Hey all you Winx Club Fans out there :)

This is the sequel to my other story 'Behind the Melody'. This story has been in the works for almost a year and I wanted to finish the story before putting it up on fanfiction in case I don't get much time to write.

Full Summary: An extraordinary opportunity arises for the Winx Club when they become stars. But will this new found fame prove too much to handle when it starts to bring hurt, betrayal and secrets. Will it reveal sides of the winx that you didn't know existed? Are they ready for what lies ahead? Will this be the end of the Winx Club for good?

I do not own winx club or the songs in this story.

I hope you enjoy :)

It was that time of year at Alfea where all the students spend a week completing an internship at any location in Magix. Mrs Faragonda thought that it would make a great opportunity for her students to learn how to help people out in the real world and get involved in their community. She thought it would be a great learning curve for future guardian fairies and queens.

Stella chose 'Teen-fairy', again, but this time, she was a journalist for the do's and don'ts column, known as "Stella says."

Flora decided to go to the 'Magix Botanical Gardens' as the herbal specialist, being the tour guide for visitors, and heal the plants when they're sick.

Tecna went to 'Magix Industries' , a wealthy technology company that designs and manufactures new and improved technological advances for the magical community. She was one of their designers, as well as an advisor to one of their leading engineers.

Bloom didn't know what to pick. She couldn't decide on anything, but the thing that caught her eye, was kids. So she chose the little primary school. She decided on being a teacher's assistant for grade 2's. She helped them in arts and crafts, taught them how to read books, and taught them some nursery rhymes. She loved her job so much that some of the kids started calling her 'Aunty Bloom'.

Layla was at the local gym as a personal trainer. The minute she walked into the gym, they hired her on the spot. Maybe it was her well fit body, or the fact that they saw her drag Stella through the front door and onto the machines earlier that week, but not one of the staff could deny how perfect Layla was for the job. She helped unfit clients get into shape, and also from time to time filled in as an aerobics instructor when staff was short-handed.

And finally, Musa; after her and the Winx's success at Alfea's singing competition the previous semester, she was offered a job, courtesy of Flora's 'inspiration'. It was not a one week internship like the other girls, but a part-time job as a song writer for 'Sony Magix Music'. She loved it there and had a great time. Over the time she worked there, all of the songs she wrote for singers, signed by the company, had all become number 1 on the charts.

And so, our story begins...

It was a normal day for the students of Alfea, as far as 'Internship week' was concerned. The girls all went to their internships at their specific times, and arrived back at school after their shifts. This week, the girls had no classes, no assignments, and best of all, no Griselda yelling at them to get out of bed. Some students didn't have work until the middle of the day, which left them more than enough time to sleep in.

Musa arrived at a tall building in the centre of Magix that had a large music note on top of it. It was 'Sony Magix Music', the place that she called home, her third home after Alfea.

Musa walked in wearing black pants, black high heeled shoes and a red polo shirt that had the company's logo on the left side with their name on it. She walked through the sliding doors and revelled in the familiar stunning room. It had light grey shiny tiles on the floor, windows all over the walls lighting up the place, plants and lounge chairs were specifically placed in the corners of the room. People were bustling all around the room following instructions following through with their day-to-day routines. In front of Musa was a large white desk with a large computer sitting on top of it, and there, sat the nicest receptionist. Musa walked up to the desk and smiled at the receptionist who looked up at her and smiled.

The receptionist had stunning long red hair and wore a white blouse with black pants and black high heels. She wore a diamond ring on her left hand and wore a headset on her head.

"Good morning Musa," the receptionist greeted after placing a person on hold.

"Morning Erika," Musa replied with a smile. "How did Tony's interview with the board go?"

"He said that it went very well. I have sent you Tony's notes and your to-do list." Erika answered.

"Okay, cool. Thanks." And with that, Musa walked past the desk and walked through the see-through glass doors behind the reception desk to reveal hallways with offices galore and people rushing around.

Tony was Musa's boss. He was everyone's boss. He was CEO of the company. He signed singers with his company and dealt out managers to them. He also handled anything that came to the singers, the company, and making the company a success. He was the man that awarded Musa the position as head song writer at his company after she and the Winx won the competition. Tony was really nice and a laid back boss that treated her with respect. He was so cool that he had a billiard table in his office and sometimes offers employees to play. He claims that he has it when he's stuck for an idea, but everyone knows that that is just a cover up so that the board won't suspect anything.

As Musa walked down the halls, people smiled at her and greeted her warmly. Some were other co-workers, others were some of the company's singers under contract, and others were people of the public such as journalists and photographers.

Musa walked down the hall until she came to one office, which also had see-through walls and a glass door. Musa opened the glass door and walked inside the room. It had pure white carpets, 2 lounge chairs on the left with coffee tables, and a white desk on the right which sat a young girl. Opposite to the desk was a solid closed door which led to Musa's own office.

"Good Morning Miss Musa," the girl behind the desk said standing up from her seat behind the desk.

Musa smiled to herself. "Ellie, please stop calling me that, I hate formalities."

"Sorry Miss-...I mean, Musa" Ellie said and sat back down in her seat.

Musa laughed as she opened the door and walked in. Musa's office was simple, yet luxurious. It had white carpet on the floor, a white desk with files, papers and a red laptop sitting atop it. A swivel chair was placed behind the desk and there was a printer on a bench behind her. Hundreds of instruments were stacked, placed, tucked and were hung all around the room; saxophones, clarinets, flutes, drums, keyboards, guitars, bass guitars, you name the instrument, and it was in her office. There was a stunning grand white piano in the right corner next to a pair of giant windows that couldn't be opened and had no blinds or curtains.

Musa placed her bag on the floor next to her desk and sat down in her swivel chair. She opened her laptop and plugged in a USB. Just as Musa plugged in the USB, a knock was heard at the door.

"Come in" Musa called.

The door opened to reveal her assistant Ellie at the door.

"Sorry to bother you Musa" Ellie said almost blushing. "But I have Tony's notes for you and your to-do list Erika sent earlier."

"Oh right" Musa remembered.

Ellie walked over to Musa and handed her a file full of sticky notes and pages of notes. Musa opened the file and immediately a rose fell from the file. It was a gorgeous thornless red rose with a note on the stem. Musa looked at it, and read, "For my darling success".

"Ellie" Musa called as Ellie was about to close the door.

"Yes?" she answered.

"Who is this from?" Musa asked.

Ellie smiled warmly. "It is from your 10 o'clock appointment," she replied before she closed the door.

Musa took out her date book from a draw on her desk and opened it up to today. She looked down at her scheduled times until she came across 10 o'clock. There was nothing there. Musa looked at the clock and it read 9:30 am.

"I have 30 minutes to figure out who my 10 o'clock is." Musa thought to herself.

Musa shrugged it off as a mistake or a joke played by Tony or some of the other workers she came to think of as friends. She returned her attention back to her laptop and began work on a new song called 'Little Bird' for a country singer that Tony hired the previous month.

The time went by quickly. Musa felt like 5 minutes had gone by, but it turned out to be 30 minutes. Soon it was time for her 10 o'clock appointment. Musa stood up from her chair, stretched her back, walked over to her window and stood staring out at the view. She found herself staring out the window a lot lately. It gave her a calm feeling seeing how relaxed the city was now that Baltor was gone for good.

Another knock was heard at the door as Ellie walked in again.

"Musa, your 10 o'clock appointment is here, and you have another appointment at 11:15 for a group of singers." Ellie informed.

"Okay, thanks. Send them in." Musa replied without taking her eyes off the view.

"This way please, sir." Musa heard Ellie instruct before she heard the footsteps of a person entering her office.

Ellie closed the door behind him as the person waited behind Musa. Musa could tell without turning around that this guy had very heavy breathing and shuffled their feet as they walked. Musa loved having sonic hearing. The person walked up behind Musa and covered her eyes with their hands.

Musa jumped at the sudden contact and then realised who it was and a huge smile crawled onto her face. She felt like slapping her forehead for not realising that her next appointment was actually the one person she cared for the most.

"Riven" Musa said happily and she could feel their bodies touching as Riven started to softly kiss her neck.

Musa giggled at the action as he took his hands away from her eyes and wrapped them around her waist.

"Hey" Riven replied as he continued to kiss her neck.

"Riven, this is a workplace, you can't do that here" Musa said giggling.

"This is your office" Riven informed.

"With people walking in and out of here at any time" she reminded him.

Riven sighed as he stopped kissing Musa's neck and just rested his chin on her shoulder.

"Let me guess, you didn't know about my appointment even though I sent you a rose" Riven joked.

"Maybe..." Musa answered playfully.

"Oh, I'm hurt" Riven said with a laugh.

Musa turned herself around in Riven's arms and their eyes met.

"I'm sorry...what can I do to make it up to you?" Musa asked as their faces got close.

"I can think of something" Riven replied as he looked into her eyes.

Musa smiled and gave Riven a kiss. It was soft at first, giving Riven time to stop smiling, but then started to get a little passionate as Riven moved his arms from her waist to one on the back of her neck and the other in her hair, and her hands wrapped around his neck. It was about to get even more passionate when a buzz was heard from Musa's desk.

The sudden noise made Musa jump as she released Riven's neck from her grip. She left Riven's embrace and went over to her desk. The noise was coming from a small answering machine that was an intercom between her and Ellie.

Musa pressed the button to make the buzzing stop. Musa was a little breath taken from her almost make-out session with Riven and sounded flushed when she spoke.

"Yes Ellie?" Musa asked flushed into the machine.

"Sorry to interrupt, Musa" Ellie began. "But Tony needs to see you immediately"

Musa sighed as she turned to Riven knowing that he would have to leave. She thought that she would at least get some time between her first appointment of the day, to make-out with her boyfriend in her office.

"Alright" Musa sighed. "When?"

"Now" a voice said coming from the door.

Musa and Riven turned to see a tall man with light orange hair, being pulled back in a ponytail, standing at the door.

"Mr James" Musa said trying to cover up the fact that her boyfriend was in her office.

"Good morning, Musa" Tony said with a smile. Her turned his attention to the magenta haired specialist to his right standing by the window.

"And you too, Riven. So nice to see you visiting your girlfriend while she's at work" Tony added sincerely.

"I do anything for my girl, you know that Tony" Riven replied with a laugh.

"Right, well, if you don't mind, I would like to-"

Another buzz from the intercom sounded interrupting Tony in mid-sentence.

"Yes?" Musa answered.

"Musa, there's a call on line one. It's kind of urgent" Ellie replied.

"Can it wait? I'm in a meeting with the boss."

"They say that it is a matter of life and death"

"Fine" Musa said putting the phone on loud speaker. "Good morning, this is Musa" Musa greeted.

"Musa!" several voices cried through the phone.

"Good morning Miss Musa, this is your 11.15 appointment requesting a cancellation to talk to you while on lunch break" a perky girl said.

"Hey guys" Musa replied happily hearing her friends' voices. "Stella, were you the one who phoned in that late appointment?"

"Guilty as charged" Stella answered through the phone.

"I thought you guys were at internship" Musa stated.

"We were, its Friday, Musa. It's our last day, and on our last day, we finish at 11" Tecna informed.

"That's awesome you guys" Musa congratulated.

"Hmmm" Tony said clearing his throat to get Musa's attention. "Musa, if you don't mind, I love your friends just as much as you do, they are a lot of fun, but I really need to see you now."

"Who's that?" Bloom asked.

"It's Tony!" Stella yelled happily. "Hi Tony!"

"Hi girls, if you don't mind, we really do have to get back to our meeting" Tony said.

"Whatever you say in front of her, you can say in front of us" Stella exclaimed as Musa blushed.

"Very well" Tony said caving in. "Musa, you've worked here for what, 4 months?"

"It's been 5 actually" Tecna said through the phone making Musa face palm herself for having an intelligent friend.

"Right" Tony corrected. "Well, since then, you have written almost 15 songs that have all hit number one on the charts for each artist."

"Thanks" Musa began.

"I'm not done yet," Tony said hinting that that's not the best part. "I have seen what you can do Musa. I've seen you sing, and now, I have seen you write number 1 songs. Because of this, I want to sign you up with my company."

The girls all cheered and whistled through the phone as Musa was left gob smacked and Riven smirking in the background.

"W-w...what?" Musa asked confused

"You heard me" Tony answered playfully. "I want you to be a singer for Sony Magix Music. You shall keep this office, have your own band, write your own songs, CD's, performances, tours, the works."

"I don't know what to say" Musa said completely gob smacked.

"Say yes" Riven said with a smile.

"Say yes...say yes...say yes" the girls all chanted through the phone.

"Alright, I'll do it" Musa answered as the girls all cheered. "As long as the girls are my band, we're a team. I don't do it without them."

"Done" Tony agreed shaking Musa's hand.

The girls were screeching and yelling through the phone with so much excitement, more than Musa was showing at this point. Too embarrassed to let it show.

"Musa, you're now a singer, prepare for the road to stardom" Tony exclaimed. And with that he let himself out of Musa's office.

Well that was the first chapter :) Please tell me what you think :)

Until next time.
