Rydel's POV
The last couple of months have been great, Lucy and Riker forgave each other and got together, Amanda transferred schools after being humiliated at prom and I got a boyfriend! So everyone is happy. Lucy has moved back in with us which means that I have my sister from another mother back to help me deal with my brothers.
It was a beautiful December day and we were all in the living room snuggled up watching TV. I lift my head from Ellington's shoulder and steal a glance at Lucy and Riker. The were in their usual position of Lucy leaning on Riker's chest and him stroking her hair. I can't help but smile at them. They are so sweet. Suddenly Ross jumps up and runs to the window. "What is it?" Asks Rocky standing and joining him. "It's snowing!" Ross exclaims. "Right so we wait for it to settle and then we head out got it?" Riker asks as he bounds up to join them causing Lucy to fall off the couch. "Uh... Ouch?" She says from the floor. "Oh crap sorry babe" Riker says as he helps her up and kisses her sweetly. I laugh at them before getting up and grabbing Lucy's arm and taking her to my room to change.
Lucy's POV
Rydel pulls me into her room and I grab some clothes and pull them on before grabbing my warmest winter coat, hat, scarf and gloves and make my way with Rydel back to the living room to meet the boys who also were in winter gear. "Lets go!" Ellington exclaims before dragging Rydel out by the hand. The rest of us follow them out into the cold. "Promise me that when we go back in you will cuddle with me to warm me up?" Riker whispers in my ear. "I promise" I answer. I look over to see Ross succeeding in putting some snow down Rydel's back she screams and sets Ellington on him. Of course all Riker and I could do was laugh at it. I pretend to double over with laughter as I scoop some snow up and prepare for my master plan. I glance at Riker who was wiping away a tear from laughing so much. "Aww baby here this'll help" I say leaning in as if I was going to kiss him before I shove the snow down his back and sprinting away for my life. "LUCY RACHEL TAYLOR! YOU ARE A DEAD GIRL!" He exclaims as he chases after me. I let out a small scream as he catches up with me. I forgot that he was faster than me so... basically I am a dead girl as Riker said before. I find myself at a dead end between the house and a fairly fake pissed off Riker. So I do the only logical thing which was to bend down and create ammunition. He edges closer and I open fire throwing one snowball after another at him trying to make him back down which failed. Eventually I was out of snowballs and I continued backing up until my back made contact with the wall of the house with Riker still advancing towards me. I then feel his breath on my skin. "You are going to regret that Lucy... I'll make you pay for being a naughty girl" he purrs. His lips attach to my neck for a second because I then see Rocky and Ross with a pile and snow. I mouth 'one, two, three' at them and then duck as the snow hits Riker in the back of the head. He spins round to face them which gives me a chance to run. "Thank you!" I say as I pass them.
After twenty minuets or so Riker and I are the only two still outside. He had pretty much forgiven me for the snow incident. Or so I thought. I felt his presence behind me. Then I feel a cold sensation moving down my back. I stand still for a moment, then I squeal and turn and sprint after Riker. "RIKER ANTHONY LYNCH! YOU ARE A DEAD MAN!" As he runs from me I hear his beautiful laugh and I can't help but giggle at it.
Riker's POV
I sprint away from Lucy as fast as I could. Laughing all the time which caused her to giggle. I feel her hands grab hold of my waist and I lose my footing on a piece of ice causing me to tumble into the snow and Lucy to follow me down. Her body gets pressed against mine and we both start to laugh. Our eyes meet and I reach up and kiss her softly. "So beautiful" I murmur. "I love you" I add "I hate you. You're an ass" she answers as she stands up and pulls me up with her. We head inside to warm up. Mom hands us some hot chocolate to warm out and we head to my room. When we get there we put our mugs down on the side and I help her out of her coat and vice versa, then we settle down on my bed. I wrap my arms around her body before kissing her neck softly. "I really enjoyed today babe" I whisper. I see her lips form a smile that she only used when she was embarrassed. "What?" I ask softly nuzzling my face into her neck slightly. "I'm still not used to you calling me 'babe'" she admits. I raise my eyebrows "why? We've been together for two months" I ask. She turns to face me as she says "I know. I never thought that this..." she signals between us "...would even happen. You were my best friend and I guess I thought that that would be all we would ever be. I never thought that someone so caring, compassionate, talented and perfect would ever be interested in me." she explained. I leaned in. "Well you better start believing it Luce, cause I'm not going anywhere without you." I say softly before pressing my lips against hers. After a moment she kisses back sweetly. We break apart and she settles back down on my chest as our legs intertwine. Soon enough I fall asleep with her still held protectively in my arms
