Fandom/Pairings: Original; Riley/Jessica
Rating: PG-13
Pre-Notes: So
paranomasias and I have this fictional band named PANTIES. All you need to know is that it's an all girl band with a male bassist that crossdresses/has a twin sister who is used in photoshoots
Disclaimer: This does, actually, belong to me.
Summary: Riley's life is hard.
Riley watches as Anna very carefully covers her neck in meticulously-placed hickeys painted on with makeup and rolls her eyes. Anna catches Riley's eye in the mirror and smiles, laughing. She gives Riley a grin in the mirror.
"Alex said I needed to look debauched on stage. I'm just playing along with our image, Riley."
"No one ever notices anything but your panties," Riley rolls her eyes again, "you're doing a whole lot of work for no reason."
"I bet you five bucks," Anna says as she puts the finishing touches on her hickey, "that at least one person will flail over this and write fic of me and Jessica."
"That's a loser's bet," Riley leans against the frame of the door, "because someone always does and then I would be out five bucks. Has Alex seen your handiwork yet?"
Anna straightens, pulling her phone from her pocket, "Nope. I was just about to text him a photo."
She takes a picture, suggestive and very Myspace camwhore. Riley is always sort of amazed that that Anna can pull that off without bursting into laughter, but then she remembers that Anna is the the reason PANTIES is what it is and that Anna is kind of an amazing actor. She's almost nothing like the image she presents. Riley's phone buzzes, and she checks it.
". . . You sent the photo to twitter, not Alex."
"I know," Anna grins, "It's faster that way."
"Quote 'had a rough night, but i'm pumped for tonight's show xoxo gstring.' unquote. PR is going to hate you."
"Nah," Anna laughs, "they love me. I am the lifeblood of PANTIES."
Anna breezes out of the room then. She attempts to smack Riley's ass, but Riley steps out of the way and glares at her. Instead of being offended, though, Anna just grins and blows Riley a kiss before disappearing off to soundcheck. Reluctantly, Riley trails after her. She has to make sure no one fucks up anything, which they are very prone to do because PANTIES is a high-energy band and Anna tends to knock things over and trip over cords that haven't been properly taped down.
Regardless of how stupidly difficult her job is sometimes, especially since she has to masquerade as her brother sometimes, Riley would not trade her job to anyone in the world. It has nothing to do with Jessica being the hottest girl Riley knows.
Don't believe Anna's lies.
