Riven woke early that morning to Musa calling him on his phone. Riven rolled over picking up his phone, his voice groggy. "Morning Muse. "
"Morning Riven, sorry for calling so early but I just came up with a brilliant way to get Flora and Helia back together."
"Well, what is this master plan of yours oh devious one?" Riven yawned and rubbed his eyes as he tried to wake up.
"Since Helia and Flora have been writing all these songs, we trick them into singing for a benefit concert. The Magix magic of the arts concert is looking for a few more acts so all we have to do is get them to agree and bobs your uncle they will be kissing in no time." Riven had to admit, that plan might just work.
"Muse, I love you ya know that. When's the concert?" Riven grabbed the details and began his part of the mission make Helia do the performance.
Riven walked over to Helia's bed. Helia was wide awake.
"Hey I know it's only a week away but Musa has been trying to rally up some more acts and she was wondering if you would like to perform a few of your songs? Well what do you say?" Helia looked over at the guitar. He had written a few good songs and had one that he really wanted to perform.
"Sure, I'll do it. "Riven gave Helia the rest of the details and went to tell Musa the good news.
"Flora, you up?" Musa asked as she walked into Flora's room.
"Hi Musa. Did you need something?"
"Hey Flora, I'm trying to find a few more acts for the benefit concert next week. Do you think you would want to perform? I just need to fill one more slot." Flora agreed. She wanted to perform a song she had written and this would be the perfect chance.
Musa went and put it on the schedule when she noticed that she had one to many bands. So she put two and two together. This was going to be genius. elia's Helia
"Wait so let me see if I got you right? Because you overbooked, you decided to double book them. They are as good as back together." Riven kissed Musa on the cheek. Things couldn't get any better.
The week went by pretty fast. Helia perfected his song for the benefit and for Riven things were falling into place. After tonight Helia would be happy again and Riven's life could go back to normal, well as normal as they get for him. Helia walked to Riven, guitar in hand.
"We should get going the benefit starts soon and Musa wanted the acts to get there early." Riven nodded considering he was help Musa finish setting up.
It wasn't long before they arrived. Musa was finishing the decorations and all the other acts were waiting back stage, all but Flora that is.
"Hey, Muse." Riven hugged her hello. She pulled away from the embrace when she noticed Helia standing to the side.
"Oh, Helia. I didn't see you there. You are last to perform. Hope you don't mind." Helia didn't really care when he performed, he just wanted to.
Flora sat against a tree just a few feet from where the concert would be. Beside was an old guitar that she bought at a thrift store. She couldn't keep using Musa's for the rest of her life. She was going last so she didn't bother to watch the first part. She knew Oliver would be in the audience but she still had feelings for Helia even if he did cheat on her.
Helia sat backstage. He had the guitar he had fixed up for Flora in his hand. All he thought about was Flora. He loved her so much and wished that he had never hurt her the way he did. Why didn't he just tell her that he heard her singing? If he had only done that then maybe they wouldn't be in this situation.
Musa called for Helia to go on stage and that was when he got the shock of his life.
