Sorry for the wait guys. I had a huge case of writer's block. Anyways sorry bout this chapter. I don't think it's that good. But please keep doing the 2R's… Reading and Reviewing. And if you have any ideas please let me know
Lily took a bite of her sandwich, then put it down and continued strumming her guitar. She had a free block and decided to just sit on the stairs and strum her guitar. She softly sang to herself
"Is this all an illusion I'm in a state of confusionFeel lost, like I can't be found
Like I'm sinking deeper in the ground." All of the sudden, Travis came to mind she sang this song. She thought it was too good to be true. He was just supposed to be her friend, yet he was so much more. He was everything she could of wanted. He was kind, intelligent, thoughtful, and not too shabby looking. Scratch that, he was AMAZING looking. But seriously, his personality was so intriguing, and it was such a thing to treasure.
"That's a beautiful song," Travis said as he sat beside Lily and gave her a kiss. She smiled.
"Well, I kind of had someone in mind when I wrote it," she explained. She looked into his eyes. He smiled and nodded.
"And who might that be?" he questioned her.
"Just some guy, who I kind of like, who is kind of suppose to be my friend," she said. "What's his name again umm? Trevor, Thomas?" Travis smiled.
"And do you want him to be more then a friend?" he asked.
"Yeah, I do," she said and he stroked her hair. Just then he grabbed her hand.
"Come on, let's go," he said. Lily looked at him.
"Where?" she asked. She placed her guitar back in her case.
"You'll see," he said and he grabber her hand. They ran out of Roscoe High and towards the station. They stopped in front of it.
"Wow, what a surprise!" Lily exclaimed sarcastically. "Because I've never been her before."
"Less sarcasm, more walking," Travis stated as he walked into the station. Lily followed behind him. He grabbed her arm and led her to a microphone.
"And your doing what?" Lily asked.
"I want you to record that song," Travis explained. "I want it to be our song."
"What? Why?" Lily questioned.
"Because the whole message of the song is exactly what we're going through," Travis said gazing into her eyes. "Plus it has a double impact. Because you're the one singing it, and it will just make me think about you and how lucky I am to have you even more." Lily looked up at him and smiled. "Well OK then," she said. She sat behind the microphone. Travis ran to the tech booth and turned everything. He pointed at Lily and she started singing. Travis loved how she got lost in her music and how she let it carry her away. She finished the song and Travis turned everything off. He went over to her and placed his arms on her shoulders. He caressed her face gently and placed his lips on hers. She grabbed his shoulders and softly returned his kiss.
"And now we're coming to the station," Robbie shouted. Lily and Travis looked at each other and quickly broke apart.
"Cool, I never knew we were coming to station," Ray shouted, not really sure why Robbie was shouting.
"Thank you Robbie," Lily thought to herself. They walked in
"Ladies, the fun has arrived," Ray exclaimed.
"Too bad I'm the only lady here," Lily said. "And where's the fun? I don't see it."
"Ouch Lily. That cut me really deep right here," Ray said indicating his toe. Lily rolled her eyes.
"And we're on in 5…4…3…2…" Travis counted down. "Welcome to…"
"Radio…" Ray came in.
"Free…" Lily joined in.
"Roscoe..." Robbie finished. "I'm Question Mark, and I'm wondering, is it better to keep the truth hidden, or reveal it, even if you know it will hurt someone?" Lily and Travis looked at each other. They knew where this was going.
"I think sometimes we need to hide the truth. Because sometimes it better to shield people from pain," Lily said.
"I disagree Shady," Ray said. "I think the truth should always be revealed. For example say this guy… let's call him Ronald… liked a girl…we'll call her Lindsey. Well what if one of Ronald's best friends… um he can be Trevor, liked Lindsey and they had a little thang going on. Say they didn't tell Ronald, and he found out later… could you imagine how much that would hurt Ronald?"
"Whoa, creepy," Travis thought. He had used the first letter in all their names.
"Well listeners, what do you think?" Robbie asked. Calls were coming in like crazy. It was a 50/50 split down middle.
"Well, thanks for tuning in listeners. And it's time to say goodbye… with this song here," Robbie said, and he gave Travis the cue to play 'Broken' by Seether and Amy Lee. "Good show guys."
"Bonjour," Ray said as he headed out the door. Lily looked at him
"You realize you just said hello in French, right?" Lily asked him. He looked at her
"I did not, I said goodbye. Au Revoir is hello," Ray argued. Lily rolled her eyes.
"And we all wonder how I just passed French…" Ray stated. Anyways I gotta go now. See you guys tomorrow," Ray said as he ran out the door. Robbie looked at Travis and Lily. "Sorry if that question made you uncomfortable," Robbie said. "I just think you should tell him before he finds out from someone else."
"We're just not ready yet," Travis explained. "We will though, now's just not the time."
"Well whatever, it's up to you guys," Robbie stated. He grabbed his bag and walked towards the door.
"Adios," Lily said. He turned and waved at them both. Travis wrapped his arms around Lily.
"Maybe Robbie's right…. Maybe we should tell Ray now," she said with doubt.
"Lily, give it time. We should let what happened yesterday die down first," he said.
"Your right," she said with a smile and hugged him and ran her fingers through his hair. He leaned in to kiss her. Lily heard some things being knocked over. Then she swore she saw a flash of light. She looked at Travis. "Did you hear that?" she asked him. He nodded and grabbed her hand. They walked over to the window and saw a shadow retreating. Lily looked at Travis with worry.
"Don't worry, it was probably just a cat or something," Travis said as he wrapped his arms around Lily. He bent down and indicated she should hop on his back. She laughed and jumped on. As they were walking, Lily couldn't help but think about the mysterious noise and shadow. "I just hope you're right Travis," she thought. "Otherwise, we're in big trouble."
