Part 26: 411 Your Posse

She snatched up the envelope quickly and quietly slipped out of the station looking around, checking, and rechecking to make sure that no one saw her, especially Travis. She made sure to take every long route she could find so she could best guarantee running into none of her friends. It took her 25 minutes and 39 seconds to get home, but it was worth it considering what was at stake. When she was safely in her room she realized she was exhausted from running, and, against her own wishes, fell asleep and didn't wake up till the next morning. She stretched and yawned glancing around for the envelope and finding it not far away. She picked it up and began to rip open one of the sides, but a sudden knock on the front door made her hide it in panic.

"Peanut, it's for you, your friends Parker and Megan!" Came the call from upstairs.

'What are they doing here?' Lily asked herself as she made her way toward them.

"You ready?" Parker asked.

"Huh?" Lily was confused.

"Don't you remember? Today is girl's day out!" Parker explained.

"I forgot," Explained Lily tensely.

"You really should 411 your posse more often, Randall!" Joked Parker with a grin.

"If you were Ray I'd punch you," Lily stated angrily.

"Good thing she's not," Megan spoke for the first time.

Without protest Lily followed her band mates out of the house, and in the direction of, what she assumed was, Mickey's. It seemed odd that Parker had grown so fond of Mickey's especially since Lily usually only went there with Ray, Robbie, and Travis, but she supposed times were changing (hopefully for the better) and, unfortunately, that envelope would have to wait.

It was a very odd meeting for the 3 friends because not only was Megan not talking, neither was Lily. Even Parker was quieter than normal, but that was probably explained by the fact that no one else was talkingand she'd run out of topics (overusing several).

"What's on your mind, Randall?" She asked finally.

Lily, who was still thinking about the glory of uncovering whatever was in that envelope, did not respond.

"Lily?" Parker repeated.

"Oh, um, nothing really," Lily shrugged.

"Spit it out Randall!" Parker prodded.

Lily shook her head, "It's nothing."

"I'll be the judge of that," Parker replied.

"How can you if I don't tell you?" Lily smirked.

"Good point," Parker stated, "But not good enough."

Try as she might, and even with Megan's help, Parker couldn't get anything out of Lily until…

"Still worried about Travis?" She inquired.

Lily's eyes grew wider at the question, "Yeah." She responded truthfully.

You would expect that eventually Parker would get jealous and assume that the 'kiss' she'd heard so little about had actually meant something, but being the kind and understanding friend she is this was not the case. In fact she completely dropped the subject, giving Lily the option to, or not to, bring it back up. Silence filled the small table while Parker tried to think of a new subject to ramble on about, however, not finding one she finally decided to stop talking.

By the time of Parker's marvelous realization that she didn't have to talk, it was getting quite late by Lily standards. It was already 3:15, and, though she knew it would be all right if she skipped it, she had an RFR broadcast to get to if she could just slip away…

"Listen guys, I've got to go," Lily suddenly burst out jumping up in panic.

"You haven't even finished your milk shake," Parker said.

"It's just that I have to be somewhere," Lily explained with a smile and left.

"You know something, Megan? She always leaves at about this time," Parker trailed off.

Megan nodded though slightly confused.

"So does Travis…" She thought aloud suddenly, "I wonder where they go…"

"I'm going to follow her, you in?" She asked smiling.

"No," Was Megan's simple reply.
