STAR TREK IMAGINES

Commander William T. Riker

"Are you alright hun?"
I was awoken by Will, but Immediately I knew everything was wrong.
Will was getting dressed like a man in the 50s, the usual dark suit.
Everything just looked old, nothing looked even remotely close to the century I was born in.
"You gave me quite a fright there y/n"
"Why are we here? Where's Captain Picard? Where's the rest of the crew?"
"Who's captain picard?"
I shoved him back, as I paced around looking for something to show him what I'm talking about I ran downstairs
"Hi mommy!"
2 children gleefully shouted from their chairs
"Hi Kids.. Mommy?!"
I jumped back in realization, bumping into Will
"Your son Tommy, and your daughter Jane"
Will replied, sarcastically acting like a royal servant reminding the queen of her children.
"Is everything alright mommy?"
"Yes everything's fine"
I replied, pulling Wills newspaper out of his hand and opening it up
"Friday, April 13th 1951"
I read aloud to myself, the children started to talk amongst themselves.
I just sat there until they left, I wasn't sure what to do, until I saw an old wooden door but when I looked at the Knob, the old star-fleet insignia for leadership was painted out on it clearly.
I walked down the creaky steps one at a time until I arrived at a closet on the bottom, I cried out when I opened the doors , I couldn't tell what I cried out from, fear that this nightmare was real, panic that I was right, sadness that this wasn't my life.
Inside laid my dusty old starfleet uniform, comm badge still attached and all.
In a hurry, I got dressed in what would be appropriate clothes for 1951.
I sucked in a breath as I stepped out into the surprisingly cold weather, I trekked on regardless of the cold.
It never bothered me anyway.
"Good Morning Mrs Riker!"
Random people who I'm supposed to have met called out their hellos from where they stood.
Politely I smiled and waved but I didn't stop walking until a police officer walked over to me
"Y/n? What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be dropping little Jane off at school?"
"Her father decided to do that today, goodbye"
I got up and speedily walked away, I broke into a full on sprint the second I turned the corner.

Timeskip

As I sat alone in the coffee shop, or what I assumed is some sort of cafe like thing I thought deeply about who could be doing this.
Very quickly my thoughts turned to one of the members of the Q continuum, the others didn't know about one incident where another member of the Q continuum one who told me to call him Q2 randomly visited me one day.
He was very sweet, but he never actually explained why he visited me but told me to expect him again soon.
"Some visit"
I remarked out loud, stirring my drink with a spoon out of the corner of my eye I could see the bartender go the phone and he spoke quietly but it was easy to figure out what he was saying since no one else was with us
"Hey Will is that you? Well.. listen y/n's here, and she's been acting strangely all day think you could come by?.. alright I'll try and be quiet about it"
He hung up the phone and paused over it, I on the other hand was frantically pulling out a dollar Bill
"Oh theres no need to pay y/n"
The man brushed me off and I bolted out the door, normally I'm not this jumpy but I couldn't risk it.
I stopped in some park, pausing when some parents stared at me like some sort of crazy person.
I started to walk in the forest, following the path I got almost forty feet when I recognized Will's voice calling my name.
I started to run again, but I wasn't watching when I tripped over a tree branch the worst of my injuries was probably my dignity.
But it was too late to try and start running, Will had cornered me with those children coming in on my left.
He kneeled down in front of me, pulling a ring out of his pocket most likely expecting me to recognize it.
"Your name is y/n l/n, you were born in 1928 the year is 1952, we have been married for 4 years, we have two beautiful children, now please for their sake you have got to believe me"
Will held my head in his hands as he pleaded with me, I did feel guilty for those kids, crying for their mom but I wasn't their mommy and I'd rather die trying to get home.
"My name is y/n l/n, I was born in the year 2336, they year should be 2368, we don't have children we don't even speak to each other! now please if you have cared about me I need to get home"
I pulled away far enough and I kicked him in the face and ran from him in the opposite direction.
"Y/n!"
I could hear him yelling for me as I ran, my heart felt like it was pounding in my ears as I came to stop as some gazebo
"Oh god please! Someone please! I just want to go home! I don't belong here please just Let me go home!"
I held my hands together as though I was praying, until a hand collapsed around my shoulder in one last effort I ran and was about to jump over the edge when a new voice spoke to me
"I'm sorry y/n, I didn't mean to hurt you"
I turned around and Will changed,
"Q2*?"
He slid down next to me, and put his arm around me
"When we met a few years ago, I was enamored with you I wanted to be with you and I thought that by creating this world, in one of your favorite decades in earth history, with two kids and someone you love I thought you'd be happy"
He explained, I started to feel badly about my behavior earlier he waited for me to answer,
"I.. thank you, I mean thank you and I would be happy here, but I don't belong here and I don't want to live a lie and try to forget what I once was I would be happy to spend the rest of life with you, but spend it with you.. not someone else"
He smiled at me before pressing two fingers against my temple.
I felt my eyes close involuntarily, and when they opened again I was met by Will doing the exact same thing Q2 was doing.
"You gave us quite a fright ensign"
Will helped me up
"I'm alright now, you know I had the weirdest dream while I was out. We were married!"
I recounted the rest of the details to Will, surprisingly he listened and when he left I smiled to myself as the ice cubes in my drink formed a heart.

*Just for some clarification, I'm talking about the Q who appeared at the end of the Next generation episode "Deja Q"  he was played by Corbin Bersen, he also played Shawns' Dad in Psych
