"If you like her kid, ask her out" Mickey said as he slapped Ray on the back.

Ray nodded his head solemnly and smiled a bit "You know what Mickey, maybe I will."

Ray replied as he got off his chair and walked out of the door of Mickey's. He was thinking to himself as he turned the long way to walk home. He decided he would ask Lily out tomorrow at school. He'd find her in the morning, before anyone else would, and ask her then. Although, he decided it would be hard to find her without Travis. She was usually around him as of late.

'It's probably because they've gotten closer since she recorded her single' Ray thought to himself smiling. He stopped in front of a tree and tried to decide which way he would walk. If he went to the left, he'd walk across the bridge, if he went to the left, he'd have to walk through the forest. He quickly decided he'd go to his left and walk along the bridge. He was walking until he noticed two silhouettes sitting on the walkway of the bridge. He wanted to go and laugh at them, like he usually did with his friends, until he got closer. His eyes widened when he saw what looked like Travis and Lily, sitting on a blanket, having a picnic. Ray immediately turned around but he tripped over his own feet. He growled when he got up and turned around to see Travis and Lily kissing each other with Travis running his hands through Lily's hair.

Ray turned back around and started to head in the direction of Mickey's. He wasn't going to stop there; he was going to walk that way home instead. He didn't want to know why, or how Lily and Travis were together, but he felt it was unfair because Travis knew how Ray felt about Lily. Ray frowned to himself as he felt what felt like a huge hole develop in his stomach.

Lily giggled as Travis tried to tickle her but she moved away quickly. Travis quickly leaned up against her and kissed her softly. Lily laughed again as she could feel Travis's hand move softly through her hair. She blushed, only being sure that she could feel it, and Travis couldn't see it.

Lily sat up straight suddenly, and turned her head quickly in the opposite direction of Travis.

"Did you hear that?" she asked looking back at Travis with a worried look on her face.

Travis looked around for a second and saw a person walking away in the opposite direction of them.

"It's just someone walking by, don't worry okay?" Travis said wrapping his arm back around Lily. He looked out at the figure of the person walking, and thought he knew who it might be. Although, he couldn't put a finger on it.
