Chapter 6: GP

On the sixth day, Sharpay woke up to four things. One, her hair still smelled like chocolate, which wasn't necessarily a bad thing. Two everything was quiet. No one was barging into wake her up or anything. Three Troy wasn't there in his couch bed. And four, the digital clock next to her bed, on the bedside table read, 12:00 pm.

Sharpay rolled over, clueless. She stretched, yawned and stumbled out of bed. In her pajamas, she made her way towards Gabriella and Taylor's bedroom which was messy, since they had their food fight last night. But apart from the food pieces, she could find no one. She dipped her finger in some chocolate and licked it off. 'Mmm, still tastes good.' Sharpay thought.

She checked out the next room, which was Kelsi by herself. Kelsi wasn't there either. There were no notes, no nothing. Sharpay walked out of Kelsi's room and entered the room across from her room which was Ryan, Chad and Zeke's room. There was no one in there, it was just a messy room. A really, really messy room. It was in fact, messier than Gabriella and Taylor's room, and they hosted a food fight, for crying out loud.

Sharpay exited their room and walked back to her and Troy's room. It was so quiet and the sun shine pouring through the window was sorta creeping Sharpay out. Sharpay shrugged and decided to take a bath, maybe they left her to have some Sharpay time. And maybe the others were gone to have their own insert name time. Sharpay put her mind to ease and concluded that that had to be the answer.

She got into the tub. IT was hot, all ready to relax her.

After a couple of hours

Sharpay woke up. Her skin felt really wrinkly. Ew. Why didn't anyone tell her that the water was now cold, and that her hair didn't smell like chocolate anymore? Oh yeah, they were out and about, excluding Sharpay and doing something fun by themselves. 'Whoa, when did those thoughts kick in?" Sharpay mentally asked herself. 'Since forever. You were just to caught up in this new act to realize." Her thought sneered at her.

"Whatever. They're probably out having some to me time." Sharpay said out loud, getting dressed casually and walking downstairs to the diner.

But when she got to the diner, that's when the big surprise kicked in. Her friends were all there, laughing and having a good time, not to mention eating good food. Gabriella was the first to notice and immediately stopped eating, dropped her fork and called out Sharpay's name, which made everyone else do the same. Sharpay ignored them, turned around and walked away.

"I knew it. They don't care about me. They just wanted to get rid of me so that they could have some fun to themselves! That's it, I don't give a heck, I'm going back." Sharpay said out loud.

That meant two things. One meant that she was going back to her snotty self and two meant that she was going home. She didn't care about the promise she made with Ryan or Troy, it was like, they had broken it first. It seemed that way to Sharpay. She shrugged and took the lift back upstairs to grab her things. Troy who felt pretty guilty, for not even bothering to write a note, ran up the stairs and reached there before Sharpay's lift dinged.

"Sharpay, wait. I can explain, we can explain." Troy said breathlessly.

"Explain what?" Sharpay hugged and snapped.

"Why we were there without you." When Troy said this, Sharpay felt more hurt.

"So you people were there without me!" Sharpay stepped away from the lift.

"No. It's not like that." She threw open the room door.

"Then what is it like?" Sharpay turned around, when she heard a ding from the lift.

"Sharpay!" Gabriella and Taylor called out.

"What?" Sharpay asked with irritation clear in her voice.

"We can explain." Taylor motioned to the group.

"Explain what?" Sharpay snapped.

"Why we were there."

"Nice try, but I know why you were there. You just wanted to leave me behind and have some true quality time with the original gang." Sharpay snapped angrily.

"No, it's not like that." Troy tried to reason.

"Yeah whatever." Sharpay scoffed, "I'm going."

"No Sharpay, you can't." Ryan called out.

"Watch me." Sharpay shrugged.

"Fine then, break the promise and give us permission to bug you all the time then." Ryan said simply.

"Please just stay with us. There is only one day left." Gabriella pleaded.

"I'll give you my allowance for next month!" Ryan bribed.

"Yeah and mine." Zeke also bribed, followed by Kelsi and Gabriella.

Sharpay took the option into mind. If she was to stay for, what? A day and a half, and she would be rich the upcoming month. She liked the idea. She was still frowning in disapprovement but she gruffly nodded.

"Yes!" They all slapped each other high-fives.

"You all retarded or something?" Sharpay asked rudely at the sight.

With that she slammed the door to her room and locked it.

"Uh, can I sleep with you guys tonight?" Troy asked the guys.

"Uh-huh, sure. There's still a bed left." Chad said petting his best friend's back.

While inside the room, Sharpay lay on her bed, tears running down her face.

"BFF my ass." Sharpay bitterly cried into the pillow.
