RFR Season 6 Fan-fic

Episode 3 – Clue Me In

I actually did think up every single idea in this episode (yay, go me!) Oh ya, except for the name Amber, but besides that, all my ideas. So, as it says in the front of most of my books: "This is a work of fiction. Names, characters, places, and incidents are either the product of the author's imagination or are used fictitiously, and any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead, business establishments, events, or locales is entirely coincidental." Basically I don't own anything and am not affiliated with anything in Radio Free Roscoe (cast, crew, characters etc.) and the series is the property of The-N and Family Channel.

Sorry about taking so long to write this one. It isn't as long as I hoped either, but I've been super busy, hope you guys think it was worth the wait!

So now that that's over with, on with the fic:

Lily was walking down the halls of Roscoe Wednesday afternoon, listening to some new music and reading her book for English. She usually wouldn't be reading a book in her spare time, but you put it off as far as she could. Her book report was due the next day after all. She was amazed she bothered to take the time to even start reading since her grades had be drastically dropping since all this relationship drama was going on. She wouldn't have really cared, but her dad threatened to take away her guitar if she failed a class. Lily understood that it must be really serious if her dad would threaten to take away her passion. For all of you that have tried walking, listening to music, reading a book and of course breathing all at the same time you might have assumed this is a difficult task. Lily tended to be smooth with the guys, but she was anything but smooth when it came to multi-tasking. Suddenly she walked right into a girl that was standing in font of her. It was surprising that Lily didn't notice the girl before since she had to be at least 5'10.

"Watch where you're going…"

"Oh, um, sorry about that." Lily bent over to pick up the girls school books, and when she did a magazine fell out.

"Wow, I didn't think anyone read this but me!"

"You read this load of junk? You better be kidding me, it's my brothers!"

"Oh umm..."

"Don't worry! Ever heard of a thing called sarcasm? The name's Amber. And you are...?"

"Lily"

"That's a pretty name."

"umm.. thanx?"

"Sorry, that was a pretty stupid thing for me to say, but I still like the name. I just transferred here, apparently they expect a lot more than my old school... well maybe I'll see you around sometime. I have to get going or I'll miss my date with River. It's strange, he said he worked around the area, but I haven't seen him around..."

"River... as in River Pierce?"

"Umm, ya. Do you know him or something?"

"Lets just say it would be an understatement to say everyone knows him."

"Okay, well I have to go, bye" Amber waved a goodbye and Lily went back to her book, but no way could she concentrate now. River, of all the people who could possibly be dating this girl it just had to be him. Okay, so she did have a list of ex-boyfriends, it wasn't just him. She had to remember that she dumped him, not the other way around. Plus he was now the assistant principal at Henry Roscoe High. So why was she suddenly thinking of him again?

Theme Song (Created by Ganzagila):

Robbie: It's all you ever hear

Look like this, act like this, do exactly like this,

But how do you fight it?

Well a year ago my friends and I started a radio station,

That's how we get our voice across

Plus we have alias…

Now we're as loud as we want

Song:

We've changed you in a way

In what we do or say

In the end we'll never make you pay

We help you

Your dreams come true

(awww yeaaah we always see you through)

When you're listening,

If you're listening,

nowww we're on the air

Robbie: You're listening to Radio Free Roscoe!

Lily: GOODNIGHT ROSCOE, I LOVE YOUUUU!

She continued walking and was mumbling under her breath

"Only five more pages. I hope the important parts weren't in the middle of the book…" She had taken Rays advice, read the last ten pages and she was going to check out the video store later that night. Hopefully the video would be there. She'd just hand it in one day late. Her teacher was pretty good with those things. She's only lose 3, nothing too big.

At this point in her book with only three pages left she got distracted.

"Who do we have here? Lily Randell?" It was River.

"Of course… and you are?"

"Not funny Lily. I take my job seriously. In the odd case that you got amnesia it's 'ex- assistant principal' to you."
"Oh, sorryyyy Mr. Ex-Assistant Principal Sir. So what are you going to do now, and why are you in the school?"

"Now? Well…umm… I was going to go to pick up my new girlfriend for a date and…"

"Oh, I wasn't implying that I wanted you to do something with me. I meant, look behind you."

Sure enough while their conversation was going on a kid was drawing on the Cougar Radio pictures behind them with a Sharpie. And now he was moving on to the wall…

"Craapp" was his response. Sure enough there was Mr.Waller, one person River definitely didn't want to see.

"Oh, and someone by the name Amber was looking for you." River didn't hear her, but she wasn't really sure if she wanted him to. Lily gave herself a little giggle, and walked away while she looked at River running away, and noticed Mr.Waller deal with the graffiti kid.

She managed to finish the last couple of pages and then she started her journey to the video store.

"Hey Kim, I wanted to talk about something." Travis approached Kim right after the bell rang.

"Nothing with those words can ever be good."

"Well it's not bad, but it's not good either."

"Okay… shoot"

"I think we should take things a little slower. I mean, the 'French guy' just left and now you're on to me. I might just be the rebound. Even though I like you, I don't think that it's really fair."

"Sure, we can slow down… it's not like we're married or anything." and with that note Kim started to cry remembering Jean-Luc and the marriage arrangement.

"Kim come here." Travis was sitting in the chair and Kim came to sit on his lap. Travis just gave Kim a big hug, and that's all she really needed. To know that someone cared about her.

Principal Waller was about to leave for the day as he passed the booth. He was just going to knock on the window and interrupt, but then decided he wouldn't. Even though he wasn't a big Kim fan at the moment, he could see that she needed some time alone. Waller remembered back to his time in high school. It certainly did seem like a long time ago. He was also a cougar radio DJ and thought of the memories he had. Sure he was never really a 'babe magnet' but he did have a few girls in the booth. They were fond memories. Figuring that she needed the time to think things over, he simply left them and the building.

Wow, maybe principals are human after all.

"Hey Parker, how's it going?" Ray asked before joining her on the park bench. She stared down at her shoes. "I guess you don't really want to talk to me. After what happened with Lily… but it was kind of your fault too."

"My fault?" Parker was outraged. "Lying to Lily was your idea, you're the one who broke up with her"

"Come on, I was just joking with you. I know it wasn't your fault, and I didn't actually break up with her, it was just acting!… but I guess it kind of ended up with her breaking up with me."

"I should have told her. I can't believe I was bribed by a pudding cup. Well that I can believe, but a VANILLA pudding cup? Unheard of."

"That's the ol' Parker we know and love. I never really knew you were much of a park person. Well I guess it just kind of comes with the name. I mean, I'm not really a park person either, last time I was here I was probably about 5..." Parker gave him a quizzical look. "Okay, okay, the last time I was here was four days ago."

"You're hi-larious Ray. Last time I was here was when Travis left the first time for Hong-Kong. It's my thinking spot I guess. Just like poo."

"Did I just hear you say 'poo'? As in 'the dog just pooed on the floor' or umm…"

"Not THAT poo. I meant Winnie, you know? Winnie the Poo?"

"That loveable little bear? How could I possibly forget?"

"I used to watch him all the time. Eyore was my favourite!"

"The one who's always depressed? Impossible Parker, you're a perky gal!"

"Okay you caught be. I was a Roo lover."

"Roo and Kanga! I remember them like it was yesterday… okay, I watched the show Sunday morning."

"I loved how Roo was always full of energy. Him and Tiger were like obsessed with bouncing."

"fun fun fun fun fun"

"But the absolute greatest think about Tiggers is"

"I'm the only one"

"I'mmm the only one."

"Perky Parker is back in the housseeee!"

"Hush up, you'll scare the little children". Parker said still laughing. The two of them looked around, and saw something quite unusual.

"Wow, that can't be normal nerd behavior." Remarked Ray. "ED! TED!" they stopped with their competitive swinging and came over to the bench.

"What are you two doing here?" Parker asked.

"We were just getting our work out" replied Ed matter-of factly.

"The babes love guys who work out, or at least the ones who answered our survey do."

"So we did some research and found out that the baby swings went cost efficient for our purposes."

"And here we are."

"Come on Ted, we have to get back or we'll ruin our exercise plan."

"Bye guys, have fun on your date!"

"WHAT?" both Parker and Ray laughed at this idea.

Was it really that preposterous for them to believe?

"Wow, you know you're life is crap when you spend your free time after school reading…for fun" Robbie said to himself while reading a novel on the hallway bench.

"You're right, I'm not big on the reading thing either." It was Lily. Robbie was in shock to see her. "Not to mention you're still at school. Don't you have places to be? I mean, I was just on my way to the video store and…"

"Lily…is that really you?"

"Well if you can't tell after how-many-years of knowing me, then I think you're going to need glasses"

"Uh, Lily…I do have glasses."

"Oh…" What started off as a bonding moment turned into an awkward silence. Lily was the first to speak up. "I'm sooo sorry Robbie. What happened between us could have been avoided."

"I didn't think you'd come to your senses so quickly"

"Ya, well I'm okay with what happened. I've dealt with it, it's in the past…"

"I'm sorry Lily, I was at fault too."

"I know… Alexis and Jordan caught me in the halls between classes. Something about a wish?"

"Oh, that…It wasn't supposed to happen."

"You mean that you didn't want to be friends with me and Ray again?"

"No way. I've had it with not speaking to you guys. I just thought I'd be brave enough to confront you two myself. I don't need my cousin and her friend to do my work."

"Well I'm glad we're on the same track."

Lily was just about to pick the video for her book when a hand reached out and grabbed it.

"Lily!" It was Amber.

"Hey Amber."

"What are you doing here?"

"Actually I was getting the video you have in your hands, looks like the last copy."

"I'm so sorry but I need it for my book report, just got it today. I only have a week to work on it. Everyone else is finishing theirs today, but since I just got here… wait, isn't it the same book I saw you reading this morning?"

"Yes, it was. I was trying to take the easy way out too." They both laughed at the scenario before them. "What about your date…with River?"

"Oh, I feel bad about that, he didn't take it very lightly when I said I needed to cancel tonight. He said he was actually busy, but I didn't really believe that."

"Well then… how about you come to my house and watch it with me? I'll pay the dollar and make some popcorn."

"Thanx for the offer Lily, sounds like a plan. I have a friend who needs to watch it as well, turns out she's in the same situation as you, waiting for the last minute and all."

"Oh sure, that would be fine."

"She's here actually, I can introduce you two." Amber looked towards the comedy section, and there stood Audrey. "Audrey, come here! I found the movie!"

Lily was in shock. Audrey? Well she couldn't really take back her offer now could she?

"Lily, it's nice to see you here." was Audrey's response to Lily's shocked expression.

"Wait, you guys know each other? This is so cool, we can all hang out together some time. When River's not busy that is."

"Um, sure."

"Okay then Lily. I'll be right back. Gonna get some gummy worms."

"That was really nice of you to invite us to your house, even if your bedroom looks like my brothers. It will be just like old times." Audrey gave a hopeful smile, while Lily replied sarcastically.

"Of course!" it came out as a high pitched fake girly voice. Unfortunately Audrey didn't seem to understand the comment. She replied with just as much enthusiasm, minus the sarcasm.

"That's Great!"

"Okay, I got the gummies. We can walk to your house right? I'll just make a quick call on the way over saying I won't be back till later."

"Ya, we can walk, just follow me."

So off they went to Lily's house. Lily, Amber, and Audrey in tow. Of course none of them were expecting to see someone when they opened her basement door.

Audrey was the only one who had the courage to speak up. "Would someone care to clue me in on why there's someone on your couch?"

Who's the person in Lily's basement?

Travis and Kim, a cute couple, a lasting friendship, or a beautiful disaster?

Grace? Where'd she go?
