A/N: Okay I know it's been awhile but I haven't been feeling like doing this story so much. Only two people have voted for my poll, one YES and NO... sooooo I didn't know what to do. This chapter is like I said before more of the here and now, but I don't know what to do from here. So until more people vote I don't know where to go.

Poll: In my story "Saving St. Valentine" should I pair Cupid up with Jack Frost? I want her attitude and personality to fit that of Merida in BRAVE and she had no love interest. But should I pair her with Frost anyway? YES NO

You choose. Also there are pictures of my 'Merida' Cupid on deviantart, downonmyknees is the artist.

Cupid flew high in the clouds, her wings beating fast. She started to make a plan in her head.

1) Find the Guardians

2) Ask for help

3) Save my father and the love of everyone

It seemed like a good plan but with a small problem, she wasn't sure where to go first. She knew her and her father weren't the only ones who worked and lived to bring joy to the people. Cupid usually stayed in her palace and didn't venture out much, her father was a bit protective and Cupid never disagreed. She did however know of Mother Nature; an old friend of her father's, very neutral. The Leprechaun; helped out when asked, lived in Ireland, his accent was similar to her own. And the Boogeyman, Cupid had never actually seen him, but she knew enough from her torturous studies.

She also knew of the big four, the Guardians. Those who were hand picked by Man in Moon himself. As she flew she went over all that she knew of each one in her head.

North St. Nicolas: A former treasure hunter who now was a toy maker for children. Nice man, big heart, full of wonder. Child Alias - Santa Clause. Time of year - December 25th, Christmas.

E. Aster Bunnymund: A fearless member of an extinct pooka culture. Cold and hard on the outside, really kind and soft within, full of hope. Child Alias - Easter Bunny. Time of year - First Sunday in April, Easter.

Toothiana: Also part of an extinct culture, Sisters of Flight. Was a child of a human and fairy. Very beautiful, a true treasure, unconditionally loving, but fierce when necessary. Child Alias - Tooth Fairy. Time of year - All year.

Sandman 'Sandy': Well kept to himself. A warm and soft man, uses sand to communicate. Child Alias - Sandman. Time of year - all year.

Cupid had spent her time in many ways. If she was not practicing she was doing her studies. She thought them frightfully boring at the time, but sometimes her father would make them fun and entertaining. Now she was thankful for her lessons. It wasn't just the fact that she studied and knew these facts, Cupid liked compiling lists about others. It sorta came with her territory, being a matchmaker in training, learning facts about people and who they best fit with.

Thinking back through her list she decided on the Tooth Fairy. The fairy, Toothiana, would be the easiest to find out of them all, she lived in the clouds like her. Cupid flew over Southeast Asia and knew this was where she was known to reside. She flew higher than the mountains and smiled at the familiar sights of the sky. Cupid looked speechless at the literal bird's eye view. The mountains where a great part of the scenery, the sky was a rich pink, the clouds matching the color. In an instant she felt something zoom past her, instinctively she grabbed an arrow and took aim. Then another colorful ball zoomed past. Flying slowly she noticed that they were little winged fairies. Like the cherubs from home these creatures must be helpers, Cupid thought to herself.

Flying closer to the palace she noticed more and more of these fairies. She flew over the ceiling and listened to a hyperactive voice.

"There's another one over New York a canine. Ashley Owens in San Diego oh, it's her last one, take special care of it." The feminine voice seemed to speak on and on without a breath.

Cupid fluttered down to the floor and marveled once again at the sight before her. This palace was much different from hers at home. This palace was of actual stone, not solid clouds. The designs of each palace was beautifully breathtaking, the colors and designs, it was amazing. She looked up and saw the said hummingbird fairy, she was flitting all around. Her little helpers were holding teeth and putting them in little containers that came out of the walls. There was a small globe lighting up.

Soon she heard a squeaking in her ear, she turned to see one of the fairies near her face, squeaking. Then just as soon as she saw it it zoomed away. She thought she saw it next to the actual fairy, squeaking quickly. Toothiana's head shot up and she flew quickly to Cupid, her face a little to close to hers.

"Oh my goodness, you're Cupid?" Her voice was an octave too high for Cupid's taste. Scrunching her face Cupid nodded. Instantly the hyperactive fairy grabbed her hand and shook it vigorously. "I can't believe it, I've never met you. This is really special, your father talks about you but you're always a close to home type of girl aren't you? I'm Toothiana, it's so nice to meet."

Cupid's thoughts flooded together, with the other women's voice speaking a mile a minute, her hand shaking fast, feeling like it would come right off. She had to interrupt her now, she was on a mission and she could not be sidetracked. "Excuse me," she said slightly louder than necessary. Her slight Scottish accent echoed through the walls. The Tooth Fairy looked shocked, then embarrassed, her face a bit flushed. "I'm sorry it's just been a busy week and I'm a little jumpy." She took a deep breathe, her wings stopped and she stood next to the girl. Cupid realized that she wasn't that much taller than her, like herself this fairy seemed to prefer flying over walking.

"It's fine I just, I," she trailed off. Everything that had happened came crashing in on her, this was actually happening, this was real. She and her father were both in trouble, for a moment Cupid felt helpless, her heart dropped to her stomach. Toothiana noticed this in the girl's face and put a hand on her shoulder comfortingly. "What is it?"

Taking a deep breath Cupid closed her eyes and when she exhaled she let it all out. Opening her eyes with her usual fire she looked hard at the fairy. "My father and I need your help."

Jamie walked with Jack to the park, where the others were. Pippa and Cupcake waved at the young boy as he met up with them. "Hey guys," Jamie called.

Claude walked up to the two and high-fived the winter spirit. "Hey Frost."

"Hey Claude," Jack smiled at him, then he looked at the others. "You guys excited for Valentine's Day?" This question gained an instant response. Claude and Caleb did matching gagging motions, Jamie laughed at them. Pippa and Cupcake rolled their eyes at them. And Monty blushed slightly. Jack's smile grew and his eyes gleamed mischievously. "I'll take that as a no?"

That's when it started. "Yeah man, I mean really? It's a stupid holiday, we're too old for that kind of stuff." Caleb started, his face twisted in mock disgust.

Pippa scowled and rolled her eyes. "Yeah, just like we're too old for the Easter Bunny and the Tooth Fairy, HELLO?!" She gestured to Jack. "We fought with them. We're not that old anyway." Cupcake nodded silently in agreement.

"And besides guys, it's not like it's that stupid, right?" Monty asked nervously, kicking at the ground. Claude and Caleb instantly noticed the smaller one's discomfort, perfect to taunt. "Ooh," Caleb started. "Sounds like Monty has a crush on someone," Claude added. They started dancing around the blond one, teasing him.

"Hey," Cupcake's yell made them instantly stopped. All eyes were on her. "Leave him alone."

The guys looked at her, but they did stop. "Come on Cupcake," Jamie started toward the newest member. "Even Jack thinks it's a stupid holiday," he turned toward his best friend. "Right Jack?"

All eyes were glued to him, for a moment Jack forgot where he was, he was just watching the younger ones with amusement. Wow, it definitely was different when the kids actually noticed you. Blinking and shaking Jack cleared his head. Leaning on his staff he looked at the others. "Well," did they just lean? "Yeah, I mean, come on. I think it's just a silly holiday, full of dumb cards and people teasing you so yeah. I don't like Valentine's Day." There was a moment where the two girls looked at each other. Pippa shrugged, "I guess, maybe." She rubbed her arm uncomfortably. "Yeah," Monty agreed.

Cupcake's face scrunched up. "Well fine then, I was gonna give you all something but now I guess I won't." With that she walked away from the group.

"Yo," Claude said, watching their friend leave. "What's her deal?" Caleb finished the question. Jack just shrugged.

The sun was starting to set and he watched as the kids began making their way home. Then it was just him and Jamie. Jack looked down at the child, his first believer. Jamie seemed to be deep in thought, Jack nudged him. "Whacha thinkin' about?" Jamie looked up and opened his mouth, but immediately closed it. Taking a deep breath he spoke. "Jack? Since it's February, that means that spring is only a few weeks away, right?"

Instantly Jack knew what this was about, Jamie was afraid of losing him. He knelt down and looked at his friend. "Jamie, after Easter and the boogeyman, did I leave?" Jamie shook his head. "But that was last year, what if," he paused, as if he didn't want to say it. "What if you don't come back?" Jack looked at the child's face, he saw the glimmer of tears in his eyes.

"Jamie, you have to understand something. I'm not going anywhere, ever. I'll always be here in the winter. In the spring and summer I may not be right here, but like I said before, I'll always be with you here." He touched Jamie's chest where his heart was, then he put the kid in a headlock and mussed up his hair. Jamie playfully pulled away, yelling at him. "Whether you like it or not, I'll always be here for you." Jack let go after a minute and pushed him forward. "Now go home, your mom is probably wondering where you are." Jamie grinned and ran home turning to wave at Jack. Jack smiled and waved back.

He felt the wind blow under him as he flew up to the telephone pole. He took a walk, thinking about what Jamie had said. Jack was honest when he said he would always be there, but would Jamie? Jack felt a pang in his heart. Jamie was just like his sister in so many ways, in fact they could be the same. Jack knew that one day kids stopped believing, Jack dreaded the day when Jamie would no longer remember him. It'll be like he had lost another sibling.

He didn't know how long his mind had been wondering until he saw the familiar golden wisps of sand scattering all over Burgess. He flew up and saw the familiar face of Sandy, who was standing on top of a gold sandy cloud. Jack watched in amusement at the other Guardian's motions. Sandy noticed him and waved, a welcoming smile directed to the newer Guardian. Jack smiled, waving at the Sand Man sending dreams to the children. Realization struck him as he glanced at the stout man.

He had another family, if Jamie ever did forget him...he could handle it.

A/N: So how'd you guys like this? Like I said it was just a filler, but I'm showing more of why Valentine's Day is being ruined. But like I said before I can't continue until my poll is done, first to 5 wins. Come on vote! Or make your other friends vote, do something I need this.
