Author's notes: This is my first story, if you are not aware. so cut me some slack if my writing needs improving. Also, I know the summary probably doesn't make any sense whatsoever so I'm going to put the full summary right here because it wouldn't fit in the actual summary even if I tried to make it as short as possible. Trust me, I tried.
Summary: After years of dating, the Winx and the Specialists find themselves drifting apart. Before they eventually break up, thinking they were never really meant to be. The Winx had found new people and seemed happily content with them, the Specialists on the other hand are still madly in love with the girls and is trying their best to move on. But when former couples are assigned to a mission where they look after a child or two that somehow wants to play matchmaker on them, will the feelings they once shared come back? Will they get back together before the bright future in store for them will be long gone?
Yup, that's one long summary...*sigh*. Well, does this story still spark your interests? No? Well, uh, okay. I understand. To those who do however, I hope you'll like this...first chapter of this story.
"-and then that was when she started yelling at me and shit!" Riven finished his story of what had happened with him and Musa about an hour ago. He then huffed and leaned back on his seat, crossing his arms. The two had been fighting lately, no surprise here. But it became more frequent and this time, the musical fairy is now the one who kept losing her temper on her boyfriend.
"And all because of an ice-cream sundae?" Brandon raises a brow, giving a questioning look at the frustrated Specialist. Riven groaned and nodded at this, running his fingers through his spiked up magenta hair. The guys are currently gathered in their dorm, discussing about their girlfriends. You see, every time one of them had a problem with their girlfriends, they would always gather around to hear them, giving advice and such, somewhat like what the girls would do. And now this gathering thing is getting frequent as Musa and Riven aren't the only couple with problems.
All of the couples aren't really much on good terms right now. For some reason, fights occur frequently, arguments and disagreements are made, giving the cold shoulder is now a common thing for them, etc. And worst of all: They're becoming distant.
Maybe they're just being paranoid. But the girls are becoming distant with them for some reason. Bloom isn't as excited at seeing Sky anymore, Stella isn't as clingy to Brandon, Flora isn't as easily flustered to Helia, Musa and Riven keeps fighting over little things and Musa ends up giving the Specialist the cold shoulder for a week or two, Tecna isn't as interested in talking to Timmy about technology and games anymore, and Aisha is just plain out becoming distant with her fiance Nabu.
Yet no matter how hard they try to get close with the girls, it's like the girls keep getting farther away. It's frustrating them, and at the same time, scaring them.
It's not like they are clueless as to why the girls are becoming distant, they know exactly why. They just don't want to admit it.
They're drifting apart.
In their 5, almost 6 years of dating, never in their wildest dreams did they ever thought of growing apart with the love of their lives. They were certain that they were meant to be; they can already see the bright future ahead of them. Moving in together, marriage, ruling a kingdom together, and of course, who would forget? kids.
Honestly, who would want to let that go? Who would not want to spend the rest of their lives with the one they love?
Yes, it's true. Even though they are getting distant, the guys still loved the girls, so much. But with the complications of their relationship and the girls becoming distant, the Specialists wonder: Do the girls even love them back anymore?
People do change, and so do feelings. Maybe it's about time that the Winx became uninterested in their relationship. Because it happens; no matter how long or great your relationship was, there will come a time where the two of you will become distant. It might take a while to realize it, but it happens.
Sometimes they wonder why this is even happening. Did the girls just get bored of their relationship? Are they not that interested in their boyfriends anymore? Or are they interested in...other men?
"Y'know, guys, I kinda get a feeling that the girls are hanging out with...other guys." Sky spoke, thinking about his last date with Bloom. The girl had been on her phone the whole time and Sky swore he heard her giggle a few time. Not at his jokes, but whoever texted her.
"Are you implying that they might be cheating on us?" Timmy questions, adjusting his red thick-rimmed glasses. Tecna? Cheating on him? He doubts that, or at least, he hopes she isn't. Yeah, he might not be the most cutest or romantic guy around, but still, Tecna isn't really the type to do that, is she?
"Musa's just probably halfway through her shark week." Riven shrugged. The guys gave him a questionable look, wondering what 'shark week' is. "Seriously? You guys don't know what shark week is? You have girlfriends! It's like a boyfriend code that says, uh," He coughed awkwardly, before quietly saying, "a girl's period."
"Oh," The guys nodded in understanding. They all have codes for that, just different ones. "Stella calls it her 'monthly punishment for not being pregnant' week." Brandon says.
"Anyway, they couldn't be cheating on us, could they?" Nabu asked in disbelief, he found it unbelievable that someone like Aisha, his fiancee, would be cheating on him.
"I refuse to believe that." Helia spoke sternly, narrowing his eyes as he looked up from his drawing of Flora. "Maybe they're just too busy."
"Busy?" Sky scoffed, rolling his eyes. "Right..."
"Just because our relationships with them aren't perfect doesn't mean they're seeing someone else." Helia responded with slightly raised up voice. He doesn't want to think that Flora, his beloved Flora, could be cheating on him.
"Maybe they're not cheating on us, yet..." Sky said, "But I can tell that they're interested in someone else other than us."
"You mean they're...falling in love with someone other than us?" Brandon frowned.
"Exactly." Sky nodded, "When Bloom had accidentally left her phone while she was going to the restroom, I got a good look at the number she was texting."
"And...?" Brandon raises a brow.
"She was texting this dude called Dominic." Sky said, "Any of you know a Dominic? 'Cause I don't, and Bloom never mentioned him, or at least, to me."
"The only Dominic I know is our old classmate Prince Dominic of the realm Ember." Timmy informed, the guys blinked at him, their expressions clearly saying that it doesn't ring a bell. "You know, Nick? The one that Riven punched after Nick said that he had pink hair?"
"Oh yeah..." The guys recalled, snickering at the memory of Riven punching a boy simply because he had pink hair. Riven frowned and rolled his eyes at the memory.
"What if he's just a relative?" Helia questions.
"There was a heart next to his name so..." Sky trails off, and is unable to continue as his phone rang. He fished his phone out of his pocket and checked the caller, it was Bloom. Sky picked it up and pressed the phone on his ear. Why in Magix would Bloom call him at this time, when he and Bloom had hung out in less than two hours ago. "Bloom?" Sky called out on the phone after shushing his friends and mouthing 'it's Bloom' to them.
"Hey, Sky." Bloom had greeted her boyfriend, like always. But something seemed off; she seemed sad, or at least, her tone of voice was. "Can we talk?"
Sky frowned, something tells him that this 'talk' will bring bad news. Bloom rarely did this, if she did, it was urgent and serious. "Uh, sure Bloom, what do you want to talk about?"
Bloom was quiet for a moment, before saying: "Meet me at Alfea in 20 minutes."
"Why?" Sky asks, his frown was getting deeper. This was definitely bad news. "You can tell me whatever you're going to tell me right here."
"But Sky-"
"No, Bloom," Sky said sternly, "Whether it's good or bad news, I can handle this through the phone."
Sky can hear his girlfriend take a deep breath. Sky noted that she sounded anxious. The blond Specialist took a deep breath himself, not hoping for the worst. 'C'mon Sky, it couldn't be that bad, right? Let's not jump to conclusions.' Sky said to himself.
"Sky, are you sure about this?" Bloom asks, "What I'm about to say is not something we should discuss through the phone-"
"Yes Bloom, I'm sure." Sky replied sternly. "It couldn't be that bad, is it?"
Little did he know, it is that bad.
"Okay..." Bloom trailed off reluctantly, "Here it goes..."
The Prince of Eraklyon closed his eyes and took a deep breath again. Completely unaware that the next sentence his beloved girlfriend would say is going to mentally break him.
"Can we break up?"
