Ch 2 - We Might Have a Problem : 10/16/06, ~ Monday
Riley had been enrolled into Roscoe High and she'd been there for about a month and a half now. Riley had three friends now, even thought they were all Ray's friend's: Robbie, who was just odd; Travis, who was confusing but cute; and Lily, who Riley was glad was there so she wasn't the only girl.
Currently, it was lunch break and Riley was trying to find one of the four she always hung out with. She was almost running down the hallway. She saw someone a few feet in front of her. She couldn't really tell who he was, but she assumed she knew because of his spiky blonde hair. "Travis?"
Travis froze. His eyes went wide and he swallowed. It was Riley. He had to leave. He had to leave now.
"Tra-vis!" Riley called again, slowly closing the space between them as she wove through the people in the hallway.
Too late. He'd been rooted to the spot for too long. He couldn't ignore her now. There were only a few people between them now. Travis turned around. "Hey, Riley."
Riley sighed, "Oh thank God! At first I thought that maybe it wasn't you! Anyway, I wanna talk to you."
"Ok..what abo--"
Before he could finish his sentence, Riley was dragging him off somewhere. Somewhere was soon knows as an empty classroom. Travis wasn't sure he liked the thought of being in an empty class room with Riley. She was a fairly unpredictable kind of girl. "So...uh...what did you want to...talk about?"
"Travis?" Riley said, eyebrow raised. "What's up? If I didn't know you better, I'd say you seem a little tense...but..I do have the pleasure of knowing you." Riley smiled.
Travis hoped he wasn't blushing. It was light enough that she'd be able to tell if he was, even with the lights not on. "No...I'm not tense....I am a little confused though."
Riley mock-gasped, "Travis Strong is confused? Never thought I'd see the day." She smiled and sat on the edge of the teacher's desk.
"So...what was it that you wanted to talk about?"
"Well, I don't like it...everyday, four o'clock you four go off and it's almost like you guys don't want me going...wherever it is that you go everyday..." She stopped for a moment. "Where do ya'll go everyday anyway?"
Travis knew what she was talking about. What was he supposed to say? 'Oh, yeah, we go to our underground radio station everyday and do a radio show under our alter-egos.' No one was supposed to know their identities, so what the hell was he supposed to say?
"Heeellllloooo....Earth to Travis....Did I loose the Travis signal?"
"Sorry...um...well...do you wanna...come with us today?" As soon as the words had come out of his mouth Travis closed his eyes. I can't believe I just did that!
Riley smiled, "Yeah...that'd be cool."
"See you later then, right?"
Travis nodded, "Yeah...later..."
Riley grinned, slid off the desk, walked over to him, kissed him on the cheek, turned and walked out of the room.
Travis blinked. That couldn't have just happened. It had to be his imagination.
((Travis P.O.V.)) You know how realization has a funny way of hitting you at the last second, you know, after you've done something you shouldn't have? Well, that's how it was right now with me. Realization suddenly decided to hit me...now of all times. I just told Riley that she could come with us today at four. Four is when we do RFR. "I've got to find the other three!" ((End P.O.V.)) With that, Travis ran out of the classroom to go find Robbie, Lily, and Ray.
~*~
Travis didn't get to talk to the three until after their last class, and he was lucky that Riley didn't catch up with them like she usually did. Lily wasn't with the three guys yet though, she got caught up in a conversation with Riley, that's where they were.
"Guys...we've got a problem..."
"What kind of problem?" Robbie asked.
"An RFR problem..."
"What? We don't have a problem at RFR..."
"Yeah...we do..."
"Why? What happened?" Ray asked.
"I...I kinda...told Riley she could...come with us today..."
"What?" Robbie and Ray asked in unison.
"Well...she's feeling left out...I mean, we go do the show every day at four and she doesn't know were we're going...."
Ray grinned, "You got the hots for my cousin, don't ya?"
"No..."
"Yeah, yeah, whatever. I can tell man...I know how it is..."
"Of course you would...what with you liking..."
Ray saw Lily walking over and his eyes widened and he shook his head furiously. "No, man...don't do this..."
"Lily and all..."
"What is it?" Lily asked. "I heard my name, what are you guys talking about?"
"We've got a problem." Ray said immediately.
"What is it?"
"Travis told Riley that she could come with us today..."
"Like...to the show?"
"Yeah..."
"Why did you do that? The point of it all is to be able to do the show without anyone knowing who we are..."
"I know...it's just--" Travis started.
"He's got the hots for her."
"No, I don't. But she's feeling left out, us four going somewhere everyday and...she doesn't know where we're going. So...I kinda told her she could come today."
Lily gave him a look that basically said ,"You moron!". However, she added, "What are we going to do then? We can't exactly do the show..."
Robbie decided to intervene now, "Guys, this is an easy fix. We'll just take one of the older recorded shows and play it. No one'll ever know the difference."
"They might, but oh well, it's something, right?" Lily said.
"It's better than nothing." Ray said. "You're such a moron, man."
Travis really wished none of this had happened. Now Ray, if not the other two as well, was going to be teasing him about liking Riley. He didn't even know for himself if he liked her, how could anyone else know?
~*~
Later that day...
"Ray?'
"What is it, Riley?"
"Come here!"
"Why?"
"Just come here!"
"Why?!"
"I don't wanna yell anymore!"
Ray got up and walked upstairs to his cousins room. "What?" He asked, standing in the doorway.
"You know I'm going with you guys today, right?"
"Yeah..."
"Ok, well...later." With that, she slammed the door shut and you could hear music playing.
"She's so weird..."
