Hi! this is my first fanfic EVER! Winx club for my sister. Hope you like it. Suggestions are always welcome!

The Winx club were all out on a date with the Specialists on a cold fall night. They were strolling around Magix Park, all enjoying. Well…

Almost Everyone…

Stella, Brandon, Bloom and Sky were at the front of the group talking and messing around with each other. Bloom was arm in arm with Sky while the sun fairy was practically clinging to Brandon's side. Behind them Timmy and Techna were showing off their new cell phones and their dual-cord processers.

"So the regular digi-base of the A-500 model is almost 500% better than the A-400's," Techna was saying. Timmy was listening intently but he was mostly looking at how pretty she looked tonight. No makeup and normal clothes, but still so pretty. They weren't holding hands, but they were so close to each other that they didn't need to.

Behind them Flora, Helia, Nabu and Aisha were all talking about the new gym Alfea had put in the jungle. Flora and Helia were holding hands while Nabu had his arm around Aisha's waist while she animatedly talked about the new enviro-gym.

"I can't believe it. They even have an iridescent sphere to practice agility! Nabu, you have to compete against me sometime!" the water fairy squealed. The male wizard just laughed, nodded and kissed her agreeing to her order… err… request.

Everyone was happy and cheerful except for the last "couple" in the group.

Musa and Riven were at the very back of the group. The longing music fairy watched as the other couples were talking happily and messing around. The guys were smiling affectionately at their girlfriends.

"I would probably never see Riven looking like that," she pondered in her head. She looked over at her boyfriend (if it could even be considered that) of a year and felt the pain rushing back to her. He was on his phone and at arm's length of her, acting as though he couldn't wait for though he couldn't wait for the night to end. Whenever she got closer to him he would drift away and every question was answered with a nod or nothing at all.

The scowl on his face said it all. He hasn't said 10 words to her all night. She dressed so nice for him. Everyone was in their normal (season 3) clothes but Stella had insisted on dressing her up, just to see if Riven would notice but…

Flashback

"Oh Darling!" Stella called. She barged into Musa's room just as she was putting her hair in her two pigtails.

"Yes Stella? Shouldn't you be getting ready?" Musa asked. She was happy about tonight. Group dates were the only dates that Riven ever took her on. Sure she had her heart break a bit every time, but she still tried. Her mother always taught her to try and never give up.

"Honey, I'm always ready. Brandon loves me just the way I am", she boasts, "As for Riven…"

She stopped when she saw the look on Musa's face. She had put the comb down and looked like she was close to crying. Stella instantly felt terrible.

"No! NO! Musa, I didn't mean it like that. You're beautiful. Wait you already know that! It's just that Riven is such an ass that he never bothers to notice. It's his loss really", she says desperately. Musa sighed, pushing the tears back.

She was strong.

"It's ok Stella, you are right in some way. He hasn't talked to me in a week", she whispers. Stella watched as she composed herself before an idea came to her.

"Hey Musa! Why not doll you up!? Make Riven choke on his spit!" Musa seemed hesitant at first. She glanced at herself in the mirror. Same pigtails, same semi-baggy clothes, same make-up free face, same everything. Maybe she should change it up. She nodded making Stella squeal.

She took a step back and looked her over before snapping her fingers. Her normal clothes were transformed into an above mid-calf red top with a black waist belt and black capris. She had flats on her feet, big gold hoops on her ears and long black necklace with a music note charm. She had a short black jacket on as well. Her hair was out with big curls with her fringe swept to the side. She had on a light amount of make up making her pale skin glow.

She smiled in the mirror, feeling special. Riven would have to say something! She hugged the sun and moon fairy saying a breathless thank you. The rest of the college fairies walked in feeling awe over their beautiful friend.

"Oh sweetie, you look gorgeous!" Flora said.

"My calculations show a 100 % chance that Riven will fall head over heels", the tech fairy commented.

"Amazing Musa. Just Amazing!" Bloom said.

"Riven is going to go hard just looking at you", said a smirking Aisha. That made Musa blush heavily while everyone else laughed.

"Seriously Musa, if I were Riven I wouldn't stop staring. If I were a guy, I would tap that", Stella said.

"Thanks guys", Musa said. For the first time in a while she felt like she was pretty and not just one of the guys. They talked until they heard a knock on the door. They ran to open it. There stood the Specialists smiling except for Mr. Brooding.

"You girls look amazing, as always", said Brandon. They all went to their significant other giving them a kiss on the cheek while Riven continued to lean against the door, glaring at the floor. Musa sighed and walked up to him. He looked at her shoes, noticing they weren't her boots and looked up.

"A compliment, a word, a look, ANYTHING", Musa begged internally while giving Riven an uneasy smile. His eyes widened for a split second, before going back to his look of indifference.

"Hey", he said before taking out his phone and flipped through it. Musa stood there shocked. Not even a smirk. She could feel tears welling up in her eyes. Stella did all this work and all she got was a "hey". If she didn't feel ugly before she sure as hell did now. WOuld she always be just average? Bloom saw this and urgently looked at Sky.

He got the message and decided to distract her.

"We brought you girls something", Sky said. Riven looked at him.

"We were supposed to do this at the end of the night", he scowled at him.

"Well why do something later when you can do it now", he replied glaring at his friend, hoping he got the message. Riven just rolled his eyes but took the gift out of his pocket along with the rest of the guys. They had gotten them all bracelets.

Bloom's was blue with a dragon on it. Stella's was yellow with the sun and moon on it. Aisha's was aqua with a raindrop inscribed with a heart. Techna's was purple with an aqua world wide web. Flora's was pink with a flower on it. Musa's was red with a sparkly black music note on it.

The guys took care and put it on their girlfriend's wrists. They all kissed them in thanks while Stella practically jumped Brandon. Riven just handed her the bracelet and went back to his phone, much to Musa's dismay. She looked at the bracelet and ran a finger over the music note. She looked at Riven, who didn't look back, and smiled lightly.

"Thank you. I love it", she said shyly. Riven just shrugged never taking his eyes off his phone, even though he could feel is hear swelling. Her smile transformed into a frown as she put on the bracelet, admiring it. Riven noticed this but didn't make a comment.

"Let's go", Riven suddenly said, beginning to walk out. Musa looked as all the guys took their girls hands and walked out. She tried to take Riven's hand but he immediately stuffed them into the pockets.

Ouch.

She took her hand back tangled it with her own, feeling especially hurt. They all mounted onto the guys' bikes. The girl's wrapped their arms around their guys but since Nabu was forced to be passenger on his, he wrapped his arms around his girl. Aisha always rode te bike. Her rules.

Musa was unsure if she should, sure she had before but didn't know if he would want her to since he didn't want to hold her hand.

She was surprised when he took her arms and wrapped them around him. That was the first time he had touched her all week.

"Hold on", he said gruffly making her flinch and shudder at once.

"Could have been nicer, dickhead", Riven's conscience told him. Musa tightened her grip, making Riven cathc his breathe brfore letting it go.

He glanced down to see the bracelet on her wrist and a small smirk came to his face. But luckily Musa couldn't see it through his helmet. Sure Helia had to force him to buy it, but he was glad that he did. It went great with her outfit tonight. She looked great. Not that he would tell her that.

Flashback Over

The rest of the night was the same, he wouldn't talk to her at the movies or dinner unless he needed to insult her.

Apparently she was a moron for not knowing that the engine on a hover-bike had a magically- inflicted distributer for better turbulence.

And an anorexic for choosing the vegetarian option on the menu.

She had excused herself to the bathroom for that one. She cried and cried and didn't come out for 10 minutes plus 2 extra to fix her make-up and red eyes. When she got back she saw everyone glaring at Riven, but he ignored it. Usually she would retaliate but today she was too broken even for that.

Now they were at the park and he wouldn't even look at her, let alone make conversation. Then she saw it.

His hand wasn't in his pocket anymore. It was free! She slowly brought her hand close to his praying that he wouldn't move it away.

She quickly tangled her fingers with Riven's feeling the warmth of his fingers spread to her cold ones. She wouldn't look up at him knowing he was looking at her. What happened next caused her to snap. He quickly pried his hand away. He didn't say one word before moving at least three feet away from her.

She couldn't do this. What kind of boyfriend wouldn't hold her hand? She couldn't do this anymore. She prayed that no one noticed but sadly fate was cruel. Helia and Flora had happened to notice the whole thing. Helia was disappointed. His best friend refused to show affection to the girl he likes. A few minutes later she spoke up.

"I-I have a head ache, do you think I c-can go back?" she said, trying to sound normal. Everyone looked at her.

"Um sure Musa. Riven drop her…" Aisha said before being interrupted.

"No, I-I think flying will help. See you soon", she said. Before anyone could say anything she transformed into her Enchantix and flew away. Riven just watched her go. Why did he do that? She just wanted to hold his hand.

Helia glared at him. Helia never glares. When everyone turned he whispered.

"I hope you're happy, Riven", dragging Flora away. Riven stood there. Why wasn't he happy? He may have driven away the one girl that was able to care for him and stuck by him. He wanted to go after her, but his pride wouldn't let him.

At the end of the night, they all went home. The Specialists dropped the Winx back to the college and kissed them goodbye. Riven wanted to go up and check on Musa but he wouldn't. His and his damn pride…

Musa POV

I don't know why I continue to let him patronize me. I was in my room listening to the most depressing songs that I had, crying my eyes out. He didn't want to hold my hand. He didn't want to touch me or let people know that we were together. Why couldn't I have a passionate relationship like Stella and Brandon or a sweet one like Flora and Helia.

Was I not good enough? I got all dressed up and all Riven had to show was a "hey". But I haven't said anything. I don't know why but we were meant to be.

In the Harmonic Nebula it is said that when you meet the one your song matched perfectly with theirs and it did. His harsh but soft music matched perfectly with my techno-classical. Our songs were perfect so that meant that he is the one, but he doesn't want me to be the one.

I look down at the bracelet he gave me, feeling my mood go down even more. He told me that Helia made him buy it. The thought brought more tears to my eyes. He didn't buy it out of love, just the pressure of his friend. I want to let go, but I can't.

I feel myself fall asleep to the sound of my music.

You'll let me hold your hand
I'll let me hold your hand
I wanna hold your hand…

Techna POV

We all walked in quietly when Flora spoke up.

"She didn't have a headache", she blurted making us all turn to her, "Riven made her cry. He insulted her through the movie and dinner and refused to hold her hand or talk to her when we were in the park."

"Of course he did. Nabu said that he'll talk to him tonight", Aisha said.

"And Brandon said he will kick his ass", chimed Stella.

If only their songs didn't match. Musa told me that they were in imperfectly perfect harmony, the way their songs were supposed to be. They were meant to be. But it was killing her inside-out. When will he change…

Riven POV

As soon as we got into our dorm room, I felt a blow to my face. I looked up to see Brandon with his hand in a fist and an angry expression.

"What the fuck Brandon?!" I yelled holding my face.

"Shut up! You have no right to talk. What the hell is wrong with you Riven? Do you think that just because Musa won't leave you means that you can treat her like dirt? Like, dude, how hard is it to compliment her on her outfit or make-up? Stella told me she was so nervous about this date and that she wanted to do it for you. Did you have to call her a moron and anorexic? That's low even for you. You know she was insecure even since that whole Darcy thing two years ago, when you were a bigger ass than normal," I wince at that but he continues,

"All she wanted was to hold you goddamn hand and you weren't even willing to do that. You have never treated her right, Riven. When was the last time you took her on a one-to-one date, huh? When was the last time that you went to visit her just because you could? When was the last time you even texted her good night? I'll take a wild guess and say never. Stella tells me that she falls asleep crying every time she interacts with you and I'm pretty sure the rest of the guys agree", they all nod. She cries? The thought of with tears makes my stomach uneasy.

"Honestly Riven take a one of the many fucking hints she's given you and grow up. We may let you go easy all the other times, but tonight was the last straw. Show her you care! Or she will walk out of your life without leaving a map to where she's hiding"

While Brandon catches his breathe, Nabu puts a hand on his shoulder. I stand in shock taking it all in. She cries for me? She always has her beautiful smile on her face every time I see her. I think back to tonight. No she didn't.

She wouldn't look up at me and every time I ignored her I could feel her heart breaking some more, but I do nothing about it. I even added fuel to the fire by insulting her. It's not my fault. I haven't had anyone to show me affection. No one who cared.

Except for Musa. She always cares, no matter what.

And I pushed her away. It is my fault. All of it.

I see Nabu looking at me, "Riven, you're my best friend but it's clear to me even that you don't deserve someone like Musa in your life. She may be a princess but that isn't why."

Helia continues, "You broke her heart too many times and it astounds me that she keeps coming back. But she's beautiful and a princess, she could get whoever she wants but she wants the one guy that doesn't give a damn about her", he chuckles darkly, almost as if he was thinking out loud to himself.

"Riven, Techna told me that whenever Musa is sad, she thinks of you. She says that no matter what you do, you always bring a smile to her face"

"But after tonight, I doubt that will happen anymore", Sky continues. They all walk into their rooms after that.

I walk into mine as well. I was the only one with a private room so I could think. I go to my bed and take something out from under the mattress. It was a plain black photo frame with a picture of Musa in it.

All the guys have tonnes of pictures of their girlfriends in their rooms but I didn't. I thought it would mean that I had gone soft, so I kept the one picture that I did have hidden. She was smiling at the camera. Tecna had given it to me but I had scoffed at it in front of her, but it was my favourite picture of her. She had sparkling eyes and her hair was loose and flowing. She was beautiful and kind and funny and perfect. And when she sings, it takes my breathe away. I really didn't deserve her.

I ran a hand over the picture, feeling a small rueful smirk come to my face. Whenever she visits she tries to hint for me to put pictures of us in the room but I ignore her play video games. Just another thing I would never do for her.

But I still had her. A gem worth more than the magic dimension itself. And I could lose her.

I had been terrible to her. I hooked up with Darcy and was part of a plan that nearly got her killed. I admitted I like her but did nothing about it. I couldn't even hold her hand. I stare at the picture for a while until I realize that it wasn't enough. I needed to see her.

I grabbed my hoodie and the keys to my hover-bike. I sneak outside and drive to Alfea. I was being impulsive, I didn't even know what I wanted to do, but I'll do it anyway…
