(Ray's POV)
One word: Waller!
How could we have let this happen?
He just busted into the station this afternoon like he was Dangerman with all his powers intact. He had a look on his face of disappointment and anger but the expression that showed the most was fear.
Waller was afraid of us. I mean is there really anything he can do?
Sure, he now has us pinned, pushed in the corner, an ant under a magnifying glass, an accused under the lamp, a deer in headlights.
He had the information he needed.
The information he had hunted for a year.
He had our identities.
Our names.
Our faces.
Our permanent records.
We thought he was bluffing before but with this news, what will the angry nerd with the grown out Afro do to get his revenge?
Who knows?
And on top of all this Lily is seated in the chair next to me. Lately I have felt so uncomfortable around her. What happened to our relationship? Our friendship was what Robbie called a "lifetime friendship" but lately it has suffered. I see it with her and me. I see it with her and Travis. I even see it with her and Robbie. Something has gotten into her and I don't like it. Lately it is like we were put on earth to live in the circle of Lily.
Lily.
Saying her name doesn't do what it use to.
Maybe I'll try it again.
Lily.
Nope. Maybe we were just meant to be friends.... But without RFR, how will even our friendship survive?
We are long lost.
Lost at sea.
Lost in the night.
Lost in the forest.
Lost in feelings.
Lost in regret.
Lost in confusion.
Lost in pain.
Lost in hurt.
I am describing both our friendship and our radio careers.
Just lost.
