"Great job everybody!" Ryan Evans told his back-up dancer after their performance.

Everybody was clapping and shouting as they reached the backstage. The audience was still buzzing after his song "" I Want It All." Ryan was really happy with how things were turning up in the musical.

Ryan saw his sister talking to the stage manager. Sharpay's number with Troy was next, so he decided to approach her and wish her good luck.

"Hey!" he greeted.

Sharpay didn't recognize his presence immediately for she was busy telling the stage manager about something.

"Aww…" she finally responded. "Cute pants. Aww…"

Before Ryan could respond to her reaction, he was cut off by the stage manager telling Sharpay that she was on next.

Ryan's face fell. He felt so rejected. His own twin didn't even tell him what she thought of his performance. Not even a single congratulation escaped her pink lips. He knows that Sharpay was a "little" self-centered but they were siblings, twins even. Her opinion on his performance mattered to him.

"Hey!"

Ryan jumped as he was shocked out of his thoughts. He turned around and saw a small girl wearing a blouse somewhat imitating a tux.

"Kelsi? What are you doing here?" Ryan asked. He wondered what she was doing in the backstage. Wasn't she supposed to be at the orchestra pit getting ready for the next act?

"I just wanted to tell you something…" she answered with a slight blush.

"And what would tha…." Ryan was interrupted by her soft lips pressed against his.

As Kelsi pulled away from him, she looked at his surprised face and giggled.

"Good job Ryan." She said with a smile. She then rushed off back to the orchestra pit tp start the next act.

Ryan just stood still in his position. Not even bothered by the people rushing back and forth in front of him. He was still absorbing everything that just happened. He smiled as he realized that although Sharpay mat have not taken notice of him, there was still someone out there that appreciated what he does. And he will always value Kelsi's opinions on his performance.

Ryan heard the first notes of Just Wanna Be With You play. He dashed off to the side of the stage to watch her sister perform. While doing so, he made a mental note to himself to talk to Kelsi after the show so he could thank her for her compliment and congratulate her for doing a good job as well.

'Doing it the same way she did is not a bad idea at all' he thought as he watched Kelsi play his favorite song in the musical.
