I totally could've posted this chapter two weeks ago, but I was vacationing in New York :D

& did you guys see on Zac on Saturday Night Live, on the 11th? He was so adorable :] Although, my opinion is biased, because I always think he's adorable.

Also, did anyone see '17 Again'? Did you like it? I saw it on opening day. I thought it was alright. It probably could've been a lot better. But I'd still consider it a good movie, because I got to stare at Zac for an hour and a half :D

And I have 93 reviews on this story, as of now. So hopefully, after this chapter, I get to 100! :D

Disclaimer: Okay, here we go for the 17th time; I don't own High School Musical. Or Sharpay. Or Gabriella. Or Troy (*sighs* some dreams just don't come true :'[). And blah, blah, whatever, whatever. -End of disclaimer-

"You should know, I really don't like Gabriella," Sharpay tells Troy as they sit in the cafeteria, at school, during lunchtime.

"I already knew that." "And it's okay, because I don't like her much anymore, either."

"She asked me to break up with you…"

Troy looked at her incredulously. "Are you going to?"

"No. Of course not," Sharpay nearly shouted. The thought of actually breaking up with Troy had never crossed her mind.

"Oh, okay. That's good. Because if you were, I might've started crying or something," Troy admitted.

"Boys don't cry, Trojan."

"Haven't you seen Ryan cry?" Troy asked.

"Oh, he doesn't count. Sometimes I'm not even sure if Ryan is a boy."

"Hey! I can hear you!" Ryan called out from his seat the opposite of the table that Troy and Sharpay were sitting at.

"Oh, hey Ryan," Troy said, noticing him for the first time. "When did you get here?"

"I can hear you guys talking about me," said Ryan.

"We weren't talking about you. If you were really any good at eavesdropping, you would know that" Sharpay pointed out.

"I was not eavesdropping. I'm sitting less than two feet away from you, and it's not exactly like you were whispering."

"See, Ry? This is why we question if you're a boy or not. You're much too whiny."

"I'm not whiny."

"You are a bit whiny," Troy interjects.

"Shut up, Troy."

"Don't talk to my Trojan like that," Sharpay scolds her brother. Then turns to Troy and says "Come on. Let's go talk about Ryan somewhere else." Then she grabs his hand and they proceed to walk out of the cafeteria.

"Oh, so you were talking about me?" Ryan calls after them. "And I am not whiny!"

--

"Hey Troy," Gabriella says, when she visits him at his locker at after school.

Troy didn't respond.

"Troy. Is there a certain reason you've been avoiding me ever since you started dating Sharpay?" she asked.

"Yes. Because you are insane," Troy muttered.

"But we used to be best friends?"

"That was before you became insane."

"It's not my fault that you got jealous when I started dating Jason." (AN- notice how she doesn't defend herself when Troy calls her insane. it means she's aware of her insanity ;])

"I was never —"

"But it's okay, because I dumped him. So we can be together now," Gabriella said, grabbing Troy's hand, only to have him pull it away.

"What part of 'I'm with Sharpay' do you not understand?"

And so then, Gabriella, out of nowhere, smashed her lips against Troy's. (AN- yuck. haha x])

Troy then struggles to push her away, but not before a certain blonde-haired girl walks by at that exact moment and witnesses the kiss. She then proceeds to run away crying, before either Troy or Gabriella notice she was even there.

This ending of this chapter made me sad :'( *cries a river of tears* I'm sure, we all know who the 'certain blonde-haired girl' is. (Hint: It's not Ryan :D)

And so you guys know, the next chapter I post will probably be the last. *cries another river* :[

Sorry this chapter is so short. The next one will be longer, I promise.
