It was 9:30 Blake drove Musa up to the front steps of Alfea and helped her off the bike. "I had a nice time," she said, pulling her helmet off and handing it to Blake.
"Just nice?" Blake said with a small smile. Musa rolled her eyes. "You know, if you ever get tired of that boyfriend of yours, you can always give me a call," he said.
"I'll keep that in mind," Musa said and walked backwards up a step. Blake just smiled, then leaned up and pecked her on the check then walked over to the bike and rode off. Musa just stared after him and touched her check lightly. She smiled and made her way up to the dorm. When she walked through the door, all 5 other girls ran up to her with a tidal wave of questions.
"Did you have fun?"
"Did he kiss you?"
"Are you gonna go out with him again?"
"Did you miss Riven?"
"Quiet!" Musa hollered, holding up her hands. "One at a time!"
Stella pulled Musa into her room and sat her down on the bed. "You had fun, right?"
"Yeah, I did…" Musa said distantly.
"What's the matter?" Flora asked gently.
"I had fun," Musa answered.
"Well, why is that bad?" Stella asked.
"Because I think I like Blake," Musa answered sadly.
"Well that's great!" Stella squealed.
Musa got up and went to the window. "But what do I do about Riven!" she asked desperately.
"Maybe this will help you decide," Layla said handing the cell phone to Musa.
"Huh?" Musa asked. "Riven called. He left you a voice mail." Musa flipped open the phone and listened to the voice mail. She snapped in shut and threw it against the floor.
"You'll break it again if you're not careful," Tecna said gently, picking the phone up.
"I…I need to think…" Musa said and went to her room. She plopped down on her bed and put her headphones in, letting music fill her head. It didn't help so she went out on the balcony to get some fresh air. "Why did I ever say yes to that guy!"
