Chapter 3

It was after 12:00 in the afternoon when Laura woke up. After getting up and getting ready for the day, Laura wondered if Riker would be back soon, but Laura just rolled her eyes. She didn't want to be the type of girl that can't go without a guy for a few hours. That would be insane. Riker would be back when he would be back there is no need to be all clingy. Laura changed into a white tank top and a pair of pink shorts, she may take a quick bike ride later, the weather was so lovely again, the perks of living in LA. She may also call her agent to see if there was anything worth auditioning for, it was still a few months before Austin and Ally went back into production for Season 2 and Laura liked to stay busy. As Laura was getting ready she heard a knock at the door, Figuring Riker would use the key he has so she was curious to see who it was, her family is out of town and so is Riker's, plus they didn't really know that Riker was staying here so they wouldn't be here. Raini and Calum were also out of town, so they were out.

Who could it be?

Laura went to answer the door and she was shocked to see who it was.

"Rocky?"

There was Rocky Lynch standing in her door way just smiling with his hands in his pockets.

"Hey Laura"

"What are you doing here Rocky? I thought you were in Puerto Rico with Ross and everyone?" Laura asked

"Can I come in and I will tell you?" Rocky said with a smirk.

Laura blushed with embarrassment. "Oh My God, Please come in Rocky, I am so sorry."

Rocky just chuckled. "It's good Laur; you got a nice place here." He said as he takes a quick look as he enters the apartment. Laura shows him to the living room and they take a seat.

"Can I offer you a drink?"

"Do you have coke?"

"Yeah I do here let me get you one." Laura goes to the kitchen brings Rocky his soda and one for herself.

"Not to be rude or anything Rocky, but what are you doing here? Aren't you supposed to be in Puerto Rico?"

Rocky shrugs. " I was but it got boring real quick just waiting on the set for Ross, So My mom and dad said I could come back since Riker was here, so I decided to come home. Imagine my surprise when I found out that Riker was staying here."

Laura stood still. How could rocky have found out? They didn't tell anyone yet.

"Rocky…"

"Relax Laur; I know Riker was helping you move in, why? Is there something you like to tell me?"

Laura laughed. "No there isn't."

"So how do you like living here on you own? I am surprise your parents would be willing to let you live on your own."

"Well they know I am responsible for my age, plus I am almost 18, so I would be living out on my own soon enough. Plus I love living here at the beach."

"Yeah it is pretty sweet. It is alright that I came here isn't it?" Rocky asked, he didn't want to intrude.

"Rocky we are friends you are welcome here anytime." Laura smiled.

"Thanks Laura I appreciate it. I may just take you up on that. So is it alright if I chilled here for a bit?"

"Sure, by the way how did you know Riker was staying here?"

Rocky smirked.

" I knew you were going to ask, I been home for a couple days and he hasn't been home so I was wondering where he was and I found out you moved out and I figured that is where he may be, it was a lucky guess."

"Oh."

"No worries, I appreciate you letting me chill so, did you want to do anything?"

"I was going out to talk to my agent but I can put that off if you want to go to the beach, I know how much you Lynch boys love to go surfing." Laura smirked.

Rocky laughed, "Yeah we do."

Rocky and Laura continued to enjoy the afternoon. Rocky was telling stories about Puerto Rico, and How Ross and his costar on the Movie Maia were flirting nonstop and in fact was seen kissing off the set. Which Made Laura happy, she truly did want to see Ross happy and if this Maia girl was the one then that is all good. Plus she couldn't help but selfishly consider that if Ross was in his own relationship that maybe he wouldn't care that she was with Riker. She knows that sounds bad, but she couldn't help it. Because that was the main reason why they didn't tell anyone of their relationship yet, was because they were afraid of Ross's reaction. It isn't everyday were your brother falls for you costar and vice versa. Laura wasn't sure on how Ross would think about her and Riker. Would he find it creepy and freak him out? Or would he be cool with it. And how would the rest of his family react to it? She was pretty sure hers would be fine with it, because her parents got to know the Lynches through Austin and Ally and they get along fine, they like Riker they even told her that. But would his family accept her as his girlfriend?

Laura knew that Riker would like to tell everyone, hell she would too. It wasn't because she was ashamed of being with him; in fact it was quite the opposite. All she wanted was to shout from the top of the roof that she was with Riker Lynch, and she knows that he feels the same way.

All she knows is that she and Riker need to have a talk soon, because Ross wouldn't be in Puerto Rico forever, and she also didn't want to hide their relationship forever.

"Are you okay there Laura? You are kind of spacing out. Are you sure it is okay I am here?"

"Rocky if you ask one more time, I will hit you. It is more than fine okay. Sorry I just was thinking about stuff, so what did you want to do?"

Rocky was about to answer when the door opened and in came Riker. Not checking first Riker called out for Laura

"Hey babe, I'm back sorry it took so long but I had to go pick up my scripts for Glee." Riker called out as he entered the living room that was when he noticed his brother was there. Laura's eyes hot up and Rocky just raised his eye brows

"Babe?"

Riker just looked at Laura like asking why didn't she let him know that Rocky was here, but Laura just remained silent. Riker started to blush "Um…"

Rocky couldn't hold it in any longer and started to laugh. "I knew something was up with you too. Laura has been moved in here for a while so Riker wouldn't be here all the time if something wasn't going on."

Laura started to speak up when Riker cut her off.

"I swear to god Rocky if you say anything I will kick your ass." Riker said. He wasn't going to let anyone mess this up for him and Laura not even Rocky.

"Riker, untwist those panties of yours and chill. I won't say anything but congrats you two. I am happy for you. Now I know were to crash since I am taking it Rike that you plan on spending your nights here for the foreseeable future. And I need a place away from the parents you know what I mean?" Rocky smirked.

Riker was about to get in Rocky's face when Laura intervened. "Sure rocky you can stay here too. Just as long it remains cool you know?"

Rocky smirked. "Listen Thanks and I won't be in the way you guys can still have your privacy, plus I don't want to see it you know? I promise it will be cool."

Laura and Riker just looked at one another. It did feel nice to have someone know about them and be happy for them. Maybe it will work out after all. Riker walked over to Laura and wrapped her in a hug, placing a kiss on her forehead.

"I missed you." He murmured

"I missed you too." Laura said kissing him briefly on the lips.

Rocky gagged. "Okay you two save it for your bedroom. I still have to eat."

"No complaining bro, this is our place and we said you could stay so you are going to have to deal." Riker snarked jokingly

Rocky smiled. It was nice to see Riker so happy and Laura was just awesome chick all around, so he is glad that they are together. It definitely will be interesting to see Ross's reaction. Because even if he has a girl already Ross particularly doesn't like to share, especially girls that he had a crush on. Rocky was no dummy, despite saying the opposite, Rocky knew Ross had a crush on Laura since the beginning. But he didn't do anything about it, so it is Ross's loss. Plus to be honest it will be nice to see Riker get something that Ross didn't. Ross was their brother and they all loved each other, but the other siblings knew Ross was the favored child amongst the Lynches. Their parents were great and they knew they were loved but Ross was special. And Riker deserved to be happy as he is the oldest and had to put up with the rest of them for so many years.

"So you are living here then with Laura?" Rocky smirked.

Both Riker and Laura were silent, yes Riker was here all the time but nothing was said about living together, after all they only been together a matter of weeks, wouldn't it be too soon to live together? And especially when no one other than Rocky know about them? But as Laura looked at Riker she decided she didn't really care about other people's opinions on their situation, she loved Riker and she would love it if he did move in permantley. As Riker was about to say something Laura cut him off.

"Yeah he does, I mean if he wants too?" Laura asked not wanting to freak Riker out. But she really didn't need to worry about that, the look on his face was one of joy.

"Definitely, I Love You." Riker bent down to kiss her.

Rocky again gagged. "Okay I am headed out for a bit; want me to pick up dinner? Pizza or Chinese?"

"Chinese please."

"Okay later roomies." Rocky said as he waved and went out the door. Leaving Riker and Laura alone for the first time since this morning.

"Are you really sure you want to move in? I don't want to force your hand and all." Laura started to babble. Riker was amused.

"Babe, I wouldn't have said yes if I didn't want too. I mean I am here all the time as is, I like knowing that I can sleep with you every night and wake up to you every morning. I know we have only been together for a few weeks but I haven't felt this way about anyone like ever. I want to be with you."

Laura smiled.

"And as much as I was surprised to see Roc here, I am grateful that he knows and is supportive is just awesome." Riker smiled. It really was great to have someone know and be happy for them.

"Yeah it is. I just hope the rest of your family doesn't hate me." Laura said.

Riker laughed. "Please they won't they love you Laura, You Raini and Calum are Bonus Lynches along with Ratliff. My parents adore you and Rydel loves you like a sister. Ross is the one that I am nervous about. But if he is pissed, it won't be at you, more than likely he will want to kick my ass."

Laura laughed. "I like to see that happen. But thanks Riker I needed to hear that I just really don't want to cause distress in your family."

"You won't. I just hope your parents don't want to castrate me. I mean I am older then you by a few years and you are still seventeen. I don't want to think what they will do if they learn we are having sex."

Laura rolled her eyes. "It is no one's business to pry into our relationship. And they love you as much as I do, well not as much but they really like you. Vanessa also adores you."

"Well it is one thing to like someone when they aren't having sex with their daughter." Riker replied.

"The same thing can be said about me, what will your family say about me for having sex with you?"

"Touché"

Laura smirked. "That's what I thought." Laura wrapped her arms around his waist. She really did love being in his arms, Riker gave the best hugs.

Riker laughed. "Since we have time before Rocky gets back, want to head to the bedroom?" Riker wiggled his eyebrows. Laura smacked him.

"I would have said yes, but that was lame my friend." Laura said as she made her way to the room. Riker followed. "I will show you lame."
