This next chapter is dedicated to my sister, who complained there's not enough Robbie in this fic. So sorry to all the Robbie fans (my bad). Anyways thanks again for all the awesome reviews. This is my first fanfic so it's a little nerve racking!
Robbie had never run so fast in his life. Lucas' words rang out throughout his head. "Lily's mine and Travis better value the next few days of his life." Travis was right about Lucas, and now Robbie hoped he wasn't too late.
"Ray, this way," he shouted. Ray nodded and followed Robbie. Robbie turned the corner and ran to Kim's house. He rang the doorbell and waited. Kin opened the door and saw Robbie. She smiled and leaned in to kiss him. He cleared his throat,
"Hey, do I get one too?" Ray asked. Kim rolled her eyes. Then Ray shook his head and said, "WHAT?" did the queen of mean just kiss you?"
"Cause we're going out, but that doesn't matter now," Robbie stated. He turned to Kim. "We have a problem here," he explained. Then he described the whole Lucas coming into to town and Travis warning them about him, and none of them listening.
"I'm gonna kill that Mucous if he did anything to Lily," Ray shouted. Then he smiled. "Mucous, ha that's way better then pucous. Ray you a genius." Kim and Robbie stared at him. "Right, now's not the time to realize Ray's smartness."
"I think we should all split up so we can find them faster. Kim, you go to Mickey's, Ray, you check at Lily's and Travis', and I'll go to the sta… I mean the start and end of the park." Ray shoot him a whoa, too close for comfort look.
"Alright, make sure everyone has their cell phones one so we can keep in touch," Kim exclaimed. She grabbed her coat and the 3 of them ran off. Robbie had thought they should split up for another reason. He figured something might be happening between Travis and Lily. And he didn't want Ray to see yet.
" I just hope you guys are OK, or I'll never forgive myself," Robbie thought to himself. He continued running, praying that he'd find them.

Lily started shivering. The coolness of the night and the effects were taking their toll on her. Travis took of his jacket and wrapped it around her.
"Travis, you moron, you're gonna freeze to death," Lily scolded him. He wrapped his arms around her. "I think I'll be fine with you here," he said and kissed her on the lips.
"Travis, um, how do you think Ray's gonna take this?" Lily asked. Travis looked at her and frowned.
"Well, I think there's gonna be a lot of yelling and possibly more violence. But other then that, great," he answered her.
" I hate to hurt him and all, but I think it's time I told him there's nothing there but friendship. And that you're the one I love," Lily reasoned. Travis nodded his head.
"I don't wanna hurt Ray either, but it will hurt him more if he finds out from someone else. Besides, this just feels so right. We… we just fit Lily. I can't really explain and maybe it doesn't make sense…"
"I totally agree Travis," she said and stroked his hand. He started rubbing her shoulders. He lifted her chin and started caressing her lips with his own. She ran her fingers through his hair and wrapped her arms around his neck. Just then they heard the door open.
"Must… breathe… so tired…" Robbie said taking short breaths. He looked up and saw Lily and Travis sitting there together.
"Hey Robbie," Travis said.
"You look a little out of breath," Lily noted. "Want some of Ray's half opened bottle of pop? It already saved someone's life today." Robbie looked at it with disgust and shook his head.
"My tidbit for the day… don't run really fast after eating 5 pieces of pizza," he told them. Then he noticed Travis gash. "Oh my God, Travis what happened? Did you let Lily beat you up again?"
Travis smiled. "Well you know, since Ray wasn't here and Lily needed to vent, I figured I'd fill in for Ray." Then Robbie noticed Lily's arm covered in bruises. She looked down at them. "Yeah, and I didn't want Travis to feel too inferior, so I let him have a couple of shots. But don't tell Ray or he'll be mad."
"Guys, this isn't funny. What really happened?" Then Travis explained the whole situation. Robbie told them what Lucas had said to him. He went to Lily and embraced her and patted Travis on the shoulder. "Well, I better phone Ray and Kim and let them know your ok." Lily and Travis nodded. They already knew about Robbie and Kim. He got off the phone.
"So, you two are together huh?" Robbie asked them. They looked at each other and nodded.
"And we know how much you wanted me and Ray to work out, and I hope your not mad and…" Lily droned on.
"Actually, to tell you the truth, I've always been a big fan of you and Strong. You two just… fit together. And Ray needs to learn that. He'll find someone," Robbie said.
"Well, could you just do us a favor and wait until everything kind of blows over? We'll tell Ray then," Travis said. Robbie nodded. Then Ray came running in.
"Friends!" Ray exclaimed. "Your OK!"
"You however, are not looking so good," Travis stated. Ray nodded.
"Must have half opened bottle of Pepsi," Ray said. He found it sitting on the table beside Lily.
"Ha I knew one of you would rink it eventually. Fess up. Whodunit?" Ray asked.
"If you must know, we used it on Travis' cut," Lily told him. Ray looked and saw blood on the label. The bottle being placed over his lips quickly covered his look of disgust.
"And you all made fun of me for having it here," Ray stated. "It's a hero, and you should all worship it."
"Ray, it's a pop bottle," Robbie said. "I'm not worshipping a pop bottle."
"Well. Will you at least worship me for having it here?" Ray asked. They all shook their heads.
"Oh well. I tried," he said. Then his smiled disappeared and he went to towards Lily. "Robbie told me the whole story. Are you guys OK?" he asked with a serious tone. They both nodded. "Mucous is going down!"
"I thought it was Pucous," Travis said.
"Oh no, Pucous is so an hour ago," Ray said. "Mucous is way better." Then he wrapped his arms around Lily. "Don't worry we'll get through this," he said. Then he grabbed her hand and led her out. Robbie looked at Travis. Travis knew what he was getting at. He wanted Travis to tell Ray now.
"Now's not the time," Travis said. "Let's just get out of here and forget about all this Lucas stuff. The worst is over now."
