"Ray! Stop. Ray! Stop damn it! Come on Ray! Stop ignoring me. Damn it Ray, turn around and face me like a man!" Lily almost screams down the hall of Henry Roscoe High School.
"I always knew something was wrong with that one?" A boy about the same age as Lily mutters before snickering. Lily simply glares at him as she continues to run after Ray.
"Come on! Turn around!" Lily is frantic. She can't handle it anymore. "I'm tired of this Ray! Be a man. Accept it. I waited for you and it didn't happen."
Ray shakes his head as he turns around. "You're right. It's my entire fault. Now leave me alone to mope damn it."
Lily just shakes her head and says, "No. Now, come talk to me. Face to face. Like a real man would." Ray nod and slowly follows her. Lily grabs his arm and pulls him toward the stairs before sitting down and pulling him down next to her. "Ok. Ray. Deal with it. Come on Ray. Don't be mad at Travis, or me. Please? We just did what we thought was right."
Ray slowly nods, "I know. Ok?"
Lily sighs and says, "Then why are you ignoring us? We didn't do anything wrong here Ray."
Ray just rolls his eyes and says, "I know Lily. . .Just let me work this out by myself. I'll talk to Travis alright? But I won't do it voluntarily. If he has something to say to me then I will reply, but I won't initiate the conversations."
Lily sighs and nods. "Fine Ray. I'll let you figure this out for yourself. But don't forget what I said. We did nothing wrong. You did nothing wrong. Life just is funny sometimes."
Ray nods before standing up, "Right Lily. Whatever." Lily just shakes her head at his sarcasm and watches as he starts to leave.
"I can not feel this way." She stands and starts to leave, shaking her head. "I can only have feelings for one person."
"Hey Lil," Travis grins at her as he pops out from around one of the corners. He saw her walking down the hall earlier and decided to wait for her. Not having heard what shad said moments ago he grabs her hand lightly before lacing his fingers between hers and saying, "I saw you started to talk to Ray. What happened?"
Lily forces a smile on her face and says, "He said he'd talk to you. He just won't initiate the conversation." She giggles lightly.
Travis nods, "Oh. Good."
Walking down the hall Travis says, "I'm glad. If he'll at least talk to me about this we can get this thing cleared up."
"This THING Travis? Is that all it is to you? A thing?" Lily rolls her eyes as Travis raises an eyebrow at her.
"Lily, Of course not. When I said thing I meant we could clear up how we did nothing wrong, and how he didn't either. We just followed our hearts." He nods.
Lily smiles a little before saying, "Oh. Ok Good. He also said we can continue with RFR."
Travis just grins as he says, "Good." RFR had become his refuge in the afternoon to keep away from home. He had things to do after school whenever RFR was going on and his parents, although they let him do much of what he wanted, did question where he was when he didn't have things to do. And he's not really a good liar.
~^~^~^~^~
"Ray. Thanks for saying you'd talk to me to Lily."
"No problem."
"I think it is big of you to at least try to talk to me after what happened."
"Yeah sure."
"Ok. Well I have to go. Talk to you later man?"
"Yeah..." Ray rolls his eyes as Travis leaves. In the most sarcastic voice he can muster Ray mutters, "man."

Dear Journal;
I can't believe I feel like this? I can't believe I'm writing in you. I haven't written you in ages. Anyway . . . I can't believe it! I think I may still have feelings for Ray. I now know he had feelings for me, even when I liked him before. I mean, how am I supposed to feel?! I am just so confused. This isn't fair. I have two great guys, Travis and Ray. . . One I am dating (Today is the two week mark! It's officially a relationship... My first real 'relationship') and the other I have been friends with since I was about two. I need to figure this out. I can't just dump Travis because I think I may have feelings for Ray, but I can't just ignore these feelings either. This is so crappy. Why does life deal me these crappy hands? Oh well. Let's just see what happens. Travis and I are meeting at Mickey's tonight and then we are going to see a Star Wars at the planetarium. How funny is that. That's one of the things I love about Travis. He has such cool and different ideas. He doesn't have to be like everyone else sometimes. Ray feels like he has to be 'cool' and the same as other people all the time. But I still feel something for him. Oh well. Life treats you weird sometimes I guess . . . Well I am out. I need to get ready.

Later that night Lily sits at her computer. Her date with Travis was not what she expected. Flowers, candy, a nice restaurant, and then the movie. It was extravagant. Logging on to her AOL Instant Messanger account Lily instant messages Ray:
Shady88: Hey
Raymeister: Hey
Shady88: What's up
Raymeister: Not much, you?
Shady 88: I just got home from my date with Travis. It's been two weeks. It's an official relationship now. . .
The screen stays blank for a moment before Lily starts typing again:
Shady88: Ray? You there?
Shady88: Ray? Come on. Talk to me.
Raymeister: Fine.
Shady88: I've been thinking about something. Meet me at Mickey's in like 20 minutes.
Raymeister: Sure; whatever.
