Chapter 1 – Tension at the Station

The gang was finished school for the day, and had just started that days broadcast of Radio Free Rosco. You could defiantly tell that there was some tension in the air between Ray and Travis, but Robbie and Lily didn't know what it was about.

"I'm Question Mark, and I'm wondering...what is love? What do you think, Shady?" Robbie asked.

"Well, that's a tough one." Lily said, as Ray and Travis glanced at each other. "I think love is a strong feeling between to people, who are in a serious relationship. What do you think, listeners?"

"We will listen to your calls after this song, that some of you might love." Robbie added, as Travis put on a song.

Lily took off her headphones and grabbed her cell-phone from the table. "I'll be back in a minute guys, I just gotta step outside and call my dad and tell him I will be spending the night at Parker's house."

After Lily walked out, Ray and Travis were glaring at each other.

"Seriously guys, what is with you?" Robbie asked. "You guys have been acting really weird lately."

"I think Travis here could answer your question, Robbie," Ray snapped back.

"Ray, just because you like Lily, it doesn't mean that no one else can like her. I can't help my feelings for her. Like Buddha once said, 'One can not keep their feelings inside.' Trust me, I have tried. I never wanted to come between Lily and you in the first place," Travis said calmly.

"Well, you have Mr. Strong, you have. I love Lily, and nothing you do will change that!" Ray said, the volume in his voice rising rapidly.

"Well Ray, I guess Lily will just have two lovers then." Travis said, his voice less calm.

"I can't believe you, Strong!" Ray yelled, jumping up from his chair. "Sometimes I think that you only started liking Lily because I did!"

"Ray," Travis said harshly, rising to his feet. "You are so-" he cut off his sentence, as Lily walked into the room.

"Um..guys...would someone please explain what is going on here?" Lily asked, with a hint of confusion and worrisome in her voice.

"Ahh...um...not right now Lily, we have to get back to the show." Robbie covered quickly, as Ray and Travis sat down.

They finished the show, and by then Ray and Travis were fuming. They quickly gathered up there stuff, and left the station, leaving Robbie and Lily alone to clean up.

"Hey, Robbie?" Lily asked. "What was going on between Travis and Ray before?"

"Um...well..." Robbie stuttered. "I don't know if I am the one who should tell you."

"Please Robbie, I am their friend too." Lily said.

"Okay," Robbie said. "Lily, Travis likes you."

"Of course he likes me. I like him too! We are really good friends."

"No Lily, not that kind of like. I mean he LIKES you."

Lily froze. She was shocked. "Robbie, a-are you sure?" Lily quietly asked.

"Yah, I'm positive. They were fighting about you when you were outside."

"I-I gotta go Robbie. See you later," said Lily, as she grabbed her stuff and move to run out of the station.

Robbie grabbed her arm. "Wait Lily, is there something that I should know? You seam to not be taking this well."

"Well....um....oh, never mind, I have to go." Lily said.

"Okay," Robbie exclaimed, "but let me walk you to Parker's house at least."

MEANWHILE

Travis and Ray exited the station, and both of them were still quite upset. Travis couldn't believe that he had just fought with Ray, and told Robbie that he liked Lily. Ray was even madder. Before, he had had the impression that Travis liked Lily, but now he was sure of it. Both of them stood there, thinking for about five minutes, when one of them finally spoke.

"Argh! How...why...," Ray said, with frustration in his voice. "How could you do this to me Strong? And Lily!"

"It is not your job to make decisions for Lily, Ray." Travis said. "As I said before, I never wanted to come between you and Lily, but I can't help my feelings for her."

"You know what Strong?" Ray exploded. "You can help! You can help by moving back to where you came from and forgetting about Lily!"

"You know what Ray?" Travis yelled back, moving closer to Ray. "There are two things you need to know. Number one, if you call me Strong ONE MORE TIME you will regret it! And number two, I could never, and will never ever forget about Lily. She is the most beautiful thing I have ever seen. You can't just forget about her."

In the background, Ray and Travis heard a small cough. They turned around, and saw Robbie and Lily standing just outside the station door.

"How long have you guys been standing there?" Travis asked.

"Long enough!" yelled Lily, and with tears streaming down her face, ran down the alleyway.

"Lily!" Ray called out. "Come back!"

Robbie grabbed his arm. "Listen Ray, but I think Lily just needs some time to cool off. She heard everything you and Travis just said."

"Oh no." Travis said, and hurried down the alleyway and walked out of site.
