It all happened so fast until he pulled out the gun, then everything seemed to play in slow motion. Travis had never felt more scared in his life. He wanted to close his eyes and wait for the bullet to pierce through his body, but he couldn't bring himself to close them.

Travis' father pulled out the gun and aimed for Travis' heart, he pulled back the trigger, and just as Travis thought that he was going to die a shot rang out. But it never came in contact with Travis' heart, instead in ripped into the floor. The nurse came running in and saw all three of the occupants looking at the floor where the gun lay beside the bullet hole. As Mr. Strong was about to pick up the gun two security officers rushed through the door and arrested him.

The nurse bustled over to Travis who still hadn't moved from his position.

"Are you all right young man? He didn't hurt you did he?" The nurse asked.

"No," Travis whispered finally snapping out of his daze, "No, Ray saved me."

"Him?" She said as she pointed to the other boy standing in the corner.

"Yes, he knocked the gun out of my father's hand."

She was about to ask another question when another boy, and girl walked in.

"TRAVIS! Are you alright? What happened?" Lily yelled as ran over and gave him a bone-crushing hug.

"I'm fine, Ray saved me."

Lily and Robbie looked at him skeptically, until Robbie broke the silence, "Ray, our Ray?"

"Ya. That Ray."

They all looked over at Ray who still hadn't moved. "Ray, are you alright you look a little pale" Lily said as she walked over to him, "Ray!"

"What?" Ray said innocently.

"Come on Ray. I think I'll take Ray and find a doctor." Robbie said as he ushered Ray out the door.

Lily came over and sat on the edge of the bed, "How are feeling?"

"I'm fine. Why wouldn't I be?"

"Well let's see you were pushed off a bridge, and almost got shot by what sounded like your father."

"Look I want to thank you for helping me, I owe my life to you and Ray."

"It was no problem, if anything I should thank you."

"Why?"

"For helping sort through and understand my feelings. So here is my gift to you." With that Lily pressed her lips onto Travis'.
