Chapter 6 – The Reunion part 2
Troy and Gabriella were slowly leaning in when they heard a thud causing them to look away. They both looked in shock to see Ryan collapsed on the floor.
"Ryan!" Gabriella ran over to Ryan seeing his very pale complexion and she knew from the look this was bad. Gabriella quickly bent down to check his pulse and looked at Troy. "Call an ambulance Troy. His pulse is racing." Troy nodded and pulled out his cell as Gabriella looked at everyone else who looked at Ryan worriedly. "Everyone can you please give him some space." Gabriella then looked at Sharpay's scared face. "He'll be ok Sharpay. Trust me I know what is wrong."
"Gabi what's going on with him?" Sharpay asked as Gabriella shook her head knowing it wasn't the right place for her to tell her. Moments later paramedics arrived and checked Ryan over before lifting him onto a stretcher.
"Miss do you know what could be wrong with him?" Gabriella closed her eyes knowing she had no choice but wished all the others weren't around listening.
"He has leukaemia. I'm his nurse in charge and a friend." Gabriella heard several gasps and the paramedic looked at her sadly. He just nodded as the wheeled him out of the gym, Gabriella and the gang following.
"You need to ride with him so that you can fill us in on everything." Gabriella nodded as she turned her head to the others while they loaded Ryan into the ambulance.
"Why? Why didn't you tell me? I had a right to know my own brother, my twin was sick!" Sharpay screamed as Gabriella looked at her.
"Ryan wouldn't tell you because he didn't want you to all worry." The paramedic nodded his head at Gabriella. "I have to go."
"We'll meet you at the hospital." Troy told her as she smiled and climbed into the ambulance.
An hour later and Gabriella was still sitting in the waiting room with the rest of the gang (Troy, Sharpay, Zeke, Taylor, Chad, Jason and Kelsi) waiting for news. Gabriella was being held tightly by Troy who had promised her once again she wasn't going to do this on her own anymore. Sharpay and all the others were still sitting in shock at the fact Ryan had leukaemia and they had no idea. No one had really spoke the whole time they were waiting for news. Gabriella, from her position leaning against Troy, looked around at all their friends. Sharpay was leaning against Zeke with a completely blank look on her face while Taylor and Kelsi had a few tears running down their faces while Chad and Jason rubbed their backs soothingly. Gabriella could feel Troy playing with her hair with the hand that was around her shoulder as she played with his class ring that he still wore.
"Gabriella?" Gabriella looked up and saw Ryan's doctor in front of them. Turns out when she called him to tell him what happened he was able to come right away since he was visiting family in Albuquerque.
"Hi Dr Willow. How's Ryan?" Gabriella asked he looked back at the people behind her. Gabriella noticed this and spoke up again. "Dr Willow this is Sharpay Evans, Ryan's twin sister and all our friends." The doctor nodded before continuing.
"Ryan collapsed I think because he is so weak. I'm putting him on some medication which will need to be given twice a day and hopefully it should help a little with the tiredness and help him feel better for a few days here and there." The doctor explained as Gabriella nodded. She took the medication bottle from the doctor before he walked back not before telling her she was welcome to go see him now and what room he was in. Gabriella looked back at Sharpay who sat on her own not wanting any of the others around her.
"Sharpay?" Gabriella spoke softly kneeling in front of her. "Why don't you come in with me?" Gabriella suggested.
"Are you sure?" Gabriella nodded as she stood back up. Gabriella gave the others a smile before she walked off to find Ryan's room with Sharpay behind her. Walking in Gabriella walked in and saw Ryan lying there but eyes open.
"Do you try to worry me on purpose?" Gabriella said in a teasing manner as Ryan turned to look at her but frowned when he saw Sharpay.
"You know don't you?" Sharpay nodded as she walked over to the bed and sat in the chair next to him.
"Why didn't you tell me before?" Sharpay asked as Ryan shrugged.
"I didn't believe I had done anything wrong when we fell out so I was too stubborn to call and I've seen how much it hurts Gabi and I didn't want you to go through all of this too. It was selfish and I know I shouldn't have let my ego get in the way. I should have called. I'm sorry." Ryan told her as she smiled.
"Don't. You have nothing to be sorry for. I'm the one who should be sorry. You were made to feel like you couldn't come to me or anyone in the family because of the way I treated you just for some guy back then and I'm so sorry Ryan. I would do anything to take it all back and have all the time we lost back.
I regret that for 10 years I could have spent with my brother that I will never be able to get back since he is dying. Ryan I don't want you to die." Sharpay stood up and sat on the bed next to, Ryan pulling Sharpay into a tight hug as he rubbed her back while she cried into his chest. Ryan had never seen his sister cry apart from when their grandma who they were close to died. Ryan looked at Gabriella slightly shocked at his sisters actions but all Gabriella did was shrug.
"Sharpay I promise I won't keep things from you again and I wish we could too get back all the time we lost but since we can't we will just have to make up for that now." Sharpay pulled away and smiled.
"Ryan." Gabriella sternly looked at him as he sighed.
"Sharpay there is something else you need to know." Looking Ryan in the eye, Sharpay urged him to tell her. "I've only got about 6 months left max." Sharpay gasped as Gabriella stood back watching knowing how hard this must be for Ryan telling his sister he was dying.
