I'm not here for your entertainment



He takes my hand…

You don't really want to mess with me tonight



“Get off me…”

Just stop and take a second



Another kiss…

I was fine before you walked into my life



“Stop it!”



-----------Earlier that day-----------


“Happy Valentine’s Day, Ariel!” Brandon handed me a box of chocolates and a bouquet of roses.

“Uh, Valentine’s day was last week.” I giggled and took the gifts.

“Yeah, I know, but I couldn’t get off work, remember?” He did his beautiful half-smile. “Get dressed, we’re going out!”

“Going out? Where?” I questioned him, refusing to budge.

“That’s a secret.” He does that smile again.

“Ugh, fine.” I stomped off. “I’ll go get dressed.”

“Wear something nice!” Brandon yelled up.

“Ugh, fine!” I yelled back down, trying to state my dissatisfaction about going somewhere. I heard him laugh about my obvious hatred of this plan.

I quickly put on a dress and did my hair and went back downstairs, where Brandon was waiting by the door. “Heheh, you look nice.” He flashed me another heart-melting smile and walked me to the car.

It was a long, silent drive to wherever it was we were going. I tried asking him where we were headed, but he wouldn’t tell me.

When we finally arrived, I saw that we were at the karaoke bar, some place that I seemed to find myself visiting often. He walked me inside, where I saw Aria, Danielle, Willow, Mila, and Larn.

“Surprise!” They all yelled, annoying the bartender. I shot Brandon a menacing look, which he laughed at.

“What’s going on?” I asked, surprised that everyone was here.

“Hahah, since I couldn’t do anything for you for Valentine’s day, we decided to throw you a little party!” Brandon beamed. I was actually happy that he was doing this for me. It’d been a while since I had done anything for Valentine’s Day. Brandon started to smile when he noticed that I was smiling, so I quickly turned my head away, which made him laugh. “So, I’m guessing you know everyone here, right?” I nodded. “Great!” I went up to the bar and ordered a drink, which I gulped down. After a minute of sitting there, Larn and Mila walked up to me.

“Hey!” Mila waved. “I invited Larn, cause you all looked like friends last time I saw you two.” She smiled. Not really, I hardly knew him, but I wasn’t going to tell her that. In fact, he sorta scared me.

“Uh, alright.” I responded. “Hey, I gotta use the bathroom, if that’s alright with you.” I walked through them, and headed to the bathroom, where I stared into the mirror. Why was I so afraid of him? What has Larn done to me to make me so nervous around him? I was interrupted from my thoughts by a stepping sound, and when I turned around, I saw a pink man I have never seen before staring at me.

“Ariel Spencer, right?” He asked, walking towards me.

“Uh, yeah.” I responded warily.

“Hey! My name is Cupid—yes, like the mythological son of Aphrodite. In fact, that’s who I am.” He smiled, and I almost laughed at this story. “I understand you’re running a 100 Baby Challenge, right? I wanna help!”

“Uh, okay, well then let’s—” He waved his hand and a pink wave of color surrounded me, engulfing me in pleasure and pink. When my vision came back to normal, ‘Cupid’ was no longer standing there and Larn was walking through the door.

“Hey, Ariel, you rushed out of there pretty quick, you okay?” He smiled as he got closer to me.

“Uh, yeah, j-just fine.” I turn my head away for a second, and when I turn back, his face is close to mine. And, for unknown reasons to me, he kissed me. He takes me hand. “Get off me.” He kisses me again. “Stop it!” I push him off of me and he hits the stall and falls down. I run out of the bathroom and into the bar, where everyone was laughing and socializing, until they heard me slam the door open. They all looked at me in shock and disbelief as I barged through the door, the look of anger on my face matching the anger in my heart. “I’m leaving.” I announced, grabbing Brandon by the hand, and dragging him to the car.

After a little while, I was surprised to find out that I was actually pregnant with Cupid’s babies. I gave birth to two beautiful babies, a boy and a girl, Apollo and Artemis.
