It was winter vacation at Ever After High. Cupid and Alistair had been going out for quite a long time now, but their romance had been kept as a secret to the outside world… or at least they thought.

"Oh, Alistair, I'm going to miss you so much." Cupid said, hugging her boyfriend tight.

"I'm going to miss you too, Cupid." Alistair nuzzled against Cupid's soft pink hair. "It's only for a week, right?"

Cupid sighed. "I know, it's a week!"

Just then, Cupid's MirrorPad rang, and she said, "I guess my ride is here. I gotta go now."

Alistair picked up Cupid's trunk and walked her down the flights of stairs out of Ever After High. When they reached the carriage, Alistair kissed Cupid goodbye and watched as the carriage grew farther and farther away from his sight. He sighed. He was going to miss that little girl. But at least they could text each other.

He wasn't so sure what their parents would say if they found out about their secret romance.

Meanwhile, Cupid arrived at her home far above the clouds. She ran into the drawing room and into her father's welcoming arms. "Hi daddy." Cupid said. "Hi princess." Her father, Eros, the god of love, said.

"How was your days at Ever After High?" he asked, as his daughter sat down on the couch in front of him.

"It was splendid, daddy." Cupid said. She thought about all the classes she took, and all the special friends she made – Apple, Raven, Maddie, Ashlynn… and Alistair.

Eros laughed. "I'm glad to hear that. Now you unpack your stuff and we can have dinner."

Cupid went up to her room and unpacked her things – her books, clothes, and the silver frame with the picture of her and Alistair. After emptying out her trunk, she started texting Alistair.

Hey Alistair. I just wanted to let you know that I just arrived home. It's nice to be back, but I'll miss you and everyone else back at Ever After High. Love from Cupid.

She sighed, and sat on her pink and white four poster bed and started reading the MirrorBlog. To Cupid's delight, Alistair replied almost straight away.

Hey Cupid. Ever After High is not the same without you. I'm gonna miss you so much too. Don't forget to text me while you're at home. Lots of love, Alistair

She sighed. Alistair was a great guy. She texted him some more, and lost track of time. She didn't even hear Eros calling her down for dinner. She was startled when he opened the door to her room while she was still texting.

"Princess? It's dinnertime." Eros said.

Quickly turning her MirrorPad off, Cupid said, "Sure, daddy." She saw her father's expression harden for an instant while he looked around her room. But he just shrugged and went downstairs.

Cupid gave Alistair one last text before going down for dinner.

Gotta go for dinner now. Love you, I'll text later
