Chapter 4
The bell signaling the end of school rang and everyone piled outside. Troy didn't. He stayed in the gym to practice his free throws. In the hallway, Sharpay stood at her locker humming. As she fixed her make up, she kept glancing at a picture of Troy in the back of her locker.
That was the reason why she never liked people near her locker. She hadn't told anyone that she liked Troy except for her dog, Boi,and Ryan. Sharpay closed her locker and headed for the gym. She didn't like going through there because of the smell, but it was a shortcut to the theater.

Troy practice drills over and over again until he got them right. He was even giving himself a pep talk. He was so into his one man game that he didn't notice Sharpay walk in.

Sharpay opened the door to see very sweaty, shirtless Troy practicing drills. She almost fainted at this sight. She took a deep breath. Then she held her head up high, stuck her chest out, and strutted towards the other door. When she got closer to Troy, she decided to make herself known. She stopped walking.
"Practice all you want, Bolton. You're not gonna get any better," she said.
Troy didn't even turn around. He just kept shooting. "Sharpay," he said.
"You know Troy, usually when people practice, it improves their skills. For you it does nothing at all," Sharpay said with a smirk on face.
Troy turned around and walked up to Sharpay, giving her an up close and personal full view of his abs. He backed her up against the bleachers. "Sharpay?" Troy asked.
"Yeah?" she asked. Then she silently gulped.
"Can I ask you something?" Troy asked.
He slowly slid his hand up her thigh and placed it under her shirt on her waist. 'Easy, Troy,' he thought.
Sharpay was about to explode. 'What is going on!' she screamed in her head. She was really in an uncomfortable when Troy brought his face closer to hers. He put his mouth up to her ear and breathed on it. She almost fainted again.
"Don't you have things to go freeze?" Troy asked. Then he pulled away from her and went back to practicing his drills.
Sharpay stared at him in awe. Then she did what she does best. "Whatever, basketball reject. But remember, I'm still gonna have the last laugh," she said. Then she held her head up and walked out the gym.
Troy shook his head and took a shot. 'Strange girl, but I like her,' he thought. 'Oh, yeah'
