(Cupid's Dream)
I was walking through the forest to get to a small lake where I was meeting my friend and his little sister to go ice-skating. When the lake was in my field of vision, I saw my friend grab his staff from behind him and hook his sister around the waist then he threw her across the lake. She landed safely on the other side, but the ice under my friend cracked and he fell in. I tried to run towards the lake to save him but my body would not move. Then out of nowhere, a dark silhouette appeared near the hole in the lake, the silhouette put its hand in the hole and pulled my friend out by the neck. Then the silhouette plunged its hand threw my friends chest and ripped out his heart…
(Cupids POV)
JACK! Owe, stupid tree branch! I said while rubbing the spot on my forehead where a small branch above the one I was sleeping on hit me. I looked up at the sky and saw the sun was just starting to rise so I guessed it was around six am. I should head over to Burgess (the town I used to love in when I was a mortal) where a certain single mom was going to meet her true love and I was going to help her realize it.
As I started to climb down the tree, I could not stop thinking about the nightmare I had last night. I have been having the same nightmare since I turned immortal about 300 years ago. I remember that day as if it was yesterday. I died from drowning in a half frozen lake I jumped in trying to save my only friend. That is when the moon saved me … but he did not save the only person who ever cared about me, Jake Overland. Ever since that day I have been so alone, I do not have any believers and every other immortal I know ignores of hates me for some reason. The only thing I have left of him is the empty heart locket he gave me a week before he… drowned.
I would do anything if I could just see his beautiful brown eyes again or hear his wonderful laugh. I also miss how he could always make me smile and how he always made everyone in town laugh and have fun.
I felt tears forming in my pink eyes. I whipped then away with my arm and continued to climb down the tree. When my feet toughed the ground I flapped my wings and headed north towered Burgess.
