Back to the story, its boring but important, I just want you guys to sort of get the idea of what Sharpay is like. She is going to play an important part (But not like some of you are thinking.)

Thanks for the ideas last week by the way, I read them put them together, twisted some parts about and im fine now! So Thanks.

Review!

"I'll be over soon!" The voice said immediately.

I walked upstairs and into my room, I lay on my bed and just cried some more.

I swear that's all I'm doing today.

I don't how long it was, but I heard a knock come from the door, I slowly stood up and walked to the top of the stairs.

He saw me. He rushed up the stairs and pulled me into a hug.

"Gabi shhhh its okay, its okay I'm here." He said in a soothing voice.

"He…called…" I managed to choke out.

"Who called Gabs?"

"Br-Br-Brian…"I sobbed.

Chad froze, he looked at me.

"I thought you weren't going to answer?"

I shrugged. "I know, but I was so stupid!"

"What did he say."

I bit my lip and sat on the top step of the stairs.

"Gabs…" Chad said. "What did he say?"

I shook my head and sighed.

"He said, he knows where I am…."

"How…you didn't -"

"God no!" I interrupted. "Why would I tell him?"

"Then how does he know…?" Chad asked sitting down next to me and grabbing my hands.

"He said she told him."

"Who told him?"

"I don't know!!!" I cried.

"Okay, Okay calm down, shh its okay." Chad cradled me in his arms. "Its okay!"

"No, its not!!"

"Okay, okay its not okay!"

"Chad!!"

"I don't know what to say!!!" Chad whined.

"You're no use…" I moaned and walked downstairs, Chad following me.

"Gabs listen, do you know anybody, that might have told him?" Chad asked.

I shook my head. "No…"

"Okay, this is going to be harder than I thought…"

I groaned and walked back into my living room.

My phone started ringing again. "Oh my god!!" I screeched.

Chad picked up the phone, "Its okay its an unknown number."

"Well then you answer it!"

"Fine." He told me and flipped my phone open. "Hello?"

I held my breath, then Chad rolled his eyes. "What do you want Sharpay?"

It was my turn to roll my eyes this time and groaned to myself.

"Gabbys not here right now…" Chad said into the phone.

I picked up a cushion from the couch and hugged it tightly to my chest.

"Why have I got her phone??" Chad asked looked at me, I shrugged and fell onto the couch.

"Err, I don't know." Chad said. "How have you got her number?"

I started playing with my fingers as Chad had his conversation with Sharpay, gosh did I get bored easily.

"Yeah, yeah, oh no im going through a tunnel…" Chad shouted into the phone. "cant hear yo - " He hung up the phone and I starred at him.

"You're going through a tunnel?" I asked.

Chad nodded. "Aren't you?"

I laughed to myself quietly as Chad got up.

"Where are you going?"

"Make some Mac and Cheese." Chad answered.

"Why?" I followed him.

"I'm hungry, and I hate my Moms cooking."

I raised an eyebrow and Chad sighed. "Oh, come on Gabs, who looks at Mac and Cheese and says "I think I'll add nuts to that?" "

"You…."

Chad sighed again. "That's not the point, we're talking about my Moms cooking. She doesn't add nuts….hey, do you have nuts?"

I rolled my eyes again and pointed to the cupboard.

"Yes!!" Chad cheered.

I watched Chad as he prepared his Mac and Cheese. I picked up a spoon and threw it off him.

"Hey!!" he said.

"How can you act so cool!! My ex boyfriend just told me he knows where I am and you're making Mac and Cheese!!"

"With nuts…"

"Shut up!"

"Sorry…"

I sighed and sat on the kitchen island.

"Gabs.." Chad began. "He might be bluffing.."

"Why would he bluff? He keeps asking, he was telling the truth, I know he was."

Chad shrugged, "I don't know,"

"I groaned as someone knocked on my door.

Chad looked at me. "You don't think…"

I shook my head. "No, I mean he couldn't…could he..?"

Chad walked into the hall and I followed him, he reached for the door handle and pulled it open.

"Sharpay!!"

I sighed, Great, she's worse than Brian.

"I thought you were going through a tunnel?" Sharpay said to Chad.

Chad looked at her. "I drove home fast.."

"Oh, Okay, Gabriella!!" She screeched.

"Hey," I said slowly.

She rushed up to me and threw her arms round me in a hug. Over her back a quickly mouthed "Help Me!" To Chad, who smiled and folded his arms. "No." He mouthed back.

I rolled my eyes and let go of Sharpay.

"What are you doing here!" I asked.

"Oh, well I thought I'd come talk to your Mom, about us getting together sometime!"

"Hey, isn't your Mom-" Chad started.

"Out! She's gone shopping!" I finished smiling.

"At this time..?" Sharpay asked.

"Grocery Shopping." I told her. "For food. Obviously."

"No, I read the note in the kitchen your Mom wont be back until-" Chad began again.

"Late." I said, throwing Chad a dirty look. "She wont be back until late.""Right…" Chad said, raising an eyebrow, "Well I'm off to make food." He wondered off into the Kitchen, leaving me and Sharpay by ourselves.

"So…." I started.

"Lets go sit!" She announced walking into the living room.

"Lets sit.." I said to myself, as I followed her.

She sat down on my couch and crossed her right leg over her left, then place hand on top of them.

"So your Mom will be back when."

I sighed, in two weeks. "Late, you should just go home."

"Don't be silly, I want to talk to your Mom tonight!" Sharpay smiled.

Well, that's going to be difficult. I said to myself.

"Of course you do." I smiled back. I sat down. "So, tell me about yourself."

"Well," Sharpay beamed, this was obviously and good subject. "I grew up in Paris."

"The country?" I asked interrupting.

Sharpay rolled her eyes. "Duh, well I lived their until was 7, then I moved here."

"Is that it.." I asked confused.

"Oh I have a twin brother too, Ryan."

"Oh cool." I said, I feel sorry for him.

"So, we should have a sleep-""Wait, how do you know where I live." I suddenly asked. I never thought until now. I didn't give her directions.

She blushed suddenly but turned away. "Oh, you know." She reached into her bag and suddenly started playing with her cell phone.

"You know what, I have to go." She said. I looked at her.

"Really?" I said.

She nodded, "Yeah." She put her cell up to her ear and started biting her finger.

"I thought you were staying."

"Some other time, yeah?" She said. "Oh. Gabs, you don't have a boyfriend do you?"

I shook my head. "No, why?"

"No reason." She smiled. " Chad's your only close guy friend?"

I nodded. "yeah…but why."

She shook her head again and beamed. "No reason, I still want that sleepover Gabriella, talk to you soon!"

I walked her to the door and starred after her in shock.

"Hello," I heard her say into the cell. "Yeah I'm here, Nope none…."

Her voice died off as she walked down the sidewalk to her pink convertible.

Questions flooded my head. What the hell was that about.

"Oh, you got her to leave." Chad said coming to the door.

"She's a strange girl." I said to Chad.

Chad nodded. "Close to Troy though…"

My stomach did back flips when he said Troy, but I shrugged it off. She's close to Troy? "She is?"

Chad nodded. "Yeah, but then again, Troy isn't exactly the brightest bulb around either."

I snorted. "What? And your so smart?"

Chad looked offended. "I'm smart."

"Dude, I think Troy is brighter than you." I said.

"Dude, how would you know." He mimicked.

"Because, I doubt Troy would have Mac, Cheese and Nuts." I said patting his cheek. "That's something only you would think of."

"Hey, I resent that."

"I bet you do!"
