༊*·˚ second | riven
★ summary : riven went to your room and found some pretty interesting things about you, oh! also about your little crush on him. 
★ warnings : reader is stella’s sister, angst, slight suicidal thoughts, jealous!reader, slight miscommunication, based on the song heather by conan gray
MAIN MASTERLIST
˚ ༘♡ ⋆。˚
You have been the second choice for as ling as you can remember. Being the little sister of Stella, you couldn't actually get away from that. 
Always being left by friends because the other one got more popular. Always having last to be picked in a group assignment. 
Always. 
Until one day you didn't feel like that anymore. Until one day you met him. 
It's weird honestly, having feelings for your sister's boyfriend's best friend. 
That was confusing. 
With Riven you always felt like the first choice. The top priority, and not the backup plan. 
But all of that went down the drain when he suddenly had this thing with Beatrix. 
At first you thought it was just a fling. Although that still hurt you, you thought it was anything but having emotions. 
But they got closer, and to anyone, in one glance they could probably say that they're a couple. 
You were fiddling with your pen in one hand, the bottom of it hitting softly at your forehead while the other holding your journal, you jotting down your latest feels and adventures. With the soft voice of Conan Gray filled the calm atmosphere. 
Everyone was out partying and you chose to stay in your bedroom. It was totally not because you were avoiding someone. 
Totally. 
Okay fine you were. You didn't want to see the guy you're into sucking faces with another person. 
"I still remember," the first verse of the song already made you let out a grunt, the song literally sounded what you felt currently. 
But as much as you wanted to turn it off, it was such a heartfelt song that you just couldn't. So you joined in singing it. 
"Third of December," you softly sang as you continued to write about what interesting thing has happened in the past week. 
"me in your sweater," the lyric made you think about a memory of you and Riven. You just have gotten into a fight with your mother, all the yelling sent your mind into a spiral, you felt like honestly drowning yourself. 
It was just too much. 
You didn't know why but your legs carried you to Riven and Sky's room. Your nose twitches every so often as the cold air hits you. 
You knocked on the door and Riven woke up from his sleep, opening it. It left him slightly baffled to see you with red puffy eyes with tear stains on your cheeks. 
The door creaked open and your heart skipped a beat looking at his shirtless figure, with bed hair. 
God he looked so good. 
He moved to the side to let you in the room, and as you were in, you immediately tackled the boy into a hug. 
You're on your tippy toes, arms wrapped around his neck, your nose inhaling his scent. 
The scent alone made you calmer but when he securely wrapped his hands around your waist, you felt home. 
"You're okay. You're okay." he soothed out as his fingers gently played with your hair. 
Sky was out so it's only you two in their room. 
Your shaking figure calmed down as he moved you guys to the bed. Softly laying you down. 
He noticed how you ran your hands to your arms, trying to get a sense of heat in the chilly atmosphere. So he went to grab his sweater from the closet and hand it to you. 
You look up at him confused, "What's this for?" you asked. 
"You looked like you were cold." he said, shrugging his shoulders and nudging his sweater closer to you. 
"Thanks." you smiled and didn't take down the offer as you quickly wore it. The familiar scent of him filled your nostrils as you sighed in relief, feeling the warmth enveloping you. 
"You wanna talk about it?" he asked softly, sitting down beside you on his bed — not wanting to break you more in your already fragile state. 
You were too tired to think as you shook your head. "No." 
"Alright, you can stay here tonight if you'd like." he nervously offered. As close as you guys are, you didn't actually go past the 'cuddling' stage. 
You felt your heartbeat picked up, as you said, "Are you sure? I don't want to be a bother-" 
"Yeah I'm sure." he answered quickly, ending your rambling. 
You let out a soft 'okay' as you laid back onto his bed. The softness of the mattress invites your sleepiness. 
Your body curled up in a ball as you rested on your left side. The bed dipped down indicating Riven moved to lay beside you.
It was awkward for a minute, Riven wanting nothing more than to just hold you close to him, but he doesn't want to make you uncomfortable. So he just laid there staring up at the ceiling.
You were already half asleep as you moved to your other side and curled up with him. 
He froze for a second, a lot of thoughts cursing through his head. It was almost like you could feel his stiff figure as you snuggled more into him, arms went to his stomach, your head on his chest.
A loop-sided grin made its way to Riven's face as he relaxed his body, his hand moved to your back drawing circles and having the best sleep in his life.
As the memory faded away, the song already is at it's chorus, "but I watch your eyes as she walks by, what a sight for sore eyes,"
You were so into the song you didn't even realise your bedroom door was open, there stood Riven staring at you in awe.
The boy has never heard you sing before and it blew him away.
"brighter than the blue sky, she's got you mesmerised, while I die," you softly continued as little pricks of tears came on the edge of your eyes.
While you were at your table, Riven moved from his spot and moved to your bed as it creaked, immediately stopping you from singing more.
You jumped up from your spot and was met with Riven staring adoringly at you. 
"Do you not know what knocking is?!" you shrieked at him. Mad that he scared you like that and because he caught you singing a song when you were thinking of him.
Riven ignored your little outburst as he said, "Why didn't you tell me you can sing?" with a small smirk on his face.
You sighed, as you answered his question with a question. "What are you doing here?" the edge to your voice was almost unrecognisable but Riven picked that up first thing.
His smile faltered, but he shrugged his shoulders acting like he didn't care. "The party got boring." in all honesty he just missed you, but he wouldn't tell you that. 
You clenched your jaw, the second result. Again. "Well, where's Beatrix? Thought she was keeping you company." the tone of your voice dipped with such venom. 
From snapping more, you moved around your room picking up clothes that were on the floor to distract yourself.
Riv looked at you, distraught. What did he do? He thought. 
He too moved from his spot and went to the table, noticing the book you once held. 
You were too angry and pissed to notice him flicking some of the pages. 
First it was all about the classes, the colour of the sky, the teacher being annoying. 
But one sentence got his eye, it was his name. 
okay maybe i do have a teeny weensy crush on riven but that's just it. 
it's how it's always been, and nothing is going to change that. 
oh my god why am i writing like i'm a̶c̶u̶a̶t̶l̶y actually talking to you. 
shit i'm late for class, bye love u. 
Riven's eyes widened as his mouth gaped wide open. 
The silence disturbed you as you looked back at him, noticing his shocked face, looking into your journal. 
The clothes you once held all fell to the floor as you rushed to your table snatching the book away. 
"What is wrong with you?!" you finally snapped. The rage and embarrassment bubbling inside you. 
"Is it true?" he softly asked, meeting your eyes. You looked away immediately to be ashamed that he found out this way. 
"It doesn't matter. You should go." you bitterly spat out, shoving your journal into the edge of the table where no one would think to look for it. 
Riven scoffed, "Yeah, it does." he said, moving to stand in front of you. 
You hesitantly met his eyes, "No it doesn't." you said to him firmly, almost threatening him to not talk about it any further. 
But we all know how stubborn Riven is, he's not going to back down for his life. 
"Why didn't you tell me?" he asked harshly. 
"And what? For you to just leave me? What would happen? What would happen differently, Riv? Tell me." your voice went louder as the sentence went, your head held highly in front of him. 
The tension in the room could be cut with a knife, you didn't even realise you took a step forward. Your chests are almost touching each other. 
Your breathing was heavy because all the pent up feelings you have for the boy in front of you coming out like a tidal wave. 
The tension was too much for Riven as cupped your face in his hands and connected his lips with yours. 
You sharply took an intake of breath, the kiss sent you speechless. But he pulled away before you could even respond. 
"That would happen." he breathed out, head fuzzy from the kiss. You don't know how much he has dreamt about kissing you. 
"Oh." you stupidly let out, not comprehending the situation at hand. 
Riven chuckled as his hands went down wrapping them around your waist. 
"Wait, wait what about Beatrix?" you asked, not wanting to be solved as the second choice, again. 
"Nothing." he said, staring at you with that look. 
"Nothing?" you questioned, raising your eyebrows. 
He nodded, "Yeah, nothing. You're my first choice, always." a smile made its way to his lips, loving the feeling of you in his hands. 
You grinned and your lips sealed once again. Your hands rest on his chest, him bringing you closer by your waist. 
I wish I were heather.

This is war, pt. 2
Tumblr media
PART 1  
Summary: Riven finds himself struggling to keep up with Y/N’s mind games while he plots his own revenge.
Warnings: violence, sexual innuendos, swearing
Pairing: Riven x specialist!reader
__________________
Smirking, Y/N winks at Riven as he passes through the training grounds to take his place. There are dark, purple circles under his eyes and a thin white tape across his nose. Part of her still finds satisfaction in breaking Riven's nose a few days ago, because the look of absolute disbelief in his eyes would fuel her confidence in training for weeks. 
Ever since it happened, she's been unbeatable and quite a few guys have had their egos bruised. Thanks to Andreas and his inclusivity rules, girls vs. boys training battles have proven Riven wasn't the only one slacking with his training under Saul's care.
"You did that, didn't you", Sky asks.
Looking up at her ex, Y/N shrugs off his amused grin.
"Did he tell you that?"
"He didn't have to", Sky chuckles. "The death stare he gives you is pretty hard to miss."
Biting her lower lip, she suppresses a smile. "I like his death stare."
"No", Sky lowers his voice to a near whisper. "You like Riven."
Raising her brows, she turns to him. "Actually, I despise him."
Sky frowns, "Since when do you lie to me?"
"Since when is my love life of interest to you?"
Clearing his throat, Sky purses his lips. "Since I realized you dated me, but actually wanted my best friend."
Rolling her eyes, she lets out an annoyed huff. "We haven't trained together in a while", she notes. "Perhaps it's time we get into a rink and you can clear out those frustrations you seem to harbor about us from a year ago."
"I don't have any", Sky remarks. "You're just mad I can read you so easily."
"I'm mad because you going to start rumors saying shit like that!" Y/N whisper shouts. "I'd rather not have my name tied to Riven for the rest of our days here."
"Because you hate him?" Sky furrows his brows, skeptical about her reasoning.
"Yes. Also because he's a womanizer and I'd rather not end up on some slimy little list of his conquests others seem to keep."
Nodding, Sky keeps his eyes firmly on her as she turns to where Riven was winning his fight with Dane.
"That's fair, but you might want to forget about your reservations concerning Riven and actually get to know him. I think you'd be a good pair. He might be exactly what you're looking for."
Snorting, she places her hands on her hips. "Just because you saw me naked, doesn't mean you know everything about me, Sky."
"I didn't mean to", Sky begins but she's quick to shut him up.
"And yet you did. Keep your ill-conceived notions about me and Riven to yourself. I broke his damn nose, I didn't fuck him. That's how it's going to stay."
Passing by Sky, Y/N headed to school, still angry. She should have stayed and fought someone else to let the frustrations out of her system but she needed to get away from both Sky and Riven. Of course she likes Riven, she knows that too, but not this version of him. Unlike the freshman she liked, this version of him makes her blood boil and if they were stuck in a locked room somewhere she'd probably murder him within an hour.
Besides, Riven has been anything but shy about the way he dislikes Y/N. The snarky remarks about her clothes, the glares he'd send her way whenever she'd dare look at him with that disgusting scowl he sports, the constant jabs at her fighting abilities, and the incessant moaning about her presence in his life have made it very, very clear what he thinks of her.
Why would she ever want to admit she might have liked him? That she waited for him to ask her out and yet he never did. Sky got to her first, he was the one who had taken initiative and for a while, Y/N didn't think about Riven. Sky was a wonderful, much needed distraction. But as all distractions, it couldn't last forever and when she parted ways with Sky, Riven seemed almost tolerable.
Until now. She enjoyed torturing him for a change.
It irks her how little he seems to care for the way his actions affect others, so she made sure to show him what it’s like when the tables turn and he’s on the receiving end.
To make it easier, Y/N set a tutoring session with Sky for the next day. Riven was on schedule for guard duty and so they had the room to themselves. As Sky was busy with a mini exam she gave him, Y/N used the bathroom – BUT she also tampered with Riven’s shampoo bottle. It was easy to tell which one was his, all she needed was a whiff after which she completed her prank. Would she ever admit how she identified exactly which shampoo bottle was his because somehow she knew what Riven’s hair smells like? Never.
The next day, Riven showed up to training with a full head of bubblegum pink hair. Most of the guys stared and laughed at him, the girls taking pictures for posterity. His grouchy face only made it better for once, even the seemingly permanent scowl on his face was entertaining.
“I think we have a lost fairy on our hands”, she remarked as Riven’s nostrils flare.
“Watch it”, he warns her only to be met with a smug smirk on her face. His jaw drops and his eyes narrow at her, “You did this!”
Raising her hands in mock surrender, Y/N bites her lower lip and shrugs innocently. “I’m not sure what you mean.”
Clenching his jaw, it took Riven less than a second to tower over her with a menacing glare. “Don’t play with me.”
“Is your puffed out chest meant to scare me?” Y/N raises a brow before whispering, “Because we both know I can take you in a fight.”
Pursing his lips, he grimaces.
“Besides, I’d never choose pink. Purple would suit those bruises much better”, she winks before taking a step back. “Or maybe I would? It kinda makes your eyes poP!”
All but growling, Riven grabs her by the arm, pulling her up to his chest. With his free hand, he grips her jaw tightly, his fingertips pressing into the bone as he raises her head up. “What is your damage?!”
“Talent”, she smirks, ignoring the ache his fingers are causing. She’s always bruised easily and this felt like it’s going to need a good makeup trick to cover in the coming week, making a mental note to call up Stella for tips.
“Riven”; Sky raises his voice, “Let her go!”
“Talent for being a bitch”, Riven states before releasing her from his grip. “I’d watch my back if I were you.”
“Is that a threat”, she folds her arms over her chest. “Or a promise?” Walking past him, she pauses as her shoulder brushes his arm. “Because I do like it from the back.”
Blinking fast, Riven rubs his chin in exasperation. He’s not entirely sure what he woke up in Y/N with that sparring session, but it can’t be good. He wanted to make her fall in love with him, to make a play for her heart and shatter it, but this? She’s too good at playing with his mind…or perhaps he’s just too easily angered. Either way, his plan will never work if he doesn’t let up on her.
“Y/L/N!” He calls out, seeing her turn halfway to meet his gaze with slight confusion. It seems she thought she had the last word and hearing his voice threw her off for a moment. “I kinda like it”, he points to his atrocious hair. “You’re right about making my eyes pop. I’ll make sure to let you look deeply in them before I knock you on your ass later today.”
“What?”
Coming closer, he purses his lips. “I’m asking you to spar with me.”
“Again?”
Shrugging, he smirks. “Well, I didn’t ask the first time. We were assigned to each other.”
“And you want to do it voluntarily now?” She narrows her eyes before sighing. “I don’t trust you.”
“And I don’t trust you”, he remarks. “But I want to train with the best and as much as it pains me to admit it…you’re one of the top students in our class.”
Frowning, she takes a step closer. “You’re lying.”
“Am I?”
Gnawing at the inside of her bottom lip, she nods. “Hand to hand, no weapons.”
“I’ll even let you have a safe word”, Riven wiggles his eyebrows while hers furrow.
“I don’t know what you’re planning, but I don’t like it.”
Chuckling, he nods. “We both know you’ll still show up.”
“Why’s that?” She tilts her head ever so slightly to the left, a few loose strands of hair falling on her face from behind her ear. She usually braids her hair ahead of training, but it’s in a loose, messy bun today. Riven wondered why, but he’d never ask. He shouldn’t even be wondering about her choices in hair styling.
“You’re far too curious not to come.” Riven licks his lips, glancing at hers in the process. “It’s probably going to get you killed one of these days.”
“I’m sure you’d love that.”
“Not as much as you’d expect”, Riven counters. “As much as I despise your existence, you make life interesting…sometimes.”
Taking a step back, she nods carefully. “I definitely don’t trust you now.”
“Why not?”
“One minute you want me dead, another you compliment me? Either you’re completely bonkers, or you’re plotting something.”
“Don’t pretend you’re not plotting too”, he grins. “So I’ll see you today?”
Glancing at Sky with uncertainty, contemplating the light shake of his head she took as a warning, Y/N sighs. “Sure. Might as well see if the pink hair gives you any edge.”
“It definitely has magic powers.” Riven chuckles. “Got us to have a semi normal conversation, didn’t it?”
Swallowing thickly, she nods. “After you wanted to choke me.”
“Thought you said you’re into it”, Riven bites his lower lip as he notices her cheeks darken and her eyes widen as everyone turns their attention to her. He made sure he was loud enough for everyone to hear it and he was even louder when he spoke next. “Or is it only when you’re pressed against a wall?”
Riven never saw her cheeks so red and for a moment he was sure her eyes would explode as his words made everyone whisper among themselves, the rumors about them already flying. If he knows Y/N at all, it will drive her insane. She messed with his hair, but he can mess with her just as well.
If war is what she wanted, then war she’ll get.

sfw hcs, the specialists.
summary: the specialists and sfw hcs!
warnings: fairy!reader and not fully proof read yet!
notes: i know winx probably doesn’t have much of a fandom on here but honestly this show gives me so much nostalgia so enjoy!
Tumblr media
sky ✿
sky spoils you so much, he treats you like a princess, which is ironic considering he’s a prince.
to him, you’re his world, he’d never do anything to hurt you and he loves you so much.
sometimes, when the two of you are relaxing together, he lets you style his slightly long hair.
speaking of relaxing together, that’s one of his favourite dates, when the two of you just spend time at a cafe, getting a break from the chaotic fairy and specialist duties you usually deal with.
brandon ✿
you were one of the few people to first know that sky and brandon switched names. brandon wanted to be completely honest about the switch and you understood due to sky’s feelings about wanting to try a normal lifestyle.
literally the sweetest boyfriend ever, he treats you so good. he’s so gentle and loving with you, your heart melts every time you’re with him.
he doesn’t get jealous that often and neither do you, the two of you trust each other and have a relationship that’s really built on honesty and loyalty.
riven ✿
no one would’ve thought the two of you would get together, as riven has a high temper and you pretty much have no temper, always calm and relaxed. in fact, the only people that suspected something was going on with the two of you were bloom and sky, they always took notice of the flirty comments and subtle touches between the two of you. however, ever since you’ve announced your relationship with the hotheaded specialist, you’ve been extremely happy with him, and your friends started relaxing exactly how much sense the two of you make.
you’re a balanced couple that occasionally has rough patches, as riven can get really jealous and insecure, but you guys always make it out and your love grows even more. riven loves you and never wants to make you feel less than appreciated.
his favourite date with you consists of literally anything that involves you two being near each other, but he especially loves when you and him help your friends defeat the newest villain. he also loves when you cuddle with him, as he’s really just a softie deep down, constantly wanting to be touching you. he’s a huge fan of pda, unless you’re uncomfortable with it.
helia ✿
you and helia go together so well, no one was surprised when the two of you made your relationship official. your both calm and loving people, quickly becoming one of the best couples out of your friend group.
you love his hair so much. he just lets you run your fingers through his hair and style it into stupid little ponytails and buns, the man not even complaining about it, actually secretly enjoying it.
he’s literally the best boyfriend. he is always at your side when you need comfort and he gives you all his love.
timmy ✿
it took a while for timmy to build up the courage to ask you out, but once he did, you happily said yes.
the two of you are the definition of ‘opposites attract.’ you’re outgoing and a social butterfly, compared to timmy, who’s shy and doesn’t talk to many people aside from his friends.
he isn’t a big fan of pda, but behind closed doors, he’s always wanting to be close to you.

Too Far Gone
He hated it, the power she held over him. That she'd never needed her magic to see into the poisoned depths of him. The pressure that never seemed to escape the cage of his ribs. The ache, worse than any blade that had pierced his skin. Worse than any broken bone or wound from a Burned One.
And yet he loved it. That the never-ending pain only ever dulled when he was with her.
read on ao3
A 2023 @winxsource Holiday Exchange gift for my angsty soulmate, fellow Bloody!Riven enthusiast, and multi-fandom friend, @leadingrebel. It is an honor and joy to gift you the sweetest and most blood-splattered story I could come up with. And an endless thank you to the amazing @skloomdumpster and @fitztragedy for all their effort in bringing this event to life with their special holiday magic xx

Begin Again (Part 9)
"Talk about the devil," her brother remarked, nodding towards the figure at the entrance. "That's definitely my cue to leave!"
And he hurried off in quick footsteps.
She approached him, smiling but a bit puzzled.
"I thought I'd check on you after today's events," he began.
"That's very considerate of you, Riven. You didn't have to," she said appreciatively.
"As crazy as this is going to sound, I care. I can only imagine what happened this evening, so I had to make sure to check on you," he replied sincerely.
"That's very sweet. I am fine. Thank you for taking the time to do that, especially after the hectic day you must have had yourself. You're a good friend," she replied warmly.
He chuckled nervously. "Friend... yeah. Well, this friend saw some pretty ugly shits this evening, and thought he might just take a another big risk before the next attack. We never know, I could run out of luck."
She frowned, puzzled. "I needed to make sure you know that I will fix whatever is going on. I guess it's a fucked-up way to teach me a lesson, but I am going to fight for you. Even if all our memories together are gone from your memory, even if I get erased, I will find a way to get back to normal. Our normal... now that sounded completely insane," he laughed, and she joined in.
"It absolutely did! And to be honest, I am not sure I understand" she admitted.
"Just try to remember that I love you, (Y/N)" he blurted out.
The silence hung heavily. "Your timing is very bad" she said with a low voice.
"And technically, you love me." He added
"You don't say..." she quickly responded, she wanted out of the awkward situation, and passing him, but she stopped abruptly upon hearing his next words.
"And, icing on the cake: You and I, we are dating! Or at least, we were... it's complicated."
"I can see that." She turned to face him
"I broke up with you."
"May I ask why?" she said in a harsh tone, feeling strangely hurt by the revelation
"Honestly, I'm not even sure anymore..."
"Are you doing this because you want closure?" She questioned her heart tightening, and accelerating. But she could not understand why. Could he be telling the truth? Why couldn’t she remember?
"No! I mean, honestly, this situation is fucking confusing..."
"You're a nice guy, Riven. But communication doesn't seem to be your forte. I'm going to assume this was a drunk conversation," she concluded, then turned and left for good.
As she approached her suite, she noticed a shadow at the door.
"This might be creepy, but I was hoping to see you before turning in," Zane greeted her.
"Zane, hey. You didn't have to. Funny, someone had the same idea."
"Oh. Someone I know?"
"Let's not go down that road... it's too late for heavy conversations."
"Well, let's not talk then," he smiled, opening his arms. "Sometimes all you need is a hug. And you look like you could use one right now."
She contemplated it for a moment before accepting. It felt nice—his strong yet gentle arms, his calm and soothing heartbeat, his regular warm breath on her head. It was pleasant yet oddly unsettling. As if this comforting moment was somehow wrong. For now, she decided to push those feelings aside. She was tired, emotionally stirred by her earlier conversations: her brother's warning and Riven's strange revelations had left her feeling on edge. So, she welcomed this support.
Zane started to rub her back and then her arms slowly and tenderly. She relaxed, wrapping her arms around his waist, savoring the moment. How could this be wrong? His lips brushed against her forehead, and he gave her a gentle kiss. She shifted her body slightly, just enough to look up. Only a few inches separated their faces, their noses almost touching. His eyes admired her features, eventually moving to her lips. With no opposition from her, he leaned in.
Her mind got hazy for a moment, enjoying the softness of his lips on hers, warm and gentle. She opened her eyes and gently pushed on his torso, creating some space between them. They gazed at each other, both smiling.
She broke the silence first. "I'm sorry. We have a rule about boys staying over that prevents me from asking you to stay the night..."
"Well, we could go to my dorm? Nothing frisky, I swear. It's just that... it would be such a shame to walk away right now," he suggested.
She laughed before agreeing. Before leaving together, she slipped into her room to grab some essentials for the next day.

At 8:45am in her Monday Film Directing and Producing class, Musa decides that she has to drop out.  It’s the only way she’ll get through this week. She can’t continue like this.
— or in which musa is a film student trying to finish her final assignment for the semester, and riven is a charismatic actor who finds his way into her film, and her heart.
happy holidays @stormywhitelies! i hope you enjoy this <3

I won't let my demons win (my only rival is within)
Fandom: Fate: The Winx Saga Ships/Characters: Musa/Riven, Sky, Stella, Marco, Male OC Word count: 6106
Tumblr media
“Riv, can I tell you something?” The surprise is apparent on his face and in his aura, but it’s not dismay at her having the audacity to even ask. It’s a ‘you live in a suite with four of your girlfriends but you want to talk to me?’ kind of bewilderment, from someone who’s not used to being a legitimate choice for sensitive subject matters. And he clearly knows that’s what this is, because his voice softens when he finally replies. “Yeah. Of course you can.” Her arms tighten around her knees. “It’s about my mom.” “Are you sure?” He straightens up a little. “You don’t owe me an explanation, about any of that.” “I think I’ve been wanting to tell someone for a while.” That’s not quite true, and if she’s not going to be honest, there’s no point to this. “I’ve been wanting to tell you, for a while.”

PLEAAAAASE Do more Riven x Reader!!
Tumblr media
Pairing: Riven x specialist!reader
There is absolutely nothing she likes about Riven. She hates the way he walks, abhors the sound of his voice and the way he glares at her is just ridiculous after all the years they've known each other.
Somehow, despite the glare, his sneer is what truly irritates her. It's as if she had somehow offended him and his ancestors just by being born and at some point she was bound to break...his nose that is.
"What the actual fuck?!" He groans as he bends over, gripping his nose as blood gushes between his fingers and onto the grass.
"If you'd pay attention more, it wouldn't have happened." She curls her lips into a smirk that instantly brings a frown to his face. "So, it's really your fault."
Straightening his back, Riven's left eye narrows ever so slightly. "I could report you."
Snorting, Y/N folds her arms across her chest. "And admit I broke your nose?" Quirking her right eyebrow, she chuckles wickedly. "Please let me be there when you do." Because if there is one thing specialists don't do, is admit defeat, especially from those supposedly weaker than them. 
Grimacing, he stares at her coldly and for a moment Y/N is sure he’s plotting her demise and where to hide the body once he’s done. 
It’s always been like this between them, but the worst of it began when she started dating Sky. They didn’t last, but Riven’s hatred for her was already out of hand and she could never understand why. 
As kids, Riven was avoiding her, as teens he was annoying her and now he just hated her with no reservations.
“You might as well take a picture”, she winks, “considering you can’t get enough of me.”
“Fuck you”, his eyes fall to the ground before turning away from her. Starting to walk away, he shakes his head. 
Most times, she’d just let it go and wave him off, but Y/N’s heart tends to crave chaos and her mind doesn’t argue - she’s always been the type to follow her heart, her mind has always surrendered to it. 
“I’m curious”; she speeds up to catch up with him, her voice slightly raised so he can’t ignore her. “Since you’re surely going to skip over the truth, what will your excuse be? Hit a tree? Ran into a door?”
Groaning, Riven’s walk turns into a light sprint, but there is no point. Y/N’s the fastest in their class; she can outrun him even if he ran for his life. 
“Boyfriend of your latest hookup caught you together?” She snickers and at once, Riven stopped. Turning on his heel, he didn’t hesitate as he walked toward her much smaller frame and despite the clear intent in his eyes, she didn’t run; she didn’t even flinch as he grabbed her shoulders and all but slammed her into the wall to their left. 
Breathing heavily, Riven’s eyes darken as he bows his head so he can meet her gaze. “What the fuck do you want from me, huh?” 
A light trail of blood forms down his lips and chin, trickling down on her shirt, but she doesn’t care. She finally got a fraction of his attention, a moment to try and push the right buttons to understand his unadulterated hate.
“What makes you think I want something from you”, she quirks an eyebrow but he adds pressure and she can feel the rough material of the wall digging itself into her back. Clenching her jaw, she smirks. “Mhhmm, I like it rough.”
Letting out a heavy breath he’s clearly been holding, a small smile slips past his defenses and she can’t help but gasp.
“So he does smile!”
Shaking his head, he licks his lips only to frown as he feels the metallic taste of blood on his tongue.
“I’m warning you, Y/L/N”, his voice is low, laced with a promise he intends to keep which made it more exciting for Y/N who found pleasure in the cracks he’s showing now. 
“Of what”, she pouts. Raising her hand, she swipes the blood off his chin with her thumb before bringing it to her lips. “Tasty”, her smile widens as his eyes do. 
“You’re insane”, he states.
“Yet you’re pressed against me and not leaving? Interesting.”
Swallowing thickly, the pressure he’s got on her shoulder relents. His eyes flicker to her lips only for his to part. 
“I don’t like repeating myself. What do you want from me?” Riven’s hands slowly trail from her shoulders down to her elbows, waiting for an answer.
“And if my answer was you, what would you say?”
Narrowing his eyes on her, his eyebrows furrow. “That you’re a liar.”
“Why is that?” 
“Because you’re not who you’re acting to be right now and I am not the kind of guy you fall for, so don’t lie to me.”
Snorting, she shakes her head. “Or you have some serious insecurities”, she licks her lips. “Because if you were less pretentious and gave a fuck about anyone but yourself, you’d be exactly the guy I’d fall for.”
Lightly pushing against his chest, Y/N found it easy to escape his hold. She could have done so sooner, but for a split second, she found she doesn’t hate Riven. She hates the guy he tries to be around her and the guy he’s trying to be in front of everyone.
Patting his shoulder, she finds her heart wildly beating as their eyes meet. 
“Stop being an asshole, Riven. It’s not a good look on you.”
“What if that’s who I am”, he raises his brows. “Then what?”
“Then you’ll be alone”, she answers far too quickly. “And I believe you can be so much more”, she trails off coyly, “even if you are the most annoying man I’ve ever had the displeasure of knowing.”
“You’d still fuck me”, he chuckles and she rolls her eyes.
“You talk about fucking a little too much for a guy that supposedly hates me”, she remarks and he smirks.
“I don’t have to like you to think you’re hot.”
“It’s a good thing I do have to like you to ever consider you as anything but a tool.”
Snorting, he nods. “Oh, I’ve got a tool for you.”
Grimacing, she shivers. “That’s a nasty image to put in my mind so close to bed time. I’ll have nightmares.”
“As long as I’m the star of them, I’m sure you won’t mind.”
“Ugh”, she flips him off. “Get that nose fixed before your reputation takes a worse hit than your ego.”
“Sweet dreams”, he shouts, snickering right after.
And despite his initial anger about his broken nose, Riven found himself a purpose thanks to the injury; the purpose that would throw Y/N off that high horse he always wanted to tear her down from. 
Riven will seduce Y/N, make her fall madly in love with him and once he has her eating out of the palm of his hand, he’ll reveal his ruse and she will be destroyed. That will teach her to leave him alone. For good.
If only he knew his plan would backfire and he would find his heart in the ashes of his own heartbreak, reminding him exactly why he spent so much time being an asshole around Y/N - for he had always felt deeply for her and those feelings were buried for years. His actions will shake those feelings loose and once they’re out, there is nothing in this world Riven will be able to do to extinguish the fire he’ll be burning with - for her, for them, for the mere possibility of a happy end.

through the eyes of a soldier
Musa's experience this term leaves much to be desired, what with her break up and the scrapers stealing her powers. On the other hand, with unmatched fighting skills, a provocative smirk, and guaranteed shags from a majority of Alfea's population, Riven's year couldn't be going any better.
Unfortunately for all three of them, Craig's about to find out not everything with these two is as it seems.
-- aka, a Rivusa fic from the perspective of that one specialist that told them to "get a room" in s2 (you can blame @sotangledupinit for this nonsense)

Cold touch (IceFairy!Reader x Riven)
Requested by: @kxhrixhr,  Forever tag: @missmelodramatic, @theletterhart, @alex–awesome–22, @elllie-does-the-posts, @floatlosers, @merlieve, @queen-of-books, @glimmering-darling-dolly, @denkisclown, @automaticbakeryfreakshoe, @meyocoko, @bubblybrianna, @october-leaves​
Summary: Reader is an Ice fairy, when Bloom & her have a go against each other, leaves an incident for Riven to lose control and be honest about his hidden feelings. (Warnings! cursing)
Tumblr media
“Look at this cute thing.” – exclaimed Terra, stroking the petals of the flower she was holding. She held the potted flower out to you, letting you get a closer look at it. – “Beautiful.” – answered you, leaning in closer. – “Did… did you make this one?” – you slowly rose, looking up to her. Terra nodded happily. Terra admired her own flower again, feeling extremely proud, as she should be. – “I think it’s my favorite flower.” – said you, making Terra laugh. – “Don’t be silly Y/n, I know your favorite flower is a blue flax. You chuckled with your hand before your mouth. – “Perhaps but a girl can have more then one favorite flower.” – you held your hands out to her. 
Terra placed the pot in your hands so you could observe it more closely. – “What a weed!” – heard you from behind you. You quirked your eyebrow up, Terra taking the potted flower back from you. One of the specialists came closer, grinning. – “Don’t listen to him Terra.” – advised you, turning Terra away from the guy. He kept bugging you, lowering himself a bit in a ridiculing gesture. – “You made that ugly weed?” – laughed he out, pointing at the flower.
You were normally very kind and sweet but jerks like that made your blood turn to ice. – “I didn’t seem to ask for your opinion.” – replied you, getting a pull on your sleeve from Terra. The guy scoffed when two more specialists approached, one of them Riven. He kept laughing, throwing his arm over his friend that arrived. – “Hideous right!” – pointed he out. – “A weed you’d piss on.” – Terra’s eyes turned glossy, trying her very best to hold back her tears. Bringing your hand into a fist, stepped you up to them. – “Say that again! I dare you!” – spitted you out, a cold breeze smoking up from your fist. Riven chuckled amusingly as you turned sharply towards him. – “Don’t even start!” – called you out. 
Riven threw his hands up with a smug expression. – “So cold.” – responded he, pretending to be struck in the heart. Rolling your eyes, grabbed you Terra away from them. – “Don’t listen to them Terra! They wouldn’t even distinguish a troll from looking in the mirror.” – You mocked loud enough for them to hear. Riven chuckled amusingly at your comment as the other two were trying to figure out if you just insulted them or not. You entangled your arm with hers, rubbing her arm soothingly. Terra smiled at you, feeling the soft cold on her arm, but she was so used to it, it barely bothered her.
In the afternoon were you at the training grounds. You sat down with Bloom, listening to him. – “Well obvious fire would give more damage.” – scoffed Bloom with a cheeky smile. You gaped at her, stunned to speak. – “I beg your pardon.” – said you. – “Fire always wins from ice.” – pointed she out, swaying her ponytail over her shoulder. – “Says who?” – asked you loudly. – “Uhm… chemistry?” – answered Bloom as if you were truly dumb. Squinting your eyes at her, dared you her to say that again. – “Are you saying I am weak?” – the coldness crept into your voice, leaving a cold haze brushing over your knuckles. – “No, that’s not what I said.” – chuckled she out, waving her hands across. 
“But you said it like that.” – reminded you, glaring at her. Sky pinched his nose-bridge gently. – “How about a demonstration? Would that please you ladies?” – suggested he, laying the offer out. Bloom turned to look at you. You stared right back at her. Both of you got up, walking over to the platform. – “Just… just be careful both of you!” – called Sky out. Bloom shook her hands loose, letting catch on fire. You simply stretched your fingers gracefully as the tips turned icy blue. A cold fog hovering around your hands. Sky stood near the platform on a remote distance.
Bloom shot a firebolt in your direction as you deflected it with your icy hands. There was no denying that you felt the heat that stung a bit. You blasted a stream of coldness towards her. Bloom shot her hand out, greeting your blast in the center with her fire one. Where fire and ice clashed together emerged a boll. Ice shards splintered out of the ball along with snippets of fire glistering’s. Sky took a few steps back, mesmerized by the effect it had. Ice clashing into fire. You set more force on your hand, letting colder out. Bloom did the same, not backing out. Both Bloom and your hand were trembling as the intensity slowly pushed you backwards. 
Calling it out, fought you with everything you had inside of you. Bloom her cheeks were trembling. She was astonished by the effect fire and ice had together. She thought it would be an easy fight. When both of you were near the edge, let you go. A wave of energy bursting between the two of you. You leaped forwards, catching your breath. Bloom had to do the same, clutching her chest. Sky slowly clapped. – “I kind of want to do that again.” – preached Bloom excitedly. – “Not me.” – breathed you out. Inhaling sharply, found you a bit of your strength back.
Riven had widened his eyes at the sudden burst of power he saw. Fire and ice clashing. He saw Bloom and you on the platform, catching your breath. That must have forced a lot of energy of the both of you. He slowly made his way over. – “I’m done.” – said you, making your way over to Sky. – “But Y/n wait!” – called Bloom out. You shook your head. Bloom shot her hand out to you; unaware it was still on fire. You screamed it out when a fire blast hit you right against the arm. It blasted you off your feet, rolling over the platform to a sudden stop. – “Y/n!” – shouted Riven out, hurrying over. Bloom stared in shock at her own hands. – “I…I…I didn’t mean to…” – said she, looking at Sky. Riven jumped up to the platform as you were pulling yourself up.
“Y/n!” – called he out again, running up to you. You weakly got onto your feet as he was ready to catch you if you would fall. Sky got onto the platform, going over to Bloom. – “Who’s idiotic idea was this?” – spitted he out, glaring at both of them. You called it softly out in pain, feeling your arm burning. You quickly rolled your sleeve up, seeing red marks appear on your arm. They burnt, making you squeal silently in pain. Riven widened his eyes at your marks. Sky and Bloom stared in shock at you. Riven was about to grab your wrist, wanting to pull it towards him when you collapsed from the pain. He quickly caught you before your body could smack the ground. At the same time wanted Sky to run over, wanting to check it up closely.
“Well don’t just fucking stand there! Help me!” – yelled he out. Sky rushed to his aid, helping him carry you inside. Bloom ran in a different direction to get Dowling or Silva anyone that could help her. – “Which one of you fucking twats came up with the idea!” – bit Riven, glaring at Sky whilst holding you in his arms. Sky clenched his jaw, opening the door for Riven to walk in. – “Who!” – demanded he to know, roaring loudly. – “I did!” – called Sky agitated back, spinning sharply to him. Riven had to stop abruptly. – “Well you’re a fucking genius!” – mocked he with every intention to hurt him. Sky bit the guilt away. 
In the hallway encountered they Silva and Dowling. Silva took you over from Riven. – “Wait… I can… Silva!” – called he out, trying to fight it. Silva glared at him, stealing you away from him. Dowling touched your forehead brief. With a calm but worried look rushed she with Silva towards your room. Riven went in pursuit wanting to be around. On their heel, wanted he to be there. He wanted to be by your side. Farah held her finger stern up to him, shutting the door in front of him. – “Fuck!” – grunted Riven out, kicking his foot against the door. He then slammed his fists against the hardwood, furious that he was left out. – “Riven…” – said Sky, touching his shoulder. – “Don’t fucking touch me!” – shouted he, moving his arm out of the way.
Shaking his head furiously, took he, his leave. He made his way onto the green fields, sitting furiously down. Nibbling on his lip, wondered he how this ever could’ve happened. Were they stupid or something? Fire and Ice never mixed. Riven pulled his knees closer to his chest, holding his arms around them. He scoffed once, batting his eyes up to the sky. It left him speechless to know Sky was such an idiot on that matter. Why would he even suggest such a thing. Then Riven widened his eyes. Why was he so bugged about it? 
Sure, you were what Riven could call ‘a friend’, but nothing more. Why… why did he overreacted so. Scratching his head tried he to figure it out. From afar saw he Stella and Musa. He rolled his eyes at them. Then came Beatrix in sight, narrowing his eyes at her. Sure she was cool, but to his surprise felt he nothing special for her. There was just something about you that seemed to increase his craving. The teasing and ridiculous comments having perhaps a deeper meaning. Riven laughed at himself for being so oblivious and so simple. Getting up wanted he to check up on you.
He encountered Sky in front of your door. He was about to bush past him when a vast hand against his chest stopped him. – “You can’t go in yet.” – stated Sky, crossing his arms. Riven tilted his head a bit to the side with a wicked grin. – “Dowling is helping her.” – Riven licked his lips brief, looking away. – “If it wasn’t for you, she wouldn’t be needing help right now!” – Riven shoved Sky against the door, making him cradle his arms against his chest. – “I know I shouldn’t have let them have a go at it.” – answered Sky full of guilt. – “She wanted to stop!” – Riven got up in his face, staring coldly at him.
“You should’ve contained your girlfriend better.” – Sky clenched his jaw, puffing up his chest. He was about to say something back when the door opened. Sky jumped aside, making some room. Farah was the one opening the door, showing Riven a glimpse of your room. He got on his toes, looking into your room. Without thinking much off it, pushed he Dowling aside at the sight of you. He shut the door behind him, giving a clear warning no one was allowed to enter. Farah stared confused at Sky. – “How… how is she?” – asked Sky, following her. – “She will be alright.”
Riven walked up to your bed, inhaling sharply. He saw you laying peacefully down. You were drenched in sweat. Your hair, cloths, everything. Riven came sitting on the bed with you, moving some sticky hair aside. Biting his lip nervously, looked he down at your arm. He was afraid to touch it, but relieved to see the marks were not so visible anymore. – “What are you doing to me Y/n.” – whispered he out, admiring you. He turned his gaze to your room, observing it. What kind of books you had, posters, even plants. He saw a blue flax flower on your desk, thinking it was so you. Chuckling at himself found he himself foolish for falling so hard. Riven staid by your side till you woke up. He needed reassurance that you were alright.
A couple days after the incident were you making your way across the hallway. Holding a few of your textbooks in your hand. Riven was leaning against a pillar. He removed himself from it once at the sight of you. – “Y/n!” – called he out. You made your way over with a cheeky smile. – “How you feeling?” – asked he. – “Better.” – replied you, showing him your arm. He took a hold of your wrist, taken back by the cold feeling for a second. It never occurred to him that you had a cold touch. You looked shyly away, thinking he might find it too cold. Riven pulled your arm more up, trailing with his right hand’s fingers upwards. 
It tickled, sending a rush up your spine. He leaned in with a smirk on his face. – “I like the cold.” – said he with a smug face. You got flustered, looking blushingly away. He noticed it, gleaming with amusement at how easily you got bashful around him. – “I…I…I have to go.” – said you, pulling your arm out of his gentle grip. Biting your lip nervously, hurried you away in a blushing state. Riven smiled, finding it so cute that he could get to you so easily. – “Y/n wait up!” – called he out, hurrying after you. He offered to carry your books, letting his shoulder bump playfully against yours. You looked up to him, admiring him. Who knew Riven could be such a gentleman.
Not long after became Riven and you an item. Perhaps a weird pairing to others, but to you it felt right. It wasn’t the first time a bad boy fell in love with a sweetheart.

"Call it what you want"-Rivusa social media au(fake dating trope) - Chapter 21-
I put a link for the petition for the show in the chapter 13, please go sign it.

hello, I hope everyone is doing good. Here it is the new chapter! I'm sorry if I hadn't post earlier but life has been really hard these times. Anyways, stay safe,If you want to talk or share thoughts, my dms and asks box are always open! Hope you like this chapter as much as I liked writing it. Enjoy<3
sorry if there is any grammar error, english is not my first language.
Real life pov:
Riven waited all morning for Musa to show up for practice. He waited patiently for her but she never came. Sitting against a tree, he wonders why she is not there. He asks himself questions; wondering why she didn't come, what could have prevented her from coming, when from the beginning, she always came. For her, it is so important to know how to defend herself. And that's where it finally tilts in his brain. It's the anniversary of Musa's mother's death. Riven gets up with some guilt. He feels guilty, how could he forget? Does she want to see him on this day so sad for her? Should he leave her alone today? He does not know what to do.
That's how he seems to feel, but deep down, Riven knows very well what he has to do for Musa today.
That's why fifteen minutes later, he finds himself on the landing of the girls' room with a bag full of food. He knocks on the door and Stella, still in her pajamas, opens. The blonde looks down at the bags in Riven's hands with fake disdain and opens the door wide for him to enter.
The girls are all sitting on the big red sofa in the small living room. Just one person is not present. Musa.
Riven doesn't even have time to say anything when Aïsha gets up and says to him: "No."
"Huh? Why no?" Riven asks, fidgeting uncomfortably.
"It's not the day, leave her alone." Add the water fairy.
Putting her hands on her own waist, Stella comes to position herself next to him to take his defense but Aisha still refuses. She doesn't want Musa to go through more than she is already going through. Yet Riven does not understand, he does not want his girlfriend to have a more difficult time, he wants to relieve her of her pain.
After a long debate between Aisha and Riven, the boy is ready to leave, giving up but unexpectedly, clearly to everyone's surprise, Terra raises her voice:
"Let him see her Aïsha."
"What?" said the principal concerned, turning to Terra. "Are you defending him?"
"I'm not defending anyone, I'm just saying that if he wants to see her, we are no one to stop him. Besides, it will surely do Musa good to see him."
Terra is now standing between Riven and Aisha, "What do you mean by that?"
"I mean he helped her a lot with her powers, he helped her by  teaching her how to fight, he helped her with getting over the breakup with my brother, he helped her to be happy and he can surely help her now."
Everyone in the room is speechless. Nobody expected to see Terra take the defense of Riven. And yet.
Aïsha, after a long moment of reflection, nods her head towards the boy to give him her agreement. Riven heads to Musa's room after giving Terra a grateful look.
Riven knocks softly on Musa's bedroom door but doesn't hear an answer. He goes in anyway and silently closes the door behind him. His eyes take time to adjust to the darkness of the room and that's when he sees her. Musa is lying in bed, her knees pulled up to her chest and covered by the blankets. She has her eyes closed but does not sleep. Riven has already slept with Musa enough times to know what she looks like when she's asleep. Calm, relaxed facial features, and there it is not. He knows she's awake but she doesn't move an inch. As if he's not there.
"Hi, I just came to drop you off some food. I'll put it on your desk", The specialist said as he put the bag of food on Musa's messy desk, "If you need to talk I'm here, but don't feel obligated to do anything. We don't even have to talk if you prefer, we can just stay together. But if you really need to be in your own company, no worries. We can see each other another day, just know that you are not alone."
Still getting no reaction from Musa, Riven turns to leave when a voice interrupts him.
"Stay."
Musa's voice is weak, damaged and tear filled and when he turns around he sees her holding the covers for him to lie down with her. He hurries to take off his shoes to go near the brunette whose eyes are red from crying. She doesn't come to snuggle up against him, she stays curled up on herself but Riven knows very well that it's a big step for her to accept his presence today. So he watches her with as much love as he can while she closes her eyes, trying to fall asleep.
Musa has been sleeping peacefully for several hours. Riven doesn't sleep. He prefers to keep an eye on her in case something happens. It was while after he was reading on his phone that he felt something mooving next to him. When he turns his head away from his screen, he looks down to see Musa squealing from the back of her throat, scratching her arm. He grabs her hand to stop her but that causes Musa to cling around Riven's waist. He lets her do. He even comes to put an arm around her, bringing her even closer to him. The fairy's sobs calm down little by little as Riven repeats her soft "It's going to be fine, I'm here and you're safe.", in her ear. Musa's sleep eases but the fairy doesn't loosen her grip around her boyfriend's waist. She clings to him as if he were her buoy during a drowning. And he lets her, because he would do anything to keep Musa's head above water.
A few minutes later, Riven feels Musa move even more. She is waking up. He remains motionless, while she sits up to come and hide her head in the crook of his shoulder and lengthens like that. He puts his arm gently around her. It is in this comfortable silence that he awaits. Sobs, cries and tears are wetting his t-shirt. He lets her do it, she needs it.
"I miss her so much."
He sighs with compassion, cradling her against him with infinite kindness, not daring to say anything.
"I wonder if she's proud of me, if she thinks I'm a good person..."
Riven frowns as Musa tries to stifle her sobs in her boyfriend's t-shirt.
"Muse look at me."
The fairy looks up at him. Her cheeks are dripping with tears, her nose is red, she is biting her bottom lip which is now bleeding and her normally brown eyes are now purple.
"You are the most magnificent star in this entire universe. Even Uranus and Saturn are embarrassed by how much more sparkling you are than them. I didn't knew your mother, but I'm sure your light reaches her where she is and she's proud of you."
After a few seconds of deep silence, she wraps her arms around him: "Thank you... Can I ask you a favor?"
"Of course."
"Would you like to listen to her favorite music with me?"
"All that you want."
