Kissing in the Rain

I was walking on the sidewalks of magix. I was raining and I had no umbrella. Some people offered me their umbrella but I turn them down, knowing this was the only way to punish me for being such a coward. Coward for not getting back at Riven.

Just a few minutes ago, Riven and I broke up. Again. We were just having a conversation when he suddenly asked about my past boyfriends. I told them that they were very different from him but he was better for me but when he asked if I still liked them I didn't answer because, I'm sure he already knew the answer, so I just smiled. Then there he was shouting at me like there was no tomorrow. I was used to that, not until he called it off. That's when I held my tears back and there. I ran away.

Seems like only our relationship among the others never last. At the beginning I thought that maybe my relationship with Riven would last longer than Flora and Helia's. I thought wrong. Flora is having the better relationship now. Come to think of it, I never had a healthy relationship. I was halfway back to Alfea when my phone rang. 'if this is Riven I'm totally rejecting it.' I Thought to myself but when I checked it out, it was Jared calling. "Uh. Hey. Jared."

"Hi Musa. I was just wondering if you'd want to eat chinese with me?" Then it hit me. This was one way I could forget Riven. We are going our own way now right? Meaning, he has nothing to do with me. Besides, Jared is a nice guy and this is just for some friendly dinner. Right? I smiled.

"Sure Jared. Where then?"

"The Paper Lantern. On sparkle street. See you there?"

"See you there." I put my phone back in my bag not noticing that the rain stopped. So I dried myself off with my powers and head for Oak street.

Riven POV

I watched from a corner as Musa ran off to Oak street. She didn't know that I was listening to her this whole time. I was about to apologize when I heard her say Jared. That name pisses me off all the time but hearing Musa talking to him, made my chest tighten. I know I was wrong for raising my temper on Musa without hearing her out but I wouldn't let her go off with another guy. 'I love Musa and there's nothing stopping me from making her fall for other guys.'
