Cupid

I sat down on the couch with a cup of coffee at hand, just observing the friendly chaos that was happening within the Waters family.

Ren and Gillian were playing some kind of game on the Xbox while Mrs. Waters was trying to sweep the area they were sitting on.

“Ha! Suck it, loser,” Gillian boasted as she passed Ren on the leaderboard.

“Shut up. The game isn’t over yet anyways,” Ren grumbled.

“Will the two of you scoot over so I could sweep the floors?” their mother said with a tired sigh. However, despite the tiredness in her voice, I could see the smile on her face. I could tell that she must have missed this kind of setup—with her two children bickering over pointless things.

I chuckled as I saw Gillian gloat about her win. She continuously poked Ren’s shoulder and called him a loser.

Mrs. Waters saw this and smiled at me. “Sorry for this, Cupid. These two have always been rowdy.”

I shook my head as I placed my cup down. “No need for apologies, mom. I’m actually quite enjoying

    Gillian“Fuck. Are you sure?” I asked Cupid.He frantically nodded my head.I peeked at the exit from behind him and immediately went back to my hiding spot.For a second, I thought that some normal men were just hanging around the exit of the mall. But as I took a look closer, I recognized one of the men as Titus.“What are they doing here? How the hell did they even find this place?” I muttered under my breath.“I don’t know,” Cupid said. “But we have to go, fast. Is there any other exit other than this one?”“Yes, come with me,” I said as I held his hand and dragged him to the other side of the mall. I used to come to this mall when I was in high school, so I practically knew this place like it was my house.A good thing about this mall is that it had many loopholes. It’s quite an old building, so it needs a lot of repairs. However, the owner couldn’t give two fucks about fixing his building, so he just left it be.I pulled Cupid to a restricted area. “Here,” I said when I found an

    Gillian“We have to leave today.”I could see the shift of emotions in my parent’s eyes, and even Ren, who isn’t very emotional, had a frown on his face.“Does it have to be today?” my mom asked. “You’ve only been here for two days.”“I know, mom,” I sighed, also disappointed with our current situation. “But we have no choice. We can’t take the risk of them finding us in here.”“That’s right,” Cupid agreed. “And we don’t want to drag you into this. Who knows what they might do to you when they find out that we’re here?”My dad crossed his arms in front of his chest and furrowed his eyebrows. “You can stay here. I’ve been practicing my shooting skills for the past day, and I could proudly say that I can beat them.”I smiled and lightly chuckled. “That’s still too dangerous, dad.”“Save the bullets of the gun in case something happens, dad,” Cupid added. “For now, we have to leave this place. But don’t worry, we’ll make sure to come back once we solve everything.”“Will you be alright?”

    GillianShe took Cupid’s hand and mindlessly shook it. “Sure,” she started off. “Let’s go to his office.”We followed her up the stairs until we arrived in front of King Axel’s office.“Are you sure this is alright?” I whispered into Cupid’s ear, and he just nodded his head.“Love,” Rosalind said as she opened the door.“Yes, love?” I heard King Axel say. I unconsciously smiled when I heard how soft they called each other. This just shows how genuine their love is.“We have some visitors.”“Visitors?” King Axel asked, perplexed. “Who would visit us at this hour?”Rosalind opened the door wide, revealing Cupid and me to the seated King Axel. His eyes widened in surprise when he saw the two of us.“Cupid?”“What’s up?” Cupid nonchalantly greeted.“Dude? What are you doing here?” King Axel exclaimed as he walked over to the two of us.“It’s a long story. Do you have some time to talk?”“Of course.”***“So, let me get this straight—you’re being hunted down by Cyrus—your supposed guardian

    CupidToday is the day where we execute the plan. We have gone over everything that we’re about to do, but I feel like there are some things that Axel and Rosalind haven’t told me about. I asked them about my suspicions the other day, but they told me that I shouldn’t think too much about it. So, that’s what I did. I placed my trust on them because I know that they are my dear friends. Gillian seems to know about their plan, but wouldn’t tell me. Even if I threaten her with kisses, she still wouldn’t tell me, so I guess it’s something that she can’t really divulge. Speaking of Gillian, I’m happy that she seems to be having a good time while we’re staying here. Her and Rosalind had gotten pretty close, leaving Axel and I to hang out by ourselves. Don’t get me wrong. I like hanging out with Axel, but I wouldn’t want to spend my every day with him. Even now, when I’m about to depart to Cyrus and I’s meeting place, she’s still nowhere to be found.“Where’s Gillian?” I asked Axel who wa

    Cupid“Gillian,” I said, trying to keep myself together.“You still love her, hmm?” Cyrus said, circling around the love of my life.“It’s obvious, really,” Maeve intercepted. She side-eyed Gillian. “But I don’t understand. She doesn’t look like she’s worth fighting for.”“I agree,” Cyrus said. “You’re much more of a catch than she is.”I could see the sadness in Gillian’s eyes, and I felt in despair, knowing that I couldn’t do anything.“Let her go, Cyrus,” I said. “I already told you—I don’t love her anymore, so don’t involve her in any of these.”“If you don’t love her, then it would be easy for you to let her go, right? If you really don’t love her anymore, then it wouldn’t be a big deal for her to die right now,” he said in a cold voice.I sighed and looked up to the sky, feeling desperate. “Why?” I couldn’t help but ask.“Hmm?” he hummed.I looked into his eyes and clenched my jaw. “Why are you even doing all of this? What the hell did I do so wrong?” I burst out.“Woah, Woah!”

    Gillian“Remember, Gillian. Don’t fret. We’ve already deposited the money, and we’ve also promised to help his family, so he’ll most likely keep the promise,” Rosalind said.I nodded my head. “I know. I’m not afraid. I’m willing to do anything for the plan.”“Good,” she nodded her head. “But if worse comes to worst, we’re just right behind your back.”Today was the day of the plan, and we were already at the meeting place set by Cupid. We were hiding behind some tall trees while Cupid was out in the opening. Cyrus had just arrived, and I was dying to find out what they were talking about.When I saw that Cupid was already being aggravated, I took that as the go signal to start walking in their direction.Cyrus and I made eye contact from a distance, then he smirked while looking at Cupid. The next thing I knew, Cupid had already turned around, shaking his head and urging me to go back to the hiding spot.However, I kept on walking until I made it beside Cyrus. Cupid called out my name

    Gillian“Are all the bags in the car already?” Cupid asked as he closed the trunkI nodded my head and went to the passenger seat. “Yeah. Everything’s settled.”We both entered the car and started driving to our destination. I turned on the radio to liven up the atmosphere for the long drive. “Do your parents know that we’re going to visit them?” I shook my head. “Nope. I was planning on surprising them.”Cupid chuckled while ruffling my hair. “Your parents are going to be frazzled. We haven’t even contacted them ever since we made it to the Faerie kingdom.”I smiled sheepishly. “I kind of forgot. We were just so busy with plotting the plan that it didn’t cross my mind anymore. They must be very worried right now.”He nodded his head. “Let’s hurry up so we can show them that we’re okay then.”After a long drive, we finally made it to my parent’s house. We haven’t even made it out of the car when my mom bursted out of the door and started fussing around. She quickly called for my dad

I thought that he was joking at first since he asked so casually. I jokingly agreed with him that day, but I was surprised when he took me wedding dress shopping the moment I woke up. He continued to take me to different appointments all throughout the week, and now we’re here.I sat down on my seat and looked around the reception area. We decided to have a small gathering in a secluded garden, and it couldn’t be more beautiful. We didn’t invite many people—just those who are dear to us.My family was sitting at a table near to us, and I could see Ren overloading his plate in the buffet area. Rosalind and Axel also came, d

    It has been exactly eight months since Axel and Cupid called each other to share that their respective wives were pregnant, and it has also been eight months since they’ve been seeing each other every month. Axel sighed as he packed his bags once again.“Are you ready, love?” Rosalind called out from the bathroom.Axel smiled and tried to sound cheery. “Yes, love. I’ll just load the bags in the car.”“Alright, I’ll come down after peeing,” she called out.“Stay here while I load our things, love. I’ll go back here to come and fetch you.”Rosalind flushed the toilet and moved out of the bathroom. “Wait, let’s just go together,” she walked toward her husband. She held onto her back as she walked since her stomach had gotten so big that her back failed to support her by itself anymore.Axel clicked his tongue and shook his head when he saw her struggling to walk. He placed their bags down on the ground and walked over to where she was. One hand held onto her back while the other held on

    Axel excitedly dialed Cupid's number, ready to tell him about the unexpected news. As much as the two of them try to deny it, they both know, deep inside their hearts, that they treat each other as very good friends. "Yo," Axel said into the phone. "I have something to tell you." "Axel!" Cupid greeted in an equally jolly voice. "I was just about to call you too. I also have some great news." Axel became a little suspicious when he heard that Cupid, too, had some good news, but nothing could really take away from his happiness after the news that he had just heard. "You go first, then," Axel presented since he is in a good mood. "Nah, man. You go first. You're the one who called me first. Go ahead," Cupid responded. "No, you." "No, you go first." "No, YOU go first." "No, you're the one who should go first." They endlessly said to each other. In the end, Axel sighed in frustration. "Let's just say it at the same time, alright. Then we'll explain it individually afterward." "Fi

    "Did you get it?" Rain excitedly said as she went out of her office. Liam looked up from his laptop and focused his attention on Rain. "Get what?" Rain sighed in frustration. "The invitation!" "What invitation?" he asked, confused. Rain walked closer to him and went behind his back. "I told you to check your personal email more often. Come on, open up your account." Liam quickly opened up his personal email account and clicked on the latest message. He read the contents of the email. "A high school reunion?" "Yeah," Rain nodded her head. "Let's go together." Liam smiled. In the course that they have been dating, he could feel that Rain had changed for the better. She had gained so much confidence over the past few months, and Liam feels proud knowing that she had grown to love and appreciate herself even more. "Yeah, let's go together. I also miss some of my high school friends." Rain smiled. "That's settled, then. Let's also buy our outfits together." *** Rain and Liam t

    "This is it," Cupid removed his hands from Gillian's eyes, revealing a spacious yet cozy-looking infrastructure filled with antique designs. "Our new bakery." Gillian looked at the infrastructure in awe, and suddenly got teary-eyed when she realized that they were going to be having a new chapter in their life. Cupid chuckled as he observed his wife's teary eyes. "Why are you crying? This is supposed to be a happy event, love." Gillian wiped her tears with her sleeves and tried her hardest not to cry. "I know, love. I'm just so proud of the two of us." Ever since Gillian and Cupid had been married, they started thinking more about their future. They both knew that Cupid's investments would be more than enough to provide for their everyday needs, but they still would want to have a steady, stable income where the two of them can work together. And as someone who enjoys cooking and baking quite a lot, Cupid suggested that they open a cafe near Briana's restaurant. He thought that

    No matter how many times Axel wakes up to Rosalind in the morning, he still can’t get over how beautiful his wife is. He smiled and leaned closer to her face, tracing her features from her eyes down to her lips.“Axel, stop that,” Rosalind swatted his hand away and scooted farther away from him.“Love, stay here,” Axel whined and pulled her closer, peppering kisses all over her neck.“I’m tired, Axel,” she grumbled and closed her eyes to get more sleep.“Why, my love? Didn’t you get enough sleep yesterday?”Rosalind clicked her tongue and glared at Axel. “Of course, I’m tired! You fucking ruined me yesterday.”Axel smiled with pride. “But you liked it, right?”Rosalind rolled her eyes and turned away from Axel, trying to hide her reddening cheeks. "Whatever. I'm going to sleep."Axel chuckled and placed a chaste kiss on top of her shoulder. "Rest well, my love. I'll be cooking some breakfast.""Mmh," Rosalind hummed, willing herself to sleep once again. Axel quietly went out of the b

    Olivia and Dallas gazed back and forth between Liam who was on stage and Rain who was sitting right next to them. Olivia couldn't help but let out a small chuckle when she saw Rain's flushed face as other people also started teasing her. "How the fuck did he know what I was going to wear?" she asked. Dallas shook his head. "I went with him. He definitely didn't know. He just grabbed the first sweater he saw at Target. Must be destiny or something." Rain knew that Dallas was joking when he told her about destiny, but she couldn't help but blush at the thought that they might really be destined for each other. Liam, who saw Rain from a distance, was also shocked to see that they were wearing the same sweaters. He smiled to himself as he watched Rain getting teased by her other co-workers. 'I knew that going to Target would be a good idea,' he thought in his mind. "Good evening, everyone!" Liam finally said into the mic. The crowd cheered and clapped their hands, ready to star

    When Liam told Rain that he would show her how he truly feels, she thought that he was just joking. There was no way that the guy she has been liking for the past seven years would suddenly show interest in her and make the effort to prove it.However, much to her surprise, he wasn’t lying. Ever since that day, she would always see her favorite coffee on top of her desk. On the weekends, flowers would suddenly show up on her doorstep. And during the end of her shift, Liam would always be waiting for her to take her home.She arrived in the office and saw yet another coffee, accompanied by two blueberry muffins, on top of her desk.“Damn, girl. I’m jealous of this admirer of yours. You’ve been receiving free breakfast for the past week!” Olivia saidRain chuckled and handed Olivia one of the blueberry muffins before taking a sip from her coffee. Olivia smiled in delight before taking the blueberry muffin from Rain's hands. "Do you already know who this admirer is?" she asked. Rain st

    “I like you, alright?” Rain bursted out.“I’ve liked you for so damn long that it’s killing me inside! I know that you don’t see me that way, and I also know that you have something going on with Claire, that’s why I hate myself for even thinking about you—for thinking we could be together. So, stop doing this—whatever this is that you’re doing. To you, this might only be an act of friendship, but to me who has liked you from the beginning, I am starting to misinterpret your actions. It’s so fucking difficult for me to act platonically with you if you keep doing these things. So, please. Stop. I’ll also stop bothering you from now on.”Liam intently listened to every word that Rain said. He never expected this, to be honest. To him, Rain was like an honest friend that always had his back. She would always be there to comfort him whenever he felt down, and even when he had problems with Claire, she’d always be there to listen. Looking back on it, Rain must have suffered a lot because o

    Liam felt giddy as he parked his car in the parking lot. Even if he didn’t get much sleep last night, he still somehow feels energetic. It’s like there’s something, or rather, someone he’s looking forward to seeing to in the office. Rain, on the other hand, had a full night of sleep but she still felt like she didn’t get enough rest. She placed her things down on the table and sat down on her chair with a deep sigh. Olivia saw this, so she walked towards her and placed her hand on her shoulder. “Hey, you alright?”“Mmh?” Rain looked up at Olivia and smiled. “I’m great, Liv.”Even if Rain smiled, it somehow didn’t feel genuine. “Did everything go well yesterday?” Olivia asked, wondering if something bad happened during the dinner, causing her to act like this.Everything went well. Too well, if you ask Rain. Liam and her had the best conversation they ever had, but it only reminded her that their relationship stops at that. She hates herself for thinking that the two of them could ac
