Musa's POV
I woke up and let out a muffled groan as I tried to sit up.
"Huh?" I sighed, looking down to my waist to see muscular arms around me. I looked up and a smile crept on my face when I glanced up at him.
Riven looked so cute when he's sleeping!
I realised we fell asleep last night while watching that movie and we were on the couch. I slowly and carefully pulled his arms off of me, even though I don't want to, and then stood up.
He still didn't wake up.
I looked at the mirror and quickly tied my long hair into a messy bun before straightening out my shorts and tank top that were slightly ruffled due to me sleeping.
I decided to make breakfast as everyone else hasn't woken up yet. Just as I was about to get the ingredients for pancakes, a little girl with magenta hair walked in.
"Hey Mel, you're awake" I said, not really looking at her face.
"I'm not Melody, It's Ruby" the sweet little voice said, making me look at Ruby with an apologetic look.
"Oh! Sorry, it's just you look like Mel a little..." I giggled a bit. Melody hasn't woken up yet but Riven's 5 year old sister has.
I prepared the ingredients as she stared at me and took a seat, "What are you doing?"
"Making breakfast.. Pancakes that is" I smiled.
"I love pancakes! Can I help?" She adorably asked, giving me a grin that looked so much like Riven's.
"Sure sweetie" I said. As she later on helped me with cooking, I bonded with her a little more. She reminded me so much of Riven... And to be honest, Melody does too.
...
"I wonder what smells so good.." Riven yawned as he entered the kitchen with Melody walking beside him.
"That my friend, is my famous delicious pancakes!" I giggled, staring at his messy dark hair, which looked quite sexy to me...
Whoops! Did I just think that?
Okay, I love his messed up morning hair. I'll admit that, not to him though.
"And I helped!" Ruby grinned, smiling up at her older brother, "Riven!"
"Hey.. Umm, what's your name again? It.. It starts with an R right?" Riven said, scratching his head like an idiot.
I giggled at him and shook my head, "You forgot your own sister's NAME!"
"What? I'm sorry! I just found out that I had a sister YESTERDAY!" Riven complained, and chuckled at Ruby who pouted. He picked her up and hugged her.
"Let me down! I wanna play with Mel!" Ruby whined.
"Okay, okay! Don't need to be such a brat," Riven scoffed, earning a slap on the head from me.
"Ouch! MUSA!" He complained, letting Ruby down. I rolled my eyes.
"So you two friends now?" Riven asked.
"Yup!" Melody and Ruby said.
"But I am basically her auntie right?" Ruby asked. Riven nodded as the kids skipped away into the living room.
"The pancakes smell so good, that you'd be a great wife one day!" Riven smiled stupidly at me and took some strawberries from the bowl.
"Hey! Those are for the pancakes!" I grumbled, to which he shrugged to.
"We're seeing Flora in Linphea today" I said, "The other's will be there too"
...
Riven, Melody, Ruby and I finally arrived at Linphea. I was wearing a floral blue, pink and white crop top and a pair of white jeans, with white strappy heels and my hair in a high ponytail.
Ruby was dressed in a pink summer dress and Melody in a red dress, with Riven wearing a simple black shirt and jeans.
"Guys! Welcome to my house!" Flora opened the door and greeted us.
I wasn't surprised when I saw that her belly was big and she would probably be due in a few days.
"Come in," Flora smiled, looking at Ruby with confusion but grinned at her anyways.
Oh yeah, I forgot that the Winx and Specialists don't know about Ruby.
We walked into the gigantic living room, where everybody was sat on a few of the big sofas. We all sat down as everybody greeted us.
"Hey Muse! Riv! And Melody!" Stella smiled dramatically. I always knew she liked Melody since she was a girl, and Stella wanted a baby girl too.
When everyone's gaze flickered to Ruby, they looked at me and Riven in confusion.
"You guys had another KID?! WHEN?! WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL US!" Brandon suddenly shouted, as everyone nodded.
"And you got back together?" Bloom said.
"WHAT? NO! She's not our kid!" Riven snapped as I let out a giggle, "She's my sister"
"You have a sister?" Sky said in confusion.
"Well, DUH! Didn't I just answer that?!" Riven growled, rolling his eyes at Sky's stupidity.
"I recently found out that I'm the king of Crescendo and that I have a little sister," Riven explained in a matter of factly.
Everyone looked at him like he was crazy.
"Did you crash your head on the way to Linphea or something?" Nabu asked, giving him a serious face.
I couldn't help it. That cracked me up a smile.
The others obviously looked like they didn't believe him, so I decided to step up and make everything clear and more believable.
"Guys, It's true. I was there when we heard about Riven's past from his aunt yesterday.. B-but she passed away shortly after" I sighed in sadness, looking towards Riven sympathetically.
He scowled. I knew he wasn't feeling well about any of it. After all, he did just find out that his parents were killed due to protecting him and his sister, after believing they abandoned him when he was a baby, when they didn't.
I couldn't imagine what he's going through right now. But at least he had Ruby, Melody, our friends, and... And .. Me.
"We're so sorry Riven," Flora whispered, frowning. The others mumbled their 'sorry' too but Riven kept a bold and emotionless expression.
I leaned towards him and gave him a hug, hoping to make him realise that I do care about him more than he thinks. I also knew he didn't like sad atmospheres and wanted this particular topic to be gone this instant.
"What's your name?" Asked an excited Stella, who was staring at Ruby with awe. Oh boy, here it comes...
"R-Ruby," Ruby replied nervously and unsurely, but after taking a glance at the grinning Stella, a smile crept on her face, "Y-you?"
"Princess Stella of Solaria!" Stell replied, "And I'm a fashion designer!"
Ruby's eyes lit up, "Really? I really wanna be a fashion designer! That's my dream for when I grow up! I love clothes! And SHOPPING! And pink, and makeup, and-"
"Fashion designer? Makeup? SHOPPING?" Stella squealed in excitement.
"OMG!" Ruby and Stella screeched in unison, their voices so high pitched that everyone, including me, had to cover our ears. Seriously, with my sonar ears, it made it a HUNDRED times WORSE!
"Omg! We're so gonna get along!" Stella smiled and pulled Ruby in a tight hug, "It's like having a daughter that's so much like me that I don't have! Omg RIVEN! Can I please adopt her?!"
"CERTAINLY NOT! She's my sister and If she stays with you, it will be like having a double Stella! And believe me, that's my number one NIGHTMARE!" Riven growled, as Stella and Ruby rolled their eyes.
"Is Ruby a fairy?" Tecna suddenly asked, which made everyone gasp.
"I.. I don't know.. Are you, Rubes?" Riven questioned, turning to his sister.
"Yes brother," she grinned, "But I'm not even sure what my powers are.."
"I suppose I could check like I did with the other kids," Tecna said, "You'll have to show me what you can do, Ruby"
Ruby simply nodded. "But for now, how about you guys introduce yourselves to Ruby and be nice to her, while I get some drinks" Flora said, looking at the other kids.
"Sure!" The kids said in unison, as they smiled at her.
"Flo, I'll handle the drinks," I told Flora, knowing she would need rest as the baby is heavy in her belly. Been there, done that.
Flora looked at me gratefully and sighed, sitting down as I got up and went to the kitchen. Okay so how many people are there in total... 17? No, 19? 21! Right, there's twenty one of us all together.
21. That's a lot.
As I started to get the cups out the cupboard, I felt a warm big hand over my hand, creating a sudden spark which I flinched at.
"S-sorry," I heard Riven mumble sheepishly, realising that he startled me.
"W-what are you doing here?" I asked, narrowing my eyes at him. We were the only ones in the kitchen.
"Oh, I just thought you'd need help," he replied, shrugging.
"I'm capable of making and filling up 21 cups of drinks, thank you very much!" I snapped, though inside felt a little guilty for snapping at him.
Riven's face suddenly washed over with sadness, as he leaned on the counter and sighed deeply, which made me even more guilty,
"I... It's just that I wanted to get away from there. With the sad atmosphere.. And with all those sympathetic looks the others were giving me... It's too much," He whispered softly, his voice nearly breaking.
I frowned, looking down. I wish I could do something to make everything better... But that probably isn't possible.
I reached up and placed my hand on his cheek, rubbing my thumb gently on his skin in a comforting way. I felt my eyes prick with tears, "Riven, I... I,"
Riven leaned forward, closer to my hand and sighed in a relaxing way, "You know, sometimes you are the one who makes me feel better,"
A small genuine smile crept on my face as I stared at him, but trying not to give him any more sympathetic looks. I learned that he hated it.
"Anyways, can I still help you with the drinks?" He suddenly asked, perking up a little.
"But Riv.. About the-"
"I'd rather not talk about it," he grumbled, gently pushing my hand away from his face and turning around so that his back was faced to me.
I frowned and sighed, deciding that the topic about his past should be forgotten... For now.
"Alright," I simply said, opening the cupboards to grab the cups but only to see the cups already placed onto the table.
Wow, Riven must've done it and he was really quick.
"What drinks did they want again?" I said.
"Flora told me to just prepare 7 glasses of orange squash and another 7 of black currant" he replied, to which I nodded. I prepared the orange as he did the black currant.
"I'll get something quickly," I mumbled, taking a glance at Riven who was pouring the drinks in the cup, and then left to get the thing.
Riven POV
"I'll get something quickly," I heard Musa mumble before she turned away and walked out.
As I poured more drinks into the tall cups, I suddenly jumped when I heard a loud, I mean VERY loud roar coming from behind me, making me spill the bottle of drink all over the floor.
Just then, Musa came in without noticing it suddenly slipped on it as she screamed.
I at least made an attempt to catch her, but I was too late and she fell on the slippery wet ground, and her foot crashing on my legs causing me to lose balance and fall too.
I fell beside her, our clothes a little wet and sticky. We then glanced up when we heard the irritating loud giggled and snickers coming from a little red haired boy from the room.
"OH MY! Haha ! Did you- did you even see your FACES? And when you.. You FELL!" Blake, Bloom and Sky's 6 year old son laughed, clutching his stomach as tears of laughter rolled out.
Ugh, I knew it was him. The most mischievous, naughty boy out of all the kids- and out of all of the people I have met in my life.
Seriously, how can Sky live with a son like that?
Musa scoffs and turned away, glaring. Blake quickly grabbed a packet of crisps and walked out of the room, still laughing like an-
Nah, I can't call him that. He's just a kid. A very, very naughty one might I add.
"I hate that kid," I muttered, furrowing my eyebrows.
"Well then, that's having kids, for you" Musa shook her head, a beautiful yet irritating giggle escaping her mouth.
"Yeah, yeah" I grumbled, crossing my arms. I hastily stood up and helped her up, "Well I won't be having any, any time sooner"
I looked at Musa who had a little bit of a hurt expression, but then instantly placed a smile on her face when she noticed me narrowing my eyes at her.
...
Later on, it was already evening and the sky was getting dark. Tecna was still trying to figure out Ruby's powers as the other girls decided to cook a meal for all of us later on.
When we finally found out about my sister's powers, we were quite shocked. Her powers were somewhat based on gems. Ruby gems I think.
Her main power abilities are ruby shield walls, which means she can create a wall made of ruby gem, that can stand any attack, unless they are really bad attacks. She can also heal anybody just by touching them, but most of all, she has the invisibility power.
Which means she can turn invisible when she wants to. So I guess my sis has a good variety of abilities. I'm proud of her, she's the fairy of Gems, who also has amazing abilities. But she is still working on her powers.
But since me and her are from the Crescendo Planet, a musical planet, she does have sonar ears. I wish i had that good sense of hearing, but I'm a Specialist, not a fairy.
"Let's cook then, girls!" Bloom grinned, as the other Winx girls stood up. I fixed my gaze on Musa though.
They then walked out the living room except for Tecna, who stayed behind.
"Riven, I also found out that Ruby inherited her healing powers from your mother. And.. You kind of have it too. But yours is slightly different, your body can heal itself within a few minutes or days if you get injured, but you can't heal anyone else," Tecna explained.
"But I got cut last year and I didn't get healed quickly," I said, my eyebrow raising.
"You will only get your healing abilities when you concentrate on it and when your ready for it," She simply said with a small smile before walking out.
The guys looked at me like I was amazing.
"Whoa, dude! That's AWESOME!" Nabu grinned.
"It is!" Helia agreed.
"I never knew I had that ability" I wondered, staring at the guys.
"Who cares though? You have powers that are sick! I guess you'll have to 'concentrate' and be ready for your powers when you'll need it," Brandon said.
"It's pretty good, I guess," I said as I let all of the words sink in. Wow, I never knew I had a bit of my.. Mother's powers.
"Rivie! Blake is SO annoying!" I heard Ruby whine as she came back in the room.
"I agree! I don't like Blake!" Aqua huffed as the other girls nodded. I chuckled as Sky gave Blake a look.
"You're not naughty again, are you?" Sky raised his eyebrow at his son, who in return, shook his head.
"Liar," Sky mumbled, making us laugh at Blake.
Blake just rolled his eyes and then high-fived Alex.
I decided to get some fresh air so I stood up and left the room. As I crept near the outside door, I suddenly heard talking so I turned to a corner and spotted Musa in the other living room, by herself, and on the... Phone.
Flora and Helia lived in this huge mansion, that's why theres more than one living room.
I got curious all of a sudden so I hid and listened in on the conversation. Musa's gonna kill me for this...
That is if she ever finds out.
"T-this saturday? I .. Uhh.. S-s-sure I guess," Musa said nervously, and I could see her hands shaking slightly.
I couldn't hear the other person she was on the phone with, unfortunately.
"Yes Nathan, really. But where do you want to meet up?"
My eyes widened and my breath got caught in my throat... Nathan? That's a boy's name. This can't be good.
"The one near Alfea? Okay then, sounds great!"
That's when it hit me. Oh crap. Nathan. It's that guy Mel told me about who works in Alfea with Musa, and was gonna go on a date with Musa but cancelled since she had to come with me to meet my aunt.
I clenched my fists and my breathing became ragged when I could imagine where this was going.
No, oh no. No. I can't lose her again!
And just when Musa and I are starting to become good friends again!
She's gonna have that date with Nathan. At least that's what I came into conclusion of.
And do you know how I felt? Three words: So. Fucking. Jealous.
I shouldn't really, but I couldn't consume these emotions any longer. Musa can't be with any other guy but me.
It caught me off guard when her melodious giggle filled my ears, and it made me even furious that I WASN'T the one who made her do that.
I made the biggest mistake right there.
I growled. Literally growled.
I couldn't hold in that feeling of anger, I just had to.
And to add to my problems, Musa turnrd around.
Fuck them sonar ears.
"B-bye Nath, I'll see you then," she then hung up the phone, and stared directly at me.
I instantly hid back, hoping she didn't see me. I knew she did.
I heard her quiet footsteps approaching. My heart only beat faster..
"Riven, what the hell?!" Her angry voice snapped, making me flinch.
Is it bad to say that it turned me on? Hah, it always has.
"Hey..." I said, getting up from the floor and grinning stupidly at her. I tried my best to hide the anger that overcame me.
"What were you doing? Eaves-dropping?" She raised an eyebrow and stood in front of me, her hands in front of her chest. She gave me a glare, which was supposed to be very intimidating to me but...
She looked hot as hell when she was angry.
"Uhh..." I scratched my head, "No?"
Her expression then changed to amusement which made me smirk at her.
All of a sudden, her expression turned back to icy and angry. What? Wasn't she just amused a second ago?
I've never understood women.
"Why the fuck did you-"
"My water broke!"
...
Hey guys! I'm still stuck about Flora's baby boy's name. So I decided on a top 3: Chace, Liam, and Aiden.
