They were friends in Season 2 and became a couple at the end when Musa kissed him. Starting in Season 3, they argue a lot as a couple. Even though it appears that they do not seem to love each other much because of their arguments, it is revealed other wise in Season 4 when the boys are kidnapped, each time Musa gets on stage by Riven's jealousy and anger and by each of Riven's attempts at showing his love to her. Riven even writes a song for her in Season 5.

That same day, Riven is injured in a Wind Riders race by the helmet Bloom gave him to make peace. Darcy heals him and he goes with her, thinking his so called "friends" do not want him any good. When Musa sees Darcy and Riven together in a witch bar, Icy, Stormy and the witches run after her in Magix after she slapped Icy. When she ran by Riven, she asks him to help her, but he is almost laughing at her asking her why he would help her. She is heart broken and, in tears, runs away.
At the end of the battle, Riven comes to help her up, which makes a smile appear on Musa's face, and, holding hands, they look deeply into each other's eyes, almost lovingly.

In the Wildlands, Musa and Riven argue but finally reconcile when she finds him spying on the Trix. Riven wants Musa to watch them while he goes and warn the others of their presence, but Musa decides otherwise. She chooses to trust him by letting him spy on them and tells him she likes him, earning her her Charmix.
At the end, before entering Darkar's Fortress, Musa mocks Riven, telling him that he is not all into the mushy stuff, but Riven pulls Musa in a hug, admitting to her he does not know what he would do without her and asks her to promise him that she will come back to him.
During the fight to save Bloom, when Musa is about to be struck by Darkar, Riven runs in front of her, getting injured. Musa goes to Riven's side trying to wake him up, when she gives up, she kisses him. However, as Bloom used her healing power to heal everyone, Musa is flustered when Riven opens his eyes and scoots away from him, as she did not want him to know she loves him.
