I Still Love You

Chapter 1: The Flashback

Hey guys! This is gonna be my 6th story but I deleted Love will save the universe so I hope you will enjoy my new story. If you like it, plz review and then I will post the next chapter :) I'm doing the Stella and Brandon story at the same time as this one if I finish The Hate and Love dilemma soon.

Musa POV

I was putting Melody to bed since its 7:00 PM. I can't believe how much she's grown up! She's grown up to be the most beautiful and sweetest 4 years old. She's grown up too fast for my liking but I'm happy to see her grow up healthily and happily. I can remember the times when she was a cute baby; she's so adorable. I tucked the blankets over her and she grinned at me. I sat on her bed next to her.

"Mommy...Can I ask you something?" Melody asked. She looked at me with those beautiful ocean blue eyes. Her eyes are lighter than mine. I stroked her long magenta hair and nodded. Her hair reminds me of Riven so much...oh, I miss him.

"W-well...d-do I have a-a..." Melody paused and then frowned. I frowned as well and kissed her forehead.
"What's the matter sweetie?" I questioned. Melody sighed a bit and then looked at me again.

"...a-a daddy?" Melody stuttered and then looked away. Oh no! What should I tell her now? I can't just tell her that her father left; she'll be heartbroken.

"Yes Melody but...he's...very busy with work" I lied. God, I hate lying to my daughter but it's the only thing I can say. I can't just tell her what actually happened. Melody frowned and nodded.
"Okay mommy" Melody whispered and hugged me. "I wish I can see him"

"You will...one day honey" I smiled and kissed her forehead again. Melody yawned and l lied back on the bed.

"Good night sweetie. Do you want hear a story or song?" I asked.

"No thank you" Melody replied, "I love you"

"I love you too Mel" I smiled and closed the door. I took a deep breath and ran to my room which is next to Melody's room. I closed the door behind me and dropped to the floor. No, I can't cry for that jerk. I miss him so much but I also hate him. I leaned on the door and sighed. I then felt tears running down my cheeks coz I still remember how he hurt me...

~Flash back~

I'm so excited about today! I am going on a date with Riven to celebrate our 4-years of being together! I love him so much and he's perfect for me. We are graduating from our colleges very soon and I can't wait! After that, I will be with Riven forever! Some people don't approve of me and him coz he's an arrogant jerk but I know he changed a bit ever since he dated me. Yea sure, he still has that bad attitude but I love him and I'm the only one who can see the real Riven. He's not like that at all.

I was putting on a red strapless dress that I bought yesterday. It ended just below my but and it was sparkling with glitter. It's perfect! I put on some matching red glittery heels, red earrings, and a red necklace. My long midnight blue hair was down and curled; I put on red lipstick and a bit of light purple eye shadow. I also applied black mascara and eyeliner to finish the look. I do admit, I am a girly girl now and I'm totally different to the old tomboy Musa. Riven says that he loves me for who I am; he's the perfect guy. Yes, he has flaws but who cares? I love him!

I then heard a knock on the door so I ran towards the door and opened it. I grinned when I saw him. He was dressed in a black suit! So handsome!

"Riven!" I smiled and wrapped my arms around his neck. He smiled a bit and wrapped his arms around my waist for a few seconds and then dropped his arms to the side. I pulled away and realised that he was frowning.

"What's wrong Riv?" I asked. Riven shook his head. "Nothing"

"Well okay. I'm gonna grab my purse" I smiled and ran back into mine and Tecna's dorm. I came back out and we walked to his Levi bike.
"By the way you look beautiful Muse" Riven said. I smiled as if saying 'thanks'. I was about to get on the Levi bike but then Riven stopped me by grabbing my wrist.

"Muse...I need to talk to you...in the forest, so can we take a walk?" Riven asked with an unsure and worried look. I nodded and took his hand. What's up with him today? He's acting so strangely...
I looked up at the dark sky filled with stars. It was beautiful. It was about 7:30 PM.

We walked through the forest in silence and it felt a bit awkward. I looked at Riven and saw him frowning; why is he doing it on our date? Did I do something wrong?

"Riven did I do something wrong, to upset you?" I asked. Riven immediately stopped walking and took my hands in his. He looked down, still frowning.

"M-Musa...I know you don't love me anymore" Riven frowned. What the hell is he saying?! Of course I still love him and I never stopped loving him!

"What the hell are you saying?! Of course I love you! I never stopped loving you!" I screamed. I can't believe he even asked me that!

"Stop lying Musa!" Riven shouted. I'm not even lying!
"I'm not lying and I don't even know where you came up with that!" I yelled. What was supposed to be a great and romantic walk turned into a disaster?

"Never mind! Forget I said anything!" Riven shouted and sighed. He walked around a bit and he looked so uneasy. He still had that frown on his face but I could also see a hint of fear? Was he nervous?

"Riven, you wanted to tell me something so what was it?! Please don't tell me that THAT was the thing you wanted to tell me!" I snapped. Riven took a deep breath and looked at me with hurt in his eyes. I know he wants to tell me something and I think he's finding it hard to tell me. I went up to him and kissed him on the lips, whilst wrapping my arms around his neck. He responded and wrapped his arms around my waist. The kiss was so sweet and passionate and it continued for about a minute.

Suddenly, Riven pushed me away, breaking the kiss. I looked at him with hurt in my eyes.
"Muse...we can't do this!" Riven growled and paced around.

"What?!" I raised my eyebrow.

"We can't be together! I..I...I need to break up with you" Riven stuttered and put his head down so that he can't see my reaction. Tears streamed down my cheeks and I whimpered. What? How could he do this to me? I...I thought he loves me! But why?

"Don't cry Mus-"

"TELL ME!" I shouted, "Why?" More tears came and made the top of my dress wet. Riven had an uneasy look and it looked like he didn't want to tell me.

"I...you'll never understand" Riven hissed.

"Of course I won't understand until you actually tell me!" I shrieked.

"Stop making it hard Musa!" Riven shouted and ran his fingers through his magenta hair.

"I'M NOT MAKING IT HARD! YOU ARE COZ YOU'RE NOT TELLING ME WHY YOU WANT TO BREAK UP WITH ME!" I yelled so loudly that birds flew away from the trees.

"You don't need to know the reason why!" Riven screeched. I ran up to him and slapped him hardly on his cheek. He winced a bit. He deserves it since he's not telling me why the hell he is breaking up with me!

"Is it coz you love somebody else?! Who is it Riven?! Who is it huh?!" I cried.

"Nobody Muse! Just stop yelling!" Riven scolded very loudly that it made me frightened.

"Let's just move on with our lives and forget about each other!" Riven shouted and started to walk away. I followed him while he was walking.

"What made you do this? Can't you remember all the good times we spent together? Was all of that a lie?! I love you Riven but I can't believe you're doing this to me!" I cried. Riven stopped.

"You're fucking annoying Musa. Leave me alone!" Riven snapped and started walking again. His fists were in a ball and I was terrified but I need answers. Why is he breaking up with me with no fucking reason?! I went in front of him and glared at him.

"Just tell me why you want to break up with me and then I'll leave you alone!" I yelled in his face. Riven looked at me with a deadly glare.

"Coz I never loved you" Riven muttered and pushed me to the side. That was all I needed to hear. He NEVER loved me. That was enough for me...

~End of flashback~

I winced and cried even more. Just hearing those 5 words kills me. I can't believe he did this to me. I actually thought I would have a future with that jerk. But it turns out I was wrong. But I still don't understand. I'm sure that's not the full reason why he broke up with me. There's more to it, and I'm never gonna find out. After that thing happened, I find out that I was pregnant a week later with Riven's baby. He was the first man I ever slept with. I also graduated from Alfea after that and I never saw him again. The Winx and Specialists never saw him either. I wanted to keep my baby coz I can't just let it be killed. I'm not that horrible.

And now here I am. The Winx have separated and they live with their husbands, the specialists of course, and they also have children. The Specialists was horrified when they found out about my break up with Riven a few years ago. They promised not to be friends with him anymore. He's a monster. I raised Melody alone and I'm doing just fine. I don't need that ass hole. I'm perfectly fine. But Melody reminds me so much of him. She's just like him so the memories came flooding back.

I'm happy for my friends. They live in their own planets. All of them married the man they love and they're happy. It just didn't work out with me and Riven. I also kept wondering what Riven's doing time to time. He's probably a player. He might be cheating on some girls and I bet he has hundreds of girls. Now, this is just what I'm thinking. I may be wrong, but he's a selfish liar. I hate him so much. I never saw him again since that day. And I promised myself that he'll never get to meet his own daughter since he broke up with me in a hurtful way. He doesn't deserve to meet Melody. And Melody deserved a better father than him. She deserves so much more. I love her so much and I won't let anything bad happen to her.

I got up from the floor and sat on my bed. Maybe I will meet Riven again some day...but I will never forgive him for what he did to me. No, us...

Okay, the first chapter is boring and it sounds like the story is a sad story, but I promise you, it isn't! It will get better in the next chapter so plz keep reading! If none of you like it then I might delete it and do a different story but if you like it, plz review! Tell me what you think and I will post the next chapter soon. Thanks for reading!

This chapter might be bad but it will get better. By the way, in the next chapter you'll see the Winx and their children and then Melody goes to school. But who is the teacher? Will it be someone you'd never expect? Oh and Musa will meet someone new but I promise that this story will have a happy ending. I never do stories that ends with Musa or Riven being with someone else and they will be together soon! Will Melody actually meet her own father?

Oh, and the Stella and Brandon story is coming soon. I'm doing it at the same time as this story if I can :)
