FEBRUARY 14TH 2023 'Valentines Day'
"Come ON everybody, time to spread. The. Love!😍" Cupid shouts to his cherubs queerly as he emphasized the last few words. Standing right by him smiling was none other than his daughter Y/n who was decked out with pink and heart arrows ready for her first day on the job, who would've thunk that her first day was of course the most busy day out of the whole year.
But that wasn't the problem, the real problem was how much love has decreased throughout recent years. Men abusing their power and authority, women developing a more materialistic mindset, and the expenses that come with it. Nobody ever just seemed right for each other.
But today is Valentine's Day, people are going to fall in love and they are going to love it. The doors slowly began to open, Dad was ready to give earth a peace of his mind for all of the trouble the humans were causing him over the past few years. We were in our jets ready to launch down to earth, '10....9....8....7....6' "Ready!" Cupid shouts '5....4....3' "Time to show those human hooligans what love is!" He finished as he started vibrating in his seat in excitement '2....1'.
As the hanger door fully opened we all flooded down to earth. Pink magenta sky's around us magically turned into a morning blue as we arrived, 'time to get to business, the plan is to do as much as I can. And for my dad, I turn to see him in "military mode", whatever that means.'

'Hours among hours pass while doing what I could to make this the best Valentine's Day I could, I wouldn't want to disappoint dad' . But as quickly my doubts came to mind I was just as quickly dragged out of my thoughts as something caught my attention, well.... more like someone. A fairy, his mythical periwinkle hair, those glittering intelligent eyes. Everything about him was so....Alluring.
I then took notice of the boy standing beside him, his lightish brownish hair with slight orange highlights, wearing sunglasses that seemed too big for his face. If it wasn't obvious why the fairy was roaming around earth then it was now. He was this kid's godparent, and they didn't seem to be enjoying each other's company.
Before I could continue observing the duo a voice came in on the intercom. It was my dad, talking about how we did spectacular and how 'that would stick it to them.' For a second I was readying to go back to 'Fairy World' but I turned around to see the periwinkle fairy had shapeshifted into a pair of headphones on the boy's head.
The boy was now talking to a dark skinned girl, he sounded rude and sparky.
'Aww~♡- how cute'
I pull up the glass shield and grab one of my last few arrows before aiming it at the young boy and letting go of the bow string. I turn back around getting ready to leave for home.

After that stressfully chill first day I was about to leave for home. But I was interrupted by a bone crushing hug and a loud excited voice next to your ears, 'Dad'. "Oh my baby! You did great!" My father practically announcing how proud he was for anybody nearby.
Softly smiling "yeah?" I questioned my father, my pride evident. "Oh Of Course! Sweetie, this is cause for celebration!" We both were more or less pretty ecstatic, at the end of the day we ended up going drinking. It was a great day, something about making people fall In Love made me feel so accomplished.
As the glittery night sky darkened I felt it was time to get home, gathering my bag and my dad -_-. Paying the bill and poofing the both of us to my house, I dragged him onto the couch and poured him a glass of water to wake up to. He was wasted. I went to my room and gave the night one final goodbye once I knocked out cold at the immediate touch of my bed.
Encaptured into a dream, a fantasy whether it was the drunken state of my body or something else. It was all so beautiful, I stood stationary my eyes making my curiosity evident as I stared up into the trees. But fear was still yet to be detected although I was all alone with only the sound of the wrinkling leaves to keep me company.
'Snap!'
My head snaps to the side. Focusing my eyes before landing onto the source of the noise. It was him, the fairy, it was him. Those half lidded eyes, the way his hair shimmered from the light. Gorgeous that was the only word that could describe the man as he used the tree closest to him as support.
His face looked desperate. The sight before me, it was all so splendid, I gathered him a small smile before closing my eyes as I allowed myself to swim into the music of the forest, the sounds of nature. Leafs brushing against each other, the falling of berries. But none of the sounds belonged to an animal. A large bang rang through the forest, my eyes open, my ears ringing while I looked to the purple man in tattered clothing for answers. He was now reaching out to me, yelling something. No, not something, my name 'Y/n'.
Immediately opening my eyes frantically scanning my room, Breathing heavily, I calmed down from my cold sweat. My whole body was hot, my throat felt dry and scratchy. My head was spinning, my body was aching and I felt nauseous. I let out a groan from this revelation, I turn my head tiredly to my bathroom door. Before falling in and out of sleep, after some time I reach out for my wand. I drowsily checked for the time 8:43am.
Then I began to start to wonder if my dad was awake, and if he already left for his home. I grunted trying to get up, resulting in me just sitting there on my bed with my eyes pinned closed for a few good minutes. Before I could slump back down I call for my father, "baba" I wasn't even trying with the state my throat was in "baba!" I tried again. After a few seconds I came to the conclusion that he probably wasn't he-
My thoughts were completely cut of by the soft yet quick pitter patter of fairy footsteps. Soon followed by the door jittering in its place before opening, revealing my dad with his shoulder against the door frame for support, he looked tired, and holding a cup of coffee. "What's wrong sweetie?" He questioned, by the door "I think I have a fever, ba." I muttered. "Oh (:C" he sucks his teeth in worry.
He walks over to the bed and sat down, placing his coffee on the bedside table. Placing his hand apon my forehead "Oh baby..." he said pulling his hand back. And walk toward my dresser to get me a comfortable change of clothes. 'I'm probably sick from all of that alcohol, yeah that's probably it.'
