A/N: I felt really bad giving you Chapter 4 with practically nothing in it, so here's my gift to you. I'm expecting reviews now, you know! ;)
…Three Weeks Later….
Lily and Travis were sitting cozily in Mickey's together, which became a staple for them over the past few weeks.
"Lily, this is really hard to say." Travis said,
"That's okay. I'm listening." Lily said eagerly, nodding her head. Ever since she and Travis had been together she felt really happy because she finally had a boyfriend. Sometimes things didn't feel exactly right…but Lily figured it would all work out somehow.
"Okay, we've been dating for a few weeks now. And it's been fun, hanging out with you - alone." Travis began. Lily nodded. He squirmed in his seat. He ran his hands through his hair. He didn't want to hurt Lily. They were really good friends. "It's just...I asked you out the first day...um...because I wanted to uh...it's just that. Okay. Lily, I thought I liked you 'that way'. But. I don't."
"You what?" She stared back at him, thinking maybe; maybe this was some sort of joke.
"I would have told you before, but I just..."
"You don't like me? At all?" Lily was getting up slowly, backing
away. This was not going well.
"Lily, don't go." He grabbed her arm but she quickly pulled it away. "C'mon Lily, don't be like this."
"Be like what, Travis?" People were beginning to stare. Lily blinked back tears. "We went out for three weeks and you just now figured out that you don't like me?" Before Travis could reply, Lily ran out of Mickey's and covered her face with her hands. Just when she had everything figured out, it all crumbled. She quickly began walking down the street, just wanting to go home so this day would end.
"Lily?" She was stopped by a voice and a gentle hand on her wrist. Turning slowly, she stared into Ray's eyes.
"What do you want, Ray?" She asked miserably.
"I heard what Travis said in there," He said with sympathy. She listened quietly. "And he doesn't get it. He doesn't understand." Ray's grip loosened on Lily's wrist and moved slowly to her hand. She stared at their hands as another tear fell down her cheek. She hastily wiped it away. She hated having Ray see her cry. She looked up at him only to notice how close he was to her face. Ray couldn't help it. There she was, standing so close to him, crying because Travis broke her heart. He tucked a piece of hair behind her ear and slowly moved in so that his lips touched hers. Just as he began to deepen the kiss, Lily turned her face away so that his nose was to her cheek.
"I have to go." She said quietly as she left.
