R5 + Ryland Preferences

Preference #50- he wasnt your favorite member

Riker: "Babe can I ask you something?" Riker asked, walking up behind you. You were standing with Stormie backstage at the venue of tonight's show. You nodded absentmindedly as you adjusted something on her laptop, only half-way paying attention. "Was I your favorite member of the band?" he questioned. You looked up, startled by the question. "Where is this coming from?" you asked, beginning to feel slightly guilty. Truthfully, Riker hadn't been your favorite member. He just shrugged. "When I was doing the 'Ask Riker' thing on Twitter last week someone asked and I realized that I had never asked. So I just wanted to know. Was I?" he repeated. You focused your attention back to the laptop. "Of course you were." You lied feebly. You were a horrible liar; Riker always knew when you weren't being truthful. Stormie however, was the first to notice. "Lookin' a little guilty there (y/n)." she commented playfully. Riker kneeled down to your level. "You're lying (y/n), I can always tell when you're lying. Who was it? I'm a big boy...I can handle it." You groaned and shut the laptop before turning to face Riker. "Fine...it was Rocky!" you cried, standing up. Riker scoffed. "Rocky? Seriously? What does Rocky have that I don't? I mean...look at all this!" he said, gesturing to himself. You rolled your eyes. "Riker why does it even matter? It was three years ago!" He crossed his arms. "I wanna know why." He said stubbornly. You sighed. He wasn't going to shut up until you gave him what he wanted. "It was his hair. Happy?" You asked, brushing past him. He followed closely behind. "The HAIR? Really?? What's so great about his hair??" he demanded. You groaned as you threw open the side doors of the venue; this was going to be a long afternoon.

Rocky: "Truth or dare?" Rydel asked, turning to face you. You thought for several moments before answering. "Truth." You said finally. She tapped her chin thoughtfully for a few seconds. "Ok I have a good one. Before you actually met Rocky...who was your favorite R5 member?" she asked. Rocky leaned forward eagerly. You groaned. Rocky's face fell slightly. "Uh-oh Rock...I guess that means it wasn't you!" Ross laughed. You looked away awkwardly before answering. "It was El." You mumbled. "What was that (y/n)? We didn't hear you!" Riker said playfully, leaning closer. You sighed. "It was Ellington!" you repeated, louder this time. Kelly and Ellington were both sitting across the circle from you. He turned smugly to face Rocky. "Hah! Your girl liked me bro!" Rocky punched him in the arm. "Shut up." He muttered. "So Kelly does that mean Rocky was your favorite?" Rydel asked jokingly. Kelly just smiled sheepishly and looked away. "Wait what??" Ellington demanded, whipping around to face her. "HAH!" Rocky called. "In your face bro! How does it feel??" You rolled your eyes. "Ok, ok...I think we've had enough 'truth or dare' for one night."

Ross: "(Y/N)!" you heard Ross thunder from the front of the bus. You glanced up from the game of Uno you were playing on the floor with Riker. "What?" you called back, looking back down at the cards in front of you. He came bursting through the door of the back lounge seconds later. "What's this??" he demanded, thrusting his phone into your hands. You sighed as your eyes adjusted to the phone screen that was inches from your nose. Ross could be a major drama queen most of the time so you were sure he was overreacting over something stupid. You froze when you realized what he was having a fit over. It was a tweet from a fan that you had replied to months ago. '@(y/t/n) Who is your favorite R5 member? ;)' '@(f/t/n) Haha Ross, obviously! But I have to admit...before we met I always had a thing for Riker.' "Did you really?" Riker asked, laughing. You jumped slightly; you hadn't realized he was reading over your shoulder. You shrugged as you handed Ross his phone back. "What's the big deal?" you asked nonchalantly. Ross pouted as he sat down. "The big deal is you used to have the hots for my brother." He crossed his arms. You rolled your eyes as you stood up and sat down next to him on the couch. "Ross I had a CRUSH. A celebrity crush. I never dreamed I would actually meet you guys. And when I did, you know who I was immediately attracted to?" you asked. "Who?" he questioned glumly. You scoffed and punched his arm playfully. "You! You know, my boyfriend? The one I've been with for nearly two years now? Ross, I liked Riker before I even knew who he truly was. I fell in love with you BECAUSE I knew who you truly were." A smile broke out across Ross's face. "You know I could take offense to that." Riker interjected playfully.

Ratliff: "Hey baby, you wouldn't lie to me would you?" Ellington asked, appearing suddenly behind you. You shook your head carefully as you put the finishing touches on your makeup in the tour bus bathroom. "Of course not." You mumbled. He was silent for a few moments. "Was I your favorite member of the band?" he asked suddenly. You immediately stopped applying your mascara and turned to face him. "What?" you questioned, puzzled. He sat down on the edge of the tiny shower. "You won't hurt my feelings if I wasn't." he assured you, waiting eagerly for your response. You laughed as you turned back to the mirror. "Oh I know I won't." you replied, amused. He looked at you in confusion. "Well who was it?" he asked again. You sighed as you pulled lipgloss out of your makeup bag. "Guess." You challenged, swiping the glitterly gloss onto your lips. "Ross?" he asked. You shook your head. "Rocky? Riker?" he tried again. You shook your head once more. "No to both." You replied. He thought for a few minutes. "Well it obviously wasn't me and the only one left is..." He snapped his head up to look at you. "Rydel??" he asked, disbelieving. You laughed. "Yep." He opened and closed his mouth. "What?? Why??" he demanded. You shrugged. "Well I didn't find any of you boys particularly interesting and I really loved the way she dressed." You commented. He crossed his arms, a pout forming on his lips. You chuckled as you turned back to the mirror. "Well you know...Ross was pretty cute back then..." you teased. He scoffed. "Please. Clearly you didn't see me. I was a hottie back then myself." You rolled your eyes as you made your way out of the bathroom, Ellington right on your heel

Ryland: "So who was it?" Ryland asked, flopping down on the couch next to you. You glanced up from your laptop and gave him a puzzled look. "What?" you asked, thoroughly confused. He laughed. "Your favorite member. Before you met me. Who was it?" he asked again. You looked away sheepishly. "Maybe it was you." you said innocently. He scoffed. "I'm not a member of the band (y/n). Don't pretend you knew who I was. So who was it?" he repeated his question a third time. You sighed and looked back over at him. "Ross." You mumbled quietly. "What?" he asked, leaning in closer. You sighed again. "It was Ross!" you shouted, loud enough for him to hear this time. "Did someone call me?" Ross asked, suddenly appearing in the living room. You groaned and buried your face in your hands.
