Chapter 10: Another shot

MUSA POV

What? I felt someone brush my hand, I think it was a stroke of a finger. My body feels slightly cooled, had my fever gone done? I still had a headache, so maybe I'm recovering. But who touched me, it couldn't be any of the girls. They didn't have a big finger that was warm and gentle to my skin, the girls had small skinny soft fingers.

I slightly opened my eyes, I saw the clock right in front of me. 7pm, already? I slept for 4 hours? Well this is what the girls wanted so no use in complaining, I slowly moved my head to look around. Bloom and Tecna were playing some video games, Stella was fixing her hair and putting on God who knows what on her face, Layla was seated next to Bloom reading some of Stella's magazines, I didn't see Flora so she's probably beside me. I felt a cold towel being placed on my forehead and that sent shivers down my spine, I found Flora I smiled and turned to my side.

"Riven?" I whispered with eyes slightly opened.
"Hey pixie, how you feeling?" Riven was drying his hands.
"Wh-what are you doing here?" I asked. "And where's Flora?"
"Over there." Riven pointed over to the Bloom's bed where Flora was sleeping. "She got tired so I took over"
"Can you go home?" I hid under the covers.
"Musa" Riven sighed "Please let me explain"

I didn't answer, what does he want from me? I was finally moving on but he still keeps coming back, I don't someone who constantly hurts me. I really don't get Riven anymore.

"Muse please." Riven lifted my blanket and peeked in, I saw those violet eyes soften. Full of hurt, I was completely hypnotized by him.
"Ok" I unconsciously sat up. "What do you want?"
"I want you back Muse, I didn't do anything that would betray you." Riven never took his eyes off me, he sounded so sincere but the images of him kissing those girls would flash and I couldn't forgive him.
"I saw you kissing two different girls, how could you not betray me?" I squinted my eyes at him and bit my lower lip, I felt the tears come but I was holding it all in.
"Let me prove it to you then, let me show you my feelings" Riven stood up and offered me a hand.

His feelings? His cold loving heart, he'll show it to me again. What am I suppose to do now? All my feelings for him which I locked up and threw away are quickly coming back, I wanted to be with him more than anything in the world. But Beat... No, maybe I should give Riven a shot. This is just to help me decide whether or not I should stay with Beat or stay in Alfea, and maybe be with the one I really love.

I gripped my hand which was on my chest "Ok" I took his hand.

The girls didn't pay much attention to us, it was like we weren't in the room. Were they mad at me? I was stubborn but I had my reasons, they were kinda legit.

I walked over to Flora "Flo?" I whispered.
"Mhhhh?" Flora stretched and opened her eyes. "How's your fever?"
"I think it's going down, hey I'll just go out." I smiled. "Is that okay?
"Oh, I think you should ask... Them" Flora sat up pointed over to the girls who were standing right infront of me.
"Hey" I waved and smiled.
"Going somewhere?" Stella smiled.
"Yeah, Riven and I will just go out and get some air." I shyly chuckled.
"Riven?" Layla had a huge grin on her face "Go on then"

She pushed me over to Riven and they all went back to their old positions, even Flora was asleep again. I brushed of the weirdness and grabbed my jacket, Riven was already by the door when I felt my back pocket vibrate.

I took my phone out and saw a message. "Hey, I wanna see Muse. Can we meet up? I'm just around the corner." It was Beat.
I replied "Going to the park, need to fix things. I'll just text you soon!" and send.

I placed my phone back to my pocket and ran over to Riven, he looked so happy with that cocky smile of his.

We walked around the dark side walk and I couldn't help but feel a bit nervous, it's just Riven. What am I getting all worked up for?

"Musa" Riven stopped by the gate of the park.
"Hmmm?" I looked at him
"Uhmm.. I'm sorry, but I really don't know what I did to hurt you." Riven and I walked to the bench.
"I told you, I hate cheaters Riven" I sighed.
"I know that, Muse, if I ever wanted to cheat on you don't you think I would've done that a long time ago when all those girls would cling on to me?" Riven gulped.
"Yeah" I smiled, a lot of girls liked Riven but everytime they would even get an inch close to him he would growl and scare them away.
"And if I did cheat on you why would I go through all the trouble in getting you back" Riven looked at me "You're my Muse, I can't lose you. I really love you, you're my world, my everything, you make me a better person, you've literally saved me Musa."

And with those words my heart aches were fading, a smile was placed on my face, my cheeks were burning not because of the fever but because of Riven, he had said enough to win me back. I've fallen for him once again, how could I get my anger get the best of me? Riven would never cheat, he would never abandon me. Maybe someone played a nasty trick on me, I just know Riven is telling the truth.

I leaned over to him and touched his cheeks, Riven smiled and that made me melt. All the pain had vanished, he managed to cure my broken heart. I smiled at him and he wrapped his arms around my waist, I got closer to him and we were just inches apart. I held on to his arms and leaned a bit more, I felt some lumps on his arms. Then I remembered the scars I gave him, these scars that I left on him proves that Riven will endure anything just for me. Everything was falling back into to place, everything was..

"RIVEN!" a high pitched tone squealed.

Riven and I looked and saw a blonde haired girl, it was her! The girl from the mall, she kissed Riven.

"I missed you! I got your text by the way" the blonde flashed a smile at me and showed me her phone, she sat on his lap and shoved me to the ground.
"Who the hell? Get off me!" Riven pushed her away.
"Baby cakes, don't you remember me? I'm Samantha! We had an intense make out session a few days ago" she wickedly grinned.

I wasn't sure if it was the fever but my head was extremely hot, I felt my blood boil with anger. What as I thinking? I almost fell into Riven's trap! He never changed! I get it now, he's using his moves on me. He really is a player, I can't believe I almost kissed him!

I stormed off, Riven was caling my name but I didn't look back. He's just another player who wants to use me, some girl I've become. Been blinded by stupid guys like him, I feel so dumb.

RIVEN POV

"Get away!" I pushed Samantha and ran after Musa, but she was out of my sight. "DAMN IT!"

Samantha was laughing and I quickly glared at her, she had her long curly hair on her face which made her look like a crazy hag. I walked over to her and grabbed her arm, I wanted to hurt this girl so badly.

"Ouch baby, you're hurting me" Samantha laughed.
"WHAT THE HELL DO YOU WANT?" I yelled.
"Just, you Riven" she smiled.
"Never show your face to me ever again" I threw her to the ground.

I walked away, but then I heard her laugh again. Her tone changed, it was lower and more familiar. I looked back and I saw myself, it was like looking at a mirror.

"Hey" it greeted.
"What the-?" I scanned it, it looked excatly like me but didn't entirly get all my feature. It didn't have the scars that Musa left, nor the bruises on my leg, it didn't even have my violet eyes. "What do you want!"
The figure smiled and whispered. "Musa"
