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?"
Sharpay nodded her head as more tears started falling. Taylor and Chad looked at one another. Ella, who still had no idea what was going on, was pre-occupied with Chads' hair and started pulling on it and watching the curls go 'boing.' Troy glared at Sharpay and harshly pushed his chair back and stood up. "You're telling me that this little girl is mine and you haven't told me?" he yelled harshly. "Not only have you not told me after knowing her for these last 2 or so weeks but for 4 years? Why didn't you tell me Sharpay?" he asked loudly, standing above her and glaring. Sharpay didn't answer and covered her mouth as she sobbed. "Sharpay? Why didn't you tell me?" he yelled, slamming his hands down on the table. Ella jumped and started to cry and brought her knees up to her chest.
"Can we not do this here Troy?" Sharpay asked quietly, noticing all of the people from other tables looking at them curiously.
Troy rolled his eyes and forced her to look at him. "No Sharpay. We're going to do this here. I want an answer Sharpay so tell me- why didn't you tell me about this when you first found out?" he hissed, his eyes boring into hers.
Sharpay pulled herself away from him and sighed. "I was 17 years old Troy. 17 and I was going to have a baby. You were Troy Bolton- the God of East High. How the hell was I suppose to tell you that our drunken night would turn out to have a life long consequence? How was I supposed to tell you that we were going to have a baby? You had big plans for your future Troy. I was Sharpay Evans, bitch of East High. I couldn't do that to you Troy." She explained, getting angrier as she spoke. "I was scared shitless Troy. I didn't know what to do. I freaked." She wiped her eyes and turned to look at him. "I'm sorry I hurt you by doing this. I thought I was doing the right thing."
"Well it wasn't the right thing. A baby is much more important to me than playing basketball. I don't care if you were the biggest bitch alive. Ella is my baby girl. I would have dropped everything to help you. I would have done anything to be apart of her life. You kept her from me for four years." He stopped as he choked back some tears. "Four years Sharpay. Four fucking years and you think an 'I'm sorry' is going to make everything better?" he hissed angrily. He shook his head at her and stood up. He took one look at her before walking away. Sharpay broke down crying and put her head in her hands. Taylor was resting her head on Chad's shoulder also crying. Ella was also crying because of Troy. Troy had scared her with the tone of his voice and the way he talked to her mom.
"Where's his office?" Sharpay asked Chad, grabbing her bag and standing up.
Chad looked at her and made sure she was serious before answering. "In the kitchen, down the stairs and to the left. Tell the kitchen staff I let you through." She nodded and kneeled down in front of Ella.
"I'll be right back sweetie. Stay here with Chad and Taylor and be a good girl ok?" Ella nodded her head and Sharpay wiped her tears away. "No more crying Care Bear. Everything will be ok." She kissed Ella's cheek before walking towards the kitchen. She walked into it and saw the stairs. She walked down the stairs and turned to the left like Chad said. She saw Troy's door and walked up to it. She took a few deep breaths before knocking on the door. "It's open." Troy yelled angrily, thinking it would be Chad coming to pester him about Sharpay. Instead, he was surprised to see Sharpay enter the room and close the door behind her. "What do you want?" he hissed before sitting down in his chair again, typing something on his computer.
She took a seat that was opposite him and set her bag down next to her. "I don't expect you to accept my apology or to treat me with any respect, because I don't deserve it after hurting you the way I did, but can we please figure something out with Ella." Troy looked up at her the minute he heard Ella's name. "She loves you Troy. She might not know you're her father but she still loves you. She talks about you all the time. Please don't dump her. At least come over to my apartment to see her. Or take her out sometime or something. Don't let your hatred for me come between the two of you." She pulled out a tissue from her bag and wiped her eyes.
"I'm not going to just leave Sharpay. I don't hate you either. I strongly dislike you at the moment, but don't hate you. I'm not going to leave Ella. I love her too Sharpay and I wouldn't just dump her, as you oh-so-kindly put it. She's my daughter and I intend to treat her like it. I understand where you're coming from but I'm still pissed that you didn't tell me. Nothing is more important than telling me that I'm going to be a father. I may have been 17 too, but I think I know where my priorities stand." He looked up at Sharpay and sighed. "I don't forgive you Sharpay and I don't know when I can, but just know that I am going to keep working with Ella. I'm going to keep treating her like the princess she is."
Sharpay nodded her head. "I respect your decision about not forgiving me. I fucked up and I know it. I think we should tell Ella that you're her father. She deserves to know and you deserve to properly meet your daughter." Troy gave her a small smile and nodded his head.
"I think so too."
The two of them walked up the stairs and through the kitchen before making their way to the table. Ella was coloring in a coloring book again that they assumed Chad had gotten for her to cheer her up. Sharpay kneeled down in front of Ella and stroked her cheek gently. "Ella I- we have something very important to tell you." Sharpay said softly, gesturing to her and Troy.
Ella put down the crayon in her hand and turned to face Sharpay. "I'm listening." She smiled, folding her arms across her chest. Troy smiled at her and kneeled down next to Sharpay.
"Care Bear, Troy is-"
"King Troy." Ella corrected her, giggling slightly.
Sharpay looked at Troy and smiled before turning back to look at Ella. "King Troy is your daddy." She stated simply, watching as Ella's smile brightened.
"King Troy's my daddy?!" She asked happily, looking at Troy with a grin. Ella saw Troy nod his head, tears coming to his eyes, and giggled. She launched herself at Troy and wrapped her arms around his neck. Troy smiled and started crying as he held Ella tightly to him. He's hugged Ella before but knowing she was his daughter changed everything. It was a different feeling hugging her knowing it was his daughter than just Sharpay's daughter. Sharpay watched from the side and started crying herself. It was her fault that she missed the first four years of Ella's life. Her first word, the first time she walked, the first time she crawled. Everything. He would never be able to get that back and she hurt because she couldn't do anything to change that.
Ella pulled away from Troy and smiled at him. "Does this mean that I can call you King Daddy instead?" she asked innocently, not knowing how Troys' heart fluttered at the question.
Troy nodded his head, not being able to say anything without crying more. "I'd like that." He choked out. Ella smiled and this time nudged her nose with his and giggled. Troy pulled her in for one more hug. "I love you baby girl." He whispered in her ear, placing a kiss to the top of her head.
"Love you too King Daddy."
