Knock Knock

Ray stumbles out of bed and cracks open the door.

"Ray honey, are you okay?" Mrs. Brennan said concerned. "It's 2:00pm"

"Huh? What?" Ray said still not totally awake.

"Let me feel your forehead" She said touching his head.

"I'm fine mom really I'm just tired"

"You've been sleeping all day"

"Oh…well I didn't get that much sleep during the week and I'm exhausted"

"Well, you don't feel warm" She said and looked at him thoughtfully. "Well okay, there's some chicken in the fridge if you're hungry"

"OK, thanks mom" Ray said and closed the door and plopped back on his bed and wondered if it was all a dream. He glanced over at his desk the clock read 2:09pm.

Man, what time did I come home last night? I can't even remember…

He grunts as he pulls himself out of bed rubbing his eyes and pushing his hair out of his eyes. He takes his cell off the charger and checks his messages.

None. Aren't I popular?...

He puts his phone back on the charger and puts on some sweats and t-shirt as Tim knocks on the door and walks in.

Why bother to knock…just come in why don't you!

"Ray! You do take after me after all!" Tim said as he made himself comfortable on Ray's bed.

"What are you talking about? And get off my pillow" he said snatching it form behind Tim's head.

"Leanne called"

"What? When?"

"Earlier. Twice actually. She said wants you to come over and she told Shawna and she wants to see you too."

"Really?"

"Yea you're a stud just like you're brother"

"Yea right. Now get out of my room"

"This is what you say to the man that hooked you up"

"Yea, yea I'm forever in you're debt yadda yadda now get out" He said pushing Tim out of his room.

"Fine, later stud" Tim said as left and put his back against the door and shook his head.

God! Who says "stud" anyway!

A few hours later Ray found himself wandering the streets feeling lonely. He called Lily she was out with Travis and Robbie was going out with his family and Sam for the first time. He wandered over to Mickey's. He grabbed a vanilla shake and found his way over to a table in the corner and sat there watching people talking and laughing. Not too long after he had been sitting there he spotted some guys from the football team walking in Steve Carter leading the pack. Ray rolled his eyes.

They act like they own this town…

Just then he saw a familiar face plastered to one of team members. It was Leanne. She didn't notice him at first and Ray refused to take his eyes off her. When she caught his glance she pulled away from the guy she was with.

"hey where are you going" He said grabbing her by the arm.

"Away from you now get off me" She said pulling loose as the rest of the team laughed at him. When she reached Ray she immediately was all over him. Running her fingers through his hair "Hey, I called you this morning I wanted to see you again."

"Even though I was with you all night?"

"Yea, I can't get enough of you" she said softly. "Come on let's get out of here"

"Umm, ok" She smiled happily and took his hand practically dragged him to her house.

Two hours later….

Ray pushes the hair in her face away and kisses her.

"You get better every time" she said breathlessly.

"Really? Then lets' go for round 3!" He said and pulled her on top of him as she squealed in delight.

7:00pm….

Ring Ring

"Stupid phone!" Leanne says and gets out of bed.

"It's ok, go answer it" Ray said stretching out on her bed.

"Hello?" she said into the phone. "Yea? Where?" she said grabbing some pen and paper "uh go…ok what time?....ok…yea most likely… Aight lata!"

"What happened?" Ray said.

"That was Shawna there's a party tonight. You want to go?"

"Yea why not? What time does it start?" Ray said walking around her room still naked. Leanne has his confidence shooting through the roof.

"10"

"Wait is my brother going?"

"Probably, you should call him" She said getting dressed. She put on some sweats and her bra. "I'm going downstairs, you want something to drink?"

"Yea sure, thanks" Ray said and Leanne went down stairs he hurriedly grabbed his jeans and pulled out his cell and called Tim.

"Tim?"

"Yea, what's up?" Tim said.

"Hey are you going to that party tonight?"

"Yea, how'd you know about that?"

"Leanne told me"

"Oh you're over there. Getting addicted to it right?"

"No, look are you going or not?"

"Yea"

"Can you call mom and tell her I'm hanging with you tonight like you did last night?"

"Ah it's a favor you want?"

"Come on Tim, you're the one that wanted to hook me up"

"Alright fine I'll call her. Just make sure you say hi to me so I know you're there"

"Aww Tim you really do care about me" Ray said in a mockingly loving tone.

"Oh please just do what I say"

"You like me, you really like me!"

Ray laughed and put his phone back in his pocket as Leanne returned. She handed him a drink and Ray knew it was mixed.

Might as well right…

He began to drink it and his cell phone rang.

"Hello?" he said putting the drink down and Leanne put the radio on.

"Hey" Lily's voice said through the phone.

"Oh hey what's up?" he said watching Leanne dance to the music while going through her closet.

"I was wondering if you wanted to come over tonight and hang out you know. We haven't done that in awhile" she said hopefully.

"Uh I can't"

"Why?" she asked and Leanne came over to Ray and started to dance with him.

"Uh I'm kind of busy"

"Busy with what?" She said getting annoyed.

"Actually I'm going to this party tonight" Leanne was kissing him and went for his lips. kiss

"What party?" Ray kissed her back.

"Mmm"

"Ray!" Lily yelled.

"Oh sorry" he said a carefully pulled himself away from Leanne. She laughed and smacked his butt loud enough for Lily to hear.

"What's going on Ray? Where are you?"

"At a friend's house look, I'll call you later ok"

"Ray? Hello?" Lily said. "He hung up on me, can you believe that?!"

"That's strange" Travis said looking through Lily's CD collection for something to play.

"Argh! He said he was going to a party and that he was at a friend's house" she laying back on her bed. "I mean he's not with Robbie, Sam's with Robbie, you're with me and he's not here so where can he be?"

"I don't know" Travis said not really interested.

"I heard a girl laughing and a loud smack"

"Uh huh"

"And a party? Since when does Ray go to parties and what party would he be going to that I wouldn't be invited to"

"I don't know" Travis was getting tired of this conversation.

"I mean we have the same friends"

"Lily, it's not that big a deal" She sighs.

"I know it's just I haven't spent much time with him lately."

"I know but hey I cant complain that means you'll be with me tonight" He said hoping into bed with her.

"Who said that?" She said teasingly.

"Oh, I did" He said putting an arm around her.

"Really? I guess you're wrong this time Mr. Strong" She said smiling and sitting.

"Oh but I disagree, Ms. Randall" He said and pulled her down and Lily giggled and landed on top of him.

"I think she heard you" Ray said putting his phone down.

"Who? Your girlfriend?" Leanne said teasingly.

"No, my best friend"

"Well if she's you're best friend than how come she doesn't know about you being here"

"Trust me she's not cool like that"

"Well whatever. Just don't expect me to sneak around too"

"I'm not sneaking around I just haven't told her yet. She's been too preoccupied with her boyfriend lately"

"Aww feeling left out?" she said walking over to him. "Well I'll always have time for you" she said and kissed him.

10:08pm…

"We're going to be late"

"Fashionably late" Leanne corrected. "Plus you haven't even taken a shower yet" She said taking off her bathrobe in front of him and grabbing the clothes she laid out.

"Oh yea. Shoot I don't have deodorant or anything with me"

"Oh don't worry you're brother has some here"

"What?"

"Yea of course. Do you really think he would come home smelling all fresh after being here with me and my sister all day" She laughed as she decided what to do with her hair. "Plus he's spent the night here before so he has stuff here. Come on it's in my sister's room" She said walking out of the room. Ray followed her and when they got to Shawna's room Leanne reached down under her bed and pulled out some boxes. One after the other with different guys names on them. Leanne found Tim's box. Ray opened it and found deodorant, clean underwear, 3 shirts, a pair of jeans and Tim's cologne that Ray likes and stole from his room on occasion. "See you're all set….the shower's down the hall" and she ran upstairs to finish getting ready. As Ray showered his mind wanders…

So my brother and other guys spend the night here so often that they leave stuff here…Shawna and Leanne sleep with the same guys…at the same time?...Wait! Where are her parents?...How am I going to tell Lily…well who says I have to tell her…I have to tell Robbie!...

When Ray was done with his shower and dressed he went back upstairs.

"How do I look?" Leanne said posing for him.

"You look Hoxy, that's Hot and Sexy. Best of both worlds"

"Hmmm, I like that" she said and grabbed her keys. "Let's Go"
