OK, I've gotten past the recurring dream, the fighting, and the spirit crap...what else is next? Ah yes :)
Ever since that night at Ray's house, Lily kept her distance. Going to class instead of meeting the guys at the steps, sitting far from Ray in class, taking another route whenever she saw him in public. She even punched him and threw the ball twice as hard when he said something stupid. Four times as hard when he insulted Travis. After all, he was her savior. Or at least, that's what she liked to think ;)
When her metaphor dream came back one night, she was being pulled out of the mud. And she could even see who was saving her: The only and only Travis Strong. She came out of the mud clean and happy, then kissed Travis when he pulled her close.
During Physics class that afternoon, Travis slid a note onto Robbie's desk as he passed it.
Robbie- I need your help on something. Stick around at the station after Ray leaves. –Travis
Just as Travis expected, Lily pulled Ray into the soundproof tech booth to talk. No doubt she was breaking up with him, that Travis expected. What he didn't expect was for Ray to get angry. Travis had to pull him out by the shoulder when he almost destroyed the sound board and Lily ran out crying after Ray stormed on home. Finally it was just Travis and Robbie. "OK, so I've been telling you about these dreams I've been getting. I'd help pull Lily out of the mud, then she'd stumble backward and fall into the water, which had a whirlpool and all I could do is stand back and watch. Last night, it got as far as Lily drowning, and me diving in to save her. I figured out by the second time I had this dream that it was a metaphor, so now I'm scared. What if neither Lily or I make it?"
"Travis, when it came to this part in your dream, did you save her?"
"No. I woke up when I got a hold of her."
"Well then all you can do now is wait for the next part of your dream. If it helps, I read up on dreams like this and if the books are correct, then Lily's having these dreams too, from a different perspective. Talk to her about it."
"I bet that's why she's been avoiding Ray. Maybe the mud was his relationship with Lily. I also told you about those dreams where I'd be walking in the park with Lily, and she'd have a cut on her arm. Then I touch it and kiss her."
"You and Lily obviously have some sort of connection. Just try to find out more, OK? Then come talk to me."
"Thanks."
"No problem." Robbie grabbed his backpack and walked out, headed towards Mickey's. Travis sat on the couch, pondering about what he should do. Hesitantly, he pulled his cell phone out of his pocket and sent Lily a text message.
Mt me Mickeys tmrw 6.
Y?
I need 2 tlk 2 u.
K...
Dnt ?, jst do!
I'm getting pretty frickin' pissed off at the fact that I only get, what, 2 reviews per chapter? I know this fanfic is like shit compared to most other fanfics here but I can still hope, right? Just tell me what you guys wanna read and I'll put it in! You'll have to wait a few chapters because I'm in the middle of writing Chapter 11. That one's just plain humor the whole way through! Wanna see more angst? I can get my brother to break my favorite CD. Drama? Wait...this is kind of like drama...Romance! No...I already have too much romance in later chapters. Just tell me what'll make you guys review more and I'll put it in!
