(A/N) This is going to sound weird; but, this story has two endings. One ends with them as friends and the other as lovers. Review and tell me which is better. Thanks for sticking with me til the end! :D

Chapter 10: And Now…

Aisha woke up to the concerned looks of her friends. Aisha groaned. Her head was throbbing. She didn't remember anything after arguing with Riven. Where was he anyway? She touched her head; and, to her surprise and delight her hand was swaddled in thick curls.

"Well?" inquired Tecna

Aisha looked at her hands, her slender and mocha hands. HERS! She ran her fingers through her hair before looking at her hands again. She jumped up and dashes to the bathroom to the mirror. It worked. There was her face: her blue eyes, curly brown hair and thick lips. She could hardly contain her joy! Aisha jumped up before transforming into her Belivix form and flew around the room. She did a victory dance.

"It worked! I'm back!" The Winx ran to her, embracing her tightly in joy, and apologizing for not catching on sooner.

"I'm back too, by the way." Riven groaned feeling his own bruised from their fall. Aisha laughed and looked at him. It was definitely good to see him.

Brandon put his arm around Riven. "Come on, you know you could have throttled us if you woke up to us watching you sleep, bro."

"Could that statement be any more stalkerish?" Stella laughed. She turned to Aisha and pouted. "I'm sorry for everything. I'm actually stunned that my excellent intuition didn't pick this up sooner."

Aisha hugged her. "It's okay, Stella."

"I already called Musa to explain everything." Stella reassured.

"Me too." Said Bloom

"She just needs to answer her phone." Tecna confirmed, shaking her head.

"It doesn't matter." Riven said pretending not to care. Aisha rolled her eyes. Riven smiled. He was so happy to see her doing that in her own body.

Ending 1: Friends

Riven finished another book and tossed it on the floor. The Feminist Mystique He couldn't explain it. Usually Riven's alone time would be spent watching an action packed series or training. Lately, his interests became more serious. He started reading books with a slight feminist plots or with strong female characters: two biographies on Joan of Arcadia, Carmen, and books by Beverley Jenkins. Beverley Jenkins' books took him by the most surprise; but, he was addicted to them now. He'd never admit it though.

Riven wasn't stupid. He knew why he was so interested in those books; however, he wasn't going to call her. Aisha moved out immediately after they got their bodies back. They hadn't said anything to each other except in passing. She did call him once; but, he assumed it was for something she left. He didn't answer because she could have Musa get whatever it was. Things were back to normal now. They weren't friends before and were barely civil during the curse. Was it odd that he missed her company? Riven and Aisha did have a lot in common despite their differences. They were both headstrong and athletic. They also had a dark side and a common link through their closeness to Nabu. Their clashing personalities made sure there was never a dull moment.

Aisha would never let him live it down if she knew what he was reading. He was surprised she didn't say I told you so when he and Musa got back together. He couldn't help himself. He loved Musa. Riven grabbed a tennis ball and tossed it up and caught it. The room seemed massive without his roommate; but, he didn't think about it long because the fairy in question fluttered through his window.

"Hey" Aisha said walking towards him.

"What are you doing here?" Riven asked mainly through shock.

"I could leave." Aisha said floating.

"No, wait-" Riven said grabbing the ribbons on her Harmonix transformation to stop her.

Aisha floated down and tossed a deck of cards at him. "You should really answer your phone. I was wondering if you wanted to play cards. I got these a few days ago and thought you were due for another whipping."

"Aww, poor Aisha. Are you confusing the dreams Piff gives you as reality? I might have gone easy on you if you weren't so full of yourself. You know I'm made of 'win'."

"Really, I was you for about 2 months and I found out something interesting." Aisha said dealing out cards.

"Which is?"

"You suck."

Riven thumped her on the nose. "You're worse; but, I do miss flying and Morphix. I was better at it than you."

"YOU COULDN'T EVEN DO ENCHANTIX!" Aisha screamed in disbelief.

"Yet! I was a fucking bloodbender though." Riven corrected her. He looked at the hand he was dealt. "You're saying, you miss nothing about me?"

"Yeah, no period."

"Nice." Riven deadpanned. "I'm glad this is over."

"Me too,"

"It was like a badly written story, one I'll never relive again."

"Agreed." Aisha seconded.

Ending 2: Lovers

Aisha had just packed up the last of her things. It looked so much bigger now that her things aren't with his. Aisha looked it over just to make sure there was nothing else left. She didn't need any reason to come back to this room. This horrid chapter of her life was officially over. Riven stood beside her and looked around. He shook his head before going to his stereo. Suddenly, Dive In by Trey Songz blasted through his speakers. Aisha stifled a blush before retrieving her iPod. Riven laughed. Aisha turned around to hide her embarrassment and put her iPod in with the rest of her things. "Well that's all of it."

"It's not that big of a deal. You aren't that far." Riven reasoned.

"Yes, but I don't want to step foot into this room again."

"And to think I was going to ask you to stay. I'm crushed." Riven's voice was laced with sarcasm.

Aisha rolled her eyes. "Ha, ha. I don't know why I'm doing this. You moved my stuff here in the first place."

He noticed she was still looking at him. She placed her hands on her hips and widened her eyes. "What?"

"Well."

"Well, what?"

Aisha scoffed and shook her head. "You should move it back."

"I used Morphix. I don't have that anymore. So you're on your own." Riven smirked and got in her face. "Unless you can't handle it."

Aisha changed into her Winx form. She picked all of her things up before turning to him. She lifted her hand and a blast of Morphix threw him away from her and against his wall. "Oh sorry. Did that hurt?"

"What'd you do that for?!" Riven groaned.

"To thank you" Aisha tried to hide her chuckles "for everything."

Riven watched her as she walked away. He couldn't keep his eyes off her legs or that cocky swish she made in what she thought was a victory. Riven got up and closed his door. He shouldn't think of such things. Aisha was pure trouble.

One Week Later…

Aisha was watching Piff shakily stand. Piff was unsure what to do now. Aisha's eyes shone with pride and assurance. "Come on, you can do it." She encouraged. Piff nodded and took one step. She trembled a little before taking another. Aisha held her breath and continued to watch Piff toddle towards her. Once she made it, Aisha scooped her in her arms and twirled around. "Good job! I'm so proud of you!" Aisha kissed her cheek and ran towards the door.

Aisha swung the door open and saw Riven standing in the doorway. She smiled nervously. They didn't really end on good terms. Thinking back it was kind of childish and unnecessary. She giggled, funny too. "Hey."

"Hi, do you want me to get Musa?"

"No, I'm with who I want to be." Riven said looking at her. Aisha's eye widened. Riven turned to the pixie that was reaching for him. "And here she is." He took Piff from Aisha and walked inside. Aisha sucked her teeth and closed the door behind him. "How's my favorite girl?"

Piff squealed and didn't say anything he could understand. Aisha smiled and walked to her them. "She's good and walking."

"Walking? You're one cool baby." Riven said lifting her up in the air. "You want to go celebrate?" Piff squealed again.

"Celebrate?"

Riven barely looked at Aisha. "I guess you can come too."

Aisha took Piff from Riven. "Where are you planning on going?"

"I don't know. The zoo or something." Aisha's eyebrow raised. "You got to take the kid out some time, Aisha."

"Excuse me? I remember you saying I coddle her." Aisha reminded him before shaking her head. "Whatever, we'll go. She'll be sleep through most of it though."

"That's what pictures are for. Hurry up and get ready."

"Hold on, I'm going to invite the other-"

"No!" Aisha looked at him questionably. "I only have enough for us and Piff."

"Okay… You know, you don't have to do this." Aisha said feeling a little guilty.

"Just hurry up before I change my mind."

Aisha nodded before heading to her room. She pulled out a red baby tee, green cargo shorts, yellow Converses and a pink scrunchie. It wasn't until she dressed Piff in a purple jumper than she wondered why she was doing this. She and Riven would be arguing the whole day! Despite what he may thing she did have better things to do than yell at him. It would be nice for Piff to see the animals though. She lightened up and grabbed Piff's baby bag.

'Okay this was odd.' Riven thought as he watched Aisha and Piff look at monkeys. He didn't know what possessed him to take her out. He didn't even really like her. Okay, that was a lie, maybe he liked her a little. Aisha turned around and signaled him to join her and Piff. Piff smiled at him. Okay, maybe he liked her more than a little.

They walked around more taking pictures of the animals. Showing them to Piff. They'd only seen half of the zoo when Piff fell asleep. Riven bought a vanilla cone before sitting next to her.

"Thanks." Aisha said while rocking Piff.

"For what?" Riven asked licking it from the top.

"Taking us here. It was nice." Aisha said genuinely.

"Don't mention it." Riven looked at her. "Are you having fun?"

"Not really." Aisha said honestly. "It was nice; but, I only came for Piff. I prefer more lively settings."

"Sucks to be you." Riven said turning back to his icecream. "I could let one of the tigers out to make it more lively." Aisha looked at him in disbelief. "Or maybe I'll put a tiger, lion and wolf together see who'll win. Lively enough?"

Aisha burst into laughter. "That's extreme. I'd have more fun if you bought me icecream."

Riven smirked and licked his. "I'd rather release the animals." Aisha rolled her eyes and watched him eat his ice cream. "It's so good." He teased.

"I don't care."

"Yes, you do." Riven handed the cone to her.

"What am I supposed to do with this?!"

"Eat it. I know you can't be squeamish. We shared a room and a body. Just take it; I'm not buying you one."

Aisha frowned before taking it. He did have a point. Riven leaned back in satisfaction. Aisha was trying to hide her blush as she ate the ice cream; she handed it back to him and wiped her mouth. Riven finished it and tossed the napkin in the trash. "Nice shot."

"I know." Riven replied

"A "thanks" would have sufficed."

"You're welcome." Riven said cheekily.

"You get on my nerves!"

"Aww, they are so cute. Aren't they, Clint?" An elderly woman looked at them with pure adoration in her grey eyes.

"Leave them alone, Margret. You'll wake the baby." Clint scolded his wife who simply ignored him and cooed over them. "She is precious. How old is she?"

Aisha rubbed Piff's back. "Around 14 months."

"Congratulations, enjoy these moments, soon, she'll be 14 and an even bigger handful." Margret schooled. "Then daddy will have his hands full."

"Daddy?" Aisha said confused.

"I'm sure, he'll be fine. He looks strong. But he won't have any more girls if he knows what's good for him and his wallet." said Clint

"I hear you, old man." Riven chuckled, playing along. He liked this Clint guy. "Aisha's nothing, but trouble."

"I can tell. I'd tell you to run, but you're stuck with her now." Clint winked at Aisha.

"Oh, shut up, Clint! I can't take you anywhere." Margret scolded her husband.

"See what I mean. Stuck." Clint whispered loudly. Riven burst out into laughter while Aisha looked horrified.

"I think we gave the wrong impression. Riven and I aren't together; we aren't married." Aisha tried to explain.

Margret and Clint look at each other in disbelief. "You young folks certainly do things differently. You should make an honest woman out of her, young man."

"Yes sir." Riven saluted. Clint nodded and left with his wife.

"Wait… We aren't… Riven!" Aisha pushed him away from her.

Riven could only laugh. "What? You should have played along." Aisha covered her face. Riven laughed harder. "You should see your face!" He grabbed her wrists. "Come on let's finish up so you can put Piff to bed.

Riven and Aisha took more pictures before heading to the gift shop. He bought a stuffed panda and gave it to Aisha to later give to Piff. He carried it nonchalantly as they approached Aisha's doorstep. Aisha stuck her keys inside before turning to Riven. "I had fun." She admitted.

"I knew you would." He handed the panda to her. "We should do this again. The three of us, you know."

Aisha nodded. "Sure."

"Yeah, I don't think she's been to one of these Earth carnivals yet. That should be fun."

Aisha smirked. "You coddle her too much."

"I have to. She's my favorite girl." Aisha felt her face getting hot when he said this. She knew he was talking about Piff; but, he was looking in her eyes when he said it.

Riven continued to look at her. He barely noticed himself getting closer. Aisha's heart began to race. This couldn't be happening? Was this real? Was he really trying to kiss her? She closed her eyes and felt her body getting hot. He was only inches away from her face when Aisha opened the door and dashed inside. With a quick goodbye, she shut it. Riven stared at the door dumbfounded and rejected. He did not expect that. Oh well, at least he tried.

Riven placed his hands in his pockets and headed home. Overall, he had a great day and couldn't complain. Well, he did want to kiss her; but, that was a silly impulse he'd forget about soon, hopefully. Riven's phone vibrated. He picked it up and read the text message.

Piff's never been to a planetarium. –Aisha

Nope, he couldn't forget about it now.

(A/N) I hope you enjoyed. I started watching more Winx, so with time I'll be a better Winx writer. I'm only telling you this because I'm going to write another one. Riven/Aisha, of course. It's going to be called Melody and the rating is M. Plot: Aisha is torn better hating Riven and loving his beautiful voice. I'm also trying to branch out from Inuyasha so give me a Winx crack pairing and I'll give it a shot. I hope you enjoyed. Thanks, for reading and reviewing.
