Lily tried to resist being dragged across the hall, but Lucas had a strong grip on her. "You know, I wouldn't resist if I were you," he said to Lily.
"Shut up Lucas, you already got what you wanted," Lily said with tears of fury building up in her eyes.
"How about I put it to you this way… If you keep resist, I won't be able to resist my urge to beat up Travis," he said. "Your choice."
Lily eased up and walked along with him. "Your sick, you know that?" she asked him
"As long as I get what I want," he said and ran his fingers along her face. Her face twisted with disgust. Everyone in the hallways stared at them together.
"Look happy," he hissed in her ear.
"Why? Everyone knows I was with Travis. I'm aloud to show remorse for 'breaking up with him' aren't I," she asked. He glared down her. Audrey walked up to them.
"Hey guys," she said. She looked puzzled.
"Audrey, you know, I've always loved to look at the water fountain. Why don't you come with me?" Lily asked tilting her head in the direction of the water fountain. Audrey and Lily walked over to it.
"Um Lily, why are you with Lucas?" Audrey asked. "I mean did me and Travis break up for no reason?"
"Audrey, you gotta help me," Lily starting whispering. "It's Lucas, he's…" Lily turned and saw Lucas staring at them, looking angry. Travis turned the corner and Lucas slid his finger across his throat, indicating to Lily that she should stop.
"What? Is everything ok?" Audrey asked, concerned.
"Um, yeah. I was just gonna say Lucas is so… uh charming," Lily said. Lucas nodded his head in approval. "Ugh, I think I'm gonna hurl," Lily thought to herself.
"Sure, I guess…" Audrey said with confusion.
"Well Anyways, we gotta go, so I'll talk to you later, K?" Lily said. Lucas came behind her and wrapped his arm around her shoulders with a strong grip.
"Ow, your hurting me," Lily said.
"Well maybe that will teach you to stop telling people to help you because your with me, Lucas whispered in her ear. He kissed her neck and smiled.
"That hurts more then this whole arm thing," Lily said with disgust. He starting laughing.
"Oh Lily, it's too bad Travis had to lose you, your such a riot," he said leading them to the lunchroom. They grabbed a tray and walked to the table. They sat and starting eating. Lucas shoved the food into his mouth. "Ugh, groody," Lily thought. She shoved her food away. Just then she met Travis' eye across the cafeteria. He got up and made his way towards the vending machine. He walked by Lily's table and brushed her arm lightly. As he was passing, Lily noticed he dropped a piece of paper. His eyes dropped to the floor, indicating she should pick up the paper. She looked at Lucas and saw he was too engrossed in his and her food to notice what she was doing. It was a note. It said:
Lily, we have a plan. Go to the Girls washroom to await further instructions. She got up."Hey, where are you going?" Lucas asked with his face full of food. "Oh, how charming," Lily thought sarcastically.
"I gotta go take care some of business," Lily responded casually. His face took on a look of disgust.
"Ew!" he exclaimed.
"Oh, sorry I grossed you out," Lily said. "Ha, take that psycho," she silently cheered to herself. She walked into the bathroom. She dug into her purse and put on some lip gloss. She heard someone tapping on the window. She turned and saw Ray sitting in a tree.
"Let me in," he mouthed to her. She went over and opened the window. He climbed in, followed by Travis and Robbie.
" I hope you don't mind, but I figured Ray and Robbie should know about this too. We all care about you and they did threaten RFR," Travis explained. Lily nodded.
"So this is the girls bathroom. I can see what all the hype is about," Ray said and whistled.
"Man, it's huge," Robbie stated. "That is so not fair. Here you women are complaining about equality, and you get these huge bathrooms with covered stalls."
"Guys can we get the… hey your right. Why do you get covered stalls? We want privacy too," Travis complained. Lily rolled her eyes.
"Did you guys call me here so you could complain about your bathroom standards compared to ours, or is this conversation actually going somewhere?" Lily asked.
"WHAT! No way. You guys have a gum machine?" Ray asked as he stared at the pad/tampon machine. "Alright that is too far. Someone give me a quarter so I can get one of these bad boys," he said. They all turned to stare at him.
"Although the brand name isn't the best. Who would want to buy a gum called tamp…" They continued staring at him. His face filled with disgust realizing what it was.
"EW!" he screeched. "That is so not gum."
"Too bad you just found out. I was gonna give you a quarter," Robbie said.
Seriously you guys, let's focus and tell Lily what's happening," Travis said. "Alright here's what we thought. I recalled that Lucas was quite the avid drinker. He almost got kicked off the soccer team. Now if there's one thing Lucas can't stand, it's being kicked off a team. Although, after that whole little fiasco, he kept drinking. So I'm thinking all we have to do is catch him. Lily, I need you to convince him to 'go drinking with you' behind that old warehouse on 67th. Be sure to play it up and be really convincing." Lily's face filled with disgust. Travis leaned into her ear and whispered, "I don't want you to spend anymore time with him either. But it's our best chance." She looked at him and whispered, "I'll do whatever you need me to. I love you." He grabbed her hand and gave it a gentle squeeze.
"Anyways, Ray, Robbie, and I will be hiding in there with my camera phone. We'll take some snapshots and then, we'll bust him."
"It all sounds good, but who's gonna run RFR?" she asked.
"We'll play a prerecorded episode," Robbie explained.
"It will be awesome. It's like playing Charlie's Angels!" Ray exclaimed. "Only we're not girls. So we'll be Christie's Angels."
"So, are you up for it?" Travis asked. Lily looked at all of them and nodded.
"Sweet, I'll even sing us the theme song," Ray said. He started humming the theme from 'Days of Our Lives'. "Oops, wrong theme song," he stated. "I was humming the "Days" theme. I mean not that I would know because it's not like I watch it or anything," he said and looked nervously around. Lily laughed and went to hug Robbie and Ray.
"Thank you guys so much," she said and gave them each a little kiss on the cheek. When she kissed Robbie, he leaned into her to whisper, " I'm doing this for you and Travis too. I'm not letting him break you too apart." She hugged him tighter and whispered, "Thanks." Robbie and Ray walked out. Travis stayed behind. He wrapped his arms around her waist and kissed her on the lips. He gentily lifted her chin and gazed into her eyes.
"I've been waiting to do that all day," he said. Lily rested her head on his chest.
"Travis, are you sure this going to work?" she asked him.
"Well no. But it's our only chance," he said. "I can't believe I asked you to spend more time with either. But that's the best way. If you offer him up on this, I know he won't resist. Let's just get him out of our life for sure."
"I better get back to him before he suspects something, even though he's too engrossed in his food to even notice." Travis laughed.
Well, besides himself and girls, it's one of Lucas' biggest loves in his life."
"I love you Travis," Lily said as she caressed his cheek. He traced her hand along his face.
"I love you too Lily. Just make sure you get him to the warehouse. We'll be waiting there," Travis said. He hugged Lily tightly and walked out. She waited a few seconds and walked back to the table. Lucas was still engrossed in his food.
"Hey handsome, I got an offer you can't refuse," she purred. She rubbed her hands on his shoulder. "How bout you and me meet after school at the warehouse on 67th." We can hang back, have a few drinks. So what do you say?" he looked at her, his eyes growing wide. He smiled.
"Lily, I had no idea you were…" She cut him off by putting her finger on his lips. "Just be sure you're there," she whispered. She walked away and made her way to her next class.
"Travis, you better be right about this," she thought.
