Step 4: Trick him into believing that "Please" is just another curse word.

Musa will admit she has a bit of temper. She didn't think it was so bad that she had to go to anger management classes. But she digresses.

But she couldn't handle knowing that a certain specialist keeps throwing her away like some rag doll. He just was so undecided that it made her a little tick off, one second he'll be kind loving everything she knew he had underneath that bad boy exterior. Then the next he'll be throwing a fit and acting like he owns the place. It was confusing, and she didn't know if she could keep up anymore.

Especially when all your friends have boyfriends right now, you couldn't help but feel lonely. Of course she had Layla, who said "I don't need a man to tie me down!" It wasn't an enough to stop the feeling.

She sighed as she lay on Layla's bed, she was supposed to be watching Layla practice her dance moves for show at Red Fountain, and she should be practicing too since she was going to sing at the show, and her Dad was coming too. But she couldn't get Riven out of her mind, she hated knowing he had that affect over her. She tried so hard to forget about him, but he's been acting strange lately, she just couldn't figure it out.

Layla was almost finishing off her twirl, when she realized Musa wasn't paying attention. She was about to say a snotty comment, when she noticed that glum look on her best friend's face. "What's wrong Musa?"

Musa lifted her head facing Layla's concern expression, Musa tried to form a fake smile, "Nothing wrong."

"Really? Cause when you usually see me dance you always beep-box to it."

"I'm fine." Musa knew Layla wasn't buying it so she let out another sigh falling back onto the bed. She felt the bed shift a little knowing Layla would come over. "Alright," She said, "What's on your mind girl?"

"It's-it's nothing."

Layla smirked sometimes Musa was just too melodramatic just like that red head specialist that got on her nerves. No wonder everyone keeps saying they would make a good couple. "Are you thinking about Riven." Layla said.

Musa gasped as Layla guessed right, it really wasn't a question or even a guess. Even Stella would be able to figure out this twisted logic that was the form of their relationship. But if this was Stella she would just say, forget about him and run off with some prince. Then again this is Layla, who always spoke her mind.

Musa sat up nodding her head sadly. Layla just widen her smirk as she look at her, "Why do you even bother?"

That was all to trigger Musa gasping dramatically back onto the bed. "I don't know! There's-there's something about him, that just draws me to him!"

"Seems like you, got a thing for bad boys."

"You know," she thought, "Maybe I do. I do like a bad boy."

"I know I saw you checking out that guy from the Vampire Dairy's."

"Bamon! I so was not checking him out!"

"And you always tried to cover it up!" Layla rolled her eyes,

"No I don't!" Musa snorted,

"Yes you do."

"No I don't!"

"Yes you do!"

"No I don't!"

"Yes you do!"

Musa grab a pillow slamming Layla hard against the head knocking her off the bed. Layla gasped back up staring at Musa with a deadly gaze, while Musa held a cocky smirk. "Oh you want to go Melody!" Layla threaten,

"Bring it on Tides!"

After a long pillow fight scene occur, the two were finally tired lying back onto the now messed up bed beside each other. "Yeah I like Bamon." Musa finally muttered, Layla was lying upside across from Musa whispering back, "I knew you did."

Musa nodded, "And yeah I like Riven."

Layla didn't look shock or disgusted instead she nodded understandingly "Yeah I knew that too."

"I just don't know if he really likes me back."

"He does."

"How can you be so sure?"

Layla rolled her eyes, "I see the way he looks at you. Besides you're probably the only girl who he hasn't scrolled at when you walk in the room."

Musa laughed, "I always liked his eyes."

"Yeah there some pretty hot violet eyes."

Musa sat up giving her friend a questionable look, Layla just look back and laughed. "Doesn't mean I, want to date him. Ew! Have you seen his hair?"

"I actually like his hair quite frankly."

"Says the girl in the pigtails."

"Shut up!" Musa threaten but she couldn't help but laugh a little at the comment. Layla was a good friend, and she was right. Musa was tired of this game they kept playing. She was going to march straight up to Riven and tell him that he either's makes his move or she's gone!

"You know Layla," Musa spoke, "I got an idea."

Brandon was complaining none stop if he didn't get something to eat he was just going to die of hunger. Riven was waiting for Brandon to go ahead and do it, while Sky knew his best friend better than anyone, knowing that Brandon wouldn't shut up if he didn't. While Helia and Timmy, just rolled their eyes deciding to ignore their friends.

They were at some café in Magix trying to come up with another plan. "I say!" Brandon spat as he tried talking while eating his sandwich. "That we sneak into Musa's room and serenade her with a song!"

"Oh you are so not making me sing." Riven growled,

"What? Musa likes music I bet she think it's romantic!"

"Yeah and she'll probably think of buying a restraining order too."

Brandon looked glum but didn't seem discouraged, "Okay how bout we throw rocks at her window! And then when she comes out Riven reads her lines from…um…what was that play Bloom mention from earth…um Roman & Jewelry?"

"You mean from Shakespeare?"

"Who Shakespeare?"

"Oh I try so hard to teach him." Helia sighed at his failed attempt to try to teach Brandon about art.

"Whatever!" Brandon spat, "Um…how bout writing a poem!"

"No,"

"A walk on the beach."

"No,"

"Dancing at a club."

"Oh gods no."

"Giving her a boat ride while fireworks light up in the sky while you sing to her a romantic ballad while we throw roses at the boat!"

They all just sat back and stared.

Still Brandon didn't look discouraged. "What! I'm the only one coming up with idea's here!"

Timmy sighed almost ready to give up, when his phone ranged, "Hello?"

"Hi Timmy!" Musa said,

Timmy was taken back a little by her sudden voice, "Oh h-hi!"

"Look Timmy I kind of need your help with this project and Tecna's already helping Stella. And I was wondering in case you're not busy you could help me?"

Timmy stared at his friends, watching as Sky and Helia were trying to pull away from an annoyed Riven who was about to attack Brandon, who kept spatting food in his face.

"Yeah I'm not busy."

"Cool! I'll meet you at your dorm."

"Actually", Timmy muttered, "Why don't you come meet me at this café here in Magix."

He heard her take pause but then she finally answered, "Okay I'll see you then."

Timmy let out a wide smile at that, "I'll see you too."

His friends paused for a second staring at him. "Who was that?" Riven asked,

Timmy tried not to snicker, "Oh no one but you should probably want to wipe that stuff off your face."

"DAMN IT BRANDON!"

Musa's plan was simple, she was going to talk to Timmy and ask him different things about Riven that could work to her advantage. She lied to him on the phone, just in case of the guys (especially Riven) over hearing their conversation and blurts it out. The plan was so easy and simple, that nothing could go wrong.

Until she saw Timmy at the café with all the guys…including Riven.

She hid behind a bush, praying none of them saw her. She watched them for the longest time. She saw how intently Timmy talked to them, while Riven was having a hard time paying attention as he was cringing towards Brandon while Brandon tried hard not to turn over to Riven's direction. She couldn't help laughing at how riduolious they look especially when Helia tried to say something to Riven, while Sky was retraining him, she laughed harder as Timmy looked so ashamed.

She decided that was a great opportunity to just stroll right past Timmy without having any glances from Riven.

Growing confident she straightened her back, strutting her way towards the boys.

Riven's attention was all over Brandon till Musa walk past his view. Taking all his focus on her. The way she walked was hypnotizing, her clothes weren't nothing fancy just big jeans and a nice top was all she had on. But boy did she make it work, especially with her looks, her high cheekbones with her smooth milky skin balanced out with her dark blue eyes and her midnight jaded hair that was placed into pigtails, just how he liked them.

The entire boy's attention grew on her as she walked past them towards Timmy. Though Timmy didn't look nervous, instead he held a sly smile once he saw Musa arrive.

"Hi Timmy…hi guys." Musa greeted him,

Timmy still held his smile, "Hey Musa." The others didn't know what to say once Musa came into view. Thankfully Timmy knew what he was doing. "So you need my help?" He asked,

Musa nodded trying not to look awkward. "Alright," Timmy said, "Which project?"

Thankfully for Musa she thought of this. "Here come with me and I'll show you."

Timmy noticed a small spark of jealousy rise from Riven's eye as soon as Musa spoke those words. Timmy's smile widens, "Oh I think I know which one you're talking about."

That caught her off guard, "You do?"

"Yeah but I'm going to need some help." He answered directing his attention towards his friends. "Here Brandon, Helia, Sky come with me I'm going to need your help to get it."

Riven's eyes flared as he figured out Timmy's plan. "I'll help too Timmy!" He shouted,

"That's okay," Timmy smiled, "Already got an enough help," he turned his head towards Musa "Why don't you wait here while we go get it."

Musa's eyes flared as Riven's did, while Timmy ignored it making sure the others followed him leaving the two 'love birds' alone.

Total silence settled upon them as the others left. Neither knew what to say, or how to say it. They pretended that they weren't looking at each other while they kept stealing glances from the corner of their eye. Riven noticed how her gaze was far away from his, as she kept standing, she looked tired and bored switching to one feet to the other. He knew she hated silence, so he decided to man up. He let out a fake cough trying to sound professional while deep down he was a nervous wreck. "Why don't you sit down?" He gestured, cheering silently glad his voice didn't crack.

She smiled awkwardly, "Thank you." She seated herself down, while Riven tried to rack his brain for something else to say. Luckily Musa spoke for him, "I really don't know what to say."

He sighed, "Yeah me either."

"I think you and I both know why they left us alone together."

"Yep"

"They're probably never coming back."

"Yeah, some great friends they are." Riven smirked, thinking of ways he could get back at them. Musa only sighed, "You know they are. It's just they're way of helping is different."

Riven snorted, "Please they're way of helping isn't really helping at all."

Musa's eyes darken as she studied Riven's comment surprisingly she didn't take it as an insult instead more of a challenge a challenge that she like to unsolve. "How would you know, have you ever helped someone?"

Musa face was serious while her tone sounded teasing, Riven study her expression as her eyes had this new glint in them. It highlighted her features making her look more beautiful, it was an expression Riven had never seen before. He was glad that he could arise, it. "Haven't you seen me helping the hoboes out. I give them free drinks. That's more than a saint."

Musa laughed which sounded lovely to Riven's ears. "Exactly what we need more drunk hoboes."

Riven laughed, a real laugh that felt nice to both of their ears. "It's more than what you have going on pixie. Saving people wearing only small pieces of cloth."

"Fairy actually. And if my clothes bother you so much than stop staring."

"Can't, I like looking at you."

"You like looking at me?" Musa giggled, she liked having his attention on her, it felt nice actually having a real conversation with him. Without having any of their friends bothering them or some freaks trying to take over the world. She liked talking to him. It was…fun!

"Yeah I like looking at you." Riven said honestly, he had to admit he was having fun. Musa does something to him to make him act this way. He couldn't figure out why, but there were something about her.

Their laughter grew silent as there gazes fell on one another, breaking it silently Riven spoke first, "You wonna…go somewhere else?"

Musa smile widen, "Yes I would like that." She said earnestly,

Riven's smile was breath taking for a couple of minutes till he fake grunted speaking hardly, "But it's not a date."

Musa held her smile but spoke teasingly, "Yes defiantly not a date."

Silence filled in for a little till the two broke out in laughter.

From afar in the bushes a couple of specialists couldn't help but over hear the two's conversation. "We failed!" Brandon said dramatically,

"What do you mean we'd failed?" Helia asked,

"They're not dating! That was the plan! It didn't happen so we failed!"

Sky sighed, "This whole point Brandon was to get Musa and Riven to discover that they like each other. And maybe this is their, own way of saying that."

Brandon looked confused ponding that for a while till he gave up. "Why do they have to speak in another language to tell each other they like each other? It just makes it more confusing!"

Timmy ignored Brandon, smiling to himself glad he was able to help two friends. "How about we get some ice cream?"

Brandon's face cheered up, "Okay!"

Helia sighed, "You're treating him like a little kid you know?"

Timmy laughed, "Yeah but it makes him happy."

They all laughed while Brandon shouted, "It's a date! See unlike them I can say we're going on a date!"

I don't think I want to end it here. I might add another chapter, which I promise will be sooner than this once.

So sorry for the late update, I'll try to make the next one sooner.
