Hello. So I hope that the story is interesting so far. There is more Helia and Flora interaction in this chapter

I do not own the Winx Club

CHAPTER 10

I felt a shiver as I turned around. I knew this voice.

"Hi Helia" I responded with a grin.

"I didn't scare you did I Flora? I thought I saw you shiver." He said with fake concern and a sly smile.

"Whatever!" I laughed. He laughed as well.

"Oh my god is that Helia?! How are you?" Stella said as she walked over to us. She gave Helia a big hug. "How's Krystal? I haven't seen either one of you in so long. Did you guys get married? Is she here" Where…"

"Well actually Stella..." Helia blurted out before her next onslaught of questions. "Krystal and I aren't together anymore."

"Oh wow that's too bad. Why?" Stella questioned curiously.

"Well to put it flat, she found someone else that she wanted to be with.

"Oh no I'm sorry Helia." Stella said remorsefully. Helia simply hunched

"In my opinion her and James make a better couple anyway." Helia replied very nonchalantly.

"James? The three of you guys grew up together! How could you be okay about…" Stella fumed.

"Stella really." Helia cut her off with a reassuring look. "It was a long time ago, and besides,… we're kind of at a wedding reception right now. This hardly seems the place." Helia chuckled.

As Stella and Helia had been talking I felt it was best for me just to stay quiet. After all this really didn't have anything to do with me. Looking at Helia he seemed to be able to handle Stella anyway. I guess that they were pretty close.

"Stella, don't be so concerned." Helia began again after he was done chuckling. "Recently I've been thinking anyway that there is definitely a beautiful flower just for me."

My head snapped up at this comment. What did he mean by "a beautiful flower"? Was it just a coincidence on word play? Looking up at Helia he hadn't even made so much as a glance in my direction. Maybe I was making more out of his comment than there was to make.

Finally realizing my presence Stella began speaking again. "Speaking of which. When did you two meet? It couldn't have been highschool seeing as Krystal was super jealous of Flora here."

Wait… What?

Looking up at Helia, he was clearly embarrassed and angry all at the same time. Typical Stella

"Stella, that doesn't make any sense. What are you talking about Krystal barely knew me." I answered for Helia hardly believing the level of ridiculousness that was escaping from her mouth.

"Well we'll just say she had her reasons" Stella responded glancing at Helia. Looking up towards Helia, he really looked like he wanted to strangle Stella. Why was he looking at her like that? Noticing my confusion and me waiting for some type of reasonable explanation Helia glared his eyes at Stella before looking at me.

"It's not a big deal Flora. Krystal was just a bit jealous, because of how much everyone talked about you and the things they said, not to mention the fact that you were a member of the infamous Winx Club." Helia stated slightly smiling

"So are Bloom and the rest of the girls. What does that have to do with anything?" I asked Helia. He was clearly leaving something out.

"Hello I asked a question?!" Stella intervened. We both looked at Stella and then back at each other.

"What were you saying?" I said getting back to Helia.

"Well…" He began scratching his head. "It probably also had something to do with you being single and Stella telling me that she had the perfect girl for me when we first met. At the time Krystal and I weren't dating yet, but hearing Stella go on and on… Well I think that you get the picture."

Helia glared over at Stella.

"Oh now you guys can see me?!" Stella pouted folding her arms. "And I stand behind what I said. I'm never wrong about these things you know! Aren't you guys together now?" She defended crossing her arms.

"No we are not." I answered a little quicker than I wanted. "Helia and I just have a class together Stella. That's all.

Looking back at Helia It almost looked as though there was a hint of hurt in his eyes. I decided to bypass it and continue.

"Well now that you've explained I guess that I can understand that. Stella does tend to exaggerate. I don't think that she had a reason to be jealous though. I was the only single one in the Winx Club for a reason. I couldn't keep a boyfriend and the only guy I ever really liked was this guy I met at a dance freshmen year and I didn't even see his face."

"I do not exaggerate, and how did you meet someone at a dance without ever seeing their face, and more importantly why didn't I know about this?" Stella demanded.

"It was a masquerade ball our freshman year and I had to leave before the unveiling. We were supposed to meet the next night at the fountain but he never showed up."

TING! TING! TING!
