  I was walking down the street of the park when I felt an arrow collide in my rear. I took it out and look around to see a beautiful man hitting people with arrows. He had blonde curly hair, sliver eyes and was packed up with muscles. The people he hit seemed to fall more in love with the person they were walking with.

  "Excuse me sir," I say tapping his shoulder.

  He looks back and is shocked to see me. 

  "Here's your darn arrow back," I say pushing it into his chest.

  "You see me?" 

  "How could I not? Your hitting people with those arrow-"

  "You don't know who I am, do you?"

  "A man who's commentating to be cupid."

  "Not completating, I am."

  He says wings form beside him. He took me in his arms and lifted me in the air. Though I kick and scream for him to let go, he finally does putting me in a garden.

  "Couldn't you have been silent and just walked away leaving me alone. Why did you have to prove it to me?"

  "You're the only human who has ever seen me."

  "Wow, love at first arrow. Wait who was I supposed to fall for?"

  "Kristina, your girlfriend."

  "Meh."

  "You don't love her."

  "I don't. She just gives me a place to stay at night."

  Cupid looks at me and frowns, "heartless bastard."

  "It seems I haven't fallen in love with her."

  "Just give it time."

  "Or what?"

  "You could fall in love with me."
