"What Dreams are Made of" (The Lizzie Maguire Movie) however the fuck you spell her last name. Lol
"Down" (Something Corporate)--- I love them!
WE'RE BREAKING FREE
"Ryan where are you? Ryan!" Troy yelled.
There was nothing, but darkness. Troy could feel the fear growing inside of him.
"Troy…" A voice called.
"Ryan? Ryan is that you?" Troy called into the darkness.
"Troy…" The voice called again.
"Ryan? Ryan answer me!" He continued.
"Where am I? What is this place? Where's Ryan?" Troy thought to himself.
A bright white light shined into Troy's face. Squinting his eyes so they could adjust, Troy finally saw where he was. He was on the stage. The same stage where he and Gabriella performed Twinkle Towne. Troy lifted up his right hand noticing the microphone. The fear inside of Troy started to subside. He lifted the microphone and sang.
"Have you ever seen such a beautiful night"
Ryan walked out wearing a white dress shirt and black slacks. His hair spiked up and he lifted his microphone and also started to sing.
"I could almost kiss the stars, they're shining so bright."
The ceiling of the auditorium started to break into little pieces just floating into the night sky. The stars shined violently. And Troy continued to sing while gazing heavily into Ryan's eyes.
"When I see you smile and I go oh oh ohh."
Then Ryan.
"I would never want to miss this."
Troy,
"In my heart I know what this is."
Ryan,
"This is what dreams are made of."
Troy,
"This is what dreams are made of."
And together they sang.
"I've got somewhere I belong, I've got somebody to love. This is what dreams are made of…"
Troy leaned in Ryan's face and gently pressed his lips against his.
Troy's P.O.V.
BEEP.. BEEP.. BEEP.. BEEP.. BEEP..
It was a dream… a bittersweet one at least. Fuck I hate alarm clocks. They kill everything. Hitting the clock to turn off the alarm, I got up, still in a daze, and headed towards the shower not even realizing it was Saturday… Like a drop to the head, I realized it was Saturday!
"Yes sleep!" I shrieked.
I jumped for my bed and snoozed for an hour longer.
"But I hear sound echo in the emptiness. All around, but you can't change this loneliness. Look what you've found, I'm falling down. Down, down. Down, down."
That was the ring tone indicating I had a text message. The song was Down, by Something Corporate. Ryan had introduced me to them last year. By far one of the best bands I've ever heard. And his voice was amazing along with his piano playing skills. Wait I have a text! I opened up my phone. It was Sharpay. It said:
Morning sunshine! Hope I didn't wake you. Come to Alb. Hosp. Ryans in rm 482. Hes doin really well & he wnts 2 c u. I knw ill c u in a lil.
Shar.
Closing my phone, I jolted up straight out of bed and ran for the bathroom. Practically ripping off my clothes, I jumped into the shower without adjusting the water temperature. It was cold! I backed away from the water waiting for it to warm up and after what seemed like hours the water finally came to my liking and I cleaned myself wanting to look and smell good for Ryan.
Sharpay's P.O.V.
Ryan's wide awake now. He seems to be doing A LOT BETTER. God I never want to let him out of my site again. I still need to find the asshole that did this to him.
"Ryan?" I asked.
"Yeah?" He said looking out the window.
"Who did it?"
"I told you a thousand times I don't know!"
"Sorry…" I said staring at my lap.
What bothered me the most about the whole attack was how the person painted FAG on his back. Seeing that three lettered word broke my heart. Who could do such a horrible thing. It was just so wrong. So evil. Don't get me wrong the whole thing sickened me, but that part… it just made me want to cry for my brother. I wanted to take the pain for him. He deserves better. He deserves A LOT BETTER! And I will, I repeat I will find that asshole.
Ryan's P.O.V.
I looked over at Sharpay noticing the tears coming down from her eyes. Her fists started to curl. I know what she's thinking about. It's obvious. Mom and Dad were outside the room talking to the doctor. My parents already knew I was gay and they knew before I told them. Of course dad took it horribly, but he began to accept me for who I was and who I will be. My parents walked in and dad began to talk.
"I've got some good news buddy." He said.
"What?" I asked.
"The doctor said there was no major injury and you had just a minor concussion. You'll be able to go home tomorrow."
"Cool…" I said not really caring.
All I wanted was Troy to be here. The only thing I wanted right now was Troy.
"Honey" My mother said, "Me and your father are going to go. We have a meeting. Do you mind?"
"No. It's fine mom." I said.
"Okay sweetie. I love you and we'll see you later." She said.
"Love you buddy. Feel better." Dad said walking out the door waving goodbye.
"Bye guys. Love you too."
"God I'm bored." I said.
Sharpay looked up at me trying to wipe away her silent tears. I guess there's not much to do in a hospital. Ugh I wish Troy was here.
It was as if on cue, Troy barged through the door. He seemed a little tired. Who cares it was Troy!
Troy's P.OV.
I hate hospitals. It's that creep smell that gets me. It doesn't smell bad, but there's like death lingering in the air. I looked to my left looking at the room numbers.
"Room 475, 477, 479, 481... Where the hell are the even numbered ones?" I mumbled to myself. I look to my right seeing that they were on the right. I giggled to myself.
When I found room 482 I ran in. As soon as I entered the room, Ryan's face lit up. He still looked flawless as usual. I ran up to him and ran my hand through his hair, while with my other hand gripping his hand. My head leaned in slowly to his and our lips pressed against each others'.
I broke from the kiss slowly and looked him into the eyes and said,
"I love you…"
"I love you too."
"Who did it Ryan?" I said forgetting that Sharpay was in the room.
"I don't know." Ryan said weakly.
His face turned away and gazed out the window once more. I kissed him on the cheek and sat next too Sharpay.
"Did that answer your question?" I asked Sharpay.
"What question?" She asked.
"Yesterday you asked me if I loved your brother. And that's my answer."
She smiled and nodded.
The day went by pretty fast. The three of us just talking about random stuff, trying to avoid the topic of who did it. The funny thing was that I had a feeling Ryan did know, but wasn't telling. It wouldn't matter, with Sharpay by my side, we would find out in no time.
The sun was starting to set and Ryan had already fell asleep. Man I'm tired.
"So…" I said.
"Troy?"
"Yeah?"
"What's going to happen Monday?"
"What do you mean?"
"Between you and Ryan. What's going to happen?"
"I don't know…"
What was going to happen? That was a good question. Something to sleep on. I felt Sharpay rest her head on mine. Good call. Sleep. Something we all needed. My eyelids started to grow heavy and I eventually dozed off.
I woke up to Ryan's parents talking to the doctor. I looked towards the bed and Ryan was gone. Where is he? Sharpay was still asleep on my shoulder, but where is Ryan? Ryan's father comes up to me and asks,
"Troy, do you know who did this to Ryan?"
"I asked him, but he says he doesn't know. Me and Sharpay are going to try and find out at school."
"Okay. Please tell us as soon as you find out. We are talking about a major lawsuit here."
I nodded and heard the bathroom door open. It was Ryan. He closed the door, which woke up Sharpay, and walked towards us. Ryans dad smiled at him and walked out the room.
"You guys ready to go?" He asked.
Sharpay and I both nodded and got up. Ryan's dad walked in and walked towards me.
"Troy I have a favor to ask if you don't mind?"
"Anything Mr. Evans."
"Do you mind taking Ryan and Sharpay home?"
"No, not at all. I'd love too."
"Thank you so much Troy."
"You welcome."
The three of us walked out of the hospital and headed towards my car. Ryan got into the front and Sharpay in the back. While driving to the Evan's manor, it was awkwardly silent in the car. It seemed live forever when we got to the their home. Finally pulling into their drive way, Sharpay got out of the car walked towards the house. I kissed Ryan on the lips saying,
"I'll see you tomorrow. I have a surprise for you."
"What is it?" he asked.
"If I told you, it wouldn't be a surprise would it? Oh and tell Sharpay I'm taking you guys to school tomorrow okay?"
He gave me a huge smile and said, "Okay. I love you."
"I love you too babe." I said kissing him again.
"See you tomorrow morning." He said closing the door and waved goodbye.
I blew him a kiss and went into reverse pulling out of his driveway. After exciting the Evan's manor I headed home for a long, well deserved rest.
The day went by pretty fast and night came quickly. I was nervous. Tomorrow was going to be a big day, not only for Ryan, but for me. I'm going to go through with this. I have too. It's the only way to show him how much I love him. Heading towards my room, my dad called me. I walked towards his bedroom.
"How's Ryan" he asked.
"He's doing a lot better. He's going to school tomorrow."
"That's good. Look Troy, I know I probably have no right telling you what to do when it comes to this situation, but I want you to protect him. If you think what happened to him on Friday was be, I'm sure it'll be worse."
"I know. I'll keep an eye on him."
"If anything happens, or if anyone says anything, I want you to come get me alright?"
"I will."
"Goodnight sport."
"G'nite dad."
I can't believe how much he cares for him. For me and him. I headed for my room once again and just jumped on my bed, closing my eyes drifting off to sleep instantly…
The Next Day
I woke up at 5:30am Sharp. I showered and picked out the perfect outfit today. I had too look good for Ryan. It amazes me how much I care about how I look for him, but when ever I hear his name or think of him, it always puts a smile on my face. Today was a perfect day. Nothing could ruin it. Nothing. I had to be strong. Running to my car, excited about seeing Ryan this morning, I got in and started it up. When I pulled into Ryan's driveway, the twins come out and walk towards my car.
It was pretty silent in the car though, but I could tell Ryan was excited. He wanted to know his surprise. I looked at Sharpay through the mirror and our eyes met. It was weird, it was like she knew what I was going to do. Well it was pretty obvious. I really had no choice either way. Well I did, but I picked the right one.
Finally arriving at school, I parked and we started for the doors. Before opening the glass doors I said to Ryan,
"Ryan, you ready for your surprise?"
He smiled and nodded yes.
The three of us walked in, everyone was staring at him. News got around fast about what had happened. But that didn't matter. The butterflies in my stomach started crashing into the walls inside of me even harder. I'm nervous, well here it goes.
I grabbed Ryan's hand and he looked at me, then down at our fingers which were now interlocked.
"Surprised.." I whispered.
Ryan smiled and then blushed.
We were now walking in the middle of the hallway. Everyone's eyes were fixed on us and out interlocked hands. I didn't care, but now was the time to end all rumors and tell everyone the truth about Ryan and I. I stopped and pulled Ryan towards me. Wrapping my arms around his lower torso and I kissed him. I could hear the whispers and the surprised gasps, but I didn't care. Kissing him so passionately, that I'm sure that everyone else around us could feel it. Our tongues intertwined and my hands went lower. After what seemed like 2 seconds, which was really about 5 minutes, I said out loud so everyone could hear me,
"I love you Ryan Evans."
"And I love you too Troy Bolton."
Sharpay just stood their with a smile on her face. She was happy that her brother had found someone to love him. Probably happy that she had someone else to look over him too. She looked once more and walked to her class. And we kissed once more before heading to our first period class and not caring what everyone else thought.
End of Chapter
Yeah I know it's a long ass chapter, but I wanted to write the school scene.
