"You want to meet my dad?" Musa said with disbelief. "Why?" The couple were in Musa and Tecna's room alone sitting on Musa's bed holding hands.

"Well, I just think he should approve before we go any further in our relationship," Riven answered quietly.

"Why do you care?" Musa asked, starting to smile.

Riven rolled his eyes. "I don't know alright!" He got up and started to move towards the door. Musa got up and grabbed his arm, but he shook her off. "Just forget it, O.K.?" Musa moved around of him and stood in front of the door with her arms crossed.

"Talk to me," she said desperately. "I can't read your mind." Riven stared her down but didn't get very far before he realized she could be just as stubborn as he could. Another reason he loved her as mush as he did.

He sighed. "I've never had a serious girlfriend before. I don't want to mess this up."

Musa walked up to him and took his hand in hers. "I think you're doing an awesome job." He smiled and they moved back over to the bed. "If you really want his approval, I'll call him and ask him to come down." Riven just nodded. Musa shook her head and leaned over to get her cell phone. "Don't say I didn't warn you."

Riven was standing by Musa, shifting from foot to foot , crossing and uncrossing his arms. He was nervous to meet Musa's dad and couldn't stand still. He wanted to make a good first impression so he wore his hero suit. Musa stood next to him dressed in her usual outfitting, tube top and pants. Her dad's bus was due to drop him off any minute. Riven started to pace a little. Musa looked at her nails and tried to ignore Riven's fidgeting. Finally, she couldn't take it. She grabbed his arm and pulled him next to her. "Riven, it's just my dad! You will live, I promise! Calm down, huh?"

"Sorry," he grunted. She rolled her eyes and leaned up to peck him on the check. But he held her head there and moved his lips to meet hers. His hands moved teh the small of her back and she wrapped her arms around his neck. They were so in tune with only each other, they didn't hear the bus pull up. Musa's hands were buried in Riven's hair and his hands were traveling up and down her body. Musa's father walked up to them and cleared his throat. Their lips parted and they backed up quickly.

"Dad!" Musa yelled and threw her arms around her father's neck. "It's so good to see you!" Musa's dad looked at Riven and grunted, they turned back to his daughter.

"It's good to see you too, my dear." He was all smiles when he saw Musa. But then he turned to Riven. "And this is?" he said with a blank face. Riven turned a deep red and scratched the back of his neck with a nervous smile on his face.

"Dad, this is Riven," Musa said grabbing his arm.

"N-Nice to meet you, sir," Riven stuttered and held out his hand. Musa's father looked from his hand to him and grunted again. Riven awkwardly put his hand down and frowned. Musa's father lifted one eyebrow as if daring Riven to say a word. Musa stepped between them and spoke nervously.

"Alright! Dad, how long are you staying?"

"Don't know. A while maybe." His eyes stayed locked on Riven's and it was quiet.

"Well, we should go tell Miss Faragonda you're here," Musa said breaking the silence. Musa's dad turned to grab his suit case and while his back was turned, Riven tried to flatten his hair that Musa had messed up while they were making out. Musa's dad turned back and he grabbed Musa's arm while he walked up to the front of the school. Musa turned around and signaled for Riven to follow. He rolled his eyes but came up and walked beside her. Musa and her father had their arms linked together in a father/daughter way and they were talking and laughing about their music. "Oh and I almost forgot. I came up with this new mix that I'm dying for you to hear!"

Her dad chuckled. "I'd be glad to, Musa. I can't tell you how so very proud of you I am."

Musa blushed a little. "What are you talking about, Dad?"

"It's because of you that music is again a part of my life. You remind me so much of your mother." Musa's eyes misted over a little and Riven wanted to reach out and comfort her but didn't dare while her father was standing there. So he tried to join the conversation.

"Yeah, Musa did really well at that concert at Red Fountain."

Musa's dad eyed him. "Were you there?" Riven clenched his fist but held his temper.

"Yeah, I was."

"Umm, Dad Riven was the one that got the crowd going so I had enough power to blow that witch Stormy away."

Musa's dad smirked. "Wasn't he the one that let the witch in?"

"No, of course not Dad!" Musa exclaimed.

"Really? Because from what you tell me, he's been in tight with witches before." Riven opened his mouth to speak but Musa beat him to it.

"Dad, Riven was spelled. It wasn't his fault. Can we not talk about this please?" They arrived at the headmistresses office and Musa's dad nodded.

"Of course, my dear. Now if you'll excuse me, I'll only be a minute." He walked into the office and as soon as the door was shut, Riven exploded.

"What is his deal?"

"Quiet!" she hissed. "He'll hear you!"

"Why is he being so difficult!" Riven fumed.

"He's just being a good dad. He'll warm up to you, you'll see." She pecked him on the check but his expression didn't soften. "He's staying at a hotel in Magix so tonight we can do what we want. Do you think you can survive that long?" Riven glared at the office door and nodded. "Thank you. And it may not seem like it, but you did score some points with him for wanting to meet him."

"Could've fooled me," Riven grumbled.

Musa ignored him and her dad left the office."Now my dear, what shall we do first?"

"Well, I really want to show you my mix," Musa answered.

Her dad smiled, then looked over at Riven. "So will you be joining us?"

"Ummm. Actually I think I'd better head back to Red Fountain. But-"

"Great. Guess we'll see you later then." Musa's dad said, cutting him off. If looks could kill, Musa's dad would be dead right now.

"Guess I'll see you later, Musa," Riven grumbled. She walked up to him and gave him a hug and a small kiss on the check.

"Pick me up on my balcony around eight," she whispered. When she let go, her dad lead her away and started talking about her mix. Riven watched them go then headed back to Red Fountain.

"You should have seen this dude!" Riven yelled. Sky, Brandon, Helia, Timmy, and Nabu were all in Riven's room to listen to him rant on about Musa's dad. "Now I see where Musa gets her attitude from!" Riven yelled, pacing across the room. The other guys are were trying to contain laughter. Riven was pretty mad right now and no one wanted to tick him off even more. "If he hadn't been Musa's dad, I would have killed him!"

"Well," Helia said. "You did sorta bring this upon yourself."

"Yeah," Timmy added. "You wanted to meet the guy."

"But I didn't know he'd be such a pain!" Riven said plopping down on his bed. He buried his head in his hands and tried to regain control of his temper.

"You've only gotta put up with him for a couple of days," Sky said. "Then you get Musa all to yourself again."

"Maybe that's the problem," Brandon said.

"What are you talking about!" Riven yelled getting up and starting to pace again.

"Well, you were feeling up his daughter when he walked up," Brandon answered.

"Yeah," Nabu chuckled. "Nice move, dude."

"Right, cause I knew he was gonna walk up!" Riven stopped pacing and turned to his friends. "Guys, I'm serious. I don't know if I can do this."

"You don't have a choice, bro," Sky said. "You got yourself into this mess."

Riven sighed and shook his head. "I just don't want to loose her," he said softly.

"Musa gave you a second chance when you were with Darcy." Brandon said. "I'm sure her dad will too."
