The Collector ~ a winx club fanfic

Chapter 16

After Helia ran away from her, Musa made her way over to the boys' dorm, where Roy, Riven, and Brandon were waiting. Should she have waited for Flora to tell him? Would that have made things easier on him? no, no matter who he heard it from it still would have been hard to hear. Shit! Why couldn't Flora have woken up first? When she reached the door she paused wondering if she should knock but that felt silly so she just let herself in. Closing the door behind her she leaned against it, closed her eyes, and released a heavy sigh.

"So... how did he take it?" Roy asked from where he was sitting on a couch in their common area across from Riven.

"Just as well as anyone would i think." Musa replied from her place by the door. "He ran off after i told him... i dont know where to though."

"To Flora i bet." said Brandon as he emerged from his and Sky's room, three sodas in his hands. "Sorry Musa, did you want one?"

"No thanks Brandon, I'm sorry guys but i'm really tired, today has been...well.. eventful, and i think i should lay down before i pass out."

Roy was about to protest but Riven cut him off with a glare and got up from his chair. "I agree. you only just got out of the hospital you should get all the rest that you can." he made his way over to Musa, wrapped one arm around her shoulders, and led her to the door to his and Roy's room. "You can lay down in our room. Sky and everyone are gonna be back here soon and it'll be too noisy for you out here. plus it's too cold out here for you."

Roy rolled his eyes at Riven's overprotective antics and Brandon laughed a "move your meat lose your seat" as he stole Riven's chair. Musa found it endearing though and gave a small exhausted smile, leaning into his chest as he opened the door and walked her through. Releasing his hold on her he closed the door behind them and turned on the light. He and Musa both let out a small groan; Musa from the sudden bright light, and Riven because he just remembered how gross his room was at the moment. He blushed and started picking up dirty clothes and throwing them in the closet, apologizing for the mess.

"Thats fine Riven, i dont mind." Musa yawned "My room is definitely worse."

"I doubt that." He muttered.

"no trust me, i have clothes and sheet music thrown all over the place. It drives Tecna crazy."

Musa pushed the clothes and weights Riven had laying across his bed off in one fluid motion and said. "look and now were twins." before she fell face first into his pillow.

"mmmm... wake me up never." she crooned as she curled up into a ball, clutching the edge of the pillow.

He watched her laying in his bed for a few moments before he headed to the door to rejoin Brandon and Roy in the common area. He turned out the light but he paused with his hand on the door handle. Looking over his shoulder he intended to have one last glace at a sleeping Musa but was stopped when he heard Musa whisper "Riven?"

locking the door he turned back towards Musa. "Yeah Musa?"

She rolled over on the bed until she was laying on her back but facing Riven at the door. Riven's eyes had adjusted to the dark and he could see Musa almost perfectly, every curve and every feature outlined perfectly in the darkness. Her eyes bore into his, her face soft a gentle but her dark eyes shinning with strength and confidence. Neither of them moved a muscle, their arousal growing with every second they spent in silent darkness. it was maddening and Riven practically lost it when Musa whispered breathily "Come here."

Riven hastily made his way to the bed, pausing only momentarily at its edge to slide off his shoes and glance down at his Muse. She was so beautiful, laid out over his bed... his need grew at the sight of her and he crawled slowly over her possessively. Never breaking eye contact, he dragged his body up hers, and she arched her back in response, placing one hand on his chest, while the other stayed draped over her middle. Riven's face was only inches from hers but neither of them closed the distance. This intensity was an extremely erotic form of foreplay. Riven held out only a little bit longer before he felt a longing in his groin, causing him to moan softly and crush his lips into hers. It was a feverish kiss that had them both gasping for breath in seconds. Their bodies we moving and grinding together in a frenzy, both of them clearly asking for more.
