Chapter 4: The Proposal

"No matter what, it's always better to be honest and express your true feelings, instead of giving false or mixed signals."

Troy and Sharpay kept seeing each other after the reunion. They decided to become friends and start over. Troy started to ask Sharpay out, as in a "date" again. Ryan and Gabriella also started to figure things out. Gabriella admitted that she also likes Ryan since their senior year on East High. Troy and Sharpay, and, Ryan and Gabriella became couples at the end of the year.

1 year after …

All went well for Troy and Sharpay. They are happy that after all the dilemmas they have taken for the past year, they have still proven that they are meant for each other. The gang is happy as well. They are happy to know that their friends are happy too. All of them started to hang out again too. Just like Wildcats, back in high school.

Sharpay woke up lazily. She then realized that it's her and Troy's anniversary. She quickly took a bath then she put on her favorite outfit. She wore the cute pink dress with a pair of pink high heels and decided to add some accessories.

'Do I look good already?' she thought.

She grabbed her things then quickly go downstairs.

"Ryan?" Sharpay exclaimed.

"In the kitchen!"

Sharpay walked in the kitchen and saw Ryan finishing his breakfast.

"Good morning sis! I have to go."

"Where are you going?" Sharpay asked.

"I have work. Why? Is there anything wrong?" Ryan asked.

"Nothing's wrong. I'm just excited because Troy will take me to a fancy dinner later. He also told me that he'll have a very nice surprise!" Sharpay said happily.

Ryan smirked. He knows what Troy's surprise is. The Wildcats know everything Troy has planned and their mission is to keep all the details as a secret for Sharpay to be surprise and happy. Troy has planned this for a very long time. In just few hours, it will finally happen.

"I'm happy for you, Shar! I really have to go. Happy anniversary!"

"Thank you Ryan! Bye. Take care."

Ryan was about to leave when he remembered something.

"I almost forgot Troy send something for you. It's in the living room. Have fun Shar!

Sharpay arrived at the restaurant where she and Troy will celebrate their anniversary. She opened the door slowly and realized that there are no customers. The tables and chairs were also gone. Something caught her eye, she opened the red curtain. She then saw a table on the center, flowers scattered everywhere, pink roses hanging on the ceiling and Troy. He appeared out of nowhere. He's holding a bouquet of pink and blue roses. There he was, with his famous smile that melts her heart. Time stopped when Troy saw Sharpay. She's breathtaking, wonderful, and inevitably beautiful.

"This is for you. You're so beautiful. I love you Shar. Happy anniversary!" Troy handed her the flowers.

"Thank you Troy. You're the best. I love you too." Sharpay gave Troy a peck on his lips.

They both sit down and ate their food. Sharpay looked at Troy. He seems so nervous.

"Is there something wrong?" Sharpay asked.

Troy stood up. He gets the small black box from his pocket and the knelt to the ground, in front of Sharpay. He opened the box containing a pink diamond ring.

"Sharpay, I know that I break your heart back in high school because I never said goodbye to you and I just disappeared after our graduation. I admit my mistakes and I'm sorry for that. I truly am sorry. That's because I never say goodbye to someone I love because no matter how hard I try to forget, that love will always find its way back. I got accepted at University of California. That's a thousand miles away from here, from you."

Sharpay is so shocked. Tears began to flow from her eyes. This time, it's tears of joy.

"I really really love you Shar. I don't know what will happen if you stay out of my life. I want to spend the rest of my life with you. Will you marry me?"

Sharpay stood up and just nodded her head. That is the best speech she had ever heard in her whole life. Troy is the sweetest man on earth. Troy slipped the ring on Sharpay's finger. They hugged each other and they shared a passionate kiss.

Hello everbody! I'm sorry if I just updated the story. Troypaylover left a review saying that the story is confusing because it doesn't fit the summary. Well that's because we're not yet at that part. That's why I'm skipping a year in the story so I can finally write the amnesia part. I hope that you're not confused with my story anymore. There's one more chapter left before the plot starts. Sorry.

I really appreciate and love your reviews and suggestions. Thank you so much for reading!

PS: The next chapter is the wedding part.
