The Cupid’s Love
The Cupid sat up in a tree outside of a high school; watching and waiting; looking for her next pair of people to strike with the arrows of love. Out of the front doors walks three people; a boy and two girls. Upon spotting these people, she drew her bow and took aim. Usually in a situation like this, she would have already shot an arrow and made two of them fall in love. But, for some reason, it felt different this time; this time she lowered her bow and just smiled.
"Let love be love; let it find itself" she whispered before flying out of the tree. Looking back over her shoulder she saw the happy couple walking hand in hand; with the boy next to them.
