Quick Review: Don't own the characters, so don't bother suing. Left off with Travis and Lily being caught kissing by Principal Waller. Robbie also saw them too, and starts to wonder a few things. Wondering if he should tell Ray or not.

Special Thanks: To everyone who reviewed my last 3 chapters. You all are the best. And thanks everyone for all your wonderful suggestions, I will consider putting some of all your ideas into my fic.

Chapter Four

'There is nothing worse than having a grown man, especially your principal, talk to you about sex education.' Lily groaned inwardly as she sat a little slumped in the leather seat in Waller's office. She glanced over at Travis, who was seated next to her, his back straight in a tense-like matter, his eyes glued to the wall behind Waller. 'I wonder if he's actually listening to what Principal Waller has to say...' Lily thought, turning her eyes away from Travis and to Waller again.

"Now, I know at your age, hormones are…Ragging in some sort and it's natural to want to act upon those urges, but school is not the place for it. The occasional holding hands and hugs are acceptable, but beyond that are not. I myself remember what it was like to want a kiss from a girl I liked and maybe a bit more, but I had self-restraint and self-control. And you two need that. If I catch you two again in such a compromising act, I will have to inform your parents. Well, off to class now." Principal Waller finished, shooing them away with his hand.

Lily got up from her seat and looked at Travis, who remained in his seat.

"Um, Travis, we can go now." Lily said, touching his shoulder gently.

Travis blinked and shook his head a little, standing up. "Okay." The two walked out of the office and silently headed towards their remaining classes.

after school, in the RFR room

Robbie sat in his usual seat in the RFR room, as he tried to focus on his set for the days show. He went over and over the lines he wrote on his yellow note pad, but his mind couldn't help but think about what happened just a few hours ago. 'Travis was kissing Lily…And it did not seem like a friendly little kiss between friends either. He was holding her so close while she had her arms wrapped around his neck so tenderly. They seemed so….Passionate, it would have made me happy to see my friends finally hooking up, if I wasn't so envious of it…' Robbie stopped his train of thought and blinked.

He glanced around the studio, wondering where everyone was, coming up with all sorts of possibilities in order to keep his mind from wandering in that area again. He heard the sound of the door open and let his eyes travel over there, watching Ray stroll in as he tossed his backpack on the ruffled up couch that needed a bit of a cleaning job done to it.

"Hey, Robbie. Where is everyone?" Ray asked, taking his seat across Robbie, looking around.

"I don't know. They need to get here soon though, we're about to start in 5 minutes."

As soon as Robbie said that, Travis and Lily rushed into the room, out of breath as they took their positions, mumbling a "sorry" to the Ray and Robbie.

Ray looked at Lily, noticing her hair slightly ruffled and her lips a little more pink than usual and sort of swollen. He shook his head and thought it off as some new lipstick.

Robbie noticed the small changes in Lily too and frowned, then glanced over at Travis, noticing his button down blue shirt slightly rumbled and buttoned wrong.

Robbie's frown deepened. 'I don't like the looks of this…'

Travis turned on the system and counting down the seconds with his fingers. "We're on in….5…4…3…2…"

"Welcome to..." Travis started off.

"Radio…." Ray chimed in.

"Free…" Lily joined.

"Roscoe…" Robbie finished, making his mind concentrate on RFR and only RFR.

"I'm Question Mark and I'm wondering….Can T.V. really brainwash children these days or is T.V. actually being influenced by the kids?" Robbie asked, letting his alter-ego take over for the show.

"Well, considering how a child's mind works now-a-days, they're most likely to be found in front of a computer screen instead of a T.V." Pronto, aka Ray, answered, smiling a little. "I mean, if kids were really being brainwashed by it, wouldn't you see more of them dressed like little Pikachus or ninjas?"

The others laughed a little at that. "The new craze with Japanese Animation has actually influenced kids' dramatically in recent years. Countries all over the world host conventions just for it and you would not believe how many people were dressed as anime characters." Smog, aka Travis, stated, remembering his life back in Japan.

"That may be true, but wouldn't that, along with other shows, just prove that kids are being brainwashed?" Question Mark asked.

"Well, I wouldn't really call it brainwashing, more like being influence by images of colors, lights and spunky characters." Shady Lane, aka Lily, said, leaning back in her seat.

Smog held up the chalkboard that read "Lindsey" on it.

"Lindsey, you're on the air. What do you think?" Question Mark asked, punching the small red button on the phone.

"I think that more kids are into that anime stuff, cause like, they even have books on it now, and its like, more kids are reading than watching T.V." Lindsey answered.

After about twenty callers, music from various artists and some laughs, the RFR gang ended the show. They all took off their headsets; Ray, Robbie and Lily stretching some.

"That one caller, the one wouldn't stop talking about the show Naruto, almost made me want to watch the show, too." Lily said, standing up and stretching more.

Ray nodded. "Yeah, almost. I'll rather play my video game Soul Calibur II though than watch some kids fight with some bad guys." Ray stated, pushing his seat back as he stood up.

Robbie chuckled and stood too, walking over to the couch to grab his grey one shouldered backpack.

"Actually, Ray, if I remember correctly, that game was made in Japan. And it sort of holds the same purpose. Good vs. Evil basic scenario." Travis said, coming out of the tech booth, leaning against the doorframe of it.

Ray shrugged. "Maybe, but I'll stick to just beating some evil guy's butt on my own instead of watching a kid do it."

"But, Ray, aren't you basically letting the character of your choosing beat the crap out of the other character, but you're just controlling the movements?" Lily asked with a slight smirk on her face.

Ray blushed a bit. "Maybe. But oh well." He shrugged again and walked over to Robbie, who was holding the thin metal door open, grabbing his backpack, heading out. Robbie grinned and followed, closing the door behind them.

Travis made his way over to Lily and wrapped his arms around her waist. "Alone at last." He kissed her cheek softly and smiled. Lily smiled too and giggled a bit. "Just couldn't wait to have me in your arms again, huh?" she teased, circling her arms around his neck.

Travis kissed her on the lips, nibbling on her bottom one a little, muttering a simple "nope" before kissing her deeply. Lily moaned softly, closing her eyes.

Meanwhile…

Ray walked along the railroad tracks leading towards his home when he remembered he forgot his history notes in Lily's binder. He let her borrowed them since she was absent a few days ago. "Darn it and I was almost home too. Oh well, at least I get to see Lily's face again before the night's over." Ray turned around and started walking to the RFR station again, a smile on his face from just thinking about Lily.

Back in the RFR station…

Travis had Lily pinned down on her back against the big table that held their headsets, play lists, three phones and a few wires that hooked up to the tech booth. He kissed along her neck, running his strong hands up her pink tank top slowly. Her legs were at his sides, slightly hanging off the table as her arms held him by his shoulders. Travis ran his lips up to her face, laying small kisses across it.

There was creak of a door opening…

Followed by a gasp…

Footsteps accessed into the room…

Grabbing of clothing happened in a flash…

A yank and a push of a body…

On the floor laid a pair of bodies…

One pinning down the other…

Punches being thrown at a face…

A girl's cry can be heard too…

"Ray, stop!" Lily cried, pulling at his waist from behind, trying to get him off Travis, with not much luck.

After a few more hits, Ray stopped and pushed Lily's arms off him, standing up. One of his eyes was slightly swollen and red from Travis's heavy punch. His nose was bleeding from the left nostril, while his shirt was ripped in about three different places, all from Travis trying to push him off. Ray looked down at Travis, who was still on the floor, his eyes holding a great deal of anger and sadness.

"I can't believe you did this to me again, Travis. How could you…" Ray asked, his voice strained, sniffing his nose to keep the blood from coming out more.

Travis sat up and groaned slightly, Ray's punches leaving aches over his shoulders and face. His cheek was red and swollen, while his shirt lost a few buttons in the fight. Travis looked up at Ray then glanced over at Lily, who was crying silently to herself, hugging her arms to her chest as she watched.

"Ray, I have tried over and over again to ignore my feelings for Lily. And for a good year or so after the…Incident, I started to forget my feelings for her and stepped aside, trying to let you have a chance…But did you do anything? No!" Travis yelled, finally getting pissed about something once in his life, standing up, staggering a little. He looked at Ray, daring him with his eyes to oppose it.

Ray's anger reached a new high. "Shut up! You don't know how hard it's been for me to hold all my feelings inside about this. And yeah, so what if I waited too long by your stand point. I don't want to rush things, like you! How dare you be so forward with her like that? You act like you're all conservative and collected, but deep down, you're just like any other hormonal male out there. Showing no respect for her at all. You make me sick…" Ray's words strung inside Travis and he inwardly flinched.

Lily couldn't take it anymore and ran out of the room, her sobs leaving an echo inside the room as Ray and Travis watched her go.

"Now look at what you did!" Ray shouted, chasing after her.

Travis heard the door close a second time and let out a frustrated cry, hitting the floor with his closed fist. He looked down at his hand and shook his head as hot tears spilled down his cheeks, something he haven't felt in such a long time. He often wondered if he even remembered how to cry. He laughed bitterly and thought what his father would say if he saw him like this. Looking so weak and helpless, like a lost newborn kitten.

Outside…

Ray never managed to catch up to Lily; he forgot how fast that girl can run when she really gives it her all. He sat on his bed with the blue ocean water sheets and two pillows the same color, thinking about if he should call her or not. 'She's probably mad at me right now. Pissed, even. But…I can't just sit here,' he thought, reaching over to his nightstand that held his silver lamp and his black cordless phone. He picked it up and press the speed dial to Lily's home, hoping she'd pick up.

"C'mon Lily, pick up pick up." Ray mumbled, listening to the ringing, then groaned when he received her answering machine.

Meanwhile, at Lily's Home…

"Hello. You have reached the Randal's. We are unavailable to take your call at the moment. Please leave a brief message with your name and number after the beep and we'll get back to you shortly….Beep."

Lily didn't feel like answering the phone, she knew who it would be. All her attention was focused on what laid in her hands as she vaguely listened to his voice.

"Hey, Lily. Look, I'm sorry…I don't know what came over me…I just….Please, Lily, pick up. I need to make sure you're okay…I need to hear your voice to tell me you're fine….Lily…." A sigh. "Okay then…I'll let you be." Ray hung up.

Lily dragged the small pocket knife on its side over her wrist slowly, tears falling down into her lap and down her cheeks. "I just want this all to end…"

TBC.
