For the oneshot Rivusa ‘oh you’re cold? here, take my jacket’ + FLIRT

Riven returned to the group, stepping over fallen branches and tall grass. Aisha had pointed to some flower that she thought was beautiful – a rather Flora-like thing to say in his opinion, but whatever – and, since he was the only one who’d brought a camera, he had been asked to get a shot of it. Riven wasn’t happy about it, but he’d done it. When he got to the group, the only person standing there was Musa. Brandon and Aisha – the other two who’d come on the hike with them – were nowhere to be seen.

“Where the fuck did they go?” he asked her. Musa turned to him, curiosity and confusion etching her features. He motioned to the space where the Androsi princess and Eraklyan squire had stood not two minutes earlier.

“Not sure... Maybe they’re ahead of us?”

“How did you lose people you were standing next to?” he asked, maybe a bit more harshly than he should have. “Sorry, I just...”

“No, I was distracted. The birds here sound so different. I... kind of wandered off to listen to them more closely.”

Musa’s eyes trailed off in the direction she’d gone off in as she bit her lip awkwardly. Fuck, did she have to be so cute? It was briefly debated whether they should head back down to get the others and search for Brandon and Aisha, but ultimately, they decided to head to the summit. Codatorta would kill him if he knew that Riven had forsaken his training to spend the afternoon with a girl but Riven didn’t care. This was Musa.

“I’m gonna kill Brandon when we catch up to them” he grumbled as Musa started up the mountain. And he did mean it – sort of. This hike had been his idea – he was the one who said Hey guys, let’s take a break from our all-expenses paid beach vacation to go climb a mountain. Riven had only agreed because there was only so much time he could spend in the water and just lying on the beach all day – which was Stella’s counter-suggestion – sounded incredibly dull.

Conversation with Musa was... awkward. Because of him. She was as clever and funny as always, but he seemed to find that he became even more socially awkward around her. Fuck, he was only a step or two away from being Timmy’s fumbling mess. It didn’t help that she kept asking him questions about any and everything – school, his bike, his favourite book, his thoughts on this and that, what he’d like to do after he graduated, and every little thing she seemed to think of. She laughed at jokes he was pretty sure no one but him thought were funny. What was happening?

“So, you fix most of your classes bikes?”

“Yeah. Turns out most rich people hate to get their hands dirty – who knew” he snarked.

Musa rolled her eyes at him as she laughed. “That’s really cool.”

How giddy he felt at her thinking anything about him was cool was fucking embarrassing. Riven shoved his hands into his pockets and stalked ahead of her as they came to a bend in the trail. He made sure she was close by, but walked ahead of her, stopping a few meters short of a giant rock. Musa came up beside him and swore under her breath.

The rock was as tall as Riven and easily ten times as wide. He tried to circle around it, but the rock took up the entire path; there was no way around except to climb it. He could pull himself up and lower himself back down safely, but he’d have to give Musa a boost and help her down since she couldn’t transform. All his training told him that this would be when they should turn around – if one of them got hurt climbing up or down this stupid thing, they’d have to stay alone while the other went to get help – but the idea of spending a few more hours with Musa was too enticing. Codatorta didn’t have to know.

Riven squatted down and laced his fingers together, positioning himself to boost Musa up. She raised her brow at him, but ultimately shrugged and stepped onto his hand. He lifted her until she could grab the edge of the rock and pull herself. Then he jumped to catch the ledge and pulled himself over.

When he reached the top, Musa was sitting on the edge with her legs crossed under her. She watched him stand and dust himself off with a smile. He would think she was scrutinizing him if not for the look on her face that he recognized as a friendly one.

“I didn’t know you were so strong” she commented as he helped her to her feet.

Riven froze. He was a specialist – a student at one of the most elite military schools in the dimension, that also happened to be very strict on diet and exercise regiments; obviously he was strong. Not to mention Musa was a bit more than half his size and easily half his weight. “Well, you’re not exactly heavy” he replied blankly before continuing on the path.

They reached the summit less than twenty minutes later. He had to admit it was a beautiful view. Green treetops for as far as the eye could see. On the right, the sandy white beaches of the resort realm marked the border between the green of the forests and the crystal blue of the ocean, now tinted with oranges and reds from the setting sun.

Musa stepped into his line of sight and suddenly the trees were greener, the sky was vibrant shades of pink and orange and gold, the breeze felt warmer on his face, and he felt like such a loser for letting her have that effect on him. He let himself watch her as she took a seat on the ground. She looked back at him with a bright smile and patted the ground beside her. He took the seat and found himself increasingly aware of how close she was as their knees brushed and she leaned towards him to grab some of the snacks he’d packed. They ate in silence until he spoke.

“I wonder where the fuck Brandon and Aisha went. I swear if they somehow ended up going off the trail, I actually will murder him” he said, wanting to have something – anything – else to think about. He had a gorgeous view in front of him, but all he could seem to focus on was her and the way she pushed the hair that was blowing in her face away and the way she smiled at the scenery. “He should know better. Just because he passed a wilderne-”

“I’m pretty sure they headed back to camp.”

Riven whipped his head towards Musa, who seemed completely unbothered by the idea that they’d been abandoned by their friends. “What?”

“Yeah, I saw them run downhill when we lost them.”

“Why would they?”

Musa froze. She blinked away her confusion and seemed to consider her words. Even then, they came out awkward and stilted. “Because... well... we... you know.”

Riven tensed. He could feel the heat climbing up his neck, flushing his cheeks. This was the first time either of them had mentioned whatever it was they had going on. He knew he was basically – well, not basically, probably actually – in love with her. The fact that he managed to have coherent thoughts around her was a miracle because she made him feel like his brain was up in the clouds. As much as Brandon insisted Musa felt the same – conversations that were had against Riven’s will – he just couldn’t seem to believe it. She was... amazing and he was just Riven; constantly fighting for his place, making up for his faults, fucking up. She deserved better.

Musa shivered and wrapped her arms around her torso, rubbing her biceps to warm herself. Riven reached into his backpack and pulled out the Red Fountain sweatshirt he’d haphazardly thrown in just in case. He held it out to her, but she refused.

“Musa, you’re cold. Take the sweater.”

At his insistence, she took the sweater and pulled it over her head. The sweater was already a bit big on him, so Musa completely drowned in it. Seeing the way she smiled down at the sweater, a faint red painting her cheeks, lit a spark of hope in him – an echoed thought that maybe Brandon was on to something.

“You saw them go down the trail? You’re certain?”

“Completely, yeah” she confirmed.

Riven took a breath. He knew what he wanted to ask, but it left him horrifyingly vulnerable. Suggesting they go find the two morons who had deserted them would’ve been a lot easier, but Codatorta always said specialists didn’t take the cowards way. “So why did you suggest we go up?”

“To spend time with you” she answered immediately. Her eyes went wide. It was the most forward either of them had ever been; it took Riven by surprise even if it was along what he was hoping for as an answer. “And I mean, that view” she added awkwardly, motioning to the expanse of beauty.

“It’s great, yeah” Riven agreed, realising with sudden horror that he would need to answer her admission. He leaned back on his hands, trying to figure out how exactly to say I’m glad you did without sounding like a love-struck loser. “This is great... You know, I used to sleep under the stars all the time as a kid. I stopped around the time I was 12, but... I kinda miss it sometimes.”

Riven didn’t add that it was because he was homeless or that it stopped when he was 12 because that was when Saladin took him in and enrolled him in military school, housing him during the summer and holidays. Those details weren’t important. Maybe one day he would tell her, but today was not that day. He didn’t even know why he’d said it. Musa was looking at him expectantly, waiting for him to say something else and it had just tumbled out. He did actually miss it sometimes; he liked looking at the night sky.

“We can probably camp out here tonight. We’ve got enough food and water” Musa suggested.

It sounded enticing, he wasn’t going to lie. Spending the night under the stars with her sounded like a dream; having her be the first thing he sees instead of the first thing he thinks of sounded even better. The idea of sleeping under the stars in general sounded nice too. Sleeping on this damn rock, though... “And what are we gonna sleep on?”

Musa paused. She looked around them, the realization that they'd both wake in pain and then need to trek all the way back down evident on her face. “There’s grass over there. You can use your sweater as a pillow, and I can use...” she paused again, the formerly faint pink on her cheek turning a full-blown red. “- you.”

“As...” He paused to find the word he wanted. Even if there was something between them, he didn’t know how she would react to him using the word heavenly to describe spending a night cuddled up to her. “- great as that sounds, we really should get back to camp. We have to make sure Aisha and Brandon made it back safely.”

Musa’s smile fell. He understood the disappointment; he wanted to stay even if it meant waking with a neck and back so sore it would kill him to walk back to camp. He could only risk having Codatorta kill him for so much, though. It was enough that he'd deserted his squad mate when he lost him to finish a hike with a girl, but to spend the night without protection (of the weapon kind, he reminded himself) while he still didn't have visual confirmation Brandon and Aisha were okay... Codatorta would behead him and hang his head at the entrance to his classroom as a reminder.

Reluctantly, she started to pack up their bags, mumbling that they should be heading back down since the sun was setting. Riven knew she was right, but he still hated it. A few more minutes - hours - without Musa being pulled away by her friends would've been nice. He slowly got up, insisting that she keep the sweater when she started to pull it off. She smiled, but it didn't reach her eyes, even he could see that.

"I was thinking of taking a walk along the water tomorrow" he lied. The thought hadn’t even crossed his mind until just that second.

“That sounds nice” she answered sweetly, but completely void of any enthusiasm.

He took a nervous breath. “Maybe... you want to come with me?”

Her entire face lit up at the suggestion. Riven felt like his heart could explode she was so fucking cute. As terrifying as the feeling was, he realised that he liked it. He liked how warm it made him feel, and he thought that maybe (potentially, probably definitely) falling in love with her wouldn't be so bad.

Haunted voices // part 2 (EmpathFairy!Reader x Riven)

Requested by: @canthebest1, Forever tag: @missmelodramatic, @theletterhart, @alex–awesome–22, @elllie-does-the-posts, @floatlosers, @merlieve, @queen-of-books, @glimmering-darling-dolly, @denkisclown, @wildieflower, @meyocoko, @bubblybrianna, @october-leaves, @idkwhatmyusernam, @subjecta13-thefangirl

Read part 1!

Summary: Reader has another episode where her powers are out of control. When Riven is not around steps another guy forward. Riven turns green with jealousy when he witnesses someone else trying to help you, it is after all his task.

“Sorry I’ve woken you up.” – you said, turning your head to Riven. So did Riven, his arm under his head. – “It’s fine!” – he responded waving his hand up. You fully turned over to him, laying your arm under your neck. – “I truly am. I…I shouldn’t wake you up for every small convenience.” – you exhaled soft, looking up to the night sky. The sky dotted with a few stars. – “Hey!” – Riven rolled over to you, laying his thumb on your chin. – “Your my best friend! You need me? I’ll be there.” – he let his thumb swipe to your jaw, stroking you. You curled up a smile, gazing into his eyes. – “Still…” – you softly said, removing his fingers from against your cheek.

You lowered his hand, still holding onto it. – “Y/n! No matter what I’m here for you. I told you we’d figure this out together!” – Riven interrupted before you could feel sorrier for yourself. – “Do you still hear them?” – he wanted to know. You shook your head as best as you could. Riven shut his eyes out of relief for a moment. – “Only me…” – you whispered. Riven entangled his fingers better with yours, bringing your hand up. – “Good.” – he breathed out, staring at you. You smiled gently at him, feeling so safe around him. Riven and you kept gazing at each other, caught in the moment. The stars above weren’t nearly as important as one another.

Riven felt words come up, tasting them on his tongue. He slightly opened his mouth, readying himself to express them. He inhaled long, feeling his chest enlarge. You rolled over to your back, feeling the grass underneath you stick on your skin. Riven exhaled, swallowing his words back in. He rolled onto his back as well, tugging his arm behind his head. If only he had spoken sooner, perhaps he could’ve changed things. There was nothing wrong with being best friends, but lately he felt wanting something more. He wanted you closer than ever. Just you and him. He brought your entangled hand to his stomach, letting it rest there. For now this was good enough. He still had you.

Riven jerked his upper body up, hearing a loud whistle. Someone was blowing angry on the whistle. You shot up as well, staring with grand eyes at Riven. – “We have to go!” – he ordered, urging you to get up. You got up with the help of Riven. He took your elbow, running off with you. – “I hope you aren’t scared of detention!” – Riven chuckled out. You groaned loud at how in the heat he still found time to joke around. Riven pushed you inside the building. – “If they start checking dorms we are screwed!” – Riven called out. You nodded following him into the cafeteria. It was dark and silent. Riven and you stopped for a second to decide the best way back to the dorms.

You went left when Riven went right. He sighed loud, running after you. He grabbed you by the elbow, pulling you in the other way. You gasped loud, hearing voices, someone clearly in search for the students out of bed. Riven dragged you around, making the decisions for you. Riven came to a sudden stop, seeing the light of a flashlight reflecting around the corner. He took your hand, going the other way with you. The voices got louder as Riven took a hard risk. He pressed you against one of the pillars. He pressed himself close to you, letting you know to stay quiet. You nodded.

Riven let his hands rest on your waist, his eyes going around while trying to listen. You could only stare at him. Stare at your best friend. Riven’ eyes fell on you, letting them rest there. He kept staring at you, quirking a tiny smile up. The way he stared at you let butterflies bounce around in your stomach. You felt it so strong. The warmness inside of you. You couldn’t stop it but the emotion you absorbed from Riven started to vibrate out of your body. Warm pulses of soft purple vibrating off you. Riven moved his hands off your waist, taking a step back to understand what was happening. He clearly felt the pulses as well. A purple aura surrounding you. – “What are you doing?” – he whispered, hoping they wouldn’t be found.

“I don’t know.” – you whispered back with a soft smile. – “I just feel so loved.” – you added drunk on the emotion. – “Well snap out of it Y/n before they find us!” – Riven shout-whispered, grabbing you by both shoulders. He shook you gently back and forth, giving you a reality check. You blinked rapidly, the purple aura retreating back inside you. – “I’ve never done that… cool.” – you said with a goofy smile. Riven peeked around the pillar, seeing that the coast was clear. – “Good for you Y/n.” – he replied, taking your hand again.

Riven ran up the stairs with you to where all the dorms were. He dropped you off at your dorm. – “See you in the morning.” – he whispered out, pushing you inside. You waved him goodbye as he shut the door. Riven shook his head with a shudder unsure what had happened there. He rubbed his hand against his heart. When you were shining, he definitely felt his emotions in overdrive. Like an overdose from what he was feeling. He laid himself down in his bed with a weary sigh. At this point he was just glad you weren’t caught.

The next day was Riven with Sky at the training grounds. Two specialists were fighting on the platform. Sky and Riven leaning against it, supervising them. – “How’s Y/n?” – Sky asked. – “I heard she had it rough after her first time using her powers.” – Riven nodded, looking briefly away from the specialists. – “She couldn’t be any better.” – Riven answered with a cocky smile. – “Also she is mine to worry about!” – Riven held his finger up, narrowing his eyes to an intense stare. Sky swallowed nervously. – “I was just asking.” – Sky informed, knowing when to back off.

Riven chuckled loud. – “I know. I was just reminding you off it.” – Riven slapped Sky against his back with a sly smile. – “Got it!” – Sky puffed out, feeling the air in his lungs sucked out. – “Hey! work on your feet!” – Riven shouted at the specialist. He nodded keeping an extra eye out on his pose. They practiced again, Sky pointing out their wrongs. After practice shared Riven and Sky a handshake with the specialists. – “You coming to the party?” – one of them asked. Riven laughed loud. – “Have I ever turned down a party?” – He said in a rhetorical way. – “No.” – answered the specialist, making Riven roll with his eyes. Riven took his leave with Sky, going back to their dorm.

The party was buzzing loud when arrived. You texted Riven that you were here. Tugging your phone away, you looked curious around. Through the crowd you saw Musa sitting with her headphones on a table with Sam by her. She was laughing loud at something. Terra was wandering around, holding three drinks in her hands. Probably to give to her friends. Someone bumped against your shoulder, making you move around. You started going around the party in search for Riven. You smiled when Bloom cheered loud at beer pong. Sky throwing his hands up in a loss.

Bloom pointed at him when he picked up the cup to drink. You moved on, seeing that Terra had found her friends. She stood with Aisha and Stella. You pulled your nose up at Beatrix sharing an intense smoke with someone in the corner. Pulling out your phone, you checked if Riven had texted you already. You sighed soft when nothing had popped up. Perhaps anyone knew where he was. – “Excuse me.” – you said, tapping a guy on his shoulder. The guy turned around, looking annoyed at you. – “Do you maybe know…” – you started getting cut off by him. – “Beat it!” – he called out over the loud music.

You gulped distancing yourself from him. – “Okay…” – you mumbled to yourself, rubbing your palms together. With a heavy sigh squirmed you through the crowd. – “Riven?” – you just started to call out loud. – “Riven?” – some people that heard you shook their head, not knowing. You sighed again standing lost while around you people danced. The lights flickering above your head for a strobing effect. Looking down saw you that the floor was covered in glitter. The music was so loud it numbed your hearing. Everything felt like underwater. The dancers around you seemed to be closing in on you.

Circling around you like vultures. You furrowed your brows, feeling a strong emotion stir inside of you. It was vibrant and active. Like a tornado out of control. You looked around, seeing a couple argue in the back. You could feel it. Their emotion so strong it angered you. You felt this deep grudge inside of you, yet the feeling wasn’t yours. – “Stop.” – you whispered out, pressing your hands against your ears. Your eyes shining a bright purple. You inhaled sharply when another strong emotion swept in. laughter. You could hear it echoing in the back of your mind. It was repulsing when the joy mixed with the anger. You felt two strong conflicted emotions deep inside of you. I should’ve never trusted him again. You heard the voice loud and clear in your mind. I’m so fucking stupid for still believing this ass! You inhaled sharply as the voice blurred over into another one.

Should I jump on the pool table and take my shirt off? Is it just me or does this drink taste funny? God he is so attractive. I am so going to be hungover tomorrow morning. the thoughts kept barging into your mind uninvited. You couldn’t take it anymore. The voices, the emotions. It was too much. – “Stop it! Stop it… stop it!” – you kept saying, louder and louder. You needed Riven and you needed him now. You were about to lose it again. This time you had no idea what would happed if you reached your breaking point. – “Shut up. Just shut up!” – you started slapping yourself against your head, wanting the voices to be over with.

Close to crying sunk you down, crouching. – “Please… please… please…” – you begged gently rocking back and forth. No one around you seemed to notice or care. All too occupied in their own little world. – “Turn it off. Turn it off. Turn it off.” – you whimpered, tears streaming down your face. – “Hey Y/n you, okay?” – You didn’t hear it at first, too overwhelmed by your powers. Dane looked over his shoulder to see if anyone was going to interfere. – “Hey Y/n, you alright?” – Dane knelt down to your height, touching you on the knee. You gasped loud, staring with your sparkling purple eyes at him. – “Wow! Relax it’s just me.” – Dane said, moving his hand up.

“Make it stop. I want it to stop.” – you cried out, sobbing loud. – “Stop what? Y/n what is going on?” – Dane got a bit worried. – “The voices, the emotions. Everything!” – you called out, close to your breaking point. – “Alright, okay. I’ll make it stop!” – Dane looked thoughtful around for a solution. He had no idea what was going on, but he had seen Musa wear headphones, so he figured maybe you just needed the same.

“Here take these!” – Dane pulled out his earplugs from his pocket. You shivered, looking frightened and fragile at him. Dane removed your hands from against your ear. He put his earplugs in to see if it was better. – “And?” – he yelled out over the loud music. You shook your head at Dane as it wasn’t helping. He exhaled deep, wondering what to do next. – “It’s going to be alright Y/n. Try… try focusing only on my voice.” – Dane took your hand, rubbing your back. Dane started to ramble out stuff about training as it didn’t help at all.

Riven was by the pool table. When it wasn’t his turn, lifted he his head up to look around. Between people’s leg spotted he something. He wasn’t sure at first. Then when the crowd on the dancefloor moved around widened his eyes. – “What the actual fuck!” – he spitted out with a deep glare. He pushed his pool stick into another guy’s hands. Angry forced he a way through the crowd. Riven felt disgusted, betrayed, and jealous that Dane was by your side. Riven could sense that you had another overwhelming episode.

It vexed him that Dane was there trying to help you when that was his task. Only he could sooth you so why was this prick even trying. Dane helped you up to your feet. – “Your so death!” – Riven cursed out, grabbing Dane by his shoulder. He turned him around to him, grabbing him firmly by the shirt. – “What the fuck do you think you are doing!” – he called out, glaring threateningly at Dane.

“I-I-I-I-I I just saw her on the floor.” – Dane stuttered out. Riven looked at you, letting go of Dane. He pulled at the string of his earplugs, letting them plop out of your ears. – “Was this your stupid idea?” – Riven hummed sarcastically at the end of his sentence. – “I…I thought it would work. I see Musa wear them all the time.” – Dane answered. Riven grabbed Dane by his shirt again. – “Y/n isn’t fucking Musa is she now! If I see you around her again. Your death!” – Riven let go of Dane.

“Riven!” – you called out still panicking. Riven grabbed you, leading you out of the room. You got outside yet it still felt like you were unstable. Riven walked sturdy away from the building with you. You stopped him at the green fields, feeling like you were going to explode. – “Riven… I can’t… I can’t…” – you called out, shaking your head, your hands pressed firmly on your ears. A pulse vibrated off you again. This time it was deeper purple.

You clenched your jaw at the intense pain it was causing you. Riven grabbed you by the shoulders. – “Y/n listen to me! Stay with me okay!” – he called out in a panic. This time he wasn’t sure what to do. Your hands were trembling as you breathed in shocks. Riven grabbed a hand of yours, pressing it against his chest. – “Feel my heartbeat! Only focus on it.” – you tried to focus on it, feeling it beat against your palm. Riven kept a close on you, seeing a slight change in you. It did seemed to work, yet he needed like a final push to bring you completely back.

The pulsing aura started to fade out as he was glad about that. You still looked uncomfortable. Riven pulled you closer to him by your shoulder. You widened your eyes when Riven pressed his lips onto yours. You blinked rapidly, the shininess in your eyes fading. Then you closed your eyes, moving your arms around Riven. He pressed his hands against your back, pulling you closer to him. The last of the voices disappeared as your own feelings took the wheel.

You kissed Riven full on. Your lips never getting enough of his. You parted, gazing up to him. Riven touched your chin with a cheeky smile. – “I love you Y/n.” – it wasn’t the first time you had heard him say it. You used to casually say it to each other all the time. This time it did felt different. Purer. You knew he meant every word of it. – “I love you too Riven.” – you answered with a smile. Riven kissed you again to seal his words with yours. – “Are you feeling any better?” – he asked.

You nodded getting on the tips of your toes. – “Your my remedy.” – you whispered to him. – “I’m sorry I didn’t found you earlier.” – he breathed out, feeling a bit guilty. – “That’s alright. You always come at the right time.” – you answered letting his nose brush against yours. Riven squeezed your waist. – “I promise you I’ll always be there. We’ll conquer this together. Just you and me.” – he kissed you once more. – “Just us.” – you whispered.
