Author's Note: Thank you to everyone who reviewed chapter 3. Yes, Sharpay was a huge slut in that chapter. I wanted her to come off as one because it worked for the story. Oh and I'm changing the genre to Romance/Humor. There's not really going to be any drama in here. That's really cliché and I promised you guys and myself no cliché plot lines. So please enjoy chapter 4!


We sat there on the grass in complete silence. I looked down at the ground. I could still feel Ryan's soft lips on mine. It felt so good even though he didn't kiss me back. I looked up to see that his face still had the same shocked expression on it. It looked like he was trying to form words but nothing was coming out. A few more moments had passed before anything was said.

"What was that" He asked.

"That was a kiss. C'mon Ryan, I know you're not stupid." I said laughing a little bit, trying to lighten the mood.

He sighed and rolled his eyes. "I know what it was but I'm confused as to why you did it."

Oh crap! I have to think of an excuse! Quick Troy think. Got it! "Uh…I was caught in the moment?"

He stared at me, for what seemed like forever, before laughing. And I was completely confused.

"What's so funny?" I asked.

"Ha-ha! You're gay aren't you?" He asked, still laughing.

"Uh…yeah. But you shouldn't be laughing because you're gay too." I said pointing at him.

"Well duh! Of course I'm gay." He said calming down a bit.

"So…?"

"So, I just never would have thought that you, the basketball star, the manly-man, Mr. Popularity, would ever be gay. It's just so bizarre, that's why I laughed." He pointed out.

I don't know if I should be flattered or insulted.

"So you never thought that someone like me could be gay?"

He had to think before answering.

"Well…now that I think about yes. I take back what I just said." He said, I was about to say something but he continued, "You know Troy, it all makes sense now. Sharpay and Gabriella were basically throwing themselves at you and you didn't do a thing but push them away. If you were straight then you would be all over them."

"You're smart." I said grinning. I got up off the ground and pulled Ryan up with me. We brushed ourselves off and we ended up locking eyes again. "Do you like me, Ryan?"

"Troy…" But I cut him off by pressing my lips against his. It felt like he was about to kiss me back when he gently pushed me away. "Ok, I know that you like me and I like you too…as a matter of fact I've liked you for a long time."

"So what's wrong?"

"I don't know you Troy." He said simply.

"You do know me." I said looking at him like he was crazy.

"Well, I know you but I don't know you." He said pressing his index finger against my chest.

"So you're saying that you want to hang out some more." I asked.

"Well, yeah." He nodded.

"Well, I'm all for that. You get to know me better and I get to know you better." I said moving my hand in between us.

"Good. So we should get back." He said walking away and it took me a few seconds to realize it because it was so random. I ran to catch up with him.

"So, when we do get to know each other better than we can start dating?" I asked hopefully.

He glanced over at me grinning and said, "We'll see."

He was totally teasing me but I didn't mind. It was cute…he's cute.


I walked in my house around 11:30 grinning like a madman. My mom and dad were sitting in the living room watching a late night movie. They looked over at me from the screen and smiled.

"Hey sweetie, did you have fun over at Sharpay and Ryan's?" My mom asked.

"Definitely." I said still smiling.

"Well, that's good, son" My dad said. I nodded and walked upstairs to my room. I took of my clothes and replaced them with some flannel pants and an East High T-shirt. I couldn't get Ryan off of my head. I actually have a chance with him. My biggest crush does like me back but wants to take things slow. Well, I guess good-no great things are worth the wait.


Author's Note: Alright, what did you think? Not as long as the last one but it was something right? This was my favorite chapter so far to write but it did feel a little rushed. This may be my last chapter posted until August because I go to Disney World this Friday and I don't get back until the first week in August. But, I may post another chapter before I leave. Cross your fingers. Well please review and tell me what you think. Thanks!
