in his ear.
"Yup. And we didn't even have to butt in" he whispered back. She smiled as she laid her head on his chest. Troy ran his hands through Sharpay's hair and leaned his head back.
"Don't you fall asleep Mr. Bolton" she said as his grip on her tightened.
"But I'm tired. Didn't really get much sleep last night." He said smirking.
"Well then, guess we wont be doing that again so you can sleep more." She said smiling.
"Not a chance baby, not a chance" Troy said kissing her forehead. Sharpay smiled wrapping her arms around his waist.

5 months later
It was dark outside and Troy was sitting on a tire swing in his front yard with Sharpay on his lap facing him. It had been five months since Ryan and Gabriella got together. They decided to let everyone know it so they didn't have to keep their relationship a secret. Sharpay smiled remembering the look on Taylor and Chad's face when they saw Sharpay walking into East High the Monday after the storm with Ryan by her side that had his arm around Gabriella's waist.
Flashback
"Gabriella? Um, are you, is he, what happened?" Taylor asked as Chad just stared at the pair.
"Nothing happened except that me and Ryan are together now." she said looking up at Ryan.
"Excuse me?" Taylor said.
"Are you serious?" Chad finally asked. Gabriella frowned and kissed Ryan.
"Serious enough for you?" she asked. Taylor nodded slowly as Chad's jaw dropped.
"Is there a problem Chad?" Gabriella asked.
"What? Oh no, just…surprised is all. Well, that's um, cool. But uh, what about your sister?" Chad whispered to Ryan.
"What about me?" Sharpay asked standing next to Ryan arms crossed.
"Nothing" Chad mumbled looking at his feet.
"If you're implying that the fact that Ryan has a girlfriend has mw pissed, well you're wrong Danforth. I'm perfectly fine with the relationship, besides, only an idiot would have not noticed they liked each other." Sharpay said looking at her nails. Gabriella blushed as Ryan elbowed Sharpay.
"What? It's true" she said. Sharpay looked up and saw Troy walking over to them. She smiled at him and he smiled back. Taylor noticed and looked to see who Sharpay smiled at. She saw Troy walking towards them and stop next to Chad.
"Hey guys, what's up?" he asked avoiding eye contact with Sharpay. He looked up at her and she looked at him and turned her face away smiling. This did not go unnoticed by Taylor.
"Well, I'm guessing you know about Ryan and Gabriella seeing as you're her best friend Troy" Chad said.
"Huh? Oh yea, I know." He said.
"Yea well congratulation guys and I'll talk to you at lunch Gabs. Bye" Taylor said pulling Chad with her.
After they left, the four of them burst into laughter.
"Oh my god, did you see Chad's face when he saw you and Gaby?" Sharpay said. Gabriella giggled as she buried her face into Ryan's neck.
"That was definitely worth it." Ryan said as Gabriella nodded.
End of Flashback
"What you thinking about?" Troy asked, pushing a blonde hair behind her ear.
"Nothing, just how Chad and Taylor and the whole school reacted when they found out about Gabs and Ryan." She mumbled into his chest.
"There's something else isn't there?" Troy asked.
"Yea. Gabriella told me yesterday Taylor and Chad think we are and have been going out for a while and Chad wants to find out" she said.
"Oh" Troy replied.
"Troy, I don't want to keep it a secret anyone. I don't care who knows and what they think as long as I have you beside me" she said. Troy put a finger underneath her chin and lifted it up.
"Of course I'll be there the whole time. But do what you want to do." He said. Sharpay smiled and kissed him.
"Thank you and I think I'm ready. I mean, your parents know, Gaby knows, my brother knows, and somehow, my mother knows, probably Ryan. So maybe its time the whole school does too." She said. Troy smiled and wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her closer.
"Good because that means I can do this whenever I want now" Troy said as he leaned down and gave her a passionate kiss.
Meanwhile
"I just don't understand why we can't just ask them. They'll tell us eventually because Troy will breakdown" Taylor whispered as she walked behind her boyfriend.
"You don't know that Tay. Besides, spying is way more fun" Chad said. Taylor rolled her eyes.
"Remind me again why I put up with you?" she asked. Chad turned around and gave her a quick kiss.
"Because you love me. Now be quiet and get down." He said as he crouched down behind a shrub on the side of Troy's house. Taylor sighed but did as she was told.
"And exactly how long are we going to stay out here?" she asked
"I don't know. It's Saturday and I know Troy went out with her because over the last five months it's been a routine and I bet she's inside with him" Chad said.
"Geez Chad, stalker much?" Taylor said making herself comfortable on the grass.
"Yes now shh" he said as Taylor rolled her eyes. Two hours later Chad woke up when he heard talking. He looked and saw Troy sit on a swing with a girl on his lap. Chad shook Taylor awake and she lifted her head from his shoulder.
"What?" she whispered. Chad just pointed to Troy.
"Oh my god he is with Sharpay" Taylor said.
"I told you! I told you from the beginning and you thought I was crazy." He said but Taylor told him to be quiet.
"Chad, shh they're talking." Taylor said as they both leaned in and heard the conversation.
"Troy, I don't want to keep it a secret anyone. I don't care who knows and what they think as long as I have you beside me" she said. Troy put a finger underneath her chin and lifted it up.
"Of course I'll be there the whole time. But do what you want to do." He said. Sharpay smiled and kissed him.
"Thank you and I think I'm ready. I mean, your parents know, Gaby knows, my brother knows, and somehow, my mother knows, probably Ryan. So maybe its time the whole school does too." She said. Troy smiled and wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her closer.
"Good because that means I can do this whenever I want now" Troy said as he leaned down and gave her a passionate kiss.
"Chad, we should go. We found out what we wanted to and as his best friend, I suggest you let him tell you himself" Taylor whispered.
"But Taylor" but Chad stopped when he saw the look Taylor gave him.
"Fine. I guess I should stop spying on them" he said as he got up.
"Yes, now can we go back to your house and watch that chick flick you promised me?" she said getting up.
"Aw come on Tay. Don't make me sit through The Notebook again" he whined as they walked behind Troy's house to his car.
"Why not? Ryan Gosling's hot and Rachel McAdams is very pretty" Taylor said. Chad slung his hair around her shoulders.
"Not as pretty as you" he whispered in her ear.
"Aw, thanks. But your still watching the movie" she whispered back.
"It was worth a shot. Oh and I meant it" he said kissing the side of her head.
Back with Troypay
Sharpay pulled away from the kiss and smiled. She repositioned herself on Troy's lap and laid her head on his shoulder kissing his neck.
"Love you" he mumbled into her hair.
"Love you too" she said into his neck.
"So you have any ideas on how to tell everyone?" Troy asked resting his head against the side of the tire while running his fingers through her hair.
"Actually yes, and it involves a song, the talent show and you" she said finding his hand and intertwining their fingers. Troy ran his thumb over her hand but stopped when he felt something. He smiled and lifted up her head to face him.
"You're wearing the ring" he whispered to her, referring to the promise ring he got her for Christmas.
"I was getting tired of wearing it around my neck, and besides, I wanted to show it off. Talent shows on Friday, I can keep the school guessing five days right?" she said looking at the silver band covered in diamonds. Troy told her not to ask how he paid for it because it didn't matter and made her accept it.
Troy smiled and hugged her tighter.
"Troy honey" Troy and Sharpay looked towards the front door to see his mom there.
"It's getting late. Sharpay dear, you going to stay here tonight?" Mrs. Bolton asked.
After a month of dating Sharpay decided to tell his parents they were going out because she had always liked the Bolton's. They had welcomed her with open arms and made her feel right at home, something she didn't have with her own family. Seeing as her mother was barely ever home, always "away at business" and Ryan was always out late, it had become a habit of Sharpay staying over at Troy's house. The guest room was practically her own room there even though she always snuck into Troy's room.
"If it's alright with you Mrs. Bolton. Mom's away again." Sharpay said.
"Of course it's alright sweetheart. You know where the room is. Now come on you too, it's getting chilly out here." She said before closing the door.
"I don't think my mom has ever liked one of my girlfriends as much as she likes you. No she loves you" Troy said. Sharpay smiled and hugged him.
"Come on princess, time for bed" he said trying to get up
"Nah, I'm very comfortable right here" she mumbled into his chest. Troy smirked before getting up with Sharpay in his arms. She squealed and wrapped her legs around his waist and gripped on his shoulders. Troy laughed as he walked towards the front door.
"That's not funny. You scared me. What if I fell?" she said as they walked into the house. Mrs. Bolton was watching from the kitchen with an amused face.
"You wouldn't have fallen because I would never let you fall" he said.
"Aw, you're to cute, now put me down so we can get ready for bed." She said resting her forehead against his.
"Not until I get a kiss first" he said, their noses touching. Sharpay giggled.
"Of course" she said a kissed him. Troy smiled and put her down.
"I'm gonna shower. Be right back" she said walking past him towards the stairs. Troy smiled as she walked upstairs.
"She's definitely a keeper." Troy jumped and turned around to see his mother standing there smiling.
"Yes she is" he said walking towards her.
"Night mom" he said kissing her cheek and running up the stairs.
