There could be a fanfiction where Lucas and Riley get paired up for a school project. As they work together, they face various challenges and in the process, their feelings for each other become more intense. For example, they might have to deal with a difficult topic for the project and their different approaches at first cause some friction, but then they learn to combine their strengths and grow closer.
In fanfiction, Riley and Lucas having a baby can be a really cute concept. It might explore how their different personalities would influence their parenting. For example, Riley's kind - hearted nature could lead to a very nurturing home environment, while Lucas' more down - to - earth and brave side might make him a great protector for their child. Fanfic writers could also delve into how their friends like Maya would interact with the baby, adding more depth to the story.
Perhaps they kiss while on a class trip. They get separated from the group for a short while and find themselves in a beautiful, secluded spot. The tension that has been building between them finally erupts into a passionate kiss.
The characters themselves are well - developed in the show. Lucas is the charming cowboy type and Riley is the sweet and somewhat naive girl. Their personalities contrast in an interesting way, and fanfiction writers enjoy exploring how these different personalities interact in different situations, whether it's in a romantic relationship or just as friends.
One great plotline could be Riley and Lucas getting lost in a big city during a school trip. They have to rely on each other to find their way back. It shows their growing bond. Another could be a time - travel plot where they go back to the era of their grandparents and see how love was different then but still find similarities to their own relationship. And a third could be them facing a big misunderstanding in their friendship that almost breaks them apart but in the end makes their relationship stronger.
Another storyline could be that Riley and Lucas' baby is born prematurely or has some health issues. This would test their relationship and their strength as a couple. They would have to rely on each other and their friends and family to get through the difficult time, and it could be a very emotional and heart - warming story of love and perseverance.
One idea could be a fanfic where Riley travels back in time to when her parents were her age and she tries to understand them better. Another could be Riley getting involved in a mystery at school and using her unique perspective to solve it. Maybe a fanfic about Riley going on an adventure in a magical world that she discovers through an old book in the library.
To develop Riley further, she could be put in more leadership situations. For example, leading a school club with Lucas by her side. This would show her growth in confidence. Lucas could be developed by having him face more of his fears, like public speaking. And in the fanfiction, they could both learn from each other's strengths. Riley could teach Lucas about being more in touch with his emotions, while Lucas could show Riley how to be more decisive.
Another theme is self - discovery. Both Riley and Maya are growing up in the show. Fanfictions often explore how they learn more about themselves, their values, and what they want in life, all while having each other as a support system.
In some fanfiction, the kiss might be the start of a secret relationship. They keep it from others at first because they're not sure how people will react. This adds an element of mystery and excitement to their relationship as they navigate these new feelings while trying to keep it under wraps.
A fanfic writer might describe it as a gentle and hesitant touch of their lips at first, as if both are testing the waters. Their breaths mingling, and a soft warmth spreading between them.
