Thank you so much for all the reviews! I love them! Special thanks to troypazash for pointing out a mistake- They are living in NYC. In chapter 3 I accidently wrote that they were in the Albuquerque Hospital, forgetting that I had them living in NYC. I'm sorry if I confused anyone! Thanks again for pointing it out!
Also, GimmeABeat- I'm not sure how I'm going to write the Gabriella and Sharpay relationship yet. Gabriella might only be in a few chapters, but I just wanted to start them off as friendly. Maybe it'll change….I dk! Thank you for your opinion!!
There will be some Troypay and Ella&Troy moments in this chapter! I hope you enjoy!
Disclaimer- I don't own anything you recognize.
Gabriella had left her number on Sharpay's desk after her appointment. Sharpay, unfortunately, was in the bathroom at the time so she couldn't give Gabriella's hers. At this moment, Sharpay was currently driving to the daycare that she dropped Ella off at. Sharpay wanted Ryan to watch Ella but he couldn't; he had a rehearsal for his Broadway play, Chicago. She made it to the daycare and stepped out of her car. She put on her sunglasses and locked her doors before walking inside the place.
She saw Ella playing with some other little girls around her age and laughing. They were currently playing with their Barbies. Sharpay smiled as she walked over to the receptionists' desk. "Hi. I'm here to pick up Ella Evans." She said politely to the woman working behind the desk.
The woman, Charlene, smiled and handed her a pen. "Can you please sign her out?" she asked, pointing to the sign in/out book on the desk.
Sharpay grabbed the pen and filled out the right information before giving the pen back to Charlene. She turned around and started walking towards Ella. Once she made it to her, she picked her up and tickled her sides.
Ella shrieked then giggled before turning around in her mom's arms. "Hi mommy!" she exclaimed, greeting her with a kiss. "I had so much fun today. I played barbies with my friends!" she pointed to the little girls still sitting on the floor.
"You did?" she asked cheerfully. Ella nodded furiously with a huge smile before waving to her friends.
"I had a lot of fun today. Maybe I'll see you again!" her friends nodded their heads. Ella waved one last time before Sharpay and her left. "Can we go eat lunch at King Troy's diner?" Ella asked as Sharpay buckled her in the car right. Sharpay closed the door and walked over to the drivers' side. She climbed in and put her own seatbelt on.
She turned to look at Ella and rolled her eyes at Ella's cute puppy dog pout. "You really want to?" she asked and Ella nodded her head. "Yes mama."
Sharpay sighed as she turned the car on. "Alright. I guess we can go for a quick lunch." Ella squealed and clapped her hands.
"Love you mama."
"Love you too Care Bear."

Sharpay and Ella walked into the diner and walked up to the hostess's stand. Ella saw Troy sitting with Chad and a woman at a table at the other end of the diner and started jumping up and down. "KING TROY!" she screamed while running towards Troy.
Sharpay rolled her eyes with a smile on her face and let Ella run continue to run towards him. Troy turned and smiled as he saw Ella running towards him. He stood up and held out his arms. Ella jumped into them and hugged him tightly. Troy smiled even bigger and kissed the top of her head. "Hello princess."
Ella giggled and kissed his cheek, as she always did. "Hi King Troy. My mama and I are going to eat here for lunch right now. I asked her because I wanted to see you and she said we could stay. I haven't seen you in a few days and I missed you but not anymore because you're here now." She ranted and started to poke Troy's cheek again like she did when they were in the hospital. By this time, Sharpay had made her way towards them and was standing in front of Troy.
"Hey Bolton." She smiled, rubbing Ella's back gently.
Troy rolled his eyes but smiled anyway. "Hey Shar."
Ella looked at the people at the table and started to become shy. She hid her face in Troy's neck. Sharpay giggled as Troy started to gently rock Ella in his arms. Sharpay made eye contact with Chad and rolled her eyes. "Danforth." She said shortly with a glare.
"Evans."
The woman beside Chad spit out her drink and stared at Sharpay. "Sharpay?" she asked incredulously. Sharpay looked at her and smiled slightly when she recognized the woman.
"Taylor McKessie."
Taylor nodded her head and stood up, pushing Chad out of the way and embraced Sharpay awkwardly. "How are you?" she asked as she pulled away from Sharpay, pulling her down in a chair and started having a conversation with her. Chad rolled his eyes and banged his head on the table. Ella saw Chad do that and giggled to herself. Chad lifted his head and looked at Ella. "Are you laughing at me?" he asked playfully. Ella nodded her head and laughed again as he banged his head on the table. Troy laughed as Ella giggled and clapped her hands excitedly. Chad banged his head again only a little too hard. He lifted his head and put a hand to it. "Ow." He muttered and started rubbing his hand over his forehead.
Ella giggled some more before kissing Troy's cheek again. "Mama!" Ella screamed quietly, gaining Sharpay and Taylor's attention. "I'm hungry!" she rubbed her tummy.
Sharpay laughed. "I'm guessing you want to order now?" She asked knowingly.
Ella nodded her head. "Yes please."
Troy set Ella down on the seat next to Sharpay, which made Ella whimper, and took out a small note pad and pencil from his back pocket. "I can take your guys' order."
Sharpay nodded her head and rubbed Ella's back who was still crying slightly from being put down. "I'll have a Caesar salad and Ella will have the kids grilled cheese meal right?" she asked Ella, who nodded her head and stuck her thumb in her mouth.
Troy smiled and wrote that down on his pad of paper. He leaned down and whispered in Ella's ear. "I'll be right back princess." And kissed her cheek. He walked away to put their order in.
Taylor smiled at Ella. "So Ella, You call him King Troy?" she asked, and smiled as Ella smiled and sat up straighter in her seat.
"Uh huh! He calls me princess so that means he's a king!" Taylor and Sharpay laughed and Chad held back a chuckle. "What's so funny?" she asked innocently with a shrug of her shoulders.
"Nothing Sweetheart." Sharpay said as she pulled Ella onto her lap.
"Adults." Ella mumbled with an eye roll, earning a laugh from the adults again. Troy came back from the back kitchen and picked Ella up, sitting on a chair and placing Ella on his lap. Ella giggled and grabbed her glass of apple juice that Troy brought for her. He also brought a glass of diet pepsi for Sharpay. Ella took a sip from it and placed it back on the table.
"It'll be ready in about 10 minutes." Troy explained to Sharpay who nodded her head. "Thanks."
Chad cleared his throat. "So, Ella, how old are you?"
Ella counted on her fingers. "One, two, three, four! Four!" she exclaimed happily. "I'm fours years old!"
Chad counted back four years and gasped. "You were 17 when you had her?" he asked Sharpay. Sharpay gasped and swallowed nervously. The adults looked at her while Ella just sat back smiling, not knowing what was going on.
"Yeah. 17 when I got pregnant and 18 when I actually had her." She explained and took a sip of her drink. She nervously tapped her fingers on her glass after she sat it back down on the table.
Troy's eyes grew wide in size and he looked down at Ella and then back at Sharpay. "Sharpay?" he asked and Sharpay looked up at him. "Who's her father?" He watched as Sharpays' eyes started to water and she didn't look him in the eye. Taylor and Chad put two and two together and slowly realized that the night that happened between Sharpay and Troy in high school was more than just a one night stand; it was the night Ella was conceived. Taylor and Chad watched, mouths agape. Troy did the math as well and was slowly getting angry. "Sharpay?" he demanded and Ella got scared by the tone of his voice.
Ella whimpered and climbed off of his lap and sat next to Chad and Taylor on the other side of the booth as Sharpay. Sharpay started crying and Troy's thoughts were confirmed. "Sharpay? Is she mine?"
I think I'll stop it there! I know this chapter was short and I'm sorry! I hope you enjoyed this chapter!
This is pretty rushed and I'm sorry!
Thanks again for all the reviews! ;)
