Lily sat on the front step, leading to her house. She didn't know what to think. She couldn't believe she had just walked out on Travis like that. That made her madder then anything. Her thoughts twisted to Ray, what he was feeling and what he must be feeling like. She got up and started to walk to his house. Robbie, Travis or Lily hadn't talked to Ray since it happened and Lily sort of missed him. When she got to his house she knocked on the door, hoping someone would answer it, but at the same time hoping no one would answer it. She stood there for a few minutes in silence as she heard footsteps come to the door, and it opened, standing in front of her was Ray. Ray and Lily looked at each other for a minute before Ray decided he should talk.
"What do you want Lily?" Ray asked coldly, not even noticing the unpleasant look that had settled upon Lily's face.
"Ray…" Lily said quietly looking at Ray. Her face had turned red, and her eyes had started to itch. She shifted her view towards the ground suddenly as a single tear rolled down her cheek.
"Lily? Are you crying?" Ray asked stepping out of the door frame and onto the step where Lily was standing. He looked at Lily more closely and noticed as her eyes welled up with tears. Without any question he pulled Lily inside his house and brought her over to the couch.
"Lily, what's wrong?" Ray asked again this time looking at her with a quizzical look.
"I… broke up with Travis." Lily said looking at Ray through her hair. As she said the words, she couldn't believe what she had done.
"What? Why?" Ray asked confused as he hugged Lily.
"I was mad that I hadn't talked to you in so long. I was mad that none of us were friends anymore; I didn't know what to do. I just want everyone to be friends again" Lily said softly as she wiped at her eyes momentarily.
"Lil, you shouldn't have broken up with Travis because of that." Ray said looking at Lily with big eyes.
"What do you mean?" Lily said through broken sobs.
"This is between Travis and me. You didn't have to break up with him because of that" Ray shrugged.
"But yet, you won't talk to me?" Lily quipped and got up from where she was standing and walked to Ray's door.
