(flashback)
Musa frantically paced up and down her apartment; no matter how hard she tried her legs wouldn't stop or even be still. Her heart raced as she held that test in her now trembling hand. The very test that will either make her future worth living or just plain hell. There was no telling until Riven got back.
She had recently bought an apartment with him just after her graduation at Alfea. Slowly one by one, the remaining Winx members got married and lived happily ever after with their specialists... All but Musa. Riven hadn't changed much at all, yes they still had the occasional argument but that didn't really mean anything. Besides all Musa wanted from him was him to show her how much he actually really loved her. That never happens. He hadn't even asked her hand in marriage! But surely the birth of their baby will hopefully change that!As the clock turned to 11:00 pm Musa got more and more worried.
"What if he freaks out,What do I do then?"
"Just calm down muse!" Tecna replied on the phone "I know none of us have had children but I know for a fact that Riven will take it well. He loves you to much to leave you-"
"Yes but what if he does anyway! I can't raise a child on my own." Musa cut tecna off with her constant excuses to being calm.
"Musa listen to me, it's fine if he's freaked out. I've read that men always don't expect it to happen when it does. You will be fine. Your having a baby! how exciting" tecna went on about how life would be amazing when raising a child and how she would experience motherhood.
"Tec... I get it. It's going to be good and all that but-"
"Sorry Musa, what were you saying?" Tecna heard nothing but Musa's voice go silent.
"oh god he's here. Tec I'm going to call you back ok?" She put down the phone and looked up as the door opened to find that Riven had a frown on his face.
"Hey... Em..Riven ? I have something to tell you." She tried to force a smile but failed as she only felt her eyes tear up.
"Muse can't this wait for tomorrow, I just want to sleep right now." Riven murmured in his deep voice.
"No this cannot wait, Riven I need to tell you this now weather you like it or not!" The sternness of her voice caught his attention whilst he slowly turned around to look at her.
"What?"
"Do you remember that night on our anniversary?"
"How could I forget.." He smiled showing his neat pearly whites that lay in his mouth.
"I'm pregnant" she closed her eyes and hoped he say something other then negativity. But their was nothing but silence in the atmosphere around them. She could tell that he was panicking but she dared to open her eyes; maybe she would just faint right here right now to get out of this situation or just wake up from a dream, but no this was no dream...
After what seemed like eternity he made eye contact. He had nothing but a blank expression on his face.
"Are you sure?" Riven swallowed and sighed.
"Yes... I took three tests to make sure." Musa felt tears run dramatically down her cheeks and she struggled to speak. " I don't know what to do Riven, I'm scared. What if we are bad parents or we do something to hurt it or -" she felt his finger brush against her cheek. He shushed her when he put her head on his chest. The truth was that Riven hoped for those exact words to come out of her mouth for months now. The only let down was to see his love like this.
"Don't be scared, this is the best news I could ever come back home to. We are having a child, don't worry about anything else. Ok?" Musa smiled when she heard those words. Words of comfort filled her heat and made it feel warm again.
"Oh Riven," Musa looked up to kiss him once more.
"Everything is going to be alright Muse, trust me."*********************************************************************************
9 MONTHS LATER
"AAAARRRRRGGGGHHHHH!" Musa screamed so loud she nearly bust Rivens ear drums. It was 3:04 am and this was not the thing she hoped to be doing at this time.
"RIVVVVVEEEEENNNN!" Her contractions now getting worse, she held on to Riven's hand like their was no tomorrow. "IT HURTS!"
"I know hun, just try to relax its almost over now." Riven could feel his nerves getting the better of him but he refused to show it to Musa, after all he was Riven and he knew that this could not beat him.
"You are doing so well Musa, keep pushing ok?" The doctor called as he looked up at the now sweaty Musa.
"I CANT DO THIS NO MOREEEE!" She pushed as hard as he could only to hear the sound of a baby crying. Musa jumped up to take the first glance of her baby, even as it is covered in blood she still saw nothing but a beautiful baby.
"Here is your healthy baby boy." The doctor handed them their child.
"Oh Riven, look at his little hands." He gazed at him in awe knowing that he was going to grow old with her and their son. "Isn't he just perfect?"
"Yeah, he looks just like you." Riven stroked his newly born babies head. "So what are we going to call him?"
Musas completely forgot about baby names and stared into space for a couple of seconds. Her mind went blank when she tried to think of baby names. Nothing would come up.
"What about Chris?" He asked looking worryingly at Musa's facial expression.
"No, he doesn't look like a Chris."
"Finlay?"
"No Riven, we need something else. Something that really resembles him."
"How about Blaine?" Riven smiled when he saw Musa's eyes light up. She grinned and looked at her baby.
"Blaine Adam Celestrio, welcome to the world"...
