A Different Kind of Devotion (R5 Fanfiction)

Riker's POV

I'm so thankful to Kelly. She's the one who had the idea to get Hanaa and I back together.

I was getting ready for our date back at the cabana. I donned jeans and a white button up shirt with a metallic purple tie. That's Hanaa's favorite color. I put on my black converse and went to set up the cabana.

Hanaa's POV

I put on a metallic purple sleeveless top with a black leather jacket over top that came down to just below my ribs. I put on black skinny jeans and black army boots. To finish, I put on an R5 pick necklace, along with the one Riker made me.

I started driving to the cabana, but suddenly got really nervous. I still loved Riker, but what if he hurt me again? I shook it off and pulled into the cabana driveway.

Riker's POV

I heard a car engine outside. Hanaa was here! She stepped out of the car, and I peeked out the window. Wow, she looked stunning. I ran out to meet her.

She fingered my tie. "Nice tie," she smirked.

I put my arm around her shoulder. "Nice shirt," I shot back. "I wore this tie for you. Because its your favorite color," I said, flopping it in her face.

"Well I wore the shirt just because I like it. But it turned out good. We match!"

I pulled Hanaa into the cabana, where I had set up a small round table with two candles and a single rose in the center.

I pulled out a chair and she sat down. I scooted her into the table. I walked around and sat down. Then I snapped my fingers, and Rocky came in with a silver platter and a waiter's uniform. He set down the silver platter in front of Hanaa, revealing gourmet spaghetti.

Hanaa gasped. I knew it was her favorite.

Ryland followed close behind in the same outfit as Rocky, carrying a platter for me.

When we finished eating, Ross brought out two perfect scoops of Spumoni, Italian ice cream.

Hanaa finished as the same time as me. She leaned across the table, putting her forehead against mine.

"That was delicious," she said looking into my eyes. "Thank you."

I smiled back. We were interrupted by Ellington, in the same waiter's uniform, coming to take our ice cream dishes. He smiled and winked at me as he left the room.

"Let's go for a walk," I suggested, leading Hanaa by the hand. I took her to a small clearing. "This is where my parents met..." I said.

She turned to me. "This is where we met."

Suddenly, all the memories I'd been trying to block out came flooding back. A walk on the beach. Sitting down in the clearing. A girl stumbling in crying. Comforting her. Going out that Friday.

Without knowing, a tear slipped out of my eye. She wiped it away with her finger, snapping me out of my daydream. Looking at her, I noticed she was crying too. She buried her head in my chest, and I hugged her, comforting her like that day years ago.

"The best day of my life was when I met you," a small, muffled voice came.

She picked her head up and sniffled. That Friday was my first kiss," she said.

I knew what she was implying. We sat down, and I put my fingers under her chin to tilt it up then kissed her. I felt the sparks i had felt that Friday in this same clearing. The moon was shining down, and I continued to kiss her. I wonder if she felt the sparks too.

Hanaa's POV

I wonder if Riker felt sparks.

It was just like that day 4 years ago, when we first met.

I had ran into this clearing blindly, crying because my parents and little sister had been severely injured in a car accident. I sat on the ground, rocking back and forth, sobbing. Suddenly I felt a hand on my back. I had looked up through my tears and seen the most beautiful boy I had ever laid eyes on sitting next to me. When he found out what happened, he hugged me and didn't let go until I had run out of tears.

We went on a date that Friday, and I had my first kiss. It was magical. Two years ago was when he introduced me to fans as a tech girl. We had been dating for 2 years at the time, and I was extremely happy. But no time to think about that now, I scolded myself. Now Riker was mine and I was his.
