Chapter 7
Alfea:-winx's dorm
"Riven!" "What are you doing here?" Musa was shocked.
"Hi, a.. I.. You are coming with me right now?" Riven spit out all together.
"What?" "You want me to go out with you? But where? To the party, not possible!" Musa said angrily.
"Damn! Who cares about a stupid party? Just come with me!" Riven grabbed her wrist and brought her outside Alfea where his wind rider was waiting.
"You want me to get on that?" Musa asked pointing towards the wind rider. "I am not getting on that!" Musa said folding her arms.
"Oh! You are!" Riven again pulled her and made her sit at the back. "Hold on tight." Rivean said.
They drove for a long time. Riven took the rider from somewhere inside the woods. Musa realized that they were nearing Cloud Tower but she was so scared that she didn't say anything. Soon they stopped a little distant away.
"Hey! What a pretty place! I didn't know that a guy like you would know such a place!" Musa said. In front of her was the ending of the lake which joined Alfea and Red Fountain.
" Yeah, I know. But this is the place which caries all my secrets. Whenever I want to say anything to anyone this the place I say everything. Here is the place which has all my secrets." Riven said sitting down with a support from an enormous tree.
Musa followed and sat a little distance away. She never saw this Riven before though she knew he was loner just like her. That he couldn't help the way he behaved. He didn't knew what he was thinking. Musa was thinking looking toward Riven and she realized he looked cuter from this angle.
She quickly stopped herself from looking at him. She knew he had a dark past too. He was a loner. She wanted to help him but couldn't. There was silence for nearly 15 minutes when Riven spoke.
"You know! This place is my faviorite place and no one knows about it. This place is the real Riven. I know you must have got hurt when I didn't ask you out but I can't really help it. I can't trust anyone though I want to. I have a responsibility and I have to work hard. I don't know but I think I want to tell you about my past. But I don't know why." Riven said.
Musa said, "You can trust me but I don't really want to force you to tell me about it. I know you are a good person inside and I want you to express what you feel freely. You always are dominated by others because you don't show them what you are. Will you listen to me? Be yourself. Sometimes I cannot help hating you too but I trust you."
"Right, I should tell someone about everything and I will. My mother left me and my sister when I was 13. My sister was just 5 then. My dad is a person who always used to drink. I was always in support of my mother and I always thought that she is always there when I needed her until she left me and Rachel. And she did it because of money. She married another man because of money. She forgot all about me and Rachel and I was 13 and now I grew my sister up. Today she is 11 and is studying in a boarding school. I want her to grow up into a good person. Every Saturday I do whole day work and everyday I work for the evenings and always after school. Only so that I can educate my sister and I want her to study in Alfea. I can't trust anyone. Idon't want to." Riven closed his eyes.
Musa was crying. She went to Riven and hugged him and said, "I am always with you. Before hearing about you I thought that I am the most unlucky person. I want to meet Rachel Riven. Please."
"You will. That's a promise. And this time I will keep my promise." Riven said.
I just hope that you like it. All who reads it please review. Thunderangel12
