Under the cut!

“Why do I have to come again?” Joyce asked as Jan tugged her towards the Lynch house. Jan rolled her eyes. “For two reasons: one, this is my first party where Riker and I are an ‘item’. You totally want to snoop and I’m letting you.” Joyce grinned, her inner shipper shining through. “Two, you totally have a thing for Ross and I plant to bother you and egg you on like you did to Riker and I,” At that, Joyce’s eyes widened in fright.

“You’re evil, do you know that, Jan?”

“Look who’s talking.”

The music in the backyard was loud and obnoxious. Splashes of various bodies falling into water interrupted the steady beat. The white gate swung open and Rydel grinned and nudged her older brother’s arm. “Your girlfriend is here and she’s brought company.” Riker rolled his eyes, but couldn’t help but grin when his sister said the word. He still couldn’t believe that Jan was his girlfriend, but he was glad she was.

“Hey Jan!” said Ryland, greeting the girl by raising his cup of Sprite at her. He noticed Joyce trailing behind her. “Oh hey Joyce! Ross is over by the speakers jamming, if you wanted to know.” He said with a wink. Joyce glared at Jan. “How many people did you tell?!” Jan grinned widely. “I said nothing, although I may have sent everyone but Ross various screencaps of your blog. Specifically posts about how much you love him.” “I am going to slit your throat if you don’t frolic away from me to your boyfriend right now.”Jan shrugged and walked over to Riker, leaving Joyce by herself.

“Hey babe,” she said, wrapping her arm around Riker’s shirtless waist. “You’re all wet,” she said, wiping chlorinated water from her arm. Riker only winked. She hit him across the shoulder and they both laughed. “Thanks for coming,” Riker said with a smile. He had had a genuine fear that Jan would not show up, that she had decided that Riker was not good enough for her. “Why wouldn’t I?” Jan asked. Riker only shrugged, not wanting to relay his silly fears to Jan.

The two noticed Joyce casually glance over at them and wave, a large smile on her face. “So, did you bring Joyce just so she could eat all the party snacks and stares at us from the corner of her eye?”  Jan laughed. “I don’t blame her, those snacks are good. And no, I did not. I brought her so she would shut up about us for a moment on focus on the fact that her love for Ross is getting unhealthy at most.”

Riker grabbed Jan by the waist and pulled her closer to himself. Joyce had slipped on her pink sunglasses, but Riker could see that behind her shades, she was looking at the two. “Joyce isn’t giving us a moment’s peace, is she?” he whispered in Jan’s ear. She shook her head. “Nope. She’s too dedicated to ‘the cause’ to give us some privacy willingly.” Riker acknowledged Jan’s point. He snaked his arm away from Jan’s waist and stood up. “Let me handle this.”

Joyce noticed Riker walking up to her. “Go back to your girlfriend, Riker. I was just enjoying the adorable scenery you two are creating,” she said. Riker only mouthed the words ‘I’m sorry’ before picking Joyce up and tossing her in the pool, clothes and all.

The party stopped momentarily to see what the commotion was. Joyce’s head popped up and out of the water. “RIKER LYNCH, I AM GOING TO KILL YOU!” But Riker was already gone, having taken the momentarily distraction of the party goers to escape to his bedroom with Jan. The two watched the scene from his bedroom window.

Joyce pulled herself out of the pool, sopping wet. “If I ever get my hands on those two…” she muttered while wringing out the bottom of her shirt. She didn’t notice Ross sit down next to her, but when a dry towel found its way onto her lap, she looked up. “Hey,” he said with a smile. ‘Oh my God, he’s perfect, I’m going to flub my words and I’m going to make a fool of myself. Crap.’ Joyce thought. “Hey,” she replied, “Thanks.” She wiped her hair and face down with the towel. “Sorry about Riker...I’m not exactly sure what he was thinking, doing that.” Joyce sighed and shook her head. “I think I have a pretty good idea of what he was-”

“ROSS!”

The two looked up. Rydel, Ryland, Rocky, and Ratliff all stood in a line, with their arms crossed. “The girl is soaking wet and you don’t even offer her dry clothes?!” Rydel shouted. Ross only put his hands up, waving his right one like a white flag. His sister shot him a serious look. “I’ve got loads of clothes that could fit her. Go offer her some, boy!” Ross looked at Joyce and smiled sheepishly. “You heard her. Let’s find you something pink and Hello Kitty themed from Rydel’s room.” He offered her his hand and she took it, laughing as she pulled herself up.

When they walked away, Rydel high fived her band mates and gave a thumbs up to the Riker’s bedroom window.

Riker and Jan, however, were not there to see the gesture Rydel made. Their lips were locked, Jan straddling Riker’s waist. Her arms were wrapped around his neck and her fingers played with the back of Riker’s hair. He had his arms underneath the back of her shirt, fiddling with her bra strap. They didn’t notice the sound of footsteps coming up the stairs.

They did, however, look up when Joyce and Ross swung the door open, Joyce now dressed in Rydel’s clothes, which were actually pink and Hello Kitty themed. “Don’t have sex, you two. Don’t have sex in the missionary position, don’t have sex  standing up…just don’t do it.” Ross said with a large grin on his face. “And if you do have sex, use a condom! We don’t want little Eurasian children running around the place…yet.” Joyce added between laughs. Jan flipped the two the bird and Riker tossed a pillow at them. The two just smirked at each other and shut the door again.

Like I feel weird for writing myself into this fic even though I do love Ross like crazy.

Also.

It is implyed that Jan and Riker have sex at the end of the fic.

The Jogan one is sci-fi which actually terrifies me because if I decide to write it out, I don't want to get any of the science wrong. And considering I'm in the 8th grade and I barely understand general relativity (which is what the fic has to do with), it's going to mean a lot of research is going to be done if I decide to write it.

And then the Jiker fics are just adorable.
