A/N: Ok, this is my first fanfic, so please go easy on me. But I would really like you to review and tell me what you thought.

Rating: PG13, just in case.

Chapter 1

Travis had been acting the same way the entire day. He'd just sit there in the booth, not doing anything except answering all the phone calls that came in today. There was something wrong with him, she could just feel it. Normally he would be talking up a storm, inserting his quotes here and there, but most importantly, contradicting Ray's statements whenever he could. What surprised her was that there had been none of that today. It just feels different here today, she thought.

Travis brought a good vibe and something more to the show every day. It wasn't here today though. It just wasn't RFR without Travis' insightful, although sometimes confusing, quotes. She suddenly realized that she missed it, whatever it was. Lily was even more surprised that she noticed the difference in him.

Snapping out of her brief reverie, Lily tuned back in just as Robbie was closing out the show for today.

"...This is Radio Free Roscoe, signing out."

Lily gazed over at Travis, waiting for him to take them off the air like he did every day. He flipped a couple of switches, pushed a couple of buttons and the show was over. She kept watching him in the booth, unable to tear her eyes away from him. He captivated her. It was as simple as that.

She had never met anyone like him. He was like a breath of fresh air in this town. No one, not even Ray or Robbie, completely understood her. Lily felt as if she couldn't share her true feelings with anyone here. They would never understand the reasons for her feelings. So, instead of trying to explain them, she chose not to. She wrote songs exploring the depth of her feelings. That was her way to express all her thoughts and emotions, and like her feelings, the songs had never been shared. The songs had been an outlet for all her hopes and fears about school, boys and her family. She kept those hopes and fears to herself, that is, until Travis came to Roscoe.

From the first day, Lily knew that she and Travis were going to become terrific friends. He was the kind of confidant that Ray could never be. He trusted her enough to share his thoughts, his fears and his doubts with her. She tried her best to help calm those fears and doubts of his by writing him songs, like the one for his birthday. She also trusted him enough that when he offered to produce her single, she went for it. While recording her single, they spent a lot of time together. They found out a lot about each other and she finally shared her feelings with him. Travis, being the person he is, soothed Lily's fears and doubts as well. He was the only one who truly understood her. He was different than all the people in Roscoe, and she loved that about him.

Travis could feel her gaze linger on him for a while as he pretended to be paying attention to the equipment. He tried not to notice, quickly looking for something else that needed his attention. There was no use, he thought. He noticed anything she did, even if it was just to push her silky blond hair away from her face. He'd been sneaking looks at her all afternoon, instead of paying attention to the show. That's partly the reason he was so out of it today.

Travis just couldn't understand what was going on. I've never been this way before, he thought, I've never thought about anyone like this. He wasn't used to having thoughts about girls, much less Lily, in his head for the entire day. It was probably the fact that she had gotten closer to him then anyone ever had. She had cracked through the shell that he had put up around his heart, all in the few months that they knew each other. He was just so afraid to get attached to anyone because of the fact that at any given time, he may have to get up and move again. But he realized that Lily was different.

She made him feel like this was home, even if he'd been in Roscoe less than a year. Take his birthday for example. He had always hated his birthdays because there was never anyone there to celebrate it with him, with the exception of his family. But, this year, it was different. Lily had him come down to the station and she played him a special birthday song. She had said that she wrote it especially for him. He had memorized the song and he knew that he would never forget that night when she sang it to him. It was the best moment of his life. Lily had done something so special for him; she had made him realize that Roscoe truly was his home. Sure, he lived in London and Hong Kong, and they were great places to stay for a while but neither of them felt like a home. Neither of them had Lily there right next to him.

Finally, Lily broke her gaze on Travis and began to get up from her seat. Suddenly the tables were turned and he was the one who couldn't look away. Funny, how this whole thing backfired on him. He had focused on getting her to look away from him, only to have himself be pulled in. She was spellbinding and enchanting. The way that the sun made her blond hair sparkle and the way her beautiful blue eyes shined when she smiled just made him feel like he was in the presence of an angel. A beautiful angel that he wished was his.
