"OMG, seriously, Rachel just literally cannot date my ex! Seriously, that backstabbing biotch needs to get away from Demetrious!" Celeste screamed. My twin sister is literally the opposite of me, I can't even explain it. "Dude calm the crap down. You stopped being friends with Rachel when you were 5. We're 16 now. She doesn't give a shit about you." I remarked. Celeste gaped at me and sashayed away. What an annoying brat. "KIDDOS! Time for some yum yum brekkie!" My dad said, in his always obsessively cheery voice. Makes me wanna barf. All of my siblings and I ran downstairs for the usual heart shaped pancakes, and toast.
Did I mention I'm one of 30 kids? My father is Cupid. Yup, the almighty "Love-Maker" as some may say. Which makes all 30 of us Demi-gods, or half god. When he was around 1500 years old, but he always looks about 30, he started having kids. He would just go to the mortal world and "hook up" with drunk women. Those kids ended up living with their mom, not Cupid. Finally, he started out fresh by marrying Hecate, which lasted about 300 years. He had us not too long ago, when they decide at 280 years was long enough to not have kids. After Celeste and I were born, Hecate filed for divorce. My poor bubs was crushed. Now he always acts happy, which he totes isn't. Pathetic? Yep.
"Alright Kiddos. Big news." Dad said. Spurts of "Divorce" "Remarriage" "Drugs" and all sorts of things went around the 30 of us. "SILENCE! I've been getting tired of being the love master, and decided it's time for one of you to take my place. No sexism tolerated, so girls, you could be me too. You will be trying to create one of the best couples in school, by using your love instincts, not magic, understood? Which ever couple is voted cutest couple by the high school by the end of the year, is Cupid. You may start today." Cupid said, then marched away with his pink apron and pink slippers.
"We all know I'll win. I'm the brains of this whole operation morons." Bruno said. Sure, he was smart, but has he had a girlfriend? Nah. "Oh c'mon you freaks don't have love capability like me. I'm the most dated girl at the school!" Celeste said sassily. "Slut." Giorgio yelled. The whole table went nuts. I walked away with my phone in hand checking Instagram. I could win this, cause I'm the calmest. I've got this.
The school bus finally came, 20 minutes late! "Sorry Belle, the dipwad Ares kids poked holes in the tires again." Jorge said. He was a satyr, half goat, half man. "S'all good JorgePorge. Want me to knock some sense into them?" I asked innocently. "Be careful Bee. They can be intense." Jorge said, sounding distressed. I walked over to the back of the bus to the Ares punks. "Listen, you dips better stop messing with Jorge." I yelled. "Get her." Milio said, the leader of their clique. Someone punched me in the face, and all went black.
