A Different Kind of Devotion (R5 Fanfiction)

Hanaa's POV, the previous night.

I lay in bed with Riker's arns wrapped around me. I was exhausted from Kristie's party, and really just wanted to sleep. But first I had to talk to Riker.

"Riker?" I asked.

"Yeah?"

"Um, I was thinking of having Rydel for my maid of honor...?"

Riker smiled at me in the dark, softly kissing my lips. "I love that idea. And I was thinking Ryland as best man...?"

I returned the smile. "Of course."

In the silence that followed, I had the sudden urge to kiss Riker deeply and lovingly.

So I did.

I took his head in my hands and pulled him to me, our lips connecting automatically. I kissed him in the dark for no good reason, just that I wanted to.

We pulled away, but then Riker decided to kiss me again. We shared many soft, sweet kisses, and I giggled in pleasure.

Halfway through a kiss, we were cut off by a yawn on my part.

"Riker, I love you and all, but I think it's time to go to sleep."

"I completely agree," he murmered, kissing me one more time before I fell asleep in his arms.

*PRESENT TIME*

I was getting really stressed out from planning this wedding. We had our relaxing week, but it didn't do me any good. I was still fretting, worrying, wondering if everything was going to be ready on time.

Riker was being really sweet, trying to calm me down and help me as much as he could. It wasn't working well, I was just so stressed out.

I just want us to be married already so I can forget all of this. Then we can just be happy together.
