Helia sat there as Riven told everything. He knew Flora might one day find someone else but he never thought it would this soon.
"Riven, who was it that she kissed?" Helia asked.
"I don't know Helia. I'm sorry." Riven put a hand on Helia's shoulder, but he just shrugged it off. Helia stood and went back out onto the balcony. Riven didn't follow. He knew Helia needed sometime alone. Riven grabbed his phone and was about to call Musa but she beat him to the punch.
"Hey Muse. So how is Flora?"
"She is definitely seeing someone but I don't think it is all of her own free will. Before the guy showed she was singing about Helia and how she was wrong for leaving him. Riven, something is going on. How's Helia?"
"Well he didn't take the news well. I told him about Flora, which I now regret. What are we going to do? I don't think I can take Helia's moping for much longer."
"You might not have to. I have an idea. Meeting spot in twenty minutes. I'll explain everything then. Love you." Musa hung up after that. Riven looked out the balcony at Helia. He looked really upset. Helia sat there and cradled the guitar as he tried to hold back the tears. Riven grabbed his jacket and ran out the building to hid Leva Bike.
"Ok Musa what's this plan of yours?" Riven sat with her under the tree, Musa sitting in his lap.
"Well I was thinking what if we get Flora to see Helia with another girl? That might get her to realize how wrong she was and that will get her to go back to Helia." Riven agreed. It was perfect.
"How did you come up with such a devious plan?" Riven kissed her cheek.
"I thought of it when you told me how upset Helia was over Flora getting a new boyfriend. I just have to think of someone who is will to pretend to go out with Helia and get him and Flora back together." Riven smirked. He knew exactly who to call for that request. Riven grabbed Musa's waist and kissed her.
"So you'll do it? Awesome, I owe you one." Riven hung up his phone and threw it on the nearby coffee table. He went to go check on Helia and found him in his room singing.
Emerald eyes and golden hair
Skin so soft it can't compare
I hold you close within my heart
Even though right now we're apart
I miss you soooooo much
And I wonder where I'm going
Without you here by my side I am lost in the crowd
Up here on my cloud
I regret what I said
I wish I had you here with me
Hold you close and not let go
And say I love you any way I know
I miss you soooooo much
And I wonder where I'm going
Without you here by my side I am lost in the crowd
Up here on my cloud
Now I wonder if I'll get you back
Cause I can't take it any more
It hurts so bad deep inside
All I do now is cry
I miss you soooooo much
And I wonder where I'm going
Without you here by my side I am lost in the crowd
Up here on my cloud
I miss you soooooo much
I miss you
Here on my cloud.
Helia put the guitar down and walked out of the room only to have walked into Riven.
"Riven? What are you doing?"
"Getting you and Flora aback together. I'll explain later." Riven grabbed Helia and dragged to downtown Magix where his date was awaiting him.
"Helia I want you to meet someone. This is Bethany." Bethany was a tall, lanky girl. She had dark blonde hair and fair skin.
"Riven, why are we doing this? How is this going to get me and flora back together?"
"Helia, Riven did this because you're his friend. The plan is for us to make Flora and her new boyfriend jealous. Riven thinks it will make her see that she was wrong. It will be one kiss. Okay. One and that's it."
"Riven, we need to talk." Helia grabbed Riven's shirt and pulled him away.
"Dude, what's the problem?"
"The problem is, I'm not going to kiss some girl I don't even know in front of Flora just to get her back. I'm just going to have to face facts that Flora is seeing someone else." And with that Helia stormed off. Riven apologized to his friend and ran after Helia.
Helia ran around the corner but stopped abruptly when he spotted Flora sitting alone at the Café, herbal tea in hand. Her eyes were red and puffy. Had she been crying? Helia sighed. He felt awful that he had hurt her that badly. He turned around and leaned his back against the tree. Helia closed and eyes and listened to the peace, the quiet and Flora's singing?
You told me you loved me
But that was a lie
I sat on your cloud
'til I fell from the sky
My heart broke
But you don't seem to care
All my dreams
Vanished into thin
And I wonder if everything you said was true
Cause I know I've loved you
But now you've gone away
And never coming back
And I've moved on
But I can feel the attack
But I wanna live
Helia looked and saw Flora tremble, the tears dripping down her face. He was about to walk over there and apologize when a boy appeared from the café. He took his coffee and put it on the table and placed a hand on Flora's shoulder. He sat next too her and hugged her, pulling her tight in his embrace. Helia stood there and watched. Riven appeared and placed and hand on Helia's shoulder.
"Come on, let's go." Helia just nodded and walked away with Riven.
