The Number Struck by Cupid

Summary:

“Great! So according to the Cupid Rules and Requirements Protocol..” An old fashioned scroll poofed out of nowhere, as she unrolled it. “Ah, yes! Blah blah blah blah blah.. In order for the arrow’s enchantment to be dispelled, you must reciprocate the affection! In other words,”

The scroll disappeared into thin air.

“You have to kiss Two– Specifically on the lips!”

Four choked on air at One’s words, completely in shock.

“WHAT?!”

Chapter Text

“Ugh.. Look at all these boring humans!”

One grumbled, looking down at all the busy people getting to where they needed to be. She laid back on the cloud she was on, groaning in annoyance. It was about 11 PM at night, and she was absolutely exhausted.

“Gosh this job is the worst..”

She mumbled, now struggling to keep her eyes open. One was a cupid. A cupid that wasn’t very great at their job. Unfortunately, being one isn’t as easy as it sounds.

Imagine this: Everyday you search around the entire Earth for people to pair together- For hours and hours and hours! Sounds tiring doesn’t it? Now imagine that every day of your life. Too bad for One– she’s been doing it for centuries!

One fidgeted with her hair, on the verge of falling asleep. She was about to call it a day, before something caught her eye. There was one particular human with blue hair, and another with green hair, and they were both yelling at each other in an alleyway. Curious, One lowered her cloud a bit closer to the scene, getting a better look at them.

“What the FUCK? You’re really looking for trouble aren’t you Two?”

The human with green hair's name was apparently Two. They had their hair down, two pink bows keeping their bangs to the side. They wore a pastel pink cardigan, it being buttoned up all the way. A pleated mini skirt put together their outfit, along with the white thigh high socks with ribbon garters to keep them up. To finish it up, they wore pink mary janes, their outfit completely contrasting the other person.

“Why not? It’s funny seeing you all mad anyways, Four.”

The other human’s name was Four, and he looked like the exact opposite of Two. His hair was messy and shaggy, as if it wasn’t brushed in days (It probably wasn’t). He wore a loose off the shoulder dark shirt, along with a grey chain necklace. A yellow sweater was tied around his waist, and he wore jorts underneath. His red converse were worn out and dirty, and so were his grey socks.

Two chuckled, shoving Four with even more force this time. This made Four hit the brick wall behind him, allowing Two to grab his wrists and pin them to the wall.

“Let go!” Four retorted, trying to get out of Two’s grasp. Two’s grip only tightened, as Four hissed in pain. One thing that One had noticed though was how easily misinterpreted this scene could be…

One watched intensely, curious in this quarrel before realizing that this would be a great time to do it!

“Perfect.”

She smirked, getting her bow and arrow ready. She drew the bowstring back, closing her left eye to get a more accurate shot. Shooting the arrow, she released the string, the arrow flying into the air. It was all so fast—the arrow sprung into action as it stabbed into one's back, that back being.. Two’s.

Two gasped for a split second–but not in a ‘I just got shot’ kind of way. It was as if they were lost in the moment. Processing it. One silently celebrated, as she watched Two’s expression slowly change. Their teasing smirk turned into an unreadable expression, their eyes widening slightly.

Two’s grip on Four’s wrists softened, as they stared into Four’s eyes. Four looked at Two, confused at the sudden change in demeanor.

“..Two?? Earth to Two?” Four got one of his hands out of Two’s grip, waving it in front of their face. He then scoffed, thinking Two was playing some sort of stupid prank. But then he realized the heat creeping onto their face, that only made him even more befuddled.

A smile crept onto One’s face, widening more and more. Oh how fun it was to make people fall in love! And the best part was–it was totally harmless!...

…Well, mostly harmless to say the least..!
