Hey guys. Thank you for the reviews. We loved them. Here is the last chapter for you guys, and sorry about the wait, school start have been crazy, and we don't even talk anymore, since we go to different schools now, so we're on MSN at completely different times.

Epilogue.
"Sharpay are you done soon? The guys are waiting for us, I am sure. You have been in there for a half hour soon!" Gabriella whined. All four had planned to play tennis together. They were only waiting for Sharpay to get ready. And as usual she took like forever to get done.
"You can't rush perfection. Troy can't see me when I look like shit!" Sharpay yelled, through the door.
"Sharpay, you always look perfect no matter what. Even if you are wearing a baggy shirt and sweatpants. Get your butt out here! Like now!" Gabriella almost yelled back.
Sharpay opened the door and popped her head out, "Sorry, Gabby. I am coming now." She spoke and stepped all out. She was wearing a pink tennis skirt and a white sports top. Her hair was pulled into a ponytail. In her hand was her pink racquet, "Are you ready too?"
"Yeah…" Gabriella replied, scanning her own, simple tennis outfit. It was one of Sharpay's old, but at least it wasn't pink, "I'm ready, let's get out there."
They stepped out of the changing rooms and into the bright sun. They could see the guys on the tennis court, so they hurried over there, jumping excitingly like little girls.
Troy and Ryan approached each a girl, and scooped their girlfriends for 4 months into their arms. Ryan greeted Gabriella with a light kiss on the lips, while Troy spun Sharpay around in a circle, her pink skirt flowing.
"Put her down Troy, she's mooning us!" Ryan whined, covering his eyes, so he couldn't see his sister's butt.
"Sorry," Troy laughed, "Let's play then, shall we? You guys still need to teach me this game."
"It's alright," Sharpay said, as she pulled him towards the court, "Gabby sucks too, so Ryan and I will just play if you guys can't."
"Yeah, 'cause that's fun." Gabriella sarcastically replied, moving her racquet into the air, to see if she could hit a ball Ryan threw her – she just missed.
"Yeah, so are your tennis skills." Sharpay shot back, as she was showing Troy a regular move on the other side of the net. That was how it went on for a little while. Sharpay tried to teach Troy the basic things, but they somehow ended making out in stead, and Ryan tried to teach Gabriella some moves too. He was in for making out as well, but Gabriella was determined to beat Sharpay, so she didn't want to waste any time.
About 20 minutes later, they started their game. By then Taylor and Chad had settled down to watch from afar, Taylor keeping track on the game, like a referee. Chad understood zero of it all, but he had fun seeing Troy miss every ball, and Sharpay yell at him.
It went better for Gabriella and Ryan, but still, Sharpay was good enough to keep a tie, though Troy was hopeless. He simply gave up in the end, and sat down beside Chad, just looking at his girlfriend as she moved around on the court. He found it rather enjoyable, because her skirt flew above her thighs, and gave him a nice view.
"Ha, and I get two points!" Gabriella exclaimed, jumping excitingly up and down, her hair bouncing.
"We get two points, honey." Ryan corrected her, taking a sip of the water that Chad handed him.
"Yeah of course, we did." Gabriella smiled, padding him lightly on the arm, before turning back to the game again, facing Sharpay.
"I think I'm gonna sit down." Ryan told the others, sitting down next to Troy, "She won't even notice I'm not there. How come the both of them are so competitive?"
"I guess Sharpay really did change Gabriella at some points of her personality." Taylor mumbled, as she watched the ball fly back and forth between the two girls, "It's scary, but okay, I guess…"
"Should we go get some ice cream?" Troy suggested, now getting bored with the game as well. It was no fun just watching them play tennis. And he was getting kinda hungry.
"And leave them there?" Ryan questioned, shooting his sister's boyfriend a weird look.
"I don't think they'll notice." Chad replied, standing up, "Let's get some sugar, guys!"
The other three agreed and they left the two competitive girls, to go get something sweet. Sharpay and Gabriella kept on playing, the ball moving quickly through the air.
"I'm gonna win this, Blondie!" Gabriella said, hitting the ball.
"Oh no!" Sharpay hit the ball, sending it to the back of Gabriella's court, "I will! You're nothing compared to me, Gabs."
"I'm so gonna beat you!"
"Nuh-uh!"
"Uh-uh!"
"Don't you uh-uh my nuh-uh!"
"I'm gonna beat you, face the facts!"
"So not!"
"Will do!"
"Will not!"
"Do!"
"Not!"
"Do!"
"Not!"
"Do!"
"No-ot!"
… time laps. Hours later …
"Do!"
"Not!"
"Do!"
"Not!"
"Do!"
"Not!"
"Do!"
"Not!"
Suddenly Gabriella stopped as the lights turned on around the court, and the ball hit the ground because she almost couldn't see. She turned around to look at the bench, but no one was there. She turned back to Sharpay, who looked just as confused, "When did they leave?"
"Maybe around the thousandth 'Do!', I honestly have no idea…" Sharpay said, tiredly throwing herself onto the court, resting her sore legs.
"I'm so tii-red!" Gabriella whined, moving over to lie down next to her, "I guess we got kinda competitive."
"Kinda?" Sharpay cursed, "Gah, we were like Monica from 'Friends' playing Pictionary."
Gabriella giggled and looked Sharpay in the eye, "Do you want to go get something to eat? I'm starving."
"Yeah," Sharpay said, standing up, and pulling Gabriella with her, "I hope they didn't take my car…"
"I think I could eat a cow." Gabriella mumbled, slowly making her way towards Sharpay's pink convertible.
"But it was worth all the pain, because I still won." Sharpay said, sitting down in the smooth seat, resting her body again.
"You did not win, I won!" Gabriella argued, sitting down as well.
"Did not!"
"Did so!"
"Nuh-uh!"
"Uh-uh!"
………………………………………………………The End.
So yeah. We got kinda crazy here with the end now. But ah, it was hard to end it, and we really didn't have much planned for the epilogue to begin with, so there you have it. Thanks for reading this story, and reviewing as well. It meant a lot to us. Please review one last time.
Toodles, Noukka and Stessa.
Peace out!
