You're My Music - A Riker Lynch FanFiction

The Party

The party started and people started arriving: their neighbors, a few cousins, personal friends. I looked over to the door and saw CeCe walking in. I looked at her and my eyes widened.

"Wow!" I exclaimed looking at her outfit.

"Hey this is everyday casual where I'm from!" She defended.

"Oh really because you wear Cat shirts and leggings... like everyday!" I retorted.

"Maybe I just wanted to look nice! So where's this Rocky guy?"

"Just wanted to look nice huh?" I raised my eyebrows suspiciously.

"Oh shut up!" She said her cheeks turning red. I laughed a little and spotted Rocky walking around.

"Oh he's over there. But I'll tell you he's not really like you at all! You're very bright and bubbly and eccentric even with new people. Rocky is really fun, and nice but he can be a little quiet at times."

"Ooh he's like the cool shy type huh?" I rolled my eyes.

"Hey Rocky come here!" I signaled for him. WHen he walked over I introduced them.

"CeCe this is Rocky."

"Hey!" She said enthusiastically.

"Hi" he smiled shyly.

"I'm going to get something to drink." I said and walked away over to the kitchen leaving them alone to chat, who knows maybe something will happen. I reached into one of the coolers and grabbed a can of 7 up.

"Hey short stuff!" Said a familiar voice from behind. He walked up to the kitchen island I was standing at.

"Hey you can't call me that anymore I'm almost as tall as you." I complained and Riker chuckled

"pshh not even close!" He said resting his arm on my shoulder.

"So how's it going for you these days?" He said taking his arm off of my shoulder.

"Fine I'm going to college for dance right now."

"Wow that's really exciting!" He responded.

"yea it's a little nerve wracking but I get through it! What about you what's R5 got going on now?"

"Well were recording our new EP and we might have this big world tour thing in the works so we'll see." he gushed. I could tell he loved talking about his band.

"Wow Riker that's really cool! Hey I saw you on Glee a few times you actually did make it on TV!" I replied. He chuckled.

"yea it was super fun but I'm really more into the band right now."

"That's surprises me you were so convinced you would become some famous actor!"

"And you were so convinced that I wouldn't!" He smirked reminding me of my lack of faith in him, and our huge fight before we left. my face turned bright red.

"yea I'm sorry about all of..." Riker cut me off.

"it's fine, it was along time ago. It wasn't either of our finest moments!" I was so glad to hear him say that. It means after all this time Riker didn't hate me. He'd forgiven whatever had happened. "So who's that chick Rocky is talking to over there?" Riker asked.

"that's my roommate CeCe she's totally into him." I informed. He laughed.

"Looks like he's pretty into her too!" Riker and I sat and talked for over an hour. We talked about college, and dancing and R5 and how we've been over the past five years. It was really nice to actually get to talk to Riker. This was the first time I felt an actual connection with him. He was super funny, and really genuine. I could have talked to him all night, except Estella came up from behind and wrapped her arms around his waist.

"Hey" she chimed in.

"hey" he turned his head and kissed her on the cheek. She mumbled something into his ear.

"I'll talk to you later okay Rian." He spoke walking away.

"ok" I replied and he and Estella walked out of the kitchen. Estella looked back at me and gave me what looked like a glare. For some reason she irked me, she seemed like one of those girls that are all controlling and hate every other girl that talks to "her man". I walked back into the living room and saw Ross talking to a boy that looked around my age with brown hair. I'd recognized him, he was the fifth member of the band, the one they met here in California.

"Hey guys." I said trailing over to Where Ross stood.

"Hey Rian this is Ellington Ratliff he's our drummer and like another member of our family." He looked over to Ellington.

"This is the girl Rocky was talking about that used to live by us in Colorado." Ellington turned and looked at me.

"You're literally all I've been hearing about for the last few weeks." I giggled a little. Ross and Ellington started to talk to some others they knew at the party. I wandered back over to where CeCe and Rocky were still talking to see if they'd hit it off. I turned my head to the corner where Riker and Estella stood fully making out. I shook head.

"ewww!" Rocky and CeCe looked over, and Rocky shrugged.

"Yea they do that a lot." I rolled my eyes and looked away from them. "He's only been dating her for a month and I swear that's all there relationship is." Rocky informed.

"Oh is she-" I started to whine. Rocky cut me off "Well actually I love him and all, but Riker is a huge player."

"Really?" I said surprised I honestly didn't think Riker seemed like that type.

"Yea his relationships don't last at all. All he ever does is fool around with girls and then moves on." I was naturally shocked and disappointed Riker had never seemed like that kind of guy.

"I don't want you ever dating guys like him okay?" A Protective Rocky said. I rolled my eyes at him

"Yea whatever "Dad" I mocked. I didn't actually think Riker was such a bad guy. He seemed super cool and nice. He, just like Rydel, even offered to help me with my dance choreography. It was Estella that upset me. I couldn't put it together yet but something about her just bothered me. Talking with him over the hour, made him seem kind, and sweet, but then when she came something changed. He left right in the middle of out conversation to go make out with his girlfriend. Rocky usually was only trying to protect me in these situations, was Riker really just that type of guy. He seemed sweet, and nice, but then he just blew me off. I honestly didn't how to feel about him...or Estella.

A/N: I hope you liked it! A little confession I aided Kindergarten and Estella and Rian were the names of two girls in the class. That's where I get most of my character names actually haha. It's actually pronounced Ryan (Rian) but it's a girls name. Anyways have a great day!! :)
