RUN TO ME

To reload: Thanks again for the review. Glad you like the Lily/Ray bit. Like I said, it would be included if I had a burst of inspiration, and I did. Had to have Ed and Ted, wouldn't have been a broadcast without them. I think I can explain some of the mistakes that I made, though. The reason Jordan and the others knew Kayla had joined RFR was that Kayla called her back after she got off the phone with Travis. I forgot to put that in Chapter 7, whoops! I have no idea how far down the radio stations go, so I'm gonna say that ACE is an AM station, because I know they go a bit below 88.0, I just don't know how far below that is. Now that you mention it, the eavesdropping update was unnecessary, but at least I now know that I spelled 'eavesdrop' right! Seriously, to me, flames don't exist, unless the review in question happens to be really snotty and rude. Then it's a whole 'nother ballgame. Keep on reading, reviewing, and enjoying!
MORE TO LIFE
Kayla walked home that night after RFR feeling like she was on air, and thinking that life couldn't get any better than it already was.
"You're in a good mood tonight," Mrs. Adams, who was putting cookies into a cookie jar, said as Kayla literally waltzed into the kitchen, dropping her backpack by the kitchen island that served as a table in the middle of the kitchen and hopping up onto one of the chairs.
"Yep," Kayla said, grabbing a cookie out of the cookie jar and beginning to eat it before her mother could stop her, "Today was great."
"I suppose you were out with your friends then?"
"Yeah."
"What did you guys do?"
Kayla hesitated. If she told her mother about RFR, she'd be betraying the other DJs. If she didn't, she'd be lying to her mother.
Mrs. Adams looked at her daughter and instantly recognized the look on her face. "Another radio station, eh?"
Kayla dropped her cookie on the table and jumped about 3 feet out of her chair, or so it seemed. "How did you know?"
Her mother laughed. "You used to make the same face whenever you were out with your friends back home, working on the radio station there." Noticing the panic that had now appeared on her daughter's face, she added, "Don't worry, your secret's safe with me."
Kayla breathed a sigh of relief and, having finished her cookie, started upstairs.
"Oh, honey, before you go upstairs, your friend Lily called. Said she wanted you to call her back, about some kind of homework?"
Kayla smacked her forehead and said, "Crap, I completely forgot!" With that she ran upstairs, stopping in Shelby's room to say hello and give advice on what color "Baby" should have for a new dress, before running into her room and shutting the door. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Lily, I'm really sorry! I completely forgot that I was supposed to call you when I got home!"
"It's OK," Lily said as Kayla finished her apology, "Don't worry about it. I just needed to know if you had an idea for that project we were assigned for Current Events class. We need to figure something out."
"Yeah, we do. I was thinking, maybe a presentation that includes a song or something. That is, if you want to."
"I think it's a great idea. So, do you have any specific song in mind?"
Kayla was about to say no, when suddenly, a song on her radio caught her attention, and it gave her an idea.....
Yeah yeah...oh...oh.... I've got it all, but I feel so deprived. I go up, I come down, and I'm emptier inside. Tell me what is this thing that I feel like I'm missing And why can't I let it go? There's gotta be more to life than chasing down every temporary high to satisfy me. Cuz the more that I'm trippin' up thinking there must be more to life. Well it's life, but I'm sure. There's gotta be more... than wanting more. I've got the time and I'm wasting it slowly Here in this moment, I'm halfway out the door. Onto the next thing, I'm searching for something that's missing. There's gotta be more to life than chasing down every temporary high to satisfy me. Cuz the more that I'm trippin' up thinking there must be more to life. Well it's life, but I'm sure. There's gotta be more... I'm wanting more. I'm always waiting on something other than this. Why am I feelin' like there's something I missed? There's gotta be more to life than chasing down every temporary high to satisfy me. Cuz the more that I'm trippin' up thinking there must be more to life. Well it's life, but I'm sure. There's gotta be more... than wanting more. There's gotta be more to life than chasing down every temporary high to satisfy me. Cuz the more that I'm trippin' up thinking there must be more to life. Well it's life, but I'm sure... (There's gotta be more) More...ooh yeah.. (More) More to (To) More to (Life) More to life...(yeah) (There' s got be more to life) More to More to life... (More) More to (To) More to (Life...yeah) There's gotta be more... (There's gotta be more to life)Oooh... More to life...
When the song finished, Kayla said, "Lily, I think I have an idea."
OK, I know this chapter was short, but it was mostly a filler chapter. There will be a couple of these. And because it's so short, I will give you a preview of the next chapter.
Title: Whistle While You Work Summary: Lily and Kayla work on their project and get an unexpected visitor. Another RFR broadcast, and this time, they get an interesting caller.
A/N: After the next chapter (chapter 10) time will skip forward a bit. Each chapter will take place a week or two after the last chapter, except for one that I am planning to have take place 3 months after an event in one of the chapters. There might even be a sequel!
