The Second Time Cupid Fell - C.A Cupid × Alistair Wonderland

𝟒

The first time Cupid fell in love, was a few months ago.

Other boys rarely caught her eye.

When she first moved to Ever After High, she had heard of rumors, about Daring Charming, the first son of King Charming. The boy that stole every girl's heart. She looked forward to meeting him, and seeing for herself how Daring is like. How great must he be, that everyone's talking about him in such a manner? It's safe to say, that her expectations for him were high.

One day, she was walking down the halls, when a crowd suddenly gathered.

"It's Daring!" the girls screamed.

They crowded around Daring Charming. Cupid raised her eyebrows. She walked to the crowd, trying to catch a glimpse of him, to see what was so great about the Charming boy. She stood on her toes, to try get a good look of him. And then, saw him. Striking blonde hair, shining teeth, and a beautiful smile. He was handsome, charming, definitely. But she felt nothing.

Daring Charming continued walking, the crowd moving along with him, and basically ambushed Cupid, who was standing still. She fell to the floor, landing on her butt. Cupid winced. No one even bothered looking at her. Their eyes were on Daring, and Daring only. Cupid grumbled to herself. She was about to stand up on her own when a hand appeared right in front of her. Cupid looked up.

A boy with brown hair and glasses was looking down at her, his eyes concerned. 

"Are you okay?" he asked. 

Cupid's heart skipped a beat.

She stayed silent. She looked at him, really looked at him.

It's you, her heart said.

I found you.

Cupid stayed on the ground, her eyes on his.

The shrieks of the crowd broke her out of her trance, and Cupid took the boy's hand. He helped her up, and made sure she wasn't hurt or injured. He saw that Cupid was fine, and he gave her an embarrassed smile.

"Sorry about my brother."

Cupid's eyebrows furrowed.

"Your brother?"

He nodded. "Yeah," a chuckle escaped him, "We don't look alike, but, we're brothers." He looked down as he said that.

Cupid's heart was beating fast. She gave him a slow nod.

"What's your name?" she asked.

The boy lifted his head.

"My name's Dexter Charming, you?"

She was in love.

C.A Cupid went to the rooftop for some air.

She loved it there. People don't come to the rooftop often, so she could have some time with herself and relax, alone.

The cold wind greeted her, the sun was setting beautifully. The orange light was warm on her skin, but its warmth was quickly washed away by the cold air.

Cupid's hair flowed with the wind. It was chilly, but she didn't mind. She put her arms around herself and sat on the bench. Cupid leaned back. She stared at the sunset and sighed.

She only had one thing on her mind.

Of course, none other than Dexter Charming.

At first, a small feeling of anger coursed through her heart. She felt an anger towards Raven, for catching Dexter's eyes, and angry at Dexter himself, for not noticing her. But she quickly shook the foolish, childish thoughts away. She scoffed at herself. How could she be angry at them for simply liking each other?
