"Hey Troy!" Sharpay smiled, setting her lunch tray next to his. He sighed and faked a smile back.
"Uh, hey Sharpay…"
"Doing anything tonight?" She inquired, resting her hand on her hand. He needed someone to get him out of this.
"I don't know." He answered, scanning the table for someone to do something with. "Gabriella?" He asked, even though she knew he was begging. Ryan lifted his head up at the sound of Gabriella's name. He looked over at her as an attempt to remind her of their own plans. Luckily, he caught her eyes and she remembered.
"No Troy, I have stuff planned with Ryan, remember?"
"Oh ya… I forgot." He muttered. "I guess I'm free Sharpay." He admitted. He liked having Sharpay as a friend, but when all she wants to do is talk about him, it can get to be a drag.
Sharpay grinned. "Great, do you want to come over to my house today?"
"Sure?" he nodded.
"Great, meet me at five!" She said and grinned over at Ryan, who half grinned.
Ryan and Sharpay were both sitting in her room, waiting for Troy and Gabriella to come over. Sharpay was still trying to find an outfit to wear.
"Sharpay, he really doesn't care what you're wearing!" He insisted, tired of seeing her trying on so many different ensembles.
"I have to look perfect Ryan!" She explained, coming out in yet another outfit, and two more in her hands. She sighed and examined his own outfit. "Maybe you should worry about your own outfit brother." She noted.
He glanced down at his pink t-shirt and blue jeans and shrugged. "I don't see anything wrong." He disagreed.
She laughed at what he said. "Ryan, you've got to be kidding me!" He stuck his tongue out at her and she did the same. This could have gone on for a while but someone knocked on the door.
"Uh, should I come back later?" Troy asked.
Ryan pointed a finger at his twin, "She started it." Sharpay picked up a pillow and chucked it at him. He laughed and got off of her bed.
"Is Gab here?" He asked Troy.
"No she's not, but she said she'd be here soon."
"Oh what a shame that she's not here yet, Ryan, run along." Sharpay said, kicking some clothes into her closet. "Hey Troy!" She said, rather bubbly. Outside of the room, Ryan was imitating his sister.
"Hi, so what am I doing here?" He asked, still confused.
"Uh, I don't know, we could watch a movie or something." She suggested.
"Cool, could I invite Chad over, he says he's bored."
Sharpay really wanted to say no, really wanted to, but she didn't. "Sure…" She sighed.
"Great, I'll call him now!" As he walked away, dialing Chad's number, Sharpay clenched her fists. There goes another night alone with Troy! She thought.
Ryan just got downstairs when the doorbell rang. He beamed and jogged over to the door. "Hey Gabr- Chad?" He finished, confused.
"Hey, Ry, Troy said I could come over to watch a movie." He said, coming in.
"Ya, but he just called, how'd you get here before Gabs?" He questioned.
"Well, I really drove here with Troy, and he came in to ask if it was okay for me to come in." He explained. "And here I am!" He said and saw the slightly disappointed look on his friend's face. "You're sad that I wasn't Gabriella aren't you." He accused.
"How'd you know- I mean!" He blurted out before covering his mouth with his hands.
"Dude, everyone knows you like her!" He laughed.
"Really?" Ryan asked, feeling embarrassed.
"Nah, I just made that up." Chad laughed again, putting an arm around Ryan. "I just wanted to see the look on your face when I told you that."
Ryan moved Chad's arm away and started walking away. "That wasn't funny Chad!" Ryan grumbled.
"Come on Evans, it was just a joke!" He said, walking with him. "Besides, I won't tell anyone."
"Promise?" Ryan asked, looking at his friend.
"Promise."
"Not anyone?"
"Not anyone."
"Not even if they tie you down and threaten to tickle you to death unless you tell?"
"Ryan, I promise okay."
"You have to agree!"
Chad sighed. "Not even if they tie me down and… what was that last part?"
Ryan smiled. "That's good enough for me Chad." He held out his hand and Chad took it and they both smiled.
Sorry I didn't have an author's note thingy on the last chapter, but I didn't think it needed one so… ya… Anyways, I would have made this chapter longer, but I didn't feel like it. Please review, and I'll get the next chapter up ASAP!
