Cupid's Arrow

Happy Valentine's Day everyone!~

I thought I'd share an old drabble of mine that I wrote a long time ago, even before Stubborn Pride. You might notice some similarities from this story with some other things I've written, namely Shake My Heart and Unfinished Business. That's because I ended up scrapping this story to steal some elements from it for better ideas. But since it's Valentine's Day, and I really wanted to write something but I've been too busy moving, I decided to share this. Warning, it's pretty silly lol, but I hope you still enjoy it.

Being a first year in High School was tough, especially for someone shy and quiet like Sehun. He had just recently moved to Seoul, and was having a hard time finding a place to fit in, considering most of the students already knew each other. He had made a few friends in his classes, but hadn't decided who he wanted to ask to eat with at lunch yet. So, for the time being, he ate alone. Which he was fine with, because honestly it might have been awkward if one of his friends noticed him gawking at his crush the entire lunch period.

Sehun stared over at the table filled with the most popular third year kids in school. As they were all laughing and talking loudly to each other, Sehun focused on a particular face among them. It belonged to Byun Baekhyun, the most adorable and beautiful boy Sehun had ever seen.

Unfortunately, Baekhyun was two years older than him. Sehun had already given up hope on ever being with Baekhyun, considering he would be graduating soon anyway. So, Sehun simply enjoyed the sight of Baekhyun while he could, wishing somehow he had been born two years earlier.

He ate slowly, his eyes staying on Baekhyun as he fed himself. He didn't want to miss one of Baekhyun's smiles, each time that cheerful expression appeared it melted his heart.

"Just go and ask him out already!"

Sehun was startled by a small voice, and at last removed his eyes from Baekhyun to look around, wondering who was shouting at him. However, no one was there. After a long moment, he finally dismissed the strange voice, and went back to looking at Baekhyun while he ate.

"At the rate you're going, Baekhyun will never be yours!"

Sehun snapped to look around again, checking more thoroughly than before, when suddenly a tiny figured appeared in front of him, standing on his food tray. The tiny person looked rather irritated.

"Look, if you're not going to do anything, I'll just have to help you."

Sehun stared at him in awe, mouth open wide gasping. The tiny figure suddenly pulled out a miniature bow and arrow, pointing it at Sehun. Before Sehun could react, he was struck with a very tiny arrow.

A strange feeling came over Sehun, a confidence he had never experienced before. He suddenly rose to his feet with a look of strong determination in his eyes, staring at Baekhyun once more. He confidently strolled towards Baekhyun's table, walking quickly across the school yard.

Sehun's shadow blocked the light for their table, and Baekhyun turned around once he noticed the tall person standing behind him, staring right at him.

"It's a first year student..." Jongdae whispered to their friends in slight surprise.

"Need help with something kid?" Jongin asked as he took another bite of his food.
