Little Cupid

Love Contract

Elliot yawned as he walked into the building. He was up all night texting Lilith on the phone, so he only got three hours of sleep.

Elliot didn't care how tired he was; it was worth it in his opinion. Lilith loved him back! That's all that mattered to him.

He couldn't wait to see her. He rushed to his locker to get his belongings and hoped to catch Lilith before she went to class.

"Mornin' Ellie!"

Elliot jumped at the voice. He turned and saw that Lilith had come to see him instead.

Elliot was surprised that Lilith didn't look or sound tired regardless of their all-night texting.

"Hello my Lily, " he kissed her cheek, "my precious flower."

Lilith swooned sarcastically, "Oh, how romantic."

Elliot laughed and took Lilith's hand. He decided to walk her to her class since his class was close by hers.

"I love you~, " Elliot cooed.

Lilith responded with no hesitation, "I love you too~."

Caitlyn strode through the hallway filled students to make her way to Amanda's locker.

Caitlyn knew from the start that Amanda would be involved with Cupid, and that video that Cynthia took was just the proof she needed.

She leaned against Amanda's locker, waiting for her.

She'd generally have one of her girls to do this for her, but she wanted to see Amanda's face of fear for herself.

She smiled when she saw Amanda in the crowd; she had a few words to say to her. She was about to speak until she saw Red with her.

'Of course...Amanda is probably taking advantage of this. I swear, I will kill her, slowly.' Caitlyn thought.

Caitlyn put on her happy face as Amanda made eye contact with her, but what shocked her was the fact that Amanda didn't flinch.

Just hearing Caitlyn's voice was enough to make her tense, but now, she's acting like she's never seen Caitlyn before.

Amanda kept her straight face as she got closer to Caitlyn, more concerned about making it to class.

"Hello, little Amy," Caitlyn spoke.

Amanda knew that she wasn't allowed to speak to Caitlyn, so she just silently waved and resumed getting her books.

'What is wrong with her?! She's supposed to be afraid of me! She's probably not because Red is with her,' Caitlyn angrily thought, she never expressed it though.

Red had been watching the interaction and was surprised himself, but he wondered what business Caitlyn had with Amanda.

'Can't be good business, ' Red thought.

Red sent a little glare at Caitlyn's direction and spoke, "Why are you here?"

Caitlyn fired back with a question of her own, "I don't know, why are YOU here?"

"I'm here because the door to my first period is locked, so I'm buying some time. So why are YOU here?"

Caitlyn froze, she hadn't thought of an excuse.

Fortunately for her, surprisingly, Amanda stepped in by slamming her locker to gain both of their attention.

Amanda whispered to the both of them, "The school is watching. Cupid already gave them something to talk about."

Amanda quietly patted Red on his shoulder as a friendly gesture and walked away. Red was confused as to why she did, but he and Caitlyn noticed that some students stopped what they were doing to listen to their conversation.

'She must have done that to suggest that we were just friends.' For some reason, Red was a little hurt at the thought, but he focused on getting away, he didn't need any more publicity.

Once Red had sneaked away, all eyes were on Caitlyn.

She was planning on lying to the crowd by saying that Red regrets breaking up with her, but she just flipped her hair and walked away.

Elliot was using his cafeteria time to get a head start on his homework for tonight.

He was working on his chemistry density worksheet when he felt something cold hitting the side of his face, repeatedly.

When turned his head, a grape had hit him in his face.

The one who threw the grape was Lilith, who was poorly stifling her laughter.

Rather than throwing the grape back at her, he threw the fruit at a random person sitting at a table.

Lilith caught on to what he was doing, so she hid the grapes in her bag and pretended to be casually talking to Elliot, who had his back turned to the unfortunate student.

In the corner of her eye, Lilith saw the student looking around trying to find who threw food at him. When he heard laughter behind him, he assumed that the person behind him threw it.

The accused person must have been a friend of the random person since he dared to throw his entire tray of food at him.

Lilith felt tears pricking her eyes as she watched the whole situation go down. Elliot snapped his head behind him as he heard gasping.

One thing led to another, and the two people started to fight, all while someone shouted, "FOOD FIGHT!"

Elliot and Lilith hid under the table laughing to avoid any food pieces that could hit them.

Lilith saw security running towards the two students to break them up and stop the food fight. Though, someone was bold enough to throw food at the security guard.

Elliot started to control his laughter and whispered to Lilith, "My dad's going to kill me when he finds out about this!"

"You mean IF he finds out about this."

Elliot chuckled, "If. If is good."

The two laughed at the reference and sneakily made their way back into their seats once they were sure that the food fight was over.

"Alright, do something fun with Lilith, check," Elliot said in which Lilith giggled.

'Now, there's one more thing I have to do before I leave today.'

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Amanda held her phone to her ear as she walked away from the library and out of the school.

"I heard that there was a food fight today in the earlier lunches. And a regular fight."

Amanda heard Ebony groan into the phone and contained her laughter, "Stuff like this always happens when I'm gone! Why?!"

"I'm sorry that you must suffer in such a way."

Ebony decided to change the subject, "So Caitlyn thinks that you're involved with Cupid, but she thinks that you're not Cupid."

"I assume so, but I believe that she was going to confront me about it. Speaking of the matchmaker, I have a note to answer. I have to hurry since I have homework to do. Talk to you later!"

"Bye bye, Amy!"

Amanda hung up the phone and made her way out of the building.

'I hope that Elliot had the chance to talk to his friend, or hopefully girlfriend now.'
