He woke up and realized that the movie was long over. Lily was snuggled
into his shoulder and the popcorn bowl was upside down on the floor. He
wished that they could stay like that forever but his arm was getting numb
and he had to work in the morning. He slowly lifted her head and stood up,
laying her head back down on the pillow. He then picked her up and carried
her into his bedroom, laying her under the warm covers of his bed. Grabbing
a pillow and his alrm clock he went out to sleep on the couch.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------
She woke up the next morning and realized she wasn't in her bed. She looked to her left and saw a picture of her and Ray on the nightstand and realized she hadn't gone home the night before. She pulled back the covers and stepped out of bed. She shivered as she walked barefoot across the cold floor. She walked into the kitchen and read the note sitting on the counter.
Lily, Sorry I didn't wake you up last night, I was to tired to drive you home. I figured you wouldn't mind since its Saturday. Help yourself to anything you want.
Love yah,
Ray
She smiled then dropped the note into the waste paper basket. She turned to the cupboards and dug through them looking for the Cheerios. When she found them she poured herself a bowl and turned the T.V. On. She took a few bites of her cereal and started flipping through channels. When she couldn't find anything she decided on Dora the Explorer. She was Chanting "Swiper no Swiping" as Ray walked in and started laughing.
Ray- May I ask what your doing?
Lily- Learning Spanish of course! What are you doing here?
Ray- I live here!
Lily- I thought you had to work until one.
Ray- It is one!
Lily- Oh my gosh! Did I really sleep in that late? I have to meet Audrey at Mickey's in half an hour!
Ray- Well hurry up and i'll drive you.
Lily ran into the bathroom and quickly pulled Ray's brush through her hair. She dug through her purse and found her body spray and quickly squirted some on her clothing. She then ran into Ray's room and found the hoody she had left there a couple of weeks ago and pulled it over her head. She walked back into the living rom where Ray was sitting on the couch.
Ray- Ready?
Lily- Yeah, Lets go. 15 minutes!
Ray got up, grabbed his keys off the counter and followed Lily out the door. 20 minutes later Ray pulled up in front of Mickey's.
Ray- Do you need a ride home?
Lily- Actually I'm going to spend the night at Audrey's and help her do some last minute packing.
Ray- I can't believe her and Travis are moving to New York!
Lily- I know! Its gunna be weird around here without them.
Just then Audrey came out of the building and motioned for Lily to come inside.
Lily- Gotta go, Love you, bye!
Ray- Love you too, see you tomorrow.
Lily kissed him quickly on the cheek and hooped out of the car. she watched Ray pull away and walked over to Audrey.
Audrey- You're late!
Lily- Sorry! I woke up late and didn't realize how late it was until Ray came home.
Audrey- (smirking) Why were you at Ray's?
Lily- I fell asleep while we were watching a movie. Nothing happened.
Audrey- Uh huh! Right!
Lily- Oh just shut up!
Audrey and Lily walk in and sit on the cxouch.
Audrey- So have you and Ray talked about anything serious?
Lily- I haven't really thought about it, I mean i'm pretty happy with the way things are now.
Audrey- Well, as long as your happy.
Lily- What about you and Travis? Are there wedding bells in the future?
Audrey- I don't know. I was just excited when he asked me to move to New York with him.
Lily- Yeah, We're all gunnna miss you guys.
Audrey- Awww! I'll miss you too!
Audrey leans over and gives Lily a hug. They talk fo another hour and then head back to Audrey's. The apartment is a frenzie with cardboard boxes and newspaper.
Lily- Where do we start?
Audrey- Anywhere. theres really not a whole lot left.
Lily and Audrey start to carefully wrap small knick-knacks and pictures in newspaper. They fill up five boxes by the time they are through.
Audrey- What should we do now?
Lily- I don't know. everythings packed away!
Audrey- Lets just talk
Lily- Okay.
Audrey and Lily found a comfortable spot on the floor and shared stories on when they were little, What they wanted to do when they were a little older and where they wanted to be. They felt like they were teenagers again, sharing their hopes and dreams for the future. It was 3 a.m. when they finally curled up on Audrey's living room floor and went to sleep.
