Chapter 1

If you love something, let it go.

If it comes back to you, it's yours forever.

If it doesn't, then it was never meant to be.

"Troy!" screamed Sharpay on the phone while she was struggling to do her math homework.

"Hey Shar." Troy replied while throwing a basketball into the air and catching it with one hand as his other hand was holding the phone.

"Have you done the math homework?"

"Yeah I have, why?" Troy replied while looking into his bag to try and find his math homework, knowing she'll ask him for help.

"AH! I can't do any of it. I mean x+y, blah, blah. I mean seriously, who even invented an x or a y huh? They could've called it a Sharpay, stupid math and x and –"

"Sharpay, calm down, do you want some help?" Troy replied cutting off her little rant.

"Well...yeah. You know what Troy, I'm coming over to your house, okay? Cos I know i'm gonna be able to do any of these questions alone." Sharpay said desperately.

"Okay Shar. Come over and we'll do them together."

Troy cleaned up his room, and chuckled to himself, remembering Sharpay's panic attack.

The doorbell rang, and Troy went downstairs, while holding is basketball in his hands. He opened the door and pulled Sharpay into a big hug.

"I need air. Can't breathe." Said Sharpay whilst giggling like mad and jumped on Troy's back.

"Ow Shar. Get off me. You're too heavy." whined Troy.

"Oh...you did not just say that. You are really dead today Troy. Just wait." Sharpay said while glaring at Troy's back. "But after you carry me to room." She said, a lot more sweetly.

"Oh god. I really have to face Sharpay's wrath today." Troy muttered to himself while carrying Sharpay up to his room. She hopped off his back, and then immediately starting chasing him around his room holding a stick in her hands. Eventually Troy got a good hold of her and pinned her down the floor, while laying on top of her.

"Haha now i'm in control" Troy said while a smile of victory was on his face. He then moved one of his hands from her wrist and started tickling her. She laughed, and Troy took this opportunity to move his other hand from her wrist and use that hand to tickle her too. She laughed uncontrollably.

"Oh no, Trooooy!" she giggled, out of breath, "Stop it, Troy! Stop it, I can't- I can't breathe.. Please! TROY! sto-op it!"

"You know what to do!" Troy said, singing, "Say the words!"

"I will NOT!" Sharpay said, breaking into another laughing fit, as Troy's fingers moved to an especially ticklish spot on her stomach, "I'll never-" breath, "…say it!"

"SAY IT!" Troy yelled, laughing down at her, enjoying the power he had.

"FINE, I'LL SAY IT. Troy Bolton is the hottest, most amazing and sweetest guy in the whole world."

Troy stopped tickling her, and lay beside her, laughing like crazy. Sharpay slapped his arm, in revenge for him giving her so much torture and snuggled up next to him. Troy put his arm around her shoulder and pulled her in closer. They just sat there, in silence, enjoying each others company, before Sharpay and Troy argued about which movie to watch.

"I want to watch Titanic, do you understand that?"

"I don't wanna watch a chick flick okay Shar" Troy said while showing her Saw. Why can't you watch a chick flick later huh, with gabby, who is also your best friend?"

"Please Troy! I think i should decide, because i came here to do my math homework and you didn't even help me with it, so now tomorrow i'm gonna get a detention because you didn't help me." Sharpay moaned, while putting her DVD in the DVD player and pressing play.

"Shar, we are watching SAW! Troy said as he pushed Sharpay out the way, trying to reach for his DVD, but instead falling on top of her. Sharpay started giggling, just thinking about how they had been arguing for ages about a movie. Soon Troy joined in, and they were both laughing. Troy suddenly stopped laughing as he realised the awkward position they were both in. His fingers were intertwined with Sharpay's and he was on top of her. He couldn't help but think how great her skin felt underneath his and how beautiful she looked, even though she was only in her pyjamas. Sharpay stopped laughing too, and their eyes locked. Brown met Blue. Troy leaned in slowly, and Sharpay slowly leaned in towards him too. They then heard a vibrating from Sharpay's pocket and sprung apart from each other.

"Hey Gabby. Yeah, I'm at Troy's. Tomorrow sounds good to me. See you then!"

"It was Gabby's call. Anyway Troy I have to go, sorry. I'm supposed to be home by 11." Sharpay said and kissed Troy's cheek and left the house.

Troy stared at the wall, and had his hand on his cheek. There was a tingly feeling where she kissed him. He didn't know why. She had kissed him on the cheek before, plenty of times, then why was he feeling so weird this time? He convinced himself that it was only because he was beginning to get more mature and older, and he didn't have a girlfriend, so he would feel that way if any girl kissed him on the cheek. He was really wondering what was going on with him. He was feeling different. He never realised how truly beautiful Sharpay was until today. Everyone had always mistaken them to be a couple since they were very young, but they had thought nothing of it, and had continued being best friends and dating other people.

"UGHH!" Troy screamed. He hated this. Why did this have to happen right now? Why, oh why, did she have to be so beautiful, so sweet and sensitive and just so...amazing. "I don't love her." He kept muttering to himself, thinking that if he said it enough times it would come true.
