CHAPTER 4
"And that was Radio Free Roscoe, we will be back tomorrow with more new and
exciting radio" Robbie a.k.a Question mark called into the microphone.
As Travis turned off the control board while everyone else started packing up, getting ready
to go home and/or go out since it was a Friday night.
Robbie and Ray were planning on going on a double date that was to be held at Robbie's,
they were going to have a movie night and if Lily was not going to Travis house for dinner
they would have been going too.
Travis looked to see Lily smiling at him with a funny look on her face, a combination of
happy yet nervous. "Lily you have no reason to be worried, my parents are very fair and
very open minded. You just have to be yourself and I just know they will see everything
that I see." Travis said with a sweet smile that would make Lily want to melt at any second.
"I know I'm not worried, I just hope they like me. I mean I've never had a boyfriend to meet
his parents," she said a little worriedly. Travis came out of the booth and wrapped his arms
around her,
"theres really nothing to worry about, My parents are a breeze to deal with, I mean how bad
can they be if they already let me set my own rules?" he asked with a small laugh."Obviously
not to bad, I guess I was worried for nothing." she replied feeling a little bit better as
they walked out of the station hand in hand heading to wards Travis's house.
When they get there talking and laughing the whole way, they stop on the doorstep and Travis
is about to kiss lily on the cheek and tell her not to worry but as he was leaning in to
kiss her the door opened.
Both Lily and Travis jumped at the sound of the door opening and Travis says
"Why does everyone keep doing that to us? Hello mother, this is Lily and Lily this is my
mother."
Mrs. Strong gives Lily a suspicious look "it's loving to meet you dear, I wish I
knew more about you but Travis does not seem to talk to us very much." Travis just rolls his
eyes and they go in the house. "Come on let's go upstairs, I got a lot of stuff I want to
show you" Travis said as they walked in the house,
Lily followed him upstairs in to his room "wow this is amazing Travis, I cant believe you have
been all over the world and collected all this stuff" she said turning to look at him in awe
"why are you looking at me like that? You make me want to melt when you look at me like that."
He just stared some more "I cant help but look at you, your too amazing" he replied walking over
to her and giving her a passionate kiss that lasted a few minutes till they heard Mrs. Strong
calling them "Travis,Lily Dinner time" "OK mom" Travis called back "here goes nothing,
and don't worry you will be fine" he said giving her a quick kiss on the cheek before they headed
downstairs.
Travis's mom was in the dining room setting the table, she looked up and said "Lily dear
you can sit her right beside me and Travis you can sit across from Lily beside your father."
"OK" they replied in unison. A few minutes later they were
all sitting down to eat when Mr. strong walked in "well hello you must be Lily" he said
walking over to shake her hand.
"Yes that's me Mr. strong, its very good to meet you" she replied. "Well I hope our Boy is
treating you well, we brought him up to be very respectable, and to be a perfect gentleman" he responded.
Lily smiled " yes he's been very good to me,
I don't think there's any guy more respectful then Travis, well other then you sir." Travis
smiled and so did his father "why thank you Lily, so do you have any kind of interests or
extracurricular activities that you participate in?" Mr. Strong asked curiously.
"Well other then studying and spending time with Travis, I practice the electric guitar and writing new
songs, I want to be a rock star someday." Mrs. Strong looked appalled "are you meaning you
want to be one of those drug addicted, alcoholics that sings about hell and drugs and
alcohol and other appalling things like that?"
Travis was in absolute shock "MOTHER HOW
COULD YOU SAY SUCH THINGS? LILY IS FAR FROM BEING ONE OF THOSE TYPES AND NEVER WILL BE,
YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW HER TO BE JUDGING HER, I KNEW YOU WERE GOING TO DO THIS, THIS IS WHY
I DON'T TALK TO YOU ABOUT MY FRIENDS OR WHATS GOING ON IN MY LIFE BECAUSE YOUR TOO
JUDGMENTAL."
Travis got up and walked out of the house not knowing where he was going,
Lily got up and followed completely speechless. "Travis wait" she called "what was that all
about?"
"I'm sorry if it seems that I over reacted but my mother had no right to say any of that to you,
She should know better then to think that I would date someone she described. I mean look at you; do you
look like someone who is into all the crap she described? No, you don't so I don't know why
she would say that or bring it up.
My mother has always been over protective and so far has
chased off every girl that I have ever liked, she thinks that no one is good enough for me
but you know what? Your better then good enough for me your fantastic and I just wish she
would not be so judgmental" he replied with a long sigh. They were quiet for a while as they
walked along the street not caring where they went. Lily finally spoke up "thank you for
standing up for me, I mean I was in complete and utter shock that she would talk to anybody
like that as if they were nobody's."
Travis stopped and smiled at her "it was no problem
because I care about you so much and I would go to the ends of the earth for you, I don't
like seeing you scared, or unhappy. So I do what I can to keep my lady happy." "I think I
am pretty lucky to have a boyfriend as sweet and as caring as you, you really know how to
treat a lady" she said giving him a kiss on the cheek. Travis blushed "come on lets go to
Mickey's and get ourselves
some hot chocolate before I take you back home, then I'm going to go home and deal with my
parents."
Lily grabbed his hand and it gave it a squeeze "that sounds good, just call me
after and let me know how it goes." Travis grinned "don't worry I will." So they enjoyed
the rest of their evening just chatting and drinking their hot chocolates before Travis
took Lily home, gave her a kiss goodnight and went home to deal with his parents. He was
hoping to change their minds about Lily.
